Rory's POV
"Can I get you anything? Water? Coffee? I think I have a few herbal tea's" freya frets while leading me to the main living area gesturing I sit on the navy sofa. She makes a move to go to the conjoined kitchen/dining area but I stop her before she can get any further.
"No, no don't worry about me I just had a croissant and iced coffee from a cafe in the village, I'm fine" I smile not wanting her to make a fuss over me.
She perks up at the mention of the cafe and asks "oh! Which one?"
"I'm not sure the name of it, I didn't check but it's the one owned by Rick and Evelyn?" The older couple from earlier made it clear they knew of my family yet I still naturally used a questioning tone when mentioning them to Freya.
"I thought so! They're the best cafe in town, their doughnuts are to die for" she smiles also sitting down on the chair across from me. A comfortable silence blankets the room for no more than 10 seconds before a look of realisation envelops Freya's face. "You're probably here for Damien right?"
"Yeah, it occurred to me I didn't have anyone's phone number, otherwise I wouldn't just drop in on you like this" I start to feel like a burden, what if everyone was busy? I can't just expect them to drop everything for me.
"Oh no don't worry yourself this is a lovely surprise" she smiles genuinely before turning her head to look at a door from across the room before loudly calling for damien.
It doesn't take long until I see my brothers large frame make it's way through the doorway and into the room. His face lights up when he sees me, I have to admit I missed Damien's enthusiasm and his ability to light up a room with his smile alone, that was always so genuine.
"Hey!" He exclaims coming over to the seating area of the room and sitting down next to his wife, his arm almost immediately wrapping around her waist and pulling her as close to his side as possible. It made my heart melt seeing a blush arise on Freya's cheeks. "I was just about to invite Dominic for a local manhunt to find your apartment, I thought you forgot about us and I was going to have to sniff you out myself" he laughs, Freya Also lets a snort out at the end.
"Forget you? It's hard to forget someone who once went on a date to the cinema with his crushes grandma instead of his crush" I snicker. Damiens eyes go wide and he quickly looks to the side at his wife who had her mouth wide open.
"What!" Freya burst out laughing gripping Damien's knee as she laughs.
"Are you kidding!" Damien looks up to the ceiling dragging his hands down his face in humiliation "do you know how much money I've given Dom for him to not tell that story for the last six years" he drops his head in embarrassment as Freya continues to laugh. I also chuckle holding my hand over my mouth to cover my smile.
"We're you into grandma's before you met me?" Freya managed to squeeze out still chuckling obviously envisioning the scenario of her husband on a date with a 63 year d woman.
"Noooo" Damien dragged out frustrated "this was the one thing I didn't want you to hear" he shakes his head letting out another embarrassed laugh.
"Wait were you actually into grannies?" Amusement drains from Freya as she takes in damiens words but his eyes snap up to meet her's in realisation of how he worded his last sentence.
