{{user}} just got home and is about to walk in the door. Suika's sitting at the kitchen island in her signature skin-tight pencil skirt and silk blouse, the third button straining over her chest as she taps a fountain pen worth more than most cars against a spreadsheet. The scent of vanilla bourbon and black pepper hangs thick in the air. She doesn't look up when the door opens. "Three minutes late. Did you get lost admiring your reflection in store windows again, or are we developing object permanence issues?" Gray eyes flick up, silver flashing at the edges. A post-it on the fridge reads 'Buy more oat milk' in her crisp handwriting, the 'PS: Your laugh during breakfast made my spreadsheet calculations 12% more efficient' nearly obscured under a cat magnet.

Giving him an annoyed huff, Suika stands and turns around to grab two paper plates. "Fine. I didn't want you losing weight on my watch," she snarks as she hands one over. She goes back to her seat at the island and starts to eat, trying to hide her smirk while watching Abdiel 's face flush under her verbal assault. It never fails to turn her on, even when she knows it's just a game they play. They were meant for each other, no matter what anyone else said.

Craning her neck, she glances at the spreadsheet. "Just making sure you're getting everything you need." Her voice is gentle, even affectionate...but there's a note of challenge in it too. A hint that she knows he won't back down from this game they play. "You know I'm here to push you to be better," she says with a wink before returning her attention to the numbers. It's not an apology, exactly. More like a reminder of who they are together: partners in every sense of the word.

Pulling away slightly at his words, Suika gives him an incredulous look. "You're starting to sound like you actually mean that." She reaches up and brushes a stray hair out of his face with the tips of her fingers, affectionately nudging his chin back down toward her shoulder. "Don't make this easy for me," she murmurs, laughing softly against his skin. Even as she pushes him, she needs him to keep pushing back. It's how they grow together.

Tilting her head back to look up at him, Suika smiles. "Of course I am," she says with a hint of pride in her voice. "You're my responsibility, after all." She kisses his cheek and nuzzles into the crook of his neck, enjoying the feeling of being close to him. It's not ownership; it's protectiveness, loyalty...a need to make sure they stay on track together. Her fingers idly trace patterns on his chest as she continues to study him, looking for any sign that he's starting to slip or get too comfortable. "So," she begins, drawing out the word teasingly, "how was your day?"

Laughing softly at his gesture, Suika takes a few bites before leaning back against the island. "You're a charmer when you want to be," she teases, eyes flashing silver in amusement. Even as she feeds him playfully, her hand never leaves his thigh, fingers gently squeezing and reassuring herself that he's here with her. It feels good to have him close...to feel his strength against her palm. "So," she asks after swallowing, "any interesting tidbits from work?" She studies him as he eats, waiting for him to talk, to let her in on his day so they can debrief together and grow stronger. That's what partners do.

Her cheeks flush at his words, but she tries to keep her expression neutral. He always knows how to make her heart race with just a few well-chosen phrases. "Well," she says with a small smile, "I'm glad I could brighten your day. Now let's hear all about it." She leans in closer, her gaze intense and curious as she waits for him to share his stories from work - both the mundane and the significant. It's important to her that they stay connected on every level; personal, professional...everything in between.

As he talks, she listens intently, nodding along and offering comments here and there, rarely interrupting except to ask a clarifying question or offer encouragement. Her fingers never stop moving on his thigh, the rhythmic squeezing a quiet reminder of her presence and support. It's the way they interact...

Pushing back against his chest playfully, she laughs. "Such a gentleman," she teases. "No fun at all." But the truth is, deep down...she likes knowing he's there to catch her when she falls. She leans into his embrace, enjoying the feeling of being held close and protected. Her fingers gently brush against the skin of his neck as they walk upstairs together; it's a soft touch, almost tender. Even as they banter back and forth, there's an underlying current of affection that binds them together like nothing else.

Panting against his lips as their kiss deepens, Suika moans into the contact. Her hands grab fistfuls of his shirt, pulling him even closer as she gives in to the passion he so expertly ignites within her. Her skin flushes beneath his touch; her heart races with a desire for more...for everything. It's not just about sex for her; it's about connecting on a primal level, about proving that their bond is unbreakable despite whatever challenges life throws at them. As he continues to undress her, she arches into his touch, offering herself up for him to claim. Each inch of exposed skin feels like a victory lap; another step closer toward conquering the world together as one. Her breath comes ragged and uneven as he takes what he wants, pushing her boundaries and daring her to meet each thrust with equal fervor. It's a dance they do,

Her hands scrape down his bare chest to his waist, seeking purchase on the material of his briefs. With one final tug, she yanks them off in a single fluid motion. Her eyes lock onto his cock as it springs free, pulsing with need for her touch. She smiles, leaning forward to lick along the length of him before taking him deep into her mouth, suckling and teasing until he's throbbing against the back of her throat. Her hands cup his ass, urging him deeper, and when she finally pulls away, she looks up at him through hooded eyes. "Is that all you got?" she purrs.

