CHARLES AND ELSIE-RETIRED TOGETHER
Hello dear people. I'm back to finish what I started yesterday and what was interrupted by unexpected guests. Elsie will have her difficult talk with Mr Mason, but first she and Charlie will experience some adorable moments together (they've earned it after Becky's visit), so probably ratings will go up a little, but not that much. Hope that this chapter will be readable to you.
They slept rather long next day, feeling a need of rest, after emotionally exhausting day. Elsie was the one who woke up first and she watched her peacefully sleeping husband with pleasure. He looked like a big teddy bear, hidden in his burrow. She brushed away that favorite curl of his, from the forehead and she smiled, when he mumbled something, but kept on sleeping.
Elsie quietly got up and went downstairs, to prepare a surprise breakfast for her husband. She thought that he really deserved a delicious breakfast, for being so good with Becky. As she was hustling around the kitchen, she reminded herself all those happy moments, that they've had together, during those last, two weeks. It was so comforting-that knowledge that they are one, big happy family and that Charles fully accepted Becky.
Elsie never felt more happy in her life, than she was now, sensing that finally everything was in the right place. She placed all the food on the big tray-eggs and bacon, sausages, hot toasts. She took some honey and jam too and she made a big pot of coffee.
She stepped carefully on the stairs, trying to avoid collapsing with all this and she sighed with relief, when she got safely to the room and put the tray on the night table.
Charles was still soundly asleep, but as soon as he felt a smell of bacon, he slowly woke up from his sleep, only to find his beloved wife, bent over the tray, full of delicious food, pouring him a cup of hot coffee.
"Did I die and went straight to heaven Els? Or do I see a typical, English breakfast?"
"You are very much alive Charlie and I made this delicious breakfast for us, so we could enjoy it in here, lazily..Do you like the idea of starting our day like this?"
"I couldn't have dreamed of any better start of the day..Oh my..Those are large portions...I see someone is rather hungry.."
"I am very hungry..That last night dinner on the train was not satisfactory for me.."
"Fortunately, today we can enjoy the delicious breakfast, served by the fair hands of my lovely wife.."
"Hmmmm...I think I heard that argument once before.."
"You have..During our famous cooking fiasco days...Let's not go back to that now..Why waste a good day?"
"My point exactly. Let's have our breakfast.."
They both sat comfortably in bed, eating their food, with a great deal of appetite, sharing all the best bites. When they finished, Elsie took all the dishes and wanted to carry them down to the kitchen, but Charles stopped her, saying that he will do the dishes and she can have her bath in this time.
Her bath took more less the same time as his washing the dishes and when he went back upstairs, the bathroom was already unoccupied. He took his bath and went back to the bedroom, to get dressed, convinced that he won't find Elsie in there anymore, he figured that she probably went downstairs to start some chores around the house, but to his amazement, he found her lying on the bed, scanty dressed, looking at him with a meaningful expression, that he knew so well by now...
"Elsie..I thought that you are already downstairs..That you are..I didn't expect to find you here..What are you...?"
"What am I doing here? Waiting for my glorious husband to join me here...In bed..As I recall, you promised that we will have a day for ourselves..Just the two of us..."
"Is that so Mrs Carson? You must forgive the old fool that I am, neglecting his adorable wife..How could I have possibly done that...?"
He climbed into bed and kissed Elsie softly on her lips, inserting his hands, under her night gown...It was so wonderful to feel her velvety skin under his hands...He started to undress her slowly, still kissing her and she reciprocated, getting rid of the bathrobe that he was wearing.
When he undressed her, his eyes locked on her body...He moved his sight up and down, wanting to enjoy the essence of loveliness that she was...Elsie felt a little uneasy, as usual, when her husband expressed his adoration for her body so openly..
"Charlie...Don't look at me like that..I feel uneasy...My body is not that pretty sight.."
"Shhh...No more of that nonsense Elsie...You are the most beautiful woman in the world for me..How many times do I have to repeat it, so you can finally believe that?"
