Author's Note - I simply could not let the Valentine season pass without a short story for our fave couple~ ^_^

It's a day late, but late is better than never, right ;3

And it takes our fave couple back to a time before they were married and began starting their family; back to the original Precious Moments theme of these short stories. I will pick back up with the 'Family Life' of our fave pair after this chapter, so in the meantime I hope you all enjoy this lil Valentine's Day story~ =3

~A Valentine Interlude~

Lightning softly murmured in her sleep, as a feather-light touch slowly began making its way up her leg. Fang continued to softly kiss her way up her girlfriend's leg, even as Lightning twitched slightly in her sleep. A mischievous grin played across the dark-haired woman's lips, as she licked and nibbled her way up her girlfriend's leg, all the way up to the apex of her legs.

A sudden hand tangling in her thick, dark locks stopped Fang in her tracks, and she turned a completely unrepentant grin upward to stare into her girlfriend's face.

"Good morning, Sunshine. I trust you slept well," Fang drawled out slowly as she slunk her way upward, naked as the day she was born to rest her long, lithe body fully over Lightning's.

Lightning's eyebrow twitched upward before a small grin pulled up the corner of her lips, and she tugged a bit on the dark hair she still had her fingers tangled in.

"Why do I have the feeling that you have something planned in that trouble-making mind of yours?" Lightning asked as she none-too-lightly tugged Fang's face close down to hers, so that her lips barely brushed across her dark-haired girlfriend's lips as she spoke.

Fang let out a ragged breath, as she rubbed her long bare legs between Lightning's equally bare legs, causing dampness to slick against her skin.

"Ah well, you know me too well, darling," Fang replied as she moved her lips over the skin of Lightning's face, never quite touching but so close that Lightning could feel the heat of Fang's breath, which caused shivers to work their way through her body.

"Mm hm, and I'm sure that you have some plan cooked up in that brain of yours for this day," Lightning replied with a soft purr, as she leaned up and lightly took one of Fang's ears into her mouth and began to nibble on it.

A shiver ran through Fang's body, and with a low growl she grabbed hold of both of her girlfriend's hands, and placed them firmly by the sides of Lightning's head.

"Oh yeah, I have a plan. You know that I always have a plan...especially when it involves you," Fang murmured heatedly, before she dived down and pressed her lips hard against Lightning's.

Lightning let a small sound of pleasure escape her lips, before she wrestled one of her hands free and wrapped it into the dark locks at the back of Fang's head, pulling her girlfriend's lips down harder against hers.

An approving moan slipped passed Fang's lips, as she continued to devour all that her girlfriend's lips offered to her in the form of moans, groans, and gasps. Then reaching out slowly, Fang closed her hand around a small glass jar that she had placed on the bedside table before she had begun nibbling her girlfriend awake.

Lightning let out a surprised gasp as a slick, edible substance slid across her lips. Opening her eyes which had closed while Fang had been kissing her, Lightning looked up to see Fang holding a small jar of liquid chocolate, with a sensual grin spreading across her face. An answering grin spread across Lightning's lips, as she slowly licked at her mouth where Fang had dabbled a bit of the chocolate.

"I see that this plan of yours will involve our sheets getting very...very...messy," Lightning said with light, amused twinkle in her cerulean-blue eyes.

Fang's grin became even wider as she leaned in to nibble on Lightning's lips, while using a finger to dip into the jar, and then spread the gooey substance over a very erect nipple on Lightning's chest.

A soft hiss of pleasure escaped Lightning's lips, and a low purr of desire rumbled through Fang's chest at the sound.

"I intend to make this Valentine's Day one that you never forget," Fang answered in that low, sexy voice that always made a small shiver race through Lightning's body.

"Then I'm just going to have to make sure that you are rewarded well for your efforts," Lightning replied back in that sexy voice that always made Fang quake wherever she stood or lay. Then before Fang knew what was happening or could react, Lightning had pulled her back down to capture her lips in a toe-curling kiss, that had Fang almost forgetting about the jar of chocolate she still held clutched tightly in her hand.

Almost.

Hope you guys enjoyed! Please let me know what you all thought of this lil Valentine treat~ ^.^
