[Astarion will absolutely be a man of his word about fiercely protecting Gale's rest. But that's after his trance. Honestly, he finds that he's nearly lulled completely to sleep with the slow beat of Gale's heart in his ear and the feverish warmth of his body beneath him. But after his few hours of rest he remains where he is, feeling the rise and fall of Gale's chest beneath their joined hands.
It's Wyll, rather than their leader, who comes to their little of the corner of the inn first thing in the morning. Astarion absolutely isn't above giving the man a very pointed glare at even the suggestion that Gale be on breakfast duty the day after his kidnapping. Not to mention the fact that there's an entire damn tavern with a fully functional kitchen beneath them. Word spreads from Wyll to their leader, as it should, and both Gale and Astarion are left undisturbed well into the late morning.]
