[With his free hand, he plays with her hair a little, smiling softly as she snuggles against him. Despite her best efforts, she seemed to enjoy the more domestic things.]

[He picks the first thing that comes to mind, an adventure from a few years ago involving the time six of his most tenacious enemies banded together to defeat him, and how he used his wits and skills to take them all down.
After a few minutes, he looks down, fairly certain he's put Bela right to sleep.]
[Gradually, her resistance to acting so domesticated had weakened over time. Apart from that, Peter is warm and comfortable that it make it harder for Bela not to want that closeness.]
Mmm...
[Comes her soft reply as she listens, trying to follow along with his story and not really caring if Peter was embellishing it or not. It was just nice to hear his voice and have him in one piece, even if he still had some healing to do.
He's right about her falling asleep to his words. Not quite a deep sleep but it would take some prodding from him to stir Bela from it.]
[Her breathing was getting deeper, and her head was nestled right in the crook of his arm. She looked so comfortable, it made Peter a bit jealous.
He stopped talking to give her a kiss on the top of her head, affection obvious in his eyes. Peter leans back on the headboard, looking up at the ceiling with a sigh.]

Thanks, Bela.
