Chapter 6, So Sleepy

William/Vincent's Perspective

I woke up to feel a gentle kiss on my cheek and saw the shy short girl's face above me. I yawned and my eyes formed little tears as I did so. "O-Oh! Hi William/Vincent!" The girl said quickly and blushed. She looked away and I atched as her once happy and relaxed expression turned to a nervous and embarrassed one. I rubbed her back slowly and smiled softly. "It's alright Minty... It was sweet." I said and trailed my hand up to her cheek. I brushed my less than soft hand against her delicate, fragile cheek and turned her head. I easily brushed her mint strands from my face and cupped her red dusted cheek. "A-Are you sure?" She asked and I held her hand with my free hand. "Of course I'm sure." I told her in a gentle tone. She smiled shyly and her once tense muscles relaxed as I petted her cheek. "Are you more comfy now on me?" I asked in a curious tone. She blushed and smiled more. "Yeah." She said and tilted her head. "Why?" She asked and I shrugged slightly. "Just making sure, I'm not good at telling emotions sometimes." I responded and she lifted a brow. I looked away feeling judged and she gently rubbed my hand with her soft, tender skin.

"It's alright to make sure William/Vincent, it's considerate." She said and placed her head on my neck. I swallowed nervously and petted her curls. "O-Ok..." I said and blushed. "I feel like a child, needing you to comfort me and stuff..." I mumbled and she looked up at me with those beautiful eyes I adore. "Just because you aren't perfect and like a little support doesn't mean anything." She told me and I rested my hands on her hips. She began stroking my cheek instead and I panted quietly as her head got closer. I couldn't resist pushing her head down so our lips would connect and closed my eyes. All of my stress and tension disintegrated as I kissed her and she hesitated before kissing me back. I put a hand on the back of her head and the other on her spine, holding her body close to me. She tried to pull away and I kept her close, making her tear up. I noticed and immediately let go of her. "Sorry! Sorry! I'm sorry!" I said repeatedly and she wiped away the small tears in her eyes. "I-It's alright, I just get flighty..." She said shakily and I looked at the ground, guilty. I pulled my hands away from her and she closed off as well.

"...I should go huh...?" I asked and she shook her head slowly. I shakily sighed as she held my hand. "It's ok." She said and sniffled. I smiled weakly and hugged her. "I'm sorry again." I told her and she hugged me back tightly, resting her head on my shoulder. "Don't worry about it William/Vincent." She whispered and I tried to relax. I listened and felt her breathing slow down minute by minute and yawned. "Tired..?" I asked her and she nodded. "C'mon." She said and I sleepily stumbled after her as she led me to her bed. I almost tossed my half-conscious body on and she laid down in my waiting arms. This almost feels like a dream... My thoughts drifted as she pulled up warm sheets and I sighed contently. I felt myself leaving this world and going to dream world, and my mind soon was numb.

Minty's Perspective

I looked at the time once again and dismissed it as stupid numbers. Work isn't for many hours to come. I looked up at the purple man who was already asleep and reached up. I moved a few of the locks of hear loose on his face and smiled warmly. This man is a sweet and nervous man, my man. I watched his tense and sleepy expression soften as I petted his cheek. I wonder why his skin is so rough compared to mine... Maybe he should use lotion. I hummed quietly to myself and thought about the strange man I was laying on and had kinda kissed. I just wanted to so I did... I didn't know he'd get so excited over it. My hand drifted down to his and I blushed a little when I held his hand, thinking about that sudden kiss again. Why did he do that?? Maybe he just wanted to like I did or something.. I won't ask him about it though, he seemed pretty startled and upset about it. I'm always going to give him the benefit of the doubt, because he needs it.

My thoughts started getting lighter and dizzier, and I also felt dizzy because I felt sleepy. I rested my head in his slowly rising chest and smiled to myself when I squeezed his hand a little. I closed my eyes and listened to his heart beat for a few minutes before dozing off to sleep. My man..? What?
