Las Vegas, Late Friday night

[izzyalienqueen]

School was starting soon, so Isabel was trying to fit in as many shifts as she could since she was definitely going to be cutting her hours back once she was carrying a full load of classes. Unfortunately that meant that other then meeting with everyone yesterday and a quick and handwavey lunch with Savannah earlier in the day, Isabel really hadn't been able to take advantage of the suite's luxuries - well other then coming in late late late the night before and passing out on the very cushy mattress after a double shift.

It was late when Isabel finally made it back to the room. Wyatt wasn't around and she hoped that meant he was out having some fun even if she wasn't there. For a moment she considered calling him, but the allure of the super deep bathtub and a packet of bath salts was too strong. Isabel was going to relax.

[Yeah, who do you think it's for? ;-) ]

"It's easier then wet leather," she laughed, giving him a push to help him out of the tub. "Come on. You can do it. I'm waiting."

And while she was waiting, she'd add a little more hot water and some more bubbles.

Wyatt managed to climb out of the tub without falling on his ass. The shirt came off easily, but the jeans were a little harder to peel off. The maids wouldn't be happy about all the water on the floor when they came to clean.

Clothing removed, he got back into the tub, maneuvering himself to settle beside Isabel. "Better?"

Isabel would be doing some cleaning before she let housekeeping into the room. No need to piss off fellow staff members.

"Perfect," she said, leaning back and closing her eyes.

"I'm sorry I haven't been around much."

"Missed you," Wyatt murmured, picking up a washcloth and soaking it with water so he could draw it slowly down Isabel's arm. What? He was helping her wash up, really.

"Missed you to." Very much.

"Going to wash my back as well?" Not that she was complaining. Far from it.

[blessed_twice]

"I'll watch every inch of you," Wyatt teased, though he adjusted his position so that he was behind her and her back rested against his chest. All the better to grope her. Wash her.

Even though she loved the position they'd wound up in, Isabel knew an ulterior motive when she saw one, she grabbed Wyatt's hands and wrapped them around her, holding on tight. "Later," she said. "I want to talk to you first."

[blessed_twice]

"About what?" Wyatt said, resting his chin on her shoulder.

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"About what Savannah had to say," Isabel answered, squeezing his hands. "You didn't say much about it. I know it's not us. But it's still weird to hear."

[blessed_twice]

"Yeah," Wyatt said, frowning. "I didn't know what to say. It was just so wrong."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

He didn't know the half of it. Fortunately Savannah had waited till lunch to tell Isabel that bit of the story. "Extremely wrong. You've been such a huge part of my life for almost two years now. I can't imagine not being able to lean on you."

[blessed_twice]

He kissed the side of her head. "Me neither," he said. "I know it sounds corny but you give me strength. Pushing you away would be the worst thing I could do."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"It's corny, but it's true," she told him. "I feel the same. And just so you know, pushing me away would be bad. I'd kick your ass if you tried."

[blessed_twice]

"Good, I'd want you to," Wyatt said. "Here, there, any world, I need you."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"You need me to keep you on the straight and narrow," Isabel teased.

[blessed_twice]

"Nobody else was up for the job," Wyatt said, kissing her shoulder.

"Lucky for me," Isabel replied, tipping her head to expose her neck.

[blessed_twice]

You didn't have to ask him twice to indulge in some neck nibbling. "The women of the world's loss, your gain," he said.

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

Isabel caught her breath, enjoying the nibbles. "And I'm thankful for it every day."

"One of these days we need to go skinny dipping."

[blessed_twice]

"They have a pool here, right?" Wyatt said. "Or, wait, how about a pool at a hotel where they don't know you?"

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"Thank you but no," she shuddered. "I'd just as soon not put on a show. That's what would happen considering half the hotel rooms on the strip over look the hotel pool."

"I was thinking maybe the quarry, if we make it back to Roswell before the weather gets too cool."

But for the moment she was quite content where they were.

[blessed_twice]

"Not too difficult when you have the Angelic Travel Services at your fingertips," Wyatt said.

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"Maybe one night next week?" Isabel wondered. "You can get everything set up then come get me when my shift is over? The Persiads peak this week."

[blessed_twice]

"Definitely sounds like a plan," Wyatt said. "We can't miss those." Well, they couldn't until they started getting frisky. But that would never happen, right?

Bookies in Vegas, who normally take bets on everything, wouldn't touch that bet.

"No, we can't. But that's a few nights away." Isabel turned so that they were chest to chest, sending a small wave of water over the edge of the tub. "We've still got tonight."
