The Princess Groom
Ch.16: Heaven Beside You
Hot water cascaded down from the faucet. Two figures washed themselves. The two smiled at each other, blushing at how close they were.
Yes, indeed, the day had come. July 4th. For my family, there were certainly enjoying the celebration of freedom their country celebrated. For Charlie and I, we were preparing for the trip.
Before we could go came the "Cleansing shower" which was to wash away our sin before we went up. As the shower had occurred, me and Charlie had kissed a few times. There was tension. Boy! Being around her like this was intoxicating. As we went in to kiss, almost to our breaking points, we both stopped and looked at each other.
Our eyes communicated. We knew how we felt. What we desired. But the call Alastor had made had given us pause. We stopped and nodded.
A few minutes later, we exited the shower, nice and clean. I had exited first and took a deep breath.
It was time.
