sleeping together

Intimate nocturnal companionship

Sleeping together is a common euphemism for having sex, especially in the context of a relationship or affair: Are they sleeping together?

The phrase can also mean literally sharing a bed or sleeping space without sexual implication, though context usually makes the intended meaning clear: The kids are sleeping together in the guest room.
