Challenge #53 - Weekend
Title: Weekend Away (parts 21 - 24)
Author: Foreverbm
Timeline: Season 5
A/N: I will try and finish this tomorrow before I forget to stop, but it's 1.30am and I need to sleep!
And the condom(s) goes to: 4 to Michael
I decided it wasn’t worth worrying about what Hunter was up to; there was nothing I could do about it anyways, and didn’t want to waste the time we had alone on him.
I would deal with him when we got home.
I looked at Ben, who was laughing quietly to himself.
“Stop laughing!” I tried to sound serious but couldn’t “Let’s go exploring!”
I grabbed my jacket and followed Ben down the stairs and out of the motel. The sun was shining as he took my hand and we wandered towards the lake I had seen on our arrival.
“I can’t believe how quiet it is here!”
“It’s like we are alone; a million miles from anywhere!”
“I like that thought!”
He stopped suddenly, turning to me, his face serious.
“I do too.”
He pulled me into his arms, and I buried my head in his chest, listening to the steady beat of his heart. A cold shiver worked its way through my body for some reason and I wrapped my arms tighter around him.
“Michael…..you okay baby?”
I nodded my head, shaking off that cold feeling and grabbed his hand pulling him behind me to the waters edge.
“Do you think the water’s cold?” I asked Ben, thinking how wonderful it would be if we could at least dip our feet in.
“Mmmmm…. It probably would be. How about we find somewhere to sit and enjoy the view!”
We wandered around the lake edge until we found a small patch of grass.
“Damn….we should have brought a blanket!”
“It’s ok…come here”
He sat, dragging me with him and I snuggled between his legs. He wrapped his arms around me, his head resting on my shoulder and I let out a small sigh.
“What are you thinking about baby?”
I shook my head, that same cold feeling touching me again. I entwined my fingers in Ben’s, the sun glimmering on our wedding rings.
Maybe it was the peacefulness, the feeling of being the only ones here that was bringing thoughts into my head that I always tried to keep locked away.
“Michael..…talk to me.”
“I get scared sometimes. I have everything I’ve always wanted, a home, a family. I wonder how long everything can stay as perfect as it is now”
Ben’s fingers squeezed mine. He would be mulling over his thoughts before he spoke as he always did.
