[ prompto isn't the only one to sink right to it. alisaie is a good sleeper even at the worst of times, but with his arms around her and the scent of him so close, and peo curled between them like a little warm bundle - it has been a difficult day, but they are content, and it isn't long at all before the room falls all but silent for the sound of their steady breathing.

she sleeps soundly through the night, through his bouts of wakefulness, with her fingers held loose in his own and her body curled comfortably. it's just before dawn when she wakes, groggy and disoriented and far, far too hot.

groaning softly against her pillow, alisaie shifts, exhaling hard, and she's trembling with an impossible chill in her bones despite the fact that she's slick with sweat enough to dampen her hair and nightdress, and the sheets beneath her. her head is spinning and for a moment she can't remember where she is, what is happening, until peo approaches with a soft whine, licking unhelpfully at her face.

moving feels impossibly difficult, but she shifts anyway in the tangled, sweat-damp sheets, reaching for the glass of water she's left on the nightstand but she's dizzy and groggy and she knocks it instead. it crashes to the floor with a noisy splash and shatter, accompanied by a breathless, colorful swear. ]
