Waking up in a giant feather bed, I stretch my arms above my body and turn my head to look at the curving, studded walls around me. There's not a single window here, and while that might have bothered me just a few hours ago, I've come to completely accept where I am. Nathan would call me naive. He'd call me a puppy, blindly following any stranger that held his hand out to me.
Maybe that's true, but no one would believe me back home even if I told them where I was or what I was doing. Not even the people who know what I can do and what I'm capable of. I'm the dreamer, head in the clouds. Sometimes literally.
Things have not been so easy for me lately. I nearly blew up New York City. I lost my memory and my last girlfriend in a future that I subsequently erased from existence. I met my father, a man who I thought was dead for over a year, had him purge what made me special from my very soul, and watched him die. Luckily, the illicit serum he had been working on restored what I thought I'd lost, even if it did not save me from my current strained relationship with my family.
For the moment, though, that doesn't matter. I'm grinning as I climb out of bed, locate my shirt on the floor and head out into a circular promenade so large that I actually can't remember where the stairs are. This particular portion of my current homes makes the idea of a feather bed inside a little blue wooden box less strange.
But even that can't compare to the man I'm traveling with.
"Uh... Doctor!" Or that I can even be lost inside a six foot square shed.

Thank you LJ for being such a BITCH !!!
Date: 2010-03-11 04:06 am (UTC)I must admit to myself I am a little surprised by the kiss. Those soft lips against my own. I had been expecting it yes but this was a sudden surprise. I was use to my fellow partners forming an attraction with me, snogging me and so forth. I can sense Peter's embarrassment as he pulls back, his cheeks flushed perfectly.
I didn't mind the kiss nor was I offended.
I only look down at him, raising an eyebrow slightly.
:( BOO LJ
Date: 2010-03-11 04:17 am (UTC)He's just...going to let it go. So I can let it go too. Even if it burned. There was something about the Doctor -- far beyond him being an alien and having two hearts evidently -- that made him irresistible.
"Just...a thank you. For this. And letting me stay. With you. Here." Ugh.
BOO COMPUTER AS WELL !!!
Date: 2010-03-14 11:57 pm (UTC)"That's quite alright" I smile at him.
I gently keep my hand along his cheek. I don't want to pull back anytime soon.
*cling* And at such a good part!
Date: 2010-03-15 12:44 am (UTC)I place my hand over his hand and slip my fingertips between his fingers in the soften places between the joints. He feels like fire and he's making me feel like fire.
I turn my face up to look at him.
He's so strange. So charming. I want...
I want him. I hope to God he's not telepathic.
=)
Date: 2010-03-15 03:05 am (UTC)I can hear his heart pounding within my ears. His dark eyes looking up at him once again.
Leaning down I gently press my forehead against his own.
no subject
Date: 2010-03-15 03:12 am (UTC)I lean further into his touch and mirror it with my own. My eyes are closed as I tug at his wild, wonderful hair. This could not be a more perfect day.
Even if it ends with strange nuzzling and fully, happy bellies.
And now I have a nasty head cold that's been killing me all week =(.
Date: 2010-03-19 02:43 am (UTC)After a moment I slowly wrap my arms around him, keeping him even closer to me as I hold him.
These are the moments I enjoy most. The simple, gentle ones.
