Re: Topher & Melody
Well, Melody wasn't an artist for nothing. If there was no Christmas wrapping paper, then she would make some with what she had! Though she had to try and find new supplies sometime soon in the not too distant future.
She sat next to Topher on the examination bed, offering him a smile, her eyes widening a little when she took the larger present from him. She delicately unwrapped it, both wanting to take it slow and fighting the urge to just tear the wrapping off as fast as she could. And when she had finally unwrapped it, she gasped audibly.
She turned, so she could look at Topher, eyes still resembling saucers a little. "Topher, it's absolutely perfect!" she exclaimed happily, holding the small easily tightly in her hands. She was about to say something more, but Topher quite effectively shut her up. Her heart skipped a beat, then decided to somersault in her chest before going at least a hundred miles an hour...but she didn't pull back, she didn't tense up, and after a moment, she closed her eyes, even leaning in a little, one of her hands sneaking over to reach for Topher's as she let her lips linger on his.
