[ 𝐝𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐦 ] : receiver hears sender calling their name while asleep. ( for spence in regency? 🥺 )
Spencer had not seen Aly all morning, and at some point, Mrs. Carson had told him that his friend had stayed in her room because she wasn't feeling well. Somehow, Spencer had the unsettling feeling that she was avoiding him. And he had decided to let her be had it not been for his mind wandering to @sunomaly all morning. Spencer couldn't focus on his correspondence or his reading. The young lady was all he could think about. And eventually, it made him brave enough to go to her room and see what was going on. To find out if something between them needed to be addressed.
When his soft knock on her door wasn't answered, he opened it and peeked into the room. The curtains were shut, leaving her space in gloomy light. Spencer looked around and found Aly lying in bed, blanket raised to her chin, sleeping. The view made him feel guilty. He shouldn't be here and disturb her when she might not want his presence. The young man was about to turn and leave when he heard her whisper something in her sleep. His name. Spencer. There was something sad and melancholy in the tone, and for a second, he thought she had woken up and spotted him.
Moving closer, he could see that she was still asleep. She whispered his name again, so he sat on the edge of her bed. "I'm here," he answered her, gently brushing the hair from her brow. "I'm not leaving you, Aly. Ever."
