Getting Ready for the Evening

[a_phale]

Upon their return from the trip to the mainland, Aziraphale and Wilson enjoyed a little of quiet time to unwind before the evening's festivities. Just a bit before their dinner reservations, they pulled the tuxes out of the closet

About an hour before they were due for dinner, Wilson had pried himself off the couch and out of Aziraphale's comfortable embrace to go shower and shave. Normally this process did not take an hour but with the bad arm, he liked to give himself a bit of extra time to get pulled together

Aziraphale had remained on the couch while Wilson washed up, closing his eyes and listening to the sounds of his lover moving about. It amazed him how used he'd gotten to that, and much he missed it when he was alone.

When the young doctor called out, he smiled and rose, walking into the bedroom and stopping to steal a quick kiss.

"Do you need any help, love?" he asked softly, giving the bandages a quick glance to make certain they looked comfortable.

Wilson's bandages were distinctly lighter than he usually wore but would still offer some protection from any shock or jarring.

"I think I'm good but thank you for the offer." The offer earned the angel a slightly longer kiss before Wilson stepped back to look for his pants.

"I'll probably need your help with the bow tie, love."

"Erm..."

Aziraphale slipped a little box out of his pocket. "Let me know if you want some help with these, too." He set the box on the bed next to Wilson's shirt, and then tried to slip off toward the bathroom.

Inside the box was a shirt studs and matching cuff links.
