Excellent! I needed a break from my AWDT piece and find this!!!
Yippy for more Alphard!

learning all he could about money management
Interesting, so this is how he got his start -excellent
Everyone wanted to see the heir of the Blacks with the girl he would be marrying.
that can't be good at all...
The youngest brother, Altair, didn't say a word. He knew that he was quite low in the pecking order
poor kid
On that December 23rd, however, the hours crawled.
I hate that!
One minute, he’d decide it was all madness, and he wouldn't go through with it after all. The next minute, he knew he would
haven't we all gone through that ??
he wouldn't make too much of a fool of himself.
he has his pride
Blushing because he’d been caught staring
lol busted
With a tightness in his chest, Alphard realized that his time with Albert was drawing to a close.
NO!!! love how everything was set up for this day
But, if he bought a piece of art, then he would have to come back with the money, wouldn't he?
smart lad
I'll take both
lol sounds like me
That meant he'd have to return a third time to the studio. The thought made him grin happily.
too cute
Alphard panicked. He had no idea what a banker’s draft was and, worse than that, he had no house to which the paintings could be delivered.
the poor dear
He had just enough time to get to the Leaky Cauldron and Floo back to what would be a dreary existence.
LMAO poor dear
at least he'd have something from Albert forever, to remind him of the best couple of hours he'd ever had.
awwwwwwwww perfect
I do portraits occasionally and I'd like to do one of you."
WooHoo excellent!
Maybe seven sessions of one hour each?"Seventy hours with Albert!
is that right? or do I need sleep lol
hoping that the intervening months wouldn’t go too slowly.
lol he's hooked
Going down the stairs with a big grin on his face, Alphard turned back and saw that Albert was still at the door, watching him
perfect
Every time anyone said how lovely she was, another face came to his mind.
excellent and so sweet
One day less until February.
poor dear has a long wait

Excellent and I can't wait to read more
I love your Alphard :o)

lol I'm surprised I caught it lol

you are an excellent beta no matter what :o)

[minnow_53]

Aww, thank you! *hugs* I never pick up on anything with numbers, sadly.

^_^xx

[snakes_heart]

I do math in my head! And yet did this incredible boo-boo.

[snakes_heart]

She is the best!

[snakes_heart]

No, this was MY bad!

[snakes_heart]

Duh! And I'm a numbers person - scary, isn't it? I think that Alphard's eagerness in spending A LOT of time with Albert seeped through my brain. Corrected to seven, but I must say he's pouting. :-}

He is SO hooked - has been since the first time he saw Albert, really. And Albert is slowly falling, too.

Glad you liked it. And thanks for the new and shiny icons, see?

[andrea__88]

Like I said I am surprised I caught it, my brain was slightly fried from the AWDT challenge

I love these two, can't wait to see how Alphard reacts the next meeting and how Albert falls for him

No problem enjoyed making them :o)
