Daniel is still asleep by the time Seth finally gives up on getting any more sleep, though he remains in bed. There's not really much for him to do. He could take a shower, but he doesn't have any clean clothes to change into, and he might wake Daniel. And if he doesn't, well, then he'll be worried about leaving him on his own while asleep. A mostly irrational fear, but not one he sees enough reason to try to overcome. He carefully leans over to check Daniel's wristwatch - he'd removed the battery from the phone and he doesn't have a watch himself - and sighs softly. Too early to do much, and Daniel needs rest to heal.

So he lies there, considering Daniel. Wondering what he's done to deserve such a friend. They don't even know each other that well, but here's Daniel risking his life, on the run. Who knows how much work and time he put into getting Seth out. And for what? Seth finds it impossible to believe it would be just to have an important ally, someone to give him powers. Too much risk, too little payoff, surely. So it must be personally motivated, or perhaps merely altruistic, or more likely a combination. It sort of puts Seth in awe, and he's pretty sure that's not just from having low standards to measure from.

Eventually he decides it's late enough that he can get up and not feel guilty if he wakes Daniel. His body feels sore from everything that happened yesterday, but a better state than it was last night, mostly. He carefully slips out from the covers, and pulling on his t-shirt first, then going for the rest.
