She smiles. “The party is a few months away.”
“So, Hawai’i?”
She nods. “Hawai’i!”
I laugh at her excitement and we go back to eating and having our typical conversation. The food is good, and the wine is even better. When we finish eating, we pour fresh glasses of wine and move to the sofa in front of the fireplace on the patio. I wrap my arms around her and pull her to my side as we watch the flames dance before us.
“Mmmm, this is perfect. I missed being home.”
“Me too,” I agree. “Want to get in the hot tub?”
“Yes, I’m so sore from all the sitting from traveling.”
I stand up and start to undress. She looks at me with a smirk and a lifted brow.
“No suits, huh?”
“What do you mean? We’ll wear our birthday suits.”
She laughs and rolls her eyes at my stupid joke but stands up and starts to undress.
I step into the hot tub and I take the corner I’ve already picked out. She picks up our wine and carries the glasses over completely naked. I love the way her hips sway and her full breasts bounce as she walks. She sets the glasses down and dips beneath the water. She’s sitting across from me with her arms stretched along the sides of the hot tub. She leans her head back and closes her eyes.
The candles light up her face, and I can’t help but be dazzled by her beauty. Her long, dark lashes are fanned out across her cheeks and her plump lips are slightly parted. The light of the fire is dancing off her face, lighting up her cheekbones, the tip of her nose, and her chin while her eyes are sunken in darkness.
“Destiny?”
“Hmm?” she asks, opening her eyes.
“I love you.”
She smiles. “I love you, too.”
“When I bought this cabin, I told you that I wanted to marry you. That I wanted to be the father of your children. I wanted to spend my whole life with you.”
She nods. “I remember.”
“Well, I think it’s time we get started on the rest of our lives.” I turn and pick up the small velvet box that I placed by the hot tub. I open it and show her the ring. The fire causes the diamond to light up and sparkle beautifully.
She sets up and her eyes are wide.
“Will you marry me?”
Her mouth drops open and tears fill her eyes. “Now?”
I nod. “I want you to be mine in every way possible as soon as possible.”
She smiles even though tears are streaking down her cheeks. “Yes, of course I’ll marry you,” she breathes out.
I remove the ring from the box and slide it onto her finger. Tossing the box over my shoulder with one hand, I pull her into my lap with the other. Our lips meet and she wraps her arms around my neck, pulling herself closer to deepen the kiss. My hands tour her body, roaming over her hips, back, and ass. Just kissing her, touching her, it’s enough to have me rock hard and pressing against her. Her hips move, gridding her clit against me and she lets out a quiet moan into my mouth.
I pick her up against me and carry her to the downstairs bedroom, in too big of a hurry to walk all the way upstairs. We fall onto the bed, soaking wet and tangled up in one another. Positioning myself at her entrance, I roll my hips and slide into her like she’s home.
Sheismy home, and always will be.
