Well then. Linya will not wake him.

When she goes to bed, he is somewhat too flat for spooning and she's worried about shifting and bothering his legs in the night, so she winds up hugging his arm and lying angled diagonally away from him. It is not as comfortable as the standard, but it will do for the time being.

He is probably awake first, between lingering postsurgical discomfort and not having had the chance to pee in twelve hours.
