Clementine watches their hands as he turns them, and she moves in close to him, tightening her hold on his hand, nodding her agreement. "Let's just stay here for a little bit, okay?" She leans against him, drawing him close to the wall too so he can rest. Not that sleep will be possible, but she doesn't want sleep.
She wants to stay in this moment with him.
She wants to press her ear close to his chest to hear his heartbeat and hear him breathing.
He lets out a long, slow breath. Sleep is so very past him, she's right about that, but resting... resting he can do. He leans, his head resting against the wall with a gentle thunk.
"Yeah. I think that's a good plan."
He doesn't want to face going out there just yet- dealing with just how many people have died. He isn't ready to even start putting on a smile for anyone else, he just needs a little time to regroup. He closes his eyes, not sleeping just- tuning out for a little while. Just having a short span of time where it was just him and her and nothing else mattered just for goddamn once.

She wants to stay in this moment with him.
She wants to press her ear close to his chest to hear his heartbeat and hear him breathing.
And know that he is alive.
