As the door closed, Fergus held Maggie's cheeks and kissed her hungrily.  Maggie's hand went to his waist as he guided her towards the bed, both of them stepping in time.   

As they stood at the end of the bed, Maggie hurriedly tried to take off his clothes, giggling as she did.  Fergus did the same and took off her dress and corset.  As soon as it was done, Fergus picked Maggie up and she wrapped her legs around his waist.  Sitting down on the bed, they both continued to kiss.  Not long after, Fergus flipped Maggie over so he was on top of her.  The night went on and was full of the ecstasy of love...
------------

After a few more rounds, the morning light shone through the shutters on the windows on the hut they were in.  Once they woke up and got dressed, they both left the huts to head back to the ship where all of the crew is, including Jamie and Claire.  

As they head onto the ship, Fergus and Maggie, hand in hand greet Claire and Jamie.  All with smiles on their faces, Claire takes Maggie aside and leads her below deck to Claire's cabin.  

As they begin talking, Claire asks Maggie about how she is feeling.  

"Like an angel sent from Heaven," She replies dreamingly. "I feel so lucky to have Fergus as my husband. Legally." 

"I know how you feel, at first with Jamie, I didn't love him when we married, but it grew over time and we are now inseparable," Claire said to Maggie.  

"I can see that.  Jamie is always talking or thinking about you," Maggie responded, "I hope Fergus is like that when we are your age."

"Of course he will, he looks at you like you're the moon and his stars," Claire said placing a hand on Maggie's.  

"Thank ye, Claire.  For everything you have done for us," Maggie said.  "You truly are the mother I barely had."

As tears formed in Claire's eyes from Maggie's comment, the two hugged.  

"I am glad to call you my daughter," Claire said back to her, "You truly are like my own daughter, Brianna."

Sensing that it was a sad subject, Maggie decided not to press for information about Brianna.  

"Maggie?" The two women heard the French accent coming down the hall.  

"In here, Fergus," Maggie responded.

That night in their own cabin, Fergus and Maggie breathed heavily on their bed after their sensual adventure.  

"I will never get tired of doing that," Fergus said to his wife.  

"I know you won't," Maggie responded with a smirk.  

"I am so in love with you, Maggie," Fergus said, "I cannot wait to have children with you."

"Fergus, I want to wait a year or two, before children," Maggie replied.  

After a moment to digest the information, Fergus nodded and said, "Ok, If that is what you want."  

"I want you all to myself for a while," Maggie said, hugging him.

"Well in that case.." Fergus said with a smirk once again as they resume their adventure..

-----------

The next morning, the pair awake to the crew readying to make port.  Meeting up with Claire and Jamie, Maggie and Fergus await their leave of the ship.  

"How are ye both?" Jamie asks.

"Very well, Milord," Fergus replies with a smile, as Claire and Maggie share a look with a smirk.  

"We have made it Jamaica, we can find Ian at last," Jamie replied. 

After docking, Jamie meets a man who welcomes the family to Jamaica and invites Jamie and Claire to the Governor's ball that evening.  As they find the information, the older couple shows reluctance and tell the man that they are looking for Ian.  However, the man speaking to Jamie and Claire tells them that a ship holding slaves came to shore about a week ago and he suggests that they should inquire about Ian at the slave market.  

After travelling to the slave market, one of the traders tells Jamie that the Governor had brought the slaves from a ship, and Jamie and Claire decide to go to the party after all.
