*Rochester stood, perfecting the last details for his guests.*
I do hope that Dorian's guest is really as agreeable as she claims to be. I just wasn't expecting more people.

*Dorian came into the room, looking much less disheveled than before. He smiled at Rochester and Satan.*
"I hope I haven't kept you waiting."

"Just enough to whet the appetite."
*Rochester smiled and gestured to the finely laden table, that they might take a seat.*

"It all looks beautiful."

*Rochester nodded in appreciation and moved to his seat.*
"It pales in comparison."
*He poured them each a glass of wine from a crystal carafe.*
"Thank you for honoring us with your presence. It will make the meal more delightful, I am certain."

"You are too kind. I should thank you for welcoming an intruder into your home."
*She took a sip of the wine*
"This is very good."

"Not exactly. I came a while ago to visit some of my family."
*She laughed*
"And I guess I liked it so much that I decided to stay."

"Well how lovely then."
*Rochester smiled and looked between her and Dorian.*
"So...however did a roguish devil like Dorian happen upon an angel as delectable as yourself? Are you recently acquainted?"

*Satan blushed*
"Oh...things happened. It's a long story."

*Rochester grinned.*
"And modest too."
*He looked to Dorian.*
"I don't know how you do it, sir."
*He turned back to her.*
"Well...long stories are always welcome at this table, but I would certainly never pry."

*Dorian ran his hand through his hair and laughed rather uncomfortably.*
"It's certainly nothing very interesting, Rochester."

Perhaps I should try to steer the conversation in a different direction
"And you, sir? How did you and Dorian come to share a home?"

*Rochester was content enough to switch topics. He grinned lecherously at Dorian.*
"Well...he made quite an impression on me at a party. Seems we are of the same mind in many things. He was new in town and I know how lonely it can be starting in a new place."
*His eyes shifted to her.*
"Guess he just hasn't gotten bored enough of me yet."

*Dorian grinned back.*
"I could never tire of you."
*He sipped his wine.*
"Yes, I'd just arrived from London and he was kind enough to offer me a place to stay."
