Rupert Giles's senses were heightened as he walked through the door, after a long day at Council HQ.

He followed his discriminating nose to the kitchen where he spotted the large yellow pot, its contents simmering gently. He inhaled deeply. //Lobster Bisque.// Also freshly baked bread.

But no Davies.

Only a card propped against a vase of daisies.

Sorry, love, was called away. Emergency session, planning on Newcombe project. I'll try to be back before bed. In the meantime, enjoy. D

Soup. Flowers. Wine.

And a considerate but missing lover.

He settled down to wait.

Hungry ... for more than food.
