"You still look really tired. Maybe you should get some rest." Liam suggested, putting his guitar to the side.

"No, I'm fine," Kasey assured him, though the yawn that came after her words said otherwise.

(Dang, I gtg. School awaits…)

Andion chuckled, "Rest, Kasey. I'll be right here."

(Aha, I should probably go to sleep. Have fun at school! lol, no one ever does)

(Lol. Well, lucky for me, I'm homeschooled, so I don't actually have to go anywhere.)

"You could join me," Kasey murmured, already closing her eyes as she leaned her head on his shoulder. "There's room."

(Wait, really? Lucky, high school is a nightmare. It is for me anyway)

"I think I might, come on," Liam gently picked her up, "You wouldn't mind heading to my bedroom, would you? It's more comfortable then the couch."

(Darn, lol. I went to a normal school until I was 13.)

"That's fine," Kasey murmured sleepily. "Not like we haven't done it before…"

(Yeah… I wish I was home school sometimes, or at least to move schools)

Liam smiled, "I guess that's true." He said gently, walking to his room and placing Kasey down carefully.

"Mmhm…" Kasey hummed in acknowledgment. She was already half asleep at this point, and she didn't realize most of what she was saying.

"Rest now, Kasey." Liam said gently, climbing under the covers and pulling Kasey with him carefully.

Kasey snuggled up close to Liam and wrapped her arms around him. She buried her face in his chest as her breathing slowed.

Liam chuckled and wrapped his arms around the other, placing a kiss to her head before drifting off to sleep.

Kasey woke up a while later, cuddled up close to Liam. Her face was still buried in his chest, and she smiled a bit.

Liam was still asleep, his breathing slightly irregular but not by much. He shifted slightly but didn't wake up yet.

Kasey lifted her head to look at his face. She reached up to lightly brush her fingers across his face as she admired him.

Liam let out a small sigh as he blinked his eyes open slowly, "W-What time is it?" He asked sleepily.

Kasey dropped her hand and laid her head back now.

"I don't know," she sighed, still coming out of sleep.

Liam nodded and yawned, closing his eyes again.

"Okay then…" He muttered, pulling Kasey closer.

"We just gonna lay here?" Kasey wondered, closing her eyes again.

"If you want too, I'm not stopping you from leaving anytime you know." Liam said, sighing a little.

"Hm. Then you'll be lonely, though. Plus, my next class isn't until four," Kasey murmured.

"Okay then," Liam yawned, "I think my body's trying to make up for lost sleep…" He muttered.

"If you want to sleep I can go home and study," Kasey offered, though she would prefer to stay with him.

"You could just study here, I don't mind. I'd prefer if you stayed…" Liam's voice became quieter as he spoke.

"Okay," Kasey whispered with a smile. "Then I'll stay."

Liam nodded slowly and yawed again, "Great…" He mumbled.

Kasey kissed his cheek, then looked up at the ceiling.

"You should sleep more," she murmured, turning to him.

Liam shook his head and tried to sit up, "No, no I'm fine."

"Are you sure?" Kasey asked, giving him a concerned look.

Liam nodded and rubbed his face, giving the other a slightly strained smile, "Yeah, I'm sure."

Liam knew what he was doing was wrong. To get better he needed to rest and regarding his physical and mental health wasn't good. He was slipping back into old habits but he couldn't let Kasey know, not yet anyway.

"You're sure you're sure?" Kasey pressed a bit. She would do her best to not read his mind and invade his privacy, but sometimes it was hard not to, especially when she was concerned about him.
