It'll take time-Barbatos pt. 3

                                    

                                          
I was in my room relaxing after cleaning all morning, and trying to calm down after what happened with barbatos. I was laying in my bed replaying the moment with barbatos in my head. The feeling of him against my back, his head on my shoulder, and him holding my hands, I could still feel it so vividly. It was so comforting and relaxing that I accidentally fell asleep. 
BARBATOS POV: 
It was almost time for me to prepare dinner, it was actually an hr before I usually started but i I wanted more time to actually help Y/N. At least that what I had to tell myself. Though my original intent is to help her, part of me felt that there was another reason. I still can't figure out this feeling I've felt since after our moment in the kitchen. 
Actually, I felt a hint of this feeling even before that moment. When I first met her, something about her made me feel feelings that were close that I felt for the young lord, but it also felt different? I felt the need to protect her, always be there, help her whenever she needed something, and to take care of her to the best of my ability. I was so distracted thinking of them again that I hadn't realized I arrived at her room. 
I knocked on the door, but there was no answer, I knocked one more time and when there again was no answer I got worried and walked in. I sighed in relief when I had seen her asleep in her bed. I walked over to her and contemplated waking her up, bringing her dinner later and just teaching her tomorrow. While I was contemplating I unknowingly took off my glove and  placed my hand on there cheek. My brain switched from think of waking her, to thinking of joining her. I froze, shocked that I this thought came into my head, but came back when I saw her squirm. 
I quickly took my hand away, putting my glove back on, and stood up straight again excepting her to wake up, which she did. But before she could completely she put her hand on the cheek my hand was on and acted as if she was trying to hold it. I was happy that I had moved my hand so she wouldn't know what I did. But I also regretted it wishing that she had actually held it. 
YOUR POV: 
I was woken by the nice feeling of a hand on my cheek. I reached to grab it but there was no hand there I stretched and looked around to see who was there. And to my surprise, and happiness, barbatos was standing there. I immediately thought that it was him who's hand I felt, but when I looked at his hands both his gloves were on. It didn't take me long to wake up and notice him so I didn't think he could put his glove on that quickly. I thought that I was just imagining things because of the feeling of him touching me from earlier. 
"Oh, hi barbatos, what are you doing here" I said while sitting up in bed, still very tired. He sat down next to me, "well I was going to come get you to so that I could teach you how to make dinner. I had knocked but you didn't answer so I came in to make sure you were ok just to find you peaceful sleeping". "Oh sorry, I I completely forgot about dinner. Why didn't you wake me? I hope you didn't wait long" I quietly said while trying not to fall back asleep. 
"Don't apologize, I waited a while contemplating wether I should wake you. You did very well today and you deserve to rest. So are you up to more training"? His voice faded towards the end of the sentence, his voice and presence was nice, and I was so tired.
BARBATOS POV: 
As I finished my sentence I felt something hit my shoulder. I looked over to see Y/N asleep on my shoulder, she slightly nuzzled her face into my shoulder. I was about to get up to lay her down, but when I tried to she wrapped her arm around mine. I wanted to try and get her off but I was worried that I'd wake her she's obviously exhausted. I took out my ddd with my other hand and saw I had an hr and half til I had to prepare dinner. 
So I layed back on the bed gently pulling her down with me, as I did this she turned over and put her arm over my torso. I slightly turned to my side and put my arm around her holding her close. When I did this the feeling I've been feeling got stronger, I held her tighter  feeling as though if I didn't something would happen to her. I had started processing what feeling I was feeling. It felt as if it was love, I didn't think it was fully possible for me to feel this way, but I was.
I laid there holding her close and trying to process and confirm how I was feeling. I didn't think it was possible that I loved her, I knew her for a day. I had heard of love at first sight but I didn't think it was possible, especially for me. Love was the only way I can describe how I feel, but I feel I need more time to confirm. I checked my ddd and saw that it was time to go make dinner. I carefully removed her from me and layed her correctly in bed and made sure she was comfortable. 
I had gone down stairs and started cooking while thinking. "I'm not quite sure if this is love, especially this early on. I will see her once every week after she moves to the House of Lamentations. I'll take these times to get to know her more and try to confirm if I truly do love her. 
It'll take time, but I feel it will be worth it"
