@regiispruinaeā sent:Ā [ REQUEST ] sender walks into receiverās room hoping to crawl in bed with them. (smol brothers)
Thereās a strike of fear in the young master at the clicking sound of a door unlocking.Ā He shouldnāt be up this late, he knows ( Miss Adelinde made it perfectly clear, and disobedience wasnāt an inherent trait of his ).
Anticipation was a boundary to rest for the youthful mind, however.Ā Haphazard is the frenzied shuffling as he hides under the sheets, feigning sleep and momentarily forgetting to breathe ( a cause of concern for anyone who were to check on him, he might think were he not so panicked ).
...Ā An eye opens ( a grave mistake on his part ), and relief pours into his body with a potency that makes him spring up.Ā Ā ā Ā Shouldnāt you be sleeping ?Ā ā he asks in a quiet rush, though his voice is laced with mirth at the welcome sight of his brother.Ā It was a giddiness and mischievousness only Kaeya could draw out of him.
āĀ ...Ā You canāt sleep either, can you ?Ā āĀ And heās shuffling to the side, making room for the new addition to his lonesome sleepover.Ā Ā ā Ā You know father will be disappointed at us if he finds out we didnāt get enough rest for our trip tomorrow ?Ā āĀ But his legs are already bunched up against his body as arms hugs them closer, readying for a night of hushed rumors and banter.
