    Summary

    Nicky shifts slightly in his sleep, turning from his side onto his back as Joe trails his hand down Nicky’s arm. “Nicolò,” Joe repeats, trying to swallow down the guilt that washes over him and mixes with the raw fear and uneasiness that have been humming under his skin since they left the lab. “Come back to me.”

    or, Joe seeks reassurance that Nicky is still alive and breathing beside him after everything they've been through, and Nicky is more than willing to give it.

    Summary

    You discover a crucial detail about yourself when you are twelve years old; you are a light sleeper. One closing door, a laugh outside or bird flying from their tree branch and you are awake. But those are not the reasons why you are a light sleeper.

    Summary

    Nile notices that Joe isn't sleeping well without Nicky when they are on a separate mission. She buys Joe a body pillow to spoon instead, partially as a joke to cheer him up, but mostly in the hope that it might actually help him get some sleep.
