Oh well, couldn't say he didn't try.
The kiss though took him a bit by surprise. Part of him wanted it to last just a little bit longer. But she was right. He was still pretty tired himself, it had begun to creep back up on him.
"Ahhh no fun." He waited until she had situated herself before he wrapped bis arms around her. Burying his nose in her hair once again before he kissed the top of her head. "Sleep well, Harlow." His body began to relax instantly as sleep beckoned to him. Zascha's breathing became softer as he slipped right back into him dreams.
What waited for him there was nothing like this though. It was much worse.
