[ he's not sure how, but he's absolutely certain that it's one of those mornings where waking up would be a Bad Idea. even when he's only half-awake, he can feel the dull throb in his head, signaling the presence of a progressively worsening migraine. presses a hand to his forehead gingerly as he peeks open one eye. shuts it immediately when the light amplifies the headache even further. somehow manages to roll over onto his side with a soft groan, expression twisting into one of pain as he patterns out his breathing.

several minutes later, reattempts at opening his eyes. is successful this time, leaving him to blink owlishly at the blurry image of the (foreign-but-not) room laid out before him. jerks bodily when he realizes that this is not his room, but tony's. doesn't quite get to the point of throwing himself off the bed, however, hindered quite successfully by the pounding headache. feels slightly better upon realizing that tony's strangely absent, filling him with a sense of hope that he can get away unscathed. as such, he stubbornly pushes down the memories as he wraps his arms around his head, concentrating on breathing & recovering so that he can escape as soon as possible. ]

[ stares at the phone in silence when the line is cut, his expression blank. slowly closes the phone & keeps it cupped between his hands as he slides down onto the floor. cranes his head upward at the ceiling, blinking a little, not too certain how he's feeling. then he draws up his knees & rests his arms on them so that he can lean forward to press his forehead against those arms. lets himself daze a little as the thoughts come & go until something in the back of his mind reminds him that he's still at work.

pocketing his cellphone, he gets to his feet. but instead of immediately going downstairs to face his boss, he glances around for a bathroom. when he finds it, he peeks at the state of his face in the mirror & finds it thankfully dry. splashes his face with some water anyway before slapping at his cheeks a little & takes the time to make a few stupid faces at himself. ]
