Enjoy ;)


Saturday 14th June 2008 - continued.

Hearing the music begin to play, all the guests stood to their feet and turned to watch as the bridesmaids walked down the aisle with the groomsmen. Biting her lip, Clarisse's heart began to beat that little bit faster in anticipation of seeing her husband, and she wasn't disappointed when she finally laid eyes on him walking up the aisle with Alysse, helping her scatter the rose petals over the sand.

"Oh god," she whispered to herself, but was surprised when Maya, who was stood beside her and had obviously heard her, turned and looked at her.

"Are you okay?" Maya whispered while leaning closer to her.

"Yes, sorry," she mouthed and smiled at her before they both turned back to watch Joseph continue his walk up the aisle with Alysse.

And walking around to take a seat the other side of Clarisse a moment later, Joseph watched as she slowly averted her gaze up to meet his gaze. Smiling, he reached out for her hand and took his place beside her as they prepared to watch Vicki walk down the aisle with Enzo.

"You look gorgeous," he whispered in her ear and watched as she turned her head to look at him. The look that made his heart skip a beat, the look that filled him with so much desire each and every time she looked at him that way.

"Thank you, so do you," she whispered back and bit her bottom lip as she studied his face when Vicki's entrance music began to play. Smiling, they both turned their attention back to Vicki and Enzo as they made their way slowly up the aisle towards Beppe.

Early Evening.

Standing with Gino, Enzo and several others as the reception got underway, Joseph absentmindedly took a sip of his non alcoholic beer as the men talked amongst themselves, and watched as Clarisse posed for a photo with Maya and Vicki before they all laughed together. Smiling, he looked away and at the group to find them all looking at him.

"What did I miss?" He asked and took another sip of his beer.

"Not much," Enzo smirked with a shake of his head as the other men laughed, "I'm just going to go over and check on the women, you coming?"

"Sure," Joseph smiled and they began walking over to where Clarisse, Maya and Vicki all stood and as soon as they see them approaching they stopped talking and smiled up at them.

"Oh that's ominous," Enzo smirked and put his arm around Maya's back as he kissed her cheek. "Which only means one thing, right Joe?" He said and looked at Joseph.

"Right," Joseph smirked and leant closer to kiss Clarisse, "you were all talking about us."

"Oh really, you are both so suspicious at times," Vicki rolled her eyes and giggled with Clarisse and Maya. "Anyway I'll be back soon, I'm just going to check on Beppe."

"Ok sweetheart," Maya smiled and watched as she walked away before looking back at Clarisse and Joseph. "It's been such a lovely day, hasn't it?"

"Mmhmm it has," Clarisse said and nodded in agreement, "they both looked so beautiful stood at the altar exchanging their vows. With Beppe in his kilt and Vicki in her gorgeous dress and her flower crown, they both looked absolutely stunning."

"They did and you could certainly see the love that they have for one another," Joseph added.

"We agree, and after ten years of them dating we never thought this day would come, did we sweetheart?" Enzo said and looked at Maya as she shook her head.

"No we didn't," Maya said with a shake of her head and reached out to take hold of Joseph's hand, giving it a small squeeze as she continued. "And I'm so glad that you got to be here to share her special day with us."

"Me too," Joseph nodded and leant closer to kiss her cheek as she put her free arm up around his shoulders, "thank you for raising her well."

"You're welcome, but please don't or you'll start me off again," Maya said as they stepped apart and laughed a little.

"It has certainly been an emotional day," Clarisse said as they all looked at her.

"It has, yes," nodded Maya, "but all happy tears of course."

"Oh of course," Clarisse nodded and looked at Joseph as he wrapped his arm around her back, slipping his hand on her side.


"Mom, dad," Vicki smiled as she stood beside them and watched them turn to her, "this is Beppe's brother, Luca," she said and looked at him standing to her side, "he's been dying to meet you since you arrived."

"Oh how lovely," Clarisse smiled and watched as he and Joseph shook hands.

"It is my pleasure to have you here, and I can't apologise enough for not having chance to meet you before now," he said and stepped closer to Clarisse, kissing her cheek before stepping back, "but making sure everything goes to plan for today has been my main priority the last few days."

"Of course," Joseph nodded, "and it's great to finally meet you. You and your team have done a wonderful job today."

"Thank you," Luca smiled and looked at Vicki, "only the best for my baby brother and his beautiful bride."

"Oh thank you," Vicki smiled as he put his arm around her shoulders and kissed the side of her head.

