Gavin glanced around the door jam toward the front door when he heard pounding steps along the steps leading up to the deck.<em>Damn, thought they'd be gone longer</em>he thought briefly.<em>Wonder if he got anywhere with her.</em><br/><br/>He pulled his head back so that they didn't see that he had been spying on their little moment on the porch, with Landon spinning Claire.  That did bode well, he thought briefly.  He continued his making of a sandwich as the pair of them entered the house.  The slam of the front screen door echoed to him.<br/><br/>"In the kitchen," he yelled out to the pair.  He contemplated what next needed to happen.  He sliced the sandwich in half, middle of the bread style.  It crunched as the lettuce was cut by the blade.  He turned to wash the knife in the sink, before sliding it back in place.
