[Once he starts talking about his relatively boring life in Ohio, it's at least pretty easy to continue. Relatively easy talking about how he ditched class, how he got in fights with bullies, not to mention the trouble that he ran into with teachers. It's all stuff that really pissed him off when he was still attending school there, but just like the bully from before, it feels so unimportant now. He's here, far from home, with the girl he loves the most possibly dying right in front of him.
Scott only really stops talking when he sees her eyes slowly close, words passing through trembling lips when her breathing evens out and signaling her sleep. His body wants to sleep too, but he's determined to stay awake. To sit here with her and gaze down at her until the next day. He's not sure what to expect, whether she'll simply fade away, if her body will become cold, but... he'll do his best. He promised her.
He's fighting against the pull of his body's exhaustion when the sound of his name snaps his eyes open, immediately awake-- almost like getting an adrenaline boost. Heart thudding in his chest, he looks down at the confused expression of his girlfriend and he almost starts crying again, right then and there.]
Hey. [He sounds exhausted, he looks as such too, even though his shades help a lot with covering that. But really no matter how tired he actually feels, it's nothing compared to the surge of relief, his chest breaking in an entirely different way from seeing Kotone awake and alive on his lap. His hand tightens in hers-- to the point of being shy of painful, but he is so, so overwhelmed seeing her eyes open once more.]
M-Morning sleepyhead. [Don't mind his voice cracking there.]
