THE SURPRISE PARTY

JULIES POV

"Adam!"

"Happy Birthday Jules."

I just stood there staring at him for a few seconds. This is the man I have been dreaming about for years and here he is standing in front of me. I didn't know what to say to him. I was thinking about it when I felt his arms wrap around me. It took me a minute to realize he was hugging me. I hugged him back and then it was over. I wanted to hug him again, but I didn't want to be this desperate thing that wanted to be attached to him.

"So, Can I come in, or should I just get on a plane and go all the way back to Boston."

It was then that I realized that he had a suitcase with him. He must have come right from the airport. Ok Julie, get yourself together. This is just Banksie. No one special, yeah right. I really wish I had decided not to drink tonight.

"I'm sorry, come on in." I smiled

He grabbed his suitcase and walked inside. He set it down on the doorstep, and smiled at me. I felt like I was going to melt. I felt like he was staring at me.

"I'm sorry I missed the main party. I got here as soon as I could."

"That's right, you had a game. How did you make it here, Fulton said your game was at eight."

"I forgot about the time difference. I left right after my game, which was about eleven Boston time, and got into California about eleven your time. There's a three hour time difference."

"So, Can I ask you what you're so nervous about? You're playing with your ring. If I remember correctly you only do that when you're really nervous." I looked up at him like a dear caught in the headlights and he smiled. "Is it me? Do I make you nervous?" He was staring at me again. He has been here less than five minutes and he has already turned me into a pile of mush.

"Why would you make me nervous, Banksie?"

He leaned forward and whispered in my ear. "Probably for the same reason you've always made me nervous."

I looked at him quizzically, and he went to his bag, grabbed what appeared to be a gift and took my hand. "Come on, let's go open your present." He led me over to the couch and sat next to me.

He handed me the gift, and added one of his million dollar smiles in with it.

"So Miss Julie, tell me about yourself."

For the next hour or so I gushed about myself and my accomplishments. Adam was so easy to talk to. We talked about school, and he laughed at some of the crazy college stories I had. We both talked about our failed love lives. He went on to tell me about his own short lived pre-NHL college experience, and he told me all about The Bruins and his hockey life.

"Well, are you going to open your present?"

"Of course," I opened the gift and inside was a beautiful sapphire necklace in the shape of a heart.

I looked stunned.

"Are sapphires still your favorite? I know it's not that expensive, but I saw it and it just seemed like something you would really like. I can return it, if you don't like it."

"Adam, don't be silly, it's beautiful. How did you remember that sapphires are my favorite? Most people don't know that little tidbit of information about me."

"I remember everything you tell me. Here, let me put it on for you." I lifted my hair and he put it on for me. I turned around and he was so close to me, our faces were almost touching.

Our faces stayed close as he leaned in and kissed me. At first it was gentle, but passionate. Then it got needy and desperate. Before we knew what was happening, our clothes were coming off and my back was up against a wall. I had been having dreams about this man for years and now he was in my living room, and I was about to have him. I whispered "bedroom" in his ear, and he lifted me up like a sack over his shoulder and carried me upstairs. We both started laughing hysterically at him carrying me up the stairs. I believe at one point I had mentioned to him that I could walk and he told me this would be more fun.

We got upstairs and he threw me down on the bed in a semi-gentle manner, and we started at it again. About an hour or so later, I was cuddled up in the man of my dreams arms feeling completely satisfied for the first time in a long time.

As I lay here, with Adam asleep soundly next to me I start to wonder about the future. My life is starting a new chapter, and I'm a little scared, but at the same time excited. I'm twenty one years old. I've just graduated from college, and the man of my dreams has finally been caught. I just can't help but wonder for how long. I do know that if he feels half the love that I feel for him than we can definitely make it work. I smile at that thought, and snuggle up to Adam as he puts his arm around me.
