[He thought it would be possible to sleep and yet he lays there, his hand in hers, and waits for the silence to lull him into his subconscious. He finds hearing her breathing to be calming enough but his mind keeps turning over thoughts that they had shared and he finds he can't turn his mind off and will himself to sleep.
Sighing, he forces himself to get comfortable again, his hand staying in hers as he does. Luckily this wouldn't be something he would have to get used to. He was doing her a favor - both of them, really. If he had left her alone she would have kept on filling his head with her screaming thoughts. Now she was blissfully devoid of them.
Looking down at her, he wonders - not for the first time - how this damned girl could get under his skin so easily. Carefully, he tucks her blanket comfortably against her curled up form while he watches her sleep. Seeing her at ease was slowly starting to put him at ease and he felt his eyes drift shut again.]
