Vincent silently watched Alexis as she went to work diligently, only every so often did they both meet eyes and exhange a small smile. Each of them felt a little butterfly or ten swell within them at it, but they never showed it to the other. Everything seemed so perfect and was going very smoothly, despite Vincent's previous doubts. He couldn't help but feel an urge to suddenly scoop her up and plant a kiss on her lips to sweep her off her feet, but never capitalized on that notion.<br/><br/>As time wound down, Alexis visited him again and began to explain the coming situation, "That's good. I can't wait to see you outside of this element," he said. Nodding, he smiled as they exchanged idle conversation until a small ringing could be heard at the door. He turned to see the newcomer, as it seemed to give Alexis an uneasy feeling, or so he noticed.<em>Hm? Who is this guy? Some ex-boyfriend or something?</em>Vincent quietly pondered the options and waited to see what the outcome of this little meeting would be.
