Vera had intentionally bought a long-distance ticket f so they would have to stay on the train for nearly two days.

Initially, Vera thought it would be a walk in the park.

However, now that Quill was here, she regretted it.

If she'd known, she would've chosen a shorter distance so they could go their separate ways after arriving at the station.

At first, Vera wept constantly as the strange silence surrounded her.

Soon, she fell asleep, exhausted from crying.

Vera had no idea how much time had passed by the time she woke up. The train was still trundling, but the sky was streaked with the colors of dawn. Hence, Vera reckoned she'd slept for several hours.

Her eyes weren't as sore as before, but they were still uncomfortable as she hadn't slept much recently.

Vera blinked but couldn't help closing them again.

After a while, she suddenly felt something was off. Something warm was pushed flat against her

back.

She realized what it was after a moment of thought.

It was... Quill's back.

Vera stiffened at that knowledge.

She couldn't believe he was by her side. How long had he been there? How could she have not noticed at all?

Quill's back was very warm and broad, and it made her feel safe.

However...

"You're up?"

Just as Vera was sorting out her thoughts, Quill's deep voice suddenly rang out behind her. As their backs touching each other's, Vera could feel the soft vibrations as he spoke. He was asking whether she was awake.

However, Vera did not move, lying there silently, not answering his question.
