The hammock is still swaying back and forth, and Charlie clings to Gretchen, gasping for breath.

His patience has been rewarded. Give him a few mintues for his brain to start working again.

[youreweird]

She grins with self-satisfaction, nips his ear, and snuggles down onto his chest.

"Still think the ghost bells are magical?"

Yes, she's still wearing them, jut not much else.

[bloody_rockgod]

"They're--very--magical--or you are--" He kisses her hair.

[youreweird]

She beams and kisses his chest.

"Thanks, babe. You're not so bad yourself."

[bloody_rockgod]

He looks at her a moment, then laughs. "Wow. You're cocky all of a sudden."

[youreweird]

She straddles his hips and looks down at him, hands planted on his chest.

"Maybe a little. Do you mind it?"

[bloody_rockgod]

He shakes his head, beaming at her. "I like it."

[youreweird]

"Good. Well-behaved women rarely make history."

She smirks.

"Or make their boyfriends scream and beg for more."

[bloody_rockgod]

"That is so very true," Charlie says and sits up to kiss her.

[youreweird]

She kisses him back and hugs him tightly.

"Can't believe I really have you."

[bloody_rockgod]

"You do. I'm . . . I'm not exactly sure how wer're going to make this work, but we will."

[youreweird]

"Thanks, Charlie."

She smiles against his throat.

[bloody_rockgod]

He smiles too. "I just love you, that's all."

[youreweird]

She gasps and pulls back to look at his face and blushes faintly.

[bloody_rockgod]

"What?" He puzzles at her. "We've established that already, haven't we?"

[youreweird]

She's still staring.

"Just..."

She smiles like the sun's come out.

"I love you too, Charlie."

[bloody_rockgod]

He kisses her, holding her face in his hand. "Good," he whispers and kisses her again.
