It went very simply.

It was Alec's birthday - he'd just turn ten - so after he'd been dropped off at Andrew's office he walked in and said, "It's my birthday. I want ice cream for dinner. You promised."

Andrew hides his second smile behind the casual lighting of a cigarette.

"I'm glad you like it. I know you'll take good care of it."

At least, he'd better.

"I will. I will. I promise." He completely intends to do that.

Then he bounces over and gives Andrew a hug. "Thank you, sir."

Andrew's vaguely surprised for a moment -- though really, he shouldn't be -- but he recovers well, patting Alec on the head and nodding.

"Happy birthday."
