> Just Another Day in Paradise > by TechnoViking > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Chapter 1 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Mac let out a sigh as he dropped rather unceremoniously into his lazy boy and ran a large hand through his thick blonde hair. He was exhausted after a long day, but in spite of his tired state he couldn't help but smile across the room at his wife. “What are you smiling at?” she said through a smirk of her own. “You,” was all the response he gave causing her snort in a distinctly unladylike fashion as she stood up, but this only caused him to smile broader. “Of course, I am pretty awesome,” Rainbow responded in her typical fashion while she crossed the room. “So, did the kids give you much trouble?” she asked as she sat on the arm of his chair. “Nope, I don't know why you have such a hard time when you try and put them to bed,” he said smirking up at her. “What can I say, I'm the fun parent they have a hard time taking me seriously,” she said flippantly as she leaned back across Mac's lap and playfully pinched his cheek “But they always listen to daddy,” she said through pursed lips in a playfully cooing tone. Mac chuckled as he took her hand in his and placed a gentle kiss to her fingers and stared into those striking magenta eyes. Rainbow let out a rather reluctant giggle at the gesture, Mac was the only one could get this sort of reaction out her. While she hated feeling or acting girly in most cases, she absolutely adored it when Mac made her feel this way. “What's gotten into you tonight?” Rainbow laughed, Mac held her hand tightly as he continued to gaze lovingly into her eyes. “I've just been thinking lately.” “About what?” “Just how lucky I am to have you and the kids,” “You big goof,” she said as a renewed smile graced her lips. Rainbow sat up and placed a kiss on her husband's cheek “You are pretty lucky to have landed a woman as awesome as me,” she teased him in her normal cocksure attitude. “But you're not just lucky…” she began as she expertly spun and twisted herself around and found herself straddling his hips “You're mine,” she finished in a hushed tone as she gripped the collar of his work shirt and pulled him close and stared at him with half lidded eyes filled with desire. Mac could only smiled at her cocky attitude. “Why Miss Dash are you trying to seduce me?” he asked in a playful tone. “Maybe,” she mewled as she placed a soft kiss to his neck “Come on how long has it been?” Rainbow asked placing another kiss on the corner of his mouth. “Too long,” he breathed back in a husky voice, his hot breath on her neck causing a shiver to run up her spine. Her lips found his in a passionate kiss as she felt one of Mac's hands tangle itself in her multi hued hair, trying desperately to pull her even closer. Moments later they were forced to break apart for air “The kids are asleep, I think we might be a little overdue...don't you think?” she whispered hotly in his ear. Without a moment's hesitation Mac stood up and scooped Rainbow into his arms bridal style and he was rewarded with a small squeal of delight from his wife as she wrapped her arms around his neck. Mac moved silently down the hall to their room and opened the door deftly with his foot. He tossed her onto the bed eliciting a laugh from her as she recovered and propped herself up on her elbows. “My, my you certainly seem eager tonight,” she teased before she felt his lips crashed into her's. She returned his fervor, wrapping her arms around his neck. Mac's hand began to snake its way up under her tank top, his callous fingers gently touching her abdomen causing her to squirm slightly. But before he could reach his goal Rainbow snatched his hand and pulled it tight to her chest. She smirked up at him as he gave her a slightly confused look. With a swift buck of her hips and skillful roll Rainbow found herself straddling Mac's hips for the second time with his hand pinned above his head. He appeared surprised for a moment before smiling up at her. Rainbow leaned in close and whispered in his ear “You should know better by now…” she placed a trail of light kisses down his neck before returning to his ear “I'm always on top,” she finished with a soft bite to his neck as his chest rumbled with a quiet chuckle. God she loved the sound of his laugh. Rainbow released Mac's wrists as her hands set to the task of unbuttoning his shirt. She worked swiftly and pulled his the offending garment off with a sense of urgency. It really had been far too long since they had time alone together and Rainbow’s own eagerness was starting to get the better of her as she ripped her tank top off and tossed it across the room. “Who's the eager one now?” Mac said wearing a grin. “Shut up,” she half hissed as their lips meet again. She brushed her to tongue across his bottom lip almost desperate to gain access, luckily Mac did not keep her waiting. Their tongues battle for dominance as the heat between them grew. Rainbow felt Mac’s hand trail up her back and grip the hair at the base of her skull and gave it a light tug send a jolt up her spine. He knew exactly how to get a reaction out of her. “You don’t fight fair,” she muttered breathily as they broke apart for air once more, and she pulled her shorts off haphazardly and threw them to the floor where they joined her tank top. Now only in her bra and underwear she took note of her husband with a smirk “You’re a little overdressed...don’t you think?” and in a flash she unbuttoned his jeans a pulled them free leaving him only in his boxers. Placing her hands gently on his jawline Rainbow pulled Mac close and touched their foreheads together. “I want you,” she whispered. “You want me to what?” he responded back with a smile, Rainbow hated when he did this to her. “Come on Mac don’t do this,” she almost whined in his ear. “Come on, I love it when you talk dirty,” he teased as he ran a finger up her spine. “Mac…” “Say it,” “ I want you to fu…” Rainbow never finished her sentence. “Mama, Daddy,” a small voice called from out in the hallway. The pair quickly broke apart and swiftly redressed in their nighttime attire, Rainbow made her way quickly to the door as it was pushed opened by a pair of tiny hands. In the doorway stood their youngest daughter clinging to an old beat up stuffed T. Rex. “Honey what’s wrong?” Rainbow asked warmly as she knelt down in front of her and pulled her daughter close. “Rexy had a bad dream...” she said through a small sniffle holding the beat up dinosaur to her mother. Mac couldn't help but let out a small chuckle . This child was very much her mother’s daughter. From her prismatic hair right down to her stubborn attitude. “Well I guess you and Rexy with have to spend the night with me and daddy,” she said scooping her child up in her arms and brought her over to their bed and laid her down in the middle of mattress. “There we go, nothing to worry about, nice and safe,” she said as she tucked their daughter in. Rainbow looked up at Mac who was smirking at her. Despite others may think, to the contrary Rainbow’s rather gruff personality she was an amazing mother, and Mac loved it when her maternal side came out. “Looks like we’re gonna have to hold off big guy,” Rainbow whispered as she lay down next to her daughter. ‘Don’t worry about it’ Mac mouthed wordlessly as he joined her. The pair lay in silence as their daughter slept soundly between them. Very slowly and gingerly Mac placed his hand on his daughter's head and ran his hand through her hair as she slept soundly. He took his hand away and gazed at his youngest as she clung to her old beat toy, this night may not have ended as the way thought it would but he wouldn't it any other way. He was truly a blessed man. As he was lost in thought another hand took his own. Mac’s eyes moved from his daughter to his wife who a smiling warmly at him. “What are you smiling at?” he whispered. “You,” was all she whispered back causing Mac to chuckle. “Just another day in paradise,” he muttered as he began to drift off to sleep. “No place I’d rather be.”
