[Delia is the kitchen, humming to herself as she moves about]

[making coffee]

[she learned from the diaster with Mel, yes she did.]

[a little smug smile]

That will be an interesting day, Indy.

[henry-jones-jr.livejournal.com]

Dubiously, "mmhmm..."

Another kiss. "Other than the obvious reasons like gorgeous lover in pretty lingerie, I am intrigued by your coffee."

[eldorne-girl.livejournal.com]

Not trying to steal my secret, are you?

[henry-jones-jr.livejournal.com]

Indy's invisible halo slips a little, and he bites his lip.

"Possibly. Because I just don't get it. From disaster to the best damn coffee I've ever tasted. Better than Mike's, mine, Bar's and definitely better than Alanna's."

A slight chuckle. "I told you about her attempt at a filterless brew the other day, right?"

[eldorne-girl.livejournal.com]

[a little, wicked laugh]

Yes, you did. And maybe I'm just talented.

[beat]

I've got something on her.

[henry-jones-jr.livejournal.com]

Indy's fingers pause in mid-stroke. "You do? And you're going to tell me with no bribery or teasing, of course."

[eldorne-girl.livejournal.com]

I was thinking more along the lines of your thanks will be lovely enough.

[henry-jones-jr.livejournal.com]

"Well, in that case... lay it on me," he states brightly. "Reward negotiable, dependent on the relative juiciness of the gossip."

[eldorne-girl.livejournal.com]

[she walks her fingers up his chest]

Alanna has boyfriend.

[henry-jones-jr.livejournal.com]

Indy narrows one eye. "Please God tell me it's Adam Young."

He sends up a little prayer to whoever makes these things work out so perfectly.

[eldorne-girl.livejournal.com]

But of course. Thom was so helpful.

[henry-jones-jr.livejournal.com]

Indy screws up his face victoriously.

"Hah! I knew it!"

"She's been denying it for over a month now. Ooooh, she is in so much trouble for lying to me."

He gives her a very grateful kiss. "You, my dear, have earnt yourself a big reward. Thank you."

[eldorne-girl.livejournal.com]

[she laughs]

Oh, good.

[henry-jones-jr.livejournal.com]

Indy is beside himself with happiness right now. Not quite bouncy Lilly glee, but pretty damn ecstatic. It's sad really...

"Heh. I think I just had an idea for a Say True article, or maybe a letter to the Advice Column," he says with a snicker.

[eldorne-girl.livejournal.com]

[she's grinning at his glee]

Oh, yes?

[henry-jones-jr.livejournal.com]

"Yesss..." he replies with a sinister edge.

"It's a bit rough at the moment though. Perhaps we should put both our heads together on it."

"...in London."

[eldorne-girl.livejournal.com]

Oooh, we are actually going?

[henry-jones-jr.livejournal.com]

Indy looks a little hurt. "Of course we are. I said we would. I've just got to check with Alanna that it's okay with Adam to let us through."

"I think the back end of this week will work nicely. No weddings going on then that I know of, or that I'm invited to at least."

[eldorne-girl.livejournal.com]

[Delia...looks shifty]

Oh. Adam.

[maaaybe he's forgiven her for slapping him?]

[henry-jones-jr.livejournal.com]

"Hmmm?"

Indy lifts his hand to her face, running the back of his fingertips down her cheek.

"Problem with Alanna's beau?"

[eldorne-girl.livejournal.com]

I...may have possibly slapped him?

[henry-jones-jr.livejournal.com]

"Huh. What for? When?"

His voice lowers into a growl. "Did he make a pass at you?"

[eldorne-girl.livejournal.com]

[she kisses him]

Oh, no. We were having a disagrement, is all.

[henry-jones-jr.livejournal.com]

"What about, love?" he inquires, at least temporarily placated by her soft lips.

[eldorne-girl.livejournal.com]

Me and Alanna and our...relationship. I tease, she blushes. He took offence.
