Chapter 36-2

Leo swung open the door, his blonde hair tamed with a black hat backwards on his head. Marley's back straightened instinctively at the waft of vodka he brought with him into the room. His eyes were still clear though; he had just started drinking.

Her eyes flickered to movement on his left, watching Alec filter in behind him. The two of them were already dressed in dark tones and muted colours, but Marley wasn't surprised by their fashion choices. When asked by Sarah what he was wearing tonight at the table in the mess hall, Leo calmly replied:

"I always wear dark colours. Usually black. That way I never clash with whatever girl is stuck on me that night."

Typical Leo. She wonders what Sarah sees in him only briefly when she does because her mind goes to the most probable reasons and she doesn't like to dwell on those.
