[ Good call. Making that joke will get you unlaid for weeks. Bigger Person Chuck is wise. ]
I know. [ And she'd walked out with only the injuries she has; that's really fucking lucky. But she glances dubiously back at the A&E; she's supposed to waste the time away here while waiting for him to knock off? ]
...I don't want to stay here. [ Not in the A&E, not when there's nothing to distract her. ] How about this, I chill on the roof, and you can come and find me when you're done? [ beat. ] Sitting around here will make me nuts.
[No, Chuck doesn't like that plan either because no one's going to be watching her up on the roof and she's most likely going to be fine, a little more bruised and battered but not in any immediate danger.
Leaving her in the ER though might make the nurses and doctors there crazy and he shares their pain. He really does.]
[ She's twenty nine, not twelve! She doesn't need people watching her; it's not like she'd topple off the roof, right? Raleigh is just about to indignantly make a point about that but then contemplates the merits of being in Chuck's office.
Or agreeing and wandering off after, because Raleigh's extremely aware of the fact that he has a job to do and that job is not babysitting her - she just really dislikes ERs. Besides, the quicker he's done, the faster they can go home. ]
...Fine. [ She'll just wander out once he goes back to work. Raleigh pauses, then starts for the elevators to the upper floors. ] It's still at the same old place, right?
[ She doesn't even know what the hell that means but goes along anyway, sulking as you please, until they reach his office. Raleigh's curious, poking around at the medical text she sees, before rounding over to his desk. ]
Nice place. Is this where you normally sleep over?
[It means loud noises and flashing lights. If a hospital is calm, Raleigh, it's a good thing. Chuck can totally tell that she's sulking and he's failing at not smirking because of it.]
Nah, there's a sleeping room closer to the floor. You think you'll be able to entertain yourself all day?

WHAT ITS TRUE
Yeah, I'll walk you there.

I can walk there myself. You've got work to do, don't you? Patients to terrify?

They can wait an extra ten minutes.
