"We live in progressive times, Charlie." She says, all grin as she slips in just under his arm the moment the door is open.
Chloe-- unlike Nate-- doesn't treat every minute like she's scaling the side of a temple or breaking and entering. This time? Well, maneuvering herself between the crack in the door and the space Charlie's inhabiting might as well be a vault lined with lasers judging by how quickly she slides past without so much as brushing against the fabric of his coat.
"I was under the impression most women like to buy dinner for their partners."
Compared to the unnaturally bright hall, the steely gray and violet interior is a sharp contrast. And yes, she could have gone for something more expensive, more dramatic, but her focus is what's outside those balcony doors (the doors she has to fight not to press herself up against, and instead just unlatches them to let in sounds from the busy streets below) and she can save the more expensive rooms for places that aren't nearly as fascinating as Paris.
