Alita blinked, looking down at him. "He.. really thinks that.. but why would he.." she thought, one hand slowly reaching for the veil covering his face. She snatched her hand back roughly, climbing up into her own bed before she could try to do anything else she wouldn't want to do. "I will be patient... he will tell me eventually.. but what did he mean that some of us arent blessed in that way.. He is so nice... why would it matter if he isn't good looking.. that's no reason to hide his face..."
She curled up in the bed, and tried to go to sleep, but a cold breeze blew in through the window, cutting through the thin blanket and her fur. She shivered there for several minutes, hoping that te wind would stop, but it didn't. She did the one thing she could think of doing at that point. She took her blanket off of the bed, and climbed down again.
"I hope he doesn't mind... but there is no way I am going to be able to sleep in here.. alone..." she thought as she slipped in underneath his blanket, and draped her's over both of them, carefully putting her arms around Darky from behind as she lay down.
The gentle warmth of their bodies beneath the two blankets was enough to make her sleepy again as she closed her eyes, her breathing deepening, and growing more steady as she drifted off to sleep.
