I could probably warm you up, you know.

Oh really~?

I guess that's only fair, considering how long I spent as a bed warmer last weekend.

Not that I'm complaining, of course~

[a rustling sound]

Get over here under the blanket.

[sounds of movement]

You could always never speak of that again, you know, Henry.

No, come here-here.

[more rustling as Henry scoots over and tries to get them both situated under the blanket]

I could, I suppose, but what would be the fun in that~?

--there. Much better. Comfy?

I don't see the fun in it now.

Yes, I am.

Although I can't feel any of out here's weather anyway~

Mostly I'm just amused by the bed warmer thing. Between that and providing food and sex, I think I have the best job ever~

...nothing? Really?

It's a job, hm? Maybe I should consider paying you one of these days.

Nothing.

How do you think I dealt with winter in London?

Maybe. Although I can't imagine what you could pay me that would be better than what I'm getting out of this already~

You gonna open that bottle, or just hold onto it a while longer?

...you mean it gets cold in London? I thought it just rained a lot?

I'm sure I'll think of something.

Actually, Henry, I thought I would open it and then not let you have any.

[two glasses are brought into existence; the sound of bottle being opened, and pouring]

You're kidding, right?

Uh huh. I'll believe it when I see it. ♥

Hey, that's--

[a pause, and then a chuckle]

Of course I am. I'm not a complete airhead you know~

I'll take that as a challenge~

Well, you know.

There's just times when you really could have fooled me.

And Americans seem to know less about England than the English do America~

...I wouldn't say no to being spoiled every once in a while~ ♥

Hey! Just because you don't keep me around for my rapier wit and sparkling conversation doesn't mean I'm a complete moron....

[a pause as he takes a sip of wine]

...that's true. Being ignorant assholes is kind of our national pasttime.

That reminds me. I owe you a favor still, don't I?

[a chuckle]

Of course not, Henry.

That's alright. You should see the way they treat some of the tourists, there.

Not that I mind too much, really, but~

[a pause and a grin]

Oh don't worry about that. I've got something in mind for that particular favor already~

...at least they're not French?

[snickering]

[pause for a drink]

And what would that be?

[a pause, another sip of wine to hide the blush]

Uh...I'll...tell you later....

Later?

Why not tell me now?

Cause...you're gonna laugh.

[a pause, as Crowley considers this]

Maybe.

But that's not a good enough reason.

[a long pause, then finally Henry mumbles something that sounds like "feather" into his glass as he takes another drink~]

[and Crowley, infinitely amused, moves his hand to push Henry's glass back down]

What was that, Henry?

[a brief pause to collect himself...which doesn't work, because he still looks embarrassed as all hell~]

I said...I'd like a feather...if that's okay. If it's not that's fine.

[a pause, and some laughter]

[a sigh]

See? I told you you'd laugh.

[a poke aimed at Crowley's ribs]

[another short laugh as Crowley moves to dodge the attack, and nearly spills his wine]

I only laughed because you were so embarrassed.

If all you want is a feather, then you can have one.

Yeah, well...it's not everyday you go around asking someone for a body part, is it?

[a sheepish laugh]

You sure you don't want an ear? Offer's still good you know~

...thanks. [a smile]

It's just a feather though.

And I'll still pass. I like your ears where they are.

You're welcome~

[a smile, and then a long pause where Henry just sits sipping his wine, curled up under the blanket with Crowley and looking up at the stars]

[after a long moment:]

Do you...do you suppose it's over now?

[after a second]

What's over?

....

...them.

I mean, with your powers back, they can't hurt you, so....

...

I hadn't thought about it.

But you're right, you know.

I don't think they can do anything to either of us.

[a sigh]

If they can't hurt you, then they can't blackmail me anymore....

[a contented sort of sound as he snuggles a little closer~]

[a small sound from the glass being set down, as Crowley puts both arms around Henry and cue fireworks]

[a similar sound as Henry sets aside his own glass and cuddles closer~]

[a long silence, while he just smiles and watches, and then a soft sigh]

I could definitely get used to this being spoiled thing~

Give it a day or two.

I'll have something even nicer~

[Henry moves his head a bit, from where he's been resting on Crowley, to look up at the demon and grin]

Sneaky bastard~ ♥

You should wait until you see it~

[a raised eyebrow and a smile]

What have you been up to--?

If I told you, it wouldn't be a surprise, now would it?

[a sly grin spreads across Henry's face]

You're going to make me--

[a kiss]

--torture you for information--

[and another]

--aren't you?

Well I'm--

certainly not going to--

argue, if you try.

[so much grinning]

[more grinning]

We have ways of making you talk~

[a rustling sound as the blanket is pulled over the two of them...which is probably for the best >>; ]

[the pop of fireworks above~]
