honolulu hello - Madison

Madison smiled hearing this and softly replied "if they did know you'd never hear the end of it. So I won't say. We're going to enjoy this fully". They were normal compared to the rest of the family at least but now Mallory was an auntie to the children. In return she was an in law to the Nottingham's and she'd see most of them eventually.

So later on after this pizza dinner it was back to the hotel for bedtime and loving. The next morning Madison was first up; she slipped on a bathrobe to start the coffee off. She felt happy and loved up ready to plan today.

This suite had a basic tiny kitchen and the coffee vessel was a French press. Enough for them as this coffee selection would be a mystery for her. She hoped it wasn’t decaf but you usually didn’t get that unless she asked for it.

“You know my love it’s hard to sleep again once you get up” Madison softly replied as after stiring the coffee again she tried to figure out what level of roast it was. Letting it sit until it was ready to plunge she added “I think this will start the day off”. The hotel supplied two cups and a kettle so they could at least do this without having to call room service.

“I’ve always done my own coffee. Once I’m up theres no more sleeping but certainly more loving” Madison replied with her smile and server the freshly brewed coffee out. This was good stuff so she wondered what ground coffee there was here. She might even bring a packet back with her.

So as they didn’t have to rush down for breakfast there was plenty of time for passion.

“You can get different blends in other parts of the world. We might be able to get some of this if I ask the kitchen staff what to look for?” Madison cheerfully replied after a lovers kiss for her wife.

“We also should do coffee with Taylor and Carter as you suggest. They deserve it and we can see how they enjoyed their honeymoon. I think the three of them will have plenty of fun” she added. It was bound to be a hot wedding night just like theirs was.

Hearing the question that was posed Madison replied “I don’t think work will be much different but it will feel different. New aims mean new ideas to explore”. Then added “we should come back in early summer. We might well need a second trip to find out more and it should feel more warmer at that point in time”.

It really should be that way and by then more might be opened up. This was certainly off season.

There was something she could tell her wife about what was going on. The other things she couldn’t. “Space simulations are being worked on. So people can kind of experience what a space trip feels like. The rumours are true” Madison replied with a happy smile. “We’d need help to eat a whole pig though” she added. She did find the new work enjoyable and interesting all the same and they would have scope to set the direction of the research.

Madison wasn't sure if Avery would be the type of person to want to go to space. She was the person with the big ideas and the clear boss woman of ARI. The had hatters dinner party was still something she thought about from time to time but since then things had seemed to be settled and back on track.

"I would see Avery as wanting to be the brains and driving force of a space operations rather than being there herself. Finding astronauts wouldn't be too hard back home. Historically they're from the armed forces of a nation or scientists but Ashford isle is a place totally unlike anywhere else" she suggested. That meant she felt confident about local recruitment for a space programme.

"Why don't we go out with Gio, TJ and Celeste once we get back?" she added. "It'll get them out and about and more used to isalnd life."
