Neckrubs become a more regular part of Bella's life. And she does not tell him to stop until she is good and done. There is hugging. There is snuggling. There is kissing. There are some impressively sappy looks from his end, some fascinated mindreading from hers. The semester wraps up, Bella goes home for a week, and she comes back (now signed up for Utility Psionics 2, Intro to Mental Healing, Arcane Defense, Intro Cognition, and her survival credit, a lecture entitled "Wilderness Triage" (subtitled: Quick And Dirty Mechanisms For Identifying The Lesser Of Several Evils).
She missed Celo! She seeks him out at once. Hugs.

Anyone walking by this room might be in complete ignorance of what was going on, at least if they were only listening for Bella. She's very quiet, in terms of sound.
Celo's name and everything else she has to say is uttered privately and with distinctly unquiet emphasis.

That is very considerate of him and she appreciates that and also all of the other things he does.

Eventually she is worn out and just wants to cuddle. She might want to cuddle overnight and sneak back to her room in the morning.
Although apart from being exhausted she feels pretty damn good. Not in the obvious way. She also had a kind of a sore throat this morning and it's gone. Huh.

Excellent, that works out nicely.
I feel like I walked through a healing ward and they hit me with everything they had except a spell to remove tiredness. Is that usual?
