Drabble: 'Behind the Couch' (Jack/Harry - PG-13)

[dwgm]

For last week's 'Shoe' prompt at blackpearlsails, here's a "deleted scene" from the third chapter of Harry & the Pirate II: Swann's Revenge ("Making Merry"). The chapter is set during Will and Elizabeth's wedding reception, and some of you may remember that Jack and Harry retreated to the library in the Swann mansion for a brief respite from the festivities, enjoying a romantic interlude...



~ Behind the Couch ~


Jack goggled a bit as he took the finely shod little foot in his hand. “What’s this? Diamond-studded heels, forsooth!”

Henrietta Fanshawe née Swann, Jack’s very own pet dowager duchess, rosy with love and anticipation as she reclined amid the throw-pillows they’d used to fashion their impromptu bed, gave a low chuckle. “Do you like them?”

“Oh, I do!” said Jack. With light fingers he stroked the surface of the heel, then the silk-clad foot… the ankle… the calf...

Harry sighed happily and lay back, lifting impatient arms to him.

He kissed the foot before setting it to one side, and there followed a considerable rustling of satin and taffeta before he murmured against her ear, “But I like what’s in them so much more.”
