  1. She stayed like that for a long time, zoning out but continuing to stroke his hair.
  2. "May I treat you to a meal? Please? You need to eat."
  3. Rex kissed his forehead softly and continued humming, trying to lull him back to sleep.
  4. "Maybe, but sleeping is more important." She went back to stroking his hair and forehead, humming softly to him.
  5. "Then can I take you somewhere for a meal and maybe you can tell me about all this? When was the last time you ate something?"
  6. "Please, let me help."
  7. She rested her fingertips against his lips and found herself smiling. "You can't sleep if you're smiling."

  9. "And that would be my choice."
  10. "Shhh... go back to sleep..." She soothed quietly, smoothing over one eyebrow with her thumb.

  16. "You think I can't take care of myself?"
  17. "I could try, but I think we'd both sleep better laying down." But I still want to be close to you... She added to herself.
  18. "How do you know? You haven't told me anything."
  19. "Okay... I think I can do that. Do you want to sleep sitting up?" She asked.
  20. "Probably."
  21. "Freya... Can you tell me what's happening? Maybe I can help you?"
  22. "Who said you have too?"
  23. He slowed and came alongside her.
  24. "I think you do." She trailed her hand down his jaw, fingers brushing the faint stubble on his chin.
  25. "Freya! Please?"
