"So we chose the same house?" asked Joseph with a smile.
"Yes, it seems so. Wow. I still can't believe it…" laughed Clarisse. "That's fantastic."
"Yes, you're right. And do you remember? I said leave it to fate.And it worked. So that's why was so clear that vision in my head… That'll be our new home."
"Knock on wood.We know nothing about this house. Maybe they don't want to sell it."
"But it's been empty for years… I checked it so many times." said Joseph.
"Right then. What'll be the first step?"
"I'll investigate a bit, and find the owner somehow. And then, we'll make them an offer they can't refuse." winked Joseph. "But now, let's have a look around."
"But it's not appropriate… Joseph! Wait!" said Clarisse, but he already stepped in.
"Look Clarisse, it's perfect…"
"Joseph. I don't think we…"
"Don't worry Honey. Just look at this terrace and this view." said Joseph and he opened the French windows. "You can see the sea."
"Oh, my God." cried Clarisse. "It's much more beautiful, than I thought… I want to live here. Oh Joseph, I desperately want to live here." said Clarisse while Joseph hugged her and they watched the magnificent view.
"Don't worry dear. I'll arrange it." winked Joseph.
"But nothing illegal…" said Clarisse.
"Of course not. But if I have no other choice…"
"Joseph!"
"Just kidding. Just kidding." laughed Joseph.
"I hope so. You promised me. Do you remember?"
"Of course. I remember everything, every promise, every kiss, every sweet moment with you." smiled Joseph and kissed her slowly with his heart full of love.
The world disappeared for a few minutes… Then a little later Joseph broke the kiss…
"Well, I think we successfully inaugurated our new home." smiled Joseph.
"That's what you call an inauguration? Let me tell you something. If you get this house, we're gonna inaugurate it properly." smiled Clarisse.
"Properly? What do you mean by that exactly?" Joseph teased her.
"I'll show you, just get the house." smiled Clarisse mischievously.
"Right. I'll do my best. And I hope you won't break your promise…"
"A queen never breaks a promise. All right an ex-queen…" smiled Clarisse.
"Not ex-queen, queen. You will always be my queen." said Joseph and kissed her softly.
OOOOOOOO
That promise did its part… So four days later Joseph gave Clarisse a little velvet box…
"Oh, Joseph. What is it?" asked Clarisse excitedly.
"Just open it."
"Right." smiled Clarisse and she slowly opened the box. Inside there was a key…"Is it what I'm thinking?"
"Yes, I settled everything, the house is ours. You just have to sign the papers here, and here." said Joseph as he took out the contract.
"You're fantastic." cried Clarisse as she put down the pen. "I'm so happy. We finally have an own home. When can we move in?"
"Immediately, if you want."
"Perfect. But how… How could you arrange it?" asked Clarisse.
"Well, we were in luck, 'cos the owner wanted to sell it for years, but has had no success. So the house just waited for us."
"It's like in fairy tales." sighed Clarisse happily. "I still can't believe it. So we can move in tomorrow?"
"Yes."
"Right. I'm gonna make a list and we're going shopping." smiled Clarisse.
"Shopping with you? Well, then I'll be prepared with enough cold meals for three days." teased her Joseph.
"Make that four days, just for safety." giggled Clarisse.
OOOOOOOOOOOO
The next few days went by fast with shopping and setting up house.
Now they were standing in the living room hand in hand…
"Well…" sighed Clarisse. "I think it's quite livable now. We just need a few more things, but tonight we can stay finally. Do you wanna stay?" asked Clarisse and turned to Joseph.
"Of course. But if we'll spend the night here, we have to celebrate."
"You're right. Open a bottle of champagne."
"As you wish my queen." smiled Joseph and he went to the kitchen.
A few moments later, he arrived back with two glasses and a bottle.
"Here you are." smiled Joseph and passed the glass to Clarisse.
"Thanks."
"Well, to our happy new life…" started Joseph as he held up the glass. "Sorry, to our happy and long life."
"Cheers." smiled Clarisse and drank a bit. "And now, I don't know if you remember or not, but I made a promise."
"Well, I think I can remember something… not clearly, but yes, maybe you said something. What was that exactly?" Joseph teased her as they put down the glasses.
"Would you be so kind to sit down Sir?" asked Clarisse and pointed at the sofa.
"Certainly Madam." smiled Joseph and sat down, then looked lovingly at his wife.
"Well, Congratulation Sir. You're the lucky winner tonight." smiled Clarisse and started to undo her dress. Joseph was speechless, he just stared at Clarisse with an opened mouth.
She slowly took off her dress, then her stockings. Slowly, very slowly, which whipped Joseph's desire up. Then she took off her bra… That was the limit for Joseph. He couldn't sit any longer on the sofa, he reached for Clarisse, and drew her down on top of him… And… they kept that promise very well.
Their first night in the beach house was hot and perfect. They were finally alone, so Clarisse could scream as loud as she wanted… And she didn't hold herself back, to Joseph's satisfaction…
OOOOOOOOO
The next few days spent in totally happiness, but Clarisse was a bit sick.
And that feeling was somehow familiar for her… So, when Joseph went to manage a few things in town, she did a few tests, and a little later, she knew that…
She was right…
"Oh, my God. I'm pregnant."
To be continued…
Author's Note: OK! Breath in, breath out. First of all, Clarisse is 58 in my story. And, yes I learnt biology at school, so I know that the limit is 52-53, but that will be some kind of miracle, right? And don't forget, it's a fiction…
