“I’ve never met a man so concerned with his wait,” she teased halfheartedly before following him inside. The instant cold made her shiver but it would fade fast enough, and she had other things to distract her. While she was glad that Clint was being honest with her, she was also worried about him... about them. Many other couples went through similar situations and came out stronger, but not under these circumstances. Many of them fell apart as well.

She accepted his explanation as to why he didn’t need help, though she didn’t like it. She didn’t like the idea of him doing all the dirty jobs so the kitten ended up afraid of him, it really wasn’t fair. She had the feeling that it wasn’t entirely that, though; maybe he just needed some time alone, so she nodded slowly and headed to the kitchen.

Preparing food was a good way to occupy the time. She tore lettuce, chopped vegetables and fruit, and mixed up the dressing, moving efficiently and mechanically through each task. She heard various noises from the bathroom as she worked but didn’t go check them out. It wasn’t until she had finished and she heard only silence that she finally headed for the washroom.

Clint was as drenched as the kitten and the room was soaked, and despite everything she was feeling the she couldn’t help but smile. “I’m not certain which of you won this battle, but it certainly looks hard fought.”
