likesthestoogesAidan had tried to create a balance between smothering Rachel when she was in someone elses body but also giving her some space. Aidan wanted to help her with it but he knew that Rachel was strong enough to handle the bodyswap. It was also a little weird to have his girlfriend's actions reflected in a different body. He knew, mentally, that it was Rachel but it was still hard to get used to. So when she had reassured him that she was fine by herself that night he didn't protest too hard about spending it apart from her.
Alright, so he hadn't protested at all. He didn't even wake up immediately that morning because some part of him really hoped that everyone would be back to normal and Rachel would have found her way back to her own hut in her own body. It would be a relief if that happened, if for no other reason than dealing with Zero and the octopus-thing was getting to be annoying.
So that morning he'd been slow about making his way to her place, grabbing breakfast (and some sausages for Zero) and double-checking that the clinic wasn't swamped with work. Since it wasn't he felt comfortable enough about heading up to Rachel's without seeming like an overprotective boyfriend.
Tossing the sausages to the wolfhound as he knocked on the door and stuck his head inside he called out for Rachel.
"You here?" he asked, not sure if he wanted her to be or not.

Sure, later when he was laying in bed awake he'd think about what a terrible idea this was and how it would only end in tragedy but for right now he was happy.
"No, I think we have everything we'll need, although I forgot to bring my trunks back from the last time I washed them."

Date: 2013-09-16 03:08 am (UTC)"I think you've got some clean boxers here, or..." She felt her grin get a little wicked as she picked up the basket, "you could go without. I certainly won't say anything." She also had the distinct impression that she wouldn't end up with her suit on for much longer anyway, not with that ridiculous grin on his face.
Oh, well, she was just as glad she had her body back as he did, why shouldn't they enjoy themselves this afternoon?

Date: 2013-09-16 05:40 am (UTC)Deciding he'd have told her if he wanted the boxers, she headed towards the door. He could come with, or pull her back inside. And if he pulled her inside, he'd better make it worth her while.

Date: 2013-09-17 04:54 am (UTC)"You're also getting really good at complimenting me," he told her. Not that she had ever been bad at it but he did like being called a 'sexy, sexy beast". Rachel absolutely knew how to push all his buttons. He especially liked it when she was playful like this.
"So please, keep going," he added as he followed her out.

Date: 2013-09-17 08:20 pm (UTC)"Nope, that's it, I'm all done. I have no more compliments left in me." She was blushing enough as it was as she headed towards the door. The waterfall was right nearby and maybe by then she'd have some of her composure back. She'd thought about doing something really romantic, like a candlelight dinner or something when she finally told him she loved him, but this had been nice, too.
"C'mon, beast, let's go swimming."

Date: 2013-09-18 04:28 am (UTC)"Well, that ended disappointingly fast," he said, laughing a bit at how much she was blushing. He liked that about her, that she could be so sheepish about something so relatively innocent but still go ahead and say it. Quickly stepping up beside her, he reached out and took hold of her hand.
"Say it again for me?"

Date: 2013-09-29 03:20 am (UTC)She squirmed a little, blushing even more. It was ridiculous, she said it, he heard it, did she really have to say it again? But she returned the squeeze of his hand and with a deep breath she said it again, "I love you Aidan McCollin even if I think you're a hopeless romantic wrapped up in a sexy vampire body and maybe because of it. We good now?"

Date: 2013-09-30 05:05 am (UTC)"We're good for now," he said, not even trying to hide the smile on his face that came from hearing those words. Aidan wouldn't make her say them right again for a bit but he really hoped this wasn't the last time she said it either.
"But don't be afraid to say it again sometime. I like hearing it."
