Bardon was a little worried when Elaine frowned at him while he spoke, but felt a wave of relief when she ultimately accepted. She didn't seem especially happy about it, but at least she was getting under the covers on the bed now. Bardon winced slightly at seeing the mess between her legs, but it was too much to ask of her to get back in the bathtub to wash it off, and Bardon didn't want to compromise her dignity...too late for that...any more than he already had.
He grabbed his tossed-aside pants and pulled them back on, before he stood up and started to turn away, when he heard Elaine's voice again...and he froze at her request. He turned back to her slowly. He wanted to say no, it was a very un-gentlemanly thing to take advantage of a vulnerable girl like that...but, her eyes looked so hopeful, he already had sex with her, and...well, she was literally asking. After a pause, Bardon forced a smile. "...Sure. I can do that, yeah." There was an awkward pause. "I'll go get more medicine and food for now, though. Just wait here, I'll be back."
Bardon then collected his shirt and put that back on as well, and went to mix a few more herbs. It was still morning, and for now, Bardon just wanted Elaine to rest as still and easy as she could to heal better. He brought her another mix of medicine-paste, a blend to promote healing rather than a painkiller, and carefully spoonfed it to Elaine. Bardon had his own errands and chores through the day to perform, but for Elaine, he just continued to encourage her to close her eyes and let herself nap through the day. After noon, Bardon put together a small lunch for Elaine; some wild vegetables, and a strip of dry salt-preserved meat. He didn't have too much in the way of variety, considering the snow-heavy winter, but it was healthy enough. After that, Bardon started on baking something, then took care of cutting some more logs for firewood outside his home, before coming back in to finish the baking. That night, dinner was fluffy, fresh, hot bread, along with a bowl of lightly seasoned potato stew.
Bardon monitored Elaine's condition closely throughout the day, making sure that she wasn't suffering any lasting damage from her ordeal of hypothermia. He removed the bandages from her ears at one point to examine them, they has gotten the worst of it and seemed to need a little more time to fully recover, so Bardon gave Elaine another dose of mild painkiller and put the cotton-padded bandages back on to protect her ears. The rest of her body seemed to be recovering adequately, she'd probably be close to normal with one more good night's sleep, though Bardon was of the opinion she seemed a little malnourished. He didn't say anything about that aloud, though.
Eventually, night fell. Then came the part Bardon was apprehensive about. He kept his pants and shirt on, as he started putting out the candles and lamps around his home, leaving only the low crackling fire in the fireplace near the bed going to continue to provide heat and a little light. Bardon walked over to the bed, looking at Elaine with a sympathetic expression before he sighed softly. "Alright. I'm going to sleep now, and will spend the night in bed with you." He said, as he slowly pulled up one edge of the covers to start gently slipping himself in, trying to avoid disturbing Elaine as much as possible. He laid himself out on his back, to the side of Elaine, making sure to give her some space and plenty of the blanket for herself. He turned his head to look at her with a gentle gaze. "Is this okay, Elaine?" He asked quietly.
