[for Jon]
(dated his first morning back at home)
Rickon was so glad to see his father home again that he refused to sleep anywhere but in his parents' bed, right between them. While Susan slept better having Jon home again (it seemed so long--as everyone knows when you're used to sleeping with someone you love, it's very hard to fall asleep when you're forced to do it without them) that was somewhat lessened by Rickon squirming, stealing the covers, and turning sideways in his sleep. Susan had got up in the middle of the night to put him back in his own bed, but not half an hour later he was right back in between them and Susan had given up trying to move him.
Susan had hoped that part of her morning sickness was just due to the stress of not having Jon about and the upset of departed family members, but she had hardly woken properly before she felt the familiar stomach-turning wave of nausea and tried to slip out of bed as unobtrusively as possible, hoping not to wake Jon. Having to untangle herself from Rickon without waking him too made that quite a bit more difficult.
