Raphael watched the red water swirl down the drain and he bit his lip. He wanted to ask Crowley what had become of his letter, had it been delivered, but he didn't dare in front of Adam.
Besides, looking at the demon's face, it seemed an inappropriate question to ask. His thoughts were clearly elsewhere.
So he settled for heading back to his room.
"I need sleep," he told the two. "If the machines start beeping or something goes visibly wrong, come and get me. Otherwise, he should wake up in less than half an hour and I need rest."

Raphael slumped into his bed, feeling more alone after seeing Crowley sitting next to John, and pressed his face into the pillow until fatigue overwhelmed him.
