Thread: Money talks, but hearts listen [JamieOBurke x TinyThings]

A soft sigh passed softly curled lips, as a pout was shaped in a thoughtful expression. A cheap pencil was gently tapped against the piece of white paper in front of the young woman. The woman was very organized, having cheaper pencils for sketching, knowing very well her horrid habit of doing this little motion, that damaged the pencil. So cheap pencils for sketching, expensive ones for finishes. And after a few trails of thought, the pencil began it's dance once more, continuing to experiment and play, with the design currently on the table. She was experiencing with new ideas this day, something she often did, and often had a lot of success with. Her creative mind often trailed off by itself, leaving her in worlds, that she new would rarely be a success. Such as high collars, on women dress'. Worked for witches in fantasy movies, but rarely for a normal woman's dress. She'd been working on this design for a few days, and it'd started bothering her, how she couldn't quite make it work. It made her even more excited for her partner to get home, so she could get her head out of her work, and do something else. And just with that thought running through her mind, her smart phone vibrated on the table by her side, and swiping over the screen she saw an image of the one on her mind. She smiled, and quickly read through the message, giving a heartfelt 'awwh', before sending that back towards Elena. She replied and asked how long Elena thought she'd somewhat be, before falling into thought about her, rather then her work. It didn't take many moments before she got a reply from Elena, and already then she had an idea on just what she wanted to do. She had no deadlines with the work she was currently doing, and her tearing mind mind needed a break from it. So she quickly got on her coat, before leaving the apartment, pretty much in her night gown. She wore a simple pair of relaxing sweat pants, and a tank top. She was only heading to the store, to get a few things she knew they here missing for the dinner she was considering, and decided to get some chocolates as well, now that she was there anyway. Getting home, Tatiana fiddled around the house, putting her work in order, paper in shelves and pencils off the table, leaving her work area as clean as it'd been when she started earlier. She put on some soothing music, and started giving the apartment the same run over. Cleaning never really took long, the way Tatiana did it. She did a little bit, every day, making sure there where never any piles of dishes, or anything like that. This way, Elena always got home to a clean house, and Tatiana had something to do in between her breaks from work. Tatiana moved on to take a bath, and moved to prepare a few things in the bedroom, moving stuff around. In doing so, she stumbled upon something she'd bought the week before, and somewhat forgot about. One of the few, expensive things, Tatiana had bought for herself. But it'd been bought for her, with the most unselfish of reasons, and it caused her to curl a slight grin, pushing away one of the newly dried locks of hair from her eyes as she nibbled her lower lip. She then put the outfit aside, where it'd be easily accessible, and moved on towards the kitchen. She prepared the things she needed to make dinner, before checking the time, seeing she still had a little bit to spare, before she'd have to start working on dinner. So she moved on to prepare a fine dinner table arrangement. Soothing candles, and the likes. She watched a bit of TV, taking a tiny sip of white wine, before finally starting dinner. When it was almost completely done, the chops just needing a few more minutes, Tatiana quickly ran off to change, putting on a more tasteful dress, then the relaxing outfit she'd been wearing. A black skirt, with a curved cut, creating a wave from her left knee, to her right hip, showing off a bit more of her legs. She wore a top to match the skirt, and put a little something in her hair, to make it a little more lively, giving Elena something pretty to get home to. Quickly returning to the dinner, she got it off the heaters, just before it had too much, and right where she knew her lover liked it. She checked the time again, and made sure the dinner wouldn't get cold, in the last few minutes before Elena would probably get home. And just then, with that thought, she got a text from Elena, letting her know she was done, and already on her way home. Tatiana smiled, prepared dinner on the table, filled a glass of white wine, and walked over next to the door, where she watched TV from, waiting to hear Elena's steps outside. The moment she did, the TV was turned off, and her attention guided towards the door, greeting Elena home with a wide, red smile and happy eyes. Welcome home, love. She greeted, offering the glass of wine, after Elena had gotten through the door properly, and got off the things she wanted. Hope the meetings wasn't too exhausting. She giggled softly.
