She breathes in his words as they echo hers, the scent infused with whiskey and cigarettes and her smile just won't quit as all that he is and was is right here, in front of her.
A shudder of want rolls down her spine when he groans, though, and she welcomes it.
"Tempting though that is, I'm not interested in our reunion being against a wall by the bins," she murmurs. "So if my husband would like to follow his wife inside to the third floor, her bed awaits."
She ducks under his arm, dragging her hand along his stomach til her fingers hook into his waistband. She tugs.
"Come with me?" she invites, tilting her head at the door - then grins and tugs harder as she adds, "In all senses of the phrase."
The only thing that has slipped her mind is the cat, but by the time they reach her door, there's a post-it stuck there to say she's gone a-visiting with Katie and Jonah, and Ree can collect her anytime tomorrow. No meowing demands for food on this first night, at least.
same, tbh
