Summer pouted at him. \u201cIt\u2019s Christmas, we can\u2019t just \/go\/? Oh, well,\u201d she surrendered, \u201cmaybe another time.\u201d She squeezed his hands, sat back and folded her legs lotus style. \u201cIt\u2019s controlled by wearing it. When you wear it, you have wings. The first time you put it on, the magic is activated, and it runs out in twelve days, whether or not you wear it between,\u201d she explained. \u201cI suppose you could wait to use it.\u201d She glanced away, smiling a little. \u201cI only thought you would want to right away.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\u201cSorry, no,\u201d Tony replied dryly, not sounding apologetic in the slightest.\u00a0 He held the medallion up in front of himself, admiring it for a few moments before tucking it into his pocket, a portion of the chain hanging out.\u00a0 \u201cAs much as I\u2019d love to go for a fly right now, I think I\u2019ll hold off on it for a little while.\u00a0 We can go flying when it\u2019s a bit less\u2026winter,\u201d he decided, casting another glance at the window.\u00a0 Fingers under her chin, he drew her in for another kiss.\u00a0 \u201cThank you.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

She would have said \u201cYou\u2019re welcome,\u201d but her mouth was a little busy. So instead she deepened the intensity of the kiss, threading both hands into his hair. She could barely breathe for leaning so far forward and it didn\u2019t matter, because the sense of his happiness was better than air. She didn\u2019t need a Christmas present, she thought, because this, his words, was far more than gift enough.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The kiss was leisurely, unhurried, and when he finally broke the kiss to take a breath, he pulled away slowly, cupping the side of her face with one hand.\u00a0 His grin had finally shrunk down to a surprisingly sincere half-smile.\u00a0 \u201cOnce it warms up a bit again, we can finally go dancing.\u201d\u00a0 He slid a glance down to the medallion as he said it.\u00a0 \u201cWe never really got the chance last time.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

“Maybe you can find a little time for us to spend somewhere warm before too long,” Summer murmured, turning her face into his hand to kiss his palm. “In the meantime, maybe we could go back to what we were doing before you weaseled your gift out of me?” She unfolded her legs to cage him in with her knees, pressing herself up against him, whispering in his ear, “It’s amazing how much your happiness turns me on, Tony.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
