Jensen shrugged off the apology. "You know I'm a nights guy. Come on in."
He held the door open for Gio and turned to make proper introductions. "Giovanni, this is Calvin."
It felt great to have friends in his life again. For his part, at least, the two men were the closest he had to friends anyway.
He offered Giovanni the same lemonade he and Calvin had been sharing while the two greeted each other. The set to Giovanni's tone had not been lost on him, however. Jensen had a feeling that whatever the request was, Giovanni might want to pose it in private.
"There's a library in another room, Giovanni, if you care to join me. And Calvin, if you'd excuse us a moment?"
He pat the older man on the shoulder as he passed behind the sofa and hoped Calvin was reassured by Jensen's demeanor. The last thing he wanted was for Calvin to leave.
There was something different about Giovanni that wasn't explained by attire alone. He seemed to hold himself different, but then again, one could say the same of Jensen.
