"Was the hug not welcome enough?" Maggie asks, and kisses Stefan on the cheek before stepping aside to let him past. "I think you'd better come in, now that you're here."

Luxury hotel suites are par for the course for Maggie. Stefan has seen her in her own, admittedly nice, but cluttered and comfortable, home. The room is huge, with a living room and bedroom and hot tub in it. She didn't request a small kitchen this time solely because she knew she wouldn't feel like cooking after long days at the conference.

Maggie heads straight for the couch, settling down in one corner and folding her legs under her.
