Cutter should have known that fighting off sleep would be harder this time around. He had already gotten so used to falling asleep with Adelaide in his arms that It had been hard to avoid sleep. He had focused on watching her sleep for the most part, drifting off for a few hours and waking up from nightmares. Every time he woke up he expected to find her gone, every time she shifted in her sleep he woke up, waiting for her to attack him or Rodeo. So far it hadn't happened and he was grateful for every minute they got. The whole situation was awkward, he was pretty sure there wasnt any protocol for normal circumstances, but now? How does someone go about telling his best friend that he was falling for his little sister that could turn into a zombie any day now?
It was still early, according to his watch, and he had just woken up from another nightmare. How he had managed to keep quiet he didn't know, usually he would toss and turn and wake up with a sore throat that had him suspect that he had been screaming. Seeing Adelaide's face next to him, still pale but very much alive, helped him calm down and he reached out to carefully remove a stray strand of hair from her face. Once he felt her skin under his fingers he found it very hard to pull his hand away so he let it linger, his thumb lightly stroking her cheek.
