Derek:
In fact Derek did remember how he had gotten her to fall asleep earlier in
the week and it was his plan to try and accomplish this again. He was
completely exhausted, a condition which made him feel quite old. Though
somewhere in the back of his mind it did register that the source of this
exhaustion was most likely the fact that he had gotten very little sleep in
the past week, rather than merely a reaction to the evenings festivities.
Though in his present state logic seemed to be eluding him, forced aside by
that nagging part of his brain that kept reminding him of his age and hers.
"That's good to know," he murmrred softly as he closed his own eyes.
