Reality outweighs fantasy (PG-13, Mick-Beth)

[Fleur de Lisa]

Jen--you continue to be so supportive and sweet, thank you

marigold- Thank you for your kind words. You are such a sweetie!

Alle-- it's easy to be inspired in that way when it's Mick!

You would think after so many nights, and yes, days, of dreaming about this man, that I would have some kind of inner control over my emotions. You would be wrong.

Looking at his face. My God, that face. The eyes that seem to hold more than what human eyes hold. The color that changes according to mood, the fact that I cannot breathe while looking at him looking at me. The fact that he knows all this, you would think I would care, but wrapped in his embrace, that is the furthest from my mind.

OooKaaay!! I remembered that!! My thoughts exactly!!

Maggatha--- You seem to resurrect this every year or so! I am almost embarrassed when I see it pop up in active topics. And now you have a person to text connection! Lucky gal

BEM-- You are too kind. This was purely a whim The result of reading lots of wonderful ML fanfic by ridiculously talented authors here. You are correct---we have a treasure trove of talent here.

And by bumping this, you've shared the gift with us, too! Thanks Tula! And thank you, dear Fleur, for writing this gorgeous in-the-moment description of Beth's first time with Mick. Wow. Reality may outweigh fantasy, but you sure gave us a wonderful fantasy!
