Contessa had come home from the great Unspeakable Get Together. It was part birthday celebration, part meeting, part welcome back to work Boss. It was fun, but Tessa was tired. She wasn't the biggest social butterfly after all. She slipped into her empty house, although after shopping with Nikola, slightly less empty and deposited her things on the table. She looked around with a heavy sigh and headed up to her bathroom. She turned on the shower, and putz around for a minute while it heated up. Contessa was putting off thinking about tonight long enough to soak for a half hour in a hot, hot shower. She stepped out and into a warm robe, smelling of sweet mulberry spice. She dried off, put lotion on, made sure she was presentable in every manner, before heading into her room.
She had a deep walk in closet full of clothes, but she rarely wore any of them. Tav had said to dress nicely so she began a hunt. Clothes ended up shoved on the racks, tossed on the bed, or on the floor as she sorted things out. A half hour later she had six choices hung on the door and the rest finally put away. She stared at the dressed for a long time, one was floor length and eventually discarded as a choice. One was knee length, two were just below the knee, and the others were somewhere in between. She hemmed and hawed over it for sometime before finally slipping into a black, white and grey form fitting bandage dress. She sat at her vanity and spent some time on her hair, charming it up into a fancy twisted pony tail like updo. She dusted on some makeup, nothing major, and a tiny spritz of perfume. She nodded at her reflection before heading downstairs to find her shoes and meet Tavy.
When he arrived to pick her up she was sitting in her living room, reading a book. The knock on the door roused her and she meandered over to open it, heels clicking lightly on the floor. "Hey" she said as she pulled the door open.
