Despite herself, Arianeira felt her annoyance with him evaporate. She let her hand brush slightly against his uninjured one as she watched him. "Yes?" She prompted softly.

"I..." The male faltered, eyes on the hand being touched so softly, "I apologize." He glanced up a moment, then back down, "I acted wrong due to pain. I apologize."

"Apology accepted." Arianeira said quietly. "Are you going to be alright?" Whatever he'd done to it, his hand was badly burned and could do with proper medical attention.

James grinned gallently. "I've had worse." He said with as much bravardo as he could muster. He looked down at his hand, lost in a memory for a moment. "Far worse..."

Arianeira felt slightly awkward, as if she was intruding on a private moment. He was obviously recalling a painful memory and she wondered what had happened. She watched his face uncertainly, not sure whether or not to speak. She didn't know him well enough to tell.

James coughed lightly. "Sorry. Miles away." He said embarisedly. His mind run over that scar on his side. Still as shiny as the say he'd got it. "Its late. We should sleep.."

"Yeah..." Arianeira agreed, a slightly worried crease appearing between her brows. "Erm... goodnight then, James."

James gave a warm smile at the use of his name, his mind suddenly on how he'd like to kiss away that frown, but instead he walked towards his room, then looked at his hand. In a strange way, it still felt like her. He looked back at her, wanting to say something. Anything that would work around any gap between them, but couldn't find anything to say. He placed the darker hand on the doorframe, ignoring the pain that shot up his left arm. He looked back at the female again, almost longingly, then stepped into his room, not bothering to move the door even an inch. Maybe she'd view it as a suggestive movement, or maybe she'd view it as offencive. At the moment, the Captain didn't care. His left arm slowly went numb as Stratford mentally tuned out the pain.

Arianeira smiled at him as he disappeared into his room. She raised an eyebrow at the open door, then headed towards her own. She paused in the doorway, glancing back at his over her shoulder thoughtfully. She smiled again at her own hesitancy, then stepped through into hers, closing the door quietly behind her. She leaned against it for a second, then headed for the bed, picking up the pillow she'd thrown earlier on the way.

James yawned as he paced his room. He callapsed onto his bed and just lay there, staring at the wall blankly.

Arianeira sat cross-legged on the blankets, resting her hand on her chin thoughtfully. Her eyes occassionally strayed to the door and she berated herself silently every time she noticed. Exasperated, she got uo again, moving over towards the window and looking out with interest at the planet below her. So this is what he fought for... She mused.

Silently, James run his right hands middle finger down the darkened left palm. Noting with consern there was no feeling, he cursed loosing attention. He cursed the Culture and their desire for Human items and he cursed himself for sitting on his arse when what he, himself, wanted was over the hall.
He stood slowly and walked to the doorway, feeling his heart pound as he looked at the females closed door.

Arianeira glanced over at the door again and this time didn't stop herself wondering. She had a sudden urge to get up and leave the door open, but fought it. She sat up on the bed and shifted a bit to get more comfortable. She knew there was very little chance of her actually getting any sleep. She frowned slightly. "Why am I so confused?" She muttered under her breath.

Badom. Badom. Badom. Why is it, James wondered as he stared at the handle on the females room, that my hearts always loud when I want to be quiet? She'll hear it in a minute! He raised a hand to knock and paused, right hand fisted to knock but frozen. His entire body quivered slightly a moment, then a part of his mind woke up, made his fist go against the door enough to knock, then went back to sleep. Damnit you no good -blank- where the -blank- did you -blank-ing go?!

Arianeira frowned, unsure whether she'd just imagined the slight knock on the door. She hesitated a second, but the sound didn't come again. She slid off the bed and padded across the floor in bare feet, until she reached the door. Her hand rested on the handle for a moment; she took a deep breath and pulled it open. "James?" She said, confused and pleased at the same time. "Are you alright?"
