A/N: Well, we haven't had a naughty chapter in a while, so here this is!
Carly and Jack, despite being newlyweds, hadn't actually had sex for nearly a month now. First they'd been busy moving out of their old apartment and into their new one, and then there were wedding preparations to contend with. There had been so many things to do that the mood had never struck. They hadn't even done anything on their wedding night because they were on an overnight flight to Europe! Despite the rumors, the airplane bathroom had not looked like a tempting place to get that stuff started.
They'd spent the first two days of their honeymoon touring Florence. It was a beautiful city, and Carly had thoroughly enjoyed it, but the full days, combined with jet lag, had made them too tired to do anything more than sleeping. But today, they'd just driven leisurely around the countryside and toured a vineyard. Of course, Carly couldn't participate in any wine tastings, but she found it fascinating anyway.
They'd taken a nap in the afternoon and gotten room service for dinner, and now it finally seemed like they were about to "do it"! But then Carly had gone into the bathroom to get undressed, and she was horrified at the sight in the mirror. Despite Misty's reassurances, she still had serious doubts about the way she looked while pregnant.
For one thing, there were all these veins. Clothing hid most of those, but when she was naked they were all out for display in their blue, ropey, ugly veininess. And her boobs…well, she'd known they would never be the same, but this was ridiculous! A taller woman, such as Aki or Misty, would be able to pull it off, but Carly thought it looked absurd on her formerly petite frame.
She couldn't see what her butt looked like. This was probably a blessing.
"Carly!" Jack boomed, "How long does it take to get your clothes off? Are you…"
He abruptly paused mid-sentence, then said, "Never mind."
Carly hastily wrapped a towel around herself, and ran out wailing, "It's no good!"
Jack, who was sitting up in bed with the covers pulled up to his waist, bemusedly stared at her.
"Can we turn the lights off?" she continued frantically.
Jack raised an eyebrow and asked, "And why would we want to do that?"
"Because I…look…hideous!" Carly gasped out.
Since Jack still looked unconvinced, she reluctantly let the towel drop.
"See?" she cried. Jack nodded solemnly.
"Yes, I see. And now it's my turn," he answered. With that, he removed the covers.
Carly looked, and immediately started blushing.
"Oh," she said quietly.
"Yep. Now come here."
And so she did. It had definitely been worth the wait!
