[Aqua heard him rolling off his bed and onto the floor. It only takes her a few seconds to get up and out of her bed and only a minute later when she's yanking open the door to his room. She goes over and sits herself next to him, placing her hands gently on his shoulders.]
Francis? It's okay, let it out.
[Aqua really doesn't like seeing him like this but she'd never dream of ignoring him while he's like this.]
[Aqua rubs one hand against his back and the other eventually starts combing through his hair. She was hoping that being here with him, if he fell back to sleep, would help keep the nightmares away and she could make sure that his wound didn't start bleeding heavily again.]
[He sits down gently on the bed, despite feeling like he only had the energy to let himself flop face-first onto it. And when he lays down he groans. To signify pain, or relief that he's finally down, or a million other reasons - who knew.]
[Aqua's sits beside him, trying not to shake the bed much with him laying down, and runs her hands through his hair again. And then, just to help him relax and get comfortable, maybe even sleep, she sings for him.]
[Thick tears roll from his eyes again. He wraps his arms around her waist, face nuzzling against her as he cries again. He knew it was just a song, but the lyrics...her lovely voice... He cries into her side.]

[He had to restrain himself from kissing her just then. How had he ever befriended such a beautiful creature with an equally beautiful heart?
...he managed a small smile.]

We can lay in mine, and later in the morning I'll change your sheets for you so you can relax and not worry much.
[Terra might get upset but she can calm him down.]

[Reluctantly he stood, slowly - his chest still ached fiercely.]

[Aqua stays right beside him, one arm wrapped behind his back just in case he stumbles and heads to her room with him.]

I don't know any lullabies or anything, so that's the best I can do.
[Which was a little sad but it didn't bother her. She really didn't mean to make him cry again.]
