Erica heard Cass working as she entered the living space, but couldn't yet tell if that was a good or bad thing. She pulled off her short boots, letting her woolen socks slide on the wooden floor of the entryway as she saw Alfred. He looked delicious, and she was<em>very</em>glad she'd made a point to eat before seeing him again. She took off her brown leather jacket and hung it on the coat rack as he kissed her, her outfit being a simple white shirt under a navy cardigan with a knee length Jean skirt and leggings. She kissed him back lightly and squeezed his arm.<br/><br/>"It's so lovely to come home to you.  How did you sleep?"  She nuzzled against him and kissed his neck lightly, feeling the heat pulsing so close to the skin.  She shook her head and kissed his lips again.
