It was an early satruday morning after dosing off in her office after her late night Astronomy class, Aiera sleepily made her way home in one of the Hogwarts horseless carages for the weekend.

"Aaron?" Aiera called out as she stepped into the front door of their quaint two story house towards the end of Reldington Drive. "Aaron are you home darling?" She shut the door behind her with a soft click.

A sudden and excited barking began to sound commign up from their bedroom. and with a rusty flash of fur Demitri was racing down the stairs, nearly falling over his paws as he ran to meet his mistress. With a chuckle she knelt down to meet her furry companion's licks and nuzzles as she scooped him up. "How's my buddy doing hm?" She said as she gave him a kiss on the head. "Is Aaron still asleep up there baby?" The fox gave a slight yup that she couldn't quite translate, but she was assuming he ment yes.

Checking the clock on the wall she sighed. It was only eight thirty, he probably was still asleep. Well, why not surprise him?

Placing Demitri back on the floor she stood up and made her way tto the kitchen. She was hungry anyway, so why not just make a nice breakfast for the both of them?

After first putting on a pot of coffee she made herself busy in the fridge. For some reason she always liked to cook without magic. To her it just tasted better when done properly.

Two arms wrapped themselves around Aiera's stomach and a pair of lips brushed her neck lightly. Aaron's morning greeting.

"Hey there love. Fall asleep at school again? I really wish ye'd send an owl when you do that. Wasn't too worried though, not like it hasn't happened before." Aaron said teasingly. "Another lonely night for me..." He put on a fake pout.

Taking her hands, Aaron pulled her gently into the dining room and sat her down at the table. Then he went back into the kitchen.

"Ye've been up all night, ye don't need to make your own breakfast. I'm going to make you something, don't move a muscle." Aaron called out.

He began pulling random things out of the fridge. Eggs, Milk, Chocolate, Bread. Who knew what could be made with all these ingredients? Probably something disgusting however.

"Sweet Merlin!" Aiera cried out, nearly dropping the carton of eggs as she felt his arms around her waist. For one who was fairly observant and noticed most things, Aarons suddden apperanced starteld her.

However things changed as her skin felt a warm tingle of his lips on them. "Mmmm..." She murmured as she seemed to surender the fridge to him. "I'm sorry Aaron... I just... I dunno what's been going on with me recently..." She sighed as she lay back in his arms slightly. She would never say it out loud, but she was exausted, more tired than she had been in a long time.

She moved though, greatful for the chance to sit, as Aaron began to take over her task. Her task? She stood back up. "But I'm compleatly fine and am awake enough to make breakfast for us." She said stolledly as she retrieved the bread from the bread box. "If I leave you too it it will be more of a weird... something, than an actual breakfast." But he did have an idea with the chocolate chips.

"Chocolate chip pancakes..." She said with a smile as she took the eggs from him, directing him to turn around, taking everythign back to the fridge. "Perhaps with some fried eggs, and some bacon and toast." She said with a smile. "How does that sound?"

"Aw, I guess I don't get to create some sort of mutant chocolate bread monster in our kitchen. Too bad, I hear those mutant bread monsters are quite tasty." Aaron said, laughing. He had expected her to come help anyway, that was the way they lived. Everything together. They were always there for each other, no matter what the situation. There had been some bad times, but overall, they lived a happy life.

"I have to admit though, yer chocolate chip pancakes are to die for. Definitely better than me mutant bread would've been." He said, giving her another kiss before returning the food to the fridge. "And I'll help you make them. I have ta learn sometime, why not now, from the love of my life."

To be honest, Aaron had noticed that Aiera seemed a bit tired recently. He'd thought of bringing it up one night, but had figured it would pass. However...

"Love, are you sure ye're alright. Ye've seemed a bit tired for the past while, and I was just starting ta get a tad worried. Call me paranoid, but I want ta have ye around fer a long long time, so I have ta keep ye healthy." He asked cautiously.

