Raleigh now lived with Julie. It was possibly temporary, but currently Julie needed him there. She needed the presence of someone else in her suite and Raleigh's was a calming one after her minor freak out upon discovering she was still blind.
He couldn't be there all the time, though. He had to work and sometimes, Julie had others in her apartment Ellie. Elizabeth. Miles.
She had been left to her own devices for a bit because people had stuff to do and sometimes it was just overwhelming to her, as much as she enjoyed having people there, to have so many people fuss over her.
Not that she'd force anyone out. She was polite about telling people she just needed some space or to take a nap and that she'd be fine and Raleigh would be home soon.
But she wasn't napping this time. Jack had found her a mess of beads, all in their separate boxes, and several packs of string and now Julie sat at her coffee table in the living room, her back against the front of the couch as she carefully rolled beads of different size and shape and texture between her fingers.
When she heard the front door open, she paused, tilting her head a bit to listen to the foot falls in her hall.

She hazarded a guess.
"Raleigh?"
