Monday night at Nell and Gladio's

[mylandmyrules]

Nell was feeling a little... itchy, maybe. She couldn't quite put her finger on it, but she knew she wanted to be home and snuggled up to Gladio. So, finger foods, comfort foods were the decision of the day. Mini mozzarella sticks, jalapeno poppers, mini quiche bites, pizza bites, mini egg rolls - any variety of things she could stick in the oven to heat up and nibble on while, well, potentially doing other things.

Gladio had found himself much more distracted during his usual Monday errands than usual, too; it was kind of ironic, that he kept getting distracted by how much he just couldn't wait to get home and spend some more time with Nell, but then those distractions left him taking longer to actually finish those errands so he could actually go and do that. It didn't help that his stop at the gym to check on things meant having to print out signs reminding people about proper locker room conduct and not to get too creative with the use of various pieces of equipment.

Although, now that he thought about it, there weren't terrible ideas there, either.

Either way, his lack of focus meant skipping his trip to the store, but he still ended up coming home at around the same time as usual, and the moment he stepped into the house, he was already started to feel better and more relaxed. And he knew that would improve even more once he tracked down Nell.

"Hey," he said, grin maybe even a little more crooked than usual once he did and leaned in to give her a kiss.

"Hello, you," Nell said, stretching up to kiss him. "I feel so much better now that you're home."

She always did, but today in particular for some reason. "I hope you don't mind, but I just have a whole bunch of nibbles for dinner. You can always have some Cup Noodle too, if you want."
