She offered him a brief smile. "You're welcome." She glanced toward the front of the speak. "I should go see to some things, but I'll be up soon."

Kissing her cheek again, he nodded, rising. There was no way he was going to be awake for much longer. "Take care," he murmured.

She rose, nodding. "And you. Get some rest, Mac."

He nodded, pausing a moment to give her an actual kiss before slipping up the stairs and curling up in the bed.

Griddlebone watched him go before returning to work.
A few hours later, after closing up and locking up the speak, the white queen slipped upstairs to her room, startling very slightly at the sight of the red tabby in her bed. She sighed very softly, but changed into her nightdress and slid into bed beside him, curling near, but not touching him, not wanting to wake him.

Considering his hearing was good enough to hear cats approaching through solid doors, the very sound of the door opening had been enough to wake him. He waited until she had curled up in bed before he rolled over and wrapped himself around her again, fully intending to just go back to sleep that way.

She blinked at that, but curled nearer to him, murmuring very softly "How are you doing?"

"Tired, ready for sleep." She answered drowsily.

"Then go ta sleep," he murmured, running a paw across her hair and down her back, leaving it there to rest.

She nodded very slightly, resting her head on his chest, and gradually drifting off to the sound of Mac's heartbeat.

Macavity managed to muster a slight purr as he felt her drifting off, before shortly following her.