"You have such a lovely hotel here," Clarisse smiled as they all looked at her, "it's such a great spot being right on the sea front."

"Thank you, I'm glad you like it," Luca nodded with a smile, "and I hope you are enjoying your suite?" He asked and watched as both Clarisse and Joseph nodded.

"Oh we are indeed," Clarisse smiled.

"That's great, when Vicki told me that you enjoyed an ocean view I knew straight away what suite to put you in," Luca smiled as Clarisse glanced at Vicki and reached out for her hand, "and if you are ever visiting again in the future be sure to let us know and you can stay here, free of charge."

"Oh goodness, no, if we stay again we will pay our way," Joseph said with a shake of his head.

"No no, I don't charge family for staying at my hotel and you are family," Luca smiled, "so I insist."

"Oh well that's very generous of you, Luca," Clarisse smiled, "thank you."

"It's my pleasure," Luca smiled and took hold of her hand, kissing the back of it.

"Now then, please can we have the happy couple up on the dance floor for their first dance as husband and wife please," announced the DJ as Vicki and Beppe made their way to the dance floor and everyone turned to watch them. "They danced to this song on their very first date and now here they are dancing to it on their wedding day ten years later," he said while watching the bride and groom take their place on the floor before looking back up at the guests and pressed for the song to play.

As the happy couple began to sway slowly to the song, lost in their own world, Joseph placed his drink down on the table beside them and stood behind Clarisse. Putting his hands on her hips, he stepped closer and circled his arms around her waist, resting his hands against her abdomen and kissed the curve of her neck before resting the side of his head against hers.

"Are you okay?" Clarisse asked a moment later while putting her hand up to cup his cheek.

"I am doing great," he smiled against her cheek, "are you?"

"Oh yes," she laughed and bit her bottom lip as he swayed his hips slightly behind her.

"Now, I want all you lovely people up on the floor to join in for the next song," the DJ said several moments later as the song finished. "It's LA TARANTELLA TIME!" He exclaimed and everyone cheered.

Later.

Reaching between Joseph and Gino sitting at their table with Pierre, Laura and Elly, Clarisse placed her glass down and stepped back as Joseph stood to his feet and turned to her. "Here, have my seat."

"No, it's okay," she smiled and shook her head.

"Where have you been, mom?" Pierre asked and sipped his drink as she turned her head to look at him sitting at the table beside Laura.

"Oh, I've been talking with Maya and Enzo," she smiled and looked back up at Joseph as she put her hands on his sides.

"Ahh," Pierre said and placed his drink back down on the table as Joseph leant closer to whisper in Clarisse's ear while putting his hands on the tops of her arms.

"What time did you say you were leaving tomorrow?" Gino asked Pierre and took a sip of his drink before placing his bottle of beer back on the table.

"Well our flight is booked in for one," Pierre said, looking up at him then averted his gaze to his mom and dad standing slightly behind Gino and raised his eyebrow when he saw them kissing slowly as she smoothed her hands up his back and Joseph wrapped his arms around her shoulders. "Uh," he said, shaking his head and looked back at Gino, "whether we make that slot, I don't know."

"I see," Gino nodded and watched as Pierre and Laura smirked at one another, "and your moms going back with you both, while Joe stays here, is that right?" He asked as they both looked back at him.

"Yes, dads staying to help with getting people to the airport and such, and moms coming back because she's standing in for Mia at a luncheon on Monday," Pierre said and looked up as his mom and dad turned to walk away.

"Wonder where they are going," Laura smirked as she looked back at Pierre.

"I don't want to think about it," Pierre laughed and shook his head.

"What's that?" Gino asked.

"Clarisse and Joseph got a bit flirty behind you, and have just gone off," Laura smirked.

"Oh!" Gino exclaimed and they all laughed.

"Well she's done well, but I guess she couldn't keep her hands off him any longer," Elly said as Pierre gasped.

"Elly!" Pierre exclaimed and they all started laughing once again.


"Here's your mom and dad coming," Beppe said and watched as Vicki turned around.

"Mom, dad? Are you okay?" Vicki asked as they walked hand in hand towards her.

"Yes, we are just going for a little walk along the beach," Joseph nodded as they stopped in front of them, "what are you doing out here?" He asked as Clarisse bent over to remove her shoes.

"Oh, we are just getting some photographs taken as the sun sets," Vicki smiled as Clarisse stood back up straight.

"Oh how lovely," Joseph smiled and took the shoes from Clarisse, "well we will try our best to keep out of shot, but if we do end up getting in the way please shout us and let us know."

