he inhaled softly, lips slightly parted as if to say something, but he didn’t. he couldn’t. he was in a state of shock. pure bewilderment. but he couldn’t let that show. he hid it well, or at least tried to. not that it would even matter if the other noticed or not. he wished she could see just how (slightly) shaken he was. he wished she could experience the emotions he was experiencing right at that moment.
but she couldn’t.
the night's festivities..... whatever that was had finally caught up with her. she was nonchalant---- still aware of her surroundings, but still less aware of what she was doing.... or saying. blue huffed and licked the corner of his lip before closing them. he eyed her carefully, attempting to see if there was a change in her behavior. wanting to see if she would jump up at any moment, claiming that what she had said was a joke, but she didn’t. instead, there he was, crouched down beside her bed, her hand still on his forearm. hair tousled and partly hanging over.
“please.... stay.”
his gaze softened and a soft sigh passed through his lips, her words tugging at the strings of his heart. it was crazy just how much this woman had an affect on him—- even with everything she had put him through. the love was still there for her, and it was beyond him, really. a small smile graced his features, his eyes crinkling at the corners. at this point, she had finally given up on trying to keep her eyes open.
“no worries,” blue responded.
he watched as her body relaxed, succumbing to the comfort that was her bed. by then, he had already relieved himself from her grasp and ran his fingers through his hair before letting his arms dangle by his side. blue waited for her to get completely settled before adjusting the covers to her liking, softly speaking to himself, but still loud enough for the other to hear----- if she was even remotely conscious, at least.
“im not going anywhere.......”
