It's Always Something
A/N: Hi! An actually first H/M chapter story by me! :D I'm hoping I get this right and it's kinda weird, but it's H/M. I got inspired from "Grey's Anatomy". Remember, it's just a start.
The candles were lit around the huge bedroom making it dim, it was the only light to see the two of them drinking wine and carrying on. There were rose pedals scattered on the floor around the bed and the scent of perfume filled the air. As well as some soft music in the background; a mixture of jazz and soft rock from that time era.
He, on his back and on his side of the bed was staring at her, as she was looking straight ahead sipping her wine little by little. He studied her face, forgetting how beautiful she was. She felt his glaze upon her and loved it. She wanted him to keep waiting; to keep him anticipated. That's what she loved to do. She looke over to him admiring his chest that was bare outside the covers. And as always, she admired his piercing blues never stopped looking at her. They were like water, always the same, but then again, always changes. She, being calm as she was turned back straight ahead in this circumstance just quietly laughed continuing to drink her wine.
Dr. Benjamin Franklin Pierce also known as Hawkeye to friends or comrades laid in the bed getting ready for a night of fun with his wife, Mrs. Margaret Houlihan-Pierce formally known as Major Houlihan; formally known as Hot Lips to many others.
They married as soon as they got home from the Korea War concluding that they could't live without each other. It was a quiet ceremony with their friends and parents, but nothing fancy. They refused to have that, didn't see the sense of having a huge ceremony and keeping account of every little detail. After all, everyone knew that they were going to get together in the first place from the first time they set their feet in Korea.
Setting her wine glass on the end table, she slid her body underneath the covers slowly putting her head on the pillow. She turned on her side and stared at her husband.
"Now, I'm ready." She replied in her soft whisper. Her bangs slightly covered her eyes but she had enough space to see him; to see her smile. Hawkeye moved the bangs to see his wife's beautiful eyes.
"Thank God. I actually thought you were going to hold back on me. Now, where did we leave off?" He asked in a sly cool way. With a laugh from the woman, Hawkeye blew out the nearby candles so it was dark and rustling started.

"I don't think you understand what I'm saying! I have a career to think about Robert! I don't have time for this foolishness." Jackie Moon argued with her husband in another part of Crabapple Cove.
"What do you mean you have no time for this foolishness? Is your daughter foolishness, Jackie? You have all the time in the world for the hospital and the patients, but not your family? Think of your daughter! She's living without a mother."
"What would you like me to do, Robert? Get fired or lack my work? I'm the most ambitious out of all the women out there! I'm making a statement that any woman can do what they want if they work hard enough and fight for what they want. Would you like me to quit on that dream?"
"No, but a little time off is all I'm asking. She's three years old!"
"I know that. Don't you think I know that?"
Frustrated, he added. "You know what? I'm not arguing anymore do what you have to do; I have to get to bed. There's no getting through to you. You know what you are? Stubborn. Stubborn as a mule." He pointed to her before taking off. "Jackie, make a decision, either your career, or your family." He stormed away heading to the bedroom.
Jackie Moon just stood there in silence with nothing to do. Her marriage was on the wrecks because of a demanding career she loved; being a doctor at Crabapple Cove General Hospital and working next to a man that kept her sane through the whole thing. Other than that, they were good friends with a wonderful and secret past. But she also loved her daughter and wanted to make the world better for her but her career was the only way. She wanted to show her daughter that she could be anything she wanted to be and no one has to stop her. Women were on the rage already for the rights they deserve. Jackie wanted her daughter to do the same thing.
Jacqueline Ann "Jackie" Moon was a petite woman with a strong heart. Her misty black hair was short and up to her collar. Her mixed skin was a beautiful complexion and the perfect blend that any woman would want to be noticed. Her dark brown eyes were filled with determination; to move ahead in life. She was frowned on in the whole world, but in this small town, she was accepted as a human being and not as a color. Her life dream is to one day go places where she would not be discriminated because of a color, but she would rather be frowned on if she was treated as a human. Jackie Moon is determined to show her case to the world and prove that she is just as good as a white woman, and man. But first things, first, she had to take care of her family and solve their problems quick before it was too late.
