Work Text:

****

Crowley: Want to have lunch at the Ritz tomorrow?

Aziraphale: I’m so sorry, I can’t.

Crowley: You can’t, or you won’t?

Aziraphale: I can’t. I have an appointment for a massage.

Crowley: You have a wot?

Aziraphale: An appointment for a massage. You know, something humans do?

Crowley: Why?

Aziraphale: Don’t laugh, but I’ve been going to the fitness lately and …

Crowley: I’m not laughing.

Aziraphale: And my personal trainer…

Crowley: You have a personal trainer?

Aziraphale: Yes, I do.

Crowley: What does he look like?

Aziraphale: Who?

Crowley: Your personal trainer, who else? I bet he’s all smooth, tanned, six pack.

Aziraphale: Yes, in fact, he is and he has. Anyway Dwayne…

Crowley: Oh! He’s got a name!

Aziraphale: Of course he’s got a name! Are you going to keep interrupting me?

Crowley: No no, please continue, I’d like to hear all about Sixpack Dwayne.

Aziraphale: *sighs* He suggested to get a massage. He said it would do me good. He’d do it himself, but…

Crowley: Yeah, bet he would.

Aziraphale: But he’s on holiday this week and he recommended me this masseur. He’s supposed to be one of the best.

Crowley: I can give you a massage.

Aziraphale: Don’t be silly.

Crowley: I’m not, I can. I mean, I can give it a try. I’ve had a few massages in the past.

Aziraphale: Have you?

Crowley: Yes, neck, shoulders, back. Feels rather good actually. Not the legs, don’t like them touching my legs. Or feet.

Aziraphale: Feet?

Crowley: Even worse, I’m very ticklish.

Aziraphale: Have you ever given a massage?

Crowley: No, not yet. But I know how it’s done. Can’t be that hard. Always wanted to try it (with you, only with you, but I’m not going to say that out loud). Never found me a Guinee pig though.

Aziraphale: Are you calling me a pig?

Crowley: No, NO! That’s not what I meant! I meant I never…never mind, you want me to give you a massage or not? Afterwards you can tell me what I did wrong, what I can improve. You’ll like that. And you can still go to your appointment tomorrow. 

Aziraphale: Yes, I think I might like that. Sounds interesting. Let’s do this.

Crowley: Good! I’ll miracle everything I need, and you just make yourself comfortable.

Aziraphale: Oh Crowley, if you don’t mind me asking and if it’s not too much trouble, I’d like one with a happy ending. Yes?

 

Notes:

What is there to say, Aziraphale really is innocent and oblivious.
And Crowley? He's an itsy bitsy teenie weenie jealous.