"Oh you'll be fine," smiled the photographer as everyone looked at him, "I can work round that."

"Alright then," Joseph smiled as he took Clarisse's hand once again, "well have fun."

"We will and enjoy your walk," Vicki smiled as her mom and dad began walking away.

"We will," Joseph said as he turned back to look at her.

Smiling, Vicki watched them a moment, "I know we are out here to take photos of us, but can we get one of them walking," she said and turned back to Beppe and their photographer, "I think it would make a nice photo of them for their anniversary next month," she smiled and looked back at them as they stopped for a quick kiss before continuing on their walk.

"Sure," the photographer smiled and prepared to take the photo.

"Thank you," Vicki smiled, her heart warming at the sight.

"What's wrong?" Clarisse asked as she walked closer to her husband, playfully bumping her shoulder with his arm.

"Oh, it's nothing," Joseph said with a shake of his head and looked at her as she looked out at the setting sun.

"You liar," she smiled and looked back at him.

"Alright, alright," he laughed and looked down at the sand as they continued walking along slowly, "it's just with Vicki and Beppe getting married on the beach, it got me thinking that's all."

"Thinking about what?" Clarisse asked and watched as he looked back up at her.

"If you ever thought that our wedding could have been done differently," he said and watched as she looked on ahead in surprise.

"No," she answered and looked back at him with a shake of her head, "why, do you?"

"Sometimes," he said and looked on ahead, "I watched Mia and Nicholas get married and how they celebrated, and today I watched my daughter marry her best friend out here on the beach and I-, oh I don't know," he shrugged.

"Yes it's true, we could have got married on a different day and done it completely different but I think how it worked out was just right for us," she said and watched as he looked back at her. Stopping they turned to one another, and as she stepped closer to him she continued, "I had already done the big fancy wedding when I married Rupert, and we had tried to marry before but on that day, the day we finally became husband and wife was the best day of my life."

"Really?" He asked and wrapped his arms around her waist, as she snaked her arms up around his neck.

"Yes, really," she nodded with a smile and looked up into his eyes, "because none of it was ours, it had all been planned and arranged for Mia and Andrew, but I still got to marry my best friend and to me that's all that matters, is that I got to marry you," she said and reached up to kiss him slowly a long moment before pulling back to look into his eyes once again. "Besides, you made up for it on our first anniversary with planning things to how we might have had it for our big day."

"That's true," he said softly and smiled down at her as she smoothed one of her hands over his shoulder to cup his face, "I did."

"I'm just glad that you said yes though, or we wouldn't be here now that's for sure," she smiled.

"As if I could say no," he exclaimed and they both gazed into each other's eyes a moment. "You know, you can still here the music from here," he said while looking up in the direction of the wedding reception.

"Yes, you can," Clarisse smiled as she looked that way too before looking back up at her husband.

"And I quite like this song playing now," he smiled while leaning to one side and placed her shoes down in the sand before standing back up in front of her. "Dance with me?"

"I would love too," she smiled as he took hold of one of her hands while stepping closer to her and wrapped his other arm around her waist.

Swaying together in time to the music, Clarisse wrapped her free arm around his shoulders, placing her hand on the back of his neck as Joseph began singing the words softly in Clarisse's ear and slipped his knee between hers as they danced. Lifting her head, she gazed up into his eyes and smiled.


"We're back," Clarisse smiled as she sat down at the table.

"Oh good god Clarisse," Elly exclaimed as she leant forward and put her hands up, covering Clarisse's chest and surprising her, Joseph and Gino as she did.

"What are you doing?" Clarisse laughed as she pulled back and looked down to see why she was covering her up for.

"You're flashing a bit of your bra," Elly said as Clarisse gasped.

"Oh god," Clarisse exclaimed while standing to her feet and turned to Joseph.

"What did you get up to while you were gone?" Gino laughed as Clarisse readjusted her dress.

"Nothing at all," Clarisse laughed and turned back to them, "we were dancing out on the sand and Joseph dipped me, that's all."

"Oh really?" Gino teased as Joseph put his hands on Clarisse's hips and moved behind her to sit in the seat she had been sat in a moment before.

"Yes really," Clarisse said and picked up her drink, "anyway, where has Pierre and Laura gone?"

"Oh they have gone up to their suite, Laura was feeling a bit tired so they called it a night," Elly said and sipped her own drink as Clarisse turned to find Joseph in her seat.

"Heeey," Clarisse exclaimed as Joseph and Gino laughed, "what are you doing? That's my seat."

