Needless to say that when Gold had started cooking, Pongo had sat attentively close by. Not so close as to be underfoot but ready to pounce on anything that dropped.

He was as intelligent as a human but still a dog. Sue him.

It'd taken a while for Archie to fall asleep the night before, reading on the Kindle until no amount of bumping up the font size could make the words legible. At least when he'd finally dropped off, his demons had decided to give him the night off.

The smell of food had gotten his stomach rumbling, forcing him back to wakefulness. He could really use some coffee right about now, but he'd settle for knowing what that smell was. (The hotel's breakfast was pretty decent but didn't smell this good.)

Gold wasn't in his bed which meant he'd beaten Archie awake. The former cricket put on his glasses and headed into the main living area. "Good morning."
