Part 31
Cutting the shower off, Stormy stepped out and wrapped the towel around herself before heading out to the bedroom. She hadn’t heard AJ return from playing golf so she thought she was alone. She went about the room getting ready, completely unaware that AJ was watching her.
He had heard the water cut off as he closed the door behind him and as he stood in the living room of their suite, he saw her come out of the bathroom with just a towel around her. By the way she was moving, he knew she thought she was alone so he stood quietly in the door leaning against the frame watching her moving gracefully around the room. She was so beautiful, a beauty that radiated from deep inside, and he ached to hold her.
As she reached to take the towel off, he spoke, “You aren’t alone, baby.”
Stormy turned to him. “How long have you been here?”
“I came in as you were getting out of the shower,” he answered as he moved to her and put his hands on her waist pulling her to him.
“How was the golf game?” she asked running her hands along his chest.
“It was good. Your dad is a riot. How was the shopping?”
“Okay. Not as much fun as the last couple of shopping trips though,” cooed Stormy.
“I bet. Get anything for me?”
“Maybe. I bought a cute dress that I think you’ll like and a beautiful teddie that I know you’ll like.”
“When do I get to see them?”
Standing on her toes to kiss him, she said, “How about tonight? I thought I’d wear the dress to dinner and then when we come back here, I can model the teddie for you.”
“I can’t wait but you know, I really like this towel.” AJ let his hand wander up to her shoulder where with his finger, he traced a line to her neck. “You are so soft,” leaning in, he kissed the trail his finger had taken, “and you taste so sweet.”
“I bet you’d like it better if this towel were off,” she purred as she dropped the towel to the floor.
Surprised by her actions, AJ couldn’t say a word but he definitely reacted to the beauty that stood before him.
Running her hands along his arms, she whispered, “What’s the matter, Alex? Don’t you like what you see?”
To answer her, he cradled her face in his hands and he began to kiss her, quick tastes lingering just long enough on her lips to make her think he was going to take it farther. Carefully, he guided her to the bed as he continued to bestow kisses and his hands roamed along her naked body. He lay her down and partially covered her body with his.
With his hand on her hip, he whispered, “I DEFINITELY like what I see.”
“Make love to me, Alex,” she requested as she tugged at his shirt.
What more could he possibly want? His girlfriend was laying under him, naked by HER doings, and asking him to make love to her but he heard himself saying, “Not now, baby.”
A pout replaced her seductive smile, “But…”
“Just like dinner…a small appetizer before the main course,” answered AJ as he stood up to undress.
For the first time since they’d been together, AJ stood before her completely undressed and oh god, did she like what she saw! The feelings she had seeing him…his tattoos standing out on his arms, his abdominal muscles tight from working out, his entire lean frame obviously desiring to be with her….were completely new to her but definitely pleasurable. She felt her temperature rising as he rejoined her, his skin making contact with hers. He ran his fingers lightly across her stomach as his lips moved in to claim hers in a slow, luxurious kiss. His tongue touched every erogenous spot in her mouth and lured her tongue into his mouth where he sucked hungrily. His hands began to wander her body, caressing her skin lovingly. Leaving her lips, his traveled down her neck tasting her.
“Alex,” she breathed.
“Hmmm.”
“Why?”
AJ moved up to look into her eyes. “Just enjoy. I promise you, NOTHING is going to mess tonight up.”
“Then why not make love to me now?”
Brushing her hair back, he kissed her tenderly. “Because I want to take my time and learn every beautiful inch of your sexy body. I want to create the most beautiful memories that you can hold here,” and he placed his hand over her heart. “I want our first time to be as beautiful as the day you marry me, the day you give birth to each of our children, as beautiful as our fiftieth anniversary…a memory that you hold on to forever.”
AJ’s tenderness, the depth of sincerity and the abundant love reached into her heart and took it into his possession. She’s never known love before, between a man and a woman, but she knew without a doubt that this was it. Tears rolled down into her hair as she touched his cheek with her finger tracing the line of his beard.
“I can’t imagine it being anything less than beautiful,” she whispered. “You are a gift from heaven.”
AJ blushed. “No one other than my mom and grandmother has ever felt that way before.”
“I don’t know why. Your eyes show so much goodness,” said Stormy as she brushed her fingers over his cheeks. “From the very first day you put me at ease and I trusted you.”
“You stole my heart with a single look and I prayed for a sign that you trusted me. The way you looked at me when we were in the emergency room, you gave me your trust. I prayed for a sign that you could love me and you said my name, told me that you loved me.”
“And I’ll keep on telling you,” she whispered as she moved her hands to his chest. Kissing him lightly, “And showing you.”
The time for words was past. Now was the time to show her exactly how beautiful she was to him. He stated at the top placing feathery kisses all over her face. Slowly, he worked his way down her neck nipping gently at the skin before kissing away the pain. His fingers danced across her skin touching her as if she were delicate crystal.
Her fingers tangled in his hair as she closed her eyes focusing on the sheer pleasure. His hands were like magic wands casting a spell over her and she knew this was definitely worth waiting for.
“Alex!”
“What is it, beautiful?” he breathed against her skin.
“This feels so good.”
“I promise, it gets better,” and he grasped her nipple between his teeth flicking his tongue across the coral nub. With his fingers, he took the other nipple pinching and twirling it to a hard point.
A knock at the door interrupted Alex’s loving and he fell onto the pillows letting out a groan of frustration. “Someone doesn’t want us to be doing this?”
Stormy laughed, “It’s probably my sister. She was already in town with her boyfriend and Mama called her to tell her we were here.”
“I guess you had better get it while I go get a shower.”
“Alex?”
“Yeah, baby.”
“I promise, nothing will interrupt us tonight.”
Alex smiled, gave her a kiss, and said, “And I promise to make tonight as special as you are to me.”
Stormy sighed contentedly as she watched AJ go to the bathroom to get his shower. Her sister’s insistent knock brought her back to reality and she grabbed her robe to go answer it.
