Seras padded back into her room from the shower, dressed in pajamas and towelling off her hair. She'd hoped the hot water would either clear her head or relax her, but it had accomplished neither.
So much had happened in the past twenty four hours, from her talk with Walter to Nadia in the gym, that Seras was having trouble wrapping her head around it all. Her friends were hurting. She'd almost tacitly agreed to kill someone. And, to have Walter help her get the weapon to do it.
A monster.
Seras closed her eyes. What did that mean, anyhow?
As she sank down onto her bed, she noticed the bottle of lotion from Sex Ed. class. Seras still hadn't figured out what to do with it. What did you do with pheremone lotion, anyhow. Seras screwed off the bottle's cap and took a tentative whiff. It smelled nice. Light and citrusy. She poured a bit out and rubbed it onto her hands and arms.
The lotion's scent seemed to amplify as the stuff absorbed into her skin. Seras pressed her nose to her fore arm and took a whiff. Delicious. A drowsy feeling of warmth and security began to creep over her, and Seras curled up under the covers.
