Xavier arrived home shortly after Selene. He sought her out first to hear about her outing and found her standing in their bedroom with a sword in her hands.
Xavier cautiously entered the room. "I was not expecting this when I came looking for you. No one informed me that you were learning how to use a sword."
"I wasn't," Selene carefully rested the sword against the bed. "I was testing how it would feel to swing it but it belongs to you. I bought it today."
"Me? How thoughtful of you," Xavier replied.
Xavier closed the door and walked to the bed to inspect the sword. "And here I thought you were practising how you would hurt me."
"Hurt you? Why would I think of hurting?" Selene asked, puzzled by his assumption. "Have you done something which requires me to hurt you?"
"No, not at all. I like to think that I have been a good husband. It is a good sword," Xavier said after lifting it. "Does it come with someone to use it on?"