"Exactly why I'm the one who does the cooking." She said with a slight laugh as he mentioned his mutant bread creature. That would have been an interesting episode indeed, and not that she wouldn't have enjoyed it but...

"Hm?" She heard Aaron's question. "No, I'm quite fine dear. Just all these late night classes and all, having to still be here durring the day for you and at night for my students." She said with a smile as she set the eggs down on the counter and wrapped her arms around Aaron's neck. "Just have to adjust again. So don't worry. I promise I'll be fine alright?" She said before giving him a peck on the lips, pulling away with almost a teasing smile.

"Now, if you would grab the bacon from the bottom drawer of the fridge I would be ever so thankful." She said as a finger trailed across his neck. She hadn't changed too much since Univirsity, well maybe she had. Even though she was still her old flirtatious self, it was reserved for one person and one person alone.

Aaron nodded reluctantly and tucked his concerns to the back of his mind. But only temporarily. This wasn't just a petty concern of his, he was genuinely worried. However... now wasn't the time. Perhaps after breakfast...

"Very well love. But ye know, ye don't always have to be here for me in the daytime... nights are nice as well..." Aaron said perhaps hinting at something... perhaps not. "And the students well... the little rascals don't need a professor all the time... not like I need you. But hey, if I can learn ta share with them, ye can learn ta take a break every once in awhile. We need a vacation." He said finally with a sigh. "Somewhere nice... with nobody to bother us. Freedom to do whatever we want."

He walked over to the fridge and pulled out the bacon.

"Look at me, bringing home the bacon." Aaron said with a crazy grin. "Sorry, pardon the bad jokes." He waved the bacon in the air a bit. "So... how grateful did ye say ye'd be fer the bacon?"

"A vacation." She said with a smile as she slid her arms from around his neck. "Sounds wonderful really. But I promise I'll try to relax sometime. Honest." She said turning her attention to making the pancake batter.

Upon hearning Aaron's attempt joke she rolled her eyes with a reluctant smirking smile. But as he started waving it in the air s if teasing her it turned into more of a winning grin. "Well, if you want breakfast I would give it here if I were you." She said with a laugh as she made her way over to him. "After all I can't possibly cook it if it's in your hands can I?" She couldn't and that was the truth. However if he wanted to play she was more than equal to it.

"But come on honey..." She said with a small pout in a pleading tone as she rested her hands on his chest to run them up around his neck. She looked up at him with hopeful eyes. "Please can I have the bacon..." She asked as her fingers ran though his hair and along the back of his neck. She would have tried to tickle him, but that was impossible. She was the ticklish one, not him.

Aaron resisted Aiera as long as he possibly could... about 3 seconds. Tossing the bacon onto the kitchen counter, he wrapped her up in his arms and kissed her deeply.

"Mhm... you really wanted that bacon didn't you. Too bad I'm not sure if I want to let ye go. Not really that hungry anyway. Maybe we could just stand here like this for awhile." Aaron said, realizing however, that neither of them had eaten anything since the night before. "Well... I guess not. I love you, every part of you. But right now, your stomach is trying to communicate with me telepathically. It says..." He scrunched up his face, pretending to exert his nonexistant telepathic powers. "It says that it wants some food. It says that if it doesn't get food, it'll be grumpy and tired. And we don't want that now do we?" He kissed her forehead lightly. "But what do you think? Can it wait just a wee bit? I mean, I missed you last night, so I want to make up for it."

He gently rubbed her back, trying to relieve some of the tension he knew must be building. All these late nights and early mornings had to be taking their toll on her.

She burried her face in his chest as Aaron wrapped his arms around her, but seconds later she found there lips together in a sensation that she didn't realize how much she had missed. "I love you..." She whispered with a smile just as their lips were parting.

