ch. twenty-three - A Dream
"She's not perfect, but she's the one I want."

< • >

The two of you talked about the most random stuff as you ate your food. You were smiling like an idiot the whole time because everything was back to normal.

When the two of you were done eating, he walked you home. Before you entered your house, you planted a quick and soft kiss on his cheeks.

"Have a goodnight," you smiled sweetly before him. One thing he could stare at all day. But it isn't obvious, for he is good at hiding his own feelings.

You waited for him to reply, but he was too stunned to do so. After a few seconds, he regained his senses and finally said it. "Goodnight, dream about me, will you?" He jokingly said.

But he truly hoped you would.

"I'll dream about you, then," you let out a dry laugh. "So, I'm going to head inside now. Get home safely," you mumbled in a low tone, to which he nodded in response.

As much as he didn't want to let go of you, he still had to. And you felt the same. You waited for him to walk away, but he didn't. He waited for you to close the door, but you didn't.

"Umm..." you started, trying to ease the awkward tension. "Don't you think it's quite late? It's almost 3 AM. Someone might kidnap you or something!" You said, hoping he would understand what you meant behind those words.

"You want me to stay over? Would that be okay? To Dainsleif, I mean. Last time I went here, he was— well, eyeing me suspiciously." He responded.
