Gwen and Bobby
Gwen and Bobby sat in the kitchen eating breakfast, while waiting for Mordred and Julie.
"So what you gonna get done?" Gwen asked.
"Tongue, most likely. Or maybe eyebrow," Bobby mused.
"As a girl, get the tongue done," Gwen advised. "I speak very highly of them."
"Please, no. What are you gonna do?"
"Hmmm, a lady never tells."
Mordred
"Oh?"
Mordred looked at Gwen.
"I think I can ask...later."
He kissed her, then looked at Bobby.
"It doesn't hurt that much really. Just for a couple of days...and the reaction's worth it."
He grinned.
"I'm going to get a few more in my ears...and maybe something else, I haven't decided yet."
Gwen and BObby
Gwen kissed him back, then took a sip of her coffee.
"Nipples," Gwen supplied. "But yeah, ears is good too."
Bobby grinned and patted his nipple. "Yeah, they're pretty good. And yeah, I think tongue is the way to go... uh... not in the kissing way. Well, yes in the kissing way... you know what I mean."
Julie
Julie walked into the kitchen, pushing her stroller with B'Elanna and Tom inside.
"Hey," she said. "And how are we all this morning?"
Gwen and Bobby
"I'm good," Bobby grinned. "Ready to get pierced?"
Gwen grinned. "How mean does that sound? Oh get pierced, Bobby!"
"You too."
She turned to kiss Mordred. "I think I will be going elsewhere, instead of the piercing parlour. Mine is... delicate."
Mordred
Mordred's eyebrows rose.
"That sounds...interesting."
He kissed her on the mouth.
"Well, we can all go into the city together. Or I can just 'port us all."
Julie
"Either is fine with me," Julie replied. "And I'm totally ready to get pierced. I'm gonna get my bellybutton done. And maybe another pair in my ears."
Gwen and BObby
"So we port? I'm not actually sure how much walking I'm going to be able to do. My legs are still kinda weak." Gwen was lying, it was her piercing that would prevent much walking without pain, but they didn't have to know that.
Bobby nodded. "Sounds good."
Mordred
"We going now?" Mordred asked looking around.
"And which parlour are we going to?"
Julie
"Don't look at me," Julie replied. "You guys have lived here longer than me."
She fiddled with her eyebrow, wondering if she should get that done too.
BObby and Gwen
Bobby nodded.
"There's one in the mall. It's a good one."
Gwen wrinkled her nose. "Well, I've booked myself in to see the doctor, so... shall we away?"
Mordred
"Right, I'll just get the refs..."
Mordred put his hand to the side of Bobby's head for a moment, then did the same to Gwen.
"And we're gone."
They teleported to an alley out the back of the mall.
"It's easier then trying to explain we aren't there to kill them," Mordred said briefly, then took Gwen to the doctor's.
"I'll see you later, love."
Julie
Julie grinned, then turned to Bobby and inclined her head.
"Wanna lead us there?" she asked.
Bobby and Gwen
Bobby nodded.
"Yep, this way."
He started off and soon reached the parlour.
Gwen nodded. "See you."
She bit her lip and went into the doctors.
Mordred
Mordred stared after her for a moment, then 'ported.
He jogged slightly to catch up with the others and caught them at the entrance.
"Right. So let's get this done."
He grinned as they entered.
Julie
Julie stepped into the parlour, pushing the stroller.
"Can I help you?" asked the shop assistant.
"I hope so," Julie grinned. "We wanna get some piercings done. I want a belly button, a second earring in each of my ears... and maybe an eyebrow ring."
BObby
Bobby grinned. "Tongue piercing for me," he said to one of the women there. She nodded and showed him into a room.
"See y'all later."
Mordred
"Two nipple rings, and I wanted to get one done in this ear, and two in the other," Mordred told the girl on the counter.
"You're not on any medication?" She asked pleasantly, looking at his arm in a cast.
"Nah, and I got a note from my doctor as well." Mordred put the note from the Beast on the table in front of her.
"If you'd just come through here please..."
Mordred followed her.
Bobby and Gwen
An hour and a bit later, everyone was finished, and Bobby was leading them to the doctors to go get Gwen.
Gwen sat awkwardly in her chair.
Ow.
But worth it.
Mordred
Mordred rubbed his chest slightly.
Ok, that had hurt rather a lot.
He had the three earrings as plain silver studs, though he had some other ones in mind for when he got these ones out.
And two silver hoops through his nipples.
He smiled when he saw Gwen.
"You alright, love?"
Bobby and Gwen
Gwen slowly got to her feet.
Ok, owwie owwie owwie!
She gave a small smile. "Yeah, fine."
The doctor handed her a bag of the antibiotics, cleaners, everything she'd need.
"Thanks. So... uh... can we go somewhere where I can lie down?"
"Thome en?" Bobby asked around his numb tongue. "I cont alk popely." (Home then? I can't talk properly.)
Mordred
Mordred chuckled slightly.
"Oh, I remember that feeling."
He looked at Julie.
"It's a pain in the arse...well, mouth if you want to be technical."
Julie
Julie nodded.
"Yeah. But totally worth it," she replied, looking at Gwen. "Be careful, Mordred. Tongue rings and... rings down south don't mix too well."
Bobby and Gwen
Gwen smiled innocently.
"Don't know what you're talking about. I just came for a check up."
She stood, ignoring the shooting pain.
"How did everyone's piercing's go?"
"Ood!" Bobby said. (Good.) "'All we?" (Shall we?)
