A/N: I couldn't help myself with the Qatar Airways stuff... because I MIGHT HAVE AN UPGRADE ON MY FLIGHT IN TEN DAYS! So excited! On January 31st, I am undertaking a 28 hour journey from Perth to Boston with Qatar Airways (11 hours to Doha and then 14 to Boston) to attend the wedding of my friend Jordon, who I actually met... RIGHT HERE on FF! How cool is that?

AROUND THE GYMTERNET: TACO BELL ANYONE?

Princess of the Olympics. You know, we usually refer to the all-around Olympic champion as the queen of the Olympics, but after seeing the dress Jennifer Jareau wore at her wedding this past weekend, fairytale princess seems more accurate. 23 year old Jareau tied the knot with longtime boyfriend, William "Will" LaMontagne Jr on Friday evening in a beautiful ceremony in Pittsburgh, and I officially feel old. I remember JJ's first meet as an elite and she was positively the TINIEST fifteen year old I have ever seen in my life. You're telling me it's been 9 YEARS and homegirl is MARRIED? Anyway. It was all kept very under wraps on social media, with the first hint that a wedding had even happened being JJ's Instagram post on Friday night, showcasing Will passed out in his tux with a bag of Taco Bell, with the caption hinting that they didn't get the "wedding night" everyone assumes happens (it really doesn't, I can promise you are WAY too exhausted after the day of celebration to even think about that). I laughed so hard. Love a girl who's stacked to the moon on Olympic medals and is still as down to earth as they come. Wishing her and Will nothing but happiness as they move into their next chapter!

Don't mind me, just fangirling over JJ and Will. Is it normal to love a real couple this much?

|jareaumanar|

Probably not, but we can't help it. They're adorable. I want what they have. The way they look at each other is so sweet!

|henriettas-onodi|

I want to be them.

"Babe, where are we goin'?"

JJ turned, smirking at Will over her shoulder as she led him towards the lane. They had flown from Pittsburgh to Dallas, and were now making their way to the next gate for their onward flight. Outside in the dark of night, Dallas Fort-Worth International Airport was a hive of activity, floodlights illuminating the tarmac as baggage containers, catering carts, cargo pallets, and much more were towed around from gate to gate.

"JJ, can I have my boardin' pass now? I swear that border agent must have thought I was a complete dumbass because my wife had to carry my boardin' pass and passport"

Giggling, JJ stopped, turning to face him and stretching up on her toes to give him a kiss. "I just wanted to keep where we're going a secret for as long as possible"

Will chuckled. "Well, I think your time is runnin' out babe"

With a grin, JJ reached for his hand, holding her suitcase in the other and leading him towards a bank of gates at the end of the concourse they were walking through. When they reached the gate area that she knew was for their flight, she stepped out of the main walkway, leading him over to some empty chairs and gesturing for him to sit. Once they were sitting side by side, she opened up her travel wallet, sliding out his passport, inside which was tucked his two boarding passes for their onward journey.

"Here," she said with a smile, handing them to him and watching in anticipation as his eyes scanned over the two slips of card.

"Male… we're goin' to the Maldives?" he said incredulously a few moments later, looking up at his wife with an expression of pure glee. JJ giggled.

"Yes… but have another look," she teased. Will frowned, looking back down at the boarding passes to see what he might have missed. It took him a few seconds before he finally locked on to what JJ was wanting him to see.

"Business class?!" he exclaimed, making her laugh as he looked up at her again. "JJ, you have more money than sense!"

Laughing, JJ slipped her hand into his, leaning over and tipping her head onto his shoulder. "It's our honeymoon babe… I wanted it to be special"

"You're a crazy woman, and I love you," Will chuckled, turning his head and pressing a kiss to the top of her head. "Any other surprises I should be aware of? Are we gonna be personally welcomed by the President of the Maldives?"

