After a long day at the office, the sight of their neighbour's pool, half-frozen and covered in buttons, is just what she needed to bring a smile (Well, more of a smirk) to her face. Its not hard to guess who, and where, the buttons came from.

Stepping into their house, Alex tossed her jacket on the coat rack haphazardly before heading up the stairs and out onto the balcony. Crossing to where her wife reclined on a lounge chair with a bucket of buttons, she leaned down and pressed a quick kiss against her lips.

"You know I love you, right?"

Grinning like an idiot, she dragged out another chair for herself and sat down next to Michaela before slipping on her own glasses and grabbing a handful of buttons.

"God, you wouldn't believethe stupidity I had to deal with at work today."
