He leaned into her touch, closing his eyes. With his eyes closed he could forget that he wasn't at her apartment, that they weren't somewhere else.
He finally sat up, curling up his legs under him. He pulled his hood up over his head and sighed weakly. He carefully got up and padded over to the closet. He sank down onto the carpet. It wasn't the same but it was close enough that he felt secure, clothing pressing around him firmly.
Once he's up, she moved to the coffeemaker, preparing two cups and bringing one over to him. Settling down at the mouth of the closet, she offers him the other cup.
"Enjoy," she smiles. "And let me know if you want anything else, okay?"
He nods and takes the mug. He slurps at it but it's a lot more like what he's used to than he's expecting it to be, with how much everything else has changed.
"This is okay." He carefully reached out to pull the closet door shut, sealing him in darkness. He wasn't about to come out for a long time, and Natasha definitely would be able to get at least a nap.

And she keeps that promise, mostly because when she's fairly sure he's asleep, she lets herself fall into bed, settling in for a nap of her own.
