I wanted happy couple fic so I wrote some :) Denial is fun. Hope this cheers up some people.
The hammock swayed gently between the palm trees.
Michelle opened her eyes as the wind picked up.
“Getting cold,” she mumbled against him. She felt his hand smoothing down her unruly curls and lightly kissed his chest in return.
“You want to go in?” Tony asked as he stroked her bare back with his fingertips.
“No,” Michelle whispered, her fingers brushing his abdomen, her other hand reaching up to grab onto the hammock,
It was difficult to get leverage and the hammock rocked precariously as she tried to slide up to kiss him.
“This always looked much easier,” she said as she leaned in and their lips met in a way that should have been awkward but actually seemed graceful and practiced.
“Well, I’m impressed,” he said as he wrapped his arm tightly around her waist and leaned down to grab a margarita glass off the sand.
Michelle took a sip of his drink and laughed when some of it spilled down his chin.
Without saying a word she licked it off his neck, breathing in him and the tropics.
She smiled as his fingers stroked her inner thigh.
“Are you sure you don’t want to go in?” He whispered in her ear, his fingertips inching up her thigh.
She moaned softly in response and looked down the beach at the people walking by the shore.
“Maybe--maybe we should,” she said after a few moments, laying her hand on his thigh and kissing him deeply.
“Do you notice how clear and bright the stars are here?” She asked, snuggling back against him.
“The CIA has an office down here I’m sure…we don’t have to go back.” He said lightly, kissing her forehead.
“I’d settle for any place where I could see the sun in the morning,” Michelle said softly.
Tony held her tighter. “Do you really dislike LA that much?”
Michelle didn’t answer, just held his hand against her heart.
“Sweetheart?”
“It’s just being in that office…most days I can handle it, but then sometimes -- No, I love LA, I love working for CTU. How can I not love a job where I get to see my husband all the time?” She turned on her side to look at him.
He gazed at her hungrily, cupped her face with one hand and kissed her soundly. “I think you’re amazing.” He smiled slightly, “Sometimes, when we’re working, I’m trying to concentrate and all I can think about is how there’s all those empty rooms.”
She smiled and caressed his cheek. “Honey, you find the room and I’ll find the time.”
They kissed again, this time with their arms wrapped around each other and as they rolled one way the hammock flipped over, leaving them laughing on the sand. They stood up together and picked up their shoes from the ground, still giggling as they made their way back down the beach to their hotel.
“Tony, can we just pretend that CTU doesn’t exist for a few hours?” Michelle asked leaning against him.
“Michelle, when I’m with you…you’re all that exists.”
They walked hand in hand to the door of the hotel.

I love that line. I'm a huge mark for sensory stuff, especially aromas. It's like here, you can feel the thick, humid air and the luuuuuv. ;)
“Tony, can we just pretend that CTU doesn’t exist for a few hours?” Michelle asked leaning against him.
*MELTS* Yes, that's such a good idea and so wonderful and eeeee! *squish x100*
And the idea of Tony and Michelle stealing off to an empty room in CTU... MROWR!!
Lovely, lovely!

Date: 2004-01-06 08:19 am (UTC)oh I really like that idea too...and as I said I suck at description so I just kind of try to describe scenes without really describing them. Wow that probably made *no* sense whatsoever.
Much much Luuuv. Thank you for the lovely awesome feedback, again :)
