Becky's been staring at the wall for about five minutes now, quiet. She's not unhappy--far from it--but her train of thought has brought her to kind of a strange place for this moment.
She snuggles a little closer to David and pulls up the sheet a bit.
"This is strange, but... is it weird to be worried about Yoko? With this whole Kevin thing?"
After a, um, workout, followed by five minutes of silence, David has to force himself to come out of a half-doze. Then he blinks for a second while he realizes what the question was.
"Y'should be worried about Kevin," he says, finally. "He fucks this up, I'll kill whatever Yoko leaves alive."
Becky makes a little sound of agreement in her throat. Sounded about right.
She doesn't say anymore; she felt like she was meddling already. Instead, she just gets comfy and tries to doze off herself. It doesn't really work, but at least she was relaxed.
David scoots down a little and puts an arm around her. "She's a smart kid," he says. "Naive as hell, yeah, but you gotta remember she's been through as much shit as I have. Much as you have. I figure Kevin's in over his head."
Of course, the advantage to having his arm around her is it offers opportunities for groping.
With his arm down, Becky's free to scoot a little closer. She puts her head on his shoulder and kind of hugs him with one of her legs.
"She's very strong," she agrees quietly. "I just don't want anything bad to happen to her. Can't shelter her, but... it looks like something bad is coming and she doesn't deserve it for just believing in someone."

"And maybe kick the shit out of Kevin."

"I'll leave that last part to you," she says, starting to finally feel a little drowsy herself.
She snuggles down on his shoulder and closes her eyes.

He waits to make sure she's asleep before drifting off himself.
