Nick, you may think you two want each other, but I suspect you're both just craving comfort and reassurance from someone you trust. Don't say anything. Just lie still.

Feel the warm sensation of Judy's frail little body on your chest.

Listen for her raspy breaths as her chest rises and falls.

Focus on her racing heartbeat, which hopefully slows down as she clutches you tightly, as if she never wants to let go again.
