[And then the time that the coffee will need to brew, but that's another story. John doesn't need to hear all that. The question is -- how to fill the silence between then and now instead.

He glances aside at the other man, hands braced on the counter before him for a moment before he hazards:]

I. Really don't mind. Waking me up. If you need to, you know. You can, yeah?
