Forever Yours

By Ladydoma

Disclaimer: Okay we've been over this and over this, I own no one! After several years at long last I've begun the sequel to Brown Eyes. But the love story concerns William Bush( AH HOT Paul Mcgann) And Penelope who is unsure if she still loves Horatio or her beloved William Bush. And she has another little surprise to worry about.

This is dedicated to Dusty Lafave. Who has become a fan of Horatio Hornblower and watched all the movies for me.

Chapter One: Unsure Feelings.

The marriage receptive went off without a hitch. Penelope took a moment to get a breath of fresh air. Standing there, taking a breath of fresh air himself was Horatio. She smiled, then brushed back what little hair she had left. She watched as he just sat there, staring off at the evening sky.

As she stared she loved him. Always loved him. After these long years, she never forgot about what they once meant to one another. And Mariah took him. She merely shook her head and approached him and took a seat beside him." I'm happy for you." She started.

Horatio smiled and looked at Penelope." And I for you and William. An odd match, but..."

Penelope chuckled and touched his lips with her index fingure. And inched herself closer to him. Horatio stared down at her and still found her beautiful beyond compare. even to Mariah. Who had guilt tripped him into marrying her. He had questioned himself several time, wither or not he loved her.

But he had not ever once questioned his feelings for Penelope. True when they had made love they went a little fast, but he knew what he had felt. Love at first sight. Now he had to ask himself, if he still felt that way for her.And somehow she's come back to him. Through fate.

" I can't wait to serve under you." She whispered and leaned up, to kiss him. Horatio nearly touched lips to her's but he quickly drew himself to the fact he was now married. Weither he wanted it anymore or not.

He drew back slightly." I'm a married man. Penelope." He whispered.

Penelope nodded," I'm sorry I tried such things. I...I don't know what came over me."

" It is no trouble Penelope. But we must remember. Both of us are either married or soon to be." Horatio explained.

Penelope hung her head and nodded. Horatio stood and took his leave as soon as Bush came to see his soon to be bride." I should have liked to see you with your long hair." He began sitting down beside her.

Penelope smiled and stared upon the setting sun." Does that matter to you, weither or not I have long hair?"

William shook his head," Not at all. No matter long "long, short...I will always see that face of an angel. I looked upon for the first time." He whispered and stroked her face.

Penelope closed her eyes and leaned closer into his caress. She found their lips pressed against eachother's. William wrapped his arms around her and pressed himself into her. His fingers caressing around her face, then wrapped around to the back of her neck. Making so their kiss would not cease.

Even though, they were only to be wed. William and Penelope did not to hide their lust from anyone. Especially eachother. Penelope and William eased gently from the kiss and stared longingly into eachother's eyes.

William smiled at her and caressed the small of her back slowly, and as he leaned down to brush his lips against her ear, he muttered," I want to make love to you."

Penelope smiled upon hearing this." William." She uttered his name as his lips touched the soft skin of her neck

" Is that a yes?" He asked staring into her eyes once more.

" Yes. A thousand times, yes." She answered.

" Of course though...I only told you because...I truely love you."

" Is that so. You know my father warned me of men like you. " Penelope said with a wide smile.

William chuckled." Like me?" He started to ask as he stood, offering his hand to Penelope. She accepted and stood with him. As he wrapped his hand around her hips and rested his hand slightly above her buttocks. He continued." Well, what was it he said of men like me?"

"Well...he warned me against male seduction. The words used to lure beautiful women to their beds." She explained.Wrapping her arms around William's shoulders leaning up to kiss him again.William smiled down at her after their kiss ended.

" Do you know what men like me tend to do then? If I wanted you so badly in my bed, just to throw you aside. I would not do this." He began, leaned down and swept her in his arms. And carried her all the way to the Hot Spur. Though it is not as romantic as William would have liked for the first time of making love to the woman he was madly in love with. But it worked.

Authoress note: Good so far. Please let me know. I am unsure if this one will be as succeessful as Brown Eyes.
