"Yes, my dear," Philby said as he slid her a cup of coffee in a Mickey Mouse mug, made just as he had learned she liked it.
"You know, I'm still not totally used to all your little nicknames, but that doesn't mean I don't like them."
He smiled at her in an almost expectant way. She looked from him to coffee and in a joking manor stepped away from him, "What did you do to this coffee?"
He laughed,"Pick up the mug."
Cautiously she picked up the steaming mug revealing a folded piece of paper. She looked up and him with a suspicious look that was ruined by a burst of laughter when she saw his face full of giggly anticipation. What ever he had written in this paper he seemed excited for her to read it.
She unfolded the paper, curiosity fulling her.
The note read: 'What's Mickey without Minnie, What's Tigger without Pooh, What's Donald without Daisy, that's me without you & when Elmo isn't ticklish and Pooh Bear hates honey, when tigger stops bouncing and Goofy isn't funny, when Peter Pan can't fly and Simba never roars, when Alice in Wonderland can't fit though small doors, when Dumbo's eats are small and happily ever after isn't true, that's when I'll stop loving you.'
A wide smile grew across her face as did his when seeing her beam so brightly.
Still not looking away from the paper she spoke with a giddiness in her voice, "Where did you even find this Dell?"
"That is classified information," said as he put a hand under her chin and tilted her head upward so they met eyes. He leaned forward and kissed the girl before him, both of them in a fit of giggles.
