I would do anything for love and I'll take a vow and seal a pact
CES was a BIG deal every year, but this year it was even a bigger deal for Anya. Stark Inc's computer division had a booth as usual, but right next to it Renaissance Tech had a booth. Anya was showing off the new operating system her company developed and hoped to get it some attention. So far it was working. People were interested and liked what they saw.

The best part about CES, outside the really cool electronic toys of course, was that it took place in Vegas. Vegas was one of her favorite places, even though she wasn't old enough to gamble. It wasn't about the gambling. It was about the lights, the shows, the people and the food. Of course the shopping was important too. Anya wasn't one to pass up a trip to Vegas.

It was a busy week for Anya and Sunny. There were lunches and dinners with industry leaders and a few celebrities that happened to be in town. Now it was Friday and the show was over and the weekend had started. A weekend in Vegas to relax was just what she needed. Along with her boyfriend. She had contacted Buck earlier in the week to see if he could make it out this weekend and was happy that he could. She had spent the week praying to whatever deity would answer that things would be quiet so Buck could make it out.

There was enough time after her last meeting of the day and the time Buck got here for a quick nap. It had been a long week. She hit the pillow and was asleep in no time.

Buck was almost certain that his SHIELD false ID was not meant to allow him to gamble illegally. But it was a very secret agent-y thing to do, so he figured they'd give him a pass. Besides, its just a few games of poker. He doesn't get to play as often as he'd like, because, well, the Rogers image requires not revealing that he's almost as good at poker as he is at pool.

A few hundred dollars richer - enough for his next round of car repairs - he heads up to the room to check on Anya, trying to enter quietly and not disturb her when there's no immediate response.

	Anya smiled. "How much did you win?" she asked and threw back the covers. She climbed out of bed and was wearing just panties and a bra. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	That gets a grin. He moves over to the bed, looking her over. "About $400." he replies, before putting his arms around her, one hand coming to rest on her pantied ass, and giving her a firm kiss. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"That'll buy quite a few car parts," Anya said after returning the kiss. "I'm glad you came. We could use a weekend away from the crazy stuff." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"The money or molesting you? Because both have been known to be good things for my bottom line, and thus my ongoing car repairs." He teases. "And some people would say that Vegas is an escape from one kind of crazy to another." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2013-01-12 01:21 am UTC (link)
	Anya laughed. "Both. Molest me and I'll buy you anything you want." She gave him a quick kiss. "Different crazy, but not someone trying to kill us crazy." "Dinner. I'm starving." She gave him a quick kiss and got up. "I need to get dressed." She paused. "Unless you want to get room service where clothing is optional." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Tempting, tempting, especially after having not seen you in a while. But there's also a place here that's supposed to have amazing steak. I don't think room service can compare. How about you buy me dinner, and we can work up our appetite for clothing optional activities that way?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Then I'll get dressed." She grabbed her jeans from where she tossed them on the floor. "It's a good thing I already made reservations at Craftsteak." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"It'll be worth me putting on more clothing," Anya assured him. "Besides, you can work off your meal when you take these clothes off of me." She wiggled a bit as she brought her jeans up over her hips. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He watches the jeans get pulled up with a theatrical sigh, then nods. "I think we can manage that." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He distracts her during this part, stepping in behind her and kissing her neck and nibbling at her ear while she works at buttons. "I don't doubt that." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2013-01-13 12:13 am UTC (link)
	Anya paused in buttoning up her blouse and turned her head to give him better access to the soft skin of her neck. "Mmmmmm. Keep this up and we will be ordering room service." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Tease," she accused and finished buttoning up her blouse. She pulled her hair back into a pony tail and then slipped on her favorite pair of boots. "I'm ready." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"If so, I'm in good company." he agrees, moving to get the door. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Touche," she said and gave him a quick kiss before leaving the room ahead of him. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He returns the kiss, then heads out after her. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

She waited for him just outside the door and she took one of his hands and held it after he fell into place next to her. His hands were always so warm and hers seemed to soak up the warmth. They were strong and calloused from work and just the way Anya liked a man's hands to be. She knew what those hands could do. The memories brought a small smile to her face.

"How was the flight out?" she asked as they headed for the elevator.

	He's always been good with his hands. In a fight, working with a car, or keeping his girlfriend happy like this. He takes her hand readily as they walk. "Not bad. Still getting used to commercial, even first class, instead of team supersonics." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"You were the one who wouldn't let me send the jet for you," she said as she hit the button to call the elevator. "It would have been half the time. Or did you have some clandestine meeting with a hot flight attendant?"

Anya was teasing, but it did disturb her on a level. They hadn't agreed to be exclusive and she didn't ask if he was seeing anyone else, but it wasn't sitting well with her. She hadn't seen anyone except him, but with her busy schedule it was hard to see him let alone anyone else.

He'd brought up being more exclusive once before - and she wanted to wait. Granted, it was a lot earlier in their relationship, but he hadn't given it much thought since, either, leaving it to the Stark to decide.

"No flight attendant could ever measure up to seeing you that sooner. I'm just not that accustomed to excess, and didn't think a supersonic jet for a little more vacation time was necessary."
