Drabble - for Maddie

This is pretty much exclusively for sunshine_queen, since we were talking about June is the month for Six Appreciation. Keep in mind, I have NEVER written for a Six, and I'm doing my best with her headspace.
So here you go, babe. Lee x Natalie. (OOC ALL OVER THE PLACE BUT I LOVE IT)



"Remind me why I got into politics in the first place?" Lee let himself drop into the couch in his quarters, loosening his tie after a long day with the press.

"Because you're a masochist?" He snorted at that, looking at the woman sitting beside him. She had papers in her hands, similar to the ones that he'd been pouring over the last few days. She had stopped laughing at them when they were handed to her, and archaic form of communication that was so very human. Now, she dropped the papers onto an uneven pile on the coffee table, next to a few of his own.

"I don't think it was that," Lee replied. He pretended to pause to think. "At least, I'm mostly sure it's not that."

"Hmmm," she pretended to think as she moved closer to him, her hands slipping off his tie.

"Then it must have been all those speeches you get to make," she went on. "So many people listening to your every word."

"Decidedly not," he said sharply, wrinkling his nose as he helped her push off his jacket. She tossed it carelessly aside. She straddled his lap, moving to slowly undo the buttons of his shirt.

"Then it must have been all the strategy meetings to save the world," she said, her fingers running against the skin of his chest that was now exposed.

"No, I leave the saving of the world up to you," Lee said matter-of-factly, his hands running up and down her sides, relaxing from the day's burdens. It had only been five years, but it still felt like they'd been doing this for a lifetime. His fingers slipped beneath her dark shirt, sliding over the soft skin on her back and making her smile wider as she lowered her face to kiss just below his ear.

"I'm better at it," she quipped, biting his ear lobe.

"I think that people just like to see you more," he said, adjusting her on his lap, letting his hands wander. "The prettier of the joint government representatives. Give better speeches too."

She hummed,running her fingers through his hair as he kissed her collarbone. She wriggled a little more above him and he felt his self control snap.

"I think I remember why I bother with politics," he said, still panting from the exertion. He pushed back a lock of her light brown hair, her sated smile reaching her eyes as she looked at him, resting on top of him.

"Yeah?"

"It's the women," he said seriously and felt her laugh in his chest.
