When Clint pulled her closer she ended up half laying on him, a position she was entirely okay with. Laying her head on his chest, she listened to the steady thrum of his heartbeat and felt the rise and fall of his chest as he breathed, both having returned to normal now. For a long time she focused only on these, her eyes often closing though she didn’t sleep.
Eventually he stirred and she reluctantly gave him some space, though she accepted the water with a smile of gratitude. Taking a long drink, she was about to hand it back to him when he set the plate of chocolates between them. Propping her head on her hand she set the bottle beside it and grinned at him.
