"When did you realize you cared for me?"

He'd answered this before, but still he indulged her and said, "When you first spoke about your mum," He kissed her gently.

She asked, "When did you realize that you were falling in love?"

"When you told me about how naughty you were stealing your father's Henleys," he said with a wicked smile and he kissed her long and deep.

Smiling Shelagh straightened the mussed up sheets. Her training demanded tightly pulled sheets and perfect corners. She pulled up the duvet. She was happy because tomorrow Timothy would be home from hospital.

This is dedicated to anyone who has teenagers or older children at home.

She quietly shut the door to Angela's room. Teddy was well fed and settled. She found Patrick downstairs and said, "They're sound asleep and Timothy will be at the movie house for at least another hour."

He smiled and said, "I'm coming Mrs. Turner. I don't need to be asked more than once."

Wasting no time, Shelagh quickly started slipping out of her dress and Patrick stopped her and said wickedly, "let me…"

Smiling Shelagh straightened the mussed up sheets. She pulled up the duvet and smoothed it fully aware they would be back in bed for the night soon.

Patrick didn't know that marriage could be this incredible. Shelagh moving on top of him with her face full of arousal as she sent him into his own glorious climax. Breathing heavy she collapsed onto him flattening her bare breasts against his chest. He was not a young man, but if she stayed like that much longer they would both be tired in the morning.

He remembered the feel of her weight on him as he watched her smile as she straightened the mussed up sheets. Her training demands tightly pulled sheets and perfect corners. She smoothed out the duvet.

Patrick woke with his wife in his arms and found it impossible to hide his desire. Slowly his hand found her breasts. Smiling he felt her move knowing she was awake. When she moved again her bottom pressed into his want for her. With urgency he flipped her onto her back. He was lost as he ravaged her mouth and tugged on nightdress.

This first week of marriage was more than he could've imagined as he watched her smile as she straightened the mussed up sheets. Her training demands tightly pulled sheets and perfect corners. She smoothed out the duvet.

Smiling Shelagh was tangled up in the mussed bed sheets. Patrick knew she liked to make a perfect bed with tight sheets and perfect corners. He however much prefered the sheets this way, wrapped around his naked wife as she looked at him with her adoring eyes. He would give anything to climb back in bed with her, but duty called.

The memory of her moving beneath him would have to keep him going though what was bound to be a long day. When he finally arrived home to his new wife, she was asleep the duvet pulled over her.

Shelagh lightly ran her fingers over the wrinkled sheets knowing that he had been sleeping there. It didn't bother her that Patrick had left his bed untidy. She knew he'd been called out in the wee hours of the morning.

Standing alone in his room she tingled with anxiety or was it excitement. In just one week, she would be sharing this bed with him. Smiling Shelagh straightened the mussed up sheets. Her training demanded tightly pulled sheets and perfect corners. She pulled up the duvet and smoothed it out. Soon Timothy would be home ready to start his schoolwork.

Smiling Shelagh straightened the mussed up sheets. Her training demanded tightly pulled sheets and perfect corners. She pulled the duvet and smoothed it out. Patrick came up behind her and wrapped his arms around her waist she could feel him through the thin fabric of her nightdress she purchased especially for her wedding night.

He whispered, "You don't need to do that Mrs. Turner because after some sustenance, I intend for you and I to mess up all of your hard work."

Turning around and putting her hands on his shoulders, she said, "Who needs sustenance."

"Not me, my love."

Tim and Angela had gone to visit Granny Parker for the night. Patrick came out of the shower to find Shelagh straightening the mussed up sheets without a stitch on. He watched in admiration of his beautiful wife as she pulled up the duvet and smoothed it out.

Finally when he couldn't stand in another moment, he said, "Do you have any idea what you're doing to me love?" She looked at his boxers and blushed. "If you don't go get in the shower now, I'm going to need another shower myself and you'll need to tidy this bed again."

Shelagh groaned, "Oh God, Patrick now!"

If he wasn't so overcome with desire, he'd laugh at his tiny wife's demand. Instead he honored her wish be entering her. He always felt as if they fit perfectly, just as her God had intended. She lifted her hips encouraging him. In response, he moved inside of her with increasing intensity. When he could hold it back no longer he exploded just as she was having a combustion of her own. He nuzzled the soft skin at the base of her neck and whispered, "You may love a tidy bed, but not me."
