If there was anything more that Ryan could do at the moment he would. But right now, he had to agree with Eric that they should just sleep on it, they were missing something, perhaps in the morning they would be able to find their answers. It was times like this where he really wished that he could just pull Eric away from the military so they wouldnâ€™t have this shit to deal with. That, of course, was most likely impossible since he seemed so focused on his mission even while they were alone. Admittedly there was even a part of him that was focused on this. It was most likely because he was being a little selfish and wanted to get this done and over with so the military would just leave him the hell alone. He was sick of being their dog even when he wasnâ€™t with them.<br/><br/>He was about to say something when Eric suddenly leaned against him. Looks like they really did need some sleep after all, or maybe he was coming onto him. As much as he wanted to crack a joke about the latter he was positive it was the former. His eyelids were starting to feel heavier and he could feel tiredness settling in.<br/><br/>For a moment Ryan just sat there looking at him silently, feeling some color come to his face. He could have sworn that his heart skipped a beat, as silly as it sounded. It was definitely something that seemed to bring him this warmth that, once again, he could not describe accurately. Rather than say anything he decided to slip his arms around Eric and pull him a little closer, careful not to irritate his wounds. A small smile touched his lips. He wanted to feel that way, too, how they felt when they were alone. Now that they were tired there was no use holding it back any longer. Something about Eric seemed to draw this side of him out no matter how much he wanted to suppress it. Unlike how things had been back on the ship he didnâ€™t have to worry too much about getting into trouble.<br/><br/>â€œYouâ€™re right. Letâ€™s just get some sleep for the night, we can figure this out in the morning.â€ Ryan said eventually, keeping his voice low, remaining where he was. He wasnâ€™t sure if this was what Eric wanted but he certainly had no problems falling asleep like this. Without realizing it he had shifted to a better position so they were comfortable. But there was still one thing preventing him from falling asleep. As much as he wanted his worry to fade away there was still the thought of Kat coming down for whatever reason and seeing them like this. Then again maybe it was part of Ericâ€™s thoughts rubbing off on him a little even if it was a possibility. Such a killjoy. He wondered how Eric was willing to put up with it, but then again those two seemed to be quick on getting things done and over with.<br/><br/>It was certainly interesting to say the least. But, again, this was something to think about after they have had some sleep.
