*He stopped, then, letting his hand rest on her shoulder*
"I wouldn't presume to tell you what to do with it."
*Oh, but she had to go ruin it by saying that*

*She finally met his eyes.*
"Thank you."
*Somehow, it was alright when he touched her hair, and the rest of her. She knew deep down that she should be afraid, but she wasn't.*

*On an impulse, he leaned in and left a kiss on her forehead*
"You needn't fear me."
Somewhere, his suethor was trying not to die laughing at those words

*She turned pink again.*
"Except for the part where I should."
"I trust you." *She said softly.*

*She met his eyes for a second. Her eyelids were drooping and she was resisting the urge to yawn.*

*She leaned back and turned on her side, and it didn't take long for her face to uncloud and her breathing to even in a deep, untroubled sleep. Her cheeks were still a little flushed and her hair fanned across the pillow, though it got mussed when she unconsciously turned onto her other side.*

*Well, it was getting a bit easier to interact with her. Granted, she still did things that threw him off, but in all honesty it was part of her charm. A rather delicate balancing act, this game. Challenging.
