True Love

Mary walked into the room and sat on the sofa next to Matthew. She sat so that her back was to Matthew, with his arm around her and her legs folded up in front of her. She sunk into his warmth. She didn't really plan on watching anything in particular, but she took the remote and flicked through the channels until she found something that she liked. She'd come in at an awkward time as far as TV schedules go. Once she'd decided on a channel it was only five minutes until the end of the episode. As soon as the adverts came on Matthew picked the remote up, teasing Mary. Both of them knew that the next episode of the same programme (they were repeats) was on next, so there was no need to change channel, but Matthew taunted her, flicking forward a couple of channels and then going back to Mary's choice; changing to BBC and then back to the original programme. Mary snatched the remote off him playfully, stopping him from being irritating any further. But Matthew just teased her more. He got up and stood near the TV, leaving Mary to sink back into the sofa. He was standing an arm's length away from the TV box. Mary knew he could change channel from there, so she bounced off the sofa and ran to stand between him and the buttons that would do the deed. Matthew took her waist and kissed her. She still had the remote control in her hand, but her grip loosened once Matthew's lips connected with hers. He took the remote spitefully and mock laughed at Mary for being a fool to let it go. Mary tried to grab for the remote, but Matthew held it high above his head. Although Mary wasn't that much shorter than Matthew, his arms were slightly longer, so Mary stood on her tiptoes to try and take it out of Matthew's hands, but she still couldn't reach, so she jumped. It was no longer about the channels anymore; it was about the game and the victory. Mary knew that she was losing, but she didn't want to let Matthew win, so she walked around him so that she was at his back and then jumped on his back, as if he were giving her a piggy back ride. She squealed as Matthew spun round and held the remote in front of him, just out of her reach. Matthew twirled Mary a bit too much and they both fell to the floor with a crash. Mary giggled, but kept her eye on the remote until she was on top of him. She looked him in the eye and realised how much she loved her wonderful husband. She smiled at him and kissed him again. They rolled on the floor for a while, keeping their mouths locked together and their tongues wrapped around one another. They'd completely forgotten about the TV and neither of them knew where the remote had gone. The kiss was beginning to get even more passionate, if that was even possible. Mary pulled away and stood up, helping Matthew to his feet on the way. She stood close to his chest and whispered, "Upstairs. Now." Matthew followed the instructions of his wife without argument and followed her upstairs. This is what he loved most about Mary. She was fun and loving. She was perfect for him and he was perfect for her. They were the perfect couple. They loved each other more than anything in the world and weren't afraid to admit it. This was true love and this was the right way to do it.


Normal stuff. Any comments and reviews are much appreciated. And I thought I'd let you know that while Mary and Matthew love each other, I love all you readers of my fics even more than that!
