[ In any other circumstances - they both no doubt know, it would be out of the question. She is hardly a woman to go throwing herself about into another's arms when the city did not make it so. Far, far too shy for that.
But his wound throws the rest out. He needs tending, care, properly done. Her modesty could and would be damned for the need to look after another.
Though he does have a few minutes to undressed, get the water running, where she goes about the first task that needs to be done in her mind for when he gets out of that shower. Clean sheets. First, the windows opened, to air it all out. The bed is stripped, the old sheets off to the side to be scrubbed, and the new ones laid out. Though she does it with the efficiency of someone very used to it, and it does not take her long at all. She can finish putting the new ones on when they were both out.
That ten or so minutes late, she slips in, gently closing the door behind her. Carefully, she undoes the buttons on her fine clothes and sets them aside. All a very ridiculous ensemble, she is a woman that dresses immaculately to expectation, that as she begins to undo her dress, she has the same fastidious nature with. Standing there in his bathroom in nothing but her matching lingerie, stockings and heels like it was her own chambers, and all of this was fairly normal, folding the dress up and setting it aside.
Clearing her throat, to attempt like this somehow was business as usual for them both. She cannot imagine the amount of pain he is in, and he does not need her squirming in embarrassment over things that were as unimportant. ]
