Tony and Michelle have a picnic, in which they discuss potential baby names.

Tony and Michelle walk outside to the lake with a picnic basket and a blanket. Leading her to “his” tree, Tony places the picnic basket on the ground and helps her unfold the blanket. It’s a nice day outside, despite the obvious presence of doom and woe.

She takes the bag and opens it, she chews one thoughtfully. "I ran this morning, I can have a few chips. How about yourself?"

[iwasalevel6.livejournal.com]

"Haven't had any chips yet." He bites into a cookie.

[chelleuncurled]

She laughs, "Sorry, I forgot how cookies were now considered a health food."

[iwasalevel6.livejournal.com]

"I dunno." He hands her a chocolate chip cooke. "This one has chocolate in it. Isn't that supposed to be healthy?"

[chelleuncurled]

"Is that what they're saying this week?" She takes a bite and closes her eyes. "Thought you didn't like chocolate."

[iwasalevel6.livejournal.com]

"I don't." He holds up a sugar cookie.

[chelleuncurled]

"You need to live a little," she looks in the basket and pulls out another cookie. Macadamia nut. "Try this."

[iwasalevel6.livejournal.com]

Tony grins at her and takes a bite into the cookie. "Hmm. This is great."

[chelleuncurled]

She grins, "Sometimes a little experimentation is a good thing."

[iwasalevel6.livejournal.com]

He leans over and kisses her, a bit of cookie crumb still on his lips.

[chelleuncurled]

She kisses him back and touches his face.

"I thought the point of being outside was to not do this..."

[iwasalevel6.livejournal.com]

Tony places his hand behind her neck and brushes his lips against hers. "I can't kiss you outside?"

[chelleuncurled]

Her lips curve against his, "I thought we were going to try to talk,"

[iwasalevel6.livejournal.com]

"We can talk," and he gives her a light, but lingering peck on the lips, "but what about?"

[chelleuncurled]

She can't even believe she's about to say this..."Yesterday was father's day."

[iwasalevel6.livejournal.com]

"Yeah?" He looks her in the eye.

[chelleuncurled]

"With all these...kids around here," she looks down for a moment.

[iwasalevel6.livejournal.com]

He places his hand on her cheek, his thumb rubbing against her skin. He's keeping is expression steady.

[chelleuncurled]

She reaches for his other hand, her thumb rubbing his wrist. "I was playing with this little boy a couple of weeks ago. He was actually pretty amazing but, I thought for a moment...I want that."

[iwasalevel6.livejournal.com]

And now he can't help but grin. "You want..."

[chelleuncurled]

She grins and nods, "I want a family."

[iwasalevel6.livejournal.com]

He wraps his arms around her, kissing her cheek. His breathing is a little heavy, and he can't help but smile. "So do I."

[chelleuncurled]

She closes her eyes and hugs him back. "I...I wish we didn't have to wait, but we do..."

[iwasalevel6.livejournal.com]

"Hey, it's only a few months. We can wait." He begins to run his fingers through her hair.

[chelleuncurled]

She leans her head against his shoulder, "I don't want a future with anyone but you."