As he spoke she once more burried her face in his chest, his scent more pleasing than any breakfast cooking. "Well," she murmured. "If you can hear my stomach, then you should be able to tell that my heart is shouting even louder." Would she be able to postpone breakfast for other things? For him? Of course.

She sighed as his hands ran over her back. "So what exactly did you have in mind hmmm?" She asked looking up at him with her usual teasing grin.

"Oh, I don't know exactly." Aaron said, hands continuing their roaming journey across her back. "I'm all about you right now. Whatever you want, I'll give it to ye." His left hand danced lightly across the back of her neck. "Of course... I could encourage you towards something..." He moved in to kiss her again, but stopped just short. "But you are probably too tired from work and all. Maybe I'd better not..." He withdrew his hands from her back and started to pull away. However, the ruse was up now, and his arms wrapped back around her.

"Or maybe I will anyway." He said, kissing her again. "After such a hard night at work, you need to be pampered, loved, and you should have everything you want." He gazed into her eyes. "So tell me love, what do you want?"

"What do I want?" She murmured as her head lay on his chest, her eyes closed. Her fingers curled into his shirt slightly.

She looked up at him, meating his gaze. "I want you..." She whispered. "I want to be Mrs Lunaran." She smiled as she reached up, running a hand though his hair. "We never even had a proper honeymoon Aaron... Not after what happend with Azkaban and all... And then afterwards.. it was just... Life. Working, living day to day even somedays never getting to see you." Her voice was strong as she spoke though, even if her smile lost some of its perk.

"I just want to be with you. We've been married... three years now? And we've never had any time to just be alone but for weekends like this occasonaly." The orriginal idea of a vacation for just the two of them at first seemed a tempting offer, but more and more it seemed to be something she needed.

"I love you so much Aaron... Merlin, I don't know what I would ever do without you. But it just seemed that sometimes... Sometimes... I don't know. I just feel so empty. Whenever you're gone... I just feel like somethings missing, but I don't know what it is." She sighed.

"I know I probably seem crazy though. I know I sound crazy." She said with a laugh. "Just hearing myself..."

Aaron smiled and grabbed her hands. Kissing each one lightly he then looked into her eyes.

"You have been Mrs. Lunaran since the day we first met. Maybe we didn't always know it, but it is true. And even though we never had a honeymoon, I hope I have always been a good husband. I try my best, but sometimes it feels like we don't get ta see each other as much as we'd both like." Aaron's eyes twinkled slightly, a sure sign of a brewing plan. "What if we call in sick? Next week. We could say we have... some disease. And then we could go somewhere, just us. Or we could even stay here, and just be with each other."

He kissed her forehead lightly.

"What is it?" He asked. "What is missing? I want you to have everything. I would give anything to you."

"You've always been wonderful." She said stolidly as she shook her head. This was nothing of his fault, and she sure as hell didn't want him thinking that. "You've been nothing but wonderful to me even after all I've put you through Aaron."

She had to smile though as he said they could call in sick next weel. "Or you can just tell them I've had a bloody mental break down and you have to take care of me... Wouldn't be too far from the truth." She let out a scoffing laugh.

"What do I want?" What did she think was missing? No, she couldn't say anything now. It would just be.. selfish. Just because she wanted something doesn't mean he did as well. She sighed and shook her head. "I just want to sleep... In a propper bed for once in a long while."

By 'proper bed' she ment curled up in Aaron's arms. Back in hogwards she had to stay in the Head of House Room While Aaron slept in the professor's wing. She had always found it hard to sleep without him by her side.

Besides, maybe everything was just tricks played by a tired mind. "I just want to sleep right now... In your arms... Please?"

"Of course love." Aaron said quietly. He knew that she hadn't told him what she wanted. He could always tell with her. But he wouldn't press it, she'd tell him when she was ready. "You go on in there, and I'll clean up here. We'll just have breakfast for dinner today." He gave her a gentle push towards the bedroom, then turned to the kitchen counters. He could clean it up... but it wasn't that important. He shook his head and turned around and picked Aiera up, carrying her in his arms like he used to do. Then he carried her to the bedroom and laid her down on the bed.

