Abigail remained asleep the entire way home. She was quiet and she snuggled more against Cino's chest. In her arms, still tightly held, was Bun-bun. As they had neared the school, Wolf had trotted out to greet her, only to see she was asleep, and had let Cino pass without anything happening.
During this time, Abigial just let out happy noises, and snuggled more against Cino. She was very happy right now, and was asleep.
It didn't seem anything could wake the little girl up. She made another happy sound, and turned her head slightly, listening to Cino's heartbeat.
((ooc: um, it says Cino/open, because Cino needs to reply first, then it's open, if you want to join. I hope that's okay with Elite))

The walk home was rather pleasant. He always enjoyed walking during the night and this time was no different. The stars were able to be seen while he walked back which was always a plus for him. He listened to Abigail make a few noises here and there as he carried her back with him. Perhaps she was dreaming about something or their night out on the town. Periodically he felt her snuggled her head into his Kimono and coat. He looked at her as he slowly entered the building, being careful not to make too much noise. He looked around the dim lobby, where they had first met and decided to sit down on the couch. He sat near the end as he gently kept Abigail in his arms hoping not to wake her. A few moments passed and he could hear the trickle of something hitting against the windows. It was raining now, something he hadn't expected. It was just clear a little while ago, but he was only looking in one direction while walking...the clouds could've moved in faster than he expected.

Abigail only shifted a little when Cino sat down, but woke up a little when the rain began to hit the window...though not from the rain. Mainly from a loud curse that Wolf had barked out before racing off to hide from the rain.
She turned over a little in her sleep, clinging to Bun-bun, and snuggled down to into his chest. "Mmm...Cino?" she inquired, and rubbed her eyes a little.
She made a little noise, and rubbed her eyes a little. She felt very sleepy, and was also a little exhausted...well, more exhausted then just a little. She nuzzled a little more into Cino's coat, and yawned slightly. "Where are we?" she mumbled, not sure if she was understood or not.

He relaxed slightly as he watched the rain splatter against the window the best he could. He felt Abigail rustle against him again as he looked at her again. She seemed...peaceful while sleeping, something he wished he could let more people feel when they were around him. He would always hate himself if someone couldn't feel like that. All those years ago...he remembered what happened. This little thought was shake away as he heard his name. Abigail seemed to have woken up slightly, however still seemed tired. His emerald eyes detracted from the window and to Abigail. "We're back at the Academy in the lobby." He whispered to her as he wedged himself up against the end of the couch and placed his legs up on it as well while keeping Abigail in her same position. A flash could be seen out of the corner of his eye before a low rumble could be heard. A storm already? That was quick, although he knew storms could do that.

Abigail let out a little mutter, and held Bun-bun tighter, before tensing a little. It...was dark! The flash of lightning caused her to relax slighty, but it was over, and she clung to Cino's jacket.
She didn't like the dark. Bad things happened in the dark, and she didn't want bad things to happen.
Outside, another flash of lightning caused Abigail to relax for a few seconds before she curled up against Cino's coat again. "Too dark, don't like the dark, bad, bad things happen in the dark," she mumbled, unsure if Cino heard her or not.
On the surface, she hoped he hadn't. Deep down, she hoped he had.

Cino had his eyes closed as he listened to what was going on. The rain tapping against the glass window and the occassional crash of thunder. He could hear Abigail mumble something as the lightning struck again. Perhaps she was afraid of it? Or maybe she was afraid of the dark. He didn't feel her shiver when the lightning flashed across the window. He held her close to him as he brushed a hand on the inside of his coat where his sword sheath lay. Withdrawing his hand, he snapped his finger and a small ember began to glow on his hand. He twirled it around his fingers and let it dance for a moment before letting it sit in the air, illuminating their faces and surroundings. The couch's shadow now coud be seen as the little flame flickered. "Don't be afraid." He smiled. "You're like...a little sister to me. I won't let anything happen to you." There, he had said it. Now all it was to seem how she would react. He didn't even expect the words to even slip from his tongue so easily.

Abigail stopped shaking when she saw the light. She relaxed extremely, and yawned a little. It was surprising that he did that, but it was nice.
Now, there was light, and nothing bad could happen in the light. Snuggling against his coat again, she felt very happy. It was there she heard Cino's confession, and she looked up.
"Okay. That means you're my big brother, right?" she answered, very much wanting it.
She wanted a family that would love her. Auntie was there, but now she had to stay home. Her family...well, they weren't anywhere near her, and for that Abigail was bitterly happy about.
She hugged Bun-bun a little tighter, and snuggled against Cino's chest. She was sleepy, and with the light there, it was easier to go back to sleep.
"Night, night Big Brother," she mumbled.

For a moment, Cino couldn't tell how Abigail was feeling until he realized she wasn't shaking as much as she was before. She only moved on occassion to get more comfortable and snuggle into his coat. He expected the answer she gave as much and gently brushed her shoulder with his hand. "Night lil'Sis." He murmurred as he looked down at her in the soft light of the little ember that hovered around. He gently wrapped his arms around the body of the little girl as he let out a sigh, watching the water drip down the window.

Abigail let out a little murmur, and gripped Bun-bun with Cino's coat. She liked that coat, and she turned a little more against his chest. It was nice right here, and she let out a soft sigh in her sleep.
That was mainly because she was having a good dream, wasn't in the dark, and she had a brother near by. She let out another little hum sound, and slipped into a deeper type of sleep. It was just a nice little thing, and she let out a soft snore.
It was her first and last one though, so it didn't really disturb anyone hopefully. She pulled Bun-bun up more to her chin, and smiled in her dream.

Cino couldn't fall asleep like usually. His eyelids simply sat heavy as he watched and listened to the water hit against the roof and windows of the building. While not the most exciting thing, he couldn't sleep otherwise. He was comforted slightly by his new found little sister however. He felt her shift around ever so often and even murmur something, although it was probably just a sleep thing. He wondered what he would do the next day, it was still the weekend after all. Perhaps Charlize would drag him out around the town again like she usually did. He simply blinked his eyes for a few moments before barely opening them again letting the dim ember light flicker in the dark lobby.
