[ spring had always been the best time for naps outside, whether it be basking in the warm sun or lying under a tree; it didn't matter to brianna, just as long as she could fall into a light slumber before going home. but today she had dazed and wandered off from her last lesson after being excused to use the restroom, almost forgetting completely on why she was out of her classroom to begin with.

a large tree a few yards away from the school itself was one of her favorite spots. the petals that were freshly bloomed were tinted in pinks and light reds, staining the lush, green earth that she was currently spread upon. her body was half-curled yet open enough to seem as if she were just lying there and nothing more, but she was in a deep slumber, her breathing even & her lips slightly parted.

it was there that she unknowingly waited for her prince to come. ]

[ curls her own hands around his gently, nodding once so that she closes the distance between them. ]

Me too.

[ blinks in affirmation. pulls away after a moment, letting go of one of her hands to comfortably tug her along with the other. ]

[ follows along in a comfortable pace, taking a quick glance towards the direction of the doctor's study in the corner of her eye. thinks about going back later, though isn't sure of herself due to albert's request so she lets the thought go quickly, having more important things to think about for now. ]

[ tugs her along until they are in his room. lets her hand go so that he can slip into bed & wiggle under the pillows, having already decided that he would not waste time changing into something more comfortable, afraid that the fears would return.

cranes his head slightly to look at her from the corner of his eyes, ready to jump out of bed in case she changes her mind. ]

[ stays in place & waits patiently for him to get situated. it is only when he looks at her that she tugs on her outfit to take it off, the slip underneath her clothing staying in place. folds them neatly and sets them aside, slowly making her way on over to the bed and crawling in.

shifts a bit to get comfortable, leaning on her side so that she could look at albert. does not speak for now, though, instead sliding the back of a hand to lightly touch one of his own in reassurance. ]

[ smiles at her in thanks, snuggling a bit closer so that his forehead is almost tucked against her collarbone. closes his eyes & breathes in, out. voice comes out soft, just barely above a whisper. ]

... are you still going to be here? When... when I wake up?

[ stares at the top of his head for a beat or two, lifting her hand to stroke the back of his neck fondly, affectionately. ]

Yes, Albert. I will be here.

Okay.

[ curls his hand around hers & then concentrates on counting the sheep in his mind, eventually falling into slumber. ]

[ when his breathing evens she closes her eyes for a moment, pressing her forehead upon his head, inhaling & exhaling slowly. she does not sleep, however, finding it easy to do as she concentrates on keeping her promise, knowing that she will not drift off in order to be there--aware, awake--for him when he finally rises from his slumber. ]
