she nodded, starting to fall asleep again. "I think I like that." she mumbled.

He chuckled softly and laid down next to her, wrapping is arms around her. "Sleep," he whispered gently.

"What if I don't want to?" she asked,opening her eyes again and smiling at him.

"I can trance you into sleep," he smiled softly at her. "All it takes is a thought."

she smiled. "that seems like cheating."

He chuckled and kissed her softly. "Not cheating if it's taking care of you."

She smiled and kissed his cheek. "Thank you, but, I don't think you'll have to make me sleep, I can do it all on my own."

He chuckled. "Can you now," he teased.

"Probably, but, I'd like to stay up, talk with you."

"What would you like to talk about," he asked softly.

"Your favorite things." she said.

"My favorite things... I like music played by piano, flute, and violin. It's relaxing," he admitted.

"Can you play any instruments?" she asked.

"I can play the piano and violin. I never got into the flute, though my mother played beautifully."

"I used to play percussion in highschool. I was good at it too, Haven't played in a long time." she mumbled.

He smiled. "I'd love to hear you play sometime."

She shrugged. "Probably can't anymore." she smiled. "but, I'd rather hear you play piano for me. I love the piano."

He smiled. "I'd love to play for you. There's a piano in my quarters, if you wouldn't mind going. I can play for you now."

She sat up and smiled at him. "I'd love that."

He smiled and took her hand, standing and going to his quarters down the hall. He sat her on his bed and sat down on his piano bench and began playing.

She listened and smiled at him once he was done. She got up and kissed his cheek. "That was amazing."

He smiled at her. "I'm glad you enjoyed it."

Sitting next to him, she ran her fingertips over the keys. "Can you show me how to play something?"

"What do you want to play," he asked, smiling at her.

"Anything easy. I've never played."
