Besides night meant that one could stargaze, and she did so love to do that. "Maybe on top of a trip to the greenhouses we could stargaze at some point?" Amelia asked. Because even though they could get in trouble for being out after hours stargazing didn't technically need to be done during term time. Especially if they were able to see each other over the breaks.
"That's true. I guess I'm just lucky that I tend to be okay at night and don't let it bother me overly much," because she'd already admitted that at times it got to be too much, and there were times when the dark just made everything worse but on a general level she was fine at night.
"Perhaps. Although I'm sure that you're family would like to see you for longer than just a few hours. And if it was okay for me to go with you as long as I woke in the actual morning I should be good," which was a little white lie, because even if she did wake in the morning she was probably likely to freak before she remembered where she was. That had already happened the first night of school and she'd been afraid that she would panic again and make a bad impression on his folks.
"Sometimes having to rub the cream in makes it feel worse than it would have if you left it," Amelia added, pulling a face of displeasure at the remembrance of bruise cream. That being said she wouldn't object to Isaac touching her hand because she found it nice, especially when he was being so careful not to hurt her hand more than it already was.
"I think thet would be fun" he said with a smile on his lips. He did too, stargazing along with homework, sounded like a great combination. Get the not so much fun stuff done and have fun looking at the stars as well! "One thing I love about here, is there isn't the lights as in a city, it's so wide open here, and can see the whole sky so clearly." It was one reason he hated living in cities, you couldn't see the sky so good. He needed the wide open space it gave him freedom, and the ability to see nature the way it should be seen.
He still wasn't sure if her spending the night would be the best thing for her, if she had that fear and woke in the middle of the night it could be really bad for her. His mum would be there and help but it wasn't the same as sleeping in your own bed he knew. He'd say they could sleep in the same room, so she'd be more comforted but that wouldn't be right either! He didn't know if he could sleep if they'd done that, it would be so awkward... "We'll jus' see what happens." he said softly not agreeing or disagreeing. He was the one who had brought it up and he should know better. He wouldn't mind either way, but knew his parents would be happy even if it were just for a few hours.
Seeing her face of displeasure he wrinkled his nose as well "Very true. Te bad there isn' something thet would work without causing additional pain."
