"Did I?" Thomas asked, leaning back against the sofa and feigning confusion. "I don't remember doing that. I must have been half asleep."

He laughed though, shaking his head and rubbing a hand through his hair. "I'm just kidding. I didn't expect you, that's all. I'm just glad I wasn't asleep. That's all I've wanted to do since I got back. Just sleep. Sit in a dark room and sleep where it's quiet."
