Posted by Kim on 2/14/2002, 10:04 pm Shifting her position slightly, Dara's movement disturbed Mac's sleep and his hand lazily stroked across Dara's lower stomach. It never ceased to amaze Dara how the slightest touch from Mac could trigger an erotic response on her body. And Dara swore she was going to check Mac's luggage for evidence of some popular blue pharmaceutical tablets, chuckling silently to herself as she replayed instances of Mac's stamina earlier in the night. "What are you thinking?" Mac asked sleepily after he observed Dara's smile through half-closed eyes. "I was thinking what a perfect night is has been," was her honest reply. "It's not over yet," Mac said seductively as he nuzzled her neck and his hand began roaming Dara's curvaceous body. Dara involuntarily gasped in surprise when Mac's body moved closer to her and she realized that he was fully aroused. Giving her a devilish grin, Mac's mouth found Dara's as he gave her a thoroughly possessive kiss. Rolling on top of her, Mac took her arms and positioned them above her head, molding her fingers around the openings of the design in the bed's headboard. As he moved down her body, Mac reminded Dara in a breathy whisper, "I do believe that I suggested for you to get a lot of sleep in Buffalo..." ~~~***~~~ After a day of persuading and entreaties, Felicia finally convinced Robin make the 80-mile drive from Port Charles early Monday morning and show her the location of Mac's cabin. Mac's car accident and the awful weather were the pretexts Felicia used for going to the cabin unannounced and uninvited - that and her insincere comment, "Mac really needs me right now; I can feel it." Felicia argued the snow had gotten worse overnight and it was possible that Mac and Dara were stranded there with a damaged vehicle with no way to contact anyone. And despite the state of their marriage at the moment, she proclaimed she would always be there for Mac, just as Mac would always be there for her and the girls. Felicia hoped that the unexpected arrival of his wife and niece would force Mac to face how unseemly his affair with Dara was and would pull Robin more to her side. And in the unlikely case that Mac still wouldn't come home, her pal Bonnie Fitzgerald would run a follow-up story of how Felicia's unselfish good deed turned disastrous when she found her husband and the ADA in the getaway bungalow. Grimacing at the thought of actually have to see Dara in the cabin, where she herself should rightly be, Felicia told herself that it would all be worth it if Mac would come home soon. With luck, she and Robin should arrive at the cabin by 11 a.m. at the latest.
Mac's slow, steady breathing and the sound of the wind blowing outside were what Dara heard as her eyes fluttered open. It was 3 a.m. according to the travel alarm clock sitting on the dresser. Dara looked over at Mac who was sleeping peacefully on his stomach with his arm draped around Dara's waist. She sighed and thought of all the things he had done this weekend to make it special for her - not canceling their trip because of Robin's surprise visit, winning over Janice, serenading her at the club Chances Are on Friday. But tonight, she was most touched when he brought champagne, chocolate-covered strawberries, and several photo albums to the bed with him earlier. The photo albums contained pictures and mementos from Mac's life before he came to Port Charles - pictures of his parents, family members, friends, and colleagues - Mac's world before he met Dara. They only made it through one album but Dara had the feeling that this was a side of Mac very few people knew, and he felt it was important to share this part of himself with her, and this gesture of his meant more to her than she could ever express.
