Clint ran his hand shortly up and down her back, more unnerved than anything when he realized that it trembled. Yeah, lots of coffee and some orange juice later.
He took it slower with standing up than usual and managed to stay clear in the head. Since they had gone to bed only with towels yesterday, he picked a pair of short pants on the way. There was a plate with cut meat in the fridge that he had prepared for a meal, actually, but obviously not needed yesterday, and Liho's bowls were still in the house from yesterday. So it was a matter of seconds getting her food and milk ready. And he even had a second to drown that disgusting taste in his mouth with a sip of juice.
Little one was still visibly wary when he left the house and walked around it to the box he had sat up for her there. But just like yesterday, her hunger got the better of her and she followed him. He didn't bother trying to making friends this morning, for once because he still felt like someone had smoked a joint in his head. And because there were other, bigger worries on his mind. Also, an autumn morning in Sicily was as cool as everywhere else and he was freezing miserably when he came back to the bedroom.
Yeah, at least half an hour under the covers sounded really nice.
