Cover Me

My Special Man Friend ("MSMF") runs hot. Body temp hot. On warm nights my way too hot temps make him melt, so I try to snuggle up as close as I can without catching him on fire.

When we first slip into bed MSMF is fully covered by the flat sheet and comforter, dick pillow wedged tightly between his legs. But as the night creeps along, he tosses and turns, kicking most of the covers off. (For more on the dick pillow, read here: https://thesillyshitwesay.blogspot.com/2020/09/dick-pillow.html)

Usually somewhere in the early morning hours, I'd guess between 3-5, MSMF must get cold. Without fail, if he doesn't immediately feel covers to toss over himself he will wake me and say:

"Hey baby?"

(belligerent grunt sound) "?"

"Cover me..."

I wish ya'll could hear it. It's not a simple statement or demand. MSMF's tone and the way he says "cover me" changes. Like he's going under enemy fire and he may not be coming back alive with some blankets.

I always get a kick out of the request because the fucking covers are literally right there! Like, RIGHT THERE! Piled up along the side of him, left right where they were when he kicked them all off.

Sometimes it's the simple things in a relationship and frankly I love covering him. I pull the sheet and comforter all the way up over his shoulders, tucking him in like a little bug in a rug. And every time I do MSMF lets out a little "mmmhhm". It's the sweetest.

I thought MSMF knew this middle of night blanket abandonment was happening but nope. Turns out he doesn't remember a damn thing. Not one cover up session. When I told him just how funny his ask was and the way in which he asked it, he couldn't believe it.

Now in addition to the cough cough coughs I sometimes like to roll over while turning out the light and say, "Hey baby? Cover me."
