Not every night can be spent at restaurants or the theatre, especially when Sybil understands the frustrations of living on a budget now. This doesn't mean she wants to spend any less time with Henri, so she plans a night in, after consulting with Katie and a few of the girls at work as to just what she should do. They spoke of plans and ideas, and there was some giggling on the part of the other girls when Sybil mentioned her concerns with being alone in her home with a suitor. Eventually she was won over to the idea, trusting both in Henri's honour and the knowledge that this wouldn't cause a scandal here in Darrow.

Now she has everything ready; wine and beer in the refrigerator, a few movies that were suggested and an electric popcorn machine she hopes she can master. The only thing missing is her date himself. She pours herself a glass of the crisp white, breathing in the fruitiness of it before taking a sip and settling in with a book to wait.

Admittedly, Combeferre had been a bit puzzled himself by what might be intended in Sybil’s offer. Though an evening spent alone with a young lady did not hold quite the same level of scandal in his own circles as they surely did in Sybil’s, certain… assumptions could be made. Assumptions that a woman like her surely would not appreciate. It had made him blush terribly, just sitting alone in his flat, to even consider the possibility for a moment. Sybil was a very different sort of woman.

But time spent with Sybil had always been comfortable, and he was certainly looking forward to another evening spent together, awkward assumptions or no awkward assumptions. Standing at her door with a bottle of wine and a single flower, he knocked on the door.
