Chapter 55: A passionate night

Scarlett looked herself in the mirror and was wonderfully beautiful. She smiled before her own image and Rosemary applauded completely happy. How she felt good to go back to wearing a dress really liked. Now she was being herself. The dress perfectly modeled her body and she placed a hyper tight corset to leave, her thinner waist than it already was. Passed rouge on the cheeks, made a nice coke at the top of the head leaving the neck completely to shows and placed a pair of diamond earrings in her tiny ears. Rosemary placed the stole around her shoulders and commented:

"You are beautiful, my sister-in-law! You are wonderful! "

"It's true, Rosemary. I have to agree with you ... "Scarlett laughed looking at herself in the mirror.

They spent the whole day locked in the room. Scarlett saw through the window, Rhett arrived at the bank at the end of the afternoon, but decided to remain locked because wanted appear in front of him already produced and ready. Rhett climbed the upstairs and knocked on the door of the room:

"My love, open the door to your dear husband. "he asked fondly.

Scarlett's heart nearly came out through the mouth. She and Rosemary fell into laughter.

"No. I'm just going to leave the room when i stay ready! "she shouted toward the door.

"Okay, Mrs. Butler. But, don't leave me for a long time without being able to see you. It was very hard to be without you during all day. "he said laughing, too." I'll be in my room, I'm going to take a shower if you want share the bathtub with me is just looking for me. "

"Rhett!" Scarlett screamed fully flushed and embarrassed. Rosemary putted the hand in her mouth totally shocked and stayed red with shame too.

Rhett laughed even more and went to his room to get ready for the meeting later.

"Wow, Scarlett! I didn't know that my brother was so excited like this. "Rosemary commented laughing again.

"You can't imagine ... excited is little for him." Scarlett commented laughing too. "He kills me with shame."

When Scarlett left the room absolutely beautiful and radiant, Rhett was already waiting for her outside, leaning in the carriage. The moon had highlighted in the dark sky and Rhett was already impatient smoking a cigar. It didn't take long and she appeared alone at the front door, making Rhett choke and throw the cigar down, stepping on him. He looked at her from top to down and smiled slyly. She was beautiful! How he missed her during all day! It was hard for him to be without her presence, couldn't even work right. He came off the bank in the lunch break and bought the dress and bouquet of flowers, sending deliver as soon as possible. Rhett realized that the dress perfectly modeled her body. Smiled satisfied because he had made the right choice, she was radiant and would be hard for him not to touch her before the final that night. Scarlett smiled at him and lifted her chin impertinent while climbing down the stairs toward the carriage. Rhett opened the little door, took off his top hat and lowered his head doing a reverence for his wonderful wife.

"Mrs. Butler." He greeted affectionately kissing her hand. "I was eagerly waiting for you. You are beautiful, wonderful! "

Scarlett looked at him and melted. Rhett was very elegant. He wore a tuxedo and tail-coat and was completely with combed hair and perfectly trimmed mustache. The scent of him almost poisoned Scarlett and for a brief moment she trembled the legs underneath the dress.

"Come, my darling. The night is a child for us. "

Rhett helped her climb in the carriage and asked for Corn lead them to the docks of Charleston. Along the way, Scarlett was not knowing what to do. She was shy as a girl in love. Rhett realized she was embarrassed. He smiled and held her hand affectionately, making her tremble.

"Are you afraid of me, Scarlett?" he asked fondly.

"No. It's not that ... is that ... "she couldn't explain. If tell that was embarrassed, Rhett would laugh at her. He was wonderfully cute and she was awkwardly on his side.

Rhett looked at her eyes and could realize her shyness. He laughed, but before that Scarlett could open the mouth to protest, he kissed her the lips tenderly.

"I was looking forward to kiss you, my dear." he muttered after breaking the kiss.

"Not here! We are not alone! "Scarlett exclaimed flushed pointing to Corn.

"He's not seeing anything ... "he answered and pulled her into another kiss.

