@babyitsmagic if you want it!!
belle can’t sleep. merlin is finally home safe and she thought that would fix this whole thing, but no, she still can’t sleep. she slips out of bed and grabs her robe on her way out of her room, pulling it on as she moves through their living quarters as quietly as possible. she doesn’t want to wake merlin, not at this hour. this hour that should stop her from doing what she’s about to do, but doesn’t in the slightest. she steps into the worn boots she keeps by the doorway and makes her way over to nik’s, knocking on the door with what she hopes is the appropriate amount of force to get their attention if they’re awake but not wake them up if they’re already asleep.
