On the train, Fidget had fallen asleep by Olivia's side. "Aww, Fidget, you're so cute when you sleep," Olivia said thoughtfully. Distinctively, she was being sincere and found it cute and even though he snored, she found his snoring amusing and as light as a feather. So, she lied her head by his side.
Kids, Mr. Flaversham genuinely thought, They get along so well and they grow up so fast.
…
In their new home, they settled after their journey and found new rooms for them to sleep in.
Each and every night, Fidget had a good night's sleep, although once in a while, he had nightmares, but not often. Whenever, he had a nightmare, he dwelled over something else. Something more pleasant to help him fall asleep. On other occasions, he slept in Olivia's bed next to Olivia.
"Fidget, what's the matter?" she asked with concern.
"I had a nightmare about Ratigan," Fidget answered plaintively. It was true because he had been fighting his inner demons of the past and that was when Olivia patted her bed to get him to climb into bed. He did and in that moment, he fell into a deep sleep as if he hadn't slept in a long time as Olivia tucked him into her bed and he began to snore.
"Comfy, aren't you?" Olivia observed with a giggle as he snuggled with her.
The snug bat moved his head contentedly in his slumber as she rubbed her head against his shoulder and she soon dozed off.
…
The next morning, Olivia and Fidget shared their feelings for one another and Fidget described why he worked for Ratigan because Ratigan made him in sheer force. Although Olivia was stunned by this piece of news at first, she was glad she listened, anyway. "Thank you for telling me," she said.
"And thank you for listening," Fidget responded.
Mr. Flaversham heard them speaking to one another.
"Well, Fidget, I'm glad you told us," Mr. Flaversham said.
Fidget hadn't said anything else. He just sat there, relieved to get it off his chest until Olivia suggested, "Fidget, how would you like to be my partner in solving mysteries?"
That made Fidget stand up from his chair. "I'd like that, Olivia!" he beamed and hugged his new best friend, who smiled and did the same for him. After all, he was thrilled to begin his adventures with Olivia and was happy to have a better life.
The End
