They stood by the front door of Nonnatus House just before Patsy was about to leave for her first visit of the day. She held her medical bag in front of her with two hands.
Delia was standing in front of her and took a step even closer. Patsy liked that, but was also a little wary.
Delia reached up and untucked part of Patsy's collar that had been caught under itself. Patsy looked down and smiled at Delia who quickly glanced up and smiled back. But Delia didn't move her hand away, she bought the other one up and took the straps to Patsy's cape between her fingers, one in each hand.
Patsy looked down at Delia who was smiling but not looking up at her. She slowly moved her fingers down the straps until they got dangerously close to Patsy's breasts.
Patsy could feel herself starting to blush slightly
"D-Delia" she whispered, She shouldn't be doing this sort of thing here, someone could see.
Delia looked up at her still smiling cheekily and let go of the straps and simply pressed down on the part where they both crossed over. She left her hands there for a moment and leaned into Patsy slightly.
As she pushed away she looked over Patsy's shoulder to see Trixie standing at the top of the stairs
"Good morning Trixie" She said
Patsy quickly stepped away from Delia and turned towards Trixie
"Morning ladies" Trixie greeted with a slight tilt of her head
"Oh you have yours on too" Delia said confusing Patsy a little "My cape hasn't arrived yet and they look awfully tricky to put on"
Trixie started down the stairs "oh they do take a little bit of manipulation the first time, but you'll get the hang of it. We'll give you some pointers wont we Patsy?"
The sound of her name pulled Patsy out of her slight fear and confusion as to what Delia was talking about "Of course" she answered smiling at Delia
"Well, come on Nurse Mount, Mr Anderson's bed sores wont bathe themselves" Trixie said with a sad smile. She opened the large front door and walked out into the sun.
Patsy turned quickly to Delia and smiled
"Have a good day Pats"
"You too Deels"
