Mauve lay unmoving on the bed even when she heard the door open. Mill was quick, she was by her side in an instant and Mill sat her up. She helped her out of the shirt and Mauve was surprised when Mill didn't show any reaction to her dress.
The bath was quick and Mauve barely remembered what transpired. Next thing she knew she was saying goodnight to Mill while being cozied up in bed.
She pulled the sheets up to her head, it wasn't that cold out but she wanted to be underneath the sheets. She closed her eyes tightly, hoping she would fall asleep quickly as she didn't want to be alone with her thoughts.
Mauve groaned softly, a sound had woken her up but she wasn't sure what it was. Her eyes started to close again, she tried to keep them open but failed woefully, and just before she could give in to sleep one more time, she felt good hands brush against her skin.
