Casey let Alec curl up against it, not minding at the other using it as a pillow as well. The dragon remained awake, somewhat on edge about what had happened to the human still. It did its best to keep its body relaxed though, letting its eyes shut as it focused on hearing Alec sleep. The dragon made no move or sound as it heard what could only be a nightmare that was bothering the human. Casey made no move until Alec actually woke ump seeing the human curl up and cry. It wasn't sure of what to do but chose to go off of instinct as it moved to wrap its arms securely around the human, a low mummer leaving its lips before speaking.

"It was just a dream Alec...you're safe here..."

The dragon ran a hand through Alec's hair as means to soothe the boy, a low pur-like sound coming from its throat as it was just wanting the boy to be comfortable again.

He realized that it was just a dream and felt arms around him. He looked up to Casey now and sigh, laying his head on Casey's chest with his eyes closed. I'm sorry...... He said softly and nuzzled his head into Casey's chest.

He pushed the dragon back onto the bed and couldn't help but to straddle his waist, smiling down at him. He laid himself down onto of the other and kissed his neck.

Casey just kept holding the boy, its body growing less tense as it felt Alec start to calm down again. it ran its hand though the other's hair, sighing at the other saying sorry again.

"Its alright. I know how traumatic an ordeal such as what happened can be..."

The dragon purred in a mildly confused manner at the other nuzzling against its chest. Casey couldn't help the be further confused when Alec chose to push it back into laying down. its hair and eyes couldn't help to pink pale pink for a moment as the human was on top of him. The dragon didn't reject this though, but did seem to be slightly uncomfortable with the sudden change from comforting to...it didn't even have a word for what was occurring.

He wasn't trying to start anything, but he continued to kiss the others neck and finally stop to just nuzzle his head in the others neck. He sigh softly, pulling the covers back over them. Can I just lay here like this. He asked softly and hoped that Casey wouldn't mind with him being in this position.

OOC: sorry its so short.

Casey was very much uneasy at the moment, almost afraid to move until the blankets were pulled back over them. Its tense body seemed to relax once Alec just seemed to lay down, not moving from on top of the dragon but it could deal with such better if the human would only stay still. Its arms moved to hold Alec close sighing softly as it let its eyes shut.

"As long as you are comfortable and able to rest I don't care...Now just go back to sleep..."

Casey almost sounded tired itself now, eyes even looking to grow heavy. Its not like it was hungry at the moment with having eaten terror and an entire soul saving Alec, but it was starting to sum up the fact that it was very much warm and cozy as its reason for wanting sleep.

He smiled some in his sleep and nuzzled his head into the others neck once more and fell into a deep sleep. He sigh softly and it had to have been hours, because he felt so well rested and struggled to get up and out of bed.

He quickly used the bathroom, washing his hands and looked at himself in the mirror. The bruises to his limbs were alot lighter, but the one to his cheek were still very much there. He winched when he touched the large purple mark that stood out against his pale skin.

Casey let itself fall asleep this time as well, only doing so once Alec was in a state of slumber first. The dragon had remained perfectly still, seeming very much like a statue other than its calm and slow breathing. It didnt stir until it felt Alec waking up, the dragon remaining unmoving even as the other left the bed. Casey didn't seem to like that so much though as it gave a growl, eyes still very much closed before moving to pull the blankets over its head. It had an arm sticking out from under the covers, the black painted nails looking like they just wanted to drag Alec back into bed before said dragon actually spoke.

"Come back here....you're warm...."

Casey was still very much asleep, or half asleep in some form as it just growled again.

He heard Casey and peered around from behind the door and giggled some at Casey. He walked back over to the other, laying down beside of him and curled up close to the dragon, sharing his warmth. He wrapped his arms around the dragon, somewhat surprised that the dragon would be so.....wanting for him to cuddle with him. Usually Casey was always alittle hesitate or stiffen when he would come near the other.

He snuggled his head into the dragon's chest and fell back asleep rather quickly. He didn't want to let go to the other and felt very safe in his arms.

Casey still seemed half asleep as it wrapped its arms around Alec once the boy was back in bed. Instead of unhappy growls, a rather happy and calming pur left the dragon as it let Alec get comfortable again. It seemed very much at ease now with the human using him as a pillow again, the dragon now sound asleep once more. It didn't sleep further than another hour when it awoke. It was fully alert this time as it grumbled, at first a little confused at the warmth it felt but then remembered it had saved Alec last night from a group of sick bastards. Golden eyes looked down at the human curled up against it as it started to toy with the other's hair. It didn't want to wake the human up just yet, wanting Alec to feel as rested as possible.

Alec had never slept so soundly before, not even in his own home where he knew he was safe. He couldn't help but to stay still, only his chest rising and falling or soft sounds of sleep leaving him. He barely felt Casey stir now and just made a soft sound, nuzzling his head even closer to Casey's chest and opened his one eye that could be seen and saw Casey was awake.

He smiled some at his hair being played with before lifting his head up some and looked at the dragon with a small smile. So.....what time is it? he asked.

Casey gave a smirk at seeing the human cuddle against its chest in his sleep, not exactly understanding why it even liked such a sight to begin with. golden eyes remained that color when Alec finally woke up, the dragon's smirk not helping to grow wider.

"It's around 8 in the morning. did you have something you needed to take care of?"

The dragon was curious of life outside the graveyard, so why not ask the human that visited it on a weekly basis?

He looked to Casey with a smile, sitting up some but not completely up but looked down at the other. Well.....I have school but....I don't really want to go..I would rather stay here and spend all day with you....besides I am still alittle to afraid to go outside...and I want to stay with you. He admitted softly with a smile and hoped that Casey wanted to stay with him to....or at least want Alec to stay there with him.

Casey blinked slightly, only knowing times and not days in its home. It must be a weekday of sorts if the human was needed in school. It sighed at hearing this but smirked at hearing the human boy wanted to stay.

"You can stay for as long as you like. Why would i even turn down your company?"

Casey really didn't get that many visitors, but this human had been able to slip past its hard scales and at its heart somehow. Its smirk couldnt help to turn somewhat dark though as it waited for Alec to choose whether to stay or not.

He smiled at the answer and gave Casey a quick kiss on the lips. Mmmm I don't think you can.....I am to cute and sweet to be thrown out. He said and giggled. He sat up now, on his knees and hands and just smiled down at the dragon.

You know....you really didn't have to do this contract...I would have kept my word. He said.

Casey let Alec do as he pleased for the most part, chuckling at the other saying it wanted him to stay for being so cute and sweet. The dragon wasn't too sure what it was that made it tolerate the human so much to begin with. At this point it should have really been trying to make a meal out of his emotions but for now, it had a contract preventing such.

"Oh but I did. I created this contract so as to not eat your emotions near constant. If it weren't for the contract i would have made a meal out of you, nothing stopping me from just going through with what is natural. At least now i have to ask, i can't just take."
