Robert chuckled and shook his head before he winced. “No. I have a confession to make as well.” I looked at him. “I asked you to dinner tonight to make things official. I want you to move in with me for now and I had plans for later. I had a key in a box but it’s in the car somewhere.”
“You were going to give me a key?” I asked as he smiled.
“Yeah, I was. I will as soon as I can if you say yes.” He stared into my eyes as I leaned forward to press as kiss to his lips.
“Yes.” His face was bruised and he looked awful, but he was mine, all mine.
I came back to the present as Noel walked down the aisle on Keith’s arm. She looked like an angel and I wiped the tear from my eye, trying to save the professional makeup job I’d sat through earlier. This day was so perfect and I smiled down at the grass as I took a deep breath. Nate took her arm after he shook Keith’s hand, standing before the minister as they said their written vows. It was a short ceremony but sweet and heartfelt and I think every woman was dabbing their eyes at the end.
The minister announced them and Nate held up her arm as he led her down the aisle to the cheers of the crowd. They kept the kiss innocent but I knew that they were around the corner making out like high school students. I was with Noel when she bought the best kiss proof lipstick that money could buy. I smiled as Robert held out his hand, taking it as we walked past the crowd.
Living together was amazing. I loved the idea that I didn’t have to leave apart from working; that we could make dinner every night and mess the sheets up before we fell asleep. We still had dinner with Keith and Marta a lot and even went to Nate and Noel’s as often as we could. I still worked with her but since we were best friends, I couldn’t get enough time with her. I loved her and Nate together now that they’d worked through the harder parts.
Rob got along with everyone and he and Keith were getting to be good friends. They got together for games at the house and even at the corner bar sometimes when Marta and I were doing girl things. Nate joined them when we brought Noel along and it was like an extended family. I loved it. My parents came out more and more and Dad started talking about moving to Mountain Home next year. They might be here by the holidays.
One year later
I came home from the bakery on a Friday with a bag full of muffins for the weekend. Rob still loved them though he liked all the flavors now. I knew that he was planning on cooking something for dinner since it was so beautiful outside and I looked forward to relaxing. I pulled into the garage and parked, shutting off the engine of my car with a smile. It ran great and I loved getting around on my own. I slipped out of the driver’s seat and headed into the house through the breezeway, calling out Rob’s name.
The house was only lit with a few lights and I looked around for him. The patio was even darker, lit with candles placed around the table. “What?” I asked as I set the bag down and walked outside. Rob had a screened in patio that we ate dinner in a lot and it was gorgeous tonight. There were vases of light colored roses placed on the tables and it smelled beautiful, something like vanilla in addition to the fragrance of the flowers. “Rob?” I called out as I looked around.
He didn’t answer and I walked to the door to look into the backyard. He was by the barbeque making something and I licked my lips at the sight of him. He was more gorgeous every time I looked at him and I just stared for a few minutes.
He must have felt my gaze because he turned towards me and grinned. “Hey, baby.”
“Are you trying to burn down the house in here?” I teased him as he shrugged and pulled something from the grill.
“I thought we’d have a romantic dinner tonight. It’s the weekend and you have it off, for a change.” He approached me with a big plate of meat and vegetables, leaning over to brush his lips against mine briefly.
We finally had a weekend off. The girls were great at the cafe and since Noel baked for the next couple of days, we decided to relax. There were no real plans yet but I could just stay in bed with Rob all weekend and be completely content. I watched as he went into the house to plate the food and carry it out to the patio. I grabbed a bottle of wine from the fridge and opened it, pouring two glasses. I joined him and took another look at the room as I placed the glasses on the table.
Rob pulled my seat out for me, kissing me when I approached him. There was something different in this kiss, something more urgent and it took my breath away. I was just melting into him when he pulled away, his eyes dark and hungry. “Let’s eat.”
I licked my lips that were still tingling and nodded, taking my seat. The sun was starting to set and we could see it well from where we were, so I sat down and looked at my plate. He’d fixed some salmon and grilled broccoli, along with a fresh salad. “This looks so good.”
“I want to get some practice in for the summer. With your folks moving here and mine visiting, we’ll be doing a lot of entertaining.” He smiled and I gazed at him. I picked up my fork and broke off a piece of the fish, moaning as I tasted it. “Good?”
“Amazing,” I replied as I grinned. “You can be my personal chef anytime, handsome.”
“I’d like to be more than that,” he said as I blinked at him, still chewing the fish.
“What do you mean?” I asked as I stared at him.
Rob cleared his throat and stood up slowly, moving to drop down before me. He stared into my eyes as he reached out to take my hands. “Molly, I have gone through my entire life at the speed of light. I was only focused on work and getting ahead to reach the end, and I never let anyone inside. I never thought that moving here would change all of that, but the morning I walked into the cafe and saw you…everything changed. I think I fell in love that day but I was so unsure. I didn’t think we’d make it or that I was good enough for you.” I sucked in my breath as he stayed there. Understanding was setting in and I felt my heart begin to pound. “Will you give me the rest of your life so I can love you? Will you marry me?”
