Chapter 6

After having finally arrived in the Bahamas, they drove from the airport to the hotel where they would be staying. As soon as they had parked,

they walked in and went over to the desk to check in.

"May I help you?" the woman asked.

"Yes, I called about a reservation here a couple months ago" Andrew said.

"Name please?"

"Andrew Paxton"

She looked for a couple minutes. "Ah yes, here it is. A reservation for 2 in the honeymoon suite for 3 weeks. Does that sound right?"

"That's it."

"Well, here are the keys to your room. Congratulations, and enjoy your stay here!"

"Thanks, I know we will"

"Here's your key, "

"Mrs. Paxton. Mrs. Andrew Paxton. I just love how that sounds."

:"You're not the only one." Andrew said, as he started gently kissing her neck.

"Please Andrew, not now. Not while their are other people around" Margaret said, referring to some of the other

guests in the lobby. Then, rather quietly "We will later tonight. Besides, I have a big surprise for you"

"Well, I guess I can wait. It's not going to be easy, though"

"I know, but believe me, it will definately be worth the wait." she said, as they exchanged a small kiss.

Now, let's get up to the room and unpack. After all, we are going to be here for a while"

They took the elevator up to the second floor, and walked down the hall until they found the room they were looking for.

"Here it is--room 235" Andrew said. "Would you like me to open it, or would you like to?"

"I've got an even better idea" Margaret said. "I'll unlock it, and then we can open it together. You know, like the way we cut the

cake at the reception"

"You're right, that is a much, much better idea." Having said that, he let her unlock the door, and then he put his left hand on hers,

which was leaning against the door, and then his right hand against hers, which was holding on the handle.

"I'm ready--let's do this" Margaret said.

"Anything for you, babe" And together they opened the door and walked inside--ready to experience just one of the many wonderful

times that they would, no doubt, go through together, side-by-side, forever--as husband and wife.
