Well, she can very well keep thinking about it until they're alone again, for now she'll have to cultivate that patience of hers for a little longer. It's not even that long a trip anyway, though Ruth takes advantage of those couple of stops to close her eyes a little, enjoying their closeness for what it is.
She'll trust Betty to see when they're approaching their stop, and once she lets her know, Ruth opens her eyes again and moves to get up, making her way over to the exit door.
Even though it's Ruth's apartment, Betty leads the way, tugging Ruth along in her wake through one set of heavy glass doors after another. Three flights of stairs later, and she's breathless at the door, hugging Ruth from behind while she waits for her to get the door. (Because she'd rather hug Ruth now, obviously.)
"Too fast?" It sounds like she's just checking, but Ruth can be so shy, sometimes. Betty loves that about her, but she needs the reminder herself. Rushing at this point would be counterproductive.
