bedmates

Those sharing sheets

Bedmates are people who share a bed.

The term usually implies a sexual relationship but can describe anyone who sleeps in the same bed: The children were bedmates until they got separate rooms.

Figuratively, bedmates are unlikely allies or associates: Politics makes strange bedmates.
