The brunette took a deep breath and then stretched as she exhaled. She blinked in the dim light and turned her head towards the chronometer. Kids are in class for two more hours, excellent.

She smiled to herself; this was a sensation she hadn't had in a long time. That cared-for feeling, the warmth and tenderness, the quiet after the storm. He was next to her, his arm draped over her belly. She gently moved her hand from Tom's shoulder to his head, stroking his hair, wondering briefly if he had something else to do. She hoped not.

Tressa realized that it might not happen again so she wanted to savor the moment.

Lasky smiled as he regarded Tressa in the dim lighting as he contemplated the last while it was even better then he had expected which was a plus, she was gentle with him and not demanding, also a plus.

He gently ran his fingers over her form as he draped his arm over her frame as he was in no rush to go anywhere. "That was...amazing." he said softly.

She smiled, brushing his hair from his face for no other reason than she could. "Yes you were," she replied. "Best lunch I've had in years," she added with a teasing grin.

"Well.. I'm no chef but I do what I can." he responded to her teasing with some of his own. "Besides.." he gently kissed her shoulder as he was laying behind her as he paused, wanting to savor his time with her.

She closed her eyes, aware of every part of her body that he touched, feeling his soft lips on her shoulder. Reaching back she stroked his head again, losing herself in the moment. She turned her head and kissed him softly.

Fives returned her kiss with one of his own as he gently held her against him, he found something worth fighting for, it was something he long thought buried beneath the snow of the highland mountains back home. "So.... what now?" he inquired, clearly wondering what was best for the two of them from here.

"I don't know, Tom," the doctor said, her dark eyes serious now. She snuggled closer to him. "My life is... rather complicated."

Tom smiled at her. "I have made your life even more complicated." he responded. "but then you and I have not known each other that long..." he smiled at her as he paused. "You once asked me not too long ago about my humanity.... I never lost it, despite my claims to the contrary and..... I like being wrong." he regarded her. "Our doubts are traitors and make us lose the good we oft might win by fearing to attempt." as he gently kissed her on the lips a second time. "We can try getting to know each other better....and take things slowly, see what happens, your life is complicated where mine is quite simple."

Tressa smiled, sighing with relief. "I would like to take it slow and get to know each other, between my position and the children I don't have much free time," she said, kissing him playfully on the nose. "But I do enjoy spending time with you."

"I'd like that very much." he replied as he smiled at her before running his fingers ever so gently over her jawline and chin. "You're always so generous for others but never for yourself." he then smiled. "So.... again?"

She raised an eyebrow and smiled at the thought that he wanted her again. Her body responded to his touch; she opened her mouth to answer him and she realized he was right, everyone else came first in her life. Now, in this moment, there was only Tressa and Tom.

In answer to his question she kissed him; deeply, passionately, sensuously. When she pulled away the heat between them was palpable.

Tom returned her kiss with one of his own, he had not been with a woman for far too long and he hoped that Tressa would not complain about his lack of experience. She looked into his eyes as she wrapped her arms around him.

"I should warn you, I could get used to this," she said.

"Mmm... I won't complain for I too, could become accustomed to this..." he smiled at her as he gently kissed her on the lips, and they gave themselves to one another again.
