Arlen awoke to the feeling that someone was looking at him. Stretching in his seat, he opened his eyes, rubbing the sleep from them to see Kodi standing across the room, at the window. He couldn't help but smile a little at the picture; a young woman as beautiful as she was standing by a window that opened out to a sea of snow beyond.

Still smiling, he pushed the blanket off and kicked the recliner closed, stretched again with a stiffled yawn. He covered his mouth out of habit and manners, sitting up and checking the time. It was still rather early, just before noon. He looked over at Kodi.<br/><br/>"Hey there, Kodi. Sleep well?"
