[Alex let out the smallest of whimpers of relief when he tightened his arms around her, and she held onto him like she thought the world was ending. Oh, she knew that he would wake up because everyone else had, but there was still the little seed of doubt that she was wrong about the motivations of the woman who had set off the virus in the beginning. Or that there was something weird in his DNA that this would kill him when it had merely made gods sick. But for now he was a safe and alive and he was here and he still remembered her, so she was going to count that for a win.
The whimper brought the sensation of something solid thudding onto the bed, and less than a minute later, the two of them were getting smothered in puppy kisses, because Alex wasn't the only one who missed him. Honestly, there were times when Alex felt that Apo might like Richard more than he liked her, and this was one of those times.]
