"So what do you want to do?" Rafe asked playfully.
"Actually...I do have some ideas..." Alison smiled seductively. "But...oh my God...I forgot!"
"Wh...What?"
"I have a doctor's appointment today! In like an hour! Oh my God, you can come with me!!...But...."
"But what?"
"Well, it's just that...since you're only back for a day...we can't really let people know you're back. You wouldn't believe everything I went through with everyone asking me where you were, and why I couldn't contact you to tell you about the baby, and why you wouldn't come back.... If people saw that you're back, they'd start all over when you disappear again...and I really don't know how I'd explain it."
"Well, we'll figure something out. I'm sure there's a way around it." Rafe smiled as he pulled a pink rose from behind his back and handed it to Alison.
"You have your powers back!"
"Yeah, I guess I do."
"So maybe there's some way you can use them to-..."
"Like I said...We'll figure it out." Rafe winked with a playful smile on his face and Alison knew that they wouldn't have a problem.
"So I'm gonna go get a nice hot shower...Wanna join me?" Alison was trying to seduce him as she ran her fingers across his face and lips, and down neck.
"I...ummm...I...." Rafe was trying hard to resist but was not succeeding very well, "I wish I could..." He let out a heavy sigh, "Believe me...I REALLY wish I could..."
"What's the matter?"
"Alison...there's something I should tell you...about angels...and hot water..."
"Huh?"
"Well, see...we kinda...disappear in hot water.
"Disappear?? You mean, you go back to heaven?!"
"No, no, no...I mean, we're still here...you just can't see us."
Alison's seductive smile returned to her face. "Well...that could be fun," she said playfully.
"Tell ya what...you go get your nice shower, and I'll whip us up some breakfast."
"You're gonna cook for me, Mr. Kovich?"
"Hey! I know how to cook!...Well...not really...but toasting up some bagels and making coffee I can do... Cream and sugar, Mrs. Kovich?"
They both laughed.
"Ooooh...bagels! Sounds good. And remember...I'm eating for two here."
"Yeah, I've seen what you've been eating," Rafe laughed, "Remind me that we need to talk about that."
Alison laughed, as well, and gave Rafe a short, sweet kiss before turning to head towards the shower. Rafe walked off to the kitchen and began to make their meal. He liked "playing house" with her-Mr. and Mrs. Kovich. If only this day could last forever. Then they wouldn't need to "play" anything. It would be real. They could be married, and build a home together...with their child...and any other little surprises that might come along. If only.
