Daisy Johnson with dream!Lincoln Campbell
Kissing, Mention of Death | Complete Narrative
Daisy rolled over and smiled against his chest as a pair or arms wrapped around her and pulled her close. The sense of warmth and safety she had enveloped in that embrace was beyond anything she'd ever felt before. She'd loved other men; she'd thought she had, anyway, but the feeling that built in her chest when she looked up into those blue eyes eclipsed anything she'd ever had with anyone else. The team had become her family, but Lincoln Campbell had become her home.
"This cabin was a good idea," she mumbled as her lips met his for a lazy, lingering kiss. A feeling of pure contentment settled over her. Daisy had spent most of her life looking for something that was missing. Belonging. Purpose. A place to call home. She'd found all of those things in SHIELD, but even then, there had been this missing piece in her life that was Lincoln, especially after- She pushed the thought away. It didn't even bother her than in this moment she couldn't remember when he'd come back to Atlantis. In the midst of this dream, all the mattered to her was that he was here. Warm, solid, real. The hole in her heart that seemed to grow bigger each time she'd lost him was filled again and she never planned to let him ago.
The blaring of an alarm cut through her bliss and suddenly, Lincoln faded away. Daisy's eyes opened to the familiarity of her bedroom in Atlantis and the realization that it had only been a dream brought tears to her eyes. The cabin wasn't real. Lincoln wasn't here. Even knowing that, she would have stayed there forever if she could have. She could have had longer with the illusion if it hadn't been for the damn alarm that was still blaring. In a fit of grief and frustration, Daisy reached out a hand and quaked the clock across the room. She took a small amount of satisfaction in watching it smash to bits against the wall, ignoring the pain that always accompanied using her powers without her gauntlets on.
"Fucking Atlantis," she swore as she pushed herself up from the bed and started for the bathroom.
OOC NOTE: This obviously involves a brief use of Quake powers when she wakes up, so roommates and/or anyone in the closest rooms above, below, etc might have heard or felt something briefly.
