Hex followed Val through the halls of his home, up the dark polished stairs, and into the bedroom. Once there he took initiative and pulled Val to a stop, touching him gently. For all that he'd confessed his dominant tendencies he was careful and patient.
"What do you like, Val?" he asked softly as he touched him and studied him.

"Look it's fine. It was just a bit of fun, right? I'm sure I'll see you again sometime," he said, though he didn't believe that, not really. People, as a rule, wanted one of two things. A commitment, or a one night shag. No one was willing to settle for anything between that.
Rinsing off the last of the soap, he turned off the taps and grabbed a towel.
"There's scones on the kitchen counter, help yourself. Don't worry about locking the door, I can do it from the bedroom," he said, waving Hex off and headed back into the bedroom to finish drying off and change the sheets.

"I'll see you again," he said, dressed but for his shoes. "Some day."

I had a good night, you had a good night- It was brilliant. Don't tell me you'll be back later though, and don't act like we're mates now, 'cause obviously we're not. It's stupid. It's a waste of breath. Just go to 'work', or whatever. It was nice meeting you, alright?"
Rolling his eyes, he gave up on changing the sheets and melodramatically flopped onto the bed.
