◟midnight melody — ❀ yn&hs.◝
knock knock, @ryheosoo!
hm? these weren’t her sheets. slowly, yena came to her senses - and peeked out through a pair of lazy eyelids. where was she again? when she didn’t recognize her surroundings immediately, she lost her breath for a split moment; but she quickly recalled it all. there’d been a party. she’d gotten a headache, so she was granted a bed to sleep in until it passed. what time was it? she turned over to squint over at the badly lit clock on the bedside table. midnight? goodness. she should get home; this wasn’t very ladylike of her. it didn’t sound like anybody was still going at it downstairs - maybe they moved to another location. that wasn’t rare. gradually, the duchess sat herself up and made her way out of the bed. she roughly fixed her hair and adjusted her askew dress before taking a hold of her little clutch. hopefully she wouldn’t run into anyone on her way out; she felt like a mess. wait, what was that? there was a faint melody - a piano? - coming from somewhere not too far away. choosing to investigate this further, she went out into the hallway quietly. there, from a door set slightly ajar - came a gorgeous sound. yena gravitated towards it. she stood right outside; listening to the entire song without ever seeing who was playing. had she always been this sensitive? she felt like crying. “that was beautiful,” she muttered once the music stopped; not noticing she said it out loud.
