"Promise me," Miss Anna spoke, trapped behind the burning rubble, waiting for her inevitable death. She manages to slip a ring through the cracks, and I take it.
"Promise me you will fight, promise me you will live!"

"I... I promise."

I woke up feeling refreshed, as I haven't had any night terrors. I feel so comfortable laying on something firm but soft.

That 'something' is breathing.

My eyes fly open and I see that I'm cuddling none other than König.

I slowly look over to his masked face, and, thankfully, his eyes were shut.

I sigh and slowly untangle myself from his body, trying not to wake him.
This proves to be futile because he suddenly puts his arms around me, trapping me.

He's still asleep.

I can't lie, it feels nice to be hugged like this, but, since I'm a professional, I have to stop this.

Maybe after a few minutes.

Maybe more.

To heck with it, I'll just pretend I'm sleeping.

After a few minutes I could hear him begin to wake from his sleep. He suddenly jumped up, but because I was on the edge of the bed, I fell on the hardwood floor from him pushing me away.

Thankfully, I didn't land on my hurt arm.

"Ow, König what the hell?"

He looked down at me from the bed.

"Tut mir leid. (*sorry*) I didn't—"
"It's fine. Don't worry about it," no way in hell I'd tell him that I cuddled him first, if anything I deserved this for taking advantage of the moment. But it's not my fault for needing some comfort, right?

He looked down my body and rolled to the other side of the bed, not daring to look in my direction. What's gotten into— oh.

I don't have pants on. He saw my underwear.

I let out a yelp and grabbed the covers, or tried to, since he was tangled up in them.
My pulling on the covers with all my might made him fall down on the other side of the bed.

This is the most embarrassing moment of my life, but I can't stop myself from laughing.

We didn't talk while we got ready to go back to the base. The tension was so thick it could be cut with a knife.

After we got dressed, gathered our stuff and checked out, we went to find our hidden car.

The drive back was quiet too, but I swear he stole some glances at me, and I know this because he caught me staring at him a few times.

"Doc! You're finally done? That was quick," Adam greeted us at the entrance.

König stiffened next to me.

"We have to go, Ärztin." König grabbed my hand, leading me to my lab.

"Actually, general Schneider would like to see you, doc."

I really don't want to talk to that woman.

"Wait for me there, König. I'll be quick."
Adam followed me while König walked to the lab.

"So, how was it?"
"Classified."
"Got it, got it..."

I glance at Adam, intuition telling me to ask him.
"What did you do to my tea yesterday?"
