Bonnie gave Ivor a sidelong glance and raised her eyebrows even higher.
“Something smells fishy…”
“Do you need more room? How about I move further inside?” He pretended not to understand what she was saying.
She yawned again, and her eyes were barely open right now.
She was so exhausted that she couldn’t be bothered with everything else. Moreover, he probably couldn’t do anything in his current state. So, she agreed to it.
“Alright. I catch a nap here, then.”
Then, she warned him. “Don’t take advantage of me, Ivor. Otherwise, I’m going to fly back to Pyralis first thing in the morning.”
“Who do you think I am, Bonnie? Do you have any idea how tired you are now? Why would I do anything to you in this state?”
‘Is it me, or is she that distrustful of me?’
She scoffed lightly in response. “No one knows what you might do. I’m giving you a fair warning nonetheless.”
“Alright. Okay.” He smiled helplessly. Raising his hand, he swore, “I give you my word that I won’t lay my grubby paws on you so you can have a good rest. Is that good enough for you?”
“Fine.” She responded. Then, she got onto the bed and laid down comfortably. She welcomed the soft sensation the bed provided, as well as his familiar scent.
