In Spite of All the Danger (Paul McCartney fanfiction)

Chapter 23: Heart of the Country

Paul had me in his arms from behind, lifted in the air. His laugh in my ear the first time we actually felt so care free in a long time. I felt his hot breath on my back as the sun shined down on both us. He put me down and I ran, he chased after me. Both of us barefoot and not caring that our feet were muddy. We just loved being with each other, that's all we ever wanted. I looked over at Mary who was surprisingly sleeping in her carrier under the tree. He picked me up again this time facing me, he kissed me lighty on the lips. I smiled down at him and looked down his sweaty bare chest. I loved being in arms still, the feeling I got could never get old. 

"I've had such a good day with you... just getting away from everything, out here in like nowhere," I said as he put me down. I took his hand tight into mine and just started walking down to the little lake. I looked over at Mary she was still sleeping. 

"I know.. I've had the best day with you and Mary too," He said as we down by the lake we stuck our feet in. He smiled at me nervously, I hadn't seen him like this since we first met. It made me love and adore him even more. 

"I really love you, Paul, I know I say it a lot it's just... that it's true," I said rubbing his arm he glanced at me hand on him. 

"I love you too, Dani," He said pulling me in closer to him and kissing me. The best kiss we'd had in a long time. I didn't want to pull away, I didn't want it to end. He glanced around for a second as our lips parted. "Let's do it, " He laughed as I felt him through his shorts against my leg. 

"Here?" I asked laughing as I looked on him. He shook his head pulling me into almost ready to kiss me.

"No one's around and Mary's sleeping so..." He whispered as if he thought someone was there. I laughed a little pushing my lips hard against him. Our lips parted for him just to utter a few words through his breath, "I take that as a yes,"

"Where are my shorts?" I ask Paul looking around as I stay laying in his arms. He sits me up with him on the grass. I saw his clothes and my shirt.

"Um.." He said slowly looking around. "I threw them somewhere..." I get up from his lap I can see him watching me more than looking at for the shorts. I rolled my eyes at him. 

"I gave you what you wanted already.. help me look," I laughed as he got up off the grass. "Do you mind?" He looked at me weird.

"What?" He laughed I looked at him, he ws completely naked still. He looked down, "Oh... my clothes. But who's going to see it?" 

"Um maybe our daughter?" He put his underwear back on and shorts. I got into the water, "What you doing?" 

"I think you threw my shorts in the damn water.." I said swimming over to what looked like my shorts.

"Well... did I?" He asked as I came up to th surface. I was holding them in my hands, I threw them at him. "Oh...  I guess I did.. I'm sorry, Dan," 

"Ugh you're such an ass sometimes," I said getting up out of the water. He handed me my shorts.

"You love me though," I slapped his face lighty, how could I not love that face. 

"Yes of course I do... just next time please just throw the shorts on the grass or something," I said and he smirked a little. I realized what I just said. 

"Next time? So you plan on wanting to do this again?" He laughed, I blushed a little looking up at the sky. The sun was shining right down on his face he didn't mind at all though. 

"I didn't say that..."

"But you implied it," I put my shirt back on  as he walked closer to me. 

"Implying and saying are two different things darling," I said as he took me into his arms and kissed me lightly. He pulled away a little and I smiled at him and pushed him in the lake. 

"What the hell?!" He yelled moving the hair and water from his eyes. I laughed as he pulled himself to land a little near my feet. 

"I-I just had to! I'm sorry... just getting a little revenge," I laughed as he pulled me by my feet in to the water.

"And now I'm getting mine.." He said as I fell into the water, he caught me. 

"Ugh I hate you.." I said as I slapped his face a little. He smiled, kissing my lips lightly. "But I do love you," I smiled at him as he held me in his arms tight.

"I know you do.. I love you too, darling," He said rubbing my back, I had my head pressed into his soaking wet chest. Mary started to cry under the tree. Paul picked me up in his arms as we got out of the water. He put me down under the tree next to Mary crying. I smiled up at him as he leaned down over Mary. He picked her up in his arms and just held her and she stopped crying.

It was getting dark out as we got back in the car I was exhausted. Mary was sleeping in the back seat in her carrier. It was still so hot, no wind anymore. We has the two windows down in the front. Paul had one hand on the wheel and one around me as I leaned my head on to him. He was so comforting, really the love of my life. I felt myself ready to fall asleep on Paul as a little breeze came in through the window. My hair was still damp but it felt good with the heat that was still outside. 

"I love you, Paul... please never leave me," I whispered pretty much almost half asleep. I had my eyes closed but I felt him kiss the top of my head.

"I'll never leave you, love," I fell asleep to the sound of the breeze and him humming.