"But I'm wrinkled and floppy and..."
"But I happen to love every little wrinkle of yours honey..And every floppiness, no matter where you have it...I'm not an Adonis myself...I'm an old man with a round belly..."
"But I happen to love that belly of yours...It's so soft and comfortable..It can easily replace the pillow under my head.."
"Elsie..."
"Charlie..."
Charles lied near Elsie and they kissed...Very slowly...Without any hurry or hasty...They needed each other so much...He stroked her naked breasts, with both of his hands and he listen with pride, as she made those little whimpers that he liked so much...
Her hands caressed his chest, she played with his chest hair so casually and she slowly headed down to reach for her favorite prize..As soon as her hand closed around his manhood, he moaned into her mouth...Her delicate touches there, always sent shivers down his spine..
"Oh God Elsie...I love when you touch me..."
"Charlie...My sweetheart...I missed you so much..I missed that closeness of ours..."
"How I missed you Els..."
She kissed him on the lips and moved it to his jawline and his neck...She inhaled his scent..He had that unique scent, that was so alluring to her..When she transferred from the neck to the chest, indulging it with hot kisses, never stopping to stroke his manhood, he closed his eyes, feeling like he was nearing the paradise...There was nothing sweeter, than the hot love from his wife...He let her take the lead and he surrender willingly to her tender ministrations...
Elsie tasted Charles like the greatest wine..Savoring every little sensual sensations of his beloved body...Charles let her indulged him for few moments more and then he rolled her onto her back and let his lips wander around her...She was so delicious, so delightful...Her skin felt like the sweetest dessert, that he wanted to taste and taste, without stopping...He kissed his way down, not neglecting any of the special places on the map of her body and went back up, to land on her beautiful lips...Being married so long, they have already discovered all the variety of kisses. Sometimes they were pure passion, other times, like today, a slow dance of the wanting lips..Soft and full of love...
Charles looked Elsie deeply in her eyes, which were full of love and total devotion, as was his and he entered her, groaning from desire...They were rocking slowly, still kissing in the meantime, both decided to prolong this lovely moment, as long as it was possible...
Not only their bodies, but also their souls were one..At least that's how they felt it...
When Charles felt that his climax will hit him, he put his head on the hollow of her neck..Whispering sweet words of love, straight to her ear..She followed him almost immediately..
After it was over, they were both lying, touching their faces reverently..Charles was moving his hand on her side..Learning once again her beautiful curves and she caressed his forearm delicately...
"Charlie...I love you so much...It was so wonderful to be close with you again...I never want this to end..."
"I love you my little flower...I never want this to end either...This is the best part of our marriage.."
"You really think so?"
"Of course I do...All those years we were sharing almost everything with each other..All the happy events and all the troubles, but this...I bet you never thought it would be like this.."
"I never did...I'm so happy that you were so persistent about the question of full marriage. I can't imagine us living together, without sharing this closeness.."
"Oh my sweetheart...My beautiful sweetheart.."-He drew her impossibly closer and kissed her temple lovingly..."So you are saying that you have strong arguments for your talk with Mr Mason about the advantages of full marriage?"
"Don't even remind me about that...I still have no idea how to go through this conversation.."
"You will do fine my love...I'm sure about that..."
"Are you really?"
"I've never been so sure of anything.."
"I think I've heard that before too..You are repeating yourself today honey..."
"You have to forgive me Elsie..From two reasons...One- I'm an old man and two-it's difficult to find the right words, having such a beauty in my arms..."
"Since you put it that way, you are totally forgiven my love..."
They smiled at each other and kissed tenderly, before nestling into themselves, to satisfy the need of the connection, that has been forgotten for the last, two weeks...
Three days later
Elsie was feeling really anxious that day, when she went to the tea at Mr Mason's farm. She made sure that neither Beryl or Daisy will visit him that day, because she wanted a quiet conversation with a farmer, without any interruptions. Mr Mason was very glad about her visit, he kindly offered her tea and scones, telling her all about the preparations for the summer at the farm. Elsie told him all about the lovely garden work, that Charles was doing in their cottage and after this exchange of pleasantries, Elsie felt that it was about time to go the main goal of her visit...
