Mission: Shake Down Mission
Location: Executive Officers Quarters

Teaya left the party and headed back to their quarters. Dean said he would follow shortly; hopefully he wouldn't be long. Stripping out of her clothes, she put her robe on and then braided her hair down the left side. She was going to get in the hot tub while she waited for him.

It would be down to the wire of him leaving and getting there. Roughly about five minutes left or so. Walking briskly to get in the quarters. Giving a look around for her.

She had the champagne in a bucket and two glasses waiting for him. What better way to ring in the new year than in the hot tub with the love of your life. She set the holographic image of the new year ball from New York. She then called out to see if Dean was home yet. "Dean?"

Dean was about to call out to her, so that worked just as well. The steam from the bathroom gave away to where she was at, or had been. “I’m here.” Heading into the bathroom, to smile to her. “There you are, mi corazon,” taking the hint and stripping down.

Once he settled in next to her in the hot tub she kissed his cheek. "Look up. I set up the holographic ball for the drop " Teaya smiled at him. "Open the bottle babe."

There was a glance up before looking back to her. Reaching for the bottle and pulling it out of the chilling bucket. Turning it away from them to pop it, just in case. “Nice touch, on both things,” grabbing a glass to fill it and hand it to her, then fill his.

"Of course. You should know by now there is not much I don't think about. I want all the little and big moments to be perfect as they can be for us." They had one minute before the proverbial ball dropped. Teaya held her glass towards him. "May our ancestors always smile on us."

“I know you do, but it’s nice to hear anyway.” Leaning up to not only do that, but also so they could kiss after one. Nodding to her last words.

After they touched glasses and both took a drink. Teaya set her glass on the rim of the hot tub then moved even closer to Dean to kiss him tenderly.

Dean probably should have set his to the side as well, so he did. Leaning into the kiss and continuing it for a good long minute before breaking it. “Happy New Years, Teayana, I love you.”

"Happy New Years my Darling." Giving him a chaste kiss. "I love you too."

Leaning back he picked the glass back up, taking a sip. “You know there’s a few choice food we have to have some certain food items tomorrow, correct?”

Taking up her glass and taking a sip. "I already have our menu planned out. Greens, black eyed peas with ham hocks, cornbread and a couple of pies. Is there something else you need?"

Dean shook his head, “Nope, that will do. Just because some of us are human, not everyone does that. I’m sorry if I assumed otherwise.”

"Silly man." She flicked a little water at him. "I'm getting pruney, shall we finish this in the bedroom?"

“Yes, I’ll bring the bucket and the glasses.” Taking hers and setting both well out of the way. Getting out and getting a towel for her, holding it up.

Stepping out of the hot tub. "Thank you kind Sir." Kissing his cheek. "I do have a question for you." She then walked away and padded off to the bedroom.

Drying off a bit before wrapping the towel around his waist, Dean brought the three things in with him. “What’s that?”

Teaya finished pulling back the duvet and blankets on the bed before taking a sea on the side of the bed. "I was asked when we were getting married. I told Claire we had not set a date yet. So I was wondering if you had given it any thought."

The three items were set on her night stand and he sat down next to her. “I hadn’t really thought about it yet.”

"Okay" was all she said before picking up her glass and taking a sip.

“We have been slightly busy also, I didn’t want to just come up with something on my own as a suggestion. Easier to just us be going over it at the same time together.” Smiling to her and kissing her shoulder.

"I'm fine either way with it. Maybe we can discuss in the morning but right now I have other things to discuss." Teaya furrowed her brow and had her serious look going on.

Dean reached for his glass and finished it off. Setting the glass back again. Turning to her a little more fully, particularly because of the look on her face. “What would that be?”

She finished.her glass and set it down. " Well" she said as she turn to him to be square on "I'm not liking any of this” pointing to the space around them.

Giving a glance down he looked to where she was pointing, back to her, then down again. “Hmm. I think something can easily be done to rectify that.” Scooting over where they were touching and wrapping both arms around her, pressing his lips to her. “There, better.”

"Hmm, it's a start. However I think you can do so much better. Unless you're too tired." She gave him a sly smile.

“Oh do you?” Raising an eyebrow.

"I do." She giggled.

Dean was quiet for a few long moments, like he was thinking about it. Even though he really didn’t need to and wasn’t. Shifting rather quickly to turn her and flop on the bed with her and her half on top.

Letting out a bit of a squeel from the quick movement she.quickly settled herself completely on top of him and began slowly kissing his bare chest.
