Michael nodded at her response, a lyric from Joy to the World and put the wards back up on the door. He turned his attention to the book that had fallen to the floor when she had startled at his entrance. He leaned down and picked it up for her, looking at the cover. He hadn't read Peter Pan in quite a while. He sat down on the sofa next to her and held the book out for her to take.
"What are you still doing up?" he asked, trying to keep his voice at a friendly questioning level. At least he hoped he didn't sound annoyed and she did look like she was pretty tired. Of course it wasn't like she had anything to look forward to by going to sleep either so he couldn't exactly fault her for not wanting to. "You didn't need to wait up for me, y'know," he added, even though he had no idea if that was the case or not.
