Part 1

Maggie slowly moved her head to Bianca's stomach, her hand just under the brunette's tank top. Bianca was sitting up against the head board with a book in hand, reading glasses gracing her face as she read, the lamp on her side of the room casting a soft light through the rest of the room. Shadows formed along the walls and Maggie looked around their bedroom in wonderment...how they had gotten here was a mystery but a mystery she was sure if solved would just make her fall more in love with Bianca then she already was.

Maggie slowly moved her eyes over the room they shared as their own, their private space where they could talk, laugh, sing, play or make love together without worry of being interrupted except for Miranda. Miranda was the one exception to being interrupted but when they made love Miranda was either in a dead slumber or she was at Anna's, Robin's or even Greenlee's.

Greenlee...Maggie smiled at the thought of having at least one good friend from home, besides Bianca who was now her lover as well as her best friend, it felt good to have someone else to talk to that knew all about her past in Pine Valley. Maggie could talk to Bianca about anything and everything but it was nice to have someone to talk to about Bianca and their relationship and their life together.

Maggie had helped Greenlee in her time of need, as Greenlee had once tried to help her in her time of need and now they were closer then ever. It was rather funny how they came across the other. Rather how Miranda had run off for what seemed like the million and tenth time and found Greenlee sitting in a cafe sipping coffee and reading some book. Maggie had almost died when she saw a woman she hadn't recognized holding Miranda and that Miranda was laughing and poking at the other woman. Only when Maggie got closer had she found it to be Greenlee holding onto Miranda and only then had she seen the pain and the tears in the brunette's eyes threatening to spill.

Maggie wondered what Greenlee would have done if Miranda hadn't found her that afternoon and Maggie wondered what she would have done without Greenlee's friendship and acceptance to her relationship with Bianca.

Maggie realized that even if Greenlee hadn't been there she'd still be in this same place but she wouldn't feel as good about her past as she did now.

Maggie sighed happily before she snuggled her head into the fabric of Bianca's shirt...her hand still lost under the fabric. Maggie caught a sight of Bianca's skin showing and she slowly snuggled closer into Bianca's lower stomach and watched the fabric move up just to her cheek so her chin was touching Bianca's navel. Maggie let her tongue slip out and touched the top of Bianca's belly button and felt more then heard Bianca's deep intake of breath. Maggie smiled when Bianca's hand stopped playing with her hair and slowly gripped her hair into her fist as Maggie continued to slip her tongue in and out of Bianca's navel.

"Uh...Maggie...what uh...are you doing?" Bianca asked in a low moan knowing full well what Maggie was doing. She put the book she was doing down on the bedside table that was on her side of the bed. It almost fell on the floor when Bianca felt her lover blow hot air onto her stomach before she went back to teasing her navel with her tongue.

Maggie grinned when she heard the sound of a thud on the floor below them. Maggie leaned over, her hand pressed against Bianca's thigh as she leaned over the brunette to look over the bedside and saw the book on the floor. Maggie smiled and slowly moved back to where she had been, but not before sending Bianca one of her most famous sexy smirks. Maggie laid her head back down against Bianca's bare stomach, the brunette's tank pushed up to just below her breasts and slowly slid her hand up Bianca's inside thigh till she reached under Bianca's boxers and grinned when Bianca's stomach drew in and then out and this time Maggie could hear Bianca's gasp and felt the brunette buck toward her hand.

"Good lord, woman!" Bianca growled out. "You're gonna be the death of me." She chuckled. They had been going at it basically all day since they were baby-free. Anna had taken Miranda for the day and had told Bianca and Maggie they needed time alone. She insisted Miranda spend the day and night with her and Robin and she was not going to take no for an answer.

Maggie smiled and moved her lips down to Bianca's stomach once again this time sucking on the skin...the taste of salt from Bianca's sweet still lingering on her from their previous activities. Maggie smiled when she felt Bianca trying to slowly lay down on the bed so she was no longer sitting against the head board but Maggie grabbed both of Bianca's hips, and kept the brunette where she was. Maggie looked up into Bianca's questioning eyes and only smirked as she slowly rose from her position and swung her right leg over Bianca so she was now kneeling above Bianca, their faces equal to the others.

"We're not sleeping anytime soon, are we?" Bianca asked smiling with a little chuckle. She then saw the look in Maggie's eyes and knew the answer was a no. She was thankful Miranda wasn't there because she knew with all the noise they were both making would wake their little muchie up.

Maggie smiled as she slowly made her way to the window, a chair already waiting for her there. Maggie loved to just look out at the city when the sun was up and about around the city. It was a beautiful sight to behold any time of the day no matter when or what the weather was like. Maggie missed Bianca, and as she looked over at the bed against the wall in the room she couldn't help but remember the last night they had spent together before Bianca rushed off to Pine Valley with Miranda and had left Maggie in Paris. Not so much as left behind but staid behind for her own reasons which at this point she couldn't remember.

Maggie looked around outside the window and saw people on the streets below rushing around on the ground, some with umbrellas some without but most running. Almost all of them were running, except those few that excepted the beauty of the rain falling in their beautiful city and took the time to admire it if even just for a few extra seconds. Maggie looked around the room and saw a picture of Miranda in hers and Bianca's arms as they stood at the Arc de Triumph with the backdrop of the city behind them, and Maggie felt her heart ache. Maggie had realized her mistake the moment Bianca and Miranda had walked out that door to catch a jet to Pine Valley. Maggie knew she should have gone with them but hadn't been able to pull the courage together to take another large step and actually go back and face her past. With words and memories she could face it but having to go back to places where her past had taken place was something of its own.

Maggie hadn't been ready the day Bianca had left, to once again rush back to her family that needed her to be with them. Old and new family members needing help back in Pine Valley and once again it seemed no matter how big of an ocean stood between them and Pine Valley, Pine Valley always came after them. Maggie looked out the window and then down at her hands, that lay clasped in her lap. Maggie hadn't been ready then to go with Bianca and Miranda back to Pine Valley, but she was now.

Maggie sighed...it was just another Thanksgiving and the first one since she had moved to Pine Valley that she was not with a family member. Though this year it didn't matter, as Maggie smiled at the memories of Bianca, Miranda and her in Paris. Maggie slowly turned her head away from the window and looked around the room before she slowly stood up, needing to freshen herself up before she headed out with Greenlee for a very big night of their lives.

Maggie smiled as she looked out the window at the rain drops cascading down from the heavens and plunging down to earth to only make the smallest of plop noises when the water dropped into an already large puddle of rain water. It didn't matter what the weather or the time, when you were looking out on a city that you called home the beauty of it couldn't be matched by any other, even the great city of lights.

"Happy Thanksgiving...Pine Valley." Maggie said softly as she looked out the window at the wondrous city of Pine Valley. "Its good to be home." Maggie said softly as glanced once more at the long forgotten sight of the town she called home for the longest significant amount of time in her life

Maggie stopped dead in her tracks as she made it to the bathroom doorway, and she slowly turned her head back to the window to just take one more look. Maggie's lips curved and she walked into the bathroom closing the door behind her. Pine Valley didn't scare her anymore and neither did her past...so finally she could go on with her future with Bianca and Miranda, finally she could follow them back here to the one place on earth she had sworn never to return to. It seemed you could move across the ocean or to the other side of the world to get away from Pine Valley but it never really let you go.
