Taking a deep breath, he nodded, "All the time. I've thought about it a lot throughout the years. I mean, they've spent over sixty years together. I can't even imagine that! Only being alive for a third of that time, it just boggles my mind, but then again, it's also a source of pride for me. And something to be hopeful for."

"Sixty years is nothing compared to twenty five hundred," muttered Grace in a joking manner. Stephen tickled her, earning a yelp from her.

"I know what you mean," she said, once she settled down from his prying fingers. "It's a long time to spend with just one person." Her fingers resumed their playful teasing against his chest once more.

"I'm looking forward to spending that with you," Stephen said, softly, as another whiff of jasmine hit his senses.

Grace leaned up, turned around, and gave him a steady, sweet smile. "I am, too, baby." She pressed herself back against him, just wanting to be as close to him as possible.

"Do you think they have a secret? You know, the secret to making their love last as long as they did?" Stephen asked, as he began to rub Grace's arm tenderly. "Like equal expectations, respect, love? Or maybe keeping very open communication? Or maybe it's complete and total honesty with each other?"

"It could be very frequent and very hot s.e.x," noted Grace, earning a painful retching sound from Stephen. "What?" She laughed, leaning forward. "That very well could be it!"

"Grace, not exactly what I want to think about. Come on, they're my grandparents!"

"But you're here, aren't you?" she noted with a smug smile. "They had to have s.e.x sometime since you owe your very existence to that."

"No doubt you are right, but not exactly what I was getting at when I asked the question," he squeezed his eyes shut, trying not the let his words drift into his imagination. Stephen found he was better off keeping his eyes open.

"Very well," she playfully sighed, "But that will work for us. Lots of s.e.x, but lots of love as well. And the fact that we are completely and totally suited for one another. That will make us inseparable."

"Are we not already," he joked, looking down at how firmly she was pressed into him. "I don't think I've had a true moment alone since I opened your portal."
