Helena's arms and words had the desired affect of calming her down. It was a good thing that the only person who would have been able to calm her spirits was in bed next to her. She was alive and it had only been a nightmare. But it had been so real. Encased in Helena's arms the tingles that had been going through her body began to subside. There was still a dull ache in some of her joints and especially in her right foot. But otherwise the heat that seemed to incase her frame was gone.
When she felt the kiss on her shoulder a shudder went through her body. Helena had placed a kiss on her shoulder and it had offered her comfort and sparked something inside of her. Almost at the same time as the kiss was placed did it dawn on Myka that Helena was rubbing her naked back. Helena had kissed her bare shoulder. Earlier when she had been in a haste to find the arms that would comfort her she had forgotten about taking her shirt off. Now with a little more clarity Myka remembered. Almost immediately she pulled away and sat there staring at Helena. Then looked down and back up into Helena's face before scrambling for the covers drawing it up to cover herself.
