Game Plan Part 4

Note: True confession, this is not how I intended to end this, but I seriously have a hard time keeping these 2 clothed. I rated this thing T, apparently I know myself well enough, so here you go….

"A shower sounds good," Annie agreed quietly, almost shyly.

"It would be polite of us to share a shower so it is free when Calder gets back," Auggie suggested.

"That would be the good roommate move," Annie warmed up to the idea.

"Annie…." the tone of his voice made her heart stop and her pulse race, which seemed impossible if you knew anything about human physiology.

She kissed him then, differently than ever before, with a hunger and a lingering sadness she couldn't seem to quell. Suddenly their clothes were too restrictive and Annie stripped her shirt and bra off in one motion, reaching for Auggie's pants as he found hers.

"Did we talk enough?" he asked sincerely as he slid her jeans over her ass.

"Uh huh," she nodded as she returned her lips to his.

Auggie lifted her then, wrapping her bare legs around his bare torso and pressing her chest against his. He still had his jeans on, Annie getting distracted in the process, but he didn't care, he could lose those in the bathroom.

"Shower?" he managed between kisses.

"Turn around," she instructed and moved to kissing along the strong column of his neck.

"Straight ahead for about 10 paces," she guided him and put her hand out to guide them through the open doorframe.

Auggie walked them right into a support beam, Annie took the brunt of it with her bare back.

"Oooompf," she gasped.

"One of us has to be looking where we are going," Auggie teased and used the support beam to levy some pressure body to body.

"Sorry," she sighed against his ear, but didn't sound particularly sorry.

Annie enjoyed the beam at her back, it gave her purchase to use her hands for something other than hanging on and she moved one of them along Auggie's side to the waistband of his jeans. That was where she froze as the door opened.

"Dinner is…oh man," Calder declared but proceeded into the apartment.

Auggie stood still, wrapping his arms around Annie to shield her body as best he could. Annie tugged on his shoulder to turn them slightly and all Calder could see was Auggie's bare back.

"I am glad you two are getting along, but honest to God, I am going back out to get some booze, which I urgently need now and when I return, please be dressed," he said no more and Auggie heard the door close behind him.

"Oooops," Auggie grinned.

"We did get a little carried away," Annie released her legs from around his waist and slid them to the floor.

"Annie…" he began again as he felt her walls go back up.

"We have a mission and Calder will be right back," she stepped away from him leaving him isolated in the strange room.

"Calder will give us a half hour, trust me he is going to find the furthest liquor store possible," Auggie reached out to her and she took his hand, placed it on her bare arm and led him to the bathroom.

Annie reached over and started the shower, the warm damp air infusing the room quickly. She could feel the humidity on his skin as she ran a hand along his chest, over the healed scar of the bullet he took in Colombia. She kissed him again, she found it impossible not to and finally managed to get his jeans off.

"I want you so bad," his voice was ragged in her ear.

"Auggie?" her voice was so rational and calm it scared him.

"Yes," he said.

"Did you….? I can't believe I am asking you this. With Helen, were you…?" she looked everywhere but at him.

"Yes Annie. What I did with Helen was impulsive, but I wasn't stupid," he clarified.

"OK," she nodded, "OK."

"Just being near you Annie, is more than I hoped for these past few months. We don't need to…." he bit off the end of his thought as she pulled him closer, slid her body against him.

"We don't have much time, I need you Auggie, I need this," she whispered against his ear, her voice coming in pants.

"You keep doing that and we won't need very much time," he grinned and dropped his forehead to her shoulder, pulling her leg up and wrapping it around his hip.

The porcelain of the sink at her back was cool in contrast to the heat of Auggie's body and soon her one leg couldn't hold her anymore, so she maneuvered herself on to the sink for support. Her head tipped back against the mirror and for a fleeting second she wished their positions were reversed so she could take advantage of watching them in the reflection that was wasted on Auggie. The thought was quickly gone when Auggie increased his pace.

Auggie kissed her at all the right moments, they were fairly certain the rest of the building was deserted, but they really didn't want to call attention to themselves if it wasn't. Swallowing their mutual cries left them both a little dizzy and devoid of oxygen, but soon the kisses morphed into soft playful little nips.

"Shower, now," she murmured.

She took his hand, laced their fingers together and encouraged him to the edge of the tub. It was an old claw foot tub, the lip high and she stepped in first, brushing his knee against the lip so he would feel the height.

The water felt so good, hot and strong, beating on her head.

"Mmmmm," she moaned as the days washed off her.

She turned them so he could appreciate the water pressure and reached for the small bottle of shampoo she had put here earlier when she unpacked. Her hair was so long now that washing it was a bit of an ordeal, but it needed to be done desperately.

Once engaged in the act of showering Annie and Auggie were too wrapped up in the process and the desire to be clean. They handed soap and shampoo back and forth, brushing wet skin against wet skin, lingering longer than necessary but never moving beyond a caress.

Finally Annie reached past Auggie and turned off the water. She grabbed a towel and handed it to him before stepping out of the tub and getting her own.

"I'll get us some clothes," she offered after she helped him navigate the tub.

"Annie…." she was mesmerized every time he said her name.

"We should clean this room up and then find some dishes and get the food out, Calder will be back soon," she said and her tone wasn't sad or hurt any more, but calm and definitive.

"OK," he nodded.

She pulled him close enough to kiss, enjoying the feel of his warm soft skin under her fingers. Sliding them up to comb through the wet tangles of his hair.

"We're gonna be fine, right?" she wasn't entirely sure, but she certainly felt better.

"We'll get Henry," he assured her again.

"I meant us," she clarified not wanting him to miss any clues this time around.

"No more walking away," he reiterated.

"Right, but I am going to go get the clothes," she laughed and walked away.

Calder returned as Annie was setting out some mismatched glasses. Auggie had relocated his computer to the counter in the kitchen and he was checking on some things while Annie set the table.

"Anyone need a drink?" Calder asked as he pulled out a large bottle of vodka.

Annie and Auggie both raised their hands.

"You guys good?" he asked cautiously as he poured an inch of the clear liquid for both of them.

"We are, thank you for giving us some space," Annie said genuinely thankful.

"Glad to hear it," Calder said honestly as Auggie joined them and Annie handed him his vodka.

"To finishing this," Calder said and clinked his glass against Auggie's.

The End
