From here: The Door opens, revealing a rainstorm, and out of it stumble two drenched but laughing figures. They Skid to the floor and lay laughing and kissing each other for a long moment before, suddenly, one of them looks up.

His eyes widen.

"Molly... we're back. We're back at Milliways!"

The woman looks up and a soft smile crosses her face.

"We made it."

Then the two grin and go back to kissing.

Cain and Molly have returned to Milliways, wet, tired, and happy.

Molly gets to her feet, and holds out a hand to help Cain up as well.

"This is unexpected."

She's still holding that ring box.

He smiles at her and struggles to his knee again, removing the box from her hand and then removing the ring from the box. He gently takes her hand and slips the ring on, before rising and kissing her.

"We're home."

She smiles widely, impressed that he managed to guess her ring size so accurately. She kisses him long and slow, uncaring of who sees.

"We are! This beats a being caught in a rainstorm all night, doesn't it?"

She shrugs out of her pack and stretches. It's good to be back.

"What do you think? A meal or a drink before heading upstairs?"

They've been gone for two months or so, a little longer won't hurt.

He grins.

"A meal and a drink sound wonderful. Then we can collapse in our bed and just rest for a year..."

His eyes twinkle as he says it, but he lifts his pack and scans for a table, and sees one, and grins at her.

"Looks like that one is free."

She follows suit, and digs Mortimer out of her pack once they're seated, and sets him on the table.

"It's crowded tonight!"

She waves to a passing waitrat and orders two of whatever is on special for them, and a bottle of wine.

She watches him scamper away, and then takes Cain's hand in hers.

"Thank you."

Cain watches her go to the table, admiring the swing of her hips and the way her wet clothes fit over her bottom. He chuckles at the sight of Mortimer nearby.

He holds her hand and smiles.

"Thank you for what?"

She hold up her hand to show him again how perfect the ring fits.

"For this."

She leans over to kiss him softly.

"For that. For you."

He smiles gently, a soft look on his face when he watches her.

"You're welcome. And I return the sentiment. Without you... I am nothing. With you, everything is more alive, more powerful, more true."

He kisses her softly. The he whispers.

"And you have one very nice ass..."

She swats at his arm playfully, and reaches down to dig a towel from her pack, before realizing with a laugh that she can use her magic freely again.

"A HA!"

She pulls her wand from her bag and in only a moment or two, they are dry again.

He laughs at her obvious joy, but grins to show he is enjoying her happiness, not mocking her.

"I cant wait to see what all you can do with that. I know we have been together for awhile, but everything we went through back on Earth gives me more appreciation than ever for you and everything about you."

He grins.

One hand goes out and gently traces her face, until the wait rats come with their food. He chuckles and starts to say something about not being hungry, until his stomach interrupts him.

He laughs.

"I can see what you're thinking, just from the look on your face."

She's smiling slyly at him. She pour wine for both of them, and hold up her glass to him.

"To being home again. Together."

He raises his glass and his face gets a little serious, even with the smile.

"To being together, no matter where. You are my home, no matter where the winds take us."

He clinks his glass with hers.

She can certainly drink to that. And she does.

"I wonder how long we've been gone in bar time? There doesn't seem to be too many unfamiliar faces, even if I don't know them all by name."

She takes a bite of her food, and just...revels in being back home.

He smies and sips his drink, then digs in to the food.

After a little while of eating, he asks a wait rat if it knows when they left. The rat scurries away and comes back with a note.

You have been gone almost6 three weeks, Bar Time.

He blinks.

"Huh... weird."

He passes it to Molly.

"Three weeks! A little more than I expected, actually, compared to last time, though you wouldn't remember it. Usually time passes much more quickly in your world than it does here...three times faster, or more."

She sets the note down and shrugs.

"I hope Asar-Suti will let me go back to working in the gardens. I keep disappearing on him, without really speaking to him. I've only left notes."

Cain grins at her.

"I am sure he will. You are a good person. And you have definitely shown you can work and survive roughing it this trip."

He smiles proudly at her.

She chuckles at that.

"Yes, but that doesn't help him here while I'm off galavanting with you."

She takes another bite of her meal and smiles at Mortimer.

"What do you think Mortimer? This is going to be your new home!"

She's really grown ridiculously attached to the carved head in the short time that Cain's owned him.

Cain raises an eyebrow but lets it go. She has talked to the small head before and he finds it somewhat cute.

"I am sure Mortimer agrees that anyone would be foolish to not forgive you and take you back on..."

He grins. Then he glances around.

"It feels... weird to be back here, like... i is home and yet, it feels weird. Good, but... weird."

"I know what you mean. Getting back here was kind of abrupt, wasn't it? It's hard to take in all at once."

It does feel a bit strange to be back at last. She really hadn't expected a door to present itself so soon after they had decided they were ready to come back.

"I guess the Lanlord, or Bar were listening when we wanted to come back, or maybe it was just time..."

He thinks about it, then shrugs.

"Whatever the reason, I am glad we are home, and together."

He grins at her and leans over to kiss her.

Whatever the reason, she is looking forward to sleeping in her own bed.

She takes another couple of bites of food, and finishes her wine before pushing her plate away.

She rests her elbow on the edge of the table, and rests her chin on her hand, and just looks at him.

"I am in love with you."

He blinks, then returns her gaze and matches her movement, pushing food away.

"And I am in love with you. With every corner of my heart."

He smiles softly at her, and scoots his chair around a little to be closer to her.

They probably look disgustingly sappy and cozy together. The thought only makes her smile brighter.

"What do you say we take Mortimer upstairs, and turn him to face a corner so we can do naughty things to each other?"

A wide grins spreads across his face.

"That, my dear? Sounds very nice indeed."

He grins at her and rises, gathering his bags.

"That will give me a chance to give you another present I picked up in a town a ways back..."

He winks at her and starts forward.

"Another present?"

She gathers up Mortimer and tucks him under her arm as she follows him toward the stairs.

"What is it?"

He leans in and whispers in her ear.

"Matching mens and women's silk lingerie..."

He winks at her and unlocks the door, ushering her in and finding a place to shed his bags.

She grins at that, and shakes her head a bit.

"You're incorrigable."

It's not as if they'll be wearing it for long. But if it pleases him, she'll wear whatever he likes.

She puts Mortimer down on the dressing table, and turns him to face the wall, then turns and steps into Cain's waiting arms."
