prompt 27: fling

“…Oh.
You’re still here.”

“Mm.
You sound disappointed! Don’t tell me you expected me to leave.”

I thought you’d be off doing—well. Adventuring…things.
All…you know. Diligent. ‘Tis near noon.”

back over here, it’s alright. ‘S nice and I’m bloody well
staying until you throw me out.”

“No
chance of that, old girl! Ah, last night…”

“Was
excellent. I’m keeping you. Uh. Can I keep you?
Because if I find out you’ve got a girlfriend hidden away I rescind
that offer.”

scars here. I trust one day you’ll tell me your suitably heroic

For now—was that your stomach?”

“I

us with breakfast.”

“Uuuuugghh.
Alright, alright, let me up or I’m never going to leave this
bed—where’d my bloody socks go? Oh, here they are.”

“Ah,
I’m afraid I left marks, you may wish to—that’s my
shirt, you know!”

Not
anymore

She
was still laughing when they went to breakfast.
