Sophia called out several times, but there was no response. She pounded on the door again, but still nothing.

Yet she knew Sean was just outside.

Exhausted, Sophia slumped against the door, wondering how the gentle, loving, accepting Sean had become this... this... "obsessive", frantic, terrifying man.

Sean shrugged."I didn't shower. I reek of smoke. I smell awful."

Sophia shook her head and snuggled into him again.

"I like the way you smell."

"You like smelling smoke? Is that a fetish?"

Sophia pushed his hand away, wrapping her arms around his waist, burying her face in his chest, and inhaling deeply.

"You don't smell bad at all."