"So..Mr Mason...Are you nervous about your upcoming wedding? Because I know that Beryl is a little nervous.."
"Maybe a bit, but not that much..You know how I feel about Mrs Patmore..How dear she is to me..I'm more than happy and very proud to become her husband...Besides, I was married before already, so it won't be a new thing for me.."
"That's true. It won't be a new thing for you, but it will certainly be a new thing for Beryl.."-Elsie had no idea how to go the main point of this conversation...Luckily for her, Mr Mason was a bright man, who swiftly understood that there is some hidden cause of their talk.."
"Mrs Hughes...Am I to understand that you are trying to tell me something here? Did Beryl...I mean Mrs Patmore, changed her mind possibly? Did she asked you to give this message to me? I know you are friends.."-His face expression went from the happy one, to more anxious and concerned..
"No Mr Mason. It's not that at all. Don't worry..Beryl is very happy to marry you..It's just that she...Oh God, this is so hard to talk about that with you..But she asked me to.."
"Please Mrs Hughes, just be honest with me..Whatever it is, I can take it.."
"You see...I'm the last person on earth, who would want to interfere in anyone's private business, but since Beryl is my friend and she is very insecure about some stuff, she wanted to know if you..If you will want your marriage to be a full one...Meaning..With...You know..."
"I know very well what you mean Mrs Hughes..No need to be embarrassed...I was married and you are married to Mr Carson..I see no reason for us to be embarrassed or feel uneasy with it...Even if the topic is particularly sensitive..To answer your question..Yes, I definitely want this marriage to be a full one...I couldn't think of it any other way...You see, I love Mrs Patmore..I love her very much and as I said before, I would really like her to be happy. I want us to share everything...Our work, our earthly goods and also this sphere of life...This is very important to me..As it probably is for any men..I'm sure that is the same with you and Mr Carson...Oh, I'm really sorry, I shouldn't have said it..It's not my business after all.."
"It's all right Mr Mason...Since we are being honest..It is the same for me and Mr Carson and it is that way because Beryl helped us settled this question, before we got married.."
"Did she really? How kind of her...Then you have some reasons to be grateful to her.."
"We certainly do..And that is why I agreed to have this conversation with you..Otherwise, I would have never even think about it.."
"I'm glad that we had it. Although I have to admit, that I'm quite surprised that Beryl didn't have it with me directly..She usually has no problems with being open and honest.."
"She doesn't..I was surprised too...For a moment, I even thought that she was trying to do some joke on me with his..But apparently not..So I should tell her that you are decided to have a full marriage?"
"Yes. I want to have a full union with her, in every possible level...And you can also tell her, that she has the bravest best friend in the world..Not many women would have the guts to speak about such things with her friend's fiancee..."
"Thank you for this compliment Mr Mason. I'm glad that we reached an agreement and I trust that what we said here, will never leave those walls."
"You can be sure of that Mrs Hughes."
When Elsie went back home, Charles was waiting for her impatiently, curious how the conversation went.
"Well, how was it Elsie? Did you manage to talk to him about that?"
"Surprisingly, I did and it went much easier and better, than I could have expected it.."
"Meaning? Does he want a full marriage with Mrs Patmore?"
"He most definitely does and he was very clear about that. What do you have to say about that Charlie?"
"The only thing that I can say, is that I highly recommend it to anyone my love.."-Charles smiled to the love of his life and took her in his arms, to kiss her, glad to have such a wonderful wife, who is not only the best wife in the world, but also a great negotiator.
That's all my dear friends. Another long chapter, but I'm quite happy with it and I hope you will be too...Elsie managed to have a difficult conversation and they certainly enjoyed their intimate, sweet moments together. Sorry for any mistakes. Stay safe and see you soon!
