Chapter Text

The following day after our wedding Abby and I hopped a plane to Greece for our honeymoon. We kept the destination private so we could hopefully have some much needed time alone and away from the public eye. I hired a private plane so that no one would photograph us at Heathrow and have any idea where we were flying to, and a private car to take us from the airport in Greece to the resort. We've been in Mykonos for four days already, just enjoying our suite on the edge of the property, we've swam in the infinity pool and lounged in the sun and even relaxing on the beautiful beach.
******
"Another day on paradise." Abby smiled as we relaxed in each other's arms on the swing bed on the patio of our suite.

"Another day in paradise with my amazing and gorgeous wife." I smile and turn my head to face her and she turns to face me as we kiss tenderly.

"What's the plan for today dear?" Abby asked.

"More of this. Maybe swim. And I have a dinner on the beach planned for the two of us."

"Dinner on the beach? That sounds wonderful." Abby says happily and sets up and then stands up, she's in a white bikini with a sheer wrap around her bottoms, he newly tanned skin stands out against the white.

"Where are you going?" I asked, looking to her.

"In the pool, you coming?" Abby walks over to the infinity pool and steps in after laying her wrap on one of the ottomans by the pools edge. The pool has a sun bed on one shallow edge and it's wide enough for two, your back is in the water but your head Is raised slightly, perfect for sunning. Abby lays down on it and I walk over to join her. The water is warm from the sun and the view is breathtaking over the edge of the pool straight out to the Aegean Sea.

"Don't fall asleep and get burnt." I mumbled as I was half asleep too.

"Mmm hmm, that wouldn't be any fun." Abby muttered.

"Come on, let's sit in the pool together or we are going fall asleep." I sat Abby and myself up and we walk farther into the pool and sit. It's only a few feet deep so I rest my back against the wall of the pool and wrap my arm around Abby's waist as she sits next to me.

"I'm going to miss this you know." Abby says as we look out to the sea.

"We can come back." I replied.

"No not Mykonos, well that too but what I meant is I'm going to miss this, us, you and I attached at the hip daily. When we get back to London it will be photographers, journalist, reporters, tours, filming, I could go on and on. We won't have a whole week to spend together like this again for awhile. Just makes me sad to think of that." Abby frowns.

"I understand, but we will always make time for each other. If we need some special time together, we'll make time for it. I'll cancel my appointments and you'll cancel yours and then we will have dinner at home together or just cuddle if you want. You'll always be important to me, my first priority in life." I held her tighter and kissed her temple.

"Yeah?"

"Always."
**********
We stayed in the pool a few hours talking and horsing around. We 're out now and dressing for dinner on the resorts private beach. Abby is wearing a beautiful white cotton sundress that flows with the slight breeze from the sea. I'm wearing a tan linen button up short sleeve shirt and kaki shorts, proper beach evening attire.

"Ready?" I take Abby's hand as she slips into her sandals.

"Yup." She smiles. We walk down the path towards the lobby and down to the beach where we find a circular linen covered table and two chairs set up for us under a canopy.

I pull out Abby's chair for her and help her scoot it back up to the table before I take my seat next to her. We are brought wine and fruit right away while our first course is prepared.

"To a wonderful evening." I raise my glass and Abby does the same and we cheer.

"It looks like it might be a beautiful sunset." Abby says as she picks out some fruit to nibble on.

"I love the sunsets here, prettiest I've seen in awhile. The way it hits the water and the sky is set ablaze with a burnt orange and fire red is simply amazing." I replied.

"That was lovely." Abby's lips curled up into a small smile.

"I try." We both laugh.

"This fruit is delicious, and the wine is amazing..." Abby chews on some fruit and mumbles, I laugh at her cute face.

We spend most of the dinner chatting about memories and the wedding gifts we have at home to unwrap and figure out where we will put it all. Dessert is served, it's a chocolate lava cake with a raspberry drizzle and two forks.

"Yummy, this looks amazing..." Abby practically drools as she picks up her fork. I pick up mine and take a piece and feed it to Abby. "Mmmm" She hums in satisfaction and chews. "Thank you love." She says when she's done, she then picks a piece and feeds it to me.

"Oh god this is amazing!" I cover my mouth and mutter as I chew. We continue feed each other until it's all gone and the last bite remains. I pick it up and feed it to Abby who smiles wide and kisses me when she's finished. I can taste the chocolate on her lips and I don't want to let go.

"Do I taste good?" Abby chuckled as we break for air.

"I think so but I'm going to need to take you to the room to find out more." I smile devilishly and stand up and take her hand to lead her back to the suite. We thank our waitstaff on the way back and give them their tips then race back to the suite quickly and fall into bed.

"I love you Abigail." I say between kisses.

"I love you Benedict." She breathes as we get wrapped up in the heat of the moment.

This is going to be an amazing marriage, I can't wait to see what it brings us.

Notes:

Thank you all for reading this, I never expected for a one shot where Ben meets a pianist to turn into thirty five chapters! I love writing these stories and that's why I'm continuing this for another series! I can't wait to see where they will go. We've started in London, traveled to Lyme Regis, been to the Swiss Alps and to the beautiful island of Mykonos Greece and I can't thank you enough for joining them on their journey. Till next time everyone!

Notes:

Sorry for all my spelling/grammar mistakes, I work on this on my iPod and sometimes spellcheck hates me!
