She's so tired, her body has been telling her it needs to be asleep at all times and she's been doing her best to fight that and stay lucid because of exactly this. She doesn't want to miss moments like this, moments with Tommy when he looks so excited about a life they'll start together when they leave here.
So she forces her eyes to stay open, covers his hand on her cheek with her own and gives him another exhausted smile.
"Your brothers will tease you," she guesses, because she's heard enough to know that will absolutely be the case. "I may just let them."
