On the way to Tom's house, they stopped at a small park nearby so Woof could run off a little energy before meeting Baci for the first time. Rayne thought that it felt really good to stretch her own legs as she and Tom walked at a more sedate pace behind Woof. The driver was going to meet them back at the house and they would just walk the few blocks home with Woof. Tom looked down at her and smiled, looking completely relaxed.
"What would you like for dinner darling? I can get us some takeaway or I can make something for us. Whichever you prefer."
Rayne thought for a moment then shrugged. "I'll leave it up to you. The main thing I want is a shower."
Tom nodded before leaning down to give her a kiss. "Alright, I'll put together a little something while you get cleaned up, then we'll settle in with a movie or something. How does that sound? Just a night to relax."
Rayne let her head fall over to rest on Tom's bicep as they walked. "That sounds lovely, actually." Something occurred to her that she had wanted to ask. "Are Ben and Anna in town do you know? I was hoping to see them while I was here."
Tom smiled and nodded. "They are, actually. I'll call to ask if they'd want to have dinner one night this week."
"Wonderful!"
By the time they reached Tom's house, Woof was slowing down, his flight catching up to him again. Rayne smiled, thinking that he would be asleep in minutes once they got inside unless the excitement of another dog was just too much. Tom helped the driver get the bags and Woof's crate inside before Rayne attempted to take the dog in, knowing that it would be too much excitement for him with everything going on.
The driver came back out and nodded to Rayne with a "Good day, miss" as Tom stuck his head out the front door and beckoned her to come in. She took a deep breath and walked beside Woof into Tom's house, suddenly a little apprehensive. Once they were inside, Tom took the lead from Rayne's hand and started to unhook it from Woof's collar. Rayne put out a hand to stop his motion.
"Don't you think maybe we should leave him on the leash for a bit? You know, until he gets used to everything?"
Tom shrugged. "Well, we could, but I think he might get better acquainted with everything if we just let him explore. Baci is around somewhere." He nodded in the direction of the kitchen. "I've put his crate beside hers. I thought that would also help them to get used to each other."
Rayne finally nodded and Tom let Woof loose to explore as he grabbed her bags from beside the door. "Let me show you where the bedroom and bath are, alright darling?"
