Then she's back and his head tilts to pillow on her bony shoulder. He's still exhausted, but if they sleep again he wants them to really earn it — and maybe do the whole thing in a bed? He's got lofty ideas, this one.
"Maybe we could just forget about Harlem's Paradise for a while." Or she could let him, anyway. He's burnt out, truthfully, and he'd come here for a reprieve as much as anything else. "And order that pizza." His tummy gives a timely growl at that.
