Valentine's Day

[has_2ls]

For the most part, it looks like a regular day. There's a couple people who seem to be talking in rhyme but, hey, that's not so bad considering Carter had acted like it might be the end of the world. Luckily for everyone involved, the Zimmermans seem to be nice and normal too so the kids are staying with them for a few hours while he and Carter have some time...alone.

He's decided to wear his dress blues since it's a date and they're the nicest thing he has but once he actually turns up on Carter's doorstep, he honestly thinks he's maybe overdressed. It's a freaking tropical island, after all, and this is just...two friends hanging out on a commercial holiday. Or something.

Still, as nervous as he is he still wants to spend some time with her so he knocks lightly at the door and tries to look like he's not fidgeting while he waits for her to answer.

"I think we're worth it," she says, and leans in to kiss him just because she can. And because she wants to. It's a kiss that's soft and sweet and one of those kisses that she just wants to hold on to and never let go. In every universe--except the one Ba'al created--it's always been them. Because they just fit.

Jack kisses her for a few moments before rolling her beneath him, just enjoying the moment to be close and be in love with her for a little while before there's the kids and the island and who knows what else interrupting them.

He thinks they're worth it. He's waited over a decade to just imagine this, much less have it.
