Abby stirs but doesn't awaken when she hears Lee enter the bathroom and turn the shower on. It's not until the sounds of his retching reach her that she stirs again, this time mumbling and scrubbing a hand over her face as she sits up. She frowns as she hears the noises from the bathroom and stands up from the bed, shuffling over to the bathroom door. Knocking, she speaks up. Lee? Lee...are you okay?
He groans softly, flushing the toilet and closing the lid. Laying his head against the cool surface he has to make several attempts at speaking before he can do so without sounding panicked. Yeah...yeah....He takes a deep breath. Just upset stomach...He bites his lip at the small lie, knowing he can't keep this to himself for ever but unwilling to lose everything in this moment.
She tries the door and, finding it unlocked, opens it and steps into the bathroom. She looks slightly shocked at the sight of him, naked on the floor in front of the toilet. She crouches down next to him, her hand at his forehead. Have you been feeling sick all day?
He curls his arms and legs against himself when she comes into the room, feeling ashamed at being seen by her, like this. Once she's moved close and has her hand on him however, he can't resist the urge to shift his body and lean against her. No...just hit me as I was leaving work. He swallows hard, dry heaving now that his stomach is empty though the feeling of nausea persists.
