Even before he'd fallen asleep, Billy had wrapped an arm around Mike's torso, drawing him closer. But in their sleep, he'd tangled himself completely around the other man. He hadn't expected to fall quite so deeply asleep himself, since he'd managed to squeeze in a few hours. But listening to Mike's slow rise and fall of breath, he was lulled into deep slumber as well.
For possibly the first time since he'd he'd taken on this job, he slept without awful dreams. There were pleasant snippets, but those slipped away from him even before he woke, leaving his sleep quiet and restful.
It wasn't until Mike stirred that he even started to wake. Slowly piecing consciousness together. He made an incoherent sound, a vague question, as one eye slowly opened. The other would have, as well, but his face was more or less buried in the pillow. He muttered something that between the pillow and his semi-consciousness was difficult to understand but was meant to be "So much for ten minutes." He curled his arm tighter around Mike, pulling him closer.
