MCA #0, Late, Late Thursday Night

After the weekend they had, Danny's insomnia was back in force. Which meant that, after some staring at the ceiling and tossing and turning, he was stumbling out of bed to give into the urge to go check on Steve.

Look, the guy got kidnapped. He was allowed to be a little bit anxious about the whole thing. He didn't want to wake the guy if he was sleeping, but it would be good to make sure he was... just to make sure of things, okay?

[for the partner!]

Steve wasn't going to be the first one to talk--possibly ever again, if it stopped things from getting weird--but he did wrap both arms around Danny and hold on tight, closing his eyes.

Maybe if he pretended to be a guy who fell asleep right after it would be okay?

The holding on part sort of ruined it, to be honest. But Danny didn't think telling Steve that would help.

Also, he needed that kind of affection after... whatever they were gonna call what just happened there. Emotional spillover maybe?

As his breathing evened out, Danny actually did feel tired. For a whole variety of reasons, really. He ended up just putting his hand on Steve's chest for what had been the reason he ended up sprawled against Steve's chest in the first place, feeling his heartbeat.

Steve was actually getting drowsy now that the initial endorphin high-slash-mini-panic-attack has worn off, and someone warm in bed who was breathing steadily was enough to knock him out.

In his defense, it had been a very long week.

And it actually worked better than the drugs to go to sleep! You know. Somehow.

Guess who was gonna be taking the damn sleeping pill at least once after this. But for now, Danny was, mercifully and true to their partnership, not too far behind him.
