"I haven't been curious enough yet," Lily said. "There might be things in the drawers too, but I haven't looked. By the time I figured out just exactly how to open it, it was pretty late. I had to do some investigative work to find it. Took me hours." She stepped into the room. "I know eventually my curiousity will get the better of me." She sat down on the bed. "I might stay here tonight."

Scott nodded his head at her even though she couldn't see him, as he was behind her. he grinned when she said her curiousity would get the better of her, he knew it would him too. Since just Lily sat on the bed, Scott plopped down on the chair after he followed her into the room.
"Looks like a cozy enough place," he replied. The room did indeed look cozy, but did she really want to stay in here by herself as opposed to the warm bed she had in the eagle girl's dorms?

"I don't know though," Lily said. "It would be weird. But it would be so good to have my own room again. It's been ages. And I'm really not all that sure that I can go back tonight, like I said. And I don't feel like going all the way to the room of requirement when this room is here, do you know what I mean?"

"I suppose I do," Scott replied. The room was right there afterall, what was the sense in going all the way to the seventh floor to go to the Room of Requirement? Even though Scott had not been to it yet, he wondered just how far away it was. Scott stood up, stretched, and cracked his back before smiling down at Lily. "I suppose this is good night then?" he asked lightly.

"This sounds like a weird favor but," Lily asked quietly. "Could you stay here until I fall asleep?" She pointed at the door which had closed behind them. "It's not hard to get out. Third brick above the notebooks on the desk twice and then the one to the right."

Lily's request startled Scott slightly. She wanted him to stay with her? It would not have startled him quite so much as it had if it were another student asking him to stay, but just Lily? "Um...yeah. I can stay if you'd like," Scott managed to say.
he sat back down in the chair after he quickly glanced at the bricks Lily had told him would allow him to exit when she was asleep. In truth he didn't mind staying with her, in fact he'd most likely enjoy it. However, he wasn't sure about it. his thoughts had started to get the better of him and he decided he was enjoying her company much more than he should. There were only two other girls in the school that he had thought about as more than friends, and he knew both were already taken, so he was unsure of his thoughts toward the flower. Maybe it was just something that was because of how he was feeling with the other two and knew they were unreachable at the moment.

Lily kicked off her shoes and placed them by the foot of the bed. The lights went down, as if by magic (which it probably was) when Lily crawled under the covers. "This is a comfy bed," she mummured absentmindedly. "Good night Scott free," she said quietly, turning her back to the wall.

"Good night, just Lily," Scott replied. he watched her for a few minutes and thought about things. Some thoughts were good thoughts, others were not so great. Absentmindedly, he ran his hand through his golden locks and sat back in the chair. he was slightly tempted to grab one of the notebooks to look though while he waited for the flower to fall asleep, but decided against it. Instead he sat there and listened to her breathe, and just waited.

It wasn't long before Lily, comforted by the sound of his breathing and the knowledge that he was there and she fell asleep. But as always, it wasn't long after she fell asleep that she began to dream - and not pleasant ones either. "No, no," she said quietly, before growing more frantic and loud. "No don't! I won't let you take me too, I won't let you, I won't, I won't!"
((lol I like to drag things out and get as much rp as possible))

((not a problem))
Scott stood up after he realized Lily had fallen asleep, ready to head back to the Ravenboys dorms. As soon as he pulled his wand he heard Lily speak, maybe she wasn't asleep yet? he turned around to look at the precious girl as she began to talk louder. Quickly he stepped toward the girl, not really sure what to do. As she began speaking more frantically, he stepped right up to the bed. Gently Scott reached out his hand and touched the girl's shoulder.
After he touched her shoulder though, he stopped. he didn't really want to wake her, but then again he wanted to stop whatever she was experiencing. Scott leaned over the girl on the bed and moved his hand to her hers. he lightly squeezed it and waited to see if it would help, but if it didn't he was going to wake her.

"Don't let them take me," Lily whispered, still in a state of sleep. "Please don't let them take me." While she wasn't concious and aware of who exactly it was, someone else was in her dream. Someone else who was good. "Don't let them take me away. They're taking me where I don't want to go."

"Shhh...no one is going to take you anywhere," Scott said soothingly. Scott gently sat down on the edge of the bed and let go of her hand. his hand moved to her face and began to stroke her cheek softly. "I won't let anyone take you anywhere you don't want to go, flower. I promise, I'm right here."
Scott wasn't sure what to say. The girl was so fragile looking, and he hadn't had to do anything like this before. he just sat there and continued to lightly stroke her cheek as he waited for her to hopefully calm down.

Lily knew however that the strongest way to fight it was to wake. And so, fighting herself she awoke with a start, heart pounding fast, breathing shallow, a frightened look about her eyes, not really concious of where she was yet. There was someone sitting on her bed. "Who's there?" She said softly. There was a roughness to her voice. What if she had only dreamt she woke up and this was another demon?

"It's Scott, Lily. It's just me," he said soothingly. Her wakening had been sudden, he had noticed her breathing and the look in her eyes. Her dream must have been a frightening one. Carefully, he moved his hand from her cheek back to her hand. he gently squeezed it to let her know he wasn't going to hurt her, and began to stroke her fingers with his thumb. "Are you alright, love?" he asked softly.

Lily was embarrassed and relieved all at the same time that he had been there. Her breathing gradually slowed and she sat up, leaning against the wall, her eyes closed. He had called her love; was this confirming her thoughts from before? She pushed it out of her mind for a moment though. "I hate the nightmares. I bloody well hate them. So torturous. I can hardly remember the last time I had a good night's sleep that wasn't induced."
