He smiled in his sleep as he felt her curl up against him, he drifted into a deeper sleep, feeling safe, knowing that Shie was with him.<br/><br/>The next morning, he woke up to the sounds of a village in full motion of the day, they had slept in quite late, all of the other villagers were already going about their business, he kept quiet and held onto Shie as she slept, not wanting to disturb her. He observed her as she slept, she looked as beautiful as she did when she was awake and so peaceful as well. He moved a lock of hair away from her eye and then settled back down and closed his eyes, enjoying the peace he felt inside of him and the happiness of being there with Shie.
