Ch 24

After they had dinner, Mark went to take a shower. Stacy cleaned up then her attention was drawn to the huge window overlooking the foutains at the Bellagio.

"Oh my," she smiled seeing the lights and fountains come alive. She was mesmerized by the show not hearing Mark come out of the bathroom. He toweled off his hair watching her. His feelings for her were undeniable. The more time they spent together the more he regretted not meeting her before Stephanie.

"I couldn't have saved myself alot of heartache. Also would have stopped Adam from using Stacy. I can't change the past but I can make it right for the future," he thought slipping into his bedroom pulling on a pair of shorts. He quietly moved behind Stacy wrapping his arms around her waist.

"You missed some of the show," she glanced back him for a moment.

"I'll catch it later," he rested his head against hers. She didn't say a word just relaxed leaning back against him caressing his arms. She loved the way he made her feel so relaxed and safe. He smiled holding her tighter not really caring about the show. She tilted her head looking up into his enchanting green eyes. Her breath caught in her throat feeling his fingers brush along cheek as he brushed his lips against hers kissing her lightly. She slightly trembled feeling her heart jump while her mind reminded Mark was still Stephanie's husband and she was still married to Adam. She pushed the thoughts away turning in his arms wrapping her arms around his neck kissing him back. She was falling for him and she was tired of denying it. Mark felt his heart pounding not believing finally he had kissed her. He had dreamed about it so many times finally he had let his heart win and it felt so right. They were both overwhelmed by the powerful feelings drawing them close and closer together.

"Still getting good feelings?" he whispered cupping her face.

"Feels like I'm dreaming, if I am please don't wake me up because this feels too good to be true," her cheeks turned a rosy red making him smile.

"Darling, this is real. I'm not going anywhere," he kissed her again letting his tongue linger with hers. "Is your offer for a massage still good?" he asked running his fingers through her long hair.

"Of course Mark," she felt her pulse quicken.

"Good, just remember our deal," he winked at her.

"I remember," she blushed even more taking his hand leading him into her bedroom. "Go ahead and stretch out on your stomach I'll be right back," she went back into the other room. He lay across the bed listening to the rustling from the other room. She returned dropping a bag on the bed then sat down next to him.

"What's in the bag?" he asked.

"You'll see soon enough just relax and close your eyes," she said brushing his damp hair off his shoulders.

"Close my eyes?" he gave her a curious look.

"Just do it silly. You can trust me," she smiled caressing his neck.

"Ok darling, I'm all yours do with me what you like," he winked at her making her laugh. He felt a cool liquid on his back then he felt it slowly start to get warmer. Stacy ran her fingers through the massage oil spreading it all over his neck and back. He took a deep breath relaxing with her every touch as she gave him a deep massage working away all his stress. His eyes slowly opened when he felt her move after massaging his back. He was going to sit up when he felt her lightly sit on his back straddling his waist.

"Am I hurting you?" she leaned down whispering in his ear.

"Not at all darling," he answered feeling his desire for her growing. She ran her fingers slowly along his neck massaging it loosening the muscles up. He happily sighed when she caressed his sides.

"Flip over handsome," her warm breath caressed his skin. She slowly rose letting him turn over before she straddled his lap. She blushed feeling how hard he was. He reached up grasping the back of her neck pulling her into a deep passionate kiss. Her body molded against his as desires they had been bottling up exploded setting them both on fire. Her skin came to life under his strong warm fingers as he caressed her back. She slightly trembled as new goose bumps rose on her skin. Mark broke the kiss looking into her eyes deciding to go with the moment and not worry about anything else just how much he cared for her and how much he wanted to be with her. Stacy caressed his face kissing him again. He cupped her rear holding her against him as he gently rolled her on her back.

"Stacy, are you sure about this? I care about you deeply. I want to be the one that makes you smile all the time for a long time to come, are you ready for that?," he broke the kiss staring into her eyes feeling her heart beating against his chest.

"Mark, I'm falling for you. I think I have been for a long time. I want to explore these feelings not hold them back anymore. We have been ignoring them long enough. I want to be with you," she whispered kissing him letting her heart rule wanting him to make love to her over and over. Mark felt the same wants and desires knowing in his heart he wasn't only falling he had fallen hard for her and he planned to make his future with her. They made love slowly through the night till they both fell asleep exhausted only dreaming of one another not caring what problems were about to come their way.
