[x] Hug Evelyn one more time.
-[x] Go to sleep.
--[x] Forget to let go of Evelyn first.
"T-that's just evil of you," you tell Evelyn with a shaking voice before letting out a sudden tired yawn. Come to think of it, you have no idea what time it is exactly, only that you probably have a few hours of sleep left at least before having to wake up for school. Resting for those moments seems like a good idea to you, limited as they may be.
Ugh.. school weeks always seem to get in your sleep's way. Having to wake up doesn't sound very appealing when your eyes constantly seem to be on the verge of closing.
"Yeah, sorry, sorry… I won't do that again, I promise," Evelyn mumbles back to you with another muffled giggle. Even in your tired state making the words sound slurry, you swear she sounds insincere about that. The nerve of her! Yet, you don't really care enough to protest now as the land of dreams beckons to you with increasing strength.
You give a one last squeeze to the girl in your arms and mumble back incoherently with your voice barely above a whisper,
"T-thank you…" At this point your eyelids finally droop down and you no longer have any idea why you are even talking here, but it feels right to say that.
However, it takes you a moment to realize that you are lying on your bed partially sideways and that your feet are hanging over the edge. It feels quite annoying having to move yourself from your current, pretty comfortable position, but getting yourself a pillow and blanket in addition to a hug pillow seems like a good enough plan to you.
With a sluggish bounce of your legs you throw the warm bundle in your arms and yourself slightly forwards and properly onto the bed. Your head lands on the edge of the pillow and you swear you hear a slight yelp which you ignore. You slowly pull back the other arm in the hug and press it around the sheets as you try to look for something- yes, there the blanket is.
"T-Tamiko, what are you-"
You grab and throw the large and warm bed covering over yourself before you adjust your position slightly to get fully comfortable and warm. You must be dreaming already, as you swear you can hear someone say something next to your ear. You have no idea what they are saying as you drift into the sweet lull of sleep, but it is probably nothing important.
"...err, never mind... G'night…
===
You drowsily and reluctantly wake up to the new morning as the light of the sun coming through the gaps in your curtains finally gets too intense for your liking. You quietly swear under your breath for having woken up before the alarm clock has even rung, but still force yourself to start opening your eyes seeing that you probably won't be able to get any sleep at this point.
Come to think of it, you seem to be hugging some kind of soft, warm bundle in your arms and there seems to be something fuzzy laid in front of your face. Your eyes open up with a jolt and suddenly you are greeted by the sight of Evelyn's peacefully sleeping and smiling face in front of you. Her long hair is strewn haphazardly all around her, almost including the insides of your mouth. She seems to have no care in the world.
However, you are also forced to realize that you were very much sleeping next to her under the same shared blanket and that you are both tightly hugging each other under it. Your face suddenly heats up as the overpowering feeling of embarrassment creeps into your thoughts and you start panicking about your current predicament.
If your uncle were to find out about this… After everything you have done to deny his slanderous teasing… Doom must be above you.
A faint sound of boiling water emanates from outside the room.
What do you do?
[] Try to go back to sleep, it must all be a dream.
[] Quietly try to sneak out of the grasp.

[] Write-in

Ahh, the joys of new morning.
