He had the table set up, with Mort's help in the effort. And while it wasn't a great feast, the food from the Italian place down the street had just arrived, hot and ready to be served. Doug set it down, thankful for the heat the building exuded on the chilly April night. Thankfully, the cold had let up just enough to make the evening workable. Doug had a few paper lanterns strong across from the roof access to the edge. He wanted this night to be perfect, to soften the blow of the question he had for Cass.
The selfish part of him hadn't wanted to tell her he'd made a decision until after, but the problem with two people who could hear body language as if it was spoken word, was that there were no secrets he could keep from her. That, and Doug hated hiding anything. He and Cassandra communicated in a way that was entirely probable no one else on the planet could. He loved her.
So, before the night was out, he was going to ask her to help him with the biggest decision he'd ever had to make in his life. Something he couldn't imagine being able to do without her help.
Table set and the sounds of the city's early night life rising, Doug paced the roof and waited for her.
