It's hard for her to explain to him why she doesn't think that will happen. How the first man she thought she loved made her feel normal, how one man's made her feel like she's worth something, and how a girl made her feel like her life had sucked.
But nobody's ever made her feel like she was okay, just how she is. That Gazlene Membrane is enough, all on her own. That's Erik's gift, that's why he's an angel to her. Being with him makes her feel like a better version of herself. A version that's accepted and cared for, regardless.
So when he says she'll get sick of him, she can't help but smile. "Don't worry about that so much, Erik."
His question about drugs makes her wish she didn't, so she wouldn't disappoint him. "Nothing that my doctor doesn't prescribe to help me sleep. I drink some." She nods at the glass of scotch in his hand. "Sometimes I forget I'm not supposed to take my sleeping pills and drink when I take them. I have a high tolerance." She supposes she'll never accidentally OD again, what with the fast healing.
