After your tryst in the kitchen, the two of you return to the bunkhouse. Drunk and sleeping sailors snore in cacophonous harmony as they sway in their hammocks. Still feeling tipsy, you let Leo help you into bed; gently mocking you as he does so. You waste no time falling asleep as soon as you're settled. You think you hear Leo say something before you drift off, but by the time you wake up you can't recall. Like it was almost a dream.
