Last night we played a quick scene, both in our pyjamas - I was a schoolgirl caught wandering the corridors at night, Abel was the housemaster who caught her.

He demanded to be told what I was doing out of bed so late. I was tempted to see if he could keep a straight face:

“I wanted to see the lunar eclipse, sir.”

Not a giggle from him: “Given the last one was in May 2006, you may have had to wait for a long time. Now, the truth.”

Obviously, I got it worse for lying. First came four crisp, firm whacks over the pyjamas for wandering about, then four more on my bare bottom - pyjamas pulled down but not right down, just to bare enough flesh to stripe.

Then we admired my stripes together, and cuddled.

“Did you like my excuse?” I asked.

“Did you like my response?” he asked back.

“Yeah, but actually,” I said, “there was a full lunar eclipse in March this year; I just thought I wouldn’t bring it up.”
“Really?” he said. “Well, you would have still got the cane.”

Funny how that happens… eclipse or no eclipse. :)