"Alright love... This is the official beginning of our honeymoon. This weekend, there will be no working, only fun and love. And on Monday, well, nevermind. Let's not think about Monday, let's think about us, right now, together." He said, sitting beside her on the bed. He leaned down and kissed her forehead, then her nose, and finally her lips.

Aiera practicaly fell into Aaron's arms as he picked her up, her arms wrapped around his neck, her face burried in his chest. She almost fell asleep on the way up too, and was actualy awakened when he set her on the bed. "Hm?" She murmured sleepily as she sat up. She knew exactly where she was just by the scent. There was her scent. and it was mingled with Aaron's.

She was safe, at home, with him.

She pushed her shoes off of her feet, not even bothering to change in to proper sleepwear as she curled up on the bed. "Just a weekend?" She murmured. She wanted more time alone with him than that. But her eyes fluttered open as she felt lips on her forhead, then on her nose.

As his lips met hers her hands reached out to his chest wantonly. She wanted his arms around her tight, the feel of his breath on her hair, the touch of his hands on her skin, the scent of his hair... "I love you so much Aaron..." She murmured as she twined her legs around one of his, alowing her to curl into him.

"Gotta start somewhere love." Aaron said softly. "If a weekend is all we have right now, that's a good start."

He slid into the bed beside her without moving away from her. He didn't have to change clothes, since he was still in his sleepwear. But he knew from experience, and not a good one, that sleeping in your clothes wasn't very comfortable.

"Come on love. Let's get you out of those clothes, you don't want to sleep in those." He said. "Where do you keep your pajamas? I have no idea where things are in here." He wrapped his arms around her. "Or you could just get out of these clothes and stay that way if ye want." He smiled and kissed her again.

"I think the latter sounds a bit better." She murmured with a smile as she began to work on the buttons of the dress shirt she wore under her robes which had been disguarded in the kitchen. Tossing the shirt aside she began on th epants which beign half aslee were a little more difficuly.

However they were gotten rid of easy enough as were her socks, and sheslid under the sheets of the bed, snuggling as close to Aaron as she could. "Thanks for staying with me..." She murmured sleepily as she looked at him, a warm yet sleepy smile on her face. She knew he peobably wasn't tired after sleeping all night, but she did enjoy the company.

However dressed in nothing but well, black lace she almost didn't feel like sleeping just yet. But she wasn't going to say anything. She just nuzzled closer, trailing her fingers along his chest over his shirt((Assuming he's wearnig one)).

Aaron just watched as the love of his life sleepily undressed herself. She was so beautiful. He slipped his arms around her after she slid back into the bed.

"No problem love. There's no place I'd rather be than in bed with you." He rubbed her bare arms softly. "Yer skin is so wonderful love, how do ye keep it so amazingly soft?" He kissed her shoulders, then her neck.

Aaron got the feeling that Aiera, though tired, wasn't quite ready to sleep yet.

"Not so tired love? Or are you just wanting... something." He asked slyly. "Maybe a bit more of... this?" He kissed her neck again, a little more passionately. "Or some of this?" He ran his hands across her back lightly.

"Mmmhhmm..." She murmured as she felt his lips at her neck. So he was getting idea's. Wonderful. "Both if you dont mind..." She said as she kissed his cheek, the only thing available to ehr at the moment. "And perhaps a little more as well." She said loking up at him with a glint in her eye and grin on her face.

----------------------------

Pulling the covers back up around them she curled closer to Aaron as if never wanting to leave his side. And she didn't. For some reason she felt better now, as if nothing else in the world mattered. Rolling over to face him she kissed his bare chest. "I love you Aaron... I love you so much." She sighed. And she could never say it enough either.

