"Tell me about Sunday night."
"I was home-"
Soft rustling of silken sheets on velvet skin. Breaths evening out. Smells of vanilla and honey and lust. Lingering.
"-in bed. Sick."
Golden hair lazily sprawled over a bare chest. Fingertips drawing patterns. Hazel brown deeply lost in crystal blue. Sparkling.
"Is there anybody who can corroborate that?"
The bliss of a perfect moment loosely filling the air. A gentle hand brushing at a lost strand. Love cherished and savored. Esteemed.
"No, I was alone."
Steady heartbeats whispering noiseless promises. Thoughts wandering. Comfortable silence about to lull in exhausted bodies. "Alex?"
"What is your probable cause for my arrest warrant?"
A familiar tune of tenderness brushing confided lips . A soft purr the only answer. Quiet notes blending in with their surrounding. Adding up.
"Let’s hold your questions until the end."
Reposeful moments passing by in contemplative silence. Mind pondering. Blue crystals eventually incited to flicker curiosity. "- about what Paxton said -" Hesitation.
"You’re single.."
A hint of astonishment washing over delicate features. An unexpected smile following. The clearly evident amusement stunning. Irritating.
"Yes."
Satin sheets being shuffled aside without hurry. A slender body rising. Bafflement written all over hazelnut eyes. "Ok, stop that, Alex."
"A boyfriend?"
A hand warily enveloping the creamy skin of a wrist. "Where are going?" Again amusement, a smirk even. "Told you, start that again and -"
"Are you interrogating me for murder -"
Realization taking it’s time to hit at full force. Eyes widening. Arms quickly finding their way around hips. Rolling them over.
"- or are you signing me up for a dating service?"
A light giggle filling the room, increasing only at the scolding look directed at its origin. "That’s so not funny." A spark deep inside the sapphire blue. "See my point?"
So, yeah, that was it - for now?! *smirks* Depends.. ;)
