Emily handed a towel to Monica before wrapping another around herself. 'Wow,' she thought as she left the bathroom. 'That was the most awkward shower I've ever had.'

She didn't ask any questions after the few she asked before so other than the sound of the water, there was nothing but painfully awkward silence.

Emily opened her closet, "Do you want a change of clothes?"

Monica shook her head, "N-No, thank you, it's fine."

Emily shrugged in response before taking a pair of jeans, a striped sweater, and white sneakers from her closet.

Monica internally hit her head as she reprimanded herself, 'What was I thinking? I should've said yes!'

Silence fell between them again as both women got dressed with their backs facing one another.

"How long were you here?" Emily broke the silence.

"N-Not very long," Monica lied. "I'm so very sorry again for breaking in here."
