My Apartment

There's a knock on Eris's apartment door, she looks up from the dinning table, staring at the front door. There's another knock, Eris gets up from the table and walks toward her front door. There's another knock, she roles her eyes

"YEAH IM COMING" she shouts at her front door.

Expecting  to see her Dad or even Jay. Maybe Adam. He's been around a few more times trying to push his luck. When she opens the door, a smirk appears on her face as she leans against the door frame, taking a bite out of her apple. Eris leans in tank top and running shorts with the waist band folded down below her hips. Her belly button charm sits flat against her stomach. Sebastian stands on the other side of the door, smirking back at her, his tongue occasionally poking out and as he sneakily try's to lick his lips. She's watches as he quickly looks her up and down.

"I thought you could do with this" Sebastian smirks at her holding up a bottle of whisky while he walks off to the couch with two bags of Chinese food, his hand grazing her waist. Eris takes a deep, sharp breath in.

"Yeah I kinda could" Eris reads the label as she spins around closing the front door and heading to the kitchen. "You know where I live?" She asks slyly, looking up through her lashes as she two glasses.

"Your assistant really likes me" Sebastian smirks from the sofa as Eris brings to the two glasses over. They do a swap, Eris hands him one glass and he hands her a container filled with special fried rice and orange chicken.

"Oh does she?" Eris silently laughs as jokingly. "So why you here?" Eris asks clutching the glass close to her chest. Remembering vividly what happened last time she had a random guy turn up at her apartment with food. She gracefully places herself on the floor as she eats.

"Wanted to make sure you're ok and to say you were right" Seb smirks as he uses chopsticks effortlessly, placing a dumpling in his mouth.

"I was right?" Eris fakes being shocked as she continues to eat "I am shocked and baffled" She continues to joke with him "what was I right about?" Eris leans on one knee as she eats.

Realising the last time she was in this position she was reliving her darkest memories to a man she barely knew and he kissed her scars. This man in front of her doesn't even know she has scars and there's something comforting to her about this. He sees her for her ms that's all that matters, he's so infatuated with her already without the need to fix her.

"I've only seen a couple days but you have a fucking hard job. So much horror you have to see. How do you come home at night and switch off?" Seb asks, genuine concerns in his voice and eyes.

"Honestly?" She asks taking another mouthful of rice, he just nods as he eats "you don't. You learn to put things in boxes and only open those boxes when you need to. You need to fill your life with happiness and joy otherwise it will consume you into the dark" Eris says, she looks at Seb trying to figure out his game but she can't quite do it. All these years as a profiler and still struggles with him.

"Wow" seb says, it's all he can muster up.

"I'm sorry that was way deeper than you needed" Eris try's to laugh it off as she sips her drink.

"No it's refreshing actually" Seb says calmly, Eris looks up at him confused "well in my line of work people tend to tell you what they think you want to hear"

"Well I do not do that. Probably why they bureau like me so much. Straight talking" They both laugh together.

They talk all night, just laughing, eating and drinking. It was like having an old friend round, there was no awkwardness or sexual tension which usually happens when men come over to her apartment. It' was nice to have a male come into her life and not try it on with her at lest once.

"Wow is that the time?" Eris looks at her phone "it's 1 am. Fuck" she laughs rubbing her face "I gotta get to bed" she jumps up off the floor "you're more than welcome to crash here"

"Don't worry I'm going back to my hotel" Seb smirks at her as she stretches. Eris walks him over to the front door and leans on the doorframe "tonight has been lovely" He gently rests his hands on her bare hips and gently kisses her cheek as he leaves "see you at work"

Eris has to take a minute to stare at him as he leaves, the sheer audacity of that man to act like that in her house. She was the tease, she was always in control. Nope not this time. She met someone who does it better.
