Caleb hung up the phone a few minutes later, rubbing both hands over this face as he got up out of bed. He crossed the room still yawning when he decided he'd better brush his teeth before Estelle got there. He was very self-conscious about stuff like that even though he knew Estelle would care less. Leaning on the bathroom counter, Caleb stared at himself in the mirror.
His short dark hair was freshly cut and spiked with gel. Or at lest it had been before he'd originally gone to bed few hours before. Holding the blue toothbrush between his teeth he ran his hands under the tap then began to rework his hair. No need to look overly dishevelled. Finishing up in the bathroom, he made his way back through the apartment hoping he still had some wine in the kitchen.
He suddenly felt sheepish. It was the middle of the night, Estelle had called him asking to come over; there was no need to be trying for a seduction. Caleb scratched at the back of his skull as he put the bottle of wine back into the fridge. Moving away from it, he turned on his heels and opened it again pulling the bottle back out and getting two glasses from the counter.
The doorbell rang before he was back out to the living room. He made a small grunting noise in his throat as he put everything down on the coffee-table, letting out a deep breath.
He counted to five before opening the door, wishing suddenly that he'd changed into a pair of jeans, instead of having left his pajama bottoms on. Estelle was standing in the hallway of the building dressed in a black slip dress, which was always Caleb's favourite on her. Any thoughts on trying to look bored at her arrival was useless.
Reaching one arm up to the top of the door, his eyes swept the length of her, catching at the edge of flesh just above the lacy neckline of the dress. His mind went numb and it took him a few seconds to realize the redhead was saying something.
"Huh-huh" he mumbled as he gave her a sideways hug closing the door locking it. Moving completely on instinct, the dark haired man pulled her to him quickly for a kiss. He felt her smile as the kiss was deepened, her own hands on his hips. They stood there in the darkened hallway for a few timeless moments just kissing; their bodies nearly molded to each other, her pale slim hands roaming gently over his thighs and lower back, his own at her neck and ribs. They finally broke the kiss only when they stumbled against the wall and Caleb moved his left arm to balance them both placing his hand firmly on the wall just over her shoulder.
"Hey you." Estelle whispered into his ear as she wrapped both arms around him pulling him even tighter to herself.
