"You go to bed too."
"You go to bed too."
"Well it's either I stay up and watch over you, or I go to my own room to sleep." she shrugged, sliding her glasses back onto her face. There was a third option, but she didn't have the guts to mention it.
"You sure that's it?" He looked skeptical.
She sighed, pushing her hair out of her face. "I was going to say or I could sleep next to you if you wanted."
"I-I wouldn't mind that…"
"Y-you wouldn't..?" Her face flushed. "W-well I guess I can then.."
"Y-You don't have to…I won't force you…"
She shook her head and sheepishly smiled. "No it's fine! If you'd feel happier and safer then I'll sleep next to you."
He nods and stands up.
She stood up and slowly closed the door before moving across the room. She sat cross-legged on the bed, shyly smiling, not sure of what to say.
He laid down and sighs. "Thanks…"
"Hey it's alright, this way neither of us will be alone!" She smiled brighter, curling up on her side, facing Alex.
"True." He smiles back.
She reached up, gently ruffling Alex's hair.
What am I supposed to be doing???
He blushes. You like her…Don't you?
She hesitantly took Alex's hand in her own, rubbing her thumb over his knuckles. "Nothing will hurt you when you're asleep. I've got you, and no way is anything gonna get past me!"
Alex was hesitant but nods.
(Hi!)
(Oh hey!! You wanna still continue this??)
(Yep!)
(Okies!)
"Would it help if I turned away? That way you might be able to relax better." Leonie smiled lopsidedly. She didn't want Alex to feel uncomfortable, though with the current situation perhaps being uncomfortable had already been and gone out of the window.
"No…It's fine…" He said sleepily.
"If you say so." she gently rubbed her thumb over his knuckles. "I'll be right beside you if you wake up, you're safe."
He nods slightly. "Thanks."
(Shall we do a small skip to during the night? Perhaps something could happen, like Alex has a nightmare or something? Up to you!)
