Some hours later, Erik began waking up but had yet to open his eyes. The first thing he felt was a pair of hands and feet clinging to him like a koala. He smirked inwardly, 'I guess Emma burned through her ropes and wanted to hug a little tighter.'
Then he frowned. 'Wait, that doesn't make sense. These limbs are grabbing me from the other side.'
So he finally opened his eyes, only to see that it was Emily, snoring surprisingly cutely while hugging his body closely. He couldn't help but chuckle softly at the usually defiant girl for sleeping this way. Her head was on his shoulder while his arm was wrapped around her, and all four of Emily's limbs were wrapped around him.
Next, he looked to the other side and noticed Emma had already disappeared and left behind some burned ropes. 'I really need to figure out where all these ropes are coming from someday.' He thought.
