Chapter 1

Scarlett wasn't fully awake she was in that wonderful world of half awake and half asleep. She could still remember her dream from the night before. Blushing she opened her eyes. The second she did, reality came crashing down around her. What she thought had been an extraordinary dream had happened. The proof was sleeping next to her. Rhett Butler her husband the man she had banded from her room was sound asleep next to her. Looking around her Scarlett, noticed she wasn't in her own room.

Having never been in Rhett's room at night or as it was earlier morning Scarlett found it dark and lonely. How Rhett stayed in this room at night she would never know. Only he didn't did he? Most of the time he was off at Belle's doing.. Well Scarlett didn't like thinking about what he was doing those nights. Scarlett's first thoughts were to make a ran for it forget this whole thing happened. Only that would be the coward's way out and one thing Scarlett wasn't a coward.

Knowing Rhett like she did he would try to make a break for it as soon as he opened his eyes. That was something she wouldn't allow. If they were ever going to have a normal life or normal for them they needed to talk about last night.

What if Rhett regretted what they had done last night? In the early morning light that just now started to shine Scarlett could find no regret for the way she spend the night before. In fact she had enjoyed it something she would never admit to another soul not in a million years.

As she yawned Scarlett found she was still exhausted from all that exercise that night before giggling at her own joke Scarlett tensed up as she felt Rhett move beside her. While she knew they had to talk Scarlett wasn't ready for that heart to heart yet. Rhett was replaying last night's events in his mind. He knew the warm body next to him belonged to his wife. Most of the night before was lost in his drunkenness. Memories of how soft and willingly Scarlett had been filled his already trouble mind. After what he had done Rhett was sure that was all he would ever have of Scarlett memories. Why had he gotten so drunk, he knew nothing had happened between Mr. Wilkes and his Wife? His head was pounding and he felt like his mouth was full of cotton. Yet,
he knew why brandy had become his friend last night. Thoughts that if it wasn't for the fact Ashley Wilkes was a gentleman he couldn't trust his Wife.

Something Rhett found he wanted to be able to do. He wanted to trust Scarlett with her body and more importantly his heart. Knowing that was never going to happen he found no joy in the thought of teasing Scarlett about her behavior the last night.

Thinking Scarlett to still be asleep Rhett moved his arm. Brandy and drinks much stronger called to Mr. Butler. Perhaps Belle could help get his mind of Scarlett. Scarlett closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep as she felt Rhett moving next to her. She knew what she wanted to do and that was give Rhett a piece of her mind about leaving her at that party last night to face the angry 'old cats' alone.

Rhett who was thankful it seemed Scarlett still slept in late. Was just about to leave the warm bed in search of clothes when he felt one of Scarlett small hands touch his back followed by her voice sweetly asking? "Mr. Butler where do you think your going?"

The first respond that popped into Rhett's head and he had to fight not to utter was 'As far away from you as possible.' But if he said those words Scarlett would know she held power over him. Scarlett O'Hara wasn't one to let power of any kind slip through her fingers. Rhett was silent as he tried to think of something to anger Scarlett if he could only get her mad her temper would give him the escape he longed for. "After the events of last night I find I'm in much need of a drink. Would You like one my pet?" Rhett asked amazed at how cold his voice sounded. Scarlett who could only see Rhett's back saw how he had tensed up at her voice. He was trying to bail her. Only this time she wasn't going to fall for it. They needed to talk and talk they would. "Rhett we need to talk" Scarlett said forgetting his earlier question all together. Rhett knew if Scarlett got something into her mind there wasn't a person alive who could get it out of her mind until she had her answer.

"If it was about last night I was very drunk. I'm sorry if I hurt you"
Rhett said as he turned to take in the sight of Scarlett knowing her emerald eyes would hold a deep hatred for him. Instead what he saw in bed next to him took his very breath away.

Scarlett's hair was laying across her pillow and she had on her face a look of contentment. And her eyes were indeed on fire but not with hatred. She had his sheet tightly held in her hands covering her beautiful body. Never in all the years Rhett had known her did he think Scarlett had ever looked more beautiful. At that second a fire within him one he had thought he could control burned bright and strong. Without fear of being turned away Rhett leaned in and claim Scarlett's lips. As Rhett's tongue dueled with her's Scarlett's thoughts turned to the night before. Memories of the passion they shared fill her mind and body until she longed for those very unlady like feelings to be full filled.

Wrapping her arms around Rhett's neck pulling him closer Scarlett let herself go. All thoughts of talking left her mind. What she wanted was a repeat of last night's event. Only this time she wanted it from a sober Rhett. One who couldn't later delude her into believing it was only the brandy that made him act the way he did. Rhett found his mind had stopped the second Scarlett's arms went around his neck. He was acting on feelings alone now. Scarlett was driving him mad with the cute sounds she was making as he kissed from her ear to neck. Not wanting to think Rhett just kept kissing her lower and lower. Letting his tongue do all his thinking for him.

Scarlett found herself thinking how handsome and wonderful Rhett was as he kissed his way down her body. She blushed as thoughts of how talented his tongue was entered her mind.

The last thought Scarlett had before Rhett's lips claimed hers again was that last night wasn't even this good.
