Beneath the cloak, there's a huge fucking grin on his face. He runs a little checklist in his mind: get locks for the door, fix those broken windows, get clean linens. Hell, get cleaning supplies and fuck if he knows why that sounds like it might be fun for a change, but anything beside living in this cloak is going to be fun for a change.
What he's most looking forward to are quiet evenings here with Beth and Junior... and nights with Beth again when the little one's asleep. Yeah, that'll be nice: it's been a long time since he hasn't had to sleep with one eye open, listening for stray sounds that mean cover the fuck up and be quiet.
Yeah. He's looking forward to nights just like that. This place isn't Venus and it's not the House of Arch, but they'll make it theirs. As they step outside and shut the door behind them, Junior's eyes close hard and he decides what the hell, no one can see him anyway: he leans over and kisses both Beths invisibly, then falls into step next to Slim for the walk back to the city.
He's pretty sure Hero will be interested in hearing about what they found in that closet.
