FINDING HOME by l_P_o_R_v_2_e_4: It all started with a simple act of kindness. Sam and Dean Winchester wanted to do something nice for their parents. That was why John & Mary were on an all-expenses-paid cruise while the cast and crew of Changing Homes was at their house. Sam & Dean had just planned to be on the show with their neighbors, Bobby & Ellen, and get a new living room for their mom out of the deal. Simple. Easy. Straightforward. And then the Novak brothers walked in and turned everything upside down. (A Sabriel/Destiel Fluffy/NSFW Smutty Romance)

“Yeah. O-our bed.” She sighed and hugged Tia, falling into the comfort she represented, the love she had become. 

Rumor has it...you’ll be in my bed tonight? *Milli blushes adorably*

“Our bed.”

In addition to apples (always Milli’s favorite) and pears for the girls, Milli included mangoes in the shopping. It was important to make sure everyone in the house had something they liked.

☺ - Do they prefer sour or sweet treats? (For absolutely no reason at all *whistles innocently*)

“I like fruits of all kinds. I especially like mangos, so sweet.”

Do you have a date for Lover's Day?

Milli blushed and glanced down, then toward the front where Tia’s voice could be heard, helping a customer. “Yeah. I think I do.” Then she laughed. “And it’s probably a good thing, because the two girls who are usually my Lover’s Day dates seem to be more interested in their new friend to remember me.” She raised a hand, waving at Tali and Zahra, playing tag with Naeem in the courtyard in the back.

Milli was sketching something in bed when Tia got there. She eyed the box balefully at first, but opened it when Tia encouraged her. Gently she lifted the heart out, turning it over and over in her hands. 

“Syrean made this,” she smiled, recognizing the small maker’s mark on the edge.With a few little motions, she had figured it out, her mind always moving a mile a minute. She gasped in surprise and then threw her arms around Tia. “So I can talk to you when you’re gone,” Milli whispered, tears stinging her eyes.

She kissed Tia and then looked down at the little heart in her hand. “It’s perfect. You’re perfect.” Then she looked back up at Tia. “I love you.”

The drawing for Naeem’s room was cast aside as she pulled Tia into their bed, kissing her silly and making sure that she knew it would always be there for her to come home to.

Syrean had helped with the construction of it in secret, a simple trinket with a minor alteration. The glow inside was the true present, the heart simply concealing the communication device hidden away within. Tia had one just like it, and Syrean had spent hours teaching her how to use it with minor success. Time had run out, though, and the gift was due. 

Tia nervously waited until after they had tucked the children in, each one getting a kiss from Tia and a story from Milli and Naeem who was insistent on helping to re-tuck the girls in after. She then waited for Milli to settle into bed while she finished cleaning up the dishes, it had become her new chore since it was best she never be asked to cook. Then, when all the chores were done and the children put down, she found her way up the stairs to her best friend, her lover, and she retrieved a wooden box that looked similar to the one she used every morning with Milli’s irritated assistance. The box was offered to Milli with an excited smile. Tia wasn’t big on gifts, it wasn’t how she communicated her love. She was big on safety, security, and that was in essence what she was offering Milli now. A way to ensure she was safe.

Milli squeezed her hands and smiled. “That sounds easy. You have always been a good friend. And now...more. I’ll keep being who I’ve always been. You keep being the courageous, strong, remarkable woman you’ve always been.” She laughed. “It doesn’t hurt that you’re beautiful and have a sweet kid that my daughters love. I think that’s the real bonus.” She winked at Tia playfully and pulled her hand up to kiss it.

“So we just pick up where we left off. Friends, with added benefits. More than that really. I don’t know how to open up my heart, it takes persistence and a strong fucking crowbar, but you managed. So just… Keep being the sweet, honest, loving woman I’ve always known and we’re going to be okay.”

She was up before the sun, gently waking the children and leading them downstairs so that they wouldn’t wake Tia. There was breakfast, then everyone went into the courtyard created by the rear walls of the buildings around them. 

Milli had set up a saw horse and was busy sanding the the timbers for the bunk bed she would build upstairs to accommodate the addition of Naeem into their family. Tia’s sleeping arrangements...needed no accommodations. 

As the sun rose and began to chase away the shade, the heat of the day slowly started to show itself. By the time Tia came downstairs, Milli was wearing only a sleeveless shirt and pants as she scraped away the burrs of the wood. 

It was a different sort of openness, letting her scars be seen by those around her. Her skin glowed golden even beneath the horrific burns caused by fire and acid. She had suffered, but come out the other side. And it seemed she had finally started to accept that. 

Milli followed Tia back inside to have coffee and then undertake the task that Milli found so unsettling. The project could wait. After all, they finally had time.
