Sort it out [Tim/Abby]

[abigailsciuto]

[Despite Tim's lack of enthusiasm, Abby grabs her keys and heads out the door. The drive isn't long, and before long, she's parking and heading up to the door. She knocks a few times and bounces on the balls of her feet, waiting as patiently as she can after just having downed a caf pow.]

[Tim pads to his apartment door soon after he hears knocking. By the pattern rapped on the door it's either Shen Wong's delivery or Abby, and since he hasn't ordered Chinese food takeout for home in awhile, it's got to be Abby. That was quick! He opens the door.]

Hey Abs. C'mon in. [he grins and jokes] Please ignore the mess! I opened one box and it just... spread.

[She's seen him in casual attire before, but there's something a little funny about it. Abby tries to keep from snickering, stepping inside and raising both eyebrows at the mess.]

One box, huh? It wasn't one of those refrigerator boxes, was it?

[The barely restrained look she gave him as she passed by made him briefly paranoid.] What? [He looked down at his.... Oh...]

The heater's stuck in the 'on' position. And no, it wasn't a refrigerator box, it was several... storage... boxes. [he made a face as he followed her into his apartment]

[Just a few seconds in the apartment and she wouldn't have needed the explanation.] You know it's June now, right, Timmy? [Thankfully her skirt and tank top are pretty breathable.]

How many is several? Or is it like one of those Mary Poppins boxes that you can reach your whole arm into? [She's teasing and trying to keep a straight face all at once.]

Alright, so where do we start? [She's sort of forgetting that whole 'I don't need you to help' thing from before.]
