Sleep

How the hell can he sleep? Connor thought in disbelief.

Matt leaned back against the tree trunk, his feet dangling over the branch, eyes closed and fast asleep, as the raptors prowled below them. They sought refuge up here hours ago, waiting for backup to arrive. If they had any kind of weapons, they could make a break for it but unfortunately, Matt’s gun was on the ground below them, knocked from his grip as he climbed.

Reaching over, Connor poked Matt in the ribs. If he couldn’t sleep, then he wasn’t sitting here with no one to talk to.

Poor Matt may soon be wishing he was on the ground with the raptors!

LOL, I bet Matt's going to be so pleased that Connor's woken him up just for a chat! :D

Especially knowing some of Connor's conversation topics.

Probably not, but it's not like he'd be able to get a word in edgewise anyway.

LOL

I like the idea of Matt being able to sleep anywhere; seems very consistent with his character and his past.

Thanks! I could see him using the opportunity to have a rest.

Connor will think it's great- a captive audience!
