((Backdated to about a week after Jay's return from the rez))

[lil_hulk]

It had been a week after Jay had gotten back from the rez. He had settled back into an almost regular routine at the Avengers mansion. But there was something he hadn't quite done yet. It was one of the things he had quietly vowed to himself to do. He was kind of ashamed at himself for putting it off for a week, but now was not the time to dwell on it. He was fixing it. He had come back a man, so he had the courage for this. He just needed May to show up since he finished with his school for the day. Also, he needed to check the mirror for stubble.

"No rugged look for me," he noted to himself as he glanced himself over in the bathroom mirror. The bedroom window had been left open for his girlfriend's normal mode of entrance.

"As amazing as you are, I don't think tradition quite works that way," he noted with a wry smile. He didn't mind her leaning into him. It always felt good to have May close.

"I'm sure the tactile sensation that is me hasn't changed. I remembered to shave today." Though he had to raise an eyebrow at the Mulan question. "Uh... only if you want to stop watching Disney movies?"

May pouted at this, though he cheek was pressed against his chest and he couldn't quite see the pout. "Any more traditions planned without the use of a cell phone?"

"Mulan is very manly." She chirped, and she pulled back to ghost her finger tips over his jaw. "Yes, I noticed that you shaved. It's nice."

"Uhm, the... the only tradition that goes after that ceremony is... marriage. So, no. No plans to be without my cellphone for a long time." Well, if telling her he loved her hadn't sent her right out the window, he hoped that wouldn't either. Maybe he should have just said no, come to think of it.

"Then Mulan's okay by me," Jay commented with a grin. He let her feel up his jaw for a little bit before leaning in for a kiss. "Glad you noticed. I got rid of the rough and rugged look just for you."

"Oh." She grinned sheepishly before scooting a bit away, allowing him the chance to sit where ever he wanted. She wiggled her toes in her shoes and shyly looked away. "Well, then I would have to smack you for carrying a cellphone to that, maybe, one day."

"It's nicest when smooth and shaven." She said again, and once he was comfortable, promptly kissed him. She been having a decently good night so far, she wanted to keep it that way.

Hurray for not scaring her away! Jay settled down with his back against the bed. "You might, maybe, one day. Unless by then they're implanting cellphones in everybody's head."

Not likely, but he hated the thought of turning his ear to make the volume go up and down.

He took that prompt kissing and gave some right back. Jay'd missed her terribly. Bruce and Marcus were not remotely snuggly. And well, who'd want to kiss them anyway? Jay gently slid one of his hands under her jaw as they kissed. The more he could touch her, the better.
