Holly had put the blindfold on during the drive as asked by Robert. Robert was giddy, just ready to show the love of their life the home the both were crazy about. When he pulled up he got out of the car and went to the other side, helping her out and leading her to the door. "Alright I think now is a good time for you to take it off."
Holly removed her blindfold and realized exactly where she was standing. Her eyes filled with tears as memories came flooding back. "Oh Robert." Holly was choked up, she reached over and took Robert's hand.
"Let's go in." Robert pulled the key out with his free hand to unlock the door.
"Is this what you and Laura have been working on?" She asked him, wiping her eyes.
Robert nodded as he opened the door. "I told you you would love it. Wait until you see it all. I didn't get to check out our old room, you called as I was about to."
"A sign that you needed to wait." Holly smiled brightly at him as she walked inside. Remembering that first time they were there and when she said goodbye before going to Australia. She never knew how hard it would be to say goodbye to a home until that moment and now she was saying hello to it again. She was so happy. "Oh it's still so perfect!"
Robert closed the door and kissed her head. "You are perfect."
Holly looked up at him and gave him a kiss. "The communications room has changed." Holly walked over to it. It had been remodeled into a couple of bedrooms.
Robert nodded. "I guess not everyone needs to stay as connected as I was. It does look very nice." Robert looked at one of the guest rooms.
"A good place for Jayne or Ethan to stay if they come visit or we can set one up as a playroom for Seana when she comes to visit!" Holly was so excited, her face lit up as she thought of showing this place to their children and grandchildren. "For Noah too when Robin and Patrick visit!"
Robert was so happy he could make Holly this happy, he absolutely loved that he was the reason her face was lighting up like this. "We will have it loaded up with toys. They will have so much fun in there!"
Holly clapped and smiled. "Oh I can't wait!" Holly had such a gleam in her eyes as she hurried over to the stairs, walking up them. She went to her old room first and looked in. "Not too many changes here."
Robert had followed her, smiling at her comment. "It's a pretty special room."
Holly knew exactly what Robert was talking about. The first place they had given each other fully to each other. "Always will be." Holly gave him a quick kiss. "Speaking of special rooms do you want to do the honors?" Holly asked Robert.
Robert walked over and opened the door, already finding a bed in there and a bottle of champagne with a note.
"Take care of each other"
Kevin and Laura
Robert smiled as he held up the champagne. "Laura and Kevin gave us a housewarming gift." He sat it back down.
Holly placed her hand on her heart and smiled. "Oh that is so kind of them. I see they got us some towels too." Holly couldn't help but notice a few towels over to the side.
"Actually that one was me. I asked Laura if things went through if she can make sure these ended up here." Robert grinned while he went over to her, giving her a kiss. "How does a sauna sound?" He asked her while he held her close to him.
Holly had a twinkle in her eye, she loved hearing that. "That sounds absolutely fabulous!" Holly put her arms around his neck, giving him a long lingering kiss.
Robert returned it not wanting it to end. "Keep kissing me like that and we will never make it in there." He wiggled his brows.
Holly laughed. "I will do my best to behave."
The two got undressed and wrapped towels around themselves before going into the sauna, making sure to grab the bottle of champagne. "I still say we only needed one towel." Robert grinned at Holly.
"You would." Holly smiled and kissed him.
"So did you like your surprise?" Robert asked, keeping his arms around her.
"Like is an understatement, I love it. It was worth having to be patient." Holly kissed him as she held onto him.
"Mmhmm I knew it would be. I knew this would be. I mean sitting and talking on the couch is nice but this has always been one of my favorite daily activities." Robert placed a kiss on her head.
Holly looked up into his eyes. "I can think of another of your favorite activities." She grinned and placed a kiss on his neck.
"Mrs. Scorpio are you trying to seduce me?" Robert grinned while his hands found their way to the front of her towel.
Holly looked at him with a sparkle in her eyes. "Always."
