Harley rocks back on her heels. Her hands twist the fabric of her stolen shirt. Not his anymore, never his shirt again.
"Yeah, guess so."
She's been so lonely underground, but he was living usual days and is more used to solitude. After an entire night and morning with her glued to his side, he has probably had enough of her hanging around. She's not easy company, she knows. So as much as she wants to cajole him into coming out with her, better to give him a break. Don't push her luck or his tolerance.
"I'll, uh. Well, bye!"
She turns on her heel and rushes out of the room and up the stairs, where she dresses in a hurry and grabs her pack. She runs back down the stairs and out the door without another word of goodbye.
Eventually, hours and hours later, she stumbles back through his 'tower' door in a very pleasant mood. The lingering smell of liquor might have something to do with it.
If he's still awake then he'll be able to catch her heading up for a bath, and if he's already asleep she will bathe first and then slip into bed next to him.
