A Mutual Understanding
With everyone having left the great hall, Bella and Osman were left behind on their lonesome, both of them staring at each other as if waiting for the other to start the conversation.
"Shall we grab some coffee?" Osman suddenly asked.
"Don't you want to rest early?" Bella asked back.
Osman chuckled as he shook his head. "I don't want to sleep just yet after having seen an opportunity to be with you in private like this," he directly stated. "Besides, I'm far from being sleepy at the moment."
"Looks like your alcohol tolerance is really quite impressive," Bella murmured as she let Osman escort her to a table near the open balcony of the great hall. Upon arriving, she couldn't help but smile at the view they now had of the snowy night.
