He felt his eyes clench further as they were close, his teeth girt together to show his anger but as he came back from his fog, he opened his eyes to find himself at the side of her bed. Her peaceful face in deep sleep, right in front of him. It took him by surprise at how soundly he slept beside her.
He never moved, his hands under his head acting as his pillows as he had leaned on the edge of the bed while he sat over the chair beside the legs of her bed. He continued staring at that beauty for what seemed like an eternity. He never flinched when she moved to find a better position letting the sheet fall down her shoulder.
He stared at her small frame as the fur sheet engulfed her body completely.
He found her shifting her head and facing him, her closed eyes right in front of his.
