A/N: The very much requested (and delayed) honeymoon chapter! Sorry for the wait.

This chapter is told from Patch's POV.

Rated M for extreme fluffiness and a sex scene. A tiny bit OOC.


Her fiery red hair tumbled down her shoulders in waves before loosely forming the softest of curls at the ends. Her makeup was still fresh on her face from the wedding. Specks of dry black mascara rested under her eyes like snowflakes.

Warm rays the colour of amber mixed with honey reflected off the setting sun, falling through the tiny, partially open plane window. They created orange and yellow lines across Nora's milky, pale face.

Her eyes were closed as she slept. Her head rested against my shoulder and her side was pressed into my chest. The ash grey cloth covered armrest that separated our seats was lifted up and pushed back. One of my arms was wrapped around her waist, holding her body as physically close to me as possible.

We weren't flying first class like we originally had planned. We decided to save that extra money and spend it on better accommodation for our honeymoon. Though we talked about transport, I had managed to keep our destination a secret from her- which believe me, wasn't as easy as I hoped or expected it to be. Nevertheless, I succeeded. Nora didn't find out where we would be spending the next two weeks of our lives till we reached the airport today.

I turned my head away from the small television that had a picture of the flight logo across the screen to look at Nora. I still didn't understand how she slept through the plane's decent and landing.

She was so beautiful like this.

A few hours on and I was still trying to wrap my head around the fact that today actually happened. The fact that I was an official married man now honestly made me wonder if this was reality.

Nora was mine. Officially.

She was my wife.

I was her husband.

We were married.

The thought caused my head to spin so much that if I hadn't been sitting down now, I would probably have been sick. Never had I imagined that I would ever get this lucky in life. I know it sounds cliché but I honestly don't know what I did to deserve her. What I did to be her guardian above everything.

As a couple we have had our fair share of ups and downs over the years but we have always pulled through them together.

Along the way I also learned that one of the most amazing things about love was that it could make the impossible seem possible.

Now that Nora and I were married I was going to spend every minute of the rest of my life abiding by the vows I made to her just this morning. I know I am far from perfect and I know there will be times in our future when I might not live up to her expectations of a husband. I could only hope that she would have it in herself to forgive me for those moments. I love her so much that it was hard to put into words. She really was everything to me. She was all I had left which is why I was sure as hell going to try my best to follow the promises I made to her today through to beyond eternity.

Nora looked so peaceful. Her thin lips were slightly parted and her breathing was so gentle and rhythmic that it was therapeutic to listen to. She continued to take my breath away every time I looked at her. Seeing Blythe walk her down that aisle today and give her away to me... That was one memory I hoped would never fade away for a very long time.

I know as her mother Blythe had her doubts about me at the start but for the sake of her daughter's happiness she put her other feelings aside. Before I proposed to Nora I had asked her permission for to have Nora's hand in marriage. I didn't really have a plan for if the answer was no but I knew I wouldn't ever go against her wishes. Luckily, Blythe nodded as tears welled in her eyes. She pulled me in and hugged me tight just like a mother hugs their child. Before I left she made me promise to love, cherish and care for her only daughter with all I had in me. Little did she know that that was my job. I only hoped now that if Nora's dad were here, I would have his blessing to.

"Nora? Nora, Angel?" I whispered into her ear, gently tugging on her soft earlobe with my teeth.

She hummed a reply, moving in closer to my body. She obviously wasn't in the mood for moving anytime soon.

I leaned my head to side slightly so I could gently suck on the tip of her ear. Her skin felt warm against my lips. She tasted like vanilla. "We're here and we have to leave once the seat belt sign is off, Nora. I already postponed our check in time at the hotel. They can't wait for us forever."

I was so excited for our honeymoon. Putting the obvious reason aside, I was also looking forward to it being just me and her for the next three hundred and thirty six hours (not counting today).

"Five'ore inutes..." She mumbled, voice hoarse and groggy with sleep as she buried her head into my shoulder. Feeling warm her breath against my flesh made me shiver. She moaned as I started pressing teasing kisses down her cheekbone. "Patch... I wanna' s'eep. Let me."