Maybe now... Now she could tell him... But what if... No, he wouldn't get angry at her. Why whould he? There was nothing wrong with just asking was there? "Aaron... Have you ever felt as if something was just... I dunno... just missing?" She asked warily as her eyes remained fixed on his chest, unsure of how he woudl respond.

Aaron saw the glint in Aiera's eyes and wrapped her up in his arms. A great start to their honeymoon in his opinion.

-------------------------------------

Aaron's arms were still wrapped around Aiera when she turned to face him. His hands moved up to her hair and he smiled.

"I love ye more." He said, and kissed her forehead lightly.

When she began staring at his chest while she talked, Aaron gently lifted her chin and looked into her eyes.

"I know me chest is attractive, but I love being able to look into yer eyes when we talk." He said. "Now... no matter what it is, you can ask me. I want ye ta be happy, so ask whatever ye want. As fer yer question... I don't really know what ye mean. I have you, and if that was all I ever had I'd be happy. However... what are you thinking about?"

"I... I was just thinking that..." She sighed. "Aaron... I know this sounds selfish... But... I..." How could she say it with out sounding stupid? Like some simpering woman who needed to validate her life through someone or something else?

"I... I just love working with the children at school Aaron.. You know that... And I was thinking..." She looked down at his chest again before looking back up. "And please don't be angry..." She stammered. "But... What if we... You know.. Started our own family...?"

Recently Aiera had been thinking about having a baby, someone to hold, cheerish, and love. "I... I'm sorry if it seems a bit... forward." She said, falling silent.

Aaron planted a huge kiss on Aiera's forehead. It was a bit of a surprise, but he would never be angry.

Wow... Am I ready for this? Aaron thought to himself, eyes glazing over slightly. I didn't even really have a father, how can I be one?

"Aiera, I... I don't know what to say." He stammered. "I'm not angry, by any means, so don't be afraid of that. It's just... I never even had a father... How can I be one?" He put a hand on her cheek and smiled. "But... I am willing ta give it a try if ye want to love. I'm flattered that ye'd want a family with me ta be quite honest." He nodded. "I love kids... that explains the whole Professor occupation and all... maybe this'll be grand! Yeah! I think it will." He gave Aiera a hug and then rested his chin on her head. "Hm... you're a good chinrest. If ye can be a good chinrest, I'm sure I can be a good father. Right?"

"There's no one else I would ever want to be with Aaron... No one else I would rather give my life to." She said with a smile as he hugged her close.

She hadn't even bothered to doubt his abilities of being a father. After all he was always so loving with her, and ther ewas nothing in her mind that said he would be any different to a child, their child.

She gave him a slight thump on the chest as he called her a chin rest. "I am not a chin rest, and if you continue to use me as such, I think I shall have to find sutable punishment for that." She teased. "But yes Aaron... I think you would be a wonderful father." She said looking up at him with a smile of pure love and addoration. She had always wanted to be a mother, even when she was little.

"Thank you for everything Aaron..." She had wanted a world and he was willing to give it to her. A family, a child... A chance to be a mother. She nuzzled against him lovingly as she shut her eyes. "I love you so much..."

"Ooh, punishment eh? Didn't know ye were into that, but hey, if ye want kinky I can give ye kinky." Aaron teased her, twisting her words as he always enjoyed doing.

He removed his chin from her head though. Turning over onto his back, he stared up at the ceiling and nodded. He was starting to like the idea. He loved kids, other wise he wouldn't be a Professor. So why not have one of his own? How hard could it be to take care of a kid? Probably fairly difficult, but Aaron was quite in love, and this was one of those times were love had blinded him to how difficult young children can be.

"I still love ye more." Aaron whispered softly, stroking Aiera's head lightly. He was tired again, but then, what were honeymoon's for except fun and sleeping.

"Oh, don't tempt me love." She said with an almost sinister chuckle. "You know quite well what I can do," She smiled up at him, her eyes still shut. "I still have all my tricks and all my trapings hidden away where only I can find them." Her secret stash of items and clothing still lay hidden away disguised as a dark trunk of books.

