Sage grinned over at the girl with a slight chuckle. "I'm not that dumb," he admitted. "Though, in my opinion, flirting with you takes brain power so I can't be in too much pain." His reasoning was much different than Anyas...really the extent of his pain didn't really affect him in terms of flirting with the girl. He flirted more than he originally thought he would... He supposed actually liking the person you flirted with made you likely to do it more. Among other things. He shrugged lightly and gave the girl a wide grin. "Maybe you could makee feel better," he giggled, fully intending to tease the girl about it. No doubt she'd retaliate and completely fluster him, but that was kinda part of the plan.

Anya shook her head slightly and gave an amused chuckle. She was all for him teasing and flirting, but in truth she just couldn't find a way to retaliate. Her face kind of just flushed up and she went a little quiet, though there was a huge grin on her face. "Brain power, really? It's not exactly hard to flirt with me," she hummed with a slightly nervous chuckle she gave a smile. She'd normally jump in there to carry on their flirting, maybe get Sage a little flustered, but she just found herself a little... almost shy, really. She wasn't sure why he was flirting, maybe he was just bored, but it was also late and he still probably wasn't in the right state of mind. The girl perched on the other bed and flicked a couple of pages in on her book before glancing up. "Sage, my love, how do you propose I do that?" She hummed, though there was a slight hint of a purr in her voice. The first bit was really just teasing the boy.

Sage could feel the blush spreading over his face when she asked the question, and he blinked a few times before giving the girl a grin. "I believe that would be up to the very pretty princess," he chuckled, using the whole pretty princess things as their little joke, though she was really very pretty and, in fact, a princess. He could hear the purr in her voice, and he fully intended to tease the girl more, if he could manage it....at least until he got a few more kisses. Wow, maybe his brain really was fried. It was an amusing thought, though he obviously didn't mind. If it was fried that badly it just made it easier to flirt with the girl.

The girl chuckled and rolled her eyes. She would normally be happy to play along with his flirting, but of course she was hesitant. Very hesitant. The doctor is still about, and she wasn't sure if Charlottes parents would show up... or her own, for that matter. The girl just looked into her book and started skimming through after getting comfortable on the other bed. "If it were up to me, you wouldn't be in a doctors ward with bullet wounds and then we might be able to play," she hummed before putting the book back down. "So, I'll ask again..." she murmured, and almost thoughtful look crossed her face, "What can I do to make you feel better," she asked with a slightly cocked head, though her flirty purr wasn't as noticeable... still there, just not quite so noticeable.

Sage chuckled slightly and shrugged. "Well I wasn't planning on getting shot either," he admitted. "Though, a bit of fun would distract me," he chirped. He gave the girl a wide grin and pointed to the curtain. "Put Charlotte down and we'll have privacy," he giggled in a slightly more flirty purr of a voice than Anya. Though, of course if the girl was really just uncomfortable with it, they didn't have to do much...they could just cuddle. But he was going to get at least another kiss out of the girl, he'd set his mind on that one.

The girl sighed and have a slight smile before standing up, "but you two are so cute," she complained in a childish tone before carefully wrapping her arms around the girl, careful to hold her in a way that wouldn't hurt her before wandering a few beds over, back to the one she was in originally before placing her back down and tucking her in under the covers with the teddy she'd pleaded for. She made sure the girl was comfortable before wandering back over to Sage, but not before drawing the curtains around his bed so they had a little more... privacy. She wasn't planning on much, mainly because she didn't want to hurt Sage anymore, and partly because he'd probably tire himself out quicker than he normally would. She just wanted to cuddle and get comfortable but if Sage wanted to, she was happy to play around for a little bit. "Sage, can we just cuddle? I don't want you to like... hurt." She murmured in an almost sheepish tone from where she was standing. Edited at November 5, 2022 06:27 AM by Belle

Sage chuckled and shrugged. "I don't care what we do," he admitted. "I've just barely seen you the past few weeks." He gave her a bit of a sheepish grin. "I'm more than fine with just some cuddles and kisses," he chuckled, scooting over as best he could so the girl had a little bit of room. In all honesty he'd most likely end up falling asleep once they got comfortable, but still...it was something, and he did want to spend some time with Anya.

The girl smiled and almost skipped over before slipping in next to him, instantly curling into his chest. He was right... they'd barely seen each other for a long while, and it would be nice just to cuddle up. The girl let her head rest just on his collar before pressing a soft kiss to his chest, "I've missed you, you know," she murmured gently before wrapping an arm around his side. "It's been a little strange, like seeing you but not being able to actually stop and talk," the girl hummed with a slight chuckle, the girl let out a soft sigh before brushing her lips just over his as an inviting kiss. "It's even weirder seeing you like this... shot, again, I mean."

Sage smiled and leaned into the girl's comforting presence with a soft sigh. "Yeah, we've both been so busy," he murmured, thinking of the past few weeks. He wouldn't have changed much, they're gone well, but...swing Anya a bit more would have been nice. "I'll be fine soon." He tilted his chin up to press a kiss against the girls lips in response to her more .. inviting touch, a soft smile forming on his face as she wrapped her arms around him and he was able to cuddle up comfortably.

The girl nodded slightly and pressed another kiss to his jaw before settling down again to get comfortable. "I hope so... you're not leaving the castle until you're all better. So if you want to get back out into the slums, you'd better hurry up and get better," she teased lightly before reaching a hand up to mess with his hair again, this time more for herself. It truth, Sage just... well, being Sage was a huge stress relief for the girl. His voice, his touch, and even just his very presence was, to put it frankly, her everything. The boy meant so much to her, and if she was honest she wasn't sure how to express that. She looked up at the boy after a little silence. "Have I told you bloody adorable you are with Charlotte? You're so good with her," Anya giggled, although she knew for a fact she'd already mentioned.
