Not even a second after closing the door to her apartment she heard rapid footsteps heading in her direction. Turning only to get bombarded with Slipstream jumping towards her for a hug, Strika quickly grabbed onto her so she wouldn't fall.
"Welcome home." Slipstream greeted while wrapping her legs around Strikas' waist and resting her arms on her shoulders.
With an amused smile she asked, "Are you going to do this every time I come home?"
"Maybe." there was a playful look in her eyes, then she noticed the new tattoo Strika was sporting, "You got a new one?"
"Yeah." Strika answered already knowing what Slipstream meant, "This one hurt just a bit though. Do you like it?"
"Very much, it suits you." she answered while resting her head against Stirkas'.
"Glad you do."
Both closed their eyes enjoying the moment.
