"I appreciate it," Ileana told Cole again. She shut the door after he stepped out and exhaled a long sigh. Really she'd rather have gone to lay down, but Cole was adamant that she shouldn't be sleeping yet. A shower seemed like it'd help keep her awake, hopefully she stay up till dawn. As she undressed the rest of the way, Ileana mused on the absurdity of the situation. It was hard, she realized, knowing that something is strange and not being able to pin why it all was weird.
It had to be one of the few times she wishes she was perfectly normal.
The shower did help with making her feel a little normal. The dried blood washing down the drain, even if it was a little struggle to deal with a swollen wrist. Stepping out of the shower, Ileana grabbed a towel and wrapped it around her. Shuffling a little over to the door, she grabbed the clothes that were outside the door with another quick "Thank you!"
A few minutes later, Ileana stepped out of the bathroom fully dressed. She made her way back in to the living room to curl herself down on the couch again, "I feel a bit better now."
