“I know..” was his mumbled reply, his gaze dropping for a moment as he tried to forget his worries. It was impossible, however, so he gave up, instead watching as his girlfriend rose and headed for the door. “What is?” Alex cocked his head, a smirk playing at his lips as she answered. “Oh, so you think it’s the other way around, huh?” It totally was. “Well we’ll just have to test out that theory when you get home, won’t we?” Chuckling, he stuck his tongue out at her in return, grinning widely as he suddenly remembered what they’d been talking about before. “You’re right, I do! Maybe just a little wallowing, and then I’ll get to planning..” A more serious expression replaced his teasing one, and he held her gaze. “Text me when you’re on your way back, yeah? If you’re not home in two hours I’m coming after you.”
“It's totally the other way around,” Peri replied confidently, echoing his thoughts. “And I’ll prove it when I get home.” She leaned against the doorframe with arms crossed, her smile softening as she listened to him. “Yes, that sounds like a much use of your time. You’d better have it ready the second I walk in the door, though. I don’t like to be kept waiting.” Her face fell at his sudden sobriety, and she cocked her head slightly as she responded. “Yeah, of course. Always do. It shouldn’t even take that long, actually.”
