Albel had just finished setting the table when Fate came in to the apartment. Hearing his name, Albel turned to look at his lover. The surprised look on Fate's face made Albel smirk.

"Happy birthday, Fate," Albel said. He was proud of the fact the he had received the initial reaction he had wanted. Everything was ready; the food was on the table waiting, the promise ring was in its box in Albel's pocket, and Fate's gift was waiting in the master bathroom. He moved across the room to his younger lover, the smirk on his face unfading as he lifted his oven-mitt clad hand to brush the hair out of Fate's eyes. Soft lips brushed over Fate's in a surprisingly gentle kiss as he properly greeted the blunette.

Turning to the table, the Turk pulled a seat out from the table. As he moved, the tight shirt stretched across his muscles, showing off his washboard abs and powerful arms. "Have a seat," he instructed and went to put away the oven mitt, hoping Fate wouldn't notice the band-aids covering his fingers.

The kiss made Fate smile contentedly until Albel moved away. The blunette's eyes instantly fixated on that ripling torso... those strong arms... He really loved that shirt

Albel let out a soft chuckle as noticed the shiver. He loved how receptive Fate was when it came to the looks Albel gave him. Fate had undoubtedly figured out Albel's plans for the evening. As talkative as his lover was, words were not always necessary for communication between them now. Over the past (nearly) three years, Fate, far too vigilant for his own good, had learned to read his closed off boyfriend like an open book. However, when the blunette notice the band-aids, Albel silently cursed the powers of observation his lover possessed.

"I had some trouble with a stray cat earlier today," he said as he sat down at the table. "The little monster did a number on me."

Well, that explained that. Cats and Albel didn't seem to ever get along all that. Fate thought that perhaps it was the similarity in personality. Albel's arrogance and the arrogance of a cat seemed like they would just clash rather horrible. After all, both were utterly convinced the world was their bitch, and most of the time neither seemed to know better. Both were absolutely, girlishly prissy about their appearances (though Fate, rather fond of living, would never tell that to Albel), and both had sharp claws and liked to curl up in the warmest spot they could find

"Why yes in fact I did." Albel said choosing to ignore the laugh from Fate.
He was happy with the knowledge that his plan was working. No need for his lover to get all his gifts at once any ways. I just hope the bathroom is all in one piece when this is over.
"I hope you don't mind me keeping you to myself this evening."

"Well, where else am I going to go?" Fate answered, eyes sparkling with happiness.

Looking at the food, Fate really hoped that it was edible. It might look pretty on the outside, but Fate knew from experience that there was always the chance he'd be woken up with food poisoning in the middle of the night. "Shall we eat then?" he asked as his stomach growled loudly. "I'm starving!"

Albel smiled again at his lover. Albel just hoped that he got the food right this time. Doubt started to fill his mind for a moment before he pushed it away.
What ever happened would no point in wondering.

Albel took a small bite from his fruit bowl knowing that at the very least he could make that right.
