...Oh. His cheeks light up. At some point, he realises, he'd stopped paying mind to privacy. With the door open, if someone walked by the room they'd certainly have heard.
How can he know it's so much worse.
"A-aah. I hope that no one heard..." Or worse, poked their head in the door and saw.
No one nearby, blessing of blessings. She sags against the door and wishes she felt more shame than she does. That this spiraled from love and two people frantic for a means of expression makes it no less apparent she won't be marriageable. After those times she swore off bedding anyone until they had made and kept that promise!
But looking at him as he blushes, she can't be ashamed. Just warmed. "Yes. But we can lie here ..."
"Are you sure? Do you - do you want me to leave, if I do quickly and quietly, the servants might not know that anything ever happened!!" He doesn't say it because he wants to go, in fact that's the furthest thing from his mind. But if anything can make this situation better for her, he'll do it.
"Oh please do not! Please do not think it is easy when you have gone."
Not the lonely living with more servants than a fledgling knows what's to be done with. Damn Carlos. Damn the vanity of maintaining a house she'd as soon as burn to the ground than expose another soul to living with its memories. She hugs herself. "I missed you."
If that's the case, he's sorry he even mentioned it. She shouldn't have to hug herself, his arms should be around her instead, and within no more than a moment, they are. "So have I. I...wanted to apologise for how long it has been."
And now maybe he should also be apologising for coming back this way.
