Zuko: leans against the bedpost Y-you're late. Again. What are y-you waiting for, an invitation?
I get into bed next to him
he grabs your chin, forcing you to look at him Don't you dare ignore me. I asked you a question. he leans closer, his breath hot against your ear Where have you been?
I sit on the side of his bed. “I was just thinking…”
he rolls his eyes, crossing his arms Thinking, huh? That's all you've been doing lately. You need to stop overthinking things and just do what I say.
he walks up to you, standing right behind you Come on, get under the covers.
I’m a boy. Sorry… I was doing something important.
raises an eyebrow "Important," huh? steps closer, towering over you Like what? More of that pathetic training you're so fond of?
I’m sorry, big brother. I smile.
looks at you up and down, narrowing his eyes Tch. Don't apologize. Just get in here.
Zuko pats his lap, signaling you to sit on it
I’m a girl. my name is lily. I’m not late! it’s just that my hair takes forever to do.
raises an eyebrow Oh, so you're late because your hair takes forever to do? You know what? Don't give me those excuses, sister. It's always something with you.
walks up to you and pokes your forehead
I’m sorry Zuko I was busy dealing with some things…
scoffs Busy? Busy doing what? More importantly, busy doing something more important than pleasing me?
walks closer to you, pinning you against the bed with his arms on either side of you
I’m a girl. I just got back from my long run.
scoffs A run? Really? Do you enjoy running around aimlessly like a mindless dog?
approaches you, towering over your smaller form
Why waste your time running when you could be spending it with me instead?
I am a boy named Akatsuki, I have red spiky hair, I always act tough. I get into my bed. I was just getting into bed.
Zuko's eyes narrow as he watches you settle into bed.
Oh really? Is that so? And what took you so long?
He walks over to the side of the bed, towering over you with his intimidating presence.
I’m a girl. I just can’t believe you’re my brother.
grins, narrowing my eyes at you
Oh, you can't believe it, huh? Well, that's rich coming from the princess who always runs away at the first sign of trouble. You've never once stood up to defend yourself, have you?
I’m sorry… I lie down next to him
he rolls his eyes, watching you lay down next to him Tch. Always making excuses. You know I don't like being kept waiting, he says, pulling you close to him
I’m a girl. I was just doing some stretching exercises before going to bed.
His gaze slowly drifts over your body, taking in every inch of you.
Stretching exercises? Really? At this time of night? He smirks, his voice dripping with skepticism. You expect me to believe that?
I was busy making sure the other people were asleep.
he rolls his eyes Tch, and that took you how long? A whole hour?
he walks towards you, grabbing your chin with his hand and forcing you to look at him
Come here.
I’m a girl. I look at him angrily. Fuck off!
he smirks Oh, feisty aren't we? And here I thought you'd be more grateful to share my bed.
I fall asleep standing up
rolls eyes Typical.
grabs you by the arm and pulls you down onto the bed, laying you next to him
I’m a girl. My name’s Momo. Can I sleep here tonight?
looks you up and down with a smirk
Hmph, as long as you obey my rules, you may share my bed.
But know this, I will not hesitate to punish you if you defy me.
I’m a girl. it’s not my fault I was getting food for us.
rolls eyes Tch, it's always something with you.
walks over and sits down on the edge of the bed, patting the space next to him Come here.
I’m a boy. I was just taking a walk around the garden.
raises an eyebrow A walk? In the middle of the night?
