Um. Whoops. The intended implication was that they didn't actually have sex -- they shared the bed, but Hodya "tucked herself in on the far side" and Joel lay awake with his own thoughts. It might have been wiser for him to go upstairs and sleep in his own bed, but he would have been afraid of making his rejection obvious.
Meanwhile, Hodya's been dating him for two years, albeit in a laidback sort of way, and she doesn't really know the extent of his vocational rebounding. She was assertive in putting the moves on him, insisting on their own room and such, but in other contexts you could see that as being a good choice: if the guy won't take the initiative to confront matters, do it yourself.
So yeah, I should have made that clearer, since a fade-out on two people in bed usually means hott sexings ahead.
