Chapter Text
When awareness returns Marta is conscious of the fact that she's in a super cramped position on a tiny fucking daybed that's probably older than both of them combined.
"Ransom," She croaks trying to wiggle (and not touch him because they're both super naked). "Should-should we get off this thing before it caves in?"
"Hmm?" Ransom raises his head and looks down at her blearily. "We'll be okay. I've had girls over on this thing before."
"Oh my god!" Marta sits up abruptly dragging the tiny throw over her breasts while Ransom laughs at her expression. "You're disgusting!"
Ransom raises himself up on one elbow with enough room for her to sit back against the backrest without actually giving her the space to escape his stupidly hot body. "No I'm not. I'm FUCKING INCREDIBLE!"
Her face is on fire. She plants her face in one palm and mutters a list of muffled expletives in Spanish that only make Ransom chuckle harder. "You're never going to let me forget I said that are you, you asshole."
"I could," he says in a surprisingly warm tone that makes her pull her hand away from her face. "If you let me take you to dinner?"
Marta squints at him, "What is this?"
Ransom shifts over onto his side with a little huff. "Ya know," he says propping his head up on one fist. "I pictured this going a lot better."
She can't help the little grin that tugs at her mouth, "I don't know. I think this wasn't awful."
"Imagine how much nicer it'd be if we got something to eat before doing it. We'd really be able to put our backs into it."
"And that's what dinner is," Marta says mirroring his position so they're grinning at each other like a pair of idiots. "Fuel for this fuck buddy arrangement you're trying to lure me into?"
"You're so cute when you use big words like that." The pupils in his big blue eyes are the size of dinner plates. He's suddenly he's cupping her cheek and kissing her again. And what the hell he's a good kisser why not get some action out of whatever the hell this is.
She giggles when he rolls her onto her back and starts kissing her neck.
