Messages of Love

[doctor_kavanagh]

He got home early that day, eager to share his news with his lovers. Unfortunately neither of them were back yet. They'd only moved into the new, larger quarters that McGregor had suggested to David a couple of weeks ago and the place still seemed eerily quiet and impersonal. But at least now they had an fully-fitted little kitchen. Much better

Nick walked in quietly just after Cal had placed the last one. He walked in setting his gun on the side before spying the kitchen. "Ummm...Cal?" He called out poking the green liquid with the end of his finger.

[doctor_kavanagh]

He's just about managed to get the worst of it off him, though his hair still has specks of white and he's a little green around the edges. He's almost made it to the shower when Nick came in. Following the voice, he walks over to him and sees him staring in horror at the kitchen.

"Oh right...I was going to clean that." He says, sheepishly, flushing slightly. "Really, it's your fault. You should be here when I cook." He adds with an uncertain grin.

[majorlorne]

Nick chuckled softly and started pulling things into the sink. "I'll remember that." He replied taking his jacket off to clean up in his t shirt. "Why were you trying to cook unsupervised?" He asked amused

[doctor_kavanagh]

He starts helping to pile things into the sink, stopping momentarily when he passes Nick to kiss him gently on his newly exposed neck. "I was trying to do something nice for you and David." He huffs in an exaggerated hurtful voice. "Last time I attempt that."

[majorlorne]

Nick smiled softly arching his neck, "It was a nice thought Cal." He whispered with a smile. "He replied as he started to wash them, working his way through them. He let them drain on the side before cleaning up the side. "Tell you what do you want me to help you cook something?" He asked we can make it for David"

[doctor_kavanagh]

Nick seemed to get everything under control with ease. He tries to help, but even he can see he's just in the way. Eventually, he just stands away and lets the marine handle it.

He smiles and nods at the suggestion. "Yeah, well either that or we all starve. How about you start and I'll go clean up." He says, softly kissing Nick again before heading to the shower.

[majorlorne]

"But then I have to cook without my glamorous assistant." He complained afer him with a soft smile.

[doctor_kavanagh]

He chuckles at the comment and hurries through the shower, getting himself clean as quickly as possible and changing into casual clothes before going back to Nick. His wet hair tied loosely with a large band. "One glamourous assistant as requested. So what are we making?"

[majorlorne]

Nick smiled softly "How about almost chicken roasted and some potatoes. With my mums chocolate cake for desert?"

[doctor_kavanagh]

He looks surprised for a moment before smiling. "Ok, that's slightly more complex than the 'pasta' I was making. I guess I should have expected it from you." He says fondly. "Show-off. What do you need me to do?" He pauses and smiles secretively at himself before adding. "And keep in mind that you're talking to the new Director of City Systems and Resources. I demand the proper respect."

[majorlorne]

Nick looked at him in surprise." The what?" He asked his eyes widening.

[doctor_kavanagh]

He laughs giddily. "Well don't look so shocked. McGregor's going on maternity leave and she needs someone to cover for her. Of course I'm by far the most qualified person to do it." He shakes his head and looks at Nick almost shyly, dropping the act. "I was stunned too. I don't quite understand why she'd ask me. I thought I'd be the last person she'd want to hand off too." He bites his lip. "I was going to wait until David was here too, so you have to act all surprised again, ok?"

[majorlorne]

Nick laughed and moved forward cupping Cal's face and pulling him down for a deep kiss. "Well done'" He whispered pleased. "You're the perfect person she can trust to look after everything whilst she's on maternity leave.

[doctor_kavanagh]

He eagerly returns the kiss and keeps on holding Nick when it ends. Finally feeling confident that he would be able to handle it, rather than just acting like so. He buries his face in the soft angle of his neck and holds him tight, not caring that his glasses as get squished against his face. "Thanks darling." He murmurs against his skin, not willing to let go.

[majorlorne]

Nick smiled rubbing his back lovingly holding onto him tight. "I'm so proud of you." He whispered. "You've done really well." He added his embrace tight and secure.

[doctor_kavanagh]

He stays there, in the embrace, for several long minutes. Not needing to say anything, just basking in his obvious affection.

Eventually he pulls away, giving Nick a parting kiss. "Come on then, let's get this show on the road."
