could put us to sleep
but nothing puts us to sleep
"Can't sleep?" Claire asks when she catches Dan waste another night in the dark.
He shakes his head and takes another drag of his cigarette. She knows he misses Jones. She does, too. She sits down next to him and pulls a cigarette out of his pack. She lights it and leans back until they are sitting shoulder to shoulder.
"He loves you," she says. He doubts she believes what she's saying.
"He left me," Dan says. And if he's smart, he'll stay away.
She rests her head on his shoulder. He doesn't want her comfort. He wants Jones back.
