Thomas wasn't woken by her movements or by the strokes of his cheek. He was still in a deep sleep, showing how tired he really was and how much their love making had sapped any strength he had left. It was probably a wise decision to put up a barrier around them. Thomas certainly hadn't done anything to show he'd stay or even take her advice. Not to mention others who outranked her may drop in to see is her report was true.
While a single messenger did escape the net, it was widely known now that Thomas was one of the messengers. It wouldn't take long for people to figure out he didn't make it. It would only take a little longer then that for people to figure out that a body had not been found. Thomas had been declared dead without the proof of a body far to many times to be believed.
When she returned, Thomas was still asleep. However the smells of breakfast began to wake him. His eyes flickered open and looked around with a small smile. Reaching out he looked for his sinful partner, but couldn't find her. Soon enough he figured out that she was probably causing the fantastic smell coming from the kitchen.
