Alice loved going out on dates with Grog but if you’d asked her - her favorite nights were the ones they stayed in at his place. Eating dinner, either that he’d made or they’d ordered in, and just getting to curl up on the couch and watch a movie together. Especially when she had time (like tonight) to change into one of his t-shirts beforehand. She liked dressing up and getting to be girly, okay she LOVED doing those things, but with her boyfriend she liked getting to slip into nothing but one of his t-shirts, which were long enough for her to wear as dresses anyway, and just relax against him. She smiled up at him as she made herself comfortable on the couch, sitting practically in his lap as they tried to decide on a movie to watch, and pulled the blanket up over her legs.

“So...what are you in the mood for tonight?” That was definitely a loaded question and she knew it but that was part of why she’d asked it.

***

Grog smirked at her and pulled her close and kissed her, grinning. “Food is almost here. And I was thinking we’d watch your favorite movie.” he nodded and stroked a hand over her back and kissed her again, softly.
“If you like, you can sit on my lap?”

***

Alice made a soft humming sound into that soft kiss as she returned it, sliding closer to him. “After the foods here I’ll take you up on that. I don’t want to get all comfortable and then have to move so you can answer the door.” She gave him a soft smile.

“Are you ever going to show me your favorite movie?” She asked, putting her arm over his stomach loosely.

***

“Alright. Makes sense.” he grinned at her “I could just carry you, but okay.” he chuckled. She was smart and funny, and warm and he liked that.

“And I like kissing you, a lot.” he nodded. “Sure. We can do that tonight, if you want.” he smiled warmly again.

***

Alice gave him a mischievous smile. “Why don’t we save the carrying part for after the movie?” She asked, stretching up enough that she could give him a kiss, letting her lips linger against his. She loved just getting to be with him, enjoy the gentle caring side of him he showed her. And it was always fun when he picked her up and carried her to bed.

***

“That makes sense.” he chuckled and kissed her again. His hands stroked her legs gently, and smiled warmly at her.

“I don’t know what I would do without you.”

***

Alice shivered as his hands stroked her legs, face heating up at the smile he gave her. “Keep that up and I’m going to have no choice but to go ahead and sit in your lap and you know it,” she said her tone obviously teasing as she laid her head against his chest.

Her hand slid under his shirt, resting softly just above his waistband. “That’s how I feel about you.”

***

Grog smiled softly and kissed her gently. “Oh, really? And what would make me want to stop, then?” He smirked as he held her close, snuggling her warmly. He did love this little woman.

He bent his head to let his lips touch her ear. “I love you.”

Three softly spoken words, that meant the whole world to him.

***

Alice kissed him back, cuddling up closer to him as her hand gently stroked over his skin, a soft contented smile on her face as she relaxed. No matter what they were doing - right here with Grog was the only place she ever wanted to be.

She grinned at those three words as she slid into his lap. “I love you too. Even if you don’t play fair sometimes.” She kissed him again, wrapping her other arm around his neck as she made herself comfortable.

***

She slid into his lap and he laughed and kissed her. “Me? I always play fair.” He snuggled her close and groped her butt lightly. “But you have to know the rules.” he chuckled and snuggled her more, inhaling her scent and closing his eyes.

“This? This is perfect.”

***

“And just what are the rules?” Alice asked, teasing gently as she relaxed against him. Dinner would be there soon, and he’d have to answer the door but right now? He was sitting right there and could just hold her.

“My favorite place to be actually.” She whispered, eyes closing as she breathed in his scent.

***

“Always love, always kiss, always snuggle.’ he kissed her ear, and snuggled her close. This was perfect, and he could enjoy this. “Love you, Alice.”

He snuggled her and smiled, dreaming of a day when they could do this all the time. “

***

Alice tilted her head so that she could kiss along his neck. “Love you too. And I think I can live with those rules….”
