The first thing he did when Trowa let him inside was, giving the hall a cursory glance for anything out of the ordinary. He takes note of the shiny floorboards and the obvious fond use of carpets in the living area. There's a large bookcase in the far corner of the living-room, filled with books and DVDs. Considering the amount of space the bookcase took, the living-room was rather small, added along the stretched-out couch, the salon table and the TV. He wondered how Trowa entertained his visitors in such a tiny space that looked more like his bedroom than a living-room.
"Surprised?" Trowa asked offhandedly as he walked past him in the threshold and headed into the room across the one Quatre had been observing, completely barefooted.
"Yes. Just a little." He quickly toed off his own wet shoes to follow the host.
Trowa had his back turned to him, once Quatre entered what turned out to be the bathroom, one arm stretched out slightly to reach the cabinet above his head. He realized yet again the obvious height difference between Trowa and him. Damn tall people. Quatre probably wouldn't be able to reach the cabinet without going on his toes first.
Trowa took out a towel from the cabinet above and turned. "Are you disappointed at what you see?"
"Not really. Oh. Thanks." He accepted the towel pushed into his direction and began rubbing his face, his neck and then his hair with it.
"What were you expecting?"
"I don't know. Traces of dirt? Plants? Feng Shui? Wait, why are you asking me this anyway?" Quatre stopped drying himself.
Trowa merely smiled, his expression looked oddly amused under the 40-watt bathroom light.
"No reason."

Changed the ending a bit, because it turned wackier than I'd intended. ^^;;
