“Nothing quite that dramatic. Don’t worry about it,” Steve assured quickly. “What matters is you didn’t wind up hurting yourself trying to move around.” Shattered glass and going right back to sleep on the bathroom floor were irrelevant when she was looking better, awake and talking and moving under her own power again.
He was glad enough with that that he didn’t even mind that her things being brought over meant someone he didn’t know and trust knowing where he lived. Normally, Steve wouldn’t want strangers in his space, but for Kate’s comfort? To make sure she could spend however long she needed and wanted recovering? That was a different story. Besides, it would be someone she trusted, and he trusted her. By extension, he had to trust that.
“And you’re not going anywhere. I’ll make a little space for your things.” Not that Steve took up much of his own space, not that he expected her people to be bringing her much more than a couple changes of clothes. But it was the thought that counted. The willingness to open his space to her.
Besides, would it be such a bad thing for her to have a few things there in the future? Maybe it would get her over more, staying over now and then. Maybe it was an opportunity.