But if he wanted a little of that... He would have to wait. She needed a propper sleep for once in a few weeks. And with everything out now, she felt surprisingly relaxed. He wanted to have a baby... They were going to be parents... She culdn't help but smile as she drifted off.

She would be hungry when she woke, but for now she was the happiest witch alive. Nothing could dampen her spirits now, nothing. She began her usual twitchign as she drifted off, a finger here, a foot there... snuggled tight against Aaron's side the entire time.

As Aiera snuggled against him, Aaron began to doze off as well. It wasn't so much that he was tired, more that he simply could think of nothing he'd rather do. So he fell asleep pressed against Aiera, feeling the beating of her heart, and the occasional twitch of her body.

Hours later, Aaron awoke. Aiera remained asleep, like a rock in fact. She'd rolled over just a bit, and Aaron took this chance to slip carefully out of the bed, being certain not to wake her up. She needed the sleep. But she also needed food, and that was where he was heading off to.

Silently walking into the kitchen, Aaron approached the counter where all of the food had been left out.

Chocolate chip pancakes eh? I can do that. How hard can it be? He thought to himself.

He searched around and finally found a recipe for regular pancakes and just figured he'd add chocolate chips at the end. Didn't seem to hard, so he got to work. And for his limited skills with cooking, he was doing pretty well. In fact, he managed to cook the pancakes with no incident and even got them arranged on two plates. This was a momentous day... Aaron had cooked something other than PB&J!

Aiera awoke what felt like days later to a warm scent. She rolled over to where Aaron would have been with a smile, her eyes shut sleepily. "Morning love. What ti-" She reached out but he wasn't there. Her eyes snapped open. Where was he? And why could she smell.. Pancakes? "Oh bloody hell!" Bolding out of bed to find herself in her birthday suite she quickly grabbed a bath robe and tied it around her waist and grabbed her wand on the dresser.

She rushed down the stairs to see Aaron... in front of the stove... Cooking, apparently without a hitch...

She sighed and sank into a chair, her wand falling with a slight clatter to the tile floor. "Lovely wake up my dear..." She mummbled. "What time is it anyway?"

Aaron quickly set a plate of the pancakes in front of her.

"Course it is a good wake up. Now... I'd eat those quickly, I'm not sure how I made them correctly in the first place so who knows what might happen later." He laughed. "As fer what time it is... it's 2 in the afternoon. Just think of this as a late lunch. I'm taking ye ta dinner later, so ye better get all that energy back. After dinner, anything goes love."

He sat down across from her and picked up his fork.

"Maybe I'd better take the first bite, just in case they try to bite back or something. I read the recipe, so they should be alright, but with my cooking who knows?"

"Well well." She said with a smile of approval. I fall aslee and the world goes topsy turvy 'eh?" She said teasingly as she stood to give Aaron a quick kiss before sitting back down.

But it was two in the afternoon? Ah, so she had at least gotten a decent amount of sleep finaly, it helped to be home. She loved Hogwarts dearly, but it wasn't her home anymore. Her home, her place was with Aaron. And in the castle, as much as she wanted to she couldn't have that...

Usualy for pancakes she woudl have used either cinniman and sugar or malpe syrup... However chocolat chip pancakes... They called for something else. With a quick step over to the cupboard she grabbed the chocolate syrup.

"Talk about a sugar fix to start the day hm?" She chuckled as she drizzled the syrup on to her pancakes lightly. To much would just ruin them. "But Aaron." She said with a devilish smile. "Do you really mean anything?" She asked, inwardly wondering if this ment it was time to dig up her old trunk of stuff that was assumed by almost everyone who knew here and about it as long gone.

Aaron laughed. "Yeah, I don't really know how exactly this happened. Normally I have trouble making anything. But today, it just worked out. Any good?" He asked.

