Jody's already chewed through four of her nails and is working on the fifth by the time they're boarding. She's next to an exhausted looking man who's muttering something about the 4th flight of the day. He takes one look at her before speaking.
"Nervous flyer?"
"Rather be arrested honestly. And I'm a sheriff."
"Well then. Cas."
"Jody."
"I'm going to fall asleep. But if you need a hand to squeeze I'll be happy to oblige."
She ends up taking him up on his offer and he falls asleep before they can let go, snoring gently on her shoulder. She flips through her book idly, ignoring the feeling they're about to plunge out of the sky, nudging Cas awake when the meal comes around. He pulls the armrest up after the meal offering his arm. She figures she won't fall asleep, even curled against the side of a near stranger and she's surprised when she wakes up as they're taxing in, Cas' arm still snug around her.
"You're going to have to give me your number. You're the best pillow I've had in years."
