At least he didn't wake him. That's the bright side in all of this, and it makes it easier for him to lift his head up and meet that intense gaze he knows is waiting for him.
Ah, yes, there it is, furrowed brow and dark eyes, long lashes framing the whole visage as though he's more baby fawn than grown man. He attempts to sit back, but he's weak in spirit and reluctant to pull away from Raju's hand on the back of his neck. "If I woke every time I had an unpleasant dream, I'd never sleep," he admits.
It's an unsatisfactory answer, and he knows it. He should give him something. "If I start talking in my sleep, then by all means, please wake me. As for the rest...I can manage." It's unpleasant, but he doesn't start fires when he's distressed by them.
