"I'm going to take a quick shower, I'll be back soon," Lucas said as he picked up his clothes from the floor and took the rest of his things upstairs. Jen smiled as she watched him disappear up the stairs before she started setting the food on the table.

Lucas didn't take too long in the shower, so Jen did not have to wait for him for too long at the dining table.

"You made a feast today," Lucas said as he draped his towel around his shoulders. Since winter started, Lucas reduced the number of times he walked around shirtless and would mostly be seen with a robe whenever he was in the house.

"Mmh, I was in the mood for cooking," Jen answered and sat next to him rather than across from him like she normally did. Lucas turned his head to look at her curiously as he wondered about the sudden change, but then he decided that he wouldn't comment much on it. Jen took over the table and served both of them food before prompting Lucas to eat.
