Nocturne Summit Easy to be just you and me

Finally they were able to part, and Charon came to stand at her side. Her heart sped up a little at his gentle touch, and she nodded in response to his question, a tired smile curving her lips slightly. She liked the idea of rest. She was honestly a little emotionally raw from everything she had just experienced, and she liked the thought of being curled up against his his strong, warm body; it sounded safe, and she wouldn't have to think about anything else just yet. 

She would wait for him to settle and then silently curl up against him. Sleep wouldn't be too far off then; her eyelids were already heavy, and she was mentally exhausted and would welcome the relief sleep would bring her. She would follow his lead going forward and stay for as long as he thought necessary before returning back to cold, harsh reality.
