Elliot took his medicine, and his complexion improved slightly. Exhausted, he nestled into her lap and fell asleep.

Sheena checked the time and noticed that it was already quite late. If she left now, she risked waking Elliot, who was peacefully sleeping. However, staying meant dealing with Corey, which could turn out badly.
