The moogle's room service continued to the next room.

The door was open just a crack and when he pushed the cart through the doorway it opened all the way.

Being the polite little creature he was the moogle spoke, "Hello? Room service?"

He pushed the cart to the middle of the main room and noticed that there were many clothes strewn about the floor like a hurricane had gone through. Soon, the moogle saw why.

His cheeks went red when he saw the bed. Two people were lying horizontally on the bed, the blankets thrown to the floor.

Lying on his side was Vaan, his pointer finger to his lips to silence the moogle. The reason for that was the sleeping beauty next to him. Ashe was laying on her side sound asleep, the bed sheet wrapped around her naked torso and her bare legs were off the side of the bed.

Seeing the moogle obviously embarrassed not to mention apologetic to what he walked in on, Vaan playfully urged him to leave before Ashe would see. Even after what transpired through the night between her and Vaan exhausted her, Ashe's temper knew no limit when she was embarrassed, and Vaan didn't want to see her inflict her wrath on a moogle just doing his job.

Luckily the creature seemed to understand the nature of his predicament and silently floated away, closing the door softly behind him.

Once that was out of the way Vaan put his arm around Ashe's waist and he pulled her closer to him. She mewled in her sleep and wiggled her hips against Vaan's, and he smirked. He raised his hand, going across her belly and up to her chest, his thumb rubbed the underside of her breast and she gasped lightly. Vaan then pressed his lips to the side of her neck and she moaned.

"Vaan…"

The sky pirate couldn't help but enjoy hearing the proud queen lovingly moan his name. It was the sweetest sound to his ears he had heard in a long while.

"Morning Your Majesty," was Vaan's reply.

Ashe moved onto her back and she slowly opened her eyes. Her hands moved down her front and when she found Vaan's hand she turned to face him. She didn't seem upset with him for being so hands on this early in the morning. Must be because she hadn't seen him in a long time, that or she just loved his touch. Either one could have been a suitable answer.

Ashe felt sore, but that was understandable and she didn't mind. She rubbed her eyes before sitting up. She held the bedsheet to her chest though she did so out of reflex even if Vaan was the only one to see her so under-dressed. Truth be told it was because of him that she was wearing nothing. The love they had made during the night had been both heated and passionate, with a taste of desperation on her part.

But in Vaan's mind it was so worth it.

"How long have you been awake?"

Vaan shrugged his shoulders, "Not very long. Room service dropped off a cart while you were asleep."

Ashe turned to see the silver cart with the prepared dishes on it and suddenly felt very hungry. "I am rather famished, to be honest." She covered her mouth with her free hand and yawned before standing up still holding the sheet to her chest. She didn't really care for finding a shirt to cover herself, not when her privacy was guaranteed while in this room.

As Ashe went to the table and took a seat Vaan was busy grabbing his trousers and putting them on. Once that was done he walked about the room and took a seat next to Ashe at the table. She was already beginning to eat the breakfast meal delivered by the moogle. Vaan also helped himself to the meats that were available.

Vaan decided to strike up a conversation, "This island is rather new compared to other places we've been to. I'm inclined to want to explore it. Want to join me?"

She nodded, setting her glass of water down on the table, "Of course. I am rather curious about this island."

"Too bad there are others here, it'd be much better if we were alone, don't you think?" Vaan said with a smile.

She tilted her head slightly and offered a smile as well, "To be honest all we'd have to do is go to your cottage on the Phon Coast for true privacy, no?"

"True," he said.

They finished their breakfast and from there Ashe went about gathering her clothes that had bene thrown to the ground. Some of that had been of her own hands, while most of it had been from Vaan. She eventually threw the bedsheet back onto the mattress, and her physically body was exposed for all to see. Vaan found himself stopping to admire her from every angle he could before she slipped a white bathrobe on.

"Before we go off to explore, I would much like to take a bath."

Vaan nodded, but he also had an idea. "That's alright. I'll just ask the moogles what we can all do here for the time being."

Ashe went towards the bathroom door, and she asked, "I was personally hoping you'd join me."

That was an invitation from the Queen of Dalmasca to the sky pirate and she wasn't hiding it.

However, Vaan had a better plan. "That would be lovely; though I think we should take our time and revel in the island before we indulge ourselves of each other too much."

He noted her somewhat disappointed expression, but Vaan went on over to her, holding both her hands with his own.

"Then after we have some time with others…" he moved one hand to untie the sash on her waist before raising it to her cheek. She smiled at his touch, "Wouldn't want to spoil all our fun on the first day, right?"

Ashe raised a hand to her Vaan's cheek, "Very well."

That was all she said before she went into the bathroom.
