Jude; A Surprise Unwanted
Dane had a few quiet days to himself, luckily. His week since he had been back were just an onslaught of faces and catching-ups. Imogen was the first he had to endure, along with his brothers, then Wren, Rory...the list went on. So it was nice to have his house empty for the weekend, some camping trip planned while he was gone. Aaron and William tried getting him to attend, but he blamed course work and errands on the reasoning he had to stay. Lies. Dane needed some time to decompress, to center himsel; like some hippie mentality. Honestly he had a bottle of scotch that was calling his name and with others gone he could bring out his books and read up on magic with out a worry.
Three fingers deep, the amber liquor was poured. It’s oak-y scent was sweet to Dane’s nostrils before sipping. This was heaven, not to most, but for the Aries he loved being alone---made it easier to get what you wanted. However the door bell rang, chiming through the house and loudly in the den where he stood. “Fuck me.” exhaling to himself, placing his drink on the table before he walked briskly to the front door. Who could it be? Perhaps Amazon if he thought about it, probably some freshman deliverying to the house instead of the house’s P.O box.
With a heavy sigh, he swung the door open when his face flashed with shock before smoothing into intrigue. “Well, well the hermit has left his cave...I feel like I should be clapping or something.” he opened the door more, motioning for him to come in before he began to walk away and back to the den (assuming he’d follow). “Come now Jude, bore me for a bit will you?”
