The American And The Russian (Benny Watts) [The Queens Gambit]

Part 47 Cuddle

I stood in the room of the embassy looking out across the snow of moscow, Benny's arms around my waist and his head in my neck making me smile widely "Benny... You need to go have a bath?"

"I do" He says

"So why don't you?" I asked

"It's cold"

"its not that cold Benny" I laughed

"Maybe to you, it is to me" he says "besides, if I go for a bath then I have to let you go. And... if I let you go something bad might happen again"

"You can't hold onto me forever Benny"

"Yes I can"

"Go have a bath" I laughed pushing his arms away turning to give his lip a little kiss, they had given his hair a little trim and cleaned him up bandaging and fixing up his inguries from it all even if some of the scars would never completely heal not too unlike my own. He seemed upset at not holding me anymore as he had been attached to my waist the moment we got into the helicopter at the bunker and only parted from me once when they took him to a doctor and even then only because they didn't give us a choice, as soon as we got back to the room he held me and he hasn't let go all night. "I'll be right here, I promise"

"Okay" he nodded kissing me so sweetly and passionately before he went to the bathroom, he had kissed me like that every time since I found him again, I think Because he was scared, that any kiss could be our last. I returned my view to the city seeing the reporters gathering to find out exactly what happened as it was now known to the world I was found, and that we were held prisoner in moscow. I felt a chill around me so I went to the little hotel bathroom seeing Benny stood just undoing his jeans ready for his bath, I smiled going and wrapping my arms around him as gently as I could he smiled as I nuzzled into his chest wrapping his arms around me too

"Can I stay with you?"

"Forever honey bunny" He says holding me as close as he could "I thought I needed a bath?"

"You do,"

"Did you wanna come with me?" He asks "In my bath?"

"I would like to" I smiled

"Alright, come on then" He says kissing my head, He moved away and started getting undressed and I smiled getting my clothes off too while he climbed into the impressive tub hissing at the heat and at the water on his injuries, I finished off with my dress and went over to the tub

"Hi benny"

"Hi," He waves "You coming?" He asks opening his arms

"I am" I smiled

"You look beautiful"

"You haven't seen me naked before?" I laughed

"Not got this much of a look before. You really look beautiful" he says

"Thank you benny, you look very pretty too" I smiled climbing in the tub with him and sitting between his legs laying my head on his chest he smiled and wrapped his arms around me tightly, "You wanna cuddle for a while?"

"I wanna cuddle forever honey bunny" He smiled

"I know," I smiled and we sat cuddling in the cosy water for a good while so long in fact the water began to cool "we have stuff to do" I remind

"Like what?"

"We have press stuff, all the people who were looking for us? After its all done we get to go on the flight home"

"Okay, we'll go do it first thing in the morning" he says giving me as kiss

"If you're sure benny" I smiled "we going to stay in the chilly bath, or go cuddle in the bed?"

"Can we... stay naked?" He asks

"Yes benny" I laughed

"We should get out, it is getting really cold in here"

"Yeah, come on before it gets too cold in the room" I smiled climbing out and wrapping myself up in a towel and he climbed out too wrapping himself up and cuddling me tightly "Benny" I giggled

"Yes?"

"You are so cuddly today"
"I'm never letting you go, I have to hold you" He says "Can we go cuddle in bed?"

"Yes we can" I smiled tugging him back to the bedroom shutting the curtains I got dry and jumped in the bed with benny cuddling him tightly.