He sat down with his plate and dug in. He was quite famished, having obviously not eaten since the night before. Plus he'd... exerted himself earlier which made him hungry as well.

He smiled at Aiera's question, but didn't give a verbal answer. He just shrugged slightly and stood up. He took his plate to the sink, and then walked off silently to the bedroom.

Wouldn't want her to get too bored. So I'll just let her think what she wants to think. I think I'll take a shower. Aaron said, walking into the bathroom. He turned the water on and got it nice and warm and then hopped on in. ((Not literally hopping of course))

There was still time until dinner would roll round, and so as she finished eating she was trying to think of what to do with herself.

A devilish grin flikered on to her face as she walked up the stairs slightly after Aaron to hear him turn on the shower. She peaked in with a smile, and half a mind to join him to be honest. But perhaps she had something else in mind...

"Aaron?" She called from the door, her voice almost a low sensuous purr. "I'll be waiting for you when you're done love."

With that said she made her way back to their bedroom, toossed her robe onto the chair at the door and crawled onto the bed, burrying her face in the pillow that he had been using the night before. She never tired of his scent, it was comforting, loving, pleasing... And it made her want more.

She picked up her head slightly and brushed her hair out of her face. It was shorter than it had been last time she could remember feeling this wild and reckless... Back in university more than seven years ago. She wanted to feel the same way she had back then. She wanted to just forget herself in Aaron, just lose herself to wild pleasures.

Was this what a mid-life crissis was? How could it be? She was only twenty-eight! She couldn't be having a crissis now, she had too much to take care of as it was. And if it was a mid-life crissis, was she going to die before she was fifty? She didn't want to die, she was still too young. She wanted to have fun.

She sighed and lay her face back in the pillow. The air on her bare skin giving her goosebumps. God... she really was losing it wasn't she?

Aaron laughed when Aiera called to him in the shower.

"Alright love, I'll be out soon." He said, and began to shower faster. (If that is really even possible) Finally he was finished showering, but now came the longer part, drying. Call it an obsession, but Aaron could not stand remaining wet, even the slightest bit, after a shower. And with as much hair as Aaron had, well, drying it could create a bit of a task. But he'd been doing it for a long time, and this time was no different. At last, after a rigorous drying, Aaron was completely dry. He slipped into a bathrobe and then walked out into the bedroom. He slid into the bed close to Aiera and slipped his arm around her.

"I'm back love. Nice and clean, though I was rather hoping ye'd join me in there. Oh well, now I've got ye here anyway, all to meself." He whispered, kissing her neck and back.

"I was thinking about it..." She murmured as a smile curled on her lips, chasing away her fears of the moment. He back had always been one of her weakest and most sensitive spots... And only he had been able to find it. She lay their murmuring occasonaly, with a content smile on her face.

But then suddenly the thought popped into her mind again, and this time she couldn't chace it away. "Aaron..." She whispered as she turned over to look at him, a worried look on her face. "Am I going crazy...?" She asked. "It just feels like... Like..." She didn't know how to discribe it. "Just strange things just pop into my head... Weird thought... Desires and wants that just sort of come out of the blue... Like wanting to have a baby."

She dropped her head back on the pillow with a frustrated sigh. Her hands traveling up to wrap around his waist. "I think I'm losing it Aaron, and I don't know why. It's just crazy... There's no way I could take care of a child..." Now she was doubting herself? This wasn't like her at all. Maybe all want-to-be parents doubted themselves...

Aaron shook his head.

"Nah love, ye aren't going crazy, unless I'm driving ye to it with me dashing good looks." He struck a pose, trying to lighten the mood. "Plus ye've always been a bit crazy, ye have ta admit." He traced circles across her bare stomach. "But look... ye convinced me that I could be a good dad, so what makes ye think ye couldn't be a good mom? And wanting to start a family isn't weird, I'm surprised we hadn't talked about this earlier to be honest." He started to kiss her stomach, since it was there and all. "I think I know the problem. Ye've got too much stress right now. That's why this honeymoon will do us both good. We can lay around like this, or in any other position we want, and eat all weekend. We don't even have to do anything if we don't want. Just relax. That should help ye get rid of some o' that stress."

