I don't even know what MTV is. [ he doesn't watch a lot of television, could you tell? he got his entertainment from other places like...standing at attention for long periods of time, exercising or reading. quite the exciting life he led but it allowed him to keep her safe so he wasn't complaining.
when her head comes to a rest against his shoulder, he stills. he probably should not be allowing this to happen because he is an employee and she is technically his employer. this is a little closer than they should be but she just looks so weary and he knows that today could not have been easy.
so, he doesn't make her move. he lets her stay as she is and focuses on not jostling her. ] You can close your eyes, if you would like. I'll be awake.
[ he would make the bellboy leave the food just outside the door and get it later, if it came to that. ]
[ famous last words uttered by a girl who probably would fall asleep before the first thirty minutes of the movie were up, but she's making it her story and sticking to it for now. stubborn as ever. ]
Is it uncomfortable?
[ because she can adjust. she can lay on her stomach, if he'd prefer she not touch him. he probably would prefer that, she thinks, but it's not reason enough to move. or maybe she doesn't want to. she's trying not to think about it too much. ]
I didn't say that. [ he lowers his voice and shakes his head. ] You're fine.
[ if this is what helps her relax and calm down after today, he's going to let her have it. maybe it is not completely appropriate and maybe he should ask her to create some distance but he doesn't. because this soothes his nerves as well. it shouldn't, it really should not, but he can't help how he feels.
what he can do is keep it to himself. so, he sighs and glances over at her. ]
Relax. [ if she's not going to sleep, so be it. but he does want her to calm down after everything that's happened today. ]
[ that much is true, at least. her breathing is steady, her limbs feel loose, and she can feel his chest rising and falling as she leans in against him. she's indisputably relaxed for the first time all day. ]
You're very warm.
[ maybe that's because he's a giant man with a jacket on indoors. ]
[ but, he doesn't really notice temperatures especially in relation to himself. he's trained himself to work in high heat and extreme cold so sitting in a warm room in a jacket doesn't phase him. if it helps her though, then all the better. he sighs and peers down at her once more. ]
Go to sleep.
[ because he knows that is going to happen whether she likes it or not. he's been around her long enough to know that she can and will fall asleep in a manner of seconds if she's comfortable and/or exhausted enough. ]
