Fortunate and Unfortunate Events #1-#12 to A School Dream

Sanvers- Fortunate Event #6 to A School Dream

Maggie and Alex are out of college. Mags has her job in the NCPD, Alex in the DEO and are in...

Winter, National City

"Babe!" Alex calls from the door. "Come on!!"

"I hate waking up at the asscrack of dawn," Maggie grumbles as she drags her suitcase to the door.

"We'll be okay. We're lucky we got this vacation, anyways. And plus, I got donuts and coffee while you were getting ready."

Maggie automatically perks up and hugs her taller girlfriend. "You're amazing, Danvers, and I love you."

"Tell me something I don't know. Love you, too. Now get your coat and come on."

"Ugh. Fine."

After almost having to drag Maggie out of their apartment, they walked down to the front of the apartment building and put their suitcases in the taxi cab.

"Airport, please." Alex takes both of their bags and stuffs it in as Maggie gets in with the donuts and coffee in hand.

Once Alex gets in, they eat their donuts and drink their coffee in a comfortable silence.

After going through all the TSA at the airport and board their plane, Maggie automatically curls up on Alex.

"Babe, you're taking my arm as hostage."

"Screw it. I'm tired and you're really comfortable, Danvers. So shut up and let me sleep on you."

"You do that half of the time anyway."

Maggie buries her face into her arm and mutters, "Don't care."

"Can I at least get my music in my ears before you take my arm?"

Maggie groans and lets her arm go. "You have two minutes."

Alex shakes her head at her girlfriend while she gets her phone and earbuds out. "You're a good negotiator."

"That's why I'm a detective."

"And you're an amazing detective who I love."

"Flattery will get you everywhere, Danvers. Except when you get pulled over by the police, or possibly me. Now, can I have my girlfriend's comfy arm back?"

"Well, I'm DEO personnel, the FBI to cops. Technically their superior." Alex sighs as she lays back and puts her earbuds in. "My arm is at your disposal."

Maggie retakes her position on her. "Love you, babe."

"Mmhm. Love you too, my little koala."

"I'm too tired to argue on that one. So just shut up and let me sleep on you." Maggie nuzzles her face into the crook of her neck.

Alex softly chuckles and lays her head on Maggie's and whispers, "My little koala," before closing her eyes.

Later at the lodge...

"Maggie, are you really going to sleep some more? You slept on me all the way here! And in the cab here!!" Alex complains as Maggie flops on the bed.

"Look, Danvers, you know me by now. You know I barely wake up at the asscrack of dawn for anything. But-" she waves her finger in the air. "Blame it on jet lag."

"I heard there's a hot tub."

Maggie's eyes go wide and her mouth into a mischievous grin when she sits up and walks up to her. "Oh, the things I've been wanting to do in a hot tub to you."

"It's still light out. Later. For now-"

"Rest and relaxation!"

"I was gonna say food, but you go ahead and do that. What do you want?"

Maggie smirks at her. "You."

"Mags! I'm serious."

"Well, so am I." Maggie tugs on Alex's shirt and pulls her close.

"You know, for a small woman, you're pretty strong."

"Yeah, I know. Shut up and kiss me."

Maggie leads Alex out to the hot tub by her hand, both of them in fluffy robes. No one else was out except for them.

"It's freezing out here."

"That's why we have on robes and about to get into this hot tub, Al." Maggie shrugs off her robe so that now she's only wearing a tank top and shorts. She steps up the steps and sinks into the hot tub, letting a satisfactory sigh escape her lips. Alex sits on the edge and puts her feet in. Maggie gives her a skeptical look.

"Danvers, you okay? You look like there's a lot on your mind."

Alex's lips are in a tight line and her eyebrows furrowed. "Yeah... yeah, there's just one thing."

"You know you can talk to me, right?" Maggie wades over to her, by her feet.

Alex smiles. "I know. And I'm going to."

"Not to pressure you or anything, but when?"

"Geez, that sounds exactly like pressuring," Alex says with a snort.

Maggie gives her a warm smile with her dimples. "You can tell me anything, Alex. I love you, and I will never judge you for whatever comes out of that amazing mouth of yours."

She raises an eyebrow at her girlfriend as she shrugs off her robe. "Really? You think my mouth is amazing?" She's wearing almost the exact thing as Maggie, except a tank top, a crop top.

Maggie eyes her abdomen before it disappears in the water. "And your abs, too."

Alex smirks. "Are you just dating me for my abs?"

"Nope. Well, that could be a reason."

Alex puts her arms around her neck. She takes a deep breath before saying, "What would you say if I asked you to marry me?"

Maggie's eyes go wide as she puts her arms around her torso. "I'd say shut up before I kiss you with all the love in the world, which would obviously mean yes." She narrows her eyes at her and the corners of her mouth go into a small, yet coy smile. "What are you saying, Danvers?"

"Marry me."

"Shut up." Maggie kisses her with all the passion and love in the world, just like she said she would.

<><><><>

The two slowly walk back to their lodge, bodies and hair wet from the hot tub, both of their robes open without a care in the world while Maggie holding onto Alex's arm.

Alex twirls her and brings her close when they reach their door, both of them with love-struck grins on their faces. "I love you, Maggie Sawyer."

"I love you, Alex Danvers." Maggie gives her a kiss. Short, but full of passion. "Can we go inside? It's kinda cold."

"You want me to warm you up?" Alex asks with a smirk as she unlocks the door.

She grins back. "Oh, I'd love that very much, my amazing fiancée." Maggie pushes her in and locks the door behind them.
