Office Hour

[She's restless, on the internet, and periodically rises to pace. Muttering can be heard--words like Nancy Drew, and Encyclopedia Brown. The longer she waits, the more annoyed she gets.]

[Methos says something under his breath that doesn't sound terribly complimentary.] Charming. Now *I* want to beat them up. [He sighs and rubs the back of her neck.] I came by to give you your present. I don't know if you want to think about that now, though.

Present for what? [She leans back a bit to look at him.] I can't think of a better time.

[Methos reaches into his pocket.] I believe the requirements were big, princess-cut, and diamond. [He puts the box in her hand. It contains these (http://rhiannon.dreamhost.com/lj/fh/diamondearrings.jpg).]

Oh. My God. Adam...[She stares at them, barely breathing.] They're...gorgeous. I really didn't...I was just giving Parker ammo...[She looks into his eyes, all worry gone from her face for the moment.] Thank you.

Never, ever give Parker amno. That's like carrying coals to Newcastle. [He smiles softly at her.] I like giving you things. You enjoy them. I enjoy watching you enjoy them.

I love you, Adam. [She tips her chin up, kissing him softly.] You've made everything better by just being here, you know that?

I'm glad. I love you, too. [He kisses her back, and holds her.]

[After an unbelievably long time of just...being held, she pulls back. I need to get back to work, Adam. [She begins to take her earrings out, to replace them with his gift.] I'll call you to snatch Jack if needs be.

((and I'm off to work. When I get back...Vala assault!))
