"Um, you waiting for something?", he asked as he saw her sit on the bag as he sat down and took off his shoes.

"I dunno, you want a specific side or something? I know some people have quirks about that."

"Relax Starla, I you don't have to share it with me. You have made it quite clear you are not comfortable with... well, me. Go to sleep." he said and lied down on the floor next to the sleeping bag.

"I'm not comfortable with naked people. I've slept in a bed with other people before though."

"Well, whatever. I will be fine outside." He closed his eyes, trying to calculate how much they had traveled in the past couple of days. He wasn't happy with the answer.

He opened his eyes and looked at her. He was actually considering it but the reluctance on her face and in her voice helped him decide. He smiled, "No its ok, thanks."

"ok... if you're sure..." she shrugged and laid down in the sleeping bag.

Simon dozed off quickly. The floor was much more comfortable than a tree or a rough rock floor to sleep on. He would have given anything to get into the sleeping bag but for some reason he felt her needs came first.
He slept continuously till morning and woke up as the light grew. Without looking around he walked out of the hut to wash his face and drink some water.

She continued to sleep after he got up, but then started to move a bit.
Something tickled her feet, so they moved some, kicking a little. But then it moved up her back, and she slowly started to wake.
Then she felt the movement, and when she was awake, it freaked her out and she leapt from the sleeping bag.
"Jesus christ!" she yelled as she hopped away, trying to sweep the weird feeling away.

Simon picked up the pot again and walked to the shore line. He started walking back to the hut to see if Starla was awake.

She shuddered as she saw the snake slither out of the sleeping bag, and took a step away from it.

Simon walked into the hut to find Starla standing in the corner looking at the sleeping bag. "Whoa, how did that get in there? Starla, you alright? Did it bite you?"
He kept the pot at one side and held the bag from the opposite end, turning the end with the snake towards the exit of the hut. Shaking it a couple of times, he made sure the snake slithered away.

"no... it didn't bite me, but guh..." she shuddered again at it.

"Ok good. A snake bite would have been a problem here." He starting packing the sleeping bag again then, stopped. "Uh, you want to sleep for a bit more?"
