Amelia didn’t stir.
“From that yawn, it seems your restlessness is waning. Get some rest. I’ll leave you be and… fiddle around with something. Probably eat too. Just don’t wiggle around too much, this way you don’t upset those wounds,”Boris said.
He then left the room.
Keigo sighed and laid back down, pulling the blanket up and snuggling a pillow in replacement for Amelia.
A while later, Amelia woke up. She had no idea what time it was, nor did she care. She looked over at Keigo, smiling softly.
Keigo was sleeping again, still snuggling his pillow. His chest rose and fell with shallow breaths.
She couldn’t help chuckling at bit at how he was snuggling a pillow. She watched him for a long while.
Keigo woke about an hour after Amelia. At first he fought to wake up, gripping softly onto the pillow, but eventually he opened his eyes.
“Hello, love. You feeling any better?”Amelia asked softly.
“ mmm, not really but it's as good as it's going to get.” he said softly
“I suppose so. Well, while we’re here, waiting impatiently for your wounds to heal, if there’s anything you want to ask me, go ahead. We’re in my, rather barren, lair, so why not?”Amelia said, chuckling a bit.
“ there's one thing but the thing I need for it is sitting in my room sooo,” he said not giving her any hints.
Amelia stared at him a moment, a bit confused.
“What thing do you need? I could have Bull fetch it, if he’s not too busy,”Amelia asked.
“ I don't want anyone else seeing it. “ he said softly and tried to sit up again. He took in a deep breath and shuddered out a pain-filled breath. He held his wound. Not to tight but enough to try and ease the pain.
“Here, I keep a stash of extra pillows in one of these cabinets,”Amelia said, concerned.
She stood and searched for the pillow stash, eventually finding it and pulling out several pillows. She then gently helped Keigo sit up, putting the pillows behind him to prop him up.
“Better?”she asked, sitting down next to him.
“And what does this thing look like? Where is it at?”she added.
“ I'm not telling you, and yes it's a lot better “ he said with a laugh. Keigi smiles warmly at Amelia
Amelia smiled back, snickering at his secretiveness.
“So, how are you going to ask this question of yours? Or are we both just going to have to wait until you’re better so you can get this thing from your room?”she wondered.
“ we’ll have to wait until I can drift back across,” he said with a sly smile.
Amelia giggled.
“Damn you. Playing the suspense card now. And now I’m going to be even more impatient for you to heal,”she said jokingly, grinning.
Keigo suck his pierced tongue out at her, “ I will not give you a single hint until then either so don't try and get it out of me. “ he said happily
Amelia stuck her tongue out back at him, then laughed.
“I might have to try at least once, but I’ll spare you for now,”she said playfully, snickering.
Keigo laughed “ okay love, but trust me when I say you won't want spoilers. “ he said and smiled.
Toaci woke the next morning to still being in Johnathan's room, he trilled a happy little call and went over to Johnathan.
“‘Won’t want spoilers’. Okay, this is getting even more intriguing by the minute. Damn, and I still have to wait,”Amelia said, snickering.
She sat there a moment, thinking deep and trying to figure out what this thing could be. Her mind blanked. She laughed.
“Damn. Now I can’t decide if I want to question you or not,”she said, giggling.
Jonathan woke to Toaci’s call. He smiled and gently petted him.
“Hey there. Ya love hanging out with me, do ya?”he asked drowsily.
“ beta up!” he squawked and bobbed his head up and down.
Keigo laughed a little “ trust me you'll love it” he said softly and took her hand in his.
Jonathan laughed.
“I hear ya. I’m getting up,”he said.
Jonathan sat up and yawned, brushing his fingers through his hair.
Amelia smiled warmly, curling her fingers around his hand.
“I bet I will. It is going to nag at me though. Heal up quickly, so I won’t have to wait so long,”she said with a giggle.
Keigo smiled softly “ ill try my damnedest to heal quickly”
Toaci was looking around for his bowl. Pecking at the bed every so often. Once Johnathan was up and moving toaci took off to keigos door and paced it.
Amelia giggled, smiling wide.
Jonathan quickly realized what Toaci was wanting and followed him. He then looked around for his food and water bowls, checking that they had enough of both in them.
“Sorry if I’m doing this wrong. My first time, uh, feeding a bird,”Jonathan said to Toaci.
He sat down on the edge of the bed and looked around. He appreciated the simplicity of Keigo’s room. It was definitely less hectic than his own. He then turned back to watch Toaci.
