“ He deserves it. For deliberately keeping us apart for so long, let’s make him as uncomfortable as humanely possible. ” His own grin at the idea only spurred him on more. Whatever ideas Seb had, Chey was definitely in favour of exaggerating them ten-fold. Anything to make Jim’s life shit for making her miss having Seb in her life for nearly two years.
To hear that he too had a sound collection of favours as well was a great relief to her. Though they were dealing with criminals, promises and favours were often well kept. “ By the sounds of it, yeah they do. But good. There isn’t so much to worry about then if we both have outs for each other. But let’s keep it quiet, I’ll always protect you and me before any of the rest of them. ”
Gently, she gave him another nuzzle in response to his kiss, relaxed even with talk of her problems. “ Mm, it might. I won’t lie, and I could probably use your help. But please don’t worry now, I’m safe, ” she murmured, fingertips tracing his jawline affectionately.
Talk of their wedding was enough to keep her distracted from those worrying threats, especially as he had just caught her out. Certainly, she had shown every picture and video that was available, obvious by her suddenly guilty, but amused look. “ It wasn’t grotesque, just…. unfortunate. Badly timed. But yes, accidentally. I was flicking through the album and then the page of the bad photos came up, but don’t worry. Not all of mine are flattering either. ” It was a once in a lifetime thing, right? They had just made sure to enjoy themselves( and thankfully it gave some downright hilarious memories to look back on ).
“ Yeah, it will be, ” Chey mused gently, having not really thought about it like that. Her father’s missing presence from the wedding hadn’t really bothered her, it had been her grandparent’s. They had always been good to her, had helped her more than she would ever truly like to admit. “ Don’t worry love, my grandma especially seems very approving of you, despite your more unflattering photos. ” Now she was just teasing him again, laughing quietly. “ Probably. But they already like you, I can tell. Besides, it’s not like we can cancel a wedding or anything, the deed is done. ”
“Though, of course, not to the point of him actually wanting to kill us later over it.” He winked, not terribly worried about it, considering. “He’s like an angry cat. We’ll just lay off when he gets the look of a feline about to hiss and swipe at you. But not a moment before.”
He snorted at her statement, despite how genuine it was. “Like we’d ever NOT protect each other at any opportunity, love. Which reminds me, I should clue you in on a few new safehouses I’ve been compiling. But that’s for tomorrow. Definiteeeely tomorrow.”
Those reminders for the future were in a way also related to the government troubles, so he didn’t say more about the subject, electing instead to smile at the trace to his jaw before turning his head, properly kissing her for a long moment. When he pulled away, his lips were lightly pursed in amusement.
“Well, I suppose as long as you embarrassed the both of us, I’ll live with it.” He grinned. “If anything, I suppose they’re an indicator of our fun personalities and frankly, the fact that we’re peak millennials.” He let out a light laugh at that, but then nodded with a smile.
“Good. It’s not every day I get to meet people that close to you.” He didn’t say that like a bad thing though, completely understanding that there simply....weren’t many out there. “It’d be unfortunate if they didn’t like me.” Though then his eyes narrowed playfully and he threw up his hands. “Nah, no, actually, cancelled. We’re not married anymore. You never said ‘no take-backs’.I rescind my ‘I do’. So there.” He stuck his tongue out at her.
