Chapter 10
JPOV
While Isabella got changed in the bathroom, I grabbed a pair of pajama pants and quickly pulled them on. I wanted to see her when she came into the room. She looked sexy in another killer nightie; I couldn't wait for her to climb into bed. I was getting worried when she just stood staring at me, surprising me when she finally said, "You are the most beautiful man I've ever seen."
Heat grew in my chest, I might have grinned, realizing she'd been staring at my chest. I want her to want me, she doesn't say a lot about the way I look, and I guess I don't think about it much, but I really like knowing she finds me sexy.
"I love to look at you…in the jeans you wear to work. They just look…"she shuddered, her eyes running up my body, "you just look…huuh." She made me feel powerful, that I had that much influence over her reactions.I pulled her too me, nipping at her lips. Man, I love this woman. Her hands drove me crazy as she touched my chest, her fingers roaming over the muscles in my back, my muscles clenching in anticipation.
I leaned down to kiss her jaw, "I love the way you look in your nightie. I'm really enjoying the slow pace we're moving at, but I have to admit, I love seeing you climb into bed at night. Your nightie pulls up and I get a clear view of you, your panties clinging to every curve. That, baby, is hot."
She blushed a beautiful pink, then hid her face in my chest, "I'd like it if you would sleep without a shirt more often."I groaned. She's going to be the death of me.
"Anything you ask for, baby." How am I supposed to say no to something like that? She wants to sleep against my bare chest, I never really thought about a woman wanting that. I couldn't wait to have her naked chest pressed against mine, now that's how I'd like to sleep. I was pulled from thoughts of her breasts pressed against me when she went on.
"Well, I was wondering…I really liked this evening." She stopped …that…yeah, I got nothin'.
She sighed, her face flushing, she seemed…turned on? "Having you dress me was the hottest thing I've ever experienced." Oh, me too love, me too.
"It was for me too, baby. But that's not a question. Now what are you wondering?" I pulled her more firmly against me, showing her the effect she has on me.
She took a deep breath that I could feel everywhere our bodies touched. "Would you choose the bra and panties you want me to wear tomorrow for your surprise? You did tell me to dress up…" Bloody hell!
"Bloody hell!" I took in several manly gasps. There was no way in hell I was going to hyperventilate like some girl.
"I'll do that for you anytime you ask, my love. I'll spend the entire day imagining you wearing what I pick out for you; knowing the panties that are nestled snuggely against you are the ones I chose for you to wear." Oh hell, I'll be thinking of that for years to come.
Her eyes glazed and breathing became labored, she liked that I'll be imagining what she's wearing under her dress. She slowly stepped back, I knew she was trying to calm down, not ready to move too fast.
"I love the idea too, Jasper." She turned toward the bed and stopped, just looking at the bed, she knows I'll be watching her.
I put one hand on her hip and slid my other hand up until it rested just under her round breast. I leaned down to her ear,my voice was rough when I said, "Go climb into bed now, baby."
As she walked to the bed, I leaned against the dresser; I got the best view. She had to hop just a little to get onto the high bed, making her nightie lift, revealing her panties. She crawled across the bed, I wanted so badly to run my hand over her rear, squeezing and caressing her. Before my fantasy got to far out of hand I lay beside her, pulling her too me."Sweetheart, bloody hell you're sexy. I love you, my beautiful Isabella."
"I love you too." She kissed my cheek, driving me crazy when she grazed the edge of my lips with hers.
Looking into her eyes I told her, "Open for me, baby." I took her mouth, she trembled against me.
JPOV
I woke up early, kissed Isabella softly and climbed out of bed. Her request the night before was foremost on my mind.
I went and pulled a dress from her closet, a blue Grecian dress that would make Isabella's skin glow. It would wrap around her and accentuate her curves. I went to her dresser and looked through her lingerie. I found a deep blue bra very similar to the one I'd fantasized about her wearing, a bra that had a deep plunging line and left most of her soft pale breasts uncovered.
The panties I chose for her would have me aching for the rest of the day. The same blue as the bra, they tied at each hip and had lace that would hide her from me if I were lucky enough to see her in them. I also chose her garter and stockings, placing all of them with her dress. I quickly wrote a note for her to find when she woke up, since I would be out running last minute errands until this afternoon.
My love,
I'll be imagining these on you all day. Warm and snug against your body.
I'll see you at 5:00 this evening, here on the back patio.
Alice is expecting you when you wake up. Take the dress and shoes with you. Don't let her talk you into changing lingerie; I want to know you're wearing the ones I chose for you.
Have fun with Alice, and enjoy your day.
Yours,
Jasper
I put the note with her lingerie.
I got dressed and poured my coffee into a travel mug. I had an appointment at the jewelers this morning. It felt like I'd shopped at every jeweler in the state before I'd found the perfect ring for my Isabella. It was stunning, but not overstated…whatever that means. The jeweler had said it while I had looked at it.
It was a 45 minute drive across town to get to the only jeweler that had what I'd been looking for. This was the one, when I'd seen it the first time, I'd known. Sapphires and diamonds, the blue of the sapphire would look good on her. I could see Isabella wearing it, twirling it around her finger when she's thinking or rubbing it when she's nervous.
