Summary: Written for the Carly Needs More Love challenge on Livejournal. "She comes around one year and five days after he'd told himself to give up" Carly/Freddie





	The Morning on Your Skin

She comes around one year and five days after he'd told himself to give up, her fingers warm wrapped around his wrists. She says _please_ and _I'm sorry_ and _I should've_. And Freddie tells her to shut up, thank you, and laughs. He tells her it doesn't matter.

Carly's here with him now, her hair soft under his hand when he cups her cheek and tilts her head just enough so when their lips meet it's perfect, angled and sweet and her mouth tastes like strawberries and maple syrup. At thirteen her body was small, fragile and still changing - but now, oh, Freddie touches the small of her back, and when she arches against him she's all womanly curves.

However different she is now, after all these years, she's still _Carly_. Still pulls back, dragging her lip between her teeth, and says, "We could've -."

"Stop, okay?" Freddie says, kissing her lips and chin and her closed eyes. "It's nothing. I would've waited forever."

Carly smiles against Freddie's cheek and kisses him back in all the places he'd kissed her. "I'm shaking," he says as she nervously tugs her pajama top over her head.

"No," Carly says, Freddie touching her ribs and the slight curve of her belly. "It's me."

She leans back over him, her hands in his hair, her chest pressed against his, and Freddie says, "Yeah."

He says, "It's always been you."
