*hears the mewing noises and wakes up**not wanting to leave the confines of the cage in the dark since Kagura could be there**listens to the mewing noises for a while, wanting to comfort her**slowly moves to the end of the cage**doesn't see anything moving in the dark**creeps out of the cage and over to Ayame**lays down next to her**strokes her cheek, wanting to comfort her but a bit afraid to wake her up*

*making a happy little noise in her sleep, feeling comforted just by having him there, waking up a little more after a moment and blinking at him with big, sleepy eyes* Miroku-kun...! You... You came out? *smiling a little, then realizing she was doing embarrassing things in her sleep and blushing really brightly* Oh... *still blushing, but hazarding another shy smile in his direction, so he knows she's still happy with him*

You seemed upset and... I didn't want to wake you... and I thought it might be okay... *can see the shy smile, but it's too dark to notice the blush**can tell that she's embarrassed by something* Where you dreaming?

I didn't want to go inside your cage, unless you asked me to. *nodding seriously* Oh... *nodding some more, a little shy again* I was having a dream... and I didn't like it very much... *small pout*
