Jade was standing in the middle of the room, shivering, with a puddle of
water growing larger at her feet.
"Take off your clothes." Jack said and he pulled a large towel out of his
dresser and a long, thick top.
Jade looked at him for a second in shock and then took off her shoes, her
dress, and tossed his compass back to him. She undid her dress and then
hesitated a moment before slipping it off and grabbing the towel quickly.
Jack smiled. Jade scowled.
"Thank you for saving my life." Jade murmured. Jack didn't say anything. He threw her the long shirt and walked out of the room, locking it behind him. Jade dried herself off and put of the long white shirt. She tried to dry her hair but it was still fairly wet when Jack came back in with two steaming cups of broth. "Drink it." Jade did as she was told and didn't look at Jack, who was still in his wet things. Jack got out another towel for himself and started undressing. Jade turned away, blushing, and continued to drink her broth. Jack left the room again and came back not a minute later with two large blankets. He put them on the bed on top of the other blankets and drained his cup, setting it on his desk. Jack climbed into bed and rolled up under the blankets so that he was no longer visible. Jade stood there, still cold, still damp, in nothing but a shirt, looking at the bed. Finally she took one of the blankets off the bed and curled up under it on the floor.
