Created for the femslash100 LJ community challenge #327, "star"
Pairing: Martha/Tosh
A light breeze swayed nearby tree branches as blankets covered two bodies shivering in the chilly night. Tosh's arms were protectively wrapped around Martha's body, as if insulating her from the dangers outside.
Within the cocoon of warmth provided by body heat and panting breaths, both women stared at the stars twinkling in the sky.
Martha whispered, "Look, the sky is clear enough to see Orion."
Tosh looked up at the sparkling stars following Martha's gaze to that section of the sky. "Beautiful."
"We aren't just fighting for Earth but also for everyone up there."
Tosh just held her tighter.
