After their bath, Elias wrapped Adeline in a white towel, dried her down, and helped her get dressed. It was difficult and she needed his guidance.
Elias could see the dismay in her eyes when her legs laid limply. He helped her brush her teeth as well, standing behind her, an arm wrapped around her waist, hoisting her into a standing position as she brushed her teeth.
Elias did not mind it a single bit. He enjoyed holding her in his arms, hugging her, and having her close to him. It brought over a sense of comfort. She was reliant on him for support as he was reliant on her for love.
"Am I heavy?" Adeline asked once both of their teeth were brushed and he carried her to bed. He laid her down and slipped under the blankets with her.
"I wish you were," Elias muttered. "That way, I'd know you're eating properly."
