She blushed as she slipped the T-shirt on. It fell to the middle of her thighs and it was probably sexier than the damn corset she just took off. I slipped my boxer briefs on and she put her hand on her hips as she tilted her head and said, “Hey. How come you get to wear underwear and I can’t?”

I shrugged and took her hand in mine as we made our way down to the kitchen. I sat down at the bar as Azurdee began looking around. She let out a giggle and said, “French toast?”

I did a fist pump and said, “Yes! Perfect first meal as husband and wife.”

She nodded and said, “I agree.”

I watched as my beautiful wife began whipping out French toast almost the exact same way as the first day I met her. I watched her every move and thanked God for the blessings in my life at least five times as I watched her cook.

She set two plates down in front of us and we both ate in silence. Azurdee only ate half of her French toast while I finished off mine and the rest of hers. I loved her cooking so damn much.

I threw my napkin down on the plate and smiled as I said, “Done! Woman, get me a beer now!”

Azurdee laughed as she rolled her eyes.

“What were you thinking about? While we were eating, I mean?” she asked as she ran her fingers along the edge of the T-shirt.

I shrugged and said, “Us. How much I love you. How much I love your cooking.” I said as I wiggled my eyebrows up and down. “How much I want to make love to you on this kitchen island.”

She placed her finger in her mouth and her eyes turned almost black with desire. I gave her a look and said, “Why, Mrs. Williams, would you like for me to take you on the island?”

She nodded her head and said, “Very much so.” I took the two plates and put them in the sink and then turned around and picked her up and set her down on the island.

“Move back baby, and spread your legs open.”

“Oh God, Lark.”

We ended up making love on the island and then in the living room where I took her from behind as she leaned over the leather sofa. Then on the stairs and finally in the shower where we both collapsed to the floor and just sat there with the hot water running on us.

“I think you have officially worn me out,” I said as I pulled her closer to me.

“I’m so tired I just want to sleep in the shower,” she said with a yawn.

I got up and turned off the shower. I reached down and pulled her up. We stepped out of the giant shower and I wrapped a towel around me as I dried her off. I picked her up and carried her into the bedroom. I pulled the sheets back and gently laid her down on the bed and covered her up. I sat down on the bed and ran my hand down along her face.

“If I haven’t told you, you looked beautiful today.”

She smiled and said, “Mmm…you have. Like a million times.”

“I wish I could rewind this whole day and relive it again.”

She opened her eyes and said, “Me too.”

I leaned down and kissed her gently on the lips and said, “I haven’t given you my wedding present yet. We have to be home for you to see it.”

She barely smiled. “Mmm. Okay.”

I smiled to myself knowing how happy she would be. Ralph had told me Azurdee had been looking shortly after the fire into buying a coffee shop that was for sale in Marble Falls I bought it and was planning on surprising her when we got back home. I couldn’t wait to see her face when I pulled up and she saw the new sign.

“Go to sleep, baby. Rest up. We have ten more days of this.”

“Mmm…can we just stay in the bedroom the whole time?” she said as she closed her eyes again.

I let out a chuckle and said, “If that’s what you want, baby, that’s what we’ll do.”

She shook her head slightly and said, “No. I’d like to see the beach at least once.”

I ran my hand through her hair and whispered, “Thank you.”

She snapped her eyes open and looked at me. She sat up and asked, “For what?”

I swallowed hard and said, “For always loving me. For making me feel like I deserved your love. For accepting me for who I was and never judging me.”

“Lark…I will love you forever. Our love is and will always be a lasting love.”

I kissed her gently on the lips and began pushing her back down until she was lying down again.

I stood up and stripped my towel off and crawled into the bed and next to my wife. I’d never felt so much love from one person in my life.

“Azurdee…I love you so much.”

I slowly pulled her up against my body and wrapped my arms around her.

“I love you too, Michael.”

I listened as her breathing got deeper and slower. When I closed my eyes and began drifting off to sleep I dreamed of a brunette with shoulder-length hair walking along the beach with her hands resting on her swollen belly. I walked up to her and when she turned around she smiled the biggest smile I’d ever seen. My knees about buckled and my stomach did that weird little flip it does when she smiles at me like that.

She looked down and then back up into my eyes and said, “We’ve been waiting for you.”

I smiled and placed my hands on Azurdee’s stomach. “You don’t have to wait anymore, mi amor. I’m here.”

One Year Later

I walked along the beach and tried my best to listen to Joyce go on and on about how excited everyone was.

I would say the occasional “Oh I know.” Or “I’m so excited, too.” Every now and then I’d have to throw in an “Aww…that is so sweet,” when she would talk about something someone in the family was making for the baby.

I placed my hand on my stomach and felt my little angel. She was super active today and I was pretty sure it was because daddy woke mommy up this morning with a good hard fu…

“Azurdee? Darling, are you listening to me?”

I stopped and looked at Joyce and said, “I’m sorry. I was lost in thought. I was thinking about this morning.”

“What about this morning?” she asked.

Nice Azurdee. What are you going to tell her now? Oh you know Joyce, I was thinking how your son had me on my hands and knees and fucked the hell out of my almost nine-month pregnant self.

“There is my favorite girl,” Lark said from behind me. I turned and smiled as I saw Lark walking toward me. He stopped dead in his tracks and looked at me with the strangest look. I tilted my head and asked, “Are you okay?”

He walked up to me and ran his hands through my hair. I had Joyce cut it for me this morning in preparation for the baby. It fell just below my shoulders now.

“Your hair,” he whispered. He placed his hand on my stomach and looked into my eyes.

“Do you not like it shorter? I just had to get it cut—your mom did it for me earlier.”

The corner of his mouth lifted in that oh so sexy way of his as a smile spread across his face.

He shook his head and said, “I love it. It just…it reminds me of a dream I had about you…twice.”

I made a goofy face and said, “Oh. You dreamed I cut my hair?”

He smiled and nodded his head.

He put both hands on my stomach and dropped to his knees in the sand. “¿Cómo está mi niña?”

I ran my hands through his hair as he talked to our daughter. I loved his hair a bit longer. He had grown it out a bit after he got out of the Corps. It wasn’t too long, but it was long enough to where I could run my fingers through it and grab it as we made love.

Lark stood up and placed his hand behind my neck and pulled my lips to his. I was still shocked at how passionately he would kiss me in front of people, especially his parents.

“How do you feel?” he asked against my lips.

I nodded and said, “Good. She’s kicking a lot today. She’s been very active since this morning.” If I hadn’t known any better I would say my husband just blushed.

Joyce clapped her hands and said, “Okay, your father and I are leaving in a bit, so you two are

going to be okay, right?”

Lark rolled his eyes and said, “Yes, Mom. We’re heading back today too. With Azurdee getting so close to her due date we are going to hunker down.”

Joyce grinned from ear to ear and I could see the excitement in her eyes. “Your father and I will plan on coming up after the baby is born. I want y’all to settle in first before we come bursting in and intruding.”

Lark nodded his head and said, “If only the other grandparents thought that way.”

I hit him in the stomach and said, “Stop it.”

We all headed back to the beach house, where we said our good-byes to Joyce and Peter and began loading up the new Toyota Sequoia we had bought.

“How many kids are we planning on having again? “ I said as Lark helped me into the passenger seat. He shrugged and said, “I would think no more than two.”
