Charlie waits until Miles is gone and, before Bass can even voice the question, she repeats her answer.

"No." She sets the bottle down just far enough away that she'll hear him or feel him if he moves to get it. He'd be in enough pain getting it that she'd know. "If you really, really need it, you can have it but--" Charlie takes a breath as she sits down next to him and slides a hand into his, threading their fingers together.

Her voice softens. "You've always slept better with me here and that's what I'm hoping for."
