Ellie feels Clarisse shiver at the kiss, and has to physically stop herself from naturally following that, kissing her more. It's not that she doesn't want to. She wants to. That's- never a question around Clarisse.
But there's a whole camp of people who will already have plenty to gossip about, probably, and Ellie's not keen on putting either of them in that position.
And yeah. Their whole friendship with each other has always contained some element of the physical, and that includes comfort. But there's so much more than that, and it's stacking up fast.
Including this part.
So Ellie exhales, hesitating, still holding on. It wouldn't be the first time. It's not like Ellie kicked Clarisse out after Satinalia.
"Yeah. But it's kinda hard to want to sleep alone after this." And, because there's no point in just not coming out and saying it: "... wanna move our stuff together?"
