Summary
“What do you want for Christmas?”
The question came a little too suddenly, as if it had been waiting for the right moment to burst out but not quite found it. We were standing in Bond Street, in the rain, in front of a jeweller’s window, and Bunny was looking frantically at the items in it. It was not the same window we had cleaned up some eight or nine months ago, but I had inevitably been thinking of that night.
“Am I supposed to make a list?” I said, and he blushed.

What If We Kissed In Your Rooms At The Albany? by WolfieOnAO3
Fandoms: Raffles - E. W. Hornung, Raffles (TV 1977)
26 May 2020

Summary
‘What if we were found out? What if we were arrested? What if I, with my selfish affection led Raffles, the cautious, the suspicious, the audaciously careful criminal, to the docks for love? What if, what if... And thus I was able, most of the time, to keep from acting on how I felt. My fears kept me in check. My own anxiety kept me from lapses in resolve. ...Most of the time. Because for every “what if” in one direction, there came an equally possible “what if” running off in the opposite.
Because what if, what if....’

Summary
'But neither did we touch again on what Raffles professed to have forgotten—my “apostasy,” my “lapse into virtue,” as he had been pleased to call it. We were both a little silent, a little constrained, each preoccupied with his own thoughts. It was months since we had met...'
The story of what happened before 'The Gift of the Emperor' to bring this about.
