It was actually a little tricky to knock on Horatio's door with his arms full of unconscious girl, but Atem manages, and there's no sign of awkwardness when the door to the suite at the casino opens. It's late but not terribly late, and Celeste's being cradled with care. The bandage over the bite mark is hidden under the high collar she favors, but she's pale and Atem's got a lifelike flush and that alone might be enough for a keen observer to piece together what's happened.
Atem doesn't look particularly guilty, though. He's unrepentant, but not gloating, either -- from his expression, he might as well be walking a friend into a hospital with a broken leg. An injury that's not life threatening, but which needs care, and one he doesn't feel guilt over.]
