Aziraphale's top-off was too recent for Sunshine to really be tired on the magic-handling front, but it's been a difficult few days in general, and that spat in the hallway might have been one too many. So perhaps it's no surprise that she ends up sleeping for a little over an hour before she's hauled back into wakefulness by the vague feeling that she's forgotten something important.
Spike's breathing tells her he's dozed off before she lifts her head and her eyes confirm it. She's a little inclined towards exasperation: either he couldn't stay awake (and okay, he's nocturnal, but come on), or he elected not to wake her… probably out of some lingering belief that she needed more rest than she said she did (again: come on). But her watch tells her it hasn't been much more than an hour. There's still plenty of daylight left.
She watches him sleep for a moment, a little surprised that her moving around, slight as it's been, hasn't been enough to wake him up. Then again, her universe's vampires tend towards insensibility during the daylight hours, so maybe she should be impressed that he's capable of diurnal consciousness at all.
"Hey," she says quietly, giving his chest a pat. "You fell asleep at your post."
