Damn right, he was good about sharing being on top. Hell, he loved it when she'd climb on top of him, Jim had no qualms about that. Right now he was just so wrapped up in her, and wanting to feel her so much closer, that he was reacting more out of instinct than anything else.

Selfishly, he wanted to reach into the pocket of his jacket as it rested on the floor so that he could turn off his phone. He didn't want to deal with calls, or texts, but then it dawned on him that those that could call him thought he was still out of town. And if the military needed him, well, that was a different story but he just hoped it wouldn't get to that.

Right now his focus was Carol. The way her fingers trailed along his skin, how she felt against him, and he gave a soft hum of approval. "The Avengers can wait." The whole world could wait, and he smiled at her, his own adoration for her clear in his features. God, he had missed her so damn much that it felt like it took his breath away from how happy he was to be back home. "I'm exactly where I need to be."

He would definitely work on that whole long distance thing, because he didn't want to leave her side again. He had been missing her for far too long already, and now that they were together...

No, he didn't want to leave her again.

Pressing a kiss softly against her collarbone, he held her close to him and couldn't help but smile. Because he was happy. He was so damn happy, and he never wanted this to stop.

Carol returned his smile as she gently brushed the back of her hand over his cheek. "That was really damn good," she said with a bit of a chuckle. Obvious and a bit of an understatement, but she felt like she needed to say something. That if she didn't the whole thing wouldn't have existed in the first place.

Her hands moved lazily up and down his back as she leaned up to press a kiss to his cheek. "I love you, Jim."

[jamesrhodes]

"It was," he agreed happily, then pressed another soft kiss against her skin. He lingered for a moment, as if he was trying to just breathe her in and take in every single sensation she was making him feel.

At her words, though, he turned to her. The love he felt for her was clear in his eyes, and for a moment he could only look at her as if trying to figure out how in the hell he had gotten so lucky. "I love you, too, baby."

She smiled at him for a bit, then leaned in to kiss him for a long time. Almost like she was trying to make up for those eight months.

When she needed to break for air, she went back to running her hands up and down his back. "So besides doing the whole bed thing, and then going to my place to feed my cat, what else do you want to do today?" Carol didn't have any plans, and he was the one who had been away from the comforts of home for eight whole months.

Damn that need for breathing. It was a silly thing to want to complain about, but he loved having her lips against his and he just didn't want to stop even if he knew that they needed to.

After pressing another kiss against her collarbone, he shifted his position enough so that he could be laying on his side next to her. Even if he wasn't on top of her anymore, he kept his arm looped around her waist and ran his fingertips softly along her skin.

"You know, spending my day with you is perfect for me. I need to make a few calls at some point to let people know I'm back, but other than that I really can't think of anything better than to spend my day in bed with you," he leaned in to kiss her shoulder, "and going with you to feed Chewie. I'm not keeping you from anything, right?"

[cheeseburgermarvel]

She smiled as he changed positions and she turned her head to keep their eye contact. Her hand continued to move his shoulder and chest. It was like she was unable to stop touching him.

"You're not keeping me from anything. I was going to go on patrol later, just in case, but I can let someone else do that." It wasn't just everyday that your boyfriend came home from deployment. "Right now there is nothing more important than you." Hopefully he knew how serious that statement was. That was right up there with "I love you" for how deeply she cared about him.
