Sal's Universe, (still) Las Vegas, Nevada. Morning after wedding.

She growled at the sunlight that was peeking through the curtains and hitting her face just-so, and groaned, stretching her arms out and swearing vengeance on the blinds for not doing their job and convincing her that it was still dark outside.

Surely it wasn't the morning already? She felt like she'd just gotten to sleep.

And then she remembered what had happened the evening before and sat up straight, examining her left hand. Yes, the new ring was still there. She saw the remains of the mammoth lobster still sitting on the bedside table.

Okay. I didn't dream all of that. She smiled widely and flopped back down into the (very fluffy, very squishy, and so comfortable it felt illegal) pillows, turning to her left side and smiling at the man who was surveying her with a look of amusement.

"Good morning," she said, propping her head up with her hand as she looked down at Kurt. "I woke ye up, didn' I?"

"Ja." He gave her a sleepy smile and she could feel his tail finding her ankle under the blankets. "Guten morgan, mein Frau."

She frowned, pulling the blanket up over her shoulder and settling back down into the pillows. "Sorry. Go back to sleep."

He lifted one eyebrow, then snuggled close with a contented sigh. "It's nearly checkout time anyvay."

A groan escaped her. "Don't say that," she said, pressing her face into his shoulder. "I was bankin' on gettin' more sleep."

He kissed her on the head without opening his eyes. "I vonder if they think ve've been kidnapped?"

"Mu prolly knows exactly what's happenin'," she said sleepily, "and has convinced Jav and Ven that I'm dead. Prolly even has a really nice tombstone all picked out with the words 'Sal Wagner. 1978-2006. We hope she got lucky' on it."

She smirked, then yawned and put an arm across his chest, holding him close as she fell halfway towards sleep again.

He was silent for a moment as he dozed himself, but then he groaned softly and stirred. "Do you feel lucky?"

[fire-in-flight.livejournal.com]

"Hm?"

She twitched slightly, her eyes fluttering open. "Of course I do," she said. "I'm here, aren't I?"

[random_xtras]

He rubbed her back, then groaned again as the alarm went off. "I could alvays pay for another night."

[fire-in-flight.livejournal.com]

"It's up to you," she said, rolling over to be face-down in the pillow. "Just please turn that off." She raised her arm over her head and pointed to the alarm clock.

He smacked it gently, then sat up and stretched hugely with his arms in the air.

Sal looked up at him and grinned, blushing slightly as she admired his physique.

"You look a lot better in the morning than I do," she yawned, still not awake.

Kurt gave her another soft, drowsy smile, then leaned down and kissed her before grabbing the robe off the chair by his side of the bed and heading for the bathroom.

She waved him off and rolled over to the middle of the bed, splaying herself across it and promptly falling asleep again.
