Adelina smiled at him softly, cheeks flushed a light pink. [color=ed1c24]"No, it doesn't scare me at all."[/color] As Orren noted the time, Adelina realized how late it had gotten, a yawn parting her lips. It had definitely been a long day and with her father and brother hopefully arriving tomorrow, her life was about to become a lot busier than it had been. She just hoped Ciel wouldn't react too badly when he found out his suspicions about the prince of the castle proving true. But then again, Ciel had a perchance for theatrics so she highly doubted they would get by without some form of an episode. But she would cross that bridge when she came to it. No matter what Ciel said or did, she was not going to budge on this. She had promised Orren nothing would take her away and she intended to keep that promise no matter what.

She smiled up at him and gently placed her hand in is, following him up to her room. As they passed the countless halls and doorways, she tried to imagine Orren here, with no one to keep him company except for James. How terribly lonely it must have been. They arrived at her room and she watched as Orren tended to the fire and shut her shutters tightly so cold air could not seep in. [color=ed1c24]"Good night Ren."[/color] She replied, giving him a nickname of his own. Before he could walk away, she stood on her tiptoes and tugged his face down to hers, pressing a kiss to his cheek. She flushed lightly at her action and stepped inside her room, softly shutting the door. 

Once alone, her blush intensified, turning her cheeks a bright red as she grabbed a pillow and buried her face into it. She hadn't planned to kiss him on the cheek, it had just felt...right. She laid the pillow aside and stood, walking over to her vanity to sit down and brush out her hair. She got dressed in her pajamas and climbed into bed. The fire was crackling merrily in the fireplace and warmed to room. But as comfortable it was, she just couldn't go to sleep. Her thoughts were filled with Orren and her family. 

She sighed and sat up, padding over to the window seat and sitting down, gazing outside. It was still snowing, adding to the powder already coating the ground. She hoped James and the doctor would be able to make the drive up here and the snow didn't block off the path. She shook her head. Worries like that would only keep her awake longer. She returned to bed and laid back down, rolling over to face the wall. She closed her eyes and focused on relaxing each part of her body, one limb at a time. Soon her breathing had deepened and she was fast asleep.
