The Private Academy: Lumity story

12. a walk through calm wilderness..

"Luz.?? Are you alright?"

She smiles at me trying to seem normal but her body starts showing signs of dizziness, she places her hands on her ears and shakes her head slightly to probably try and rid her dizziness, standing up she stands wobbly on the ground then falls much like a toddlers second time standing.

"I'm really dizzy...yikes this feels weird-"

I look at her concerned and ask worried

"Should we get you home to get some rest?"

She nods but is completely resentful about the idea of sleeping, taking my hand I slowly stand her up and head down the path. Reaching the end of the path I knock once and head in saying enough to make a presence,

"We're home camilla!"

Luz sits down on the couch sideways and after I set the backpack down on the floor in front of us I lay comfortably ontop her front my head resting above her heart, handing her the remote she puts on the animated series of the good witch azura. Focusing hard on her heartbeat I raise my head and look down confused before I rest my head back down to make sure I'm not hallucinating, her heart keeps skipping beats.. again- but after around thirty minutes it steadies and returns to normal. Gently swapping positions with her she lays ontop me her arms crossed over my chest, her cheek resting on my collarbone. And after three episodes she closes her eyes gently her barely audible snoring following shortly afterwards, rubbing her back slowly I look down at her ever so gently sleeping on me but those skipped heartbeats.. worry me. Running one of my hands through her hair I smile trying to keep positive and pause the TV to stare lovingly at her, her lips curling into a smile as she wraps her arms around me. Closing my eyes I wrap my arms further around her and join her peaceful slumber, only waking when she mutters gently and adjusts herself. Opening her eyes hesitantly she asks quietly not sure if she's awake or not,

"Am I alive?.."

Chuckling slightly I kiss her forehead softly to which she mumbles a loving 'mmh..' to my touch, her embrace tightening as I mumble tired 'mhm..' she smiles and says quietly

"Mmn...that's good.."

Her eyes closing again tiredly, giggling I ask softly

"Would you like to sleep on YOUR bed? It's alot softer than the couch"

She opens her eyes gently and looks into my eyes, she rubs her face into my shirt and mumbles kinda being a grumpus

"Only if we can resume the position we were in earlier this morning..."

I stake up the perfect opportunity to tease her by saying

"How early are we talking about??"

She grumbles being an absolute sourpuss, but then she says in a wholesome manner

"Well..the sun was rising.."

She sits up letting me stand up, looking at her tired expression I hold open my arms and ask,

"Would it be easier if I carried you..?"

Without a word she wraps her arms around my neck and her legs around my waist, resting my hands on the bottoms of her thighs to support her I walk surprisingly very easily up the stairs, her face buried in my neck. Stepping into her room I shut the door behind me and awkwardly crawl into her bed under the covers thanking god himself camilla has a 'shoes at the doorway' rule. luz lets go and turns her back to me, wrapping my arms around her I pull her in as close as I can. She mumbles basically nothing to express her happiness and I rest my ear on her back to listen to her heart, sighing relieved when I hear it's still normal I bury my face into her shoulder and say quietly
