Natalia smiled softly. "I'm relieved to hear it. Thank you, Yuri." He really wasn't so bad at all, was he? She lifted the covers and slid her legs underneath, tipping back to lay her head on the soft pillow. A wave of weariness stole over her almost immediately. She'd known she was tired, but she didn't realize just how much until she finally allowed herself to lie down. It was no wonder he'd been so insistent.

"Good night," she bid to the warrior, seeking out the dim outline of his form upon the couch before she let her lashes close. "I am very glad you chose to come here and fight."

It didn't take long for her to fall asleep after that. In just a few short minutes her breathing had become deep and even where she lay curled up on her side, one hand buried under the pillow to find that one cool spot while she clutched the covers securely beneath her chin.
