MCA #10 - Evening

[light_a_spark]

There was a lack of overenthusiastic kittens to greet Roy as he pushed the door to Aly's apartment open. There was a definite lack of kittens and Aly in the living room too.

"Did you leave without saying goodbye?" Roy asked, following the sounds coming from the bedroom.

((For the Aly.))

"Now you're just projecting," he murmured. He slipped his arm around her as he leaned his head down to return the kiss.

"Maybe," she agreed easily, focusing more on the kissing. "Don't let the island blow up."

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

"Do you find me that hopeless?" he asked, teasing her and kissing her cheek instead.

[tricksy-spy.livejournal.com]

"Yes," she smirked, pulling back to turn to the packing.

He went to the bed and made Dee scoot aside so he could plop down beside Aly's bag, making it hard for her to not pay him attention while she was working. "Are you going to show me what outfits I'll be missing out on?"

[tricksy-spy.livejournal.com]

"Depends," Aly teased.

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

"On what?" he asked, glancing briefly up at her before he pulled the side of the bag towards him to see inside.

[tricksy-spy.livejournal.com]

"If you'd rather see them than the special ones," she said, looking amused.

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

He raised an eyebrow as his attention was quickly focussed on her again and he absently pulled Dee back from climbing inside the bag. "There's special ones?"

[tricksy-spy.livejournal.com]

"Could be," Aly smirked, reaching out to rub Dee's ears as she mewed in frustration.

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

"Mmmmmm," he leaned his head on his arm and tugged Dee closer so she'd settle down beside him. "What dress will you be wearing?"

[tricksy-spy.livejournal.com]

"The blue one," Aly said, throwing him a look.

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

"I like that one," he mused, just watching her now.

[tricksy-spy.livejournal.com]

Aly leaned forward over the bed, not touching him. "Thought you liked all of them."

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

"I do," he agreed easily, scratching behind Dee's ear. "Or maybe there's something they all have in common."

[tricksy-spy.livejournal.com]

"The material?" she teased. "Or the length?"

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

"The air around it," he deadpanned.

[tricksy-spy.livejournal.com]

"So you like my perfume?"

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

"Yes, that must be it," he said with a nod.

[tricksy-spy.livejournal.com]

"Funny how I'm not wearing any," she teased.

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

"Huh. Must be something else then," he said lightly, but he seemed to be watching her intently.

[tricksy-spy.livejournal.com]

"Wonder if you can figure it out," Aly said, holding his eyes for a moment then pulling away to go to her closet.

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

He hummed softly, thoughtful now as his eye followed her, almost as if he was trying to figure something out.

[tricksy-spy.livejournal.com]

Aly grinned to herself but pretended she didn't notice his look and she sorted through clothes, trying to find a dress.

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

He could make some suggestions, but he stayed right where he was and his curiosity finally won out over his hesitation. He wasn't sure if she'd want to discuss this, so he'd start with something innocent so he could back off if she seemed uncomfortable. "What did you wear to your wedding?"
