Drabble number five, "Invitation"

They were the only two in the locker room as they grabbed their stuff. “Madrigal?”

Seph turned and met Charlie’s gorgeous-

-eyes again. “Yeah?”

He gave her a gentle smile. “Do you have a place to stay? I’m looking for an apartment-mate. Something tells me you’re my kind of person.”

Seph looked into Charlie’s eyes and examined him closely, using the ability she’d practiced after leaving home.

She used a light touch and didn’t dig too deeply.

When she’d finished, she gave a nod and ventured a smile. “Sounds good to me.” He was a good person. Worth trusting.
