Room 406, evening

Saturday had been busy, but today had been even busier. Isabel had had a very busy day. In fact it had been so busy that Wyatt didn't catch up with her until he handwavily found her in the common room with the polar bear. They went back to her room where Isabel managed to get herself cleaned up (although there might have still been some blue eye shadow smeared in the corners of her eyes) and dressed in her penguin pajamas. That was when she got the bright idea to make a phone call.

Once Wyatt hung up the phone, Isabel yawned once more. "I'm tired."

"Can you tell me a story?" she asked as she snuggled into the blankets and reached for her alien bear. "Ino didn't like my story today. She said no one gets happy ever after."

"Sure," Wyatt said. He turned off the lights but left Isabel's star lamp on. He didn't know if she would be scared of the dark at this age but he didn't want to risk it. "What kind of story do you want?"

Leaving the light on was definitely a good idea. Isabel yawned, "Something about a dragon and a knight who saves the princess." Hopefully it would be a short story. Because Isabel wasn't going to last long.

"All right," Wyatt said. "Once upon a time there was a beautiful princess with long golden hair. She was trapped in a tower by a wicked enchantress, and the tower was guarded by a dragon. Many knights tried to save the princess, but they were too frightened of the dragon and his fiery breath and his sharp teeth and claws, and they would flee. But one knight, Sir Wyatt, was not afraid."

"Brave, brave, brave Sir Wyatt," she murmured, already half asleep.

Wyatt tucked the blankets around Isabel. "That's right, he was brave. And brave Sir Wyatt faced the dragon with his mighty sword, and after a fierce battle, he slew the dragon and rescued the princess from the tower."

Isabel was asleep. Dreaming of knights and maidens and happily ever afters.

"And they lived happily ever after," Wyatt finished. He bent his head to kiss Isabel on the forehead, then stood and moved over to the free bed. Hopefully when he woke up in the morning, Isabel would be Isabel-sized again.
