A surprise anniversary present for Peter...

Left on his pillow, along with a handwritten, glitter gel pen note...


"One year ago today, I met a confused young man who couldn't remember falling asleep. I was intrigued and a little bit 'wtf' but I stuck around, got to know him.

It's been a wild ride, and I know you don't remember a lot, but I'm glad you're still here. ♥ Des"

He also added a date, "3-9-10" but mun forgot to write that on it...

[isn't expecting that, and he looks up from his plate in surprise. He's silent for a moment, his head tilting to the side]

I always liked the French Toast. [smiles softly]

[spongetastic.livejournal.com]

I can make French Toast for you sometime, if you wanted. [smiles, and goes back to eating for a while. Like the act is making him remember random stuff]

I liked maple syrup. It tasted nice when I licked it out of your mouth. [and he says it in that weird matter-of-fact Doll way]

[notaballad.livejournal.com]

Really? I would love that. French Toast is my favorite, but I suck at making it.

[blushes a little, shifting a bit in his seat because Peter said it matter-of-factly but the feelings it evokes in Desmond are anything but] Yeah? I remember that...

[spongetastic.livejournal.com]

You remember more than me.

[notaballad.livejournal.com]

Well, you were a Doll longer...

[spongetastic.livejournal.com]

It didn't feel that long. [and sets about finishing his meal quietly]

[notaballad.livejournal.com]

[watches Peter eat for a few moments and then quietly asks the question that's been on his mind for a while] Why'd you get involved with the Dollhouse?

[spongetastic.livejournal.com]

[swallows the last of his food and puts his fork down]

It's personal.

[notaballad.livejournal.com]

[winces a little and nods]

I understand. Sorry, I didn't mean to pry...

[spongetastic.livejournal.com]

I think now it was my destiny to be there.

[notaballad.livejournal.com]

True...you wouldn't have met me.

[spongetastic.livejournal.com]

[blushes at that and smiles sheepishly] I guess that's true.

[grins and reaches out for Peter's hand, lacing their fingers together]

[spongetastic.livejournal.com]

[glances around before sneaking a kiss]

[notaballad.livejournal.com]

[likes that a lot and grins as he kisses back]

[spongetastic.livejournal.com]

Maybe more later..?

[notaballad.livejournal.com]

[grins and nods eagerly] Yeah, definitely. [he finishes eating and then sips his drink] Movie now?

[spongetastic.livejournal.com]

If you like.

[notaballad.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I definitely would. [grins and stands up, carrying his garbage over to the trash can]
