"Is that all your stuff?" I asked Imogen as she was moving some boxes into the condo. After all, her parents did kick her out. She needed a place to stay, and I was more than happy to let her move in with me. It was a match made in heaven, seriously, I didn't mind at all. We were already starting our life together anyway, this just sort of kick started things.
"I think so." She said as she rubbed the back of her neck. "Listen, Fiona..." She started. "Thank you so much for letting me stay here. I-"
"I don't want to hear it!" I yelled playfully. "You're my girlfriend, I love you, we are adults, it's okay if we live together." I reassured her. "I know you're sad because of your parents, but they'll have to come around eventually. Just give them time. I'm sure everything will work out in the end."
"I know. I feel bad though... I feel like a big mooch." She pouted.
I smiled at her. "Want to make it up to me?" I asked playfully as we began moving stuff back to my bedroom. She would be sharing a room with me. Imogen then sat down a box by the closet.
"Well yeah." She answered and I grabbed her hand.
"All you have to do is cook me dinner tonight." I told her with a smug smile. "That's all I want."
"Fiona..." Immy whined and I shushed her by kissing her lips. She kissed back feverishly and I pulled away.
"I don't want to hear it." I said. "Now will you do it or not?"
"Okay..."
"I love you." I told her. Gosh, I never got tired of saying it. It just came so naturally, and the best part of it was that it was true. I loved Immy with all my heart and soul, and I knew that she felt exactly the same way.
"I love you too, Fions." She replied back with a smile, and we continued moving her stuff in. Once we were finished, we headed to the kitchen so she could start dinner. I was going to watch her, because I thought she looked adorable in her little chef apron. After she was finished cooking, we sat down for a lovely dinner. I had no idea that Immy could cook as well as she did. But it was amazing. "What do you think?" She asked as she forked a bite of spaghetti into her mouth.
"It's really good." I praised as I took another bite.
Imogen smiled at me. "I'm glad you like it." She replied. It was silent between us as we continued to eat. I looked up at Imogen and she was staring at me with a slight blush. She looked like she was about to say something, but stopped.
"Something wrong?" I asked her with concern.
She shook her head. "Not really. I've just had something on my mind." She confessed. "It's stupid..."
"What is it?" I asked her, because now she was honestly curious.
"Nothing..." She muttered.
"Immy, come on!" I encouraged, and squeezed her hand for support.
"I was wondering..." She began.
"Yeah?"
"If we could take our relationship to the next step..." Imogen asked and her blushed darkened immediately. If she was talking about what I thought she was talking about, I was at a loss for words. I had no idea that she even wanted to do that kind of stuff with me. But I was glad that she did, because then we could show each other how much we loved each other.
"You mean... Like... Sex...?" I asked with a shy smile.
Imogen laughed, "Yeah. But only if you want to." She answered and I nodded.
"Are you ready?" I asked her. I wanted to make sure that she was before we did anything major that she would regret. I was honestly shocked though. I didn't take her for that kind of person to want to do that. Honestly, I had been thinking about it a lot, but I wanted Imogen to make the first move before I did something stupid and made her uncomfortable.
"Fiona, I love you. I've been ready for a long time, and we've been together two years... I think it would be okay if we took the next step..." Imogen assured me and she was completely correct. And I was all in, if she was all in. I felt like we loved each other enough, that we could finally take this step. I mean yeah, I've thought about it before, but not that much.
"Okay." I answered with a nod. I then began to eat again, but Immy was still looking at me.
"Could we... Tonight?" She asked with a smile. "I just really want to be with you." I thought that was the sweetest thing in the world.
"Of course." I answered. "If you're ready."
"I am."
After dinner, Imogen and I were together for the first time in a sexual way. Yeah, it was something new, but I enjoyed every single second of it, and I'm sure she did too. It was awkward, and messy, and we couldn't control our giggles. But it was full of love and passion, and that's when I could really tell that Imogen wanted to be with me forever. I could feel it, radiating throughout her body. Then when we were done, we held each other, and said nothing. It was the greatest day of my life, and I wouldn't change it for the world.
"Immy?" I asked after a while.
"Yeah?"
"You know I love you, right?" I asked.
"Of course. I love you too." She replied.
"Immy?" I asked again.
"Yeah?"
"Will you marry me?"
"Yeah..." She answered, and my heart melted to goo.
"Really?" I asked.
"I already told you yes Fions." She replied. "I love you so much, I want to be with you forever."
