MHA #2 | Tuesday Morning
For those of you playing at home: no, Annie had not yet found her engagement ring.
To be fair to her, she had found nine of the decoy boxes by now, which she thought was pretty damn impressive, thank you. She had them neatly lined up in the guest room, next to the previously well-organized white board that now boasted an increasingly untidy list of the found decoys' locations and of crossed-out rooms she'd searched. Organizing her thoughts had been a good idea, but as the search had worn on, Annie's patience with keeping things neat had frayed a bit.
That was also true in a more literal sense, as their apartment was a disaster by now. She'd pulled bookshelves out from walls, and books off of those shelves. Half of her and Diego's drawers were pulled out of their dressers and counters and sitting on the floor. She'd emptied the bathroom's medicine cabinet and left everything from her backup bottles of conditioner to the first aid kit sitting out, just so she didn't mistakenly retrace her steps.
It didn't help that she'd had pause her search to work yesterday for Memorial Day -- though on the bright side, she'd managed to confer with Maeve (read: whisper frantically at Maeve while they both made wistful faces next to various monuments in DC), and that had led to some untapped ground at her teammate's suggestion.
"Oh my God, I see a box!" Annie yelled from on top of a stepladder in their bedroom, shining an illuminated hand into an air vent. Nine decoys in, and you'd think the excitement would have worn off. And it had a little, in the sense that Annie didn't feel like she might faint every time she found one, at least. (The minute she found a box that made a noise when she shook it, though? Different story.)
[for the guy!]

Everyone was allowed to have shallow favorites, even when they loved the whole package completely. And Annie was fond of his arms. (And, now, his hair.)
no subject
He had his own shallow favorites as well. Her legs, namely. But there was a lot to be said over her reaction when he ducked his head down to mouth at her breasts, especially now that the beard was in play.
Keeping the beard had been the best idea.
no subject
But also. There was also this, and Annie was not subtle about showing how much she loved feeling his beard on all that sensitive skin. Between his mouth and the friction of his beard -- like, she'd liked this back when it had just been day-to-day stubble, and now she was kind of getting addicted to the way the beard felt.
And just in case he needed incentive to keep his hair, too, her hand tightened its grip encouragingly as Annie rolled her shoulders back to bring her breasts closer to him. Helpfully. In case he needed the assistance, you know.
no subject
"You feel so good," he murmured, nipping lightly at her breast.
no subject
That was even more evident as she squirmed needily under him, unable to stifle a soft moan as she used the hand in his hair to sort of encourage him towards that breast. "So do you. You have no idea."
He probably had some idea. She really hadn't been shy about it.

All she was doing was proving her point, really, but at least she tried.

Mostly just an excuse to say one of her new favorite words, yeah.

She was already well aware that he liked it when she used her words in bed, as it was.

(Give her time and see what desperation could breed, though.)
"My fiancé needs to get my pants off faster, then," Annie replied softly, trying to push his down a little more and wriggling under him to bring a foot up to help with that. It was not graceful, no, but it might actually get the job done.
no subject
Siiiiiggggggh. The bane of their existence.
At least when he finally did move he got his pants off quickly and was immediately reaching to get hers off all the way. "Much better."
no subject
To be fair, Annie had been giving herself the award for Hottest Boyfriend for well over a year now, so that tracked.
no subject
no subject
See, loophole! And also, Annie transparently loved hearing that word, too, especially from Diego.
no subject
no subject
One hand had already found its way to lightly rest on her chest, her fingertips idly tracing a little pattern there. But once she could reach, this seemed like a prime opportunity to confirm her suspicions about how much she was going to like Diego's hair growth in this application.
no subject
The same went for beard burn. Sigh.
no subject
Annie squirmed impatiently, breathing out a long sigh at how good that felt on her leg -- which, you know, boded well for the immediate future -- and lightly traced her fingers along the curve of one of her breasts as her other hand drifted down along her own hip, just as an outlet for the anticipation right now.
"You look so hot like this," she murmured, her voice completely unsteady (which was probably not surprising. For that matter, her opinion was not exactly a hot take, either, considering this was pretty much the basis for at least seventy-five percent of the Diego-focused dirty dreams and daydreams she'd had.)
no subject
He followed that up with a bite to her inner thigh, just to keep her on her toes.
no subject
And with everything closer in range, the hand that had traveled down her hip was now making its way into Diego's hair. She wasted no time in knotting her fingers in his hair and giving an encouraging little...pull. Not too bossy -- yet -- but definitely an attempt to communicate that Annie felt he could definitely speed up his trajectory here a bit. Please.
no subject
Just in case she needed incentive, Diego did stop teasing and put his mouth where she really wanted it. The hair pulling really did it for him, okay?
no subject
She didn't need verbal encouragement to pull harder on his hair, welcome though it was, but Annie did unconsciously check her strength as she gave a sharper tug. This time, she was sort of bossy about it, using her hand in his hair to try to drive his face a little more against her.
Hopefully that wasn't too much bossiness? (Was there such a thing?) She was absolutely not remotely worried about it at the moment, clearly.
