Opening the door, he made his way through the hallway, passed the kitchen and into the living room. All that commotion that was made was just her making a little place to rest, blankets and pillows on the floor. She had pushed the couches out of the way to make more room. "Couldn't sleep?" He questioned looking down at Daisy and Sumo who were both laying down with her, approaching the three of them calmly.
"No, the beds too soft..." she told him with a tired laugh, turning over onto her side. "Yeah I know, can't sleep either." He said, although it wasn't because of the comfortable bed, it was because he couldn't stop thinking about her. "I tried to make it like how it was in the forest." Even though it looked nothing like it, Tom appreciated the attempt. Then he found nothing to say, so he looked around, trying to ask her if he could lay down with her.
Apparently she had read his mind. "You can lay down if you want." Juliet suggested moving over to give him some room. It occurred to him that she moved over so her could lay down right in that spot, right next to her, under the same cover. Now that he remembered, he hadn't laid that close to her since being stuck in that old car. It made him nervous but he wasn't going to turn her down because he really didn't mind.
So he hesitantly made his way to her and laid in that spot, going under the covers with her. To get over his nervousness, he shifted to lay on his side, just like her, so now they were facing each other. "Sumo likes it here so I think he would rather stay with me. He wouldn't have followed you back into the room." Juliet stated "yeah, thanks for practically stealing my dog." He said with a roll of his eyes, letting out a chuckle.
"Are you just going for your brother, or is there more?" She questioned out of the blue, she was just very curious and she had been thinking about asking him for a while. She knew how reserved he was about his personal stuff. "My mom and dad." He told he, which was easy to tell her, before it wasn't so easy to talk to her bout this stuff. "That's nice..." Juliet remarked with a smile, she didn't know who her parents were, it didn't bother her at all though, She liked knowing that she was just her own person.
"You love them?" She asked, although he thought it was a clear answer, but she didn't really understand it. "Of course." He told her with a small glare, like he was trying to see her thoughts. "How though?" That questioned caught him off guard, he didn't know what she meant by that. "What?" Was all he said. "Like how do you know you love them? What does it feel like, or how do you show them you love them."Juliet elaborated getting a bit fusgraded since she couldn't explain herself properly.
"I just know it's not that hard, and it just feels...I don't know, comforting I guess. And you just hug them, kiss them, protect them, go after them when they get taken away. That's a weird question." He confessed with a lighthearted chuckle. "Hmmm that's...weird." She said Turing to think about everything that he had said. "Didn't you love your parents or something?" Tom questioned, but she shook her head "I don't know them, you can't love someone you don't know, and they're dead by the way." By the way she said it, it sounded like she didn't care at all about that.
