Even exhausted she could not completely abandon her thoughts of the man that repaired himself next to her. Several times through the night Reinette awoke, her eyes immediately settling onto Jack in the dark.
She saw small moments of the story as they were spun together. Each time she woke some small portion of the Jack she knew had returned.
The final time Reinette awoke it was to an intake of breath that was not her own, somehow soft and quiet. Her hand remained in Jack's own, and at least for this small moment she seemed willing to wait.
Wait for him to fully wake, and come out of the moment.
