My only excuse this time is school and work. I wish I had a more interesting one, but I guess you just have to take what you get. Please review guys... my review box has been a little empty the last few chapters. Guess that is partly my fault though. PLEASE REVIEW! I'll give you a cookie and a more frequent update... :)

His hands roamed over her body, caressing every inch of skin. He'd touched her like this before. He'd seen her like this before. He'd done all of this before. Yet, it had that sense of being new to him because now, she was his in a way. He had no reason to hold anything back and he didn't. He smiled to himself as he heard her breath catch in her throat. It always happened when he nipped at her neck, right below her ear. God, he wanted her more than anything and it was completely obvious that she wanted him just as badly. He had been torturing her with his kisses and caresses for awhile now and it was becoming too much for the both of them.

"Tony... please... I can't..." were the only words that were able to escape Kate's lips as she begged him to stop the teasing. Ignoring her pleas, he ran his hands through her hair and kissed her lightly on the lips as he stared into her light brown eyes. "Please," she whimpered once more.

And that was all it took for him to give in. He'd wanted the first time they made love as a married couple to be nothing less that utterly amazing but he knew he had made her wait long enough, as well as himself. Stealing one more passionate kiss from her lips, he gave into her every plea. Every movement from his body caused sighs and moans to exit her mouth. The pleasures he was feeling came close to driving him over the edge multiple times and it took every single strength he had not to be finished within the first few minutes. Yet somehow, he found the ability to continue on and they made love all through the night.

It was almost two o'clock and Kate was still whimpering beneath his touches and groans left his mouth every time their bodies moved together in a perfect rhythm. It was then that he knew he could do this everyday with her for the rest of his life. Sure, all guys could have sex everyday. But this was... love. He could make love to her everyday for the rest of his life. He knew that if he didn't love Kate as much as he did, none of this would have mattered or been nearly as wonderful. Tony loved her with all of his heart and he'd give up the world for her. No doubt, he would feel the same way about her in fifty years as he did now.

The Florida sun shown through the window as Kate lay tangled up in the sheets. The smell of coffee awoke her almost instantly and she could hear Tony in the bathroom with the shower running. As she rubbed her eyes and sat up, she saw that he had ordered room service. Most of what was on the tray was just fruits because Tony knew how the smell of cooked foods in the morning could sometimes send her stomach churning. Just thinking about it made her feel sick and she had to take a deep breath before it went away. Thank goodness for a loving husband. Husbad... it hit her all over again; she was finally married.

"Hey baby," Tony said, coming out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around his waist. There were droplets of water shining in his hair and even on his chest. She just smiled. "Sleep well?" he asked.

"I don't know where you were last night, but I don't really remember doing much sleeping Mr. DiNozzo," Kate replied with a laugh.

"Well Mrs. DiNozzo, we are in Florida. We can sleep 'til noon and not worry about Gibbs calling us and telling us we have a case. Or there is an option number two."

"Care to explain?"

"You can eat some breakfast, take a shower and we can go for a walk out on the beach," Tony suggested.

"Isn't it kind of cold out?" she questioned.

"It's February in Florida honey. At sixty-eight degrees, it is still warmer than it is in D.C."

Kate ran along the beach in her shorts and long sleeved shirt as Tony began chasing after her. She kept laughing and screaming as the waves splashed lightly around her feet and Tony almost caught her.

"Remember Tony, I've always been faster," she giggled, teasing him a little.

"Oh really?"

He began to speed up and Kate realized she might be in some trouble. She could feel her feet sinking in the sand as she ran a little quicker in hopes of keeping away from Tony.

No chance. He loved a challenge and as he finally caught up to her, he literally swept her off her feet. Encircling his arms around her waist, Tony picked Kate up off of the ground and placed a kiss on her neck.

"Tony! We're gonna fall," Kate squealed as he stumbled and the two of them toppling on the ground. He almost landed on top of her, but was sure to catch himself, not wanting to hurt the baby.

"Maybe we shouldn't do that anymore," he laughed, leaning over her and running his thumb along her cheek. She smiled and kissed him as the tide drifted up beside them.

"This is just how I imagined it, perfect," Kate whispered, almost inaudible over the roar of the waves.

"It is perfect. Isn't it?" he replied. Leaning down, he placed his lips on hers and kissed her right there on the beach as the waves flowed along the sand underneath her back. There was no tongue, no forced intensity and he liked it that way. Simple. Tender. Natural.

"I love you Tony."

"I love you too Kate."

"Forever and ever?"

"Forever and for always."

Okay, I know the ending was kinda mushy, but I liked it. Picture perfect. So please, REVIEW. Please, please, please... I'm not desperate or anything. laughs

Chapter Title- I titled this chapter "Under Covers" because well, did you read the first part? They are on their honeymoon. Simple as that.
