He'd been about to let his arms fall from around her - they were just in a loose hug at this point, anyway - but at her urgent words, Steve quickly released her, putting a hand under her elbow to help her up. They weren't far from the door, thank goodness, and the bathroom was just around the corner.
She had to be exhausted, after all that crying, and now about to throw up wouldn't help her feel any better. Steve had no problem pampering Rogue even on a normal day, but he resolved to do as much for her as he could, as she would let him, at least until she was feeling better, and started getting exasperated with him. And maybe a little bit more after that, until she yelled at him.
