Izzie's breath hitched as she tried to stop her tears, and she listened carefully as Archie accepted her revelation and--okay. He wasn't mad at her, he was actually laughing. Probably a bit at her, but Isobel was just going to pretend he found something else funny. Getting annoyed at being embarrassed really wasn't worth it at this point.
Her grip on him hadn't loosened, and she nodded a few times, blinking away what she could and now, that everything was out in the open and she wasn't holding what felt like The Secret on her shoulders, Izzie just wanted to lie down and sleep for a week. Probably wouldn't be able to, though, and she looked down at Archie.
"I just want to sleep," she admitted, sniffling. She turned to him a bit, knees pushing against his chest, and for a second Izzie noticed how proposal-like his stance was. She bit the inside of her cheek, but push those other terrifying thoughts away. "If--if I tell you about Christmas at the Eggs, you'll fall asleep too."
