[backdated to March 4] Room with a View (closed to Peter)

[st_hotflashes]

Her first experience on the space station was less than stellar, but Liz wasn't the type of person to let one bad experience hinder her from living. That and Peter sounded really excited about this date he had planned and so, she was more than willing to go with him. They probably should talk about what happened. She has sort of been avoided it.

Liz opted today for her black skirt, the same one from Valentine's Day, and a blue top. Since it was supposed to be a date she didn't bring her backpack either.

She stood outside the entrance of the otherworld and waited.

Peter doesn't respond; he's got plenty to be grateful for himself, but he feels like he's spent a lot of time talking already. For now, all he really wants to do is enjoy this quiet moment with Liz, far away from the Madonna Inn and all the people who apparently have a vested interest in his sex life. He doesn't know when they'll get another opportunity to be alone like this; there's always so many people mulling around the inn that it's hard to do anything without risking someone noticing.

So Peter pulls her closer, so her body is touching hers and his arm can shift in just the right way so that his hand is pressed against the back of his neck against that little place where Liz's hair starts, that place that he really, really likes. And for the time being, Peter realizes as they kiss, he's not really worried about anything. Not about how anyone else feels about him, not about the homework he's supposed to turn into Kitty tomorrow but hasn't even started because he spent so much time goofing off on the station, not about Ms. Rasputin and why she dislikes him so much. Right now, there's only one thing he can focus on, and that's Liz. Liz who loves him, and who he loves, too.

When Peter kissed with confidence, with a sureness to his being, Liz could feel the change between them. His kisses were stronger and more assured and caused what felt like liquid fire to spread through her body. In fact, there is a moment when they kiss, when Peter came to said realization, that pulled a breathless sound from her mouth into his. A silent affirmation that he should have no worry about his skills with her. That he's exactly what she wants and exactly what she needs.

Like him, everything else in her world falls away. There is just him and her in a room filled with stars. It is here where she wants to spend the rest of the day him. The rest of the night. However many moment she has with Peter in this perfect moment - she wants them all.
