Bed or floor, it didn't really matter. As long as he was close to her Zero wasn't bothered much he especially appreciated her willingness to snuggle up lose on the floor with him with a book. So nostalgic, his chest hurt. He yawned again and curled up closer, her warmth incredibly soothing. He trained his eyes on what she showed and he nodded, "Yes, that's sledding, you do that when it snows and there are hills. It's fun." He almost asked what book she was reading but kept quiet, this was good, very good. If only they'd built a fort, that's what's missing isn't it? Their little roof in their small precious world. Something to house them away from the rest. If he could take her away from all the bad things, he would. If he could take away all her pain, even if he suffered for it he would.
One of them deserved to be happy.
"Can you read to me, Miss Loretta?"
Her gentle voice, such a sweet voice he wanted to fall asleep to. Stay in this moment forever, where his heart was light as the snow touching the glass outside, as warm as the space they shared on the floor, in the folds of the blankets absent of misery, fear, mistrust, hatred, all the bad things that pushed and pulled. They were in their zone. He didn't want to leave their zone. Not for a long time. Not for now.
