Summary
Stupid thoughts like "if she were on our side, Hilda and Leonie wouldn't let her get away with not sleeping" started running through his mind. Dangerous thoughts. He'd already fucked up once by musing to her aloud a whimsy about her having picked him over Dimitri. She'd played that off with grace and a sad, but fond stare. His wounded ego throbbed at the thought of ripping his chest open again before her. And besides...it would be incredibly selfish of him to make her fragile state about him.
"Say, Byleth. Could I perhaps interest you in playing hooky with me tonight? I've gotta bottle of vintage wine with our names on it. And it would be nice to catch up a bit before we head our separate ways."
