Angel stopped shaking him, and placed her hands on the floor infront of her from where she sat. She looked down at her hands, “i cant sleep” she said. Maybe bad dreams.
"Did you have a nightmare?" He asked, guessing that might be one of the reasons she couldn't sleep.
Her wolf ears drooped alittle, and she nodded slightly.
Cooro sat up and put her in his lap so they could talk. "Do you wanna talk to big brother Cooro about it?" He asked, always concerned about her when she was like this.
She looked up at her big brother, “scary lab-coat guys” she said. Thanks alot thunder..
"Oh. Don't worry, Angel. We're in a place they can't get us any more. I'm going to protect you and the mistress will protect us from them." Cooro hugged her as he told her this stuff, trying to make her feel better.
Angel looked down, and for the first time, or atleast one of the few times, she hugged her brother, buried her face in his shirt and began to cry. She hoped he was right.
Cooro held Angel close to himself as she cried. If she was going to cry, he was fine with being here for her.
Angel just sat there and quietly cried. It wasnt like more could be expected though. Being so young and all didnt help. It was like a child falling and scraping their knee, nobody could expect them to suck it up and get over it immediately..and seeing her nightmares were probably far worse then that, it made it all the more terrible.
Cooro wrapped his wings around both of them as usual, continuing to hold her. He didn't think she would get over it really quickly but he was okay with that and expected it. He didn't even really say anything. He just sat holding her, trying to be a source of comfort.
Angel cried for a couple minutes but eventually it came to a silent stop. (mindblank moment)
Cooro looked down at her and smiled. "Feeling any better?" He asked cheerfully.
She nodded. She felt better. Just alittle.
Cooro smiled and continued to hold her. "I'm glad. Do you think you'll be able to go back to sleep now?" He asked, hoping she wouldn't have to stay up all night because she was scared. But if she did, he would stay up with her.
Angel was quiet a moment before speaking up and saying "I could try to." That wouldn't guarantee she would fall back asleep, but the chances she'd stay up long even if she didn't fall asleep imidiatally were slim seeing not many children her she can stand to stay up all day, and 91% of the night.
Cooro let go of her and lied back down. "Well, go ahead and go back to bed then. If you get scared, wake me up again." The boy closed his eys after wishing her a good night's sleep and drifted into his own dream filled slumber.
She nodded and returned to where she had been sleeping previously before the nightmare had scared her. She lied back down and covered up. She closed her eyes, and tried to drift back to sleep.
After another hour or so, Grace yawned and looked around at everyone else. "Well, I think we should all go get some sleep. Goodnight everyone." Grace exited the kitchen and walked up the stairs leading to the second floor. When she got upstairs she opened the door to the room and climbed into bed.
Aiko looked over at Grace when she yawned. Then come to think of it, it was pretty late. Man where had the time flown to? He watched as she began to walk off, and he followed behind her. He always seemed to follow. He followed her up the stairs to the second floor, went and got changed, then went to the mistress's room.
By the time aiko had gotten back to Grace's room, Grace had already gotten into bed and fallen asleep next to myandra. When aiko and Grace had left the kitchen, everyone else left and went to bed as well.
