[ that bump was definitely loud enough for athena to hear. and she still hasn't let go of him as he (and she, subsequently) fell. half of her body is resting on his chest now, but she pushes herself up enough that her palms are flat on the blankets, merlin's head in between.
this is probably the closest they've been in a while, but maybe that will sink in later. she's more worried now than anything.
she leans on one hand as she uses the other to cup the back of his head. ]