I pushed the door to the shop open, going directly to where the older gentleman stood behind the glass cases. "I knew you'd be here as soon as my doors were open. It's ready for you." He chuckled as he pulled the perfect ring from the back. He held it out to me and I brushed my finger across the words I'd had engraved inside the ring.
We walked over to the cashiers counter. He gave me the total, I pulled out cash, handing it too him. I'd stopped at the bank yesterday. When I put my ring on Isabella's finger, it will be hers. I like knowing I can give this to her, that it will be totally and completely hers, just like I am. I rolled my eyes at my sentimental thoughts, must be the jewelry store.
After that was taken care of, I told him the other items I was looking for. An hour and a half later I left, having found everything I needed.
After driving back across town, picking up lunch and stopping at the locally famous Cheesecake Emporium for tonight's dessert, I headed for the florist. Alice had mentioned several months ago how much Isabella likes daisies. I'd called early yesterday and told them what I needed for tonight. Red roses and daisies were going to be spread around the patio and on the table. I'd probably put a few candles around too; something the florist had advised when I'd told her what the flowers were for.
After dropping everything at home, I went to get wine and the steaks that I'd ordered from our favorite steakhouse, all that was left to do was set the scene. Glancing at the time, I had an hour and a half before Isabella would be here.
I set the flowers and candles around the patio, putting a small bouquet in the middle of the patio table. I showered and dressed in a suit and tie, not something I often had to wear, but the occasion seemed to call for it. The wine was chilling, the food heating and her ring was burning a hole in my pocket.
At five minutes until five, I lit the candles and put the food on the plates. I'd chosen a favorite guitar CD of mine to play softly in the background. When her car pulled into the drive, everything was ready, her ring in my pocket. I met her at the door, pulling her into her welcome home kiss.
"How was your day with Alice, love?" They always had fun together; I wondered what trouble they'd gotten into today.
"Oh, the usual, we drove the Major crazy for a while, arguing over which chick flick was the worst. Of course being us, we couldn't agree. She likes the strangest movies, I can't believe the things she watches. What did you do today?"
"I took care of some things across town then spent the afternoon getting ready for your surprise." With that I took her hand and led her to the patio, which was lit with candles, smelled of roses and had the perfect mood music, if I do say so myself.
"Ohh, Jasper." She whispered. "It's beautiful." When her eyes filled, I pulled her to me in a tight hug.
"I love you." I repeated to her until she leaned back and smiled up at me.
"Sit here, I'll bring out our plates." I carried both plates outside, set hers in front of her, then poured the wine.
"For dessert I got your favorite from the Cheesecake Emporium."
"You went to the Cheesecake Emporium?" She laughed, her face lighting up.
"Don't worry; I made sure no one saw me." I grinned at her.
"You'd never live it down if someone did see you, poor baby."
"I'd survive, I'm sure a few well placed threats would do the trick. Besides, it was for you, I'd put up with any amount of harrassment for you." She laughed. "What else did you and Alice do today?"
"I tried to get her to tell me why she calls the Major, Major. She just laughed and danced around the room. You don't know do you?"
"Nope, they just laugh and smile at each other when I ask. I do know his first name, but that was only because I told him if he wanted to marry my daughter, he'd better tell me his name. I might or might not have done a background check on him." She laughed. I wondered what she would think if she knew I'd seriously considered it.
"What is it?!" I thought she was going to come across the table for a second.
"Honey…well, there's a funny story about that…"
"She made you promise not to tell! That evil, evil, bad woman! Why?!"
"Honestly, baby, I have no idea. Somewhere in Alice's mind is some diabolical plan, and I'm not sure I really want to know what it is." Laughing, she threw her head back.
"It's a good thing I love her, or I might have to kill her."
"I think there's some sentimental thing behind her calling him the Major, and she's afraid if she told us his name, we'd start calling him by that. Although, if I were the Major, I'd be a little offended that she didn't want to call me by my real name." I shrugged.
"Knowing Alice, she probably charmed him into it; he's so in love with her." I laughed, thinking that she's probably right.
Conversation flowed between us, my nerves building as we got closer to dessert.
"Let me get dessert for us, I'll be right back." I pulled her ring from my pocket and just barely slid it into the top of her slice of cheesecake. I carried both pieces outside, setting hers in front of her. When she looked down and froze, I slowly bent down on one knee.
I reached up and pulled the ring from her cheesecake. I lifted it too her mouth, her tongue flicked out and licked the little bit of cheesecake off. Crap, that was hot! Taking her hand in mine, I pressed a kiss to her fingers.
"Isabella, I know this might seem fast, since we shared our first kiss only a few weeks ago. But what I feel for you is so much deeper than just a physical need. I've known and loved your beautiful spirit and loving heart since you became friends with Alice when you were both in pigtails; you were my sweet Alice and Bella. I've watched you grow from a young child into a lovely girl and finally blooming into an exquisite woman. The woman you've become has my heart, my lovely Isabella. I want to spend the rest of my life knowing the first thing I'll see in the morning is your face. I want to come home to your laugh and your smile. Your beautiful body has been the one that enticed me; I want you to be the last woman I will ever make love with. Will you marry me, Isabella?" I held my breath, waiting for her response.
