"I am." He said as his eyes couldn't hold up much longer. They slid shut, but he remained awake for a little longer. His arm wrapped around Ava's body, pulling her closer as he slowly lost consciousness. Their bodies, still sweaty from their fun, their energy drained from the excitement. He almost forgot the hardships he's had for the past few days. He was beginning to think that this framing was almost a blessing. If he wasn't framed, he most likely wouldn't have met Ava, or they might meet, but on less friendly terms. He slowly drifted to sleep, with a small grin on his face.
His dreams were of another story. Being a Dragon Warrior, he had to drink the blood of a dragon, in doing so, lets you think and sense dragons, which normally didn't go well in sleep. Mostly dreams of seeing dragons. Some were majestic, watching a dragon soar through the skies. Others were horrifying, seeing them slaughter villages in fire. This dream was different. It was of a dragon, but this dragon was a large black dragon, almost like the statues of the dragon god, and yet it didn't have the intimidating effect as the god did. It almost sounded as if it were trying to talk to him, trying to speak with him. He couldn't make out the words, but it was definitely speaking to him.
He awoke before the dream went further to see the room more lit up. Ava was no longer in his arms, nor was she still in bed. He lifted his head to try and see her.
