one piece, I promise! Mary put the kids to sleep and walked
into her own room. "Finally!" She sighed and fell into the
arms of the man she had loved for so many years. Bert
caught her and kissed her with a fierce passion. It had been two
years since he had seen her. He didn't mind waiting for her, he
loved her more than anything. He knew she felt the same way. It was
the curse of her magic that kept them from being married. Bert wanted
to give her the world, and he could too. He was, after all, a very
rich man. He spent his days doing odd jobs to keep him-self busy and
having fun. "Your filthy" Mary said as they broke the
kiss. "So are you my love" Bert said kissing her
soot-covered nose. God he loved that nose, the way it perked up when
she was happy, the way it fell when she was sad. He could tell just
what she was feeling by just looking at her nose. Mary
laughed, "You know what a week from tomorrow is don't you?" She
asked as she slipped his jacket off of his shoulders. "If I
remember correctly it will be your twenty-eighth birthday." He said
as he wrapped his arms around her waist and kissed her neck. "Will
you be here so we can celebrate or will I have to be all alone
again?" "Bert, my twenty-eighth birthday is when the
spell is broken. I will be free to do as I wish as soon as Big Ben
chimes midnight." She said as a small tear rolled down her cheek.
Bert stopped and looked into her crystal blue eyes. The day
had finally come when the woman he loved would be free to do as she
wished. Free to marry, free to love and free to have children of her
own. "Oh Mary," Bert crushed her to his body. The day they
had waited for was about to come true. "We have to make plans, the
wedding, the honeymoon, where we are going to live. Oh god my love! I
don't think I have ever been this happy in all of my life!" Bert
had taken to his proper voice instead of his usual cockney. She loved
his voice, but he certainly made her laugh when the cockney was
around. Mary pulled from his embrace and tears were streaming
down her face. All the love that she felt all these years she could
finally express to him. The feeling of joy that gripped her was
exhilarating. She wanted nothing more than to make love to the man
standing before her. Slowly and a bit unsure of herself she undid the
buttons of his shirt, gently placing kisses along his chest. Once the
shirt was on the floor she reached for his belt. Suddenly he grabbed
her hands and made her look into his eyes. "Are you sure?"
he asked. He never waned to force her into anything. The late night
talks and make-out sessions had been perfectly fine with him. He
could wait. "I have never been more sure of anything in my
life" she said with deep emotion 'I love you Bert" That's
all Bert needed to hear. Quickly Mary was lifted into the air and
placed on the bed. Bert's mouth descended on hers and their tongues
intertwined. His hands made fast work of the blouse she had on.
Unexpectedly she felt the cold air on her skin, she shivered a bit
and Bert paused. The perfectly made bed hastily began to unmake it's
self. Bert suddenly realized that they were floating. Just a few
inches off of the bed, but enough for the covers to come down and
back around the couple as they were gently placed back onto the
sheets by some invisible force. Bert smiled and Mary winked at
him. "I'm going to miss that magic of yours." he said as
he started kissing her again. "Bert, just because the curse
will be broken doesn't mean I will loose my magic." She said
seductively Bert smiled the biggest smile he had in years;
life with Mary was going to be just as magical as she was. Suddenly
the bed sheets came up over their heads and the bed was abruptly
empty. Jane slowly opened her eyes and listened carefully.
She could have sworn she heard Bert in the next room, but it didn't
sound like Bert he was talking normally, not with that thick accent
that he had. And Mary Poppins was laughing! Jane listened
intently hoping to hear what she had heard before, but there was only
the soft snoring of her brother in the bed next to hers. 'I must
have been dreaming' she thought and slowly drifted back to sleep.
