A/N: As usual, I would recommend putting the video on loop.

 

Blankets were laid out across the floor, and two pillows joined them. Food and cards accompanied the soft items, and pale, artificial light shone onto them from the kitchen.


Tying the belt around her bathrobe, she sealed off her thulian pink cotton nightgown. Only the pink neckline of it could be seen. (F/n) pushed several wet strands of hair behind her ears and looked over her attire. She couldn't wear her pink nightgown every night. It would wear out with time with all of the washing that would come from that. Eventually, she would have to wear her olive green or blue satin one around Edmund. Or, she could buy new ones. Already, she had to purchase new blue heels since her other ones had been ruined by the water.


Maybe, a minor shopping trip was in order. Then again, she had worn both nightgowns around her ex ... Yes, a shopping trip definitely was in order. She wouldn't change her whole wardrobe since she didn't want to blow an entire paycheck or two on clothes and shoes, but she could at least switch out her nightgowns, including her pink one.


Opening the bathroom door, she shut off the light and stared at her room for a moment. Once again, the walls were white, but the room itself was empty. Tomorrow, she would be moving in with Edmund. Perhaps, he would carry her into their now shared home like he had brought her into her apartment a few days ago. Her cheeks heated up slightly at the thought.


A pop of a bottle caught her attention. She glanced down the hallway and noted only the kitchen light on. (F/n) smiled some. So, he had brought wine over. Most likely, it was another brand of pinot noir since that was his favorite type of wine.


When she entered the kitchen, Edmund was pouring the beverage into two wine glasses, which he definitely had brought over with him. Most of her glassware except for a few mugs had been sold or moved to Edmund's. The same went for her dishware.


He smiled over to her and held out a glass. Her eyes drifted to the bottle: Belle Glos Las Alturas Vineyard Pinot Noir. She never had tried it before. (F/n) swirled her glass some, and an aroma of black cherries, marionberries, ripe plum and a bit of anise came through. Edmund sipped at his wine, and a satisfied smile overtook his lips. A chuckle couldn't help but escape her.


"What is it?" he asked, lowering his glass some.


"It's cute how you enjoy your wine so much." She leaned forward a bit and rested her chin in the palm of her right hand as she set her glass down. By a smidgen, she noticed him grow embarrassed. "And on top of that, you forgot to match." (F/n) pointed her other index finger at his clothing: a black t-shirt and pants.


Briefly, he glanced down at his attire before over to her. "Well, I don't have that pink color unfortunately, but I'll go buy a shirt soon." He took another sip of his wine while a frown adorned his lips.


"It's fine. I'm going to replace my nightgowns anyway." Edmund made no comment and took another sip of his wine. Inwardly, though, he was quite pleased by that news. Pushing herself up, she took a sip of her wine. As the taste lingered in her mouth more, a woody, cacao and vanilla flavor tickled her tongue. She hummed in approval, and she noted that Edmund glanced over to her out of the corners of his eyes. At that, she couldn't help but laugh again. "Are you that embarrassed by me calling you cute?"
