Stay with me

Frozen in place, Nix blinked a few times. Scratching his eyes, he had to make sure her presence wasn't just a figment of his imagination.

She sat on the chair laid back, her right leg over the other, with her gaze intently on him.

He hadn't seen her in a while, so he hoped it was just his wishful thinking.

"It is I, Lumina, the one and only person you refer to as pretty!" She said in self absorption, clarifying she was indeed real.

"What are you doing here?" He gave a nervous chuckle, hoping to steer the topic away from him.

With a raised brow, Lumina narrowed her eyes even further.

"Hmmm..."

Looking anywhere but her, he did wonder how long she had been there.

"I just came in not too long. Thinking it might be nice to rest up a little after the strange event of today," she began, almost as if she could read his thoughts, "I had thought I might catch a thief while at it."

"Haha good one." He said with a straight face.
