Hearing the lock turn in the door, Rhys opened it tentatively and the sight that greeted him was something that under normal circumstances would have made him grin from ear to ear. Seeing their diminutive neighbor with Barbie on the ropes was a delightful perk. He looked drunk and beat up and Rhy sincerely hoped this would help him learn a damn lesson.

"My sincere apologies, Miss Sandow, my brother has terrible sense after a few drinks." Rhys was boiling under the surface, embarrassed and mildly aggravated that Barbie was this big of an idiot. Rhys crossed the room in a few long strides and cuffed Barbie around the back of his neck with one forceful hand. "I think you owe, Miss Sandow an apology." Rhys intoned as he held his brother put. "And I'll be by to fix up the place tomorrow." He assured their neighbor knowing Barbie would rather eat sand.
