Disclaiamer: I do not own the characters, but I did create this one-shot

Kaidan & Anna (before they adopt)

British Slang

After everything Anna and I have been through I can, for once in my entire, screwed up life, say I'm truly happy. I never would have dreamed or cared about getting married before meeting my Anna. She was with me when I turned in Maria and her revolting organization, if you can call something like that horrendous business an organization. She was there when I was doubting that a bloke like myself was worthy of such a wonderful, loving person like her. Anna has always been there knowing when I needed her and her unfailing love.

These are the normal thoughts in my head when I'm alone, Anna, Anna's love, her beauty, and anything else about her. Today I was off from my job and was waiting out the grueling hours till Anna got home. I tried to busy myself by cleaning- which I have improved on thanks to the aforementioned Anna- blaring music, even trying to cook, which may or may not have caused one or two ruined pans and a couple burns. Only thre-

"I can't believe the man! He's a total bloke and deserved the scolding he got!"

Anna was at least in a one-mile range. She was angry. Very angry. And I want to know who this guy thinks he is making my little Ann mad.

"Piss on the whole bloody lot of them. Our idea was brilliant. Jerry just wants to talk a bunch of rubbish to seem smart. He's a total dick! Look I'm almost home and Ki has been alone all day, poor thing. I'll talk to you tomorrow and we'll figure this out."

When I heard that I went back to trying to figure out what I was doing before I heard Anna being all mad and using British slang. Dear God, please let me have some self control when she steps in that door.

I heard her coming up the stairs and tried to act as naturally as I could when I had a problem only she could fix.

"You will not believe what I have dealt with today." She was so cute when she was angry with her feisty personality in her tiny body.

"Well I heard some of it." I went to her and wrapped her in a hug with a peck on the top of her kiss. "Whoever this Jerry guy is may just have to have a talk with me."

"A bloke like him isn't worth it." Oh, shit. Please do not do this now.

"Since when do you use the word 'bloke'?" I said trying to not suck her face off right then and there.

"Who knows? I've probably just picked up on some of your pretty boy slang." Anna said with a smirk. Did she know what her being mad and British was doing to me? By God, I think she did.

"Were you really so bloody bored that you cleaned the house?" Ok. Now she was just doing it for fun.

"It's horrible being alone without you. I have nothing or no one to do." I said with a wink. Two could play at this game.

"Well I'm here now." She said with an eyebrow raise.

We later found out who had the better self control and I will proudly say that it was not me. I also found out that Jerry is a coworker who has asked Anna out a few times too many even after seeing the ring on her finger. I promised to come and eat lunch with her everyday from now on. Figured once Jerry sees how hot Anna's husband is he'll back off a litte.
