Late Morning

Kara wakes undisturbed, which was a change from every other time. Her night hadn't been very peaceful, as Lee woke her every hour per doctor's orders. Her head was still pounding, but she wasn't shivering anymore

And back again

[leeadama]

After this: Lee comes in looking a bit worse for wear as he's covered in white paint, sweating from exertion, bruised all over from last night's battle plus the act of breaking down a frakkin' door, and feeling stupid for, um, breaking down a door. Which he'll have to pay for. He carefully puts the firearm back in a drawer.

He looks over at Kara. "You doing okay?" he asks.

"I was up on the roof," he says. "It was fun. Got blasted to hell with some freezing water at one point. Rory saved me by pouring warm coffee on my face. What a mess," he says, laughing. "

She laughs, picturing it. "It was pretty wild. We had Tex with us and damn, she's hardcore."

"That's one way to describe her," Lee says, eyes wide. "I would NOT want to be on that woman's bad side."

"Bet you kicked some serious snow monster ass out there," he whispers with a grin, leaning in closer to press a quick kiss to her cheek.

"Damn right I did," says Kara, giving him a big grin.

"Mmmhmm," he replies, "That's my Kara."

He slides lower so he can lean his head on the mattress. "Can I get you anything? More water? Back rub? Shower? Mindless entertainment?"

Kara smiles softly and runs a hand through his hair. "I think I'll see if I can sleep this headache off," she says.

"Good idea," he says. "I'll be on the couch. Holler if you need anything." He hesitates before softly saying, "I love you," and he leans in to press one more gentle kiss to her temple. "Sleep well."
