*Rochester cradled her face in his hands tenderly. She was glowing, so very perfect. He kissed her once and rested his forehead against hers.*
"And I love you, Shadi."

*That funny thing happened in her chest again, and she wondered if anyone had ever felt this nice. Surely no one she knew. No one she knew could have possible felt this and then done all the other horrible things they had. She snuggled into him.*
"I'm sorry," *she said.* "That it wasn't... No. I've decided that was the first time. As far as I'm concerned."

*Rochester smiled shyly and shook his head, shifting so she might rest her head on his chest as he held her.*
"That sounds just smashing, darling. The perfect idea."
*He kissed the top of her head in thought.*
"And to celebrate such firsts...perhaps some chocolate is in order?"
*He leaned back slightly, trying to catch her eye questioningly.*

*Shadi wriggled around to look up at him.*
"Oh, can we?" *she said.* "It is!"

*Rochester smiled down at her and nodded, parting his lips confidently but his brow furrowed a bit in realization.*
"I...I'm afraid that I'm a bit low on my stock."
*He eyed her over.*
"So...is it worth it to you to get dressed again?"
*A small smile started to peek as his dimple deepened.*

"Are you going to let me?"

*Rochester let out a laugh and sighed playfully.*
"Well, darling...if it would mean that much to you...I suppose we can. But just this once."
*He gave her a wink.*

*Shadi giggled.*
"I suppose you're so frightfully rich you can be naked all the time."
*She paused, wondering if she needed to explain her logic.*
"I mean, it's warm enough. In your house."

*Rochester laughed once more, pulling her close to kiss her.*
"That is true..."
*He eyed her closely.*
"Although you always struck me as a girl that liked to pick out her own chocolates. Never know what you want til you get there."

"I think it's more that I want them all," *she said wickedly. She kissed him, then surveyed the wreckage.*
"It does seem like a waste, after all that work."

"What, chocolate? Or getting dressed?"
*Rochester nuzzled against her soft skin, looking up to her.*

"Chocolate is never a waste," *Shadi said seriously.* "Getting dressed, of course. There are so many things to remember."
*It certainly had been easier when she'd only had rags.*

*Rochester rested his hand on hers.*
"I tell you what, darling. Perhaps next time, I'll wear the dress and you can have the trousers."

*Shadi's eyes widened and she giggled.*
"I just hope you look as lovely in a dress as I look dashing in trousers," *she teased, pulling at various undergarments. She paused a moment, looking up at him.*
"Is this what it'll be like?" *she asked.* "All the time?"

*Her question made him pause and he looked serious for a moment. Then he hazarded a soft smile.*
"I...I guess. To be honest...I've never felt like this before."
