Christian got down on one knee and whipped out a ring that had appeared out of thin air from his pocket. "I know this is not romantic at all, but Bella, will you... marry me?"

*Belladonna gasped, her huge eyes filling with tears* Oh my God! Yes! Oh my God, yes!*tackles him*

--Syd's eyes opened.
A strange numbness fell over her as she lay there completely still. She neither blinked nor moved nor breathed...

Christian's grin spread until he thought his mouth would rip. He lifted Bella up in his arms and twirled around with her. Then he put her down again and remembering that he could not kiss her, embraced her tightly.

*Bella held onto him tight, burying her face in his shoulder*

When at last Christian pulled away, he softly told her, "Go and get some rest. You must be tired this late at night."

*Bella smiled* I"m fine, it's you I'm worried about. Get some sleep. I'll come by tomorrow. *Without waiting for an answer, she gave him a quick kiss and limped off back to the dormitories*

Christian held up a hand silently to wave her good-bye. When she was out of sight even though it's already pitch black in the hallway, Christian turned and headed back inside his room. Again, he thought he saw yellow eyes staring at him. He shuddered and quickly entered and shut the door.
Christian sat down on his chair and looked at Syd. She seemed to be peacefully asleep.

Syd shut her eyes the second he stepped in and pretended to be asleep once again.
She could feel his eyes on her...
Syd simply stayed still and waited for him to fall asleep.

Christian exhaled softly and looked up at the ceiling. Then almost instantly, he was asleep.

After hearing his breathing deepen, she opened her eyes again and stared at a spot on a wall for some time...
Then, with a sigh, she sat up on the bed and looked at him sleep, again swallowing back emotions.
Syd took the coat off from the bedpost and put it on, got off the bed and walked towards the door-- but stopped when she heard him cough. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath, not turning back... Clenching her jaw, she finally turned.
Quietly, Syd walked over to the bed, and took the pillow from it. She then took off her already warm coat, gently placed it over him, lifted his head, and quietly placed the pillow under his head.
Briefly, she ran the back of her hand against his cheek and walked out of the room...

Christian awoke the next morning, a bit stiff here and a bit sore there, but fine nonetheless. He yawned and stretched his arms in the air. In doing so, the coat that was on him fell to the ground in a crumpled heap. Christian crouched down and picked it up. "Whose--?" His mind flashbacked to the previous night. "Sydney's," he answered himself.
Christian looked to the bed where Syd would have been, asleep. Only a wrinkle in the bedsheet indicated that someone had slept in it during the night. "I wonder where she's gone..."

"What can I do?" Christian muttered to himself. "I can't leave this room to return it to her." Sighing, Christian ran a hand through his hair which was in sexy disorder and hung Syd's coat on the chair. He plopped down on his bed.