"We have two whole weeks, Angel. You can sleep how much ever you want then." I chuckled knowing that we would be too busy to even ponder the thought of sleep. Luckily we managed to sneak out unnoticed a few times during the reception to have a little 'us' time either next to the bathroom stalls or in a secluded corner of the hall. Honestly though, no matter how much I had I would still never be able to get enough of her.

I slipped one of my hands under the soft, silk, rose coloured camisole she had changed into after the reception. I changed into my signature lookeof ripped, denim jeans and faded black top that successfully earned me a few disproving looks from our guests. The tux was getting itchy anyway.

Nora's skin was so smooth under my hand. I wrapped my hand around her bare abdomen before lightly running my fingers across the front of her stomach, teasing the skin there with my finger tips.

I had no intention of leaving this girl's side for the next fourteen days.

I glaced up at the sound of the seat belt sign flickering off with a small beep, the sound of hasty footsteps following right after.

Nora wrapped her arms around my torso, holding me tighter to her as I made a move to get up.

"Wait till the rush ends and then we can go." She whispered, craning her head up to press her lips softly against my jaw. "We have all the time in the world."

We had two weeks stretched out right in front of us. Fourteen whole long days to love, explore and discover each other in ways we had never done before. It seemed so endless right now.

Nora started kissing and sucking on my throat, smiling softly when I shivered. I turned my head towards hers and locked our lips together in a kiss. I brought the hand that wasn't pressed against her skin up to brush back the waves of her hair before using it to gently cup the side of her face. I let her take the lead as she opened her mouth over mine. Our tongues found each other in an instant, locking together in a dance that was all to familiar to us.

A deep groan escaped from the back of her throat as she reached out to fist my shirt in her hands. Thank god we got a chance to change after the reception. That beautiful wedding dress she wore wouldn't have survived five seconds inside our hotel room.

I pulled away from those pink tinted lips that had lipstick smeared on the sides. I rested my forehead against hers. My heart was pounding so hard that it almost hurt my ribs.

I leaned up and brushed lips across her forehead, "I love you so much, Nora."

"I love you too, Patch." She whispered without hesitance before leaning up and pulling me in again.

I was about to protest for the sake of the other passengers and to spare us the embarrassment of having one of the flight attendants come up to us to give us a lecture that our intimacy level wasn't appropriate for public- yes, it has happened before- but I pushed those thoughts aside and kissed her back with the same fever.

I didn't care if we were late for check in. After all, we did have all the time in the word.


"Patch, look there's a balcony overlooking the city!" Nora exclaimed, instantly rushing over to slide open the glass, French sliding doors next to the bed.

I placed our suitcases inside before stepping into the room and shutting the charcoal painted, wooden door behind me. The fresh smell of roses and jasmine hit me almost instantly. The main overhead room light was off but the two identical lamps on either side of the bed were on, giving off enough light to illuminate the whole room.

I stood in the narrow entryway taking everything in the best I could.

The room was... beautiful. Of course that was expected as it was a five star hotel.

It was thrilling knowing that we had a whole four days here before we left for Paris where we would be staying for another four days. We then would spend a day travelling to Kefalonia in Greece where we would be spending the last four days of our honeymoon.

Everything we would need was spaciously packed into one single room.

The walls in the room were painted a rich magenta colour. Portrait and landscape paintings were strategically hung across the walls at various heights adding that bit of colour to the large space. There was a small but stylish modern looking kitchen on the right hand side of the room. The counter top was made of pure black marble that matched well with the silver steel appliances that looked like they were brand new. The moonlight coming through from the balcony glinted of the tiny collage of plain, black tiles above the stove. A waist high glass wall partition was used to separate the kitchen from the 'dining room' which was just a tiny space consisting of a small glass round table and two black, tufted dining chairs on either end.

A white leather loveseat was positioned in the middle of the room just a little in front of the end of the bed. In front of the loveseat was a simple, thirty eight inch, flat screen television placed on top of a glass stand that seemed to be stacked with DVDs.

My eyes finally fell on the double bed at the very left hand side of the room. It was large- thankfully. Black metal rods extended up from each of the four corner posts of the bed reaching up and forming the frame of a canopy. A white, sheer canopy fell around of the bed. The black satin sheets matched well with the sentire of the room and were tucked tightly into the mattress. The pillows were fluffed out and were pristine white, contrasting well against the black sheets.

