Shinji's hold on Kyoko's hand loosens as well, it should be easy for her to slip out of his hold if she wants, but he won't be shaking her off entirely right now, either. Whether anyone is actually going to get some sleep tonight isn't exactly the point right now, it's the act of taking comfort in each other, and that... that should be doable.

His body already feels heavy, the softness of the bed and the warmth of the company is welcome to help unwind, even as his mind is still racing and stubbornly refusing to calm down. He can, either way, keep his mouth shut and whatever tears may still be lingering to himself. Sleep may be slippery for him tonight, but letting them all get the chance to rest is important even if the actual shut-eye stays elusive. So, he lets himself get comfortable in his spot, still careful not to jostle anything, and answers with a soft echo of, "Mmm, goodnight."
