He began kissing her, placing his glass on a nearby end table. His hands found her waist and began exploring her curves. He had been alone too long and well, so had she. Somewhere during their embraces and kissing, he dimmed the lights of the large living room and turned the switch to the gas function of the fireplace. They found their way to a shag rug that lay before the hearth of the fireplace. They were totally into each other and would make love right before the fire.
After they finished, they laid together before the fire. Doc managed to get a blanket to cover themselves in. He lay on his side, his left hand and fingers caressing and kneading her skin. After another kiss, he started reminiscing a bit.
"I do not like this place the way I used to, " he began. "I built it for another time, for someone else and for a large family. Sadly, the latter never happened." He paused briefly in thought, "My eldest, Emiko, wants to find her own path and the twins pretty much live on Med Force One. I guess I only stay here for my laboratory. I did, after all, have it built to withstand orbital bombardment to protect my work."
He sighed. "Nope. It is not the home I envisioned years ago. It is now cold, the old flower beds and vegetable garden replaced by evergreen shrubs and well, the large family never happened." He paused briefly and finished, "That was then, however, this is now."
He then kissed her and cuddled up to her, keeping tight to her. Softly, he said to her, "Please do not ever leave me. This home so needs a lady's presence."
