I'm awakened by a sudden pain in my chest and I proceed to slowly open my eyes, wincing whilst doing so. As my eyes opened I saw the bland white walling that lined the side of my bed that was distinct even in pitch darkness of my room. I gripped my sides with a groan as I turned over in my bed facing the ceiling. My body still ached all over from yesterday and I had the sense this pain wouldn't be going away any time in the foreseeable future. My eyes blinked as I laid there staring up at the ceiling for a few moments before reaching out with my right hand grasping at the ceiling. There was of course nothing for me to grab onto so I instead opted to stare at my bandaged hand for a few moments before letting my hand fall back down to my chest where it remained. Oddly enough I had not recalled falling asleep on the right side of the bed closest to the wall, but it would appear as if someone had pushed me to the side. There was of course only one such person who had access to my room who could do that and as I turned to face my right side I saw said person.

Scathach laid there besides me in bed with her eyes closed as she slept peacefully. Her hands resting firmly on her chest as it rose up and down with her breathing. The bandages put on from yesterday still wrap around her forehead and other various parts of her body. I'm sure Scathach was still exhausted from yesterday and it would be best not to disturb her and let her sleep so her injuries could heal, that and I really didn't want to poke the sleeping bear. However as I brought my wrist up to check my watch I saw that it was already around two o'clock in the afternoon. I lowered my arm back down to my stomach and lay there in silence staring up at the ceiling with only my thoughts to occupy me. The only sounds to fill the void were the subtle sounds of Scathach's breathing only followed by the fan sitting on the nightstand blowing away on us. I continued to lay there taking in the sounds and the cool breeze that hit my skin, it was all what one could call peaceful in my room. Really it was a day when one should rest and recover after the stressful and hectic day that had been yesterday. Normally I was one who would never turn down such a day. Yet for some odd reason or another, I just couldn't relax with this sudden urge to get out and stretch my legs. There was only one problem: Scathach was blocking my only means of exit.
I turned and faced the sleeping bear at my side, while it looked peaceful as it slept, it would become enraged if woken. So in a time like this, all I could do was stare at it in silence. So that's exactly what I did, I fixated my gaze on Scathach's face and kept it on her for the next several minutes. The minutes passed by as I lay there continuing to stare at her, narrowing my eyes at her sleeping face. After a few more minutes ticked by, I began to think that Scathach wouldn't be waking up. However it was then when I saw her eyes appear to wince in her sleep, appearing as if she was having some sort of nightmare. It was a moment later when I saw her crimson eyes emerge as she slowly opened her eyes.
"...What do you want...?" Scathach murmured sheepishly as she kept her gaze forward looking at the ceiling.
"Just waking up?" I asked.
"No I'd rather still be asleep, but I felt this unpleasant stare gazing upon me." Scathach replied grumpily.
"Who knew I could wake her Highness with just a stare." I said.