"Not quite, but if you're this excited over business class, you might faint when you see our accommodation"

Will chuckled, shaking his head. "Your privilege is showin', Jayje, it's fuckin' business class. Sometimes I forget how much money you make bein' America's Olympic sweetheart"

JJ snorted, earning another laugh out of Will as he let go of her hand and draped his arm around her shoulders instead. "You act like I do stuff like this all the time"

"Nah, I'm just teasin'," Will said with a grin. "Still think you're crazy though. Even though I love you"

A little while later, they were the first passengers to be boarding the huge Boeing 777 jet, hand in hand down the aerobridge as the beautifully dressed Qatar Airways cabin crew welcomed them onto the aircraft. They were led from the main door to the business class cabin, one down each of the two aisles, immediately taking in the luxurious maroon tones and golden accents that filled the space.

"JJ… you have got to be kiddin'"

Grinning as the flight attendant who had led her to her seat took her carry-on, JJ was overwhelmed with joy as she watched Will stare around the cabin in complete and utter disbelief. For the business class cabin they were currently standing in was not just any business class; it was Qatar Airways' award winning Q-Suite. They were seated in two of the central seats, both seats flush up against each other, and from the reading she had done online before booking the flights, JJ knew they created a double bed once lowered to their lie flat position.

Completely in awe, Will slowly lowered himself down into his seat, not sure what to make of his surroundings as the attendant in the aisle behind him stowed his bag in the overhead compartment.

"Surprise," JJ giggled, sliding into the seat beside him.

"You… are insane," Will breathed, turning to his wife with a grin and leaning over to press a kiss to her lips. "I… what the hell. I knew it was going to be cool, but… this is fuckin' cool"

It wasn't long before QR732 was roaring into the sky, bound for Doha, Qatar, which lay some fourteen hours ahead of them. Their layover wasn't going to be super long, only a couple of hours, but knowing that the World Championships were being held in Doha that year, JJ was interested to see a little bit of the tiny country.

The meal service was quick to start once they were in the air, and everything they tried was absolutely delicious. After dinner and a movie, the two of them had settled in to get some sleep, the flight attendants turning down their beds while they got changed into complimentary pyjamas.

It was after a restless couple of hours that JJ found herself awake in the darkness of the cabin, the only light visible being the soft glow of someone's screen, and the light from the forward galley spilling out around the curtains at the front of the cabin. Will was asleep on his back, his head tipped towards the closed door to his left.

As gently as possible, so as not to wake him, JJ wriggled closer to him, resting an arm across his stomach and tucking her head in against his shoulder. The hum of the engines filled her ears, droning on rhythmically as she closed her eyes once more and tried to get comfortable. As she did, her mind wandered to years gone, making her crack the tiniest of smiles.

Her eighteen year old self would have never believed they would be here today.

It had been what felt like the longest journey imaginable, but finally, after three regular flights, a seaplane flight, and a boat ride, they were in pure paradise. They had been welcomed into the beautiful expanse of the resort by smartly dressed staff, before being shown to their suite for their stay, which, just as JJ had predicted, had further blown Will away.

At the farthest reach of the resort's curving overwater bridges, they were staying in the most serene and private overwater bungalow the property had to offer. There were no bungalows either side of theirs, offering the utmost privacy out on the sun soaked deck. A lush king bed sat in the middle of the bungalow, looking straight out through the folding glass doors over the bright blue ocean that lay beyond. The bathroom was kitted out in floor to ceiling glass, with a huge standalone tub positioned in front of the windows to take in the sweeping views. Out on the deck, two sun lounges, a day bed, and their own private infinity pool were the most exquisite finishing touches.

"Hope you're not tired," JJ said softly from the bathroom door about half an hour after the staff had left them alone. Will was bent over his suitcase, rifling through it in search of something, but turned at the sound of JJ's voice. When he did, his jaw dropped.

JJ had slipped into the bathroom while his attention was elsewhere, changing out of the clothes she had been wearing for their travel day. Now, instead of comfy leggings and a sweater, her petite body was clad in nothing but a delicate white lingerie set. Soft lace cupped her breasts, with decorative straps swooping up and over the top of her chest, creating the illusion of more cleavage. She could see Will's eyes roaming her body, not sure where to start first as they followed the line of her abs down to the apex of her thighs, where a white lace thong covered the most intimate part of her body.

