The walk back to the tower went without incident. "Well, my door is always open." He paused for a moment and then added, "literally. The lock doesn't work right now."
He stopped in front of the tower and leaned forward to give Chloe a kiss. "I'm sure you'll be able to scavenge something from the kitchens. Or from Merri - I'm sure he has food," he said against her lips. "I'll keep you up to date with what I get. Good luck with the fireworks display."
One more quick kiss and he then he started off for home.