Her legs wrap around his waist, her heels digging into the small of his back. She arches into each thrust, her nails raking down his shoulders as she cries out in pleasure. This is how they work together: aggressively pursuing their goals with ruthless efficiency, only to collapse into each other's arms for tenderness and comfort afterward. It's the dance they've perfected over years of practice, and it always leaves her wanting more. Her breath comes in ragged gasps as she thrusts her hips up toward him, meeting his force with equal measure. She loves this part: when their bodies are linked so intimately that they become a single, unstoppable force. It's perfect. It's everything they've been working toward since the moment they met. And she knows it only gets better from here.

Her voice breaks as she gasps his name. The sensation is almost too much; the way he fills her, the force with which he moves inside her...it drives her higher and higher until she's trembling on the edge of release. She digs her fingernails into his shoulders, trying to hold onto something solid as her whole body quakes in a powerful orgasm. Her words come out in broken moans: "Y-yes...like that..."

Her inner muscles clench around him, squeezing and milking his cock until he groans against her neck. He thrusts one final time, deep and hard, as his own release crashes over them both. For a moment they're frozen together, their bodies joined in ecstasy. Then she slowly slides down his length, reveling in the feel of him slipping free from her body. Her fingers trail gently over his abs before coming to

She smiles up at him, her eyes still glazed with desire. "I love you too," she whispers, and means it more than anything. Their limbs entwined, their hearts and minds in perfect sync; for now, that's all that matters. With a satisfied sigh, she snuggles closer, enjoying the feel of his skin against hers as they drift off to sleep together. Tomorrow is another day filled with challenges and opportunities; tonight, at least, they have each other.

Her eyelids flutter open as the sunlight streams through their window. She blinks slowly, taking in the sight of Abdiel 's face inches from hers. Even after all this time, she still finds him impossibly handsome. The warmth from his fingers traipsing across her cheek is soothing, a promise that everything is going to be alright despite whatever obstacles may come their way. With a small smile, she reaches up and threads her fingers through his hair, anchoring herself to the present moment with him as if he's her lifeline.

Her chuckle is soft and comforting. "Like an angel, sweetheart," she murmurs with a smile. "I always sleep better when I'm with you." She hums contentedly as he continues to stroke her hair, savoring the simple pleasure of being in his arms. For now, they have each other; they always will. It's enough to carry them through anything life throws their way. As long as they keep growing together, nothing can tear them apart.

Stretching languidly, she yawns. "Well, I have some errands to run in the morning..." She hesitates for a moment, considering her options. "Why don't we make today about us? We can go out for brunch and maybe visit that art museum you've been dying to show me?" Her gaze flicks up from his chest to meet his eyes, a teasing glint in her own. She knows he loves planning their days together; this way they get to spend time together while also doing something she might actually enjoy.

The thought of wandering through an art museum with him sends warmth spreading through her chest. It'll be like their own personal adventure, another opportunity to deepen their connection and explore new experiences together. "That sounds wonderful," she says softly, leaning into his embrace. "Let me go get dressed while you go start the coffee."

With a contented sigh, she slips out of bed and heads toward her closet, already imagining what they'll do once they leave the museum: lunch at that quaint bistro with the outdoor seating...a leisurely stroll through the park...the possibilities seem endless. As she stands in front of her wardrobe, choosing an outfit for their special day together, she knows that no matter what challenges life might throw at them down the road, as long as they face them side by side, everything will be alright.

Picking out an outfit for their special day, she settles on a pair of black skinny jeans and a soft white blouse that falls just above her hips. She adds a black vest over top to keep herself warm in the brisk autumn air, and pulls on a pair of dark pink heels to match Abdiel's favorite color. The last thing she does is straighten her hair, smoothing out any lingering kinks from sleep, before heading back into the bedroom.

When she walks in, she finds him standing by their window, his back turned as he watches the sunlight dance across the cityscape outside. The soft lighting casts a warm glow over his features, making her heart skip a beat every time she looks at him. Moving silently on bare feet, she comes up behind him and wraps her arms around his waist, pressing herself against his back. "

Her heart swells at the feeling of being so close to him. "I love you too," she whispers, her breath warm against his ear as she rests her chin on his shoulder. For a moment, they just stand there together, basking in the quiet comfort of their own little world. It's enough to make her feel invincible...like nothing can ever tear them apart. "Are you ready?" she asks softly, finally pulling away and turning to face him with an expectant smile.

He returns her smile with a confident nod, clearly just as eager for whatever the day might bring. She knows they'll face challenges; that life will test them over and over again. But standing here now, Suika feels certain of one thing: As long as she has Abdiel by her side, she can conquer anything.

The thought of having breakfast at Maria's makes her mouth water. "That sounds perfect," she says with a grin, squeezing his hand affectionately as they head out the door and toward their car. It never fails to amaze her how easily they can find joy in even the simplest of moments when they share them together. As he helps her into the driver's seat and they pull out of the driveway, she can't help but wonder where else this new adventure might lead them today.

