Reception

[guppy_sandhu]

Guppy's house. What little furniture there is has been mostly moved upstairs, apart from the threadbare sofa, bean bag and a few newly mended garden chairs.

The whole area is decorated with ribbons and flowers.

Comments

Sam laughs against her skin. "Thank you."

He's still a little bit amazed at having a girl this beautiful on his arm.

"I don't feel sexy. I hate suits. But, thank you."

"It's the noose around your neck. And the jacket. Might be better without them."

Re: Drinks

[necessary_child]

"It's a tie, not a noose. Much less killy."

Beat. "...Usually."

He kisses her neck again. "Feel free to remove them for me, if you want."

Re: Drinks

"But then you'd have to carry them," she tells him, serenely.

Re: Drinks

[necessary_child]

"Mean," he tells her sternly, but ruins the effect by briefly kissing her.

"I feel certain I could cope with that, anyway."

Re: Drinks

[mycursedface]

"You're very hardy, it's true."

Re: Drinks

[necessary_child]

He gives her a look that's full of mischief.

"So I'm often told."

Re: Drinks

[mycursedface]

She's not looking at him - back against his chest, head resting against his shoulder - but, she knows him.

"...I'm sure you mean some kind of...thing, there, and I'm just ignoring it."

Re: Drinks

[necessary_child]

Sam smirks.

"You're very mean to ignore me, Medusa Gorgos."

...As he nuzzles her neck. Yep, he's really feeling the hate.

Re: Drinks

[mycursedface]

"Medha," she corrects, closing her eyes. "Last name subject to debate."

Re: Drinks

[necessary_child]

"Only matters when other people can hear us," he murmurs in her ear.

"And they're not going to, not right now."

Re: Drinks

[mycursedface]

"Useful," she comments, and then smiles.

"I feel a bit better now."

Re: Drinks

[necessary_child]

"Good." Sam smiles too.

"Love you, Beautiful."

Re: Drinks

[mycursedface]

"Love you, too."
