Happily Ever After

(A/N: Read at your own risk…let's just say it's gonna get steamy!)

It has now been a year since Ethan and Theresa were married in front of their family and friends. Smiling as he watched the love of his life come out of their house with their luggage, Ethan waved at Pilar and the children at the doorstep.

"I feel so bad leaving them." Theresa says, as she waves to her children.

"Don't. It's just a few days. You and I need to have our honeymoon."

"We had a honeymoon, don't you remember?"

Moving close to her ear, Ethan whispers, "Everyday with you is a honeymoon. Is it such a sin to want to spend a child free weekend with you in a big bed, making love?"

Feeling warm all over, Theresa smiles at her husband. "Not at all."

"Good." Smiling at his wife, Ethan turns around and waves at his kids. "We love you! Mommy and daddy will be back before you know it!"

"Bye Mom, bye dad!" Little Ethan says, as he takes Jane's arm and waves it to their parents.

"Thank you, mama!" Theresa says to her mom.

"You're welcome, mi hija." Pilar says as she ushers the kids back into the house.

Pulling out of their driveway, Ethan takes Theresa's hand. "Are you ready for our honeymoon, Mrs. Winthrop?"

Laughing, Theresa shakes her head. "You are a trip, Ethan."

"Yes, but the best thing is that I'm free of charge."

"Only to me, I would hope!"

Pulling over to the side of the road, Ethan turns to Theresa. "You never have to doubt my love for you. I will never EVER cheat on you with another woman. I don't even need to go down that road when you're all I could ever want in a woman and more. And as soon as we get to our suite, I will show you just how much I love you."

Wiping the tears from her eyes, Theresa smiles. "You are my life, Ethan."
"And you're mine."

Hotel

Beginning to walk into the hotel room, Theresa is stopped by Ethan. "What is it?"

"Well, seeing that this is another honeymoon for us, I think it's only fair that this groom carries his beautiful bride over the threshold, don't you think?"

Smiling, Theresa cups Ethan's cheek. "If you insist."

Carrying Theresa into the room, Ethan shuts the door with his foot and puts her down.

"This is beautiful."

"Made for my queen."

"Thank you for all this, Ethan."

"You don't have to thank me. Just love me." He says as he holds Theresa close to him.

"I do. And now, I'm going to show you just how much."

Smiling, Ethan looks at his watch. "This early?"

"Hey, are you complaining?"

"Never! Proceed.."

"Good." With that, Theresa goes to lock the hotel door, and then comes back and looks into Ethan's eyes. "I could get lost in your eyes."

"As I could in yours."

Kissing his lips slowly, Theresa begins to unbutton Ethan's shirt. Thank you, God, for giving me back my love..

Thank you, God, for giving me Theresa…

Removing his shirt, Theresa watches the emotions of their love play across Ethan's features. "I love you." She whispers.

"And I love you." With that, Ethan slowly unties Theresa's dress from around her neck, and watches as her body is shown to him. "You have the most perfect body…you and I are the perfect fit…your body was made to mate with mine.."

"Ethan.."

"Shh. Don't talk." He says as he slowly kisses Theresa's neck, and moves further down her body. Stopping suddenly, Ethan stands back up.

"What, is something wrong?" Theresa asks.

"No. I just want to do this." With that, Ethan lifts Theresa into his arms, and carries her to bed.

"You're..you're still dressed.."

"Something that can easily be remedied." With that, Ethan places Theresa on the bed, and then stands next to her, and begins to take off his shirt.

Watching Ethan strip, Theresa licks her lips slowly in anticipation. "Don't do that, baby." Ethan says in a hoarse voice.

"Do what?" She asks, licking her lips again."

"That. You don't know how much control I'm hanging onto here." Ethan says, as the final remains of his clothes are discarded, and he is left standing next to the bed looking at his wife.

Looking down Ethan's hard body, Theresa sighs in pleasure as she sees his desire for her growing. Looking back into his eyes, Theresa wraps her hand around his hardness. "I always wanted you to loose your control around me."

Moving onto of his wife, Ethan feels her warm body rub against his and lets out a small moan. "You're killing me, baby."

Licking Ethan's ear, a sure sensitive spot for him, Theresa whispers. "I say we end the torture and make love…"

"You're wish is my command." He says in a hoarse whisper as he slowly moves inside Theresa's body.

Sighing in completion, Theresa arches back and feels every nerve ending explode with fire and passion. "Oh, Ethan…"

Speeding the pace a little, Ethan sighs as he feels his wife's legs wrap around him. "Theresa…I want you…"

"Take me, Ethan…take me to our special place…."

Taking a finger, Ethan slowly brings it down to where their bodies meet, and presses it against Theresa's sensitive spot.

"ETHAN!" Theresa screams, feeling her body convulse in pure ecstasy.

Watching his wife tumble to the throes of passion, Ethan quickly hurries the pace, and feels himself explode into his wife. "Theresa…oh Theresa…" He moans against her neck, feeling their sweat combine.

Coming back to Earth, Theresa takes Ethan's face into her own. "That was pure heaven."

"When I'm with you, it will always be heaven. I love you, Mrs. Winthrop."

"And I love you, Mr. Winthrop."

Cuddling next to each other, Theresa feels Ethan wrap his arm around her stomach, and she smiles as his voice vibrates into her ear.

"Think we made a baby?"

Clasping his hand to her stomach, Theresa thinks about that. It would be a good time in her cycle to conceive, and before answering, sends a prayer up that things worked.

"Yes, my love, I think we created a life."

Sure enough, nine months later, Ethan, Theresa, Little Ethan and Jane welcomed the newest addition to their family, a little boy named Caleb Samuel. As Ethan and Theresa gathered in the hospital room with their family, they stared lovingly into each other.

"Home is where my heart is with you, Theresa. Thank you for letting me back home."

"I love you, Ethan."

"And I love you, Theresa."
