Aidan had tried to create a balance between smothering Rachel when she was in someone elses body but also giving her some space. Aidan wanted to help her with it but he knew that Rachel was strong enough to handle the bodyswap. It was also a little weird to have his girlfriend's actions reflected in a different body. He knew, mentally, that it was Rachel but it was still hard to get used to. So when she had reassured him that she was fine by herself that night he didn't protest too hard about spending it apart from her.

Alright, so he hadn't protested at all. He didn't even wake up immediately that morning because some part of him really hoped that everyone would be back to normal and Rachel would have found her way back to her own hut in her own body. It would be a relief if that happened, if for no other reason than dealing with Zero and the octopus-thing was getting to be annoying.

So that morning he'd been slow about making his way to her place, grabbing breakfast (and some sausages for Zero) and double-checking that the clinic wasn't swamped with work. Since it wasn't he felt comfortable enough about heading up to Rachel's without seeming like an overprotective boyfriend.

Tossing the sausages to the wolfhound as he knocked on the door and stuck his head inside he called out for Rachel.

"You here?" he asked, not sure if he wanted her to be or not.

One of the nicest things she'd discovered about having Zero around was that no one ever snuck up on her little hut. When she saw his ears perk up and saw him head to go sit outside, she even had a good idea who it was. There weren't really many people he'd actually go out and greet and it gave her time to check on her appearance.

Since waking up that morning, happily in her own body, she'd headed back to her hut with a smile on her face. No one was happier than she, but she had a feeling that Aidan would be just as relieved. And he'd been so great about everything she decided to make him something nice and take it over. But now it appeared he was coming over, which was just as good if not better. Smoothing down the sundress she was wearing she emerged from her bedroom to greet him.

"Look who's back to her usual awesome self!" She gave a little pirouette across the room and spun into his arms. "Miss me?"
