From Orei's kiss and Orei's touch seemed to flow a relaxing energy that washed sleepiness over Matt. His limbs relaxed in such a way it was almost as if he collapsed in her arms and she lowered him into a bed that was suddenly there. A deep sigh emitted from him as he sunk into the mattress and the pillow. It'd been so long since he'd slept in a bed. Even back home, he'd slept in one so rarely. His eyes closed immediately, and he snuggled into the comfortable softness surrounding him. There were fading thoughts of how it was too much luxury for him but they were distant. He heard a soft scraping sound and cracked his eyes open just enough to see that a privacy screen had been put up. He desired to get up and move it. He didn't want to feel separated from anyone but he was so relaxed that the most movement that occurred was him reaching his arm out toward it. He fell asleep before he could do anything else.
Matt's sleep was deep, dreamless and restful. He hadn't slept so well in ages. Nor had he felt so... cared for. When daylight came, he was woken gently to the happy chirruping of a robin. He lay in the bed for a few moments, confused as to where he was. Finally he remembered the night before. He stretched with a little moan and got up, moving the privacy screen to the side, then, looking at it against his hands, he wrinkled his nose and tossed it into the fire, causing it to roar to life.
He looked over at Arianna, still sleeping restfully. He stepped outside, determined to get something more substantial for her to eat. Then his own stomach growled. He realized it'd been nearly a day since he'd eaten anything, so he sat down, just outside the cave and dug into the bag on his hip, pulling out the bread and scarfing at it.
