Darcy suddenly felt very aware that he was completely naked while she was dressed, and he rather wished that he’d opted for underwear after all. He stayed where he was for a moment, partly because he wasn’t sure how to move easily with his back hurting, and partly because he didn’t want to turn to her to have a serious conversation with his penis exposed. It seemed weird.
“I am sorry if I have made you feel that way,” he said, a little evasively. “You do not have to apologise to me,” he added, in case that part was not clear. He carefully turned onto his side, although facing away from her, and then he sat up onto the edge of the bed.
