When night approched, Knight saw to himself figuring the boy had earned a night of well rested sleep and sought his own bed.

Adam shifted, strangled moans of displeasure escaping him as clips of the beginning of his life as a slave played in his nightmares. The fear, the hurt, the utter confusion -- they were all feelings he hadn't felt since then.

Knight awoke to the sound and tried to blank it out and refused to be too much of a bastard after what he'd done. Finally, when he could stand the sounds no longer, he moved from the bed and lifted the boy up. Placing him in his bed and covering him up with the warmth of his blankets, he crawled in behind him.

Adam didn't wake up, but his mind caught the smell that wrapped around him from the sheets he was now buried in and his nightmare took a turn toward the present. "No," he mumbled, "please don't...only thing I have...don't take it...out...out...don't take it..."

Knight felt guilt creep into him in addition to something else. Something that had him pulling the boy into his arms and mumbling a soft, "I'm sorry."

"No...why..." Adam mumbled before falling into a silent sleep in his master's arms.

Knight stared down at him for a long moment before sighing and and settling down to sleep behind the lad.

Adam's mind went blank for the rest of the night.

Knight slept well into the morning. Having never been a morning person, the warmth before him only encouraged his urge to stay abed.

Adam's eyes fluttered open a while later. At first he didn't realize where he was until the warmth on his back made him quickly jump away. Without even thinking, he'd kicked Knight hard and sent him off the bed.

"Sonofabitch!" Knight growled at the abrupt pain in his back only to realize as his eyes flared open that he was in the floor. Having just awoken, he was confused and it didn't occur to him what had happened.

Adam wrapped himself in the sheet and stared with violet eyes wide.

With a sigh, figuring he had fallen out of bed, he pulled himself back atop the covers and onto his stomach, his face buried in the pillows. He didn't even seen to notice Adam, much less care that he was there. Knight really, really was not a morning person.

Adam sat still for a few moments before suddenly glaring at the man on the bed. Purposefully this time, he kicked his leg out so to tumble Knight off the bed again.

Knight didn't tumble off the bed this time but he did grunt at the impact. Raising his head up, he snarled at the younger man. "You kick me again and I'll spank that perfect ass of yours. Now lay the hell back down and go to sleep."
