[Vash doesn't often sleep well, when he sleeps. His sleep is fitful and often interrupted. It happens in bursts when he's able to catch it, sitting up keeping vigil somewhere, perched on a rooftop, hitching a ride in the back of a truck...any number of places. Hell, it's not often he sleeps in an actual bed. What he and Ain have right now is a luxury, really. Yet, Ain's singing...it's just as beautiful to him now as it was the first time he heart it. It's soothing and serene, and it's near enough to break your heart.

It's enough to lull him to sleep shortly after Ain starts, his hands reaching to hold onto the bird gently wherever they end up landing. It means that the two of them are sort of cuddling under and within his large red jacket, and for Vash? It's perfect.

He falls asleep, and he rests.


......until about 6 am, when the two of them are startled awake to the sound of hard banging on their door. BANG BANG BANG, FBI OPEN UP kind of banging. If Vash wasn't so tangled up in his lover pet right now, he would have startled so badly he'd have just ended up on the floor wholesale. Though he does jump near out of his skin as he lifts his head quickly, his blonde hair tousled and all kinds of out of sorts, he manages to stay in bed as he pushes himself up onto his palms, his head whipping around to look at the door.

There's a beat of silence, then the rapping begins anew. Harder, and more insistent this time, with the muffled shout of what must be a police officer on the other side, demanding they open up. If this were just a normal noise complaint, Vash doubts they'd be knocking like they're ready to beat the door down...but is it possible they know it's him staying here? Did someone see him when he left the konbini last night?]


Ain...Ain, we've got to go-!
