A/N: I find it odd that I keep getting ideas for the least likely couples in SW first.

Pairing: Sydney/Embele


Sydney snuck in Embele's room, planning on setting his clock so he'll wake up at a normal time. She reached her arm over by his bed, getting ready to change the clocks settings when a hand reached out and grabbed her arm.


Sydney's voice came out as awkward as she felt. Embele loosened his grip on her arm when he realized who was in his room.

"Sydney…What are you doing in here?"

He finally let go of her arm. She dropped it to her side, not knowing what to do with it. Should she finish fixing his clock? No, that would make things even more awkward.

"I, um...WELL, Embele…"

Embele yawned, relaxing. It looked like he was going to let the question go unanswered. Sydney relaxed slightly.

"Get in with me."

Sydney was confused for a moment before she realized what he meant. She watched as Embele scooted over in the bed, making room for her.

"I-I don't know, Embele. I need to go st-"

Embele didn't even bother to glance out his window, assuming it was dark outside. Sydney really needed to fix his clock.

"It's late. Get in bed with me. Sleep."

Just sleep? She guessed it was fine. She had stayed all night with some of the guys on her dad's crew before.

She slowly got in bed with him. Embele threw an arm around her before going back to sleep.

"..Gotta fix that alarm."
