Who: Megan Jones and Justin Finch-Fletchley
Where: Justin's flat
When: Monday afternoon
What: Plotting to make over Justin's place
Rating: PG

Megan was beyond excited at her new project. She'd been surprised to see Justin give in so quickly, but then she supposed that she had been dropping hints for months now. Practically since he'd gotten the place. Oh he'd let her do some touches, colour schemes, but until now he hadn't actually let her decorate the whole place. The moment that he'd agreed, however, Megan had been on the phone to his mother. She knew that Marianne would be overjoyed that Megan was finally getting to tackle the project, considering what they both thought of the state of his place. Before going to meet Justin for lunch, Megan met briefly with his mother, getting some ideas from her as well as her charge card so they could get this project under way.

Exiting Selfridges on Oxford Street a few hours later, Megan quickly made her way along the pavement to where she'd agreed to meet Geoffrey. Getting into the car, she settled into the back seat before she typed out a message to Justin:

J - on my way; be there in 15
- M

Sending, Megan placed her things next to her as Geoffrey navigated his way through early afternoon London traffic. Pulling out some of the samples, she reconsidered the colours trying to picture Justin's bedsit in her head. Finally pulling up in front of Justin's building, Megan thanked her driver and grabbed her things. She exited the car and walked quickly to the front of the building, before hurrying inside. She walked up the flights of stairs until she reached his door on the uppermost floor. Using her newly attained key, Megan pushed the door open and dragged her things inside.

"Justin, help me with this."

"Thank you," Justin said of not ending up too dark in the flat. He smiled at her as she reached down to get a book. "It's fine if you end up taking longer than a week. You have a key. You can come and go as you please. I know you will want to go over every detail." He reached for a book and left it to rest on the arm of his sofa. "What sort of blue are you thinking?"

"I might. I just want to get the painting done earlier, that should be the easier bit." Megan conceded, as she uncrossed her legs and rested her book on her knees. Taking another sip from her glass she started flipping the pages, scanning the pictures as she went. "I'm not sure yet." Megan said in response to his question. "Something bright and colourful to make this room look lighter, less bland."

	"I can see that. It will be the most work and have the biggest immediate impact" Justin said. He gulped slightly as he watched Megan cross her legs before turning his head to hide his blush. "Well I'm sure it will look great. You are very talented." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"Exactly, and then it won't interrupt you with your schoolwork." Megan added before taking another sip from her glass. She flipped a few more pages, trying to see if there was anything that caught her eyes. At Justin's next words, she glanced over and smiled. "Thanks, Justin. That's really sweet of you to say." Then tossing the book aside she bent over to retrieve more items, a few colour samples she'd selected. Of course, she'd already been planning blue that afternoon, so the booklets were geared around that colour choice, and she leaned back against the sofa. "How are these shades?" She mussed, holding it up, before picking up another one. "Or these? I think the more blue will look better, but the more green influenced are also quite nice, soothing. Maybe something in between?" Megan said as she took another sip and glanced toward the walls. It wasn't going to be that easy. "Maybe smurf blue."

"It's true."

Justin took the color samples from Megan and spend a long time looking them over. It seemed really important to her and so he took the color selection seriously. "Not smurf blue..." Justin murmured as he looked between the cards deciding on a color. He got a big grin on his face as he had made a decision. "Galactic blue" he said. "I like that one. What do you think?"

As Justin considered the colours, Megan observed him. He wasn't making fun of her, and hadn't pushed the pallets away, which was definitely a good sign that he was taking this, and her, seriously. Leaning toward him, she rested her hand on his leg as he made his decision and glanced at the colours again.

"I like it." Megan said, nodding in approval. "Just a slight hint of green and light enough on the walls that it'll not be too overbearing." Megan smiled at him and leaned in to brush her lips against his cheek. "Cheers, darling, it means a lot to me that you're letting me do this."

	"I'm glad you approve" Justin smiled, swallowing hard at the feel of her hand on his thigh. Why did she have to do that? It always short circuited his brain. Not that he would have asked her to move her hand for anything in the world. "Well, I wouldn't trust anyone else to touch my flat so thank you for taking on the project."

"You do have good taste, darling, when you actually think about things for more than a moment or two." Megan admitted, patting his leg lightly as she gave him another smile. "Anyway, glad that's settled, it'll give me a base from which to work with, and then I can see about coming back tomorrow maybe to get started on the painting." Pausing, Megan smiled at him. "You will help, won't you?"

	"Thanks, I think" Justin replied not sure if it was a complement. "Yes, I will help you. You shouldn't have to do it all by yourself." (Reply to this) (Parent)
