Wow! Twenty-One Parts!!! Thank you so much for sticking with me until the end… are you still there by the way? J

Sam opened his eyes when he felt Josie stir beside him. He gently ran his hand through her body until he reached his destination, outlining the ring that was placed on her right hand. "Mmm-hmm." She murmured as she snuggled deeply in his embrace. He smiled and kissed the top of her head.

He lay down there, quietly as he listened to Josie's slow and controlled breathing. He reveled in being close to her. 'I'm so happy right now. I could die.' He thought to himself. "Sam. You can't die." Sam looked at Josie in surprise. "What honey?" "You said that you're so happy right now that you could die." She explained, a frown on her face.

He smoothed out her hair and held her closer. "I didn't know I said that out loud." Josie giggled. "You were in another world for a while." She whispered as she started to kiss his throat. "Yeah. I was." He breathed as he gently ran his fingers through her silky hair. Josie suddenly looked up and met his eyes. "I forgot to greet you. Good morning my fiancé."

Sam smiled at her greeting. "That sounds really good my fiancée." He answered back as he moved in to kiss her. After a few moments, they pulled apart and he held her close. "I'm so happy Sam. Thank you." "I'm so happy too. I've never been happier." He answered honestly. She pulled away and met his gaze. "So, when do you want to get married?" she inquired.

"Hmm… I don't know… how about now?" he teased. Josie laughed. "Oh, I do want to marry you right now… you know… me wearing nothing but my man made toga… and you wearing nothing but your cute penguin boxer shorts." Sam laughed at the mention of his favorite pair. "That doesn't sound bad." He whispered suggestively as he laid his body on top of hers.

She rolled her eyes comically. "Your so…" "What?" he whispered as he began to kiss her neck. "Umm… hey no… fair…. When you kiss me like that… I forget everything…" she avowed. Sam laughed and then felt her shiver in response. "That's always good to hear."

"You have a mouth made in heaven, Samuel." She declared as she pushed his head even closer to her neck. "I love you so much." He whispered in between kisses. "I love you too." She responded. Sam continued to hold her tight, knowing that the two of them are right where their meant to be for the rest of their lives.
