Mike was standing at the dock waiting for Hamersley to come alongside. He could glance up on to the bridge and see Kate bringing Hamersley in for the first time as CO. within a few minutes the crew were disembarking the ship Mike got a few greetings from his old crew who said Kate was getting her stuff packed. The Hamersley crew had two weeks shore leave due to the wedding. Suddenly Mike could hear the familiar voice of his fiancé as she spoke to Dutchy.

"So ma'am he's the one hey?" Dutchy asked knowing the answer.

"Oh very much so, I really don't think I could have married anyone but him." They both head to the back of the boat and on to the gangplank and saluted. Kate saw an all too familiar face as she walked off the gangplank and practically ran into the arms of Mike.

"Oh Mike, I have missed you all too much." Kate said before kissing Mike and he then deepened the kiss pouring the emotion of six days into one long kiss.

"Oi will you two get a room?" Charge yells as he disembarked the ship.

"Didn't think there was a crime in kissing on the docks." Mike replies.

"No not for other navy officers only you two." Charge said walking towards base.

"Are you ready to go home Kate?"

"Oh more than ready sailor." Kate says taking Mike's hand in her own before turning and walking toward the car.

"How did the swap over for my house go?' Kate asked Mike nervously hoping that it was a very smooth handover.

"Oh like a duck to water."

"Is Ryan enjoying it there?" Kate asked.

"Oh very much so, here let me get the car door for you."

"Why thank you Commander."

It was a short drive home with one another talking about the wedding and what the previous six days had in store for one another. They arrived home and settled in for a movie and takeout, and a nice bottle of red wine. Mike switched the TV off and Kate went to lock the front and back doors of the home.

"Mike I am going to have a bath, care to join me?" Kate asks already stripping off before the bedroom.

"I think you know the answer to that question Kate."

"Ok then you get the water running, I have to do a few things." Kate said before she walked past Mike in her bra and undies and he turned around and slapped her on the bum.

"Oh you right there Mike."

Mike took her arm and span her in to his chest he pressed his lips to hers hearing her moan. "Mike I have to do something please let me go!" Kate managed to escape freely from the arms of Mike and run into the kitchen and grab two glasses and a bottle of champagne.

"What's the special occasion?" Mike asked curiously.

"This is what I will call pre wedding sex." Kate said, walking over to Mike and turning around before asking him a question that he knew he could not resist to do.

"Mike can you undo my bra please?"

"I think you know the answer to that." With that Mike undid Kate's bra and before she could move he had his hands rubbing her breasts he felt her nipple harden he moaned and she turned around and undid the belt to his pants and pulled them down she ran her hand across that area and slid one hand into his jocks. Kate felt his arousal right there in the palm of her hand. Mike began to remove his shirt and kissed Kate. He made his way down her body until he reached her undies and slid his hand and soon enough they were both moaning. By the time the bath water got cold they had already hopped out and were in bed snuggling up to one another.

"Mike, do you really want children?" Kate asks cautiously hoping Mike's answer will not hurt her.

"Of course I do, I can't wait to have children and then we can fall all over in love again and be a happy family, I reckon it would be pretty awesome for our kids to grow up with their mother, the first female Chief of Navy." Mike said lost in his thought.

"Good cause I want kids too. Mike I love you so much, I don't know how to tell you how much I love you. Do you really think I will be chief of Navy?" Kate asked.

"I know you will." With that Mike rolled over and switched the light out and rolled over again and snuggled up to her. They were both so tired.
