Happy Birthday, Alex.
This time, Mel had not encouraged the making of too much of a fuss. She suspected Alex wouldn't like anything bordering on over-the-top. He hadn't told anyone, after all. They'd just happened to see it in some paperwork.

But it seemed only right to do something. So she'd baked an apple pie and some cheesey quiches. And she let the scent waft through the building.

They said that a way to a man's heart was through his stomach and for Alex this held quite true. He had been curled up in the Temple watching tv when the smell of freshly baked apples reached his nose. Ten to one Mel was baking and that meant really good food.

Alex followed his nose and shifted to human right outside the kitchen. "Something smells heavenly," he said as he walked into the kitchen.

	"Really?" Alex was surprised. "I didn't think anyone knew it was my birthday." He smiled and gave Mel a big hug and a kiss to her cheek. "Thank you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Cheated. It was in the documentation. Didn't know what you'd like, so I got something I think'll be good." She handed him her calendar. "I want you to fill in what you'd like fixed every Saturday for the next month," she says, grinning. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Alex grinned. Mel was absolutely the best. Ever. "I will. This is the best." He put the calendar on the table and gave her a kiss. On the mouth. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	And Mel...well...returned it. With un-Mel-like enthusiasm. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Alex blinked. Quite surprised that she was returning the kiss. Not that he was going to complain. Not at all. He was going to enjoy this as long as it lasted. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	When they break for air, Mel looks down just a little, face a deep burgundy but not looking unhappy. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Alex had a big smile on his face and his cheeks may have been a little redder than normal. Now what did he say? What was the proper protocol for after kissing dialogue? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Ahem. Yes, well, you will note there is pie. Let me get us some glasses of milk." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	tooth_n_claw 2010-09-18 05:37 pm UTC (link)
	"You just said my all time favorite word," Alex said with a large grin. "It smells wonderful. I can get the milk if you want to get slices of pie out." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Good plan." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	tooth_n_claw 2010-09-18 11:44 pm UTC (link)
	For a moment Alex wondered if it was too soon to kiss her again (because it had been really nice) and then got the glasses. He got the milk from the fridge and filled the glasses. "Did you tell the others?" he asked. He didn't want a fuss. He never did. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	tooth_n_claw 2010-09-19 01:04 am UTC (link)
	"Thank you," he said. "I don't want a fuss." He smiled. "And I'd rather spend it with just you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Mel smiled a little. "Aw, that's sweet." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	tooth_n_claw 2010-09-21 04:40 am UTC (link)
	Alex smiled. "Thank you for all of this. It means a lot. You're the best." He sat down and the two of them ate the wonderful pie together. (Reply to this)(Parent)
