Dree closed her eyes and smiled as she stretched against the mattress. "Mmm.. I don't ever want to leave," she sighed. Next to her, El's fingers trailed a light touch up her arm and the brunette kissed the blonde's shoulder.
"If this is the new normal, I don't want to leave, either," El purred. Dree smiled at her wife's touch and turned her head.
"But we don't have the twins."
"Garrett and Beck will raise them like their very own," El retorted without missing a beat. Dree let out a deep belly laugh and rolled toward her wife.
"You'd miss them," she mumbled against El's neck. Dree rolled just a bit more and pinned El to the mattress. "I want some ice cream," she said, matter-of-factly.
El raised an eyebrow and smirked. "Ice cream?" Dree bit her lip and nodded. "What about dinner?" Dree shrugged and rolled off El and the bed, then started reaching for her clothes. El sat up and watched for a moment, shaking her head slightly. "Who are you and what have you done with my stuffy, under-sexed wife?"
Dree glanced up and smiled as she turned her bra right side out. El gave her head a shake and rolled to the side, heading for her own clothes that she hadn't gotten to before Dree jumped her.

As the two women stepped outside, Dree looked up at the darkening sky and smiled. The temperature was just one degree too warm, and there was a light breeze. The air was definitely thicker than they were used to, but she didn't mind.
"Are you sure you don't want some dinner?" El asked as she raised a hand up to shield her eyes. Even though the sun was setting, it was still awfully bright. Another few minutes and it would be completely behind the building ahead of them.
Dree reached for El's hand and smiled. "Are you hungry?"
"I could eat," El nodded. Dree rolled her eyes at the look El was giving her and tugged on the brunette's hand.
"All right, c'mon, Admiral," Dree huffed, turning them toward the main building.
A few minutes later, they were inside the main building and waiting for a table at the restaurant. Once seated, the two women glanced over the menu and watched the families enjoying a meal together, occasionally spying on other people's dishes.
It was a little harder for them to remember to watch themselves, as DG had suggested, but at that point, neither really cared what anyone else thought. They were enjoying themselves, for the first time in a very long time.
Besides, it wasn't like they were making out in the middle of the room like the two teens in the far corner.

Glancing at her watch, Dree noted that it was getting close to the time she'd planned to return for Max, and the girls decided that they couldn't have ice cream without him. So, once the dinner bill was settled, the girls stepped back outside and headed for the childcare facility.
