Serena arrived outside the private music room about 5 minutes earlier than their scheduled meeting time. As she looked over the glass window, she saw that Charlton was already inside playing with the chords of the piano.
Charlton looked up and stopped playing as he heard the door open.
"You're here early." Serena said as she smiled.
"I couldn't sleep." Charlton answered as he stood up.
Serena grinned as she closed the door shut and locked it. She observed that his coat was placed on top of the piano while his well fitted polo was folded to his elbows with the top two buttons undone.
"Don't you feel hot with that on?" Charlton asked, noting that Serena was wearing a long velvet cape with faux fur trimming.
"What do you think?" Serena asked as she faced him and unhooked the cape, letting it fall from her shoulders leaving it heaped on the ground.