"Like what you see?" she said, a teasing lilt in her voice as she pushed away from the doorframe and began to walk towards him.

"God… absolutely," Will breathed, clambering to his feet and coming to stand in front of her. His hands came to rest on her hips, her arms draping around his neck as she molded her body to his. "When did you get this? Why have I never seen it before?"

JJ giggled. "I bought it for our wedding. I wanted to wear it for you that night, but we were both so tired, it just never happened"

"Well, I might be tired now, but goddamn, I'm gonna power through," Will growled huskily, stirring a fresh heat in JJ as he dipped his head and caught her lips in a crushing kiss. JJ responded eagerly, lifting her arms up higher around his neck, only for him to pick her up easily and drop her down on the bed just a few feet away, making her laugh. Grinning down at her, Will kneeled by her feet, tugging his t-shirt up and over his head. He cast it aside before crawling over her, the two of them meeting in another passionate kiss, love and lust stirring tremendously between them even amongst their jet lag.

With the glass doors open and nothing but the sound of gentle ocean waves breaking against the pillars beneath them, they lavished each other's bodies. Will paid extraordinary attention to every curve, every muscle, every nook, every cranny, slowly working his way down her body and undressing her as he went. But eventually, neither of them could wait any longer. With command that only turned her on even more, Will lifted her legs, draping them over his shoulders before he pressed into her, eliciting a gasp of pleasure from her as he penetrated deeper than she was sure he ever had before. Then he was pressing his body to hers, pinning her legs between them as he began to slowly rock his hips into her. His lips found purchase against the curve of her neck, slowly and softly kissing the skin there as he built up a steady rhythm. There was no rush, no frenzy… just nothing but pure love and intimacy.

"God," she groaned, tipping her head back against the pillow as her hips instinctively pushed back up against him. Her arms were wrapped securely around his upper back, her hands splayed across the rippling muscles beneath his skin.

They stayed like that for what felt like hours, keeping a gentle pace towards ecstasy, neither of them in any rush to end this moment where they were joined completely as one.

"Keep doing that. Just like that," JJ whispered, tightening her arms around him as she felt the release beginning to build between her legs. Will obliged, maintaining his pace and rhythm as he lifted his head just enough to be able to see her face. Their eyes locked together, filled with pure love for each other in this particularly passionate moment. JJ couldn't help but let out a gasp, her mouth falling open as Will dipped his head down beside her once more. His lips brushed the shell of her ear, and moments later, his voice was filling her senses, soft and sultry, barely above a whisper.

"That's it baby... you're almost there," he breathed, nipping the edge of her ear with his teeth. "Focus on how it feels when I'm inside you"

A soft whimper escaped from JJ's throat, her nails digging into his back as he rocked against her pelvis with long, slow strokes that practically had her quivering on the edge of a release.

"Come on baby... I'm gonna make you cum for me," he said beneath his breath, tilting his hips up as he pushed himself deep inside her, right up to his hilt, the tip of his aching dick rubbing against her g-spot just so.

With nothing more than a soft gasp, she crested the hill, burying her face in the crook of Will's neck as her body shuddered through a soft yet ecstatic release. Her toes curled, her legs clenching against Will's upper back, her breath catching in her throat.

"Uhh… uh," she choked out, instinctively rolling her hips down in search of more pleasure. She rocked her hips up towards Will, noticing when his movements stuttered, his orgasm rolling through him with little more than a soft grunt into JJ's shoulder. Together, they kept moving, milking each other through the gentle waves of a beautiful release.

It was a short while later that Will had caught his breath enough to move. Carefully, he disentangled himself from JJ, before falling down beside her with a tired smile.

"We shouldn't have done that. Now we're gonna want to go to sleep," he chuckled. JJ giggled, shakily turning over onto her side and throwing one leg over Will's as she tipped her head to rest on his shoulder.

"Nothing wrong with that," she said softly, allowing her hand to trail across his abs as they both lay there, eyes cast out to the ocean outside. "I love you"

Will smiled, pressing a lazy kiss to her forehead, ignoring the thin layer of sweat glistening on her skin. "I love you too JJ. More than I think you'll ever know"
