Bit of both POVs here! Not mine blah de blah! Geez if it was, Dylan and Sam would have got back together straight after Next of Kin!
Dylan
I had not expected to come home from walking Dervla and find Sam on the same street. I really did not expect me to then invite her in to my little floating house. I quickly grab some food for Dervla and grab my keys from the drawer. Walking back in to the sitting room I find Sam curled up fast asleep. Her long hair draped around her shoulders. It would be a shame to wake her; she needs the sleep after today. I pick her up gently and carry her through to the bedroom. She barely stirs as I cover her with the duvet. I have one last check that she is alright as I turn out the light and close the door. I settle on the sofa and gradually let myself fall asleep.
Sam
Even in the pitch black I can tell that I'm not in my own bed. I think back; the car crash, explosion, chemical spill and then, Dylan. I'm at Dylan's house, but he's not here. Not in the room anyway. I lean over and find a small alarm clock; 3:16am joy!
I reluctantly get out of bed and open the door. I can see the faint outline of Dylan on the sofa. I shake him until he wakes up.
'Why are you sleeping here?' I whisper.
'You're in the bedroom; you need it more than me.' He says blearily.
'However tired and annoyed at you I am, I don't want you to lose sleep. Come through, we are still married. I can cope with sharing.' I joke.
'I suppose that's the best offer I'm going to get at this time. I'll be one second.'
