Laura Palmer’s Flat, London, England

“I don’t think anyone followed us,” said Acton as he looked down on the street below Laura Palmer’s apartment. Located within walking distance of the university, it had only taken fifteen minutes to arrive, with only a single umbrella to shield them from the rain. Acton closed the blinds and returned to the entrance. Laura flipped on the light as Acton stepped out into the hallway and took one last look down the stairwell.

“Good! Then maybe they don’t know where you are right now.”

“For now at least,” he said, removing his shoes and jacket.

“Tea?”

“Sure.”

Laura headed to the kitchen leaving Acton to survey his surroundings. It was a small, two-bedroom apartment, kept very neat and nicely decorated with artifacts and furniture from around the world. The couch looked incredibly inviting.

Laura entered the living room where Acton had sat down. Smiling, she took a seat beside him, curling her leg up so she could face him. “You look exhausted. The shower is over there,” she said, pointing toward the bathroom. “Why don’t you freshen up, change your clothes and I’ll order us some Chinese.”

Acton nodded. “A shower sounds great.” He sighed then took an exaggerated sniff of his armpit. “I think I need one!” Laura laughed and playfully slapped him on the shoulder.

“Go clean up, stinky, and I’ll order some food. Anything in particular you’d like?”

“If they’ve got a good moo shu pork I’ll take that, otherwise anything is fine, as long as there’s some meat in it,” he said as he got up. “If it’s all vegetables I’ll just be hungry again in half an hour.”
