"That sounds good. All right, let's go."
Luke and Marcus were fun to spend time with, but I'm definitely in a mood to put in some quality time with my man. When we get back to Tristan's cabin, I feel excitement coming over me once again. I could definitely do this forever with him.
When we go inside the cabin, I see the dining table has already been set.
"Wow, everything looks so fancy. Is there a special occasion I'm missing?"
"I just wanted to treat my queen. Take a seat while I serve the food. It's been cooking all morning."
Wow, he's really going all out if he's been cooking.
"I'm officially impressed."
I wait impatiently on my seat as he brings out some wine for us to drink and then two plates of pot roast.
"This looks and smells delicious."
He sits across from me and smiles.
"It's Mrs. White's recipe. She helped me put it all together."
"Do I have some competition?"
"Unfortunately, she's taken, and I don't think I can take Mr. White."
"I'm so relieved."
We start to eat and I wasn't expecting the explosion of flavor once I take a bite of the meat. It's tender and juicy and has all the flavors you relate to comfort and home. After I've eaten two plates full of pot roast, I can't eat another thing.
"You don't look like you can have dessert."
"I'm about to give birth to a pot roast baby. I think I need to spend some calories with some activity to be ready to eat the dessert."
"Does that mean you want to play?"
"Maybe. What do you have to offer?"
"I thought we could play some video games and then I'll give you a massage."
My ears perk up at the offer of a massage. I will need to digest some of the food in order to not feel bloated.
"I'm in!"
We sit down to play It Takes Two and spend almost two hours of our lives playing. Tristan was the one who introduced me to gaming. I prefer the cozy farm games, but he wanted us to play together. I nudge his foot with mine and wink at him.
"Someone is ready for that massage."
I lift my hand up like an eager student in a classroom who has the answer for the teacher. He chuckles and grabs my hand and kisses the back of it gently. I put down the game controller on the table and let him guide me to the bedroom.
Tristan's bedroom is oddly comforting. It's a manly space, but he somehow made it extra welcoming for me. I really enjoy spending time with him here. I see he's already prepared for this in advance, putting a sheet over the bed and having all the oils he uses on the night table.
He's done this for me before, and he's really talented at it. It makes me get in the mood really fast, and by the end I'm usually ordering him to take me. I don't expect this time to be any different. He turns me around and starts taking my clothes off.
Sometimes I'm overwhelmed by how caring he is and how he takes care of the little details for us. I let him undress me and he takes his time, placing a kiss here and there as he removes an item of clothing. When I'm in my underwear, I hold his hand and stop him from what he's doing.
"You have this knack for making me feel special. How can I pay that back?"
"We're not keeping score, my queen."
