Title: Interference
Author: mercycroft41
Fandom: Wodehouse
Pairing: Jeeves/Wooster
Summary: Possibly slightly angsty. A tinge of kinkiness? Alcohol consumption. Incredibly explicit dirty talk. Horseradish sauce & Bergamot soap.

‘Why would you need courage to telephone me, Sir?’ I ask. Then, quite suddenly afraid of his answer, I continue to talk. ‘All is in order here. Mr. Chuffnell called yesterday to enquire as to the date of your return. I gave him a forecast of three days, though it seems now it was inaccurate.’

‘I’ve been wondering,’ he says, rather dreamily. ‘Wondering.’ I have seldom heard him so contemplative. So strange.

‘Perhaps we should continue this conversation when you return, Sir. It may be more appropriately conducted face-to-face-’

‘-No, Jeeves. No. I couldn’t do it face-to-face. I’ve thought about it. I’ve tried. I’ve almost... once or twice. But I think I could broach the subject now, what? The thing is, you see, that-’

‘-Do you wish me to acquire some of the Bergamot soap, Sir, that you appreciated during our recent hotel stay in Harrogate? Or would you prefer your usual brand?’

‘Really, Jeeves, I’d like you to listen to me for just a moment-’

Bertie phones Jeeves and is feeling confessional, the build up and release is fantastic and believable. I wish that we could see what happens when they meet face to face again but it's still a great read as is.
