She'd missed the part where he shadowboxed his morning away.

Still, the way she's approaching makes his smile falter just a little bit. Maybe he should do this more often, shove something nice on her every so often. Then she might not consider a little act of kindness a threat to her well-being.

"Would you believe me if I said I thought you could use it?" he asked softly, sighing as he worked. "Maybe I wanted to thank you... for agreeing to go to Ginny's party, for being a constant presence here." He paused long enough to begin transferring the food to serving dishes. "And definitely to apologize for not having a bathtub here."

It was taking his mind off what he'd lost in the month he'd been a resident of this City and spirits knew he needed that. She was smart enough and knew him well enough to guess at that, too.
