Weekly Drabble Challenge

Rules:
1) A drabble is, by definition, a 100-word story therefore all responses should be 100 words exactly, no exceptions.
2) You may also choose to respond to this challenge with a five-minute sketch.
3)PLEASE put the word DRABBLE at the top of your post. That way people can easily spot the drabbles in amongst any reader comments they receive.

RATING:I don't think this should be limited so reader beware that they could be any rating (you could put it in the subject line if you feel it needs it)

PLEASE try to remember to make each drabble a comment in response to the original post. That way, if the comments start to collapse, the drabbles themselves should remain visible.

Your mission: Dreary weather.  Write the boys staying in because it's too slushy/rainy/cold/miserable fucking hot to go outside.

Drabble: Jeeves and the precious Warmth (PG rated)

"Something about this bally weather makes one really appreciate having a cozy flat to hole up in, eh, Jeeves?"

"Indeed, sir. To be out in this weather seems exceedingly unfortunate."

Bertie hummed thoughtfully. "I suppose that's why homeless spend what they have on Dutch Courage. Warms you up right quick."

Jeeves agreed. "Perhaps it is less dreadful that way."

The brunette sighed, forehead against the freezing window, eyes closed. "More's needed. Could we...?"

Unsurprised, the valet hid a smile. To him, Bertie's kind heart seemed a warmth of its own.

Maybe that was why he felt at home with him.



__________

Is Bertram actually depicted a brunette in the books? I seem to remember someone mentioning him a blond... Argh... I don't know, so I just pictured Laurie-Wooster.
And actually... there's something I've been wondering. When writing something like "there's", does that count as one word or two? *sighs* I feel like an idiot now...
Also: First drabble I ever did, yay! *coughs*

The ending there is lovely. That doesn't stop Jeeves from shamelessly manipulating Bertie, though! ;)

Contractions count as one word, at least in my book.

Well, he's Jeeves. We might be able to forgive him, somehow. ;)

Thanks!
