Gale awoke the next morning, dazed as he looked to see what the weight on his chest was---only to see it was Kayla. He pushed her hair off his face, rubbing at his eyes.

He grinned a smidge, wondering if he was the answer. "Oh yeah, why's that?"
|

|
"Because I feel safe with you. Calmer." She explained. "How about you? How'd you sleep?"
