Lanse wasn't sure how long he stood there, holding Silvia as she cried. But she eventually tired out, and he smiled as she rested on his shoulder. He raised his hand and patted her head gently, reassuringly as she slumbered. He held her there for a moment, enjoying her warmth. But eventually, his gaze wandered, settling upon the small horse ears atop her head.

''I shouldn't. I really shouldn't. Not while she's asleep. Not EVER, for that matter!''

...Damn it.

He took one of Silvia's ears between his fingers and rubbed it gently, feeling the texture. He didn't think that he'd touched them enough for her to wake up, but he still felt both horrible and elated for doing it. If she were to wake up right now...he didn't know how he would explain himself.
