Aria sat in the window seat in the library and watched through the diamond patterned glass for any sign of the car. He'd been there all morning, fidgeting impatiently, anxiously waiting for his husband's return. Narim had been away on business for months and Aria had missed him terribly.

He went straight to their bathroom, locked the door behind him, then stood beneath the jet of hot water in the shower and let himself cry, forehead pressed to the hard tiles.

" ... I'm sorry..." he whispered.

If someone got a dollar for every time Aria ever said sorry they'd have been rich in no time.

Besides, it would give Aria a chance to buy him a present as a peace offering, even if the last thing he wanted to do in his state was spend hours walking around in public.

He was hungry but didn't dare ask for breakfast.

He swallowed and looked at Narim, offering him a little a smile.

Date: 2013-05-10 04:57 pm (UTC)From:The car was waiting for him outside the house and the chauffeur opened the back passenger door for him. He thanked him quietly but was silent on the journey into the city centre.
He was tired and his body ached, the weather was cold, he would rather have been at home. But Narim wanted him to go out shopping so he had to kill at least a few hours doing just that. He went from shop to shop and bought a book for himself and a new shirt he thought Narim would like on him, then he went in search of a present for his husband.
Narim was difficult to buy for because he would buy whatever he wanted himself, but Aria eventually found a double deluxe limited edition CD of Bizet's 'Carmen' that he didn't have but would probably appreciate. Narim enjoyed his opera, and Carmen was one of his favourites. Aria also found a black silk scarf he thought he might like and bought him that as well.
He was back at the house by four o'clock and was starving - he hadn't dared eat out or buy so much as a snack, he knew there was a chance his husband would be angry if he did, missing breakfast had been his own fault after all. He sat in the living room with his new book and curled up to read while he waited for dinner.
