"Here...." he stopped dead in his tracks when he saw her wrapped in the
towel through the crack in the door.  He cleared his throat and averted his
eyes immediately, though that wasn't exactly an easy thing to do.  He held
out the robe in her general direction.  "I should...give you some privacy,"
he said waiting for her to take it, so he could make a hasty retreat and
still keep some measure of dignity.

Talk about being to the point of exhaustion, Julia thought as she accepted
the robe and mumbled something about being right out and closing the door
long enough to put the robe on and toss the towel in the clothes hamper and
go back out, but she had just barely caught the fact he had asked her to
rest.  She moved past him and sat, almost fell onto the edge of the bed as
she looked back at him tiredly.  Julia didn't even put two and two together
about her being in a towel at the door.

"Kat.." she murmured as, not even bothering with crawling up to get under
the covers and only having the energy left to do exactly what she was doing
at the moment, she laid back on her side and curled up into the robe, hands
and feet barely peeking out as she seemed to use that itself as a blanket
and laid her cheek on her hands covered by the cuffs of the robe and wet
hair fanned out behind her "Get.. Kat..... 'nite.... Dere....k..."
