    Summary

    Once his foot landed on the pavement of the sidewalk, he looked around and breathed it all in. Something inside himself settled at the familiar sights of Soho and quickly lifted his mood. He took a step and began walking towards his bookshop, and before he knew it, he was standing right in front of the double doors. The bell above the door announced his arrival and made him smile. His smile broadened when he saw everything looked exactly as he left it; it didn't even look like anything was sold. He stepped further in and just took in the whole place, breathing in the comforting smell of books, dust, leather, and glue. This place was home away from home; he could almost cry. He could have if the bell above the doors behind him didn't announce another presence. He whipped around to see a dark, lanky figure standing frozen in front of the doors that closed behind him. His red hair long and quiffed hung in loose curls on one side of his face, had sharp cheekbones, and wore round dark sunglasses. Aziraphale found himself wondering what the beautiful stranger's eyes looked like. Something then began to tickle the back of his mind. He didn't get long to examine it when the man's voice croaked, "You're back..."

    "Pardon?"
