He tried not to look too happy as he passed her on the landing, but it was just too much fun to see her annoyed. Damn, she was sexy when she was riled with him. He'd have to do an awful lot of sweet-talking to make up for this one. His grin got away from him as he thought about what he'd do to make it up to her, and he couldn't resist teasing her one last time as he paused. "I'll bring you back a souvenir." Before she lost any more composure and smacked him, he moved on.

"You should have heeded my advice."

He lifted his head from her lap a fraction and thought about saying something in retaliation, but the fingers kneading his temples were just doing too good of a job on his still-splitting headache.

"Why would you agree to follow two strange women into a darkened basement?"

He had the grace to look a little sheepish, knowing she probably knew him well enough to know the truth, anyway. "Well, they were kinda' gorgeous...until they turned out to be guys, anyway, and...ahh-AHHHHHH!," he screamed suddenly as her fingers tightened. "They were just going to show us a sub-terranean garden. I'd have begged off in the end!"

Mercifully, she decided to let him slide on the minor indiscretion, but he detected a decided note of triumph when she said, "I'm surprised a man as...experienced as yourself would have fallen for such an obvious deception. That particular form of 'bait and trap', I believe it's called, has been used for a hundred millennia."

Not being a complete fool, he kept his mouth shut. He was pretty sure she wouldn't want to hear that about the conversation he'd had with Malcom about Vulcan mating practices. Her fingers had gone back to their gentle ministrations, and moved back to slide through his silky hair.

"Perhaps the next time an offer is made, you'll choose more carefully," she said quietly, turning off the light above her bed as she spoke.

"Whatever you say, Darlin'," he murmured before she silenced him thoroughly and completely.
