Author's Note: Alright, so there's no real reason this hasn't been updated other than the fact that I haven't had anything to update with. Hopefully, this is a start to a long line of updates. :D
Thanks to AimlessGirl for giving me basically all of the prompt ideas!
Disclaimer: I STILL do not own…
1. Throats. They were either at each other's throats or sticking their tongues down them.
2. Help. "Arthur, darling, a little help moving the crib would be lovely."
3. Realize. "You realize that his tormenting you is Eames's way of flirting, don't you?"
4. Couch. It wasn't surprising to find Eames slipping on the couch on any given night; Arthur kicked.
5. Porcelain. After Eames used his lamp to massacre a spider, Arthur decided they couldn't have nice things.
6. American. Their relationship was like the Revolutionary War all over again.
7. Midnight. April wasn't surprised to come home at midnight to find her dads waiting for her.
8. Wander. Arthur wandered the city streets, cigarette in hand, desperately trying to forget him.
9. Home. Even though he was really across the pond, anywhere Arthur was felt like home.
10. Once. Eames had to ask only once before Arthur said, "Yes."
11. Only. Only Eames could make Arthur blush on a whim.
12. Healing. After Ariadne and Arthur's break up, Eames knew he couldn't try anything; Arthur was still healing.
13. Chance. "You had a second chance and you went right back to her; am I not enough?"
14. Poker. Poker had taught him to hide emotions from everything and everyone.
15. Wind. Eames was like the wind; you couldn't hold him back, but you enjoyed him while he was there.
16. Dance. Music drifted through Eames's IHome and Arthur looked up from his book as Eames held out a hand asking, "Care to dance, lovey?"
17. Piano. Eames sat down at the piano, tears streaming down his face, and began to play their song.
18. Is. No other man is more opposite from him or will ever be as perfect for him.
19. Silence. Every fight ended this way-with bitter silence.
20. Despite. Despite his usual disapproval of couples working the same job, Cobb had to admit they were good together.
21. Unexpected. Eames's proposal was unexpected-but Arthur's "yes" was even more so.
22. Knew. Arthur knew falling for Eames would only tear him apart...but he couldn't help himself.
23. Couldn't. Arthur couldn't take the forger back; he couldn't put himself through that again.
24. Twenty-four. Twenty-four beers to many later, both of them had found their way out of the closet.
25. Reality. Eames watched Arthur silently as he slept and realized that if this was a dream he didn't want to wake up.
Author's Note: It was actually really nice to get back into the Arthur/Eames stuff… Really nice. I love these guys. Thanks to anyone who still actually reads!
Peace, Love, Mark, and Iggy.
Kierstin.