"You have a perfectly good seat, right here," Joseph smiled up at her while patting his thigh as she laughed.

"You're right," she smiled and stepped between his legs as he put his hands up onto her hips, guiding her down onto his thigh. "And you're much more comfortable than those seats."

"Of course I am," he smiled while wrapping his arm around her back, slipping his hand onto her thigh as she sipped her drink and looked into his eyes.

"You two are the cutest," Elly smiled as Clarisse leant to the side to place her drink down on the table before sitting back on Joseph's lap properly.

"Thank you," Joseph smiled at her then at Gino as Clarisse put her arm around his shoulders. "If I give you my phone, can you take a picture of us please?"

"Of course I can," nodded Gino and put his drink down on the table as Joseph took his phone from his waistcoat pocket and handed it to him.

"Thank you," Joseph smiled and looked lovingly up at Clarisse.

"Ahh so you caught the sun while sunbathing up on your hotel suite balcony," Gino said and smirked at Clarisse and Joseph as they both looked at him.

"Well yes I did, but how did you-," she said as Gino held up Joseph's phone to show her the screensaver he has on his phone. "What?" She exclaimed while taking it from him and looked better at the photo of her relaxing on a sun lounger with her sunglasses on and with one of her arms resting above her head as she smiled for the camera. "I can't believe you have this photo as your screensaver," she exclaimed while looking at Joseph.

"Relax, no one can see anything," he said as she shook her head and looked back down at the phone.

"That's not the point, people might look at this and think I was actually naked," she whispered to Joseph and looked up at Gino as she passed him the phone back, "I would like to point out that I am wearing a swimming costume, I just took the straps off so that I would get an even tan on my shoulders instead of having white lines."

"Oh I completely understand," Gino nodded and looked down at the phone to get the camera up as Clarisse put her hand up and playfully gripped hold of Joseph's jaw.

"You are lucky that I love you," Clarisse said and kissed him a couple times, not realising that Gino snapped a photo of them. "Alright, let's do this photo."

"Okay," Joseph smiled and buried his face in the crook of her neck a moment before looking back up at her. "I love you."

"I love you too," she whispered, giving him a quick kiss before posing for the photo.

Later That Night.

"Do you have any idea how hard it has been trying to keep my hands of you today?" Clarisse said as she and Joseph walked hand in hand down the corridor towards their hotel suite.

"What about me?" He laughed and looked at her, "you have done nothing but tease me all day."

"I have done no such thing," Clarisse exclaimed as they come to a stop at their door and she turned to him. "You on the other hand," she smirked while taking hold of the edges of Joseph's waistcoat and pulled him a little bit closer, "I can't wait to finally get you alone."

"Oh really," he laughed while putting his hands on her sides and smiled as she put her arms up, locking them around his neck.

"Where's the key card?" Clarisse asked as she looked up into his eyes.

"In my sporran," Joseph smiled.

"In your sporran?" She asked while lowering her arms from around his neck.

"Yes," he nodded and watched as she pulled back slightly and looked down between them. Laughing, he studied her face as she got the key card from his sporran and turned to unlock the door.

Pushing the door open, Clarisse turned back to Joseph and reached up to kiss him while reaching for his hands. Pulling back a moment later, she took her bottom lip between her teeth as she started backing into the suite, making Joseph laugh as he started walking with her.


Collapsing on top of her after a round of lovemaking, Joseph kissed Clarisse's jaw and buried his face in the curve of her neck, trying to steady his breathing while resting his elbows on the bed beside her shoulders as he continued thrusting slowly.

"That felt so good," Clarisse whispered breathlessly in her husbands ear, and smiled as he laughed on top of her.

"Good, I'm glad you thought so," he replied and lifted his head to look down into her eyes while smoothing one hand under her pillow, and his other hand he brushed through her hair.

"I always think so," she smiled and lifted her head to kiss him a couple times before resting her head back down on the pillow. Closing her eyes, she smoothed her hands from his sides up to the back of his shoulders.

"Ready for round two?" Joseph asked huskily in her ear a moment later and smiled against her neck as she laughed beneath him.

"Do whatever you want with me," Clarisse replied and opened her eyes as Joseph lifted his head to look down in her eyes.

"Are you sure?" He said in surprise.

"Yes, of course I'm sure," Clarisse replied and kissed him before whispering in his ear, "please, you make me feel amazing."

Watching her rest her head back down on the pillow, Joseph smiled and kissed her several times as he began thrusting faster, causing her to moan in pleasure as she closed her eyes.
