Javier lay sprawled on his bed, completely relaxed after a satisfying dinner. The warm glow of the bedside lamp cast a soft light across the room.
As he glanced toward the door, he saw Liana stepping in from her bedroom, her graceful movements as natural as ever.
Javier grinned, tapping the empty space beside him. "Liana, Liana~ Here, here~ Ehehehe~"
Liana sighed softly, shaking her head at his antics. "Young Master, you're already twelve. Do you still need me to sleep beside you every night?"
Javier pouted dramatically. "Oi! Don't say it like that! You know I can't sleep without you!"
Liana let out a small chuckle, already expecting this response. She walked over, sitting on the edge of the bed before slipping under the blanket beside him. "Yes, yes… I know, Young Master."
Javier instantly snuggled closer, resting his head against her shoulder. "Mmm~ This is the best~"
