You shuffled in your sleep, feeling cold and uncomfortable. Letting out a soft groan, you pried your eyes open, rubbing them as you slowly sat up. You looked around, noticing you were still in the boathouse, inside of the boat. "Eddie?" You quietly mumbled, looking around and noticing he was sleeping, hunched over in the corner with the broken bottle in his hand. Moving the blue tarp off of your feet, you steadily stepped out of the boat, approaching him slowly. "Hey!" You yelled in a whisper, kicking his leg. "Eddie!" You kicked him again.
"Huh? Hm?" He jumped awake, looking around him, his grip on the bottle tightening. "Put that thing down!" You said in annoyance, looking down at him. "Shit, you're awake," He sighed, slowly standing to his feet with a low groan. "My back." He sighed. Truth be told, you fell asleep on Eddie's arm last night, nearly falling back into the boat before he caught you. He gently helped you into the boat, making sure you were as comfortable as you could be. He watched you all night, making sure that nothing happened to you.
"Sorry I fell asleep on you last night." You said, embarrassed. "You should be. You took my very comfortable bed." Eddie looked at the boat. "You just slept in that corner the whole night?" You asked, folding your arms across your chest. "Well, there isn't exactly room for two in the boat. Plus, other stuff." Eddie chuckled, looking at you. "Right," You nodded, looking away from him with a smile. "Well, thank you for letting me borrow your very comfortable bed, Munson." You smiled at him. "Of course, your majesty." Eddie bowed.
You let out a laugh, playfully pushing his shoulder, "stop!" Eddie laughed at your reaction, standing up straight in the process. His eyes caught yours once again. "How are you feeling?" He asked, his tone more serious. "Um," you rubbed the back of your neck, "this is the first time I've actually got a full night's sleep over the last few days so..." You shrugged. "Improvement. Right?" Eddie raised his brows. "If you say so." You looked over your shoulder, noticing the walkie on the stool, remembering how the others went out looking for you last night.
A pit formed in your stomach. They must be worried out of their minds. Reaching for the walkie, Eddie stopped you, his hands grabbing your wrist, "don't worry, I let them know this morning you were here." Eddie let go of your wrist. "This morning? How long were you up last night?" You asked, letting out a scoff. "Like," Eddie avoided your gaze, looking at everything else in the boathouse but you, "all night." He admitted. "All night?" You asked, surprised. Eddie nodded, walking past you to look out the window. "All night," Eddie looked back at you. "The others said they should be here soon to come and get you."
