"Is it?" he asked, surprised. "Is it only that you prefer your own bed? Ah—but I suppose I should not pry." He brightened. "Would you like to go to the opera?" he asked, quite amused by the idea. Her sarcasm made it sound so unattainable, as if the city did not have its own opera house. He frowned. "Oh, but those are a bit late for you, I should think. Except for the Sunday shows. What day is it?" He always had such trouble remembering days. They went by so quickly, all one after the other.
"We can share this one, if you are not so opposed to taking my arm," he pointed out. He opened the bedroom door, and held it open. "If you can think of nothing else, we may as well get started. The day is not so long, after all."
He waited for her before making his own way to the stairs, carefully holding the rail as she descended. His eyes had been darker since he'd gotten her to calm down, all her emotions at a low simmer.
"Where did I leave my keys?" he murmured once he reached the first floor, opening and shutting drawers on the side table he kept in the hall. It had been a while now since he last used his car, and whenever he needed it, he wound up having to hunt down the keys again. Each time he decided he ought to start keeping his keys somewhere easier to find, and so each time they were somewhere new and more confusing.
Perhaps he ought to get some manner of cabinet. A dedicated cabinet for keys and phone cords and other such things.
"A-ha!" he said as he found them. He picked of the pair of leather gloves sitting atop the table, the keyring dangling from his fingers.