This time, the kiss was deep and Rhett placed his tongue in her mouth pulling her against him tightly. Scarlett corresponded to the kiss promptly, because also was missing the kiss him. He broke the kiss again and commented smiling and totally breathless.

"My dear, I think that we should stop here, because I'm not responsible for my actions and I can lose the control with you here in this chariot."

Scarlett laughed doing Rhett laugh too. They were so happy and so affectionate with each other. Scarlett laid her head on his shoulder and sighed, while Rhett affectionately kissed her hairs. They looked like two young people in love, but without the courage to confess the love that one felt for each other. Rhett hoped anxiously by the time would be alone with her again. He thirsted of her body and the last night seemed very distant to him. Needed love her again and as soon as possible.

"Rhett?" Scarlett called.

"Huh?" he murmured kissing her hair.

"Where are you taking me?" she asked curious.

"It's a surprise, my dear. Patience, my love. "he whispered affectionately.

"You know I don't have patience for surprises, Rhett Butler." Scarlett said infuriated.

"Well, now, you will have to have, my dear. To get there, I will not say a single word. "he said decided. Scarlett snorted angrily and Rhett laughed again. She never had the patience for anything.

Corn stopped the carriage in front of the pier and Rhett helped Scarlett to step down. She grabbed his arm tightly, because was very windy and was cold. Scarlett was wearing a stole, but the wind was too cold. Rhett took her up to the deck and Scarlett spotted an enormous and beautiful boat moored.

"We're going boating as we did during our honeymoon in New Orleans?"

"No, my pet. Inside this wonderful boat has a huge restaurant where they serve a appreciable meal and I'm taking you out to dinner. "he explained sweetly.

"Oh, Rhett! What a wonderful surprise! "Scarlett exclaimed happy grabbing even more his arm. She was excited as a child and her heart was beating wildly in her chest.

When they arrived at the restaurant inside the ship, they were sent to the best table, which was as far away from the others, near a huge balcony with overlooking the sea. Rhett pulled a chair to Scarlett sit, and then sat himself beside her, holding her hands affectionately. The restaurant was luxurious, with english furnitures, silverware and porcelain dishes, crystal bowls and a candlestick of candles on the table to give the environment a romantic and refined air.

"You're so romantic today, Rhett." Scarlett said laughing, as he lovingly kissed her hands.

"Let's say that today I am with a mood better, that's all." he whispered, kissing her hands.

Scarlett ate a lot that night, being watched closely by Rhett. He was glad by see her eat with an insatiable appetite. Was a good time that he didn't see her eating that way. She repeated the main course and the dessert. They drank wine and champagne and merrily talked, how were not during long ago to the sound of a soft music played through a grand piano. Rhett called the waiter and said something in his ear that Scarlett could not understand. The waiter nodded with the head and withdrew. Rhett and Scarlett rose from the table and went to the balcony, embraced, look at sea, the moon and few stars that shone in the sky. She wanted to ask if he would return to Atlanta in early January, but didn't have the guts. He wanted to ask her to stay in Charleston until the reform of Dunmore Landing, but also had no courage. They were together again, but they didn't know where they would live.

Scarlett had the mansion and the store in Atlanta and Rhett was excited with the repurchase of Dunmore Landing in Charleston. This created a standoff between the two who were not prepared to discuss at the moment. The wind was icy that night of winter and Scarlett snuggled further into the arms of Rhett while both looked to the sky. She knew that was only a matter of time for him to confess the love that he felt.

Rhett has never been so romantic with her as that night. She felt herself radiant by realize the looks of that women without grace upon the beautiful and elegant husband that she had. Rhett was hers and only hers, and the others would have to be content to just see him. Scarlett grabbed his arm with possessiveness making him laugh. She knew that highlighted herself among all those women, but had very jealous of her husband. A jealous that never felt before. Rhett affectionately kissed her forehead and muttered:

"It's late, my love, let's go home?"

She lifted her head to look at his black eyes and realized that they were shining full of promises for the remainder of the night. She agreed nodding her head and smiling too. She hooked her arm in the strong arm of Rhett and both came back into inside the restaurant.
