Charlie is in the room when Claire comes up, listening to his iPod and looking through his oldest notebook. He puts both aside when she comes in and smiles. "Hey, stranger."

She does feel light. Not bothered by the cumbersomeness of her belly, or the constant little stresses her body feels since she's been pregnant. She is in the cloud, happy, warm. Waiting.

He trails his fingers down her spine. Admittedly, this is usually the part where clothes start coming off, but Claire's not his. So very not his.

He kisses the back of her neck and whispers, "Sleepy?"

She shivers slightly and hums again. Easing onto her back carefully, she peers at him through heavy lashes. Sleepy. Yes.

Safe with Charlie.

He smiles at her uncertainly and pulls up the duvet to tuck it around her. He kisses her forehead and gets off the bed, to get his sweatpants and t-shirt from the dresser and go into the bathroom to change.

He comes back in a few mintues, turns off the light and crawls into bed beside her. His hand squeezes hers for a moment.

She is in that hazy place between sleep and waking, but she feels his hand on hers and she smiles.

"G'ni," she murmurs, asleep before she can finish the word.

"Good night," he answers quietly and wills himself to sleep.
