He wasn’t in a hurry to see her back to bed so he could be on and about his business. He could have already been back in bed half asleep again but he wasn't. He stayed with her, an infallible pillar for her to lean on as she caught her breath and recovered from the excitement. Recovered from the shameful reaction she had. She was already breathing better, her skin was no longer burning, and she felt almost as good as when Roman had wrapped her up in his arms and held her close on the bed. This was really amazing though, she wasn’t sure she had ever seen so many stars before. The worst part of it was right outside her door!
Roman shifted slightly and rested his cheek upon her crown as he assured her that he wouldn’t have left her in the space she was in. Lilith had hardly been able to control herself as the overwhelming feeling took its toll and she’d reacted poorly. Roman showed her his true self, he’d stuck with her even through the terrible part of her life. Even with her weakness and shortcomings here he was, offering himself in support as she struggled. He told her he couldn’t have left her in a state like that, gasping on the floor. "I know, but I want you to know I appreciate it.” she told him softly as she leaned a little heavier against his shoulder.
She took in the sky alongside him as he told her about the night. She had just always been in the habit of sleeping not long after the sun disappeared under the horizon. Then he gave her another glimpse into his own life. How when he was a boy he would sit by the ocean and use the gentle sound of the waves to lull him to sleep. There weren’t many times when she had trouble sleeping, except for when her sickness was really flaring up and she couldn’t breathe. "Do you still feel insomnia?” She asked him quietly, wondering if he had snuck into her room because he hadn’t even been able to sleep.
He curled his tail around her hips and she felt a little more cozy in his embrace, it wasn’t so intense as his grasp in the bed. Honestly the moment she was in right now was perfect. His warmth was gentle and comforting, as well as the loose hold. She felt free but so safe and… loved at the same time. She giggled as he reminded her that this was indeed her balcony. She could do whatever she wanted. "I could, but I’m usually asleep.” She told him with a grin, but felt an idea pop into her head.
"What if we went camping?” She asked him quietly, suddenly imagining her father and Artorias out on the road when they had been visiting all the packs. "With a campfire, and the stars, and staying up as long as we wanted.” Her voice took on a dreamy tone, but she wasn’t in danger of falling back asleep, just getting lost in the vision that danced behind her eyes.
"Speech"