I almost felt sorry for what that bed would have to endure in these next four days.

There was door on the right hand side of the bed probably leading to the bathroom. I wanted to go in and have a look since the brochure said that there was a spa made for two in there but I pushed that thought aside. We had all the time in the world to explore. Plus I had plans for tonight.

"Patch, come here!" Nora's voice pulled me back to the here and now. I smiled. There was just something about seeing her glowing with excitement that made my heart swell. She really did have the most beautiful smile.

Stuffing my hands into the front pockets of my jeans I walked over to the balcony.

I stepped into the veranda and wrapped my arms around her from the back before using one hand to push her thick red hair to the side so I could nuzzle my face into the crook of her neck. I softly kissed the cold, bare skin there, savoring the sweet taste of her skin on my lips.

She leaned back against me, giving me more access to the stretch of her neck. "I still feel like I am waiting for the moment when I finally wake up. It just feels like a dream. A wonderful dream."

"This is wonderful but it is no dream, Angel." My breath washed against her skin. I wrapped my arms tighter around her waist.

"I can't believe that we are in Milan. I can't believe we are in Italy! On our honeymoon... And tomorrow we can take a train to travel to Pisa to see the leaning tower and-oh!" Nora gasped in surprise as I bit down on her shoulder, sucking a bruise onto the skin there. I pulled back and smiled satisfied with the purplish red mark I had left on her skin. She sighed blissfully, "We can see the whole city from here, Patch. It's so beautiful."

"It hasn't got a thing on you though, Mrs Cipriano." I nipped on her ear.

She turned around in my arms, a playful smirk playing on her pink lips. How was she so beautiful? "Flattery will get you everywhere, Mr Cipriano."

"That's the intention, Angel." I winked, feeling a smirk twisting my lips to the side.

Nora's dazzling, starlight eyes met mine. They were wide in anticipation yet they held a light of nervousness. I slipped my hands under the thin fabric of her camisole and pulled her in so that we were pressing against each other in every way possible. I caressed the soft feel of her petite waist gently with my hands.

"You should kiss me," She whispered, reaching up to trail a delicate finger along the curve of my shirt's cotton collar. Her touch made me shiver.

"Angel, your wish is my command." I leaned down, gently ghosting my lips over her lusciously, soft, pink ones. I let my tongue drag along the shape of her upper lip before I pressed my mouth against hers fully. We both moaned under the sensation. Her hands immediately flew to my hair, jerking me closer as my hands slid up to the top of her chest resting just below her breasts.

Our kisses turned desperate fueled by the longing that was burning within us. I let my hands fall to her thighs before I lifted her off the ground causing the skirt she was wearing to slide slightly up her flesh. Her long, bar stool like legs immediately hooked their way around my waist. Our hips brushed together and I felt the front of my denim jeans tighten.

"We should take this inside." I whispered, my voice sounding low and husky.

Nora moaned, leaning down to suck on my earlobe. "We should."

I walked us over the bed, making sure to slide the balcony door shut with my foot so our voices didn't carry. We did't want to be reported for noise pollution on our very first night itself. And I didn't really want to have to explain to Blythe why we were home early.

I walked us over to the bed, laying Nora's body down gently against the mattress before detaching our lips and crawling over her. The pristine sheets creased under our weight. I placed hand on the side of her neck before bringing my mouth down to her flesh so I could suck on the skin there.

"Patch..." She whispered, her hands falling to the hem of my shirt and lifting the fabric off me. She chucked it to the side before resting her hands flat against the panes of my chest. The feel of her skin on mine was so delightful. "I love you, Patch." Her eyes locked with mine. The look in those grey depths right now was so sincere it made my heart jump. "I love you and I'm so glad that it's you I am here with tonight."

I leaned down and kissed her softly on her lips, "You're mine, Angel. Forever."

She lifted her arms up so I could drag her camisole of her. I reached around her body and unclipped the black, lacy bra she wore before pulling back to take in the sight. Unconsciously I licked my lips.

She was beautiful and so... so utterly sexy.

Nora lay under me, cheeks flushed, lips swollen and her pale eyes wide burning with desire and desperation.

