( he's ashamed to say that he just watches her for a few moments before he does anything. it always rocks him to see her but seeing her like that, half naked and wet, he can't help but be shocked into speechlessness.
his own shirt is starting to be eaten away with standing in the rain and he can feel the subtlest hint of an itch at his shoulders and neck. he's been inside, tucked away, brooding so he's not in as dire straights as she is.
yet.
when his brain finally kicks on, he starts to cross towards her, still frowning and trying to hang onto the tatters of his shirt as it's eaten away more and more.
when he's close enough to her, his shirt's a thing of the past but he doesn't try and cover himself up. )
Jesus, Lorna. ( the itching on his skin grows a little more prominent now and he reaches up to swipe at his shoulders and biceps while he looks at her. it's not like he hasn't seen her look like this before, naked and wanting.
it's just...been awhile. he swallows. )
We should...get off the street. ( his voice is distracted, a little unfocused due to the sight of her and the way his own skin seems to start burning every time he scratches at his shoulder. )
GO AWAY
