Once Evelyn and Rick arrived at their wedding suite, and after he had carried her over the threshold, Evelyn went into the bathroom to change. Rick, on the other hand, simply removed his shoes, took off his jacket and tie, and unbuttoned the first few buttons of his shirt. Feeling more comfortable, he made his way over to one of the windows and looked out. He couldn't believe that they were married. He had in fact had always wanted to settle down, but had thought that it would never happen. He was too much of an adventurer, a rustic. But he had found someone. Someone so perfect for him that it scared him.

The sound of an opening door brought him out of his thoughts and Rick turned to see his new wife. Evelyn was standing in the doorway of the bathroom, wearing a white silk robe that was tied around her waist. Rick could do nothing but stare at her. He was at a loss for words at her beauty.

Evelyn made her way over to him, and took her place at his side. Rick stepped behind her and wrapped his arms around her. Evelyn in turn leaned against him, reveling in his warmth and strength. She gently rubbed her hands up and down his arms, neither of them rushing- they had all the time in the world.

After a few minutes of simply holding each other, both could feel the hunger rise up inside of them. A need to feel each other in the most intimate of ways.

Rick gently began a trail of kisses down Evelyn's neck. Confirming is fantasies at how sweet and soft her skin was. They both had been as proper they could be, until now. Evelyn turned to face her husband and leaned up into the most passionate kiss they had ever shared. When they finally pulled away, Evelyn was gasping for air. Rick on the other hand had finally noticed, probably because he was so lost in the kiss or he had not expected her to do it, that Evelyn had unbuttoned his shirt.

" Whoa," was all he could say.

" Whoa what?" Evelyn asked with a playful and innocent expression on her face. " I thought we would start getting you undressed seeing as how you will take longer."

" What do you mean I'll take longer" He questioned confused at her remark and pulled her closer to him in a both playful and passionate manner. But instead of feeling only the coolness of the silk, Rick felt something else as well. The heat of her body coming through the layer of fabric. Rick knew that if she was wearing a nightdress underneath the robe that not as much heat would be coming through, so that would mean….

" Whoa," he repeated again, this time in complete shock. He had thought that she would be nervous and shy. But here she was wearing only a thin layer of fabric over the body that he so desperately wanted. Evelyn grinned up at him, giving him a mischievous look. She leaned upward again, planting a soft kiss on his lips murmuring,

" I love you."

" I love you to," came the truthful reply.

Then they both were lost in kiss that went beyond any of the kisses that they had shared so far. Soon all clothes, and robe, were shed and they found their way to the bed. Their bodies moving together in a dance that only people truly in love could share. And when they became one, both felt so complete and so truly happy.

When their bodies could no longer move together from exhaustion, Rick pulled Evelyn into his arms and held her. Just before they fell asleep, as the first rays of the morning sun were peaking through the windows, Rick murmured into his brides ear,

" I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with you."
