"Well that does it.. were officially home owners!" Ron said with a smirk of accomplishment. Flippin up his collar and crackin a beer he reached out to swat Lina on her behind.
"Well now," Lina jumped feisty "I'm just gonna have to make you a big ol glass of sweet tea in my new kitchen.. in those butt huggin undies you like so much!"
She pressed in between his legs sittin on the new counter tops. Breathing him in as she had done so many times before, this time it felt different. He really pulled her into his arms, nodding his head forward looking into her eyes.
Taking a swig he said "Now you can focus on getting stable, after everything we helped each other through. You're good at landing us squarely when things get messed up. I appreciate that."
"I suppose I can do that. I could also get busy findin a hidin place for us. Tucked far, far away into the hills... hmmmmm" she said gazing into their future.
"That sounds like a fine idea, pretty lady!"
"You're just gonna have to be hands on with me honey. I got a lil bit to learn about building structures and prepping..."
He started to huff a laugh "A lot, baby. I'm not sure you understand what you're gettin in to.."
She laughed at him slyly with a grin,
"Well, I'm up for the challenge! It's just no one has ever made space or time for us to practice all this in real life... but YOU did it, with this house. With your tools. That's what makes you different. It's not just talk or playin video games."
He softened his look at her and continued to listen...
".. now I know what you've been doin with our time. And I love it. I'm sorry for gettin so angry. Just..
THANK YOU "
A few tears welled up in her eyes that said it all, even though she could barely choke out the words.
He smiled at her again, this time with his eyes like she was so fond of. He pulled her face up to meet his lips. She could feel him smile as he kissed her, which made her happy.
"Alright dear. Now that you have a castle, you can build your kingdom!!"
"Yes Sir! Now I can be gypsy medicine woman. Be my rogue and pilfer my supplies for me, will ya?"
"No, no my lady. You have your own supply now. Anything, as you wish!"
"You mean my own garden for canning, drying and extracting?"
"Yup. And I even have a special place for you to store all your lovely gifts!"
"Your full of surprises! What about some baby pups? We can't go foraging with out them.."
"Yes, its time for that too. One each, Boy and Girl."
This thought got Lina heated up quickly. Everything romantic was going to her head and putting her in the wet zone lately. In some ways she saw her self as the pup. A quick learn, astute and attentive. Eager for attention and hands on. She could barely contain herself, tail wagging and all. And he, her master. Thorough and calm, but a firm hand.
He would show her what he wants from her. And she would work diligently to get it.
For which they both would be rewarded... But building trust was the key.
"Lina.. What you thinkin about babe?" She heard as she turned back to his gaze..
"Oh, what we'd do with the back yard for the dogs.. Put in a dog run?"
"I'll tell you who's running!!" He said with another swat on her butt that sent them off chasing each other around the house.
Scattering a few pictures and sliding across hardwood floors, Lina found the box of Nurf balls just in time to assault back. With each throw she deliberated as Ron kept jumping to avoid the onslaught.
"Well, I need action. Something to keep me sharp on my toes.."
FWAP! She hit Ron's leg, now hiding behind the pantry door.
"Damnit. I gotta work on my observation skills."
FWAP!! FWAP!! Two hit hard on the pantry door again..
"Come and get me ...Chicken!!... "
"You asked for it!! .." He yelled, picking up a few of the discarded balls. Zeroed in on his target he hit her boobs and tackled her onto the stairs, pinning her down.
Almost out of breath, Ron asked "Is that what you want? Some new responsibilities?" Nuzzling into the side of her neck.
Tilting her head back she buzzed "Mmm hmmm. Little ones that give us fuzzy feelings and shit. Yup. The whole mess and all."
"Well then, I can help you with that." He said enthused.
She squirmed with delightful anticipation as he began to slide his hands under her shirt and eagerly mouth at her cupid lips. She started to feel the bulge in his pants and grabbed it to come closer as she spread her legs.
