Chapter 34
They enter the front door to see three eager looking faces looking at them.
Olivia smiles at them and nods.
"FINALLY!" Three voices say at once. Wrapping M in hugs as they do.
Kincade smiles and says, "yes, finally...it's official. This calls for another drink. I think there is champagne in the kitchen...I put it there earlier today just in case we would be celebrating more than just a fine yet climactic party.
"I forgot...tomorrow may be hell." Judi says.
"Kincade you go back to the house...it is only 10. Ask Maggie to come for breakfast with the MacKenzies before we leave for London."
"I will lad and I will smooth over what I can while I'm at it. I am sure it will all work out once the sore feelings are out of the way."
"I am sure Callum and Kenna will recover from their hurt feelings eventually." Ryan says. "But then again you two are magnets for trouble so who knows."
"Mum tell us about coming to Skyfall." Judi asks as Kincade downs his glass of champagne and says his goodnights and leaves.
"Well it was a very long time ago…" M begins the tale of her journey north with the other James Bond.
For the next hour the five of them sip on champagne as M tells them all about playing with little James and keeping older James in line.
Of how beautiful Monique was and handsome and flirtatious both Bond brothers were. She told them a great deal about Charmian who raised James after the tragedies and how she remained in contact over the years.
James was shocked that she was at both her uncle's and parents funerals. Bond feels as though he should have been drawn to her somehow, but then he was only a child.
Finally she recounted the sad tale of James' death and then later of hearing of Monique and Andrew's accident.
The part that stood out most was the way M glowed when she spoke of being reunited with Nigel. How James introduced her to M and really helped make her career. The love she and Nigel had and how he supported and stood by her in the time of James' death.
"Basically that is the journey that led me back to Skyfall with all the people I love and the very good memories of those I loved and have since moved on. Now we should all go to bed we need to pack tomorrow before the MacKenzies show up."
"Good...finally. Come on future wife...let's go to bed." Bond stands and pulls M out of her chair and picks her up.
Bond turns to the family. "Goodnight all."
Judi laughs into Tanner's arm...she is still a bit drunk from the party and champagne. "They are totally going to do it...ha...ha...ha."
M looks down from her position in Bond's arms. "Judi...behave...young lady."
Ryan stands. "Really...Mum. From where I stand you are not in a position to talk. I for one will go to bed and call my wife to tell her the good news. She has been dying for my reports every night.
Tanner and Judi begin kissing on the sofa as M laughs cradled in her fiance's arms. M rests her head on his shoulder as he runs up the stairs to their bedroom.
Bond puts her on her small bare feet and begins kissing her. The stay like this making out leisurely like they have all the time in the world.
For once they do.
"James...are you sure about this?"
"God yes...I have never wanted to be married and now I want a ring around your finger claiming you and you claiming me."
"So I will remain the faithful wife and you will sleep with other women...and to be even more cruel...I may have to listen in on occasion until I retire officially."
"I told you M. I will try not to...I can manage to wait for the one I really want when I come home."
M kisses him deeply. They break apart for air and M puts her ear to his chest. "It will be hard to have you gone."
"You will have Judi and the kids to entertain you. Speaking of which...you have to stop being so loud during sex or you will traumatize the children."
M swats his arm and then pulls him to the edge of the bed. Bond pulls the zipper down her back and the dress slips off her shoulders to the floor. James opens his shirt and pulls it off.
M places her hands on his chest. M eyes smoulder at him as her hands trail down down the muscles of his abs to his belt.
Bond caresses her shoulders as he watches her admire his body. M's black lace bra the only remaining article she has on. Bond's hands go to the clasp and release her breasts as she opens his belt and trousers.
Clothing hits the floor as kisses begin again. Bond maneuvers M into bed and crawls up over her pausing for a moment.
"My future sexy wife...do you have any particular preference on how I ravage you this evening?
"I never thought I would say this 007...but you talk too much."
M pulls his face to hers as she kisses him with abandon.
They touch, kiss and fondle each other. M cradles Bond between her thighs as they continue the foreplay that they were unable to leisurely enjoy while up against the door of the kirk.
"I will never tire of making love with you James."
Bond kisses her again. "Are you ready M?"
"Oh...yes."
Bond pushes in gently and rocks against her paying attention to her moans and groans. The two of them move in rhythm. Bond suddenly rolls them over so M is on top. M leans over him and trails kisses on his face and neck.
M rocks her hips...causing him to moan. "M...yes...oh...soooo...close already."
"Not yet love." M pauses to kiss him deeply.
Bond strives for friction and release by thrusting upward. M sits up on him to still his thrusts. She looks down on her incredible lover. James has done so much to keep her safe and strive for their engagement.
"M...don't stop...please."
