With a soft smile at him, Juliet goes first to the small bathroom and washes away what feels like years of sweat and mud. Dressing again in clean clothes, she takes the remaining bedroom and passes out.
When she opens her eyes again, sunlight is pouring into the room and she brings one hand to her face, rubbing. Slowly pushing herself up, she looks around the room as she runs a hand through her hair. The layout of all the DHARMA houses is the same, and for a second, it's easier to believe everything that happened was a dream.
Until she hears the front door open and close.
Getting up, she uses the bathroom before pulling her hair up in a messy bun and padding out to the living area. She can smell the coffee but doesn't see anyone, so she pours herself a cup and goes out to the porch where she finds James. No Jin, Daniel, or Miles, though.
Dropping beside James on the front steps with her mug, she can't help but do a double-take.

"You shaved," she notes. "Feel better?"
