Overslept

Jeff lets Katie back away and one would think he would take the cue and leave, but he didn't. "Hey... this is me you're talking to."

He reaches out and turns her back around to face him. "Does it look like I have anything else to worry about right now?" He gestures to himself. "This is nothing. Let me be here for you, kiddo. Please?"

Katie...
The emotions were cautious... hesitant... mild.
Rick and I are waiting...


Ryder gives a little groan as he stretches and yawns on the couch. For a moment, he didn't remember where he was and why he wasn't in his bed. Then feeling the weight of Thirteen's head, he remembers, and avoids tossing her about.

"Hey you," he speaks quietly. He runs a hand sleepily through her hair. "I think we overslept."
