(He had just sort of laid there with Gavrael tucked into his side, his head resting on his arm and his eyes soft on her as he let himself relax. He had cried so hard over his brother that he was emotionally drained and would have found it hard to try to analyze what had happened that night if he had wanted to.. but the truth of it was that he didnt want to. He was content for he first time having laid out his heart for her and finally allowing himself to trust that it wouldn't be embarassing, or make him less of a man, to have her be the one to pick up the pieces. As he listened to her story, he watched his son slowly drift to sleep and felt at peace with his life at last. He smiled at her comment about their hair, something that had always been sort of a sort point with a few of the maids at the keep who thought he would never cut his hair if he wasnt told to a hundred times.) Aye, tis about that time I suppose. (He said in a soft voice that was reserved for those quiet moments in bed when he was fighting to stay awake. He stifled a yawn and carefully peeled himself away from Gavrael's side, laying the boy's arm over his stomach and pulling the covers over him more before kissing his forehead softly.) I think yer as tired as I am, love. (He said to her in the same tone, then walked over to check on the grate over the hearth as he did every night at Caithness, making sure one last time before they left Gav for the night that the fireplace was secured.)

"Aye, I am tired...but tis early still." She murmured softly, tipping her head to the side as she watched him for a long moment before she let out a soft breath and smiled a little at him. "We should go back down and see how things are going with everyone going on down there..." She stated softly before she looked up suddenly as she heard the scream echo through the keep. "What was that?!" She exclaimed, jumping off the bed after making sure Gavrael was still asleep and heading out into the hallway, looking both ways to see if anyone was out there. She would need to get used to being a princess and the security measures she should take, jumping out into the hallway after hearing a scream was exactly precautionary.