She listened carefuly to what he was saying. True.. She had always been a bit of an odd one. But he loved her anyways. And that was always a plus. But, he was surprised that it hadn't come up before? Well.. She woudl have said somethign about it a few months ago, but she just thought she was going crazy.

With an almost helpless smile she hands ran from around his waist up his chest to his shoulders. "I suppose if you think I can be a good mother... I can do it." She lifted her head to his, brinnging their lips together as she ran her hands down his chest once more, but this time under the bath robe.

Though she sill thought herself sliightly losing it, she trusted his judgment. He would take care of her. He would know if somethign was seriously wrong... He would watch out for her. Her and whoever else might come along.

She deepened the kiss, tugging him but his robe down against her.

Aaron kissed back, but took his hands off of her to remove his robe and toss it on the floor. The room was a bit cold, considering his current clothing (ie. none), so he slipped quickly under the covers. Then he returned to the "task" at hand. Since Aiera had already gotten out of her robe, he didn't get the pleasure of removing it, but it did leave her vulnerable to tickling... Which was always fun.

Aaron continued to kiss her, not betraying his new mission. As he ran his hands across her back, he slowly moved into position... and then started to tickle her. She was possibly the most ticklish person ever, so he had always loved tickling her. Her reaction was so cute, the futile attempts to get him to stop. This time though, he'd let her if she tried. Wouldn't want to ruin the mood.

"So, what are ye going ta do now love? How're ye going ta punish me now eh?" He joked.

However his plan didn't go exactly as he thought it would. Sure she was ticklish, but caught up in the moment the tickle attempt only set her nerves on fire, and her heart fluttering, driving her closer to the brink of reckless abandon she still loved after all these years.

She pulled herself closer to him, her lips trailing down his neck. Her hands meandered down his chest, her nails digging into his skin slightly. "Trying to tickle me hmmm?" She whispered into his neck. "Well my loving husband... It looks as if it isn't quite working..." There was a tone in her voice, not unlike when she had one too many drinks, but this was something else... She nibbled at his neck slightly.

"So what else do you think you can do to me." She said in a low playful growl as her teeth moved up to his ear, tugging slightly.

Aaron laughed when his attempt at tickling her completely backfired and instead set her aflame. However, it wasn't a bad thing. She was starting to get feisty now, and that was always fun.

"Well well, I seem to have let out the animal in ye." Aaron said, gasping slightly as she dug her nails into his skin a bit. "Ye've got claws." When she bit his ear. "And ye've got teeth too. This'll be grand. As fer what I can do ta ye, I know quite a few things that I'm sure I'd love doing to ye. But the real question is, what do ye want me ta do ta you?"

While he waited for a response, his hands ran through her hair, then down her back, finally trailing around to slide across her bare stomach.

"Who said you were going to do anthing to me?" She said before taking in a sharp breath as his hand ran across her stomach once more. It only succedded in making her want him more. But if that was his goal...

Her hands on his shoulders she pushed him on to his back against the bed. sittign across his waist she lowered her body to his, her lips taking his in a flame filled kiss. Her hands ran along his muscled arms, almost amazed that he hadn't lost his old physique that he had grown into over their long absance.

"But... If you are going to do anything to me..." She whispered, breaking the kiss for just a moment. "I better enjoy it." Her lips once more became occupied with his for a moment before moving from his neck and down to his chest as her hands ran over the smooth muscles of his sides.

She loved the feel of his skin. The feel of him against her... If she could take back every experiance with every guy she had ever been with and give it back to him... She wouldn't hesitate a moment. She felt something with Aaron she had never felt with anyone else. Somethimng that put him in a lueage of his own....