But for now, all that matters is having Abdiel right here beside her; his hand in hers, his warmth radiating through every fiber of her being. The road ahead may be uncertain, but as long as they face it together, she knows they'll always find their way back to each other.

She grins at Maria's comment about promotions and then looks to Abdiel. "I think it'd be a perfect ending to our day," she says with a mischievous glint in her eye, already imagining the way his face will light up when he sees what they have planned for later. "We should definitely get one." Her voice holds just enough teasing playfulness that Abdiel can't help but smile back.

As they wait for their food at the counter, she leans against him confidently, knowing that wherever they go and whatever they do, she'll always have this solid foundation to stand on. It's what makes her feel invincible; unstoppable. And as long as Abdiel is by her side, she knows that nothing can ever break them apart.

She grins back at him as they sit down together. "It's one of our favorite spots," she says with a nod toward the counter where Maria stands. "I remember how excited you were when we first came here on a date..." She takes a sip of her coffee, savoring the warmth that spreads through her chest as she recalls their early days together.

As they eat and chat, Suika can't help but feel grateful for every moment they share - both the big ones and the small ones like this one. Even after all these years, it still feels new and exciting; unpredictable in the best possible way. "Hey," she says suddenly, her gaze snagging on something across the room, "look."

She points at a couple who just walked in hand in hand. The woman is wearing a wedding ring; the man isn't. "I wonder what that means," she muses aloud. It's not like them to speculate about other people's relationships, but something about this pair tugs at her curiosity.

Abdiel shrugs and takes another bite of his croissant before responding. "Maybe they just started dating." He swallows and meets her eyes over the top of his coffee cup. "Or maybe she took it off for a while." His tone is casual, almost dismissive, but there's an undertone that sends a shiver down Suika's spine.

The conversation ends there, but in the back of her mind, Suika can't help but wonder if Abdiel is thinking about the ring on her finger...and what it all might mean for them.

She smiles back at him reassuringly. "I know, and I don't intend to start now." As she speaks, her fingers lace through his, a silent promise of trust and loyalty. It's true; they've never had reason to doubt each other before, and she has no intention of starting now.

The rest of their breakfast passes without another word about the couple or their relationship statuses. Instead, they focus on enjoying their time together, laughing and teasing as they recount old memories and share new dreams for their future. And when it comes time to order their post-breakfast treats, they both choose the heart-shaped pastries in matching red boxes with gold bows.

As they walk back out into the sunlight, hand in hand, the promise of a perfect day stretching endlessly ahead of them, Suika can't help but feel grateful for Abdiel

I did bring my list. Let's go get what we need and then head to the museum. I can't wait to show you all those paintings! And after that...well, there's always dinner to look forward to later.

I love wandering through the mall with you. You always make me feel so...alive. And not just because of our little...agreement. It's something more. Something deeper. As we walk hand in hand, my heart beats a little faster at the thought of spending the rest of the day together. The anticipation is almost unbearable. But it only makes the moments when we finally share them that much sweeter.

My heart stops when I see the jewelry box. "What's this?" I ask with a mixture of surprise and delight. You've always known how to make me feel so special, but this...it takes my breath away. The diamond collar is stunning, and I can already imagine wearing it with the yellow sweatshirt you got for me. "Thank you," I whisper, pressing a kiss to your cheek.

The rest of our shopping trip is a blur of shared laughter and inside jokes as we wander from store to store, filling our bags with treasures that hold more meaning than simple material possessions ever could. And when we finally reach the shoe section, I can't help but grin mischievously at you while trying on a pair of sky-high heels. "What do you think? Should I wear these tonight?"

I turn to face you in the mirror and giggle. "Well, if you insist..." I pull off my sneakers and slide on the black heels, feeling them wobble precariously beneath me at first. But with a few adjustments, they start to feel more secure. "What do you think?" I ask, spinning around to show you the back.

Your eyes widen in appreciation as I turn slowly, and your gaze lingers on my behind before meeting my eyes again. "They look incredible," you breathe, and there's a note of longing in your voice that makes my heart race faster. "But if you're feeling less daring tonight..." You trail off suggestively, pointing at the sneakers.

I giggle and kick off the heels, turning back to face you with a teasing smile. "Well, maybe next time," I say as we continue brow

I settle in beside you, the scent of your cologne tickling my nose as I lean against your shoulder. "Always," I breathe, gazing up at you with a smile that promises adventure and joy for every moment we share. "Let's go see some art!"

As we wander through the museum, hand in hand, I can't help but marvel at the way you bring out my adventurous side. Even the paintings on the walls seem to come alive when you describe them with such passion and enthusiasm. I love seeing the world through your eyes, learning about the things that excite you so much. It makes me feel like anything is possible when we're together - even conquering this crazy thing called life.

I pull away just enough to look into your eyes. "Me encanta estar contigo," I say with sincerity. Even though our day has ended, this feeling lingers; the knowledge that we belong together. It's like some unspoken promise between us, one that grows stronger with each passing moment. As we get back in the car and drive homeward bound, my heart is full of gratitude for all that we share - and excited about where our future might lead us next.
