Title: Honeymoon
Spoilers: Post Crystal Skull.
Rating: PG13
Disclaimer: They don't belong to me. Just borrowing.
They honeymoon in Mexico.
Not for them the skyscrapers begining to dominate Acapulco, though they do watch people risking their lives diving from cliffs. Its just that the divers are them. Once escaping Indy's own past sins. Once for the sheer love of life that you only ever taste when you're a hairsbreath away from death.
Not for them the guided tour. They could guide tours themselves. Besides, the rest of a group would have got in the way of finding a city new to archeology in the rainforest of Chiapas.
Not for them the luxury hotel. They make love in a hammock. A matrimonial but still a hammock. And yes, it is harder to do it in a hammock when neither of you are youngsters anymore, but when bodies and souls know who and what they want, who needs anything other than each other.
They've lost too much time for anything other than being with each other, relearning each others hearts and skin, the look in his eyes when she touches him just right, the look in hers when he sweeps her off her feet and kisses her like he never wants to stop.
They've lost too much time, but still found each other before its too late.
They've both lost too much not to appreciate that grace.
They were both dumb enough to lose too many years together.
They're both wise enough to know that maybe they both needed those years, those other people and the things they've done, the lives they've touched and those they've loved and lost to reach the glory that is now.
And they are neither of them going to waste a moment.
They choose to honeymoon in Mexico.
They choose above all else, to honeymoon every day for the rest of their lives.
If their idea of a honeymoon is different to most peoples, it is above all because it is theirs and because they love each other and finally have each other again.
And that - and Mutt - is all they'll ever need.
I hope you have a wonderful birthday, mate.
(((Hugs)))

And I'm smiling at the idea of them in a hammock, and Indy cursing under his breath until they make it work...
Hugs and thanks so much. I love it!

I was going to do you a Ganya but as I sat down to type this one came out instead, so you'll have to have that for another time.
Indy is nothing if not goal orientated:)
