Room 324, Sunday Evening

Kate felt weird. As if she... was supposed to feel kind of dizzy, but everything was completely clear instead. With a vague buzzing, somewhere in the background. It was probably shock.

She was just going to run with it, for as long as it lasted. Then collapse. Maybe cry. She wasn't thinking about any of that right now. Someone else was her priority.

And that someone was Bod, who'd been using her as a walking aid on their way up from the lobby.

"So, what do you need?" she asked when they'd made it to her room.

Bod didn't say anything else, at least. She knew what he felt and she was crying because of it so he just held her and soothed her as best he could when he was as tired and sore as he was.

"Did you want to try and sleep?" Bod asked quietly, keeping her close, red eyes or not. They were probably twins in that regard,

"Then, let's try," he said, nodding slowly. Sheer exhaustion was pressing him down and while he was afraid of sleeping for too long, he knew he had to sleep at some point.

"Let's try," he said again, moving to settle on his back and gesturing her closer. "We need it."

"Go to sleep," he said, already closing his eyes. He covered her arm with his and sighed. A part of him didn't want to fall asleep but the utterly exhausted part of him wasn't having that anymore.

"Go to sleep," he mumbled again. "We'll feel better."

"I love you too," he mumbled, feeling his breathing evening out and feeling that exhaustion finally start to overwhelm him. Before he knew it, he'd drifted off with those last three words of hers in his ear.
