Arkos Diary Entry 1: Sleep Walking

Credit to Becca for the opening, and Emily for the cheesy description.

Jaune Arc slightly shifted in bed as he felt the warmth of the comforting morning sun. His eyes slowly opened and before him was the red-haired goddess, Pyrrha Nikos, who laid there next to him with his hand completely encapsulated by both of hers.

"Pyrrha?" He thought.

Her red hair was illuminated by the autumn sunlight streaming through the window just behind her, creating a halo of light over her head, making her look angelic. They got so much closer as friends that he sometimes forgot she was the renowned Pyrrha Nikos- a beautiful and fierce huntress in training. But, he failed to notice her wrapping her arms around his neck and pulling him into her chest as if he were a teddy bear; well, in this case, bunny rabbit. His face was bright strawberry red. He had never been close to a girl like this before. What if she woke up any second now? Would she hit him for thinking he was a pervert?

He tried to gently pull his face away from her chest, but to no avail, as she pulled him into her chest harder placing his head gently and firmly there. She was too strong for him to escape her grasp. His face felt hot as he could feel her warm chest rub up against him; this was a first for him. How long until she wakes up? Will he even have a moment to explain himself? Where are Ren and Nora when he needed them Pyrrha gently wrapped her legs around his keeping him there for good.

He was frozen and didn't know what to do as he quietly shrieked.

Pyrrha slowly opened her eyes and gave a small yawn. She stretched her arms out slowly. When she returned her hands to Jaune's head she stopped as she felt his light blonde hair brush her fingertips. Pyrrha immediately looked down meeting Jaune's sapphire blue eyes with his head smushed right up against her chest. Her eyes lit up with surprise and embarrassment.

"I'M SORRY!!!" She yelled, pushing Jaune away from her immediately.

Jaune put his arms up to protect himself, held his breath and braced for the next impact.

However, Pyrrha gently moved his arms away from his face. He stared at her with a slack-jawed dumbfoundedness plastered on his face.

"Aren't you gonna hit me?" he asked.

"What, No!" she exclaimed.

"But, I invaded your personal space,"

"Well..." Pyrrha's words drifted.

She was at a loss for words. She was embarrassed so much so that she couldn't muster the strength to tell him that she actually was glad this worked. The thought made her blush a bit. She really wanted Jaune to know her feelings for him and unfortunately, her attempts so far had made progress, but they didn't feel enough for him to realize them.

"Uh, Pyrrha?"

"OH, uh yes, Jaune?"

"You were saying.....?" he asked, motioning for her to continue.

"Oh, right, well......um......hmm......"

Pyrrha couldn't figure out where to start.

For once she was drawing a complete blank on how to excuse what happened just now. Nothing she came up with made sense. If she told him she accidentally fell asleep beside him then that wouldn't explain the intentional hand grabbing. She was running out of time and she had to say something soon with Jaune's confusion growing with her silence.

"Perhaps, a bizarre case of sleepwalking?" she proposed.

Jaune stared at her blankly for a solid minute. Out of all the things he'd heard her come up with, this one took the cake for the oddest. But, then he thought about it; he had some pretty weird sleepwalking stories too.
