graves could only chuckle as she attempted to get the lights off her body. "you brought it upon yourself, sweetheart," he told elena as he walked behind her. "you said to suck it up, so i did,"

elena stopped and looked back at her husband. "that's not what i meant an' ya know it," she growled unhappy and crossed her arms to graves.

he chuckled again and walked up to her and set his hands on her hips. "i'm just playing with ya, sweetheart," graves said to her and pecked her forehead.

elena scoffs softly and touches his chest. "damn right ya are," she grumbled softly. "cause ya know i'll kick your arse if ya weren't."

graves chuckled again and hugged her against him gently. "and you would probably win."

elena glanced back toward her husband while she was on the ladder, decorating for christmas. she blinks a bit, her bright blue eyes confused.

"what do ya think i'm doin'?" the young irish woman replied as if it was the most obvious thing. "i'm hangin' the christmas lights."

"hun," the southern man sighed, while he put his hand on his face as he shook his head. "it's only november."

"an'?"

graves sighed louder. "it's not christmas yet!"

elena blinks again. "i know it's not christmas yet," she said to graves. "not my fault ya left me in charge of decorating an' this is what i'm doing. so, suck it up!"

graves looks up at her and smirked. "oh, that a challenge, sweetheart?"

elena pauses mid-hanging and looks down at graves. "what are ya - whoa!"

graves grabs her hips, and carries her into the bedroom.

"don't make a challenge you can't win, sweetheart!"

husbandgraves!: who let's elena take control of everything in the house. even in terms of decorating it. being a southern man, he believes that his woman should be at home while the men work. i mean, he's got money, why should she work?

wifevaleria!: who let's faye do whatever she wants, within reason, of course. valeria makes sure that her wife is protected and sends out only her best men to protect faye. they know not to hit or mess with faye or they mess with a feral valeria.
