I was thinking of releasing the vision Ominis saw, but it does have spoilers for the ending in it. Not sure if anyone would be interested in that?

—————-

After they got back home, they took time to pick the leaves out of their hair and wash up before heading to bed. A new predicament surfaced, that one of he beds wasn't large enough for three people, so Ominis and Sebastian temporarily moved the two beds together with plans to get a bigger bed in the future.

They got changed, and Diane no longer had to be shy about changing in front of them, though she had to dart out of Sebastian's grip a few times at the sight of her changing. He was insatiable. She chugged a quick potion and crawled into bed, tired after the long day.

They curled up together on the bed, Ominis holding her from behind while Sebastian hooked his legs into hers while facing toward her. It was shockingly comfortable, and she finally felt at ease for the first time in a very long time, safe and protected.

The next morning she woke slowly, opening her eyes to meet dark brown eyes already watching her. Sebastian smiled as he saw her wake up, moving forward to gently kiss her as she first awoke. The kiss made her moan softly, shifting back against Ominis who made a soft chuckle. After Sebatian took his mouth away he looked rather smug, smiling in satisfaction.

"Stole your first breath of the day." He teased softly with a lazy smile.

The statement made Ominis let out a shuddering sound, holding Diane tighter against him as he suddenly got clingy.

"How long have you two been awake?" Diane asked softly.

"A while." Sebastisn admitted.

"And you didn't wake me up?" Diane scoffed in disbelief.

"You look so pretty when you sleep, flower. So peaceful and soft. I would hate to disrupt that. Besides... after the last few days you needed rest."

Well, she couldn't argue with that. She'd literally run across most of the countryside in her mad dash to find Ominis.

The memory made her look over her shoulder to him, blushing when she saw the intense look to his eyes. What was with him this morning? He seemed elated, but also strangely full of fire.

"I was thinking... we're going to be starting school, soon..." Ominis started.

Both Diane and Sebastian sighed in frustration.

"I didn't even get much time. Not fair." Sebastian muttered.

"You'll get plenty of time with us, Sebastian." Ominis chuckled before continuing. "But Diane and I will have to travel back to London to get to the train."

Sebastian made a grumping sound. He didn't like the idea of being left here.

"Did you want to come with us?" Ominis finished.

Sebastian sat up in surprise, looking around Diane to see Ominis. "Seriously?"

"Of course." Ominis rolled onto his back, playing with Diane'a hair between his hands idly. He let his eyes flare with his wand-sight and looked directly to Sebastian with an intense look. "I don't want to leave you behind."

Sebastian felt a bit flustered under the look he gave him, Diane giggling as she saw a flush creep over his face.

"We can sneak you onto the train." She said with an excited smile. "You're so good at sneaking, after all." She teased.

Sebastian let out a soft laugh, looking down to both of them with warm eyes. "I... would really like that, yeah." He said in a soft voice. He had thought he would be left behind again, and that things would somewhat stay the same. After all, it seemed difficult to work a third person into a relationship they already had established for a year. They were making sure to include him in everything they could, though. It meant a lot.
