“I am. I don’t know what I would do without you to rescue me,” Summer teased. “Helpless and fragile and oh so very … ” She paused, looking down at their linked arms. “So very much in love with you.” She shook her head, like chasing away a thought. “So. You need amusing?”Vex couldn’t help the soft laugh that came from his mouth at her words, but it stopped when she said that. He gave a smile as he leaned forward to kiss her on the cheek. “I love you too,” he said in a voice that was almost too quiet to hear. At her next question, he shrugged, “Guess it depends whatcha mean. I don’t ‘ave anything to do today, really.”
“You came to me! I thought you had some idea in mind, then. Unless you want to help me with my house chores, laundry and clean dishes and the like. I’m sure everykitty would enjoy you playing with them, too.” Summer glanced over at the racks of dvd cases, then slid off the couch to sit beside him on the floor and lean on his shoulder. “Or we could just sit here and you could pet me.”
