 Granddaddy Ravenclaw | | Jermione Granger
Silas smiled and played with Dora's hair as she lay with her head on his chest. Normal, certainly not.
"Well, I meant what I said when I said I don't plan... but I do certainly think we have a good thing, here." Silas hoped she took that as he meant it. He wouldn't dare say that he could see them together in the future, even if he did, (he did) because the twinge of pain that that day might never happen was too much.
Silas chuckled. "Well, I promise not to tell you if you say anything terribly embarrassing, then." Silas winked at her as she started to drop off. Despite everything that had happened, he was relaxing.
Dora had fallen asleep in his arms. Silas lay there for a moment, feeling the warmth of the fire on his face. His eyes scanned the living room as shadows from the fire danced across the wall. As his eyelids began to droop, he checks to make sure Dora was actually sleeping, before kissing her forehead and whispering, "Goodnight, my sweet Dora." Closing his eyes, Silas silently wished that the nightmares that plagued his sleep would not trouble him tonight.
