walks past Håkon's house with a few bags in hand as he starts back to his own house. He glances up at the porch and jumps a little when he sees him on the porch. Ari frowns a little and blushes before walking-

looks up from the cocoa swirling entrancingly around in the cup when he hears the sound of light steps on the gravel of his driveway. He blinks, as if making sure he's not seeing things as he quickly _

steps onto the porch and avoids looking at him as he moves to the bench and takes a seat, fidgeting a little and setting his shopping bags down on the porch beside him.

lets out a low approving hum, and takes another sip of the cocoa. "I've more inside.. I can go get y'some if y'want." He casts a curious glance at the bags, but doesn't ask for now.

chuckles quietly and sits back down beside him, picking up his cup again to sip from. The cold had taken the warmth from it already.
