I do not own Pepe or Penelope

Set in Le Pew Tails which is my story and this is going to be one romantic story. I figured we needed some Pepe/Penelope before the New Year since I've kept them far apart in Father and Daughter.

Happy New Year!!

Chapter Two

Roses

She kept on gazing at her finger. She couldn't help polishing her wedding ring. She had been married for only two days and she couldn't have felt happier.

She was tired though. She and Pepe had gone into stores getting her new clothes since she had only brought a few with her since she ran away from Orleans. She had finished folding her purchases away next to Pepe's clothes in the closet. She could hear the sound of dishes putting put away in the dishwasher as Pepe cleaned the kitchen after their late dinner.

Contently, she stood back and crossed her arms in confidence. She felt at home once again. Her sight and thought lingered out into space as she thought about the past she once had and now what she had. She had it better than before. She didn't even notice Pepe come into their bedroom. He swiped his damp hands against his jeans and eyed her coyly. Without a sound in his step he walked behind her and brought her into his grasp. His arms went around her chest, feeling the beautiful shape that hid under the fabric. Penelope tensed for a moment and relaxed again, knowing it was him.

"It's been a good day Pep," she said to him and reached one hand up to his neck affectionately.

"I couldn't agree more," said Pepe and he leaned towards her neck to kiss it. Penelope cringed in delight at the smooth touch of his lips against her neck. Pepe kissed her neck again and slowly exhaled, his warm breath causing Penelope to close her eyes dreamily.

Pepe buried his nose into her neck when something caught his attention: the scent of her neck. It smelled like…roses. Gorgeous and fresh roses.

The scent was captivating and new to him. So quickly Pepe began breathing fast, taking in the romantic flower's aroma. Penelope noticed her husband was not kissing her anymore and turned her head. Now she sniffed the back of her neck.

"What are you-" she started. Pepe let his arms free from holding her and his hands roamed up to her shoulders. Penelope moved away to the bed to face him.

"Pepe what are you doing?" she asked. Pepe did not respond and leaned to her other side that he hadn't experienced. His arms ran about her again. Penelope leaned back farther to ask him her question again, but she only ended up falling backwards onto the bed. She yelped in surprise. Pepe had not cared; he only stayed at her delicious neck, inhaling all he could take in one breath.

"Pepe what's wrong?" asked Penelope, who was smiling in pleasure. Pepe now inhaled the front side. "You're getting really friendly." Penelope felt a thrill of pure happiness run through her spine.

"You smell sooo good!" moaned Pepe. He rested his chin on his fists and his elbows gently on Penelope's shoulders.

"Oh, you like that scent?' she asked, smiling big. "It's a body wash of mine. I found a small bottle of it in my bag that I brought from Orleans this morning. I forgot I had it with me. Obviously, I used it today."

"Most beautiful aroma on zhe most beautiful woman," said Pepe, gazing into the eyes of his wife. Could he have asked for more?

Penelope gave a modest smile to him. She felt light in her heart from his love-struck compliment.

"I thank you for that romantic idea," she said. "I should wear it more often, shouldn't I?"

"Oh, yes my love," said Pepe and he placed a deep kiss on her lips which she returned as always.

"If that's the case I should get more," said Penelope. "I wouldn't want you to inhale any other terrific scents."

"Why would I when I have you?" asked Pepe. He smiled his charming smile at her. He removed his elbows from her shoulders and each on to the side. Penelope ran her hands around his neck and pulled him closer to her. She closed her eyes and felt the strong (and hideous to others) scent from his neck dance to her. How she loved it now!

"I'll have you know that you are the best that's happened to me so far in my life," she said.

"Really," said Pepe with beguile in his eyes.

"Really." said Penelope.

"Zhen you should I feel zhe same," whispered Pepe. He kissed her neck again. "You should have zhat rose smell as a perfume Pen. It would be even lovelier for you."

"Not for you?" said Penelope flirtatiously.

"For me and you," he said. One free hand lingered to her collar bone, tracing the outline.

Penelope twisted under him and kissed his neck.

"Go ahead and get back at me," said Pepe sweetly. "You deserve after what I deed to you."

"Why don't you just kiss me Handsome?" Penelope asked sweetly back.

With a dashing smile Pepe kissed her passionately. Penelope glanced at his hand that was close to her and she saw the gleam of his wedding ring. She loved being married to him.
