[Finishes yet another book.]




...now what?

Comments

Pause for reflection, basking in the warm radiance of a satisfying read?

And then be really fucking glad you have the time free to finish books.

[Lucie jumps, dropping the book, and looking up at the stranger in utter confusion.]

O-oh.

I...didn't think anyone heard me.

[heart-masseuse.livejournal.com]

Sorry. Didn't mean to scare you.

Don't mind me and my irrational jealousy.

[piles-of-pages.livejournal.com]

[Irrational jealousy. If Lucie couldn't read books? She'd cry. A lot. So gently, quietly, she leans over and picks her book up, handing it over. She says nothing. But he can have it.]

[heart-masseuse.livejournal.com]

[He looks at the book but doesn't move to take it.] Please don't tempt me. The issue is lack of time more than anything else and I hate leaving a book unfinished.

But. Thanks for the offer.

[piles-of-pages.livejournal.com]

[She stands and tucks the book into the crook of his arm.] Well...just in case.

I'm Lucie, by the way. And it was a good book so...if opportunity arises...

[heart-masseuse.livejournal.com]

I-- well, thanks. Maybe I'll get the chance.

Was a good book? It still is. [He smiles slightly. IS HELL FREEZING OVER.] Stuart.

[sam-k-roth.livejournal.com]

Get another?

You! *hugs!* Are we saying that they're already married?

[piles-of-pages.livejournal.com]

I could but I'm still living in the past book. And I'm not ready to move on.

[Her head snaps up and it's only then when she realized who was speaking to her. She grins and runs at him, wrapping her arms around him and burying her face in the crook of his neck.]

Hi.

Sure! Married. And feel free to poke on PM. Work can kill me sometimes.

[sam-k-roth.livejournal.com]

Read me your favorite part, baby?

[He scoops her up and goes right for the couch to curl up with her. Yeah, Sam is loving the honeymoon phase.]

Hi.

No problemo! I completely understand!

[piles-of-pages.livejournal.com]

I'll put you to sleep if I do that!

[Lucie nuzzles against him, kissing at his neck and running a hand through his hair. She's still not over how they actually tied the knot.]

Guess what.

We're married.

[sam-k-roth.livejournal.com]

Guess what else?

[He kisses her neck.]

I have the most beautiful wife on the planet.

[piles-of-pages.livejournal.com]

[She blushes deeply, shaking her head and kissing his nose.]

You liar. You could've landed a far more beautiful wife.

But I'm eternally grateful that you picked me.
