He smells good, is what she notices so close like this. Today it is. Sometimes it's that he's surprisingly ripped under all those fancy clothes. Or that there's something about how he touches her that's different from everyone else, not more confidently but maybe more comfortably, and she's pretty sure that's her own fault somehow.
She fights the good fight to keep her eyes from closing just at the feel of him and sighs. "Not much," Kate concedes. "It's gaudy, tasteless and an invitation to people like us. But if I'm putting on a dress for you, I need heels, make up, and proper accessories which includes the right jewelry."
Putting on a dress for him. She did it for Declan. And she and Imri had made a proper date for it, just before he disappeared. She'd have done it for Sawyer without thinking twice about it. There's a shadow in her eyes, briefly, when she says, "Stay here while I change, or we won't make it out." A shadow because part of her's sure dress-up can only end in tears.
