Henry raises his brow and looks at Josh, then looks at Ava. "Quiet. With Josh." He chuckles. "Riiight."

He holds them both tight, lying on the bed.

Josh pouts. "Hey...Ava's louder than I am," he protests, going crimson.

"Yea.. I"m the one that you always find so much fun in making scream.." Avalon teases Henry in a soft tone, his words a touch breathy. Josh's crimson flush makes him laugh softly though, and he sighs out a breath and just tries to relax. Despite the joking, he's still nervous - despite his best efforts not to be.

Henry squeezes Avalon tight. "It's okay, Blue... it's going to be okay. You're not doing this alone." He rubs Avalon's hair back from his face. "Rest up. We've got a big day tomorrow. For now... Josh and I have got you. Sleep."

Josh ends up blushing a bit more. "Not when Ava's dad might come check in on us," he murmurs against the Blue Lantern's skin.

He then glances up at Henry. "Sleeping is for later. Ava's parents are gonna want us to come to the party, right?" he asks, glancing to Avalon.

At Henry's touch, Ava just leans in to the stroking fingers and closes his eyes. He wants to sleep, he really does, but he's just too wound up at the moment to find rest. "I'm not sure. I think that Father is fixing dinner, so we're going to need to show our faces in a bit." replies Avalon.

Henry nods. "For the moment, though... relax. Rest." He strokes Avalon's hair, trying to soothe him.

Josh nods as well. "Yes, rest," he agrees, snuggling himself in closer and gently stroking Ava's chest.
