Steve tensed a little when he heard Lil's voice. He thought that was all a dream. That him asking her to stay was in his head. But when she moved closer, laying her head on his shoulder, he relaxed. It was nice and very comforting. He slipped an arm around her and pulled her a little closer.
"Yeah. It's fine, though. Go back to sleep, okay?" He kissed her forehead, sighing just a little. He knew he wouldn't get back to sleep any time soon but that was no reason for her to stay awake.
