To watch her sleep like that, so quiet and peaceful, maybe even happy, it was as much as he could ask for. It was such moments that made him truly glad to be able to open the gate to the human world by himself without her knowing about it. So he could come to her room every night and watch over her. She would be furious if she ever found out. She would probably call him a pervert and a creep. But is it wrong to want to protect somebody whom you truly care about? Especially when they are so vulnerable? She would shout yes and kick his butt out of her apartment directly into the spirit world.

That thought made him smile a little. It was a sad smile.

He knew very well that he shouldn't be here.

It wouldn't end well for him.

Either way.
