Brian was absolutely miserable, he hated feeling like he was helpless. He didn’t like Abby having to take care of him, or the thought of either of the girls trying to take care of that pack. It was his job to make sure she was safe, they they were safe. He looked up at her when she returned to the living room and he ran a hand through his hair. “I’ll probably be better in no time.” He said, he trying to be positive. “Matt and I will be back in charge before you know it.”
Natalie left Matt alone to get some sleep. The more sleep he got, the quicker he’d be able to get on his feet and do his job. Natalie felt like her anxiety was hitting a spike, so she tried to clear her mind by getting caught up on some cleaning. When she was done, she headed back upstairs and looked at Matt still sleeping quietly. For once, she let her instincts have their way and she crawled up into the bed against his back and wrapped her arms, loosely and carefully, around his waist.
