Amyntas glares at her, then rolls his eyes and turns onto his side.

Ariella flopped back on the bed. "What do you wanna do now?"

He huffs, “Lay here…” He mutters.

Ariella sighed. She supposed they coukd. She had dragged him around everyone for a bit. She rolled over and softly placed her arm around his middle. "Alright. Just for a little bit."

Amyntas sighs, “More like the rest of the day…”

"No, we won't stay here all day. Just for a bit. Then you can show me around the palace."

Amyntas sighs, “Mother or father can do that…”

"But I'd rather it be you." Ariella gave him a small squeeze.

Amyntas sighs, “Whatever…”

She smiled. "Thank you." She pressed her face against hos back, curling around him as of she was trying to protect him.

Amyntas sighs. He was stiff…very stiff. Even as he relaxes slightly, Ella could feel his stiff back and shoulders.

Ariella stroked his belly, nuzzling into him.

Amyntas seems to tense more. He gently moves her hand from his stomach.

Ariella simply placed her hand on his chest as he moved it then.

Amyntas sighs, then closes his eyes. He felt mentally, and physically exhausted at this point. He slowly starts dozing off into a light sleep.

Ariella just gently stroked his chest with her thumb, relaxing against him.

After a while, Amyntas jumps awake, yelping. “GET THE FUCK AWAY FROM ME!”

Ariella jumped away from his body, scared. She had been half asleep when he had shouted.

Amyntas looks around, whimpering. Fear clouded his eyes, along with tears. Amyntas whines and curls in on himself, sobbing.

"Amyntas? It's me, Ariella. What happened?"

He keeps sobbing and shaking uncontrollably. “Leave me alone…” He whines.

"Please, talk to me." She was on her knees in front of him, not touching him no matter how much she wanted to hug him.

“No…leave me alone…”

"Amyntas please." She was leading with him. She didn't want to leave him alone like this.

Amyntas whimpers. “No…go away…”

"I'm not leaving you like this." Ariella said.

Amyntas shudders, sobbing harder.

"Please talk to me. Tell me what's going on Amyntas. Let me help you."

Amyntas whimpers, “NO! LEAVE ME ALONE!”

Ariella flinched back. She moved across the bed to give him some room. She didntbwant to leave him alone.
