Library, Monday [6/7]

[ancientbschamp.livejournal.com]

Gabrielle had been hoping for a quiet shift today. She wasn't entirely naive enough to think that just hoping for one made it any more likely to happen, though.

Finding a mis-shelved compendium of Spartan history bristling and rustling its pages at the volumes on Athenian culture surrounding it made her feel vindicated in that touch of pessimism . . . and very, very relieved that this situation could be handled with just a little proper reshelving.

If only it were always that easy.

"You don't think we can be creative?" Henry asked, in a way that would have passed for innocent only if you didn't know him at all. "You should come over some time. We can ... I don't know. Cook dinner. Listen to music. PLay monopoly."

And a few other things that were no doubt similar to Cindy's first thoughts.

"You were going to introduce me to something a little more modern than what I listen to, wasn't that right?" Cindy asked, laughing and leaning in ever-so-slightly. "Tell you what. You prepare an evening of music and entertainment, I'll be in charge of dinner. Sound good?"

"Sounds perfect," Henry said, running his fingertips over the ends of her hair. "When? I teach Tuesday and Friday I'm on the mainland, but otherwise..."

"I'm free most Wednesdays, because I only have my office hours then," Cindy said. "Though Mondays are good for me, too. Thursdays I teach, but that might be doable anyway."

She arched a slim eyebrow at him. "What do you say, Henry? Shall we go wild and crazy and have dinner within the next few nights? Or wait till next week instead?"

"Let's be completely insane and irresponsible and call it Wednesday," Henry said. "Meet me at my apartment?"

He'd have to clean, but he needed to do that anyhow.

See? That was why Cindy lived in a hotel.

"Insane and irresponsible?" Cindy asked, giving him a slow smile. "How delightful that sounds. Wednesday it is."
