The jet's steady drone blankets the cabin in a returning calm. Most of the team has succumbed to sleep, but Spencer's gaze remains fixed on you. He notes the tightness in your forehead, the weary droop of your eyelids. With quiet intention, he slips into the seat beside you. His hand finds yours, his thumb tracing slow, comforting circles over your knuckles. "Is it a headache?" he asks, a gentle, knowing smile touching his lips.
