Crowley had nearly fallen asleep, mind blank from exhaustion, forehead resting on John's bed, when the man started flailing and screaming and the demon jerked to full consciousness. Without thinking, he grabbed John's arms to prevent him from hurting himself or disconnecting any more of the medical equipment.
"John! It's dead! It's already dead. I promise. Aziraphale killed it. It can never come back. Do you hear me, John? It's dead."
He hoped for once that he was telling the truth. He hadn't actually heard from Aziraphale in a while and was getting worried.
"John, look at me. Listen to my voice and look at me. You're all right. You're back at Tadfield Manor with... Adam and nothing can hurt you, okay?" Crowley didn't know how safe John would feel around him at the moment, but everyone felt safe around Adam.

"You're home now."
