Something’s change most stay the same

Michael and Jess where sweaty, even with the AC running in the new house and the men having cast breeze spells getting as much of the families belongings moved in one day was heavy work.

From the loving room came the sound of shifting furniture as the last chair was brought in and settled. The new house having sufficient space for both families' worth of furniture. Some duplicates had been marked out for sail but they were the fair exception.

Mich smiled wryly as his bed had been one of those marked items. Of course he really wouldn’t need it as Jessica’s bed was a proper Amazon sized bed and would be more comfortable for both of them.

The rapid change in the pair, going from living apart to sleeping together was not all that unusual. The process of a man attuning his magic to the matrix of an Amazon was a deeply intimate process that was made harder by prolonged separation of any kind. In fact, the two had been practically welded together at the hip all day. “Bonding lock” as it was known was something that all couples went through.

With Jessica’s bed and the rest of there things more or less in place something that had been tickling the Bach of Mich’s mind suddenly sprang to the fore.

“Ah shit! The bonfire.” He jumped to his feet.

Jess jerked looking to her watch. “Oh right we promised we’d be there. It’s supposed to start in an hour!”

“Pick out something for us to wear, I’ll go let our parents know where we are going.”

Mich hustled down the stairs and into the living room where the parents were taking a break. “Moms, Dad, there is a graduation bonfire this evening at the lake shore and Jess and I promised to be there.”

The Fatheres traded knowing smirks, while the mothers shared exasperated glances. “Be careful driving, and no drinking, you are coming home tonight” his birth mother instructed.

“Yes mom.” He rushed over and gave her a kiss on the cheek, before heading back up stairs to jump in the shower with Jessica.

The two lovers were washed and dressed in record time then out and in his truck. As the vehicle rumbled out of the drive the two sets of parents watched from the front porch.

There was a small betting pool on wether the pair would bring anyone else home with them. Odds were on Jessica wanting to keep her man to herself for at least a while.
