"You need to either call Doc or take Odie in, that's definitely a concussion, Illi." He grunts and threads his fingers through mine. "Don't go to sleep yet, baby. I know you're tired but just stay awake for me." I let my eyes drift shut again but I nod. "It's okay, I don't want to sleep yet. I don't want to sleep until I'm back home and clean." His fingers tighten in mine and then he brings my hand up to his mouth to kiss my palm. "Good girl. Do you want the radio on? Or silence? Tell me what you need." I smile up at him and murmur, “I have everything I need right here, mon Monstre.”
