The big black object sat on the table, both men standing over it. Doyle glanced at his lover, unable to prevent the shudder from running down his spine.

"Bloody hell, mate, couldn't you have got one bigger?" Doyle visibly winced.

"Thought you'd said the bigger the better?" Bodie responded, a wide smile on his handsome face.

Doyle thought about it for a second before replying. "Well, I guess I did, but I never expected something like this!"

"So, do you want to play now?" Bodie rubbed his hands together gleefully.

Hand on one hip, Doyle camped, "Ooh sailor. Well, seeing as you've bought it for me, then I guess yes. How do I switch it on?"

Bodie turned it on, listening to the vibration of the item and chuckling as Doyle paled. "Don't worry, sunshine, in time you'll love it. And I am very happy to instruct you in its use."

"Hmm, thanks Bodie, I really appreciate it."

"Well, at least Cowley's getting up to date with modern machinery, that's all I can say. About time we had laptops to be able to do our reports on. Right, are you sitting comfortably?"

-- THE END!!! --

(Well, what were you expecting? LOL)
