White Wine
"I watch you
Fast asleep
All I fear
Means nothing"~Sanctuary-Utada Hikaru
Lightning sat in an armchair by the bed, watching the young girl sleep. She looked so peaceful, curled up in a little ball on top of the covers; her face flushed light pink from the white wine Fang had let her try earlier. Watching her sleep, Lightning could see now why her sister loved her so much.
She's just like Serah, so gentle and sweet. Just one look at her now and all the hardships of our adventures seem to fade away. Serah's just like that. Vanille…If only you weren't so young…
The redhead stirred, shaking with cold and the beginnings of a nightmare.
Lightning rose, resting her white wine glass on the side table before climbing up on the bed. She pulled the covers out, carefully smoothing the girls skirt before covering her.
Vanille's shivering soon subsided but Lightning could sense, ever so slightly, that the girl was crying. In wanting to comfort her, Lightning dared herself to slip under the covers and wrap her arms around the girl. She then felt Vanille pull in closer to her, the girls' fragile frame pressed against her slightly more built one.
"Thank you." Vanille whispered, before settling back into a sound sleep; the pink tinge from the white wine sparkling innocently on her sweet and angelic face as she lay, calm and peaceful, tucked in Lightning's arms.
The End
