"That's what I'm here for," he agrees, proudly. A pause follows, largely for effect, and then he adds, "Well, that and my roguish good looks." That's totally why Elena married him.
"You do cut a very impressive figure." She smirks up at him as she leans in closer. "I can think of a few other good uses for you too." Given that it's their honeymoon and all.
"Oh, yeah?" he asks, as if he doesn't know exactly what she has in mind. The fact that he leans to meet her, mouth hovering near hers, now, doesn't help his case, either. "Like what?"
She grins as she tugs him that last bit closer, leaning in to kiss him like he's just gotten back off a plane from one of his crazy trips. Part of her can't believe that they're actually here, married, and that she's pinned him down for good - part of her knows that knowing Nate, somewhere along the way another shoe is going to drop.
But for now he's here, and she can't help but have faith that even if that shoe drops, they'll find their way together again.
There will come a time, that just who Nathan is, but at the same time and despite that, he'll keep coming home to her for as long as she lets him. He needs the adventure in his life, but he needs her, too, now. She's as much a draw as any old temple; she's as much a part of his heart as Sully.
He kisses her back almost desperately, that in mind, and when he pulls away (though he doesn't stray far), he's smiling, softly. "You, uh -- you wanna take this inside?"

"Yeah. Sounds good to me."
And with that, they will enjoy their night as married people do.
