"Did I ever tell you how much I adore you?"
The night was quite cold, what with Autumn in full swing, but the night sky was clear and pretty. The two men slow danced to the melodic jazz floating from the gramophone, Ricky pressed his head into Tinsley's shoulder contentedly with a quiet smile.
"Yes dear, but I don't think I've ever heard you say it to Obi" Tinsley hummed playfully into Ricky's ear.
"You and that bloody cat" Ricky sighed.
"I'll have you know 'that bloody cat' is my pride and joy, I think you're just jealous-"
Ricky cut Tinsley off swiftly by dipping him into a passionate kiss.
"How's that for pride and joy?" The smaller man smirked.
"Oh hush" the flushed Detective remarked with a laugh.
Ricky smiled wistfully, "Do you remember that time you came to dinner?"
"Yeah, I vividly remember thinking I was gonna get eaten alive by your brother", Tinsley quipped, "And now to think, I'm going to their wedding in April."
"At least take me to dinner first" Ricky joked with a smirk.
"Oh, because that went so well last time" the Detective rolled his eyes
"God, don't remind me."
"I still can't believe we got away with that" the taller man mused.
"Of course we got away with it", he replied, flashing Tinsley a winning smile, "I'm Ricky Goldsworth."
More hijinks were sure to ensue, but until then it was simply,
Love, in progress.
