"So," She started, draining the rest of her drink before setting the empty container back on the bar, "When we leave, are you just going to drop me off and go home or not?"

"No. I'm going to keep an eye on you until you get some shut-eye to make sure you don't do anything stupid." He grabbed the drink that the bartender slid to him, passing over the money as he did so. He handed the drink to Jynna. "Your beverage, milady."

She giggled slightly and took the drink with a nod, "Thank you my Prince, remind me to pay you back later for the drink."

"It's on me, so no need." He looked around the cafeteria-like area and back down to the beautiful girl in his arms before him. "Hey, you wanna go someplace quieter?"

"Sure," She agreed, her turquoise blue eyes scanning the space before she looked up at him, "Somewhere quieter sounds nice right now."

He smiled and kept an arm around her waist as he led her through the building. They walked away from all the cheers, deeper into the building. Soon enough, there were so many walls separating them from the fights that the screams were muffled.
They entered a cozy room with cushioned chairs and a single sofa seated around a coffee table. A simple but elegant rug covered the floor beneath the furniture, protecting the polished hardwood floors.

"This place is nice, and quiet like you said,' Jynna said with a smiled as she looked around the new space, starting on her second drink.

"I've stayed true to my word for once. Be happy," he said with a smirk. He escorted her to the sofa, then sat down.

She gladly walked with him to the couch and sat down beside him, setting her drink down on the coffee table so she could relax.

He raised a brow at the drink. "I specifically brought us here for you to drink in peace," he said, his tone amused.

“I’ll drink some more in a few minutes,” Jynna replied, waving a hand in dismissal towards the drink, “Right now I’m just enjoying the quiet.”

"Mmm," he hummed. He tilted his head back to rest it on the back of the couch, eyes closing. He, too, needed some peace and quiet for some time.

She pulled her legs up and crossed them on the couch, reaching out carefully to grab her drink as she did so. Drink in hand, she leaned back against the couch as well.

He tried his best to not fall asleep. He really did. But once he got comfortable in a room full of silence, his brain just switched off and he was out like a light. Thankfully, he wasn't a snorer. Maybe Jynna wouldn't notice that he was sleeping.

When he fell asleep, she really didn't notice right away. Her focus was on the dwindling amount of her drink left in her glass, eventually just causing her to shrug and down the last gulp. "Well Rhydar, I'm ready to go when you are." She said, putting the glass down and leaning against him. She still hadn't noticed he was asleep.

He unconsciously wrapped an arm loosely around her, his lips parted slightly.

"Rhydar?" She said again, snuggling closer to him anyway, "I finished my drink, we can leave now." In her mind she wondered if he was purposely not answering her so they wouldn't have to leave right away and she smiled softly.

His breathing deepened, becoming steadier and slower. A typical sign that someone was sleeping.

Eventually, even her drunk self looked up at him and saw he was asleep. She sighed and glanced around the room, knowing she had to get home even though she wanted to let him sleep. "Hey, Rhydar." Jynna poked him in the side to wake him up, "Wake up sleepy."

He scrunched his nose as he slowly woke back up. "Damn, I fell asleep," he grumbled to himself.

"You tired at all?" She asked somewhat jokingly, a small smile forming, "I'm ready to go now if you want to leave."

"Yeah… Just gimme a sec to wake up…" He wrapped his arm tighter around her, lightly rubbing her arm.

She nodded and let the smile grow a little as she pressed herself against him more, "Alright sleepy."

"Hey, keeping you entertained is tiring work," he defended playfully. He smiled down at her.

She laughed and looked up at him, "I don't think I can deny that, I am a handful."

"That you are," he said with a wink. He then blew out a breath and threw his head back, feeling too lazy to get up. "I don't really want to move," he admitted.

“I don’t want to either..but I have to get back to my place eventually.” She sat up a little straighter and reached for her glass, frowning when she picked it up and remembered it was empty.

He chuckled when he saw her frown. "I see you finished off your second drink. Someone a little disappointed?" he teased. True, he had to leave as well. Guess it's about time they headed out anyways. Who knows when they're gonna show up.

She pretended to scowl at him, “Shut up, it was a good drink.” She picked up the glass and sighed, stretching out, “I can go take this back to the bar Then we can head out.”

He stood as well, stretching his arms over his head with a loud sigh. "Works for me. Ready when you are."
