The girl in his arms suddenly shifted her head, turning from face–down to resting her face against his stomach. George quietly sighed in relief.

Only then did he dare to look down at her.

Carefully, he brushed the hair away from her face and saw that her eyes were closed, her breathing steady -she was clearly falling asleep.

So, he stayed still and served as her pillow.

As her breathing grew deeper and more regular, George’s tense body gradually relaxed. He gazed at her peaceful sleeping face, his eyes softening, and smiled gently.

He watched her sleep.

Isabelle slept for a little over an hour before waking up. She had slept relatively well, but not deeply, after dreaming of Storm Shadow.

When Isabelle opened her eyes, her mind was blank for a moment until she heard George’s concerned voice above her. He asked, “Did you have a nightmare?”

Isabelle didn’t respond immediately. After a moment, she asked, “Did you stay here last night?” Her tone was neutral, as it usually was.

George replied, “Yes.”

“Did you sleep at all?” Isabelle continued.

“No,” George said.

Isabelle moved off his lap and returned her head to the pillow. She turned her back to him and said, “Get some sleep.”

“I should probably go to the other room,” George suggested.

“Stop being so fussy,” Isabelle murmured with her eyes closed.

Finally, George took off his shoes and lay down on the bed, still dressed.
