She closed her eyes hoping the quiet would calm her racing heart. She took a deep breath and walked into the living room. The sound of the music playing surprised her. She stood still, looking around the room.
“What’s all of this?”
“Romance.” Sean walked toward her modeling his gift.
“You look very handsome.”
He took her hand and led her to the sofa. “Sit down.” She joined him on the sofa admiring the impromptu romantic touches splashed around the room. “There wasn’t much in the fridge.”
“I know, I emptied it yesterday.”
He poured her a glass of mineral water and handed it to her and then, poured one for himself. “Here’s to the next phase of our life.” They clinked glasses and sipped. He placed his arm around her and they got comfortable. “I remember someone saying they couldn’t wait until we got married so we could be like this all the time.”
She wrapped her arms around him. “I vaguely recall that.”
His hand dropped down and rested on her behind.
This was nice, but she didn’t want this to be how they spent their wedding night. Less than an hour ago, he was going on and on about her thighs and behind and making suggestive comments. Now, sitting on the sofa with very little fabric between them, he was quiet and still.
“Are you okay?” she asked.
“Yeah, I was just thinking, this isn’t how I planned our first time.”
“Me either.”
“I thought, we’d get married before we left for the airport and our first time would be at the resort.”
“Really?” She sat up and her robe opened slightly, revealing her breasts. “And what made you think I would have agreed to that?”
“I can be very persuasive when I have to be.” He smiled.
“I’ll have to remember that.” She tucked her hair behind her ear.
“Seriously though, after the other night, and seeing you in that dress tonight, just confirmed we couldn’t take that trip together without being married.”
“I think we…”
“Honey, I’m a strong man, but I will be the first to admit that since we got engaged, it’s been a bit of a challenge.”
“Is that what you meant by, what did you say, a single man’s…”
“Yeah.”
She traced his lips with her finger. “You have the most amazing lips.” She leaned forward and kissed him, letting her lips linger. She pulled back and rested her elbow on the back of the sofa. “I thought you would have been all over me, once we got home.”
“When we got home,” he pulled her robe back a little further, smiling at the sight of her breasts. He gently brushed his finger across her nipple and she smiled. “That was my first impulse, and then you kicked me out.”
“I didn’t kick you out.” She tilted her head.
“And then you gave me my present and I thought we needed to slow it down.”
She opened his robe a little and placed a kiss on his chest slowly moving her mouth up to his. She pressed her body into his and then her lips against his again. She slowly pulled back and whispered, “You don’t have to take it too slow.”
He wrapped his arms around her pulling her to his chest. They laid on the sofa a while kissing and touching and then he whispered, “I think it’s time we moved this into…”
“Our room?” She smiled and leaned back against the sofa, adjusting her robe.
He stood up and helped her onto her feet, stepping aside to let her walk in front of him. His smile covered his face as he watched her walking. She stopped and turned to face him, “Put the candles out and turn off the stereo.” He walked around the living room putting the candles out. “And check the door,” she called from the bedroom.
