Sam and Byron left shortly after that, and Cass didn't bring up what Gideon said either. Everyone needed some time to mull over the discovery they had. Plus, Cass didn't want to speak too long without Edgar.
The man was already going to be pissed that he had missed this moment when he woke up the next day.
Gideon was also quiet, keeping to himself as they set about going back to sleep. He didn't say anything more to Cass, his eyes unfocused, as if he was focusing on something else. Cass couldn't blame him. Cass was lost in his own thoughts as well.
It was a miracle that Cass was even able to get back to sleep.

When Cass woke up again, it was to find that more time had passed then he was aware. The sun behind the curtain wasn't teasing, but instead bright and washed over him on the bed. Edgar and Gideon were gone, Gideon probably leaving far earlier to get his work out in.
