[their foreheads come together and mystery slackens even further, the relaxation flowing through him a lot easier now that he isn't panicking.
his eyes widen slightly at the remark and this time, when his heartbeat skips, it's because of something else. something he's still not sure he can put a name to, but it makes him smile, his head nodding faintly at the suggestion.] I'm going to do the same for you, Baby.
[mystery, albeit reluctantly, does lie back down, one arm draped across his middle while the other tucks underneath the pillow beneath his head. sleep doesn't come as easily as it did before, though whenever baby returns with his snacks, he does feel more at ease with him in the room than when he's not there. how is he going to survive the wait if baby does have to leave? he'll have to find something to distract himself with, something to keep his mind off anything else until baby returns safely.
if only his stupid face would heal faster.
he's about out, the sound of baby's soft shuffling and humming welcome noises while he's half-dozing. eventually, he does fall back asleep, but only after rolling to face baby for the last few moments that his eyes are open.]
