This week's ABH is rated TV-14. Hope you all enjoy!
Without expecting to be, Oliver and you have been in Europe for over three
months. Your simple weekend assignment became much more complicated than you
planned for. Your happiness at being home is a bit subdued by the large
cobwebs that have started to claim the interior of Oliver's lighthouse.
He is intent on clearing up the signs of disuse before he even unpacks and
you are intent on helping him. You both change out of your travel clothes
and into tee shirts and jeans. Oliver leaves to start cleaning the kitchen
and you stay put deciding to begin with the bedroom.
You strip down the bedding and take it down to the washing machine. When you
return, you open a window to air out the room. You finish dusting the
furniture and begin to vacuum. The loud clanging of pans from the kitchen
carries even over the sound of the machine. You turn it off and head into
Oliver's terrain.
"You okay? What was that ba." You never finish your sentence. Before you
stands Oliver wearing yellow rubber gloves and an apron proclaiming "Just
put down the chocolate and nobody gets hurt."
A smirk spreads across your face. Oliver rolls his eyes. "Don't even start."
"Who's starting? I'm finished. With the bedroom at least. I'm going to get
the vacuum and get the living room going."
"I'll come help as soon as I'm done here."
You dust, vacuum and open the windows in the living room as well. When
Oliver finally joins you, you're cleaning out the dresser's drawers. He
moves to the closet and begins taking down boxes to sort through. In your
explorations, you find a black binder filled with pages of plastic baseball
card protectors. Only in this binder, the pages are full of photo ID's for
over a hundred of Oliver's many aliases. You flip a couple of pages in and
smile. These are names he used before your time together. You peruse the
many pictures, some of them sporting Oliver in disguise. "Oh my God!"
Oliver bangs his head on a shelf in the closet. "What? Did you hurt
yourself?"
"No. Look at this perm you had! And that mustache with it." He looks
confused. You hold up the binder so that he can see what you're looking at.
"William Moxley the third?"
"Oh yes. That one."
"Don't tell me. The rest of the outfit was some Travolta disco suit
knock-off with gold chains?"
"It was 1983. The French Riviera. There was this lovely Persian woman who
was..."
"Okay, that's enough. I don't want to hear anymore of this anecdote."
"Jealous."
"With reason," you exchange smiles. You go back to your separate tasks.
Moments later, you hear Oliver softly laughing from the closet. "What's the
funny?"
"This." He holds up a large picture of you, dressed as Boy George, next to a
poster of Boy George.
"Hey, it was Halloween and I was only 13! What would be really funny is if
you find a big picture of YOU dressed as Boy George."
"Oh yes, and what about this?" He pulls out a gold sequined bikini top.
You run over to him and try to take it from his hands. "That's none of your
business." He holds it over your head.
"You don't get it back till I hear the story." You make a jump for it. He
catches you around the waist with one arm and pulls you to him for a kiss.
"Okay, I took a belly dancing class in College. I was very bad at it and I
looked even worse in the costume."
"Do you think it would still fit?"
You grin at him. "Why?"
"Because, I'd like to see it on you." He puts his forehead to yours, looking
right into your eyes. In a growly voice that promises much to come he says,
"You won't have to wear it for long." After another long convincing kiss,
you sigh and allow yourself to be led into the bedroom.
Have a Wonderful Monday!

win a woman's heart is by making her laugh?"
