"Of course not," she murmured in return, nuzzling against his chest for a moment longer. She was comfortable like that, but she knew she wouldn't be able to fall asleep like that. So, a little while later, she carefully rolled over to press her back to him, tugging his arm around her again and tucking herself up under his chin once more. She loved this closeness and whatever was going on between them, she knew they both needed to sleep tonight. So much had happened recently that they were both exhausted. As much as she wanted to stay awake to see what else would occur, they had lifetimes for that.

Sleep first. Then figure things out. Unless James had a better idea, which she would be open to considering at this point.

Helen smiled as she curled up, running her thumb across his hand as she let her eyes slide shut.
