Chapter 7 – The Morning After
Sunday had finally arrived and Charlotte and Caitlin were set to embark on their two week honeymoon. Charlotte Beaumont was the happiest woman in the world, now, as she thought, some of her ghosts had been laid to rest. To her, after the longest relationship she had had, Caitlin was the one she wanted to spend the rest of her life with. Which was all well and good as she had married the woman in front of all her friends and Caitlin's family. The two weeks that they had been apart were the worst Charlotte had had to bear, and she was going to make damn sure that Caitlin was with her every step of the way.
"Hey, sweetheart, ready to go to those places we talked about?" asked Caitlin
"You bet, but at least you left two destinations still to explore! Or have you something else up your sleeve that you haven't told me about?" replied an excited Charlotte. "Anyone would think this is just a schoolgirl fling, but believe me Caitlin, this is the most important time of my life and you are going to make me so happy for the rest of it. Can I ask you a question?"
"Sure thing honey, fire away" replied Caitlin
"What you said about getting more than just sand in my hair – is that a promise?" asked Charlotte with a glint in her eye.
"Charlotte, you know me better than to make idle threats! I'm going to pay you back for last night. You made me so, so wet and you wouldn't let me come until you told me to! I had to come from the attention you were giving me and I couldn't control what was leaving my body. You, on the other hand, had no excuse, except that you wanted to combine your juices with mine!" responded Caitlin in a very suggestive manor.
"I know, honey, I couldn't help it. I had to have you there and then and there was no way I was going to let you enjoy it on your own! I'm sorry about the three fingers, but by god, you were ready and waiting." replied Charlotte, who was beginning to tremble with the memory of last night.
"Baby, I told you straight after our lovemaking, that the only hurt, and it wasn't really a hurt, was immediate and once that had worn off I was yours forever. You did make me rather moist to put it mildly! Char, please believe me that last night didn't hurt in comparison to you leaving me for those two weeks. Don't you ever do that to me again. I couldn't bear to be parted from you for anything more than one day" came back Caitlin's response.
"You have my word, darling. We are now legally married and you are the only thing that matters to me. Caitlin, honey, for the last four years you have been all I've wanted but I thought the age difference would be a factor. You are ten years younger than me, but I know that you are the person I want to spend the rest of my life with. When I left you for those two weeks it was the worst time of my life. I wanted to come to the apartment every night and I wanted to hold you in my arms. I wanted to make love to you, and I wanted to feel you inside me. I didn't do these things because I wasn't sure how "the younger woman" would respond. I know this is stupid but that's how I felt and Caitlin, sweetheart, I'm sorry for all the hurt I've put you through. Let's get on that plane to Paris and enjoy the only real time that we are going to get alone. I married you because you do something to me, and I don't mean sex, that nobody, not even Vincent, could do for me. I also love you from the bottom of my heart and I want you to know that I will love you to my dying day. So, I have decided that on a personal level, I will be known as Charlotte Beaumont Rainey and when we come back home, I am applying to have my passport changed." responded a now, very emotional Charlotte.
"Oh, sweetheart, you are the most beautiful person in the world and whatever you choose to be called, I know that you are mine and mine alone. What more could I ask for than to have the woman you are beside me when I go to bed and when I wake up. I don't need you to change your name to make me happy. I am happy and these next two weeks are going to be so precious because it will be just the two of us. There will be no one dropping in or interrupting us, which is more to the point. We are going to enjoy ourselves for the next while and think only of us, no one else. We will have time to worry about the mundane things in life when we come back home." said Caitlin.
"Yeh, you're right. Come on, we had better get packed and head to the airport. We wouldn't want to miss that flight" replied Charlotte.
"Ok, so when we get to the airport, our honeymoon starts. Lets have a few drinks in the bar and by the way, I have something else to tell you." came Caitlin's response.
"What is it?" a rather worried Charlotte asked.
"We are flying first class!" was all Caitlin said.
"Oh my god, how could you afford that. I'm sorry. It's none of my business. You are the most wonderful wife any woman could dream of. Come here darling." said Charlotte.
Caitlin moved towards her lover and was immediately pulled in close for an extremely passionate kiss.
"I hope that plane gets to Paris fairly pronto because all I want to do know is fling you onto that bed and make passionate love to you." said Caitlin.
"Well, you will have to hold that thought but, my darling, once we hit that hotel room, there will be no stopping me!" replied Charlotte.
With that, the two packed the remaining clothes and headed to reception to settle the bill and make that onward journey to the airport.
