Arum awoke to the glow of vurms. He could barely remember anything about last night, and his head felt like it was full of throbbing fog. He groaned and felt someone skin to skin beside him and panic fleeted across his face untill he realized it was Feather next to him. Then he seriously regretted not being able to remember much from the night before. Damn that drink had drove him nuts... He turned over to face her, smiling in contentment as he looked at her face.
"Hey Arum?" he heard from behind his ear. Adam was kneeling by the side of the bed, resting his chin on his folder arms infront of him. "Aren't you guys cold?"
Arum froze. There's a kid in here! There's a kid in here!
Then he heard the groan from behind Feather. Tynan sat up, stark naked, rubbing the sleep from his eyes. Arum sat up in shock, staring at Tynan in petrified disbelief as Adam was forgotten. Tynan made a startled sound what went "Gggh!" as his jaw dropped and he stared at Arum sitting naked on the otherside of Feather.
Locked in their shocked stare, Feather chose that moment to wake up too, sitting up and stretching her arms up in between them. They were all naked. Adam looked at them with innocence in his eyes. "You guys should have just taken my blanket," he said, nodding his head towards the jumble of Araawan toys, cushions and blankets he had fallen asleep in while playing. Their eyes turned towards the boy as if he were the onslaught of death itself. "Then you wouldn't have had to hug eachother all night to keep warm."
Tynan paled and went "GGGH!!" Then with a surprising presence of mind, he picked up the boy while saying very quickly, "IthinkyoushouldgooutandplaythismorningAdam! Theresagoodboy!" The door slammed behind Adam. It was at this point that Arum unfroze and screamed.
