THE TWO DURING DINNER

ASTRID opened the door to the apartment unit and welcomed Lauren. He walked inside and quickly removed his cap and mask. The other also did the same as he followed.

Lauren put away his cap and mask and then glanced around the unit. As he did so, his gaze collided with a pair of teal-gray eyes. He was startled for a moment. The other was setting up plates on the table.

This image was very… domestic. Like someone who just came back from work finding their partner preparing dinner for them. He stopped and almost slapped himself because of that thought. 

Just where did that come from? Was he too tired, so his brain was making up things without his permission? Yes, that must be it. He was definitely just too tired. Why else would he thought of so much nonsense? Because there's no way he would associate the word 'domestic' with Andreas if he wasn't.
