The Ghoul grunted vaguely, trying to shift his weight to lay next to her more than on top of her--only partially successful, one arm and leg still lazily flopped over her. "Can't," he murmured, words slushy with exertion, head turning to kiss the bite mark he'd left on her shoulder. "Gotta keep movin', darlin'." He paused, his lips twitching a bit. "Assumin' I can speak now, hn?"
"You need to sleep," she frowned with a bit of concern. Yes, she felt shaky and weak now but she'd had a few hours while he hadn't, not really. Then the corners of her mouth twitched as she turned her head to look at him, reaching to brush her fingers along his jawline. "You can speak now."
"But you should sleep for a little while. We can leave a little later, push hard, and even into the night a bit before we stop," she told him with a nod. Because, yes, she was concerned about him, shush.
The Ghoul grunted softly, shifted to tuck himself back into his pants and fasten his fly. "Mm, sure thing, ma," he quipped, flopping onto his back and reaching around the mattress until he found his hat. "You're takin' first watch from now on, by the way," he mumbled bedore parking his hat over his face, shielding his eyes from the sun. "I know y'fell back asleep, darlin."
"You let me fall back asleep," she pointed out as she nudged his leg before getting to her feet slowly. If she hissed at any point, well, it was just a figment of his imagination. Moving to her bag, she got out a cloth to clean herself up before she wrinkled her nose and looked around because now she had to dispose of the cloth which she did in the fireplace eventually. After that, she got dressed, and took a moment to look at him before she smirked and wandered away to take her post. He needed the sleep and she needed the rest but a small part of her wondered what would happen now that they had added this aspect to their growing....whatever it was.
