Her advice is met with a small sound of understanding, and he’s silent between her gaming and her observing him.
It’s a little alarming to admit, but he’s perfectly aware of everything she’s doing on sounds alone. And a stray glance here and there–and though he’s relaxed by having her around and to know she’s not working anymore, the thought that she’s looking out for him makes him feel. He doesn’t know how, exactly, but he feels. It’s something that makes his stomach heavy and for time to stretch. it’s so weird.
(It’s even weirder how much he loves and hates the sensation at once.)
When she speaks up again, he actually thinks for a moment before saving progress and actually closing the document. His voice is finally sounding a little tired when he addresses her.
“…Yeah, it’s not actually that hard to wake up and stay awake through the day, but it’s not pleasant. I might as well try to get an hour more of sleep.”
With that, he’s getting up.
“Let’s call it a wrap here. I’ll walk you to your room since it’s close to mine, so shall we go?”
It’s not that close, but it’s a god enough excuse.
it’s a moment before she follows, sitting up straight to simply stare at him. it’s rare that he listens, and she has to wonder if maybe she fell asleep while watching him work. in the end, it doesn’t really matter; dream or no, she’s all too happy to go with him, all too happy that he’s willing to spend just a little more time with her.
though, she doesn’t know what to make of these feelings.
nodding, she gets to her feet, offering him a sleepy smile.
“thank you for...offering to walk with me. i’m sure it’d be a bother if... ...if i fell asleep on the way to my room.”
a small pause as she thinks, slowly beginning on her way.
“although i would hate to be a nuisance to you...”
eyes avert to the ground, fingers idly picking at her skirt. he’s been so thoughtful recently, taking time to care about her and her wellbeing and she can only wonder if all of her quirks and habits are an annoyance. he never acts as such, and does these things willingly, but it’s still more than a small worry to her. she wonders if she really deserves so much kindness from him.
