Doc, Jaden, Medicine and Some Rest (Myself and leonardo de tigre only)

[Doc Holliday]

Doc felt her shivering as she kept close and that balled up fist on his chest. When her warm tears fell on her face, he knew then she felt regret. Oddly enough, he didn't. He just held her now weak body close, rubbing her shoulder.

"It's OK," he said softly, "I'm not sure why but I feel no shame. You are so......beautiful....so enticing.....so powerful. I just can't explain it."

He reached behind him, stretching a bit, to reach the tip of his robe and then dragged it over to him. He then draped it over and around her, the bottom of it touching the water while the rest stuck to her wet body.
"Here, Jaden," he said softly, "don't want you catching cold. I should bring you to your quarters since they aren't far from here and are close to mine."

Yes, the thoughts of Midori were in the back of his mind but he told himself, he will cross that bridge if and when he gets to it. For now, he just comforted Jaden, awaiting until she was ready to retire for the evening.
