She laid her head back on the couch, "You take the bed." She said softly. "This should be more yours with your credentials in the Security field, than mine." She was a bit tired from the party after the dance with him and then the drinking consumption while he met with others. He was more use to that and she knew this, which made her feel bad about being more shy and less social able. She wanted to learn more from him, but kept it to herself.
He shook his head at her as he sat in one of her chairs with the coffee, "No, I will not. I do want to make sure you're okay."
"I'm fine" she waved him off and he chuckled a little. She looked at him, "Seriously, this should be yours not mine."
"Are you offering me to stay or are you flirting with me, Commander?" He raised an eyebrow.
She sighed, "Stay." She said softly as he brushed a strand of hair out of her face and she smiled.
"I'll stay, but I'd rather have company always and I feel less alone with you." He struggled with the words, "I don' t want you to go nor to leave you, when I don't have to..." He looked to her as they held each other's hands.
"It's okay." She yawned, "we can see where things go." She had fallen asleep and he settled into the chair, watching her until he dozed as well.
"Of course," He smiled.
