I could not sleep. My mind was buzzing with chocolate and of what I said. But most of all, I could not calm myself down with chocolate sleeping in the same room as me. I could hear his gentle breath going in and out.

I silently crawled out of my bed and knelt down beside his.

I stared at him. He has really stunning features.

With my hand, I gently brushed a strand of hair from his face.

"Can't sleep?"

I jumped.

It was chocolate talking. His eyes were closed but he obviously wasn't asleep either.

"I-I suppose so." I said, fiddling with my hair as a single strand went into my nose. "ACHOO!"

I covered my mouth in embarrassment.

That was such a loud sneeze! I didn't wake father up, did I?

"Heheh." Chocolate chuckled as he opened his eyes at me. "Are you cold? Come here."

"I-I couldn't possibly-" he pulled me under his blanket.

My heart was pounding. I noticed that his heartbeat wasn't that far behind either.

"Chocolate...." I muttered, "...chocolate."

"Yes?" He said in his sweet voice.

"Nothing. I just wanted to say your name."

I've never felt another person except for my parents cherish me as much as chocolate is at this moment.

I buried my face into his chest.

I could feel chocolate softly caressing me and I held him back.

Soon enough, I fell asleep.
