Walking inside of Harvey's penthouse apartment, Alice instantly felt a weight lift off of her shoulders. After all the fucking chaos she had gone through tonight, she needed this. She needed to relax, even if it was with the one man she wasn't supposed to be spending time with. During the drive, Alice made sure to touch up on her makeup. She isn't sure what frightens her more: the fact that she was making herself this pretty for a married man or the fact that she didn't feel even a tiny bit guilty over it. She knows she should but she just can't bother to pretend. Not when she knows how the night's going to end already.
Harvey was quite the gentleman, taking off her coat and supplying Alice with a drink. In her mind, he was already quite the keeper.
"How'd you know my favorite drink?" Alice questioned, walking towards the floor to ceiling window which overlooked the entire city. It's a view she's familiar with but nonetheless, it never fails to take her breath away.
"I guessed honestly. I'm a fan of whiskey too so I just hoped you'd like it," Harvey admits, standing next to her.
The glow of the lights outside poured into the window, allowing the both of them to bathe in it. Now Alice wasn't much of a romantic due to love disappointing her so many times before. But this was probably the closest thing to romantic. That, and the one time that Roman stole a big bottle of champagne for them to drink while hiding away from that one really shitty dinner party when they were teenagers. That was probably one of the few romantic moments in Alice's life.
