But not doing it would be worse still. Because Beckett is crying and she did that and to keep hiding would be like spitting in his face.
She does button up her coat and pull the sleeve down over her hand before making the switch to video herself, though. It's silly - doubly silly since her eyes no longer glow, which isn't something she can hide - but it makes her feel a little less exposed all the same.
It takes another second for her to actually look at him through her curtain of hair, but she does it. Baby steps. ]
