As promised...
Things You Said Under The Stars and In The Grass
...
Jules Callaghan Braddock looked up at the night sky from her spot beside her husband, Samuel Braddock.
Her husband. He was her husband and she was his wife. They were a family. Finally.
Its been two months since they got married and she still hasn't gotten tired of it yet.
Two months since they got married, and finally they were on their honeymoon. It wasn't the one they planned, her being five months pregnant and all. But here they were, camping in the great outdoors. Laying on a blow up mattress underneath the stars. She wouldn't have it any other way.
"You know the one thing I miss about Medicine Hat is the ability to look out at the nights sky and see the stars." Jules told Sam as she snuggled as close as her five month belly would allow her to.
Sam pulled her closer to him, "That was the only good thing about Afghanistan, how bright the stars were at night. Matt and I would spend hours just looking up at the night sky after a tough mission."
"I spent countless of nights out in the fields by our farm after my mother died, just staring at the stars." Jules confessed.
Sam kissed the top of her head and said, "I know its hard for you, especially now, but I really want to know about this amazing woman that gave birth to you."
"And I know its had for you to talk about him, but I'd love to know more about Matt." Jules replied, lifting her head up to give him a kiss on the lips.
"How about we go back and forth. I'll tell you stories about Matt and you can tell me all about your mother." Sam suggested giving her a deeper kiss back.
Jules nodded and smiled in agreement.
"I know it's stupid, but I can't help up think that they're up there, watching over us." Jules whispered.
"Ya, Matt is probably up there, shaking his head at what a hopeless romantic I've become because of you." Sam kidded.
Jules punched him lightly in the shoulder, "Hey! Well my mom is probably up there in disbelief that I fell for an arrogant cocky sniper."
"Hey, you married this arrogant cocky sniper." Sam gave her his patent Samtastic cocky smile.
Jules punched him in the shoulder again, this time a little bit harder.
"Ow, ok, ok. So do you want to go first or should I?" Sam asked.
"It was your idea, so you can have the honour of going first." Jules once again leaned her head against his shoulder.
"Umm, ok." Sam pulled her closer and started with how Matt and him first met.
And thats how they spent the remaining nights of their honeymoon, watching the stars and trading stories about lost love ones.
The whole Matt/Ben thing has always bugged me! Continuity people!
And ok, its not total fluff...