Mordred
"Yeah, let's."
When they got out of the doctor's office and somewhere relatively private, Mordred 'ported them home.
"Here we are then."
Julie
"Yep," Julie grinned. "Man, I'm really glad I didn't get a nipple done. My boobs would be sore as right now. My bellybutton is sore enough as it is."
Gwen and Bobby
Gwen looked at Mordred.
"How are your nipples?" she asked, a slow smile spreading on her face. She took a step closer to him. "Ok, ow."
Bobby shook his head. "I hink I ill gooo and et omething to dink." (I think I will go and get something to drink.)
Mordred
"They're fine."
Mordred looked at her in concern.
"You alright?"
Gwen
Gwen nodded.
"Uh, just a little sore. Could we go lie down?"
Mordred
"Ok, love."
Mordred took her arm and looked around.
"See you people later."
He 'ported to their room and helped her onto the bed.
"Better?"
Gwen
"Thank you - OW!"
Gwen winced as she sat on the bed. She opened the bag and pulled out the antibiotics and took two.
"Can I see your piercings?" she asked.
Mordred
Mordred pulled his shirt over his head.
"I got three earrings and my nipples done...next time I might get that labrette one. You know, through the bottom part of the lip?"
Gwen
Gwen nodded.
"How nice. Something new for me to play with."
She grinned cheekily.
"Doesn't hurt, does it?"
Mordred
"They...ache a bit."
Mordred looked at her, then frowned slightly.
"Hurt when they went in."
Gwen
"Mmm, I hear ya."
Gwen sighed and tried lying down.
"Oh sweet mother of..."
She took a deep breath.
"Yeah, I... the doctors... not much fun. But it will probably be fun later."
Mordred
"What....exactly did you get done?" Mordred asked.
Gwen
Gwen smiled.
"Got myself a bit of a naughty piercing, didn't I?"
Mordred
MOrdred lifted his eyebrow.
"That sounds like fun...but painful at the moment."
Gwen
Gwen nodded.
"It's going to be sore for a bit... however, Dr McCoy could probably do something about that? Who knows. But it will be fun when it's better."
She grinned cheekily at Mordred.
Mordred
"Well..."
Mordred grinned back.
"As long as you don't expect me to do something similair."
Gwen
Gwen giggled.
"Nah, I just thought it might be a nice surprise for you. Which is why I went to the doctors to get it done. Well, that and to reduce the risk of... you know, losing feeling in there."
She patted the space next to her.
"You can sit down... just don't jolt the bed too much."
Mordred
"Ok, love. I'll be careful."
Mordred sat down slowly on the bed next to her.
Gwen
Gwen smiled.
"The anti biotics are working... it all feels kinda numb."
She paused.
"My piercing is gonna look really ugly for awhile."
Mordred
"Well, it's probably going to be quite sore for a while," Mordred pointed out.
"Just remember to make sure it doesn't get infected...then it would be really bad."
Gwen
"The doctor gave me a lot of stuff, but it should be ok. I heal pretty fast."
Gwen reached for his hand.
"Do we still have the demon chair? It might be easier for me to scoot around in that until I heal."
Mordred
"Yeah...somewhere..."
Mordred frowned slightly.
"I don't think we burned it like we were going to..."
Gwen
Gwen smiled.
"Just as well we didn't, I guess."
She frowned.
"Now, kiss me, my darling shirty husband."
Mordred
"I'm not shirty."
Mordred kissed her slowly.
"I'm sexy. Obviously."
Gwen
Gwen smiled.
"Yes, you are, my darling love."
She kissed him back.
"And you were meant for me."
Mordred
"We were meant for each other," Mordred said softly.
"...Elizabeth."
Gwen
Gwen smiled sweetly as she reached to kiss him again.
"I love you... Anthony," she whispered.
Mordred
"I love you always, my dear sweet love."
Mordred smiled slightly, and kissed her lips.
Gwen
Gwen kissed him back.
"I still can't believe I was English in a past life. Probably shirty."
She kissed him again.
"That was a bizarre experience."
Mordred
"It was rather..."
Mordred chuckled slightly.
"They thought we were both mad. Well, all three of us cos Vort got sucked into it too."
Gwen
Gwen grinned.
"Well, at least it told us something we already knew. That we were made for each other. Still... aches when I think about it... the thought of almost losing you."
Mordred
"I love you. Always. I'm yours."
Mordred touched the dog collar on his neck softly, then kissed the ring on her finger.
"Still not tamed though."
Gwen
Gwen nodded.
"Once my piercing has healed, I will try again."
She kissed him.
"And I am always yours, darling boy."
Mordred
"Shall you know?"
Mordred arched an eyebrow.
Gwen
Gwen grinned.
"I shall. And I will succeed. Trust me."
Mordred
"I don;t think you will..."
Mordred smiled a dangerous smile. He'd been talking to Spike about what he could do to get his revenge. Gwen wouldn't know what hit her.
Gwen
"Oh baby, as soon as I'm healed, you're in for the ride of your life."
Gwen grinned cheekily, then pulled his face to hers for a long, lingering kiss.
Mordred
Mordred just smiled as he kissed her back.
He wasn't going to give himself away.
He had plans.
Gwen
Gwen winced slightly as she moved.
"Owie."
She kissed him one last time.
"So, you feel like a little sleep?"
MOrdred
"Yeah, why not?"
Mordred shrugged slightly.
Soon, they both fell asleep in each other's arms.
