When Shepard arrived at Huerta Memorial, Thane was asleep in his room. The thought of waking him didn’t even occur to her: she spent so many of her own waking hours aching for the embrace of sleep, and she knew how he got by snatching odd handfuls of hours here and there around Kepral’s keeping him too ill to truly rest.

Instead, she just observed him for a moment: the slight part of his full lips, through which he drew his wet, ragged breaths; the curl of his fingers beside his face; the way the sunlight glinted off his scales (duller now, than when they had first met; Shepard was no expert in what a healthy drell looked like, but she was sure Thane wasn’t it).

The twisting, pulling, stinging feeling that knotted up her chest was something she pushed to the back of her mind every day. The commander in charge of forming the galaxy’s response to the reapers did not have time to be mourning her dying lover; she didn’t have the right, when so many were depending on her.

But here, with Thane asleep and no one else to see, she didn’t have to pretend she was handling it. Moving as gently as she could (which was, to tell the truth, not much), Shepard eased down onto the bed beside Thane, thinking to just close her eyes a moment; just for a minute, imagine there was nothing outside the bed, with the two of them in it.

When Thane’s sleep lightened, he was immediately aware that he was not alone, and that catapulted him into complete wakefulness. This ability to be alert so soon out of sleep had proved useful in the past, but in this case, unnecessary: he recognized the scarred brown hand on the bed.

Shepard.
