Rick entered the bedroom to find the dress she was wearing, had been hung with care and Kate had slipped between the sheets. Kate was naked beneath them and he knew it, Kate patted the space beside her with her free arm asking Rick"Care to join me?"

In his soft deep voice Rick commented "I was hoping to undress you.. Kate" he said as he to slid between the sheets with his wife. Wanting to take her time, Kate started to nuzzle on Ricks neck as she slowly worked her way down his chest Rick went to wrap his arms around her only to have them swatted away as Kate wagged her finger back and fourth telling him "I'm in control here!"

In the end, all Rick could do was grab the sheets and hold on as Kate lightly bit, nibbled, and kissed her way round his chest. Maniging to Swing her leg round so she was straddling him once more, this time unencumbered by her dress Kate lowered herself onto his lap letting out a combination of a shiver and a gutteral moan. Ricks hand moved to Kate hips this time she didn't stop him. Kate slowly started rocking her hips back and forth she could feel him moving his hips in synchronous rhythm with hers she could feel her body start to shiver


Two hour later it was fifteen minutes to midnight Italy time Kate had never once not wished there daughter Annmarie Happy New Year, and Rick knew that. "Kate" he said, "Wake up... It's almost midnight" Kate's eyes shoot open as she "blurted out "Annmarie..., I forgot"
