Missing Scene 1 from The Rubber Band
By Lady Q

"Nuts!" I angrily exclaimed as I slammed the bottom drawer to my dresser.

I was sore.

I was sore at Miss Fox for taking my favorite yellow silk pajamas, a gift to me not by my so-called sister, but from Mr. Nero Wolfe himself

The big fat liar.

Sure, I understood the need to keep the truth of our relationship in the closet; in fact, I was the one to propose it in the first place. However,at the time I didn't think that there would be a woman living underneath our roof.

Now I am out some favorite night clothes and out of my lover's big comfortable bed.

Well, to hell with her and Nero Wolfe.

I may be out some pajamas, but dang if I'm going to let a woman come between me and my man.

So with that vexing thought in mind, I furiously pulled out some old flannel pajama bottoms, a well-loved pair with a big hole right where my dick should be, and marched shirtless towards the old fatso's bedroom.

I turned off the alarm and stomped into our room banging the door hard enough that his favorite picture of his prize winning orchids fall off the wall.

"Archie!" Nero Wolfe cried out from near his closet door.

I held up my hand and motioned him to silence

"Don't talk! I'm too angry to talk to you right at this moment. You damn well know how much those yellow silk pajamas mean to me. You should also know how much it means to me to be in your bed and to wake up in your arms. Well, she may be wearing my favorite night clothes, but no way in HELL am I
going to let her throw me out of our BED!"

So with my ratty old pajamas that showed my naked dick, I angrily grabbed his covers off the bed and hopped into it. With a disgusted sigh, I turned off the lamp on my side of the bed and flopped on my side, with my naked back towards him

An incensed silence filled the room as I lay in our bed and waited for him to sit down on his side of the bed.

He knew I was mad at him. He also knew that I wasn't about to forgive him for what he did.

There are some things in life that a man shouldn't give in on, and this was one of them.

"Good night, Archie." His voice sounding sad as he turned out the light and climbed into bed

I didn't say a word for I still had my back towards him and my eyes were shut in fury over our argument. Ignoring the wet streaks that I felt rolling down my cheeks. As I remembered my mom words,"You know how the sun should never go down on anger?" Well, both Wolfe and I failed on that regard.

It was going to be a restless night for the both of us.
