Somewhere in Australia, Apparently | Saturday Morning

[defenderofdesmoines]

So, yesterday had been kind of a disaster, and really, Annie was still kicking herself for not seeing that coming. It wasn't her fault, exactly -- she'd moved past that line of thought -- but she absolutely had gotten caught up in the idea of planning and throwing this birthday party without really considering what Diego (and Five, but Diego was her bigger concern right now) actually would want.

Which was why they were now waking up to 600 acres of privacy. Annie had called in every favor she had, thrown her name around way more than she liked to do, and spent more money than she wanted to think about in the wake of the cakes hitting the ground. And while her assistant had promised her that what she'd secured for them (even on such late notice) was awesome, and they'd obviously had to trek up here last night before collapsing into bed, Annie was still kind of amazed once she woke up enough to look out the windows.

"Wow," she breathed as she sat up to look at the view, trying not to wake Diego yet -- they needed to talk about yesterday, still, but she also wasn't gonna deny the guy his sleep. Not after last night.

And the view would be here. Along with what looked like miles and miles and miles of quiet.

"Not like us at all," Diego said. "We've never spent all day in bed before."

[defenderofdesmoines]

"I mean, we're also usually pretty creative when we get out of bed, too," Annie pointed out, leaning up for a kiss and simultaneously sliding her hands under Diego's shirt to start pushing it up. Helpfully.

[knife_bender]

Diego lifted his arms up to help that along. It was unfortunate to have to break the kiss to get his shirt off all the way, but it was a sacrifice he had been willing to make.

As soon as shirt was tossed aside he was kissing her again, reaching out to work her pants down.

They never did the clothes removal thing in a logical way, did they?

[defenderofdesmoines]

They definitely didn't, but this was much better than they usually did, at least.

Annie shifted her hips slightly to help him with her pants, already reaching for Diego's as well, because pants -- usually their enemy! -- could be taken care of without breaking the kiss again. And in fact, Annie was going to give his lower lip a little bite, just to ensure no one wanted to stop kissing right now.

Priorities.

[knife_bender]

Diego groaned softly, pressing himself against Annie. Which did not really helpful in the mutual clothing removal, but they'd get there.

You know...eventually.

[defenderofdesmoines]

That groan was exactly the kind of reaction Annie had been looking for, and it just made her want to press up against Diego as she deepened the kiss with a soft little noise of her own.

Though she did also work her hands around to push his pants down, taking her time to appreciatively run her hands down over his ass. Just keeping her eye on the clothing-removal ball, that's all.

[knife_bender]

"Fuck," Diego murmured, kicking off his pants. He pushed Annie's pants down as far as he could before going to push her shirt up. Patience? What was patience?

[defenderofdesmoines]

Annie wriggled her pants off and stepped out of them, holding her arms up so her shirt could come off.

And since there had to be a brief kissing pause, it meant Annie could tease. "You sure are eager to get into this bath."

Ignore how throaty her voice had gotten. And also how eager she clearly, obviously was.

[knife_bender]

He smiled as he tossed her shirt aside. "Well it's a big bathtub."

Totally explained the eagerness, for sure.

[defenderofdesmoines]

"And it has jets," Annie told him, widening her eyes as though that was, obviously, why she was eager, too.

Nothing to do with the appreciative once-over she was giving him as she moved over to carefully get into the tub, trailing a hand down Diego's arm lest he have any ideas about not following her.

Because that seemed likely, sure.

[knife_bender]

Better safe than sorry!

But it was unnecessary, considering he was following right after her. "Jets and bubbles? Might just spend the day in here."

[defenderofdesmoines]

"You're not worried about us getting all wrinkly?" Annie wondered, letting out a happy sigh as she slid into the tub.

Belatedly, she realized she should have put her hair up, but she also had a feeling it probably wasn't really going to matter, anyway.

[knife_bender]

"I'm not worried if you're not worried," he said, sliding into the tub next to her. "If you're offended by it I can get out."

[defenderofdesmoines]

"Don't you dare," Annie replied, already pressing herself into his side and leaning in for a kiss now that he was back in range. "I bet you'd be hot all pruney, anyway."

Fucking ridiculous.

[knife_bender]

Diego didn't know about that, but he was willing to accept the compliment. He wasn't about to give up kissing to say anything, anyway.

This was already enough to make him wish they had a bigger bathtub at the apartment.

[defenderofdesmoines]

It was pretty cool how much room they had in here. Enough that Annie wasn't content to just nestle herself against his side, and was already sliding her legs out against Diego's, just enjoying both the touching and the fun of being slippery.

One of her arms wound its way up around his neck as she kissed him, slow and sweet in a way that probably wasn't really going to last all that long.

[knife_bender]

It was nice, being in the warm water with the bubbles and everything. Diego wrapped one of his arms around Annie's waist, sliding his hand along her skin. "This was a great idea."

[defenderofdesmoines]

"The tub? Getting away from Fandom? You having a birthday?" Annie prompted between kisses, smiling. "Yes to all of the above."

She skimmed a hand down his chest, just keeping her touch light and exploratory and affectionate for now.

[knife_bender]

"Mostly the first one," he murmured. "And the bubbles. I'm a big fan of the bubbles."

[defenderofdesmoines]

"You look cute in bubbles," Annie decided, spotting a button off to the side of the tub and gesturing to it. "If you push that, we'll have jets, too."

Annie would have been more than happy to push the button herself, but she was now very busy kissing Diego's neck, you see.

[knife_bender]

The neck kissing really wasn't helping Diego's focus, but he had enough to lean over and press the button.

"Now we have the full experience," Diego joked, tilting his head back a little to encourage more of the neck kissing.

[defenderofdesmoines]

"Almost," Annie murmured next to his ear, pressing a kiss behind it before dipping her head to bite at his neck, her fingertips threading lightly up into his hair.

[knife_bender]

"Yeah?" Diego asked, lazily sliding his hand along Annie's waist and hip. "What's the full experience?"

[defenderofdesmoines]

"I think we'll know it when we see it," Annie replied vaguely, smiling against his neck and floating her legs across Diego's lap. The buoyancy was kind of fun, she was discovering. "But this is really nice. Relaxing."

Probably even more relaxing if you weren't unfailingly attracted to your naked boyfriend and able to keep your hands off him, but relaxing nonetheless.

[knife_bender]

Diego ducked his head down for another kiss, sliding his hand over to one of Annie's legs. You know, just in case she had any ideas about moving them.

If they took two seconds to stop touching each other they'd probably also appreciate the view. Not likely to happen, however.