I leaned back down so that our bare torsos pressed against each others. God, I loved the feel of our bare skin pressing together. I kissed a line down her neck to the gap between her breasts. I dragged my tongue along the narrow line of the skin there, loving the way her body arched upwards in desire. As I nipped on the delicate skin there I bought one hand up and kneaded her right breast. I barely even brushed my thumb over her nipple yet it hardened instantly.

"You are beautiful, Nora. So beautiful," I whispered breathlessly against her skin. I brought my other hand up to knead her left breast like I had done with her right one.

I continued my path down to her panty line. She must have kicked her skirt off at some point. I didn't mind. It saved us a few seconds. Slipping my fingers under the skimpy piece of fabric I dragged her underwear down her legs. The fabric fell off the bed.

Her hands immediately fell to the button my jeans, fumbling to push it open. "This is only fair if we both are naked,"

I hummed an agreement, pulling away to help her slide my jeans and boxers down my legs.

We were both naked now. I pressed my lips back to hers. Our kisses were wet and desperate, both pairs of hands roaming each other's body desperate for more. I ran a finger down the soft flesh on the inside of her thigh but Nora placed a hand over mine stopping me.

"Angel..." I knew where this was going.

She shook her head, locking her eyes with mine. "I want to feel you, Patch. I want to feel everything tonight. The pain and the pleasure,"

"I don't want to hurt you." I whispered, kissing the tip of her nose.

"You won't." She assured me, taking my face in her hands and pressing a gentle kiss to my lips. "We've done this once before, I'll be okay."

I eyed her cautiously. I wanted nothing more than to make love to her this very minute but I didn't want her hurting in the process. Tonight was the first time we were going to do this as a married couple. I wanted to do it right.

"You'll tell me if I've gone too far?" I asked, gently rubbing small circles on her abdomen with my fingers.

"I swear I will." She whispered, locking her arms around my waist. "I want you so badly already so hush and make love to me. I'm ready."

Hearing those words come from her mouth aroused me further. I positioned my legs on either of her body, never once removing my hands from some part of her flesh.

"I love you, Nora, my Angel." I whispered, leaning down and pushing into her as gently as I could.

She gasped, eyes widening at the sudden intrusion as her muscles opened and clenched around me instantly. She wrapped her legs around my waist and pulled me in deeper.

At this moment I felt like we had never been closer. I was hers. Completely. She had my body, soul and mind. It all belonged to her.

"You okay?" I asked, brushing away a strand of hair from her forehead. The lighting in the room was perfect. It felt like the glow of candlelight.

She nodded and dug her nails into the side of my hips causing me to bite back a gasp of pleasure.

"Oh my gosh!" Nora gasped as I rocked my hips experimentally over hers. "Keep going. It feels so good, Patch. So good."

I obeyed and started increasing my speed over her, both of us moaning in ecstasy. Feeling her open up and close around me was one of the most amazing feelings I had ever experienced in my life. I could feel a knot forming in my stomach and judging from the way her eyelids flew close and her face scrunched up I knew she was on the brink too.

We whispered each other's name along with confessions of our love to each other as we tipped over the edge together. Finally, I pulled out of her, not even bothering about the mess as my body collapsed on top of hers. Our skin was sweaty and sticky against each others. It was incredible.

"I can't believe we have fourteen more days of this." She whispered, absentmindedly lacing her fingers through the dark strands of my hair that were now damp with sweat.

"And the night is still young after all," I quipped, playfully drawing shapes on the inside of her thigh. Her skin was burning against mine.

Nora smiled knowingly and leaned up to lock our lips back in a loving kiss that didn't take long to turn into a desperate and passionate craving for more. We took our time this time, wanting to draw the moment out as much as we could so we could explore each other down to the very last freckle. I didn't mind. I loved the feel of her and the taste of her skin on lips.

Knowing that this was just the start of our lives together made this moment even more sensual.

Once we finished making love for the second time that night Nora rested her head on my chest and I instinctively wrapped my arms around her naked body. Her now slightly frizzy hair was splayed out under her head on top of my chest. The covers were pulled over us. I combed my fingers languidly through her hair.

"I'm yours, Nora." I whispered, pressing a kiss to her scalp. "Forever."

She leaned in closer and closed her eyes gently. "Good. That's all I ever want you to be."
