Chapter 39: Cheer up.

Sam opened his eyes at the sound of his phone's alarm. Lifting himself up he stretched his arms while yawning, only to slump forward a moment later. 

"I feel like shit…" he said, rubbing his eyes before grabbing his glasses. 

Same as the last time one of the Valkyries got injured he spent the night in his lab. Falling asleep on the desk wasn't that comfortable of an experience leaving him with a stiff neck that probably won't go away for the next few days.

Cursing his luck he picked up his tablet and gave it a look, standing up and heading to the one way glass wall. On the other side one of Eir's containers was still full of the green liquid with the naked body of a young woman submerged in it. 

Sam didn't feel any arousal seeing Zero Five like that. And how could he? She still had two gashes in her abdomin, and although he could no longer see the other side through them he couldn't help but grimace when faced with the wound.
