In the Lap of Luxury by Unsweetened Chestnuts

Benjamin's gaze gradually darkened. He stood in place for a long time before he finally made a call. "When did Xander come back? Why wasn't I informed?"

Half of her face was buried in her scarf, only revealing a pair of coy eyes, which made her look rather pitiable.

Xander walked up to her. "Why aren't you getting in the car?"

Grace replied irritably, "I have a car."

Xander looked at her and covered her hand with his own, warming it. "I haven't slept since last night. Humor me, won't you? Don't be angry."

Grace grew even angrier. "Thanks to you, I haven't slept either!"

Xander chuckled. "I'm sorry, it's all my fault."

Xander glanced in the direction where Hazel was waiting. "Besides work, your whereabouts are quite routine and easy to track."
