March 25, 2010
This morning I woke Jasper up once again with the promise of food. Yesterday, while he was at school, we got a delivery. I called the restaurant that featured the massive cinnamon roll and found out that they would ship them. I was so excited at the prospect of giving it to him. When I opened the box, I was flabbergasted. The thing was massive, bigger than my head! There was no way that Jasper was going to be able to eat it all, but I couldn't wait to see the look on his face when he saw it. I was going to be his hero for sure.
I told Jasper that if he got showered and dressed in 20 minutes, that I had a surprise for him at the table. His ears perked a little and he asked me if I was going to shower with him. I had to inform my lovely boy that I had already showered, gotten dressed, made coffee and was working on his present. He stuck his lower lip out and started to pull the covers over his head. I nipped that one in the bud real quick by yanking them clean off the bed. He curled his naked ass into a little ball and I tried to contain my laughter. I did not need Grumpy throwing a fit if he thought I was making fun of him.
I called back for him to get his butt in the shower, that I started the timer. When I heard the shower turn on, I pulled out the cinnamon roll and stuck it in the oven to heat up. If it were up to Jasper, everything would be heated in a microwave. I was a firm believer that stoves and ovens were better geared to keeping the food from tasting like rubber. When Sleepyhead finally wandered out to the kitchen, I pulled him into my arms, kissed his sleepy eyes and then his perfect lips. He finally started to act alive, groaning and opening his mouth up to mine. I slid my tongue in for a quick taste of my favorite elixir...Jasper. His mouth was always so hot, wet and delicious.
When I pulled away, he moved his head forward, trying to keep kissing me. I told him to sit and I would get him some coffee and his breakfast. He grinned, patted his tummy and told me to feed him. I poured him a steaming mug of java and then opened the oven. His eyes zoned out when he saw it. He was hypnotized. When he finally snapped out of it he looked at me and asked if it was from Lulu's. When I nodded, he jumped up and kissed me, then sat right back down.
I sat opposite him and watched him while he attempted to devour the butter and icing covered pastry. He cut into it with such enthusiasm, but as the minutes passed, his movements got slower and slower. When he had taken in all he could handle, there was still two-thirds of the cinnamon roll left. Jasper looked over at me, his face a little green from eating so much. I took his hand and led him outside for a walk around the block, trying to help it all settle. Jasper held onto my hand tightly the entire time and when we made our way back to the apartment, he told me he wasn't ready to let go, and we walked around once more. He laced our pinkies together and hummed the song he wrote me while we wandered around the neighborhood. It was the perfect start to our day.
Later on, we rented an SUV and headed to the airport for a few hours. Everyone was coming in within two hours of one another. We sat in a restaurant in the B terminal, which was central to where everyone was deplaning. It wasn't long before all of our friends were together again. From high school there was Mike, Tyler, Angela and Sam. Our friends from college were Eric, Bella and Leah. It was going to be a tight squeeze, but it didn't matter to any of us. We were all back together again and before we knew it, stories were flying and the car was filled with laughter.
We dropped everyone at the hotel to leave their things before we all went back to the apartment. Everyone came over for pizza and beer, even our mothers. Alice, Rosalie and Jake had just as much fun as we did, reminiscing about our school days and the mamas had to cover their ears at some of the stories. There were so many things we had forgotten about. We stayed up well past our bedtime talking and joking and planning the bachelor party. Jasper and I were told that all we were to do was come along for the ride.
We had wonderful friends and we missed them a lot. We sent everyone back to the hotel around 1AM, trusting Mike with the rental and hoping that wasn't a mistake. Everyone else left soon after. When the apartment was finally cleared, I pinned Jasper against the door and kissed him with all the pent-up frustration that was building inside of me. He participated with equal intensity - tongues and lips becoming one. We quickly stripped out of our clothes, being very careful not to separate our mouths for longer than necessary.
Jasper walked us into our room before finally pulling away. I looked at him, wearing nothing but the ring I was going to place on his finger around his neck. The moon reflected off of it and he had never looked more handsome in my eyes. I reached out and touched the ring as he closed his eyes. Whispering that I couldn't wait to slip it on his finger, I kissed the ring, then the finger that was going to wear it proudly. I placed my mouth against his chest and murmured against his skin that my heart was made to love him, then I took him to bed. We laid there, facing one another, fingers intertwined and breaths passing across to one another. Jasper and I fell asleep skin to skin, heart to heart, with forever on the horizon.
Until tomorrow...
