much needed vacation

[midori_majutsu_shi]

The ride out to the beach house had been a breath of fresh air.  Reiko had actually been talked out of her usual yukatas, and was wearing a sleeveless blouse and a long skirt tied at her hip, dip died so the bottom hem was a deep emerald green, and it faded to a softer green at her waist, the sandals she wore had no heel.  On the way up they had stopped at a small mom and pop farm market. 

Reiko was currently trying to decide to get an apple pie, something she had yet to try while in America, or something that was shipped from Pennsylvania called a 'Shoo-fly pie'.  The woman at the bakery counter insisted that it was delicious but it just looked like a lot of sugar to her.

"What do you think Alistaire?"  She took a small sip from her water bottle as she glanced up to see which he'd prefer.  "Though the cherry pie looks good too."  She gave a small grin.  "Unless you think we've over done it already."  Though she had behaved, the mesh market bag she carried wasn't that full, she had bought veggies for a light salad, and two small quail to cook for dinner.  She was still debating on if she should do it as a hot pot, get it on the stove then unpack everything.  Alistaire had told her that when they got to the house everything would be set up so they'd have power and gas to cook with.

"And did you find a wine you liked?"  She trusted his taste with drinks.

When her back presses to the wall there is a very faint hint of fear in her eyes. Though it's gone just as soon as it was there, replaced with other emotions.

"Y-you know there's a risk I could really hurt you right? Are you willing to take it?" She doesn't want to even think about it unless he fully understands why she won't get this close to him in the city. There's just too much at risk with so many people around.

His pupils dilate at that expression of fear, before remembering that's the sort of thing he's trying to stop.

He draws his fingertips over her throat gently, letting the lip-movement of his words pressure against her. "I like touching things I'm not supposed to."

Her head tilts up as he lets his fingers dance over her throat. Her hand traces up to his hand entwining her fingers in his.

"Even when they're dangerous it seems." Her eyes close a moment. "Nearest neighbors should be out of range." She pulled him closer to her. "Dinner can wait."

"Yes, it can." He grabs her by the waist and picks her up, pinning her to the wall at eye level, kissing her fiercely.

She actually yelped when he picked her up, but wrapped her arms around his shoulders trusting he wouldn't drop her. His kiss was returned just as deeply.
