Re: Eddie and Rose and Open
"My ego is half my charm," Eddie joked, his grin going even more crooked. This was what he missed most about having good friends around. That, and not sleeping in a tent, even if that tent was pretty nice. He waggled his eyebrows at her when she mentioned bringing something back for her, and put a hand to his lips. "Hmmm...let me see...did I bring anything back for you...." He made a show of hemming and hawing before he reached into his back pocket and pulled out a small leather pouch, inside of which was the necklace he had gotten for her in Turkey. He had rolled his eyes. "Sad to see my absence was only sadly noted if I came bearing gifts but thankfully I know you well."
He tussled with the puppy for a moment, who had calmed down a bit after their exertions. "Three months, huh? Can't imagine what he'll look like in three more," he said, shaking his head before turning his attention back to his friend. "Both," he said, smiling at her. "And maybe longer, depending." Depending, of course, if he could win back Susan. Not that he ever really had her, he supposed. "So, how have you been Rosie?"
