OOM: Room #100 -- For Tommy Gavin

[ikissdhimbck]

[following this:]


It's late.

Dug hasn't shown up tonight, and the cats are curled up on Kate's bed sleeping soundly. She might have joined them already if Tommy hadn't said he'd be coming by.

'I just wanna see you tonight. That's all.'

She's curled up in one of her armchairs reading The Jungle Book, dressed comfortably but still very much clothed. Tommy won't be seeing her in her chemise, thank you. Her guns are laid out on the chest at the foot of her bed.

Comments

[ikissdhimbck]

When she's absolutely certain they're both sufficiently breathless, she breaks the kiss. She exhales against his wet lips, brushing his nose. Heavy doe eyes smirk down at him.

Her voice is husky and warm.

"Now, y'best get goin' before I make you apologize t'me proper."

She nips at his earlobe.

"Or we start another fight."

Six of one, half dozen of the other.

[gavin62truck]

Parts of his brain short circuit at the prospect.

"...." he says.

Congratulations, Kate, you've just rendered Tommy speechless.

After a moment of dazed blinking, drunk on her voice, he huffs out a chuckle and licks her taste off his lips.

"I'll gladly owe you a proper apology next time I see you. Hell, whenever you want one, you can get one outta me. We wouldn't even hafta fight."

[ikissdhimbck]

She grins.

"I'll remember that."

Then, placing her hands on his shoulders, she turns him toward the door.

"Now git!"

To that she adds a smack to his hindquarters.

[gavin62truck]

He barks out a cross between a yelp and a laugh at the swat.

"Okay, okay!"

As he opens the door to finally leave, he pauses and turns on the threshold to look at her -- she's still standing on top of the chest in that red silk robe, still grinning, and probably ready to give him another smack if he lingers.

He considers pushing his luck.

Nah. There'll be enough for later.


...Why is it just now dawning on Tommy that this cowgirl is going to be a real handful?

"See ya in that purple dress, honey."

Giving a little wave, he shuts the door behind him.
