In their marriage, there were fights that the two would have, but never speak about again; this was one of them. Though Lilly was just plainly being stubborn, John was certainly used to it. As he stretched out on the bed, after being subjected to being at this party; until his eyes caught his wife undressing. He wanted to reach out and caress her white creamy skin.

Due to their fight, Lilly got into bed but slept with her back facing him. John sighed, fighting the temptations of wanting to caress, kiss, and be intimate with the woman he loved so much. When his wife was angry, she sure knew how to hold a grudge. With anger still in the air, John got up deciding to sleep downstairs.

While lying on the daybed, he somehow managed to remain awake. Like clockwork, his thinking was correct when he then spotted Lilly standing at the bedside.

"Couldn't sleep", he asked, seeing how her eyelids wanted to close but somehow couldn't.

Lilly let out a yawn, before feeling his hands at her hips, " Your such a damn well good liar John", realizing that he had so cleverly faked being shy when they had first met. His smile was a signature sign of the pain truth.

"You were too stubborn to realize", came his response. She then leaned in closer, "You were fantasizing about being with me all along", seeing how the lust in his eyes.

"Guys got to have something to fantasize about, beside work", he added while his hands played along the hem lines of her pajama pants. Without another word, John pulled her down in one motion; tasting every portion of Lilly's lips before letting his tongue dances around the insides.

Then in another motion, John flipped Lilly onto her back as he slowly began saturating her lips with his. A lustful moan slipped out from her mouth; as he leaned back looking directly into her eyes, " I still have more experience", quipping that comment.

John then proceeded to explore more of her body, while more noises came out of her mouth.

"I'm still better at it than you", her eyes now looking devilish with love. Those words were the last comments she could speak of, as their bodies rocked harder together. Each of their heartbeats grew stronger and faster by the moments; while every caress, nip and kiss of skin; made their connection a powerful one.

At last the waves had blown out like a tide, while their eyes continued to lock into each other's.

"Now why didn't I experience this whole side of you until now"?

John laughed softly, "There's a lot that you still don't know about me Lil", while still eying her naked body, "Always liked when you left a button open on your shirt".

"You're dirty old man", she admitted jokingly. He also chuckled as well, "I didn't stop me from loving you, did it"?

"No", before leaning over and devouring his lips again, this time making John breathe out even harder. Just about everything about his wife turned him on; even when the two heated up another round of passion. When it was all over, Lilly lay in his arms motionless.

A few weeks later, the two were already barking up a creek while John was trying to put up the lights. He already had half of the line without any working ones; but Lilly then snatched it out. While bantering back and forth, their daughter crawled up touching her father's leg.

It was amazing how at one moment, John would be furious but at the next turn into a loving father. She couldn't understand the reasons; but knew that her husband was full of secrets as well. One evening things started to get steamed up right before everyone had arrived.

With her fingers locked in the loops of his jeans, John found himself being pinned up against a kitchen counter. His cologne practically drove her nuts; but as he slowly nipped at her neck; tasting the scent of Lilly herself; John's heart almost literally jumped out of his chest.

The sound of Amelia's babbling suddenly broke their concentration on each other, as she crawled her way over to her mother. Upon picking her up into her arms, Lilly glanced over at her husband before heading several knocks at their front door. By the time that the whole squad had shown up, While Kat was bantering with both Scotty and Vera, as Lilly turned looking right up at John.

"And who was the one whom invited them", she questioned.

He shook his head, "We better get out there, before Kat kills both Scotty and Nick at the same time", taking a six pack of beer out into the living areas. Though the gathering was small and full of stories; Vera still wasn't letting it go about his tie getting cut off, in fact he kept on going on and on about it.

"Isn't it time you had yourself a girlfriend Nick", before Lilly then cut in", isn't about time you've learned to use a coaster John", sliding a coaster underneath his bottle of beer.

Scotty chuckled in amusement, "Getting a bit anal Lil", but as usual Kat also butted her two cents into it, "I can understand her reasoning, it's not like you even attempt to keep the house clean. Do not", pointing a finger directly at him, "Lie to me Scotty".

He shook his head, "I don't lie".

"Yeah right", groaned Kat as she sat there waiting for Lilly to come back downstairs. In the meantime, Jefferies seemed amused by all these comments, "Sounds like the ball and chain are working out for you John".

"Lil can be a pain the ass", before feeling her pinching him.

Her eyes looking directly at her, "So can you, mind If I elaborate some more"?

"Please", grin Scotty.

Lilly shot her partner a look, as John then pulled her down, " You getting back into work mode again"?

At the same time both of their eyes peered into each other's, knowing that they were indeed meant for each other in so many ways. When the party finally had ended; the two were left with just each other. On the night of Christmas Eve, Lilly's head was resting on John's chest, as they watched the lights illuminating from the tree in the dark.

Except for the usual noise outside, John heard nothing except the soft breathings coming from his wife. She also heard nothing, except counting the beats of his heart. Lilly knew that sound was the probably the most comforting thing in the world, to hear.

"How about we start trying for another baby; around March or April", tracing circles on his chest. John released a breath, "We didn't exactly try last time".

"You kind of just scrambled my eggs instead", her voice now whispering something into his ear. It caused him to moan softly, as John's dirty mind began to roll on inside of his mind, like a wheel turning.

Lilly watched seeing how romantic her husband could get, "You picturing some wild fantasies about me"?

"No", his lips brushing softly against her bottom lip. A soft moan flowed out, as his warm moist lips touched upon hers. As their kiss grew deeper and demanding, but somehow that's all it went. Even as another year came and went on by, the two somehow didn't add another baby, but when they started to try, they would find it wasn't that between work and home; both Lilly and John knew they had to relax while trying for to conceive one.
