Mecca smirked and brought her hand up to bite her finger. Ignoring Scim as he bounced around them.
"I would have thought the answer to that would be obvious." He said with a quirk of his eyebrow, turning from the room and leading her out towards the stairs.
"Scimitar, shop." He said sternly to the dog who was following them happily. Stopping he gave a bark and started to whine.

Covet smirked at his reply and expression and began to follow him towards the stairs. At Scimitar's bark and whine, she stopped and turned to scratch the young Grim behind his ears.
"Go on Scim. It's bedtime," she smiled softly at him and pointed towards the shop. "Morning will be here soon," she promised the beast and she stepped away to take Mecca's hand again.

Scim gave an irritated snort and stalked off to the shop, knowing full well he would be back in a few moments and howling outside the door.
Mecca watched him and shook his head.
"He will not stay there." he said as he took Covet's hand again and led her through to the bedroom. "Disobediant creature."

"I maintain you are a glutton for punishment," she smirked as they walked into the bedroom and she shut the door, knowing full well that Scim would return and that having grim claws dig into you while you were trying to drift off was not a pleasant experience. "I mean... you are the one who summoned him after all," she teased as she got herself ready for bed. "At least Meepo behaves," she smirked and slipped under the covers.
"I love Martiya, but I am glad tomorrow it is closed. It has been a long week," she smiled as she fluffed her wings a little and rested her head on her pillow.

Mecca gave a snort of laughter and got ready for bed, slipping in next to her and lying face down.
"As if that creature has the brain to be anything but obedient." He said slipping his arms under the pillow and resting his head on it.
"We could go for a walk, to the tea house or something in the afternoon if you want. I have to see a client in the morning."
He rolled his eyes and smirked as he heard the familiar scratching at the door.

Covet smirked and pulled on one of his wings at his comment. "Meepo is quite intelligent, thank you very much," she smirked and shifted to lay against him, resting her head on his shoulder and closing her eyes.
"A walk sounds nice," she smiled and cracked an eye towards the door. "He's your dog," she smirked and closed her eyes as she turned over onto her stomach as well to hug her pillow. "And if he's going to be howling all night again, you get to go sleep with him in the shop," she smirked.

Mecca closed his eyes and blocked out the whining that was coming through the door.
"Heh, he has to learn that it will not get him anywhere." He said shifting onto his side so that he could wrap himself around her. "Just ignore him, he'll go away."

"Don't make promises you cannot keep," she smirked and shifted a little to bury herself into his warmth. "Good night Me-chan," she sighed softly and pressed a soft kiss to the side of his neck already starting to drift off despite the obnoxious whining and scratching at the door.

Mecca woke in the spare room, Scimitar curled up into a ball next to him.
Giving the sleeping grim a glare he slipped out of the bed and crept along the hall and down the stairs to the main bedroom. Slipping back in next to Covet and slipping his arms around her. This really had to stop.

"Mmm, welcome back," she sighed softly with a smirk as she shifted a little to press herself against him. Pulling his arms tighter around her, she held onto them for a moment, then turned over to crack an eye and look at him.
"Why don't we just let him sleep with us Me-chan? I miss you," she said, closing her eye and wrapping her arms around him.

Mecca smirked at her and looked to the light that was creeping through the gap in the curtains.
"Because if we let him we have to let the furball and I draw the line at sharing a bed with that." He murmured as he felt a weight and a sharp pain in his leg. It appeared he had forgotten to shut both doors.

Covet felt the bed shift and lifted her head to be greeted by two bright red eyes and a big puppy grin. Scim seemed to be quite proud of himself for finally managing to get into their room. Reaching out she scratched him behind his ears and looked back at Mecca.
"Meepo will not mind. I don't think he fancies sharing a bed with either of you," she smirked and laid her head back down. "Maybe we should... just for a little while. To get some decent sleep," she smiled and closed her eyes.

"Uh, o.k." Mecca said reluctantly, shooing the grim to the bottom of the bed where he curled up into a ball and lay his head down.
Mecca rested his head against Covet and closed his eyes, soon drifting off after his night of interrupted sleep.

After allowing Mecca some time to get some decent sleep, Covet had been reluctant to wake him, but knew he would be upset if she let him sleep through his appointment. After waking him and seeing him off, she set herself to cleaning the house. Humming softly to herself she moved from room to room, Meepo on her shoulder and Scimitar following close on her heels. Mecca had been gone for some time when there was a knock on the door. Closing Scim off in the shop so he wouldn't frighten who ever was on the other side she went to answer it and blinked in surprise.
Yaku flashed Covet a charming smile as she opened the door and tipped his hat a little to her.
"Good morning Covet," he smiled and slipped a hand into his pocket.
Covet fought the urge to step back away from him and held onto the doorknob as she returned his smile.
"Good morning Yaku. Um... Mecca is not here," she said without really thinking, though she honestly could only think that he was here to see him, especially after his inquiry the night before.
Yaku maintained his charming smile, though inwardly he smirked. It was honestly almost too easy.
"I'm not here to see your red friend," he smiled and watched her closely. "I'm here to see you. I was wondering if you might like to go for a walk with me along the beach?" he asked, feigning complete innocence.
Covet glanced over her shoulder as Scim started to whine at the basement door, then looked back to Yaku.
"Um... No thank you Yaku. I'm honored, but I really shouldn't. I have a lot of cleaning to do today," she said and managed to take a small step backwards.
Yaku arched a brow at her refusal and reached up to casually lean his hand against the doorframe.
"But you've been working so hard. Surely you deserve a small break? All I'm asking for a little stroll. Surely you could spare some time for that?"
Covet studied him for a moment. She knew he was dangerous. Knew it deep down. But honestly, what harm could come from a little walk? So she would get out twice this day, that wasn't such a big deal. Besides, they would most likely be back before Mecca returned. She looked out at the gorgeous day then back at the black and red shu.
"Just for a few minutes then," she finally replied and turned to grab her shawl off of the hook by the door.
"Excellent," he smiled and offered her his arm as they started down the steps together.

Mecca returned from his appointment with a smile and a very interesting artifact.
"I'm back." He called closing the shop door behind him and being greeted by Scim's muffled barks.
Frowning he placed the artifact on the desk and opened the door. Scim came bouding out and pawed at his legs barking and wagging his tail.
"Stroking him Mecca looked around. Covet must have gone to the market or something. He thought as he crossed to his chair and sat down to look at his new aquisition.
