I got of the shower. I opened the bathroom door and the warm steam spread around my hotel room. I glanced at the couch where I left my blanket. I didn't have any Light on except in the bathroom so it looked like there was someone laying there. It's actually amusing that even the blanket managed to look like you.

After I convinced you to stay you were spacing out in the couch and watched TV. I saw how hard you were fighting against the sleepiness. But every time I suggested that you should go to bed you just replied "But I'm not tired. I'm just trying to clear my head so we can play something again". I gave up and went to the shower. When I go tout of the shower you had fallen asleep on my couch. I made my way to you as quietly as possible. You were sleeping soundly. Your cheeks were tinted with a shade of pink and your nose were crunched a bit. You looked so peaceful, almost like nothing in the world could shake you. At that moment I realized how much I wanted to protect you. I placed a small peck in your forehead. Your lips curved into a smile. But soon the smile faded because you fall deeper in your slumber of sleep.I picked you up in a bridal style and made my way to the bedroom as silently as possible. A small whine escaped your lips as I placed down. For a good moment I stared your sleeping face. Then I turned around trying to leave the room. But you grabbed my wrist "Don't go. Please, sleep with me here" Slowly I turned around "You know I can't do that" You opened your eyes and they were glimmering with small tears "Please don't leave me" You whispered. You sounded so small and lonely "Fine. I'll just stay here until you fall asleep" I sat down next to you and stroked your hair gently. "Please sing for me" Your mumble was almost inaudible. "What do you want to hear?" I asked a bit insecure."Please sing winter bear" And so I started to sing for you. Your eyes were slowly closing and your breath came steady. "I want to stay with you, but I can't because you're not mine.." I smiled sadly "I love you." With those words I pecked your forehead once more before leaving the room.

I hummed in amusement. Maybe I should really go to sleep before I contact you.