"I am just enjoying the view James."
James reaches up and pinches her nipples. He pulls her forward so he can take one of her breast in his mouth. Sucking and nipping and making her to move on him to move towards their release.
Soon they are panting and moving together as the pleasure builds and builds until they cry each other's name and M collapses on his chest.
They stay like this for a as long as it takes for their breathing to return to normal. M climbs off James making him groan as she laughs at him.
"Perhaps we should have just let you go to sleep after the night you had."
"Yes...you wear me out woman."
"I was thinking of the mercenaries not me, not this."
"I can't stop thinking of this with you M. The mercs were easy and Kincade handled himself well."
"James you did an excellent job this evening."
"I am just glad no one was hurt and that none of the guest caught on."
"Join me in the shower?"
"Yes…"
The water was cooling by the time Bond placed M on the floor of the shower.
Thing heated up again and even though M always protests him taking her up against hard objects…her screams were not from discomfort. Her arms wrapped around his neck and her legs wrapped around his waist.
Bond helps dry her and exhaustion overtakes them both. They fall into bed and curl up together.
"Tomorrow this all ends. My second trip to Skyfall...was even better than the first."
"I should hope so. You came with a man you love this time."
"Yes I did but you were here then too...I just didn't realize how much that cute little blonde boy would mean to me later."
"Kincade said I loved you then...so this...all this is the longest paused romance in the history of mankind."
M laughs. "I suppose you could be right."
"You didn't fall in love with uncle James did you? Charmian told me what he was like...it all makes sense...him being 007 before me. He was an adventure seeker...my father might have joined too if he had not found my mother."
"Yes he might have...as for the very charming James Bond...he moved through the secretarial pool faster than even you. He was handsome and rough...I was intrigued but I did not want to be just another notch on his bedpost. He asked me out once before asking me to Skyfall...Mary...a friend of mine at work was shocked he did because he was only known to ask a woman once."
"I can understand exactly why he asked you twice."
"Charmian was convinced he fell in love with me but he was so damaged by the death of his wife Tracy...I think he swore to never give his heart away again."
"But he would have given it to you...if you let him."
"But I had Nigel."
"Yes...Nigel. A man I only ever met once...the one who lent me his shirt and made me breakfast after breaking into your flat and professing my inebriated love for you."
"Yes. Stop sounding so jealous James. After all you did the same...drank yourself through the female population of London after Vesper."
"I drank myself stupid because I thought I could never have you."
"You enjoyed the chase...admit it."
"Christ it practically killed me. You were single for months and I couldn't take it...drunk that night I broke in after that mission and you shot me down...hard."
M lets out a small laugh into his shoulder as she enjoys the smell of him fresh out of the shower.
"We will get married here...in the fall. The sooner the better. Besides it will be small and I don't want to steal the limelight from Kincade and Katrina."
"What do you plan on telling them tomorrow?"
"The truth."
"Really?"
"They are part of your family...they could be cousins and Kincade is like your father. They will watch out for Skyfall while we are not here and cover with the townspeople."
"I am glad you are willing to trust them."
"They are your lawyers so a certain amount of silence is expected. Poor Kenna, she will not be happy about our marriage...she was all over you tonight."
"Really. I hadn't noticed."
M swats him gently as she laughs. "Come on...I saw the way she was looking at you. Ryan got from Fiona that she saw Tanner and Judi kiss and assumed you were free. I am going to have to deal with woman coming on to you right in front of me all the time. They will think I am your mum."
"Hey...I had to watch Callum hang all over you and parade you around the party as his very special lady friend. In that incredibly sexy dress...even the young ones were checking you out."
"James...sleep...we have a long drive tomorrow."
"Let's pack a picnic so that we can stop along the way home."
"I think you have forgotten one thing James."
"What...I will have food, a blanket and you and that is all I need."
"We will also have Mr. Tanner."
"ARGHHHH….Bill should go with Judi and Ryan!"
"The three of us are going to London and no...it is too soon for him to show up on her doorstep, after all Sam will be there."
"How will that go...should we follow them?"
"No, Ryan will be with her. Besides, you already likely promised to come save her should she have any trouble."
"Did she tell you...how did you…"
"M remember."
"Yes...you are but for how long?"
"I am going to play it by ear. I will report our engagement and see how they take it. If there is too much opposition I will step aside."
"You will give up being M for me?"
"You practically gave up your life several times for me."
"That is because I love you M."
"And I love you, future husband."
"That is the best thing you have ever said to me M. Until you stand in the kirk before our family and say I do."
M kisses him and closes her eyes knowing that no bad dreams will intrude on her sleep tonight.
The end.
I thank you readers that stuck with this story and for your nice reviews.
I apologize for the length of this...I never thought when I began that it would become this long.
