[The bed was plenty big enough for two mostly grown men as long as they didn't mind being wrapped in one another. Nicky sure as hell didn't mind. Booker wrapped his arm around him and he made a pleased sound as he laid his arm over Booker's.
He was asleep in minutes, the idle drawings of his thumb on Booker's wrist slowing and then finally stopping. He slept better that night than he had since Joe and the girls had left them at the airport.
He woke early. Slowly. He could hear the world starting outside the window, outside of the door...but behind him was Booker's warmth and his breathing and Nicky smiled in the dim light and bowed his head to thank God for the man behind him.]
