There was a heightened level of anticipation in the air as Kellen and Rhys ascended the Tower. They didn't see many people as once Sergei left, Kellen suggested they take the stairs to the next level and then take the elevator up to their apartment.
Rhys was all for it, happy to do anything that Kellen suggested if it meant that they were alone and Kellen wasn't angry at him.
Kellen thought waiting for the next elevator was a stupid idea when they had perfectly good legs to walk on. That, and he didn't want to wait a damn second longer.
Their duties for the days were done, and now it was time for them to actually relax. Kellen felt like his body was going to vibrate out of his damn clothes, his eye focused on each step as he climbed it, and the warmth he felt in his hand as Rhys held it.
