Time for Bed: Part 2 (Veruca's POV)
I gazed serenely at the full moon from my bedroom window as I sipped my nightly tea. The sound of the cool autumn breeze was ever so calming. And the plants I had strewn outside smelled so soothing that I summoned my powers to pull some onto my windowsill.
I found it odd that Klausy had not come in yet. My little brother was usually in bed well before me. But I was not worried as I knew exactly where to find him.
The library.
I was quite amused to find him dead asleep with the side of his face planted in one of many open books. Poor tuckered out thing!
Klaus sleepily cooed as I scooped him up out of the chair. I heard him mumble something about turmeric as he melted into my arms and I could not help but giggle.
"Come on, you adorable little nerd. You've got a bed to be getting to."
I carried my tired brother down the long hallway to our room and tucked him in. The way he burrowed into his bedsheets was so bloody cute, it was!
Once he was all comfy, I gave his fluffy little head a goodnight kiss.
"Sweet dreams, my sweet baby brother."
I sat on the edge of his bed for a moment, just listening to his gentle breathing. Then after putting out all the candles, I got nice and cozy in my own warm bed.
Across the room, I could see Klausy's covered frame rise and fall in the pale moonlight. So, I counted his breaths in my head and steadily drifted right to sleep.
