Sydnee throws her arms around Hannibal's neck kissing his cheek. She takes in the dark red lip pattern left behind but doesn't say anything. Hannibal mistakes her grin for that of her happiness rather than mischievousness.
"I'll see you at home after work, yes? It's my turn to cook tonight so don't you dare eat anything before you get home." Sydnee says hopping off of Hannibal's lap and straightening out her skirt. She smiles very large and caresses his hair smoothing down any signs that she'd been there.
Hannibal catches her hand and kisses it before letting her go. "Of course, I can't wait for a messy kitchen and failed attempts at cooking. Only for you get this 'Subway' and make me eat it." His sarcasm makes Sydnee laugh and shake her head scoldingly.
"Oh, you like it and you know it." She says picking up her coat and briefcase. Waving her fingers, Sydnee slips out the door and down the stairs, smirking at the lipstick stain she left behind.
"Do you have to go?" Jade groans at Will. They were cuddled on their couch while Will read his book. This was Jade's favorite past time. Listening to Will's heartbeat. And stealing his warmth to fuel her own reptilian body ( an inside joke between the two). But mostly listening to his heartbeat.
"It's my appointment with Hannibal, yes I have to go." Will says snapping his book shut and tossing it on the floor. He twists around so he's facing Jade. "But I promise, I'll come back, and we can pick up right where we left off." He says breathlessly.
Jade kisses him, holding him close for a second before letting him go. His woodsy scent clings to her clothes. She smiles. There is a little of her lipstick left around Will's mouth. She doesn't say anything of course. She likes the think of it as pay back for him leaving her.
Will slides a hand through his already mess curls. He gave her that smile and she jumps on him again, intent on making him stay at their little farmhouse.
He smiles against her lips.
"I have to go now, or I'll be late." He says pulling away from her. Jade presses one last kiss to his neck and reluctantly lets him go.
"I suppose. What do you want for dinner anyhow, I should prolly make something…?" Jade asks trying not to notice all her lipstick on her husband. He is wearing more of it than her.
Will thinks for a moment. He bites his lip and then says, "I haven't a clue. I'm sure whatever you make will be just fine."
Jade rolls her eyes, then gets up. Typical man.
"You better hurry or you're gonna miss your appointment." Jade says, handing Will his coat. She ushers him out the door and waves from the window a smile on her face. Those lipstick stains, though.
"Ah, just in time William." Hannibal says opening the door. The first thing he notices is the light pink mark on his neck ,and the red coloring around his lips, showing lots of scrubbing.
He moves to the side and allows Will to enter. The freesia scent of Jade clings to Will. Jade's lipstick, Hannibal muses.
The two take a seat in their normal chairs. The first thing out of Wills mouth is "What is that?" His eyes are fixed on Hannibal's face. His eyes are confused, like he couldn't believe what he was seeing.
Hannibal reaches up and touches his cheek, not feeling anything, he stands and moves to the glass of his cabinet. He turns his face casually to the side and stops when he see the dark red lip mark.
Oh, Sydnee you minx. Hannibal thinks wryly. He whips out his handkerchief and wipes the mark away. Checking himself over to make sure there weren't any more, Hannibal turns around and saunters back over to Will, holding out his handkerchief.
"It seems your dear lovely wife left her own affections." Hannibal says smirking. Will groans. He takes the handkerchief and furiously wipes at his mouth.
"I was so sure I'd gotten all of them." Will says. He looks up at Hannibal.
Hannibal points a finger at his own neck. The snarky grin is back on his face as Will's face lights up bright red.
He mumbles incoherently about "Not letting his wife wear that dammed stain ever again". He wipes at the pink mark on his neck and hands the handkerchief back to Hannibal.
"Thanks…" Will mumbles still red.
"It seems a female's choice show of affection is the lipstick mark. I wouldn't be too mad; this would be the third time you've showed up with that same mark." Hannibal says folding his hankie and putting it back in his pocket.
Will laughs. He runs a hand through his hair and shakes his head exasperatedly.
"Well, at least I was kind enough to tell you. Just think, you probably went half the day with that." Will laughs.
Hannibal's face drops his smile. Will smiles winningly.
"Let's not mention this again, shall we?"
