I awoke the next morning to hear the faint sounds of water hitting hard tile through the bathroom door. Jamie had already gotten up and started taking a shower. I smirked, reminiscing about the wonder and beauty last night was. It was everything I imagined, and more. the same knot in the depths of my stomach that faded as I drifted off to sleep returned as I thought about it. I brought my hand to my face and wiped across my forehead as tried to imagine what Jamie had felt, what she was feeling at this very moment. I leaned over and unzipped my suitcase, taking clean boxers in my grip, but I just rested my head on the edge of the bed for a moment in slight confusion and embarrassment sure, we were now married, and we were very in love. but Jamie had just lost her virginity.. her bittersweet virginity that no one else could imagine her ever losing. but it was now something I had in my ownership. In her words, a gift she had given me. I smirked again, sitting up and sliding the shorts up to my waist. I stood and stepped over to the veranda, sliding the door open. I stepped out, feeling the warm Caribbean sun on my face, barely noticing the squeak of the shower handle being turned off. I clasped my hands to the thin rail, and gazed out to the beautiful aqua sea and its white sand. I remembered the beauty and tenseness of last night, the airplane ride and our love talk.. our generally silent ride to this hotel. And how the last thing I saw outdoors before our unforgettable occasion, was the sparkling twilight seen above on this same balcony. While a half smile, still plastered on my face stayed as I listened to the ocean's roaring waves, I felt two smooth, slightly wetted arms slide around my waist. I smiled as she stepped to my side, that same loved perfection I had entered the night before. I smiled a little wider as I looked down to her, inhaling her strong, wonderful scent of honey that I could almost taste over the ocean's strong smell. it caused that knot of love in my stomach to return once again. "If it isn't my beauteous wife." I said, lovingly to her. she scoffed, a small smile on her face as she peered down to the tropical trees. "Oh, it is. With a quite a feeling I'm not used to at that." I pressed my arm to her waist as she looked up at me. "What about you?" she asked. I responded, "I've got a new feeling. I can't seem to.. get last night out of my mind. It's like I can't remember anything I saw.. but I still feel every other sense. the only thing I remember seeing is you. and those butterflies that you explained to me haven't left. this feeling is just.. " "Unexplainable." she interrupted, smirking. I nodded. "I know exactly how you feel, Landon. I feel that, and more." "What more do you feel?" I asked her. "I don't know.. I feel sort of embarrassed, I guess," she said. I knew she would, I'm not surprised. "I.. can't say exactly what for." "You don't have to." I told her. "I know what you mean. I feel it too.. but not as strong as you do, I guess. but, baby.. you have no reason to be. I've never been so amazed with anyone in my life, or by any other experience." "You have the most important gift I could ever give to another, Landon. It meant so much to me. But now, I'm so happy with giving it to you." I smiled at her. "I know I may be sick.. but I've never felt this healthy before." My smile barely faded, but I felt the knot release a little and a tear fill my eye. Of all the things to think of now, her health. But she felt healthy, so I was content. "Besides feeling a little sore." she continued. she blushed and we both laughed, and I sweetly kissed her lips once again before returning into our honeymoon suite.