“Rob,” I whispered as tears slid down my cheeks. “Yes, I want to marry you so badly. I love you so much.” He stood up and pulled me into his arms tightly, holding me as I cried happily.
“I was going to wait until after dinner and take you outside when the sun was just going down over the horizon, but I couldn’t wait.” I laughed and looked at him as he pressed a kiss to my lips. He reached into the pocket of his slacks and revealed a beautiful ring with a delicate stone in the center and tiny diamonds on the band, taking my left-hand to slip it on.
“It’s so pretty,” I said, appreciating the candlelight as the ring shimmered in the warm glow. “Thank you.”
“Let’s eat because we’re going to Marta’s for dessert. Just a random thing,” he joked as I laughed and wrapped my arms around him.
“Everyone knew but me?” I guessed as he nodded and kissed me softly.
We stayed there for a long time and ate cold food, but it didn’t matter. I was going to marry him and live my life with Rob, the man of my dreams.
The End
Deleted Scene 1: The forest
I walked through the forest with Rob in the morning, not up for a run. I’d heard so much about what he called beautiful backyard and wanted to see it for myself, since I had the morning off. It really was gorgeous and I looked over the meadow with a hundred types of wildflowers as he walked ahead of me, looking around.
Rob turned and came back to me, pulling me into his arms for a deep kiss as I moaned. The sun was warm as it beat down on us and my skin responded to him easily, my thighs aching with need as his tongue swept against mine. “C’mere,” he said as he walked backwards, kissing me again. I laughed and followed him through the trees to a soft blanket that was spread out on the ground and I realized why he dashed out of the house earlier, claiming that he was getting something out of the car. Rob walked right to the center of it and dropped down on his back, pulling me over him. I wore a skirt today since it was already so warm, and the hard ridge of his jeans brushed against my cli
t as I bit my lips.
“Are we alone out here?” I asked as he nodded.
“I’ve never seen anybody out here on any of my runs.” He reached up and pulled my head down to kiss me firmly, his hand sliding into my hair. “I’ve always thought of us out here, in nature doing what the animals do.”
“Oh, my God. You’re terrible,” I said before he kissed me again, claiming my mouth this time. His tongue slipped between my lips and I pressed against him and forgot all about where we were.
Rob kissed me senseless and I felt him roll me onto my back, so he was between my legs and kissing my neck. I spread my thighs open, feeling the breeze on my legs as the skirt rose. Rob drew my skin between his teeth as I cried out, thrusting my body up against him. I wanted him and I didn’t care where we were.
Rob unbuttoned my shirt and tugged the cup to my bra down, sucking a nipple into his mouth before he slid a hand between my legs. He moved aside the material to my underwear and stroked my clit as I fought the urge to scream. “Rob,” I moaned as he slid a finger inside of me and curled it, still teasing my swollen nub. He knew that this would make me come and I dropped my head back.
Birds chirped around us and I blinked as he dragged his finger against my sensitive spot. Oh, fuck. I was already so close to the edge and as he pressed my clit I shook with my release. Rob eased his finger out of me and told me to get on my knees, and I reached up for him to help me.
Once I was positioned and ready for him, Rob smacked my ass making me jerk forward. I cried out, losing all my inhibitions as he pressed his cock into me and gripped my hips. “I am going to fuck you now, Molly.”
And fuck me he did, with hard strokes of his thick cock. Rob slammed into me as I pressed back, needing all of him. I tried to be quiet and keep in mind where we were but moans escaped my throat as I felt my body tightening around him. Rob pulled me up, finding my hard nipple as he caressed it, still going so deep inside of me.
I screamed as I came and he jerked one more time before filling me, my name a whisper on his lips. We both tumbled down to the blanket, breathing heavily and recovering as he pulled me against him. “You are the hottest woman I’ve ever seen, Molly. I love the way you give yourself to me anywhere I want you.”
“You make it hard to say no,” I said huskily, still feeling the aftershocks in my body. I looked up through the tall trees and smiled at the sun and the feeling of being in his arms.
This was a totally new experience for me; being outside like this. I would have never considered it before but there was something so organic about being out here with Robert. I knew that I was safe with him and a part of me never wanted to end this with him.
Deleted Scene 2: Restrained
The night that Robert moved into his new house, he insisted that I stay that night with him. I didn’t want to be anywhere else, despite the busy day. He had plenty of help with family and friends from the base and it went smoothly, but there’s always that element of sheer exhaustion once the sun goes down.
Robert grabbed some water and led me to the bedroom; a gorgeous, sprawling room that offered a beautiful view of the forest behind his house. It was similar to the one behind his rental, but this was his house. I hoped that someday it might be ours though I’d never say that.
He pulled me into his arms, kissing me hungrily as I pressed myself closer to him. Our lips crashed together in the dim light of the room from a single lamp, our tongues pressing together as I let out a low moan. “I want to do something tonight, baby,” Robert murmured to me as I blinked and looked at him. “Take your clothes off and get on my bed.”
I stepped away from him and removed my leggings and oversized t-shirt, tossing the bra and underwear in the pile. I glanced back and moved to the bed, set against the back wall and across from the fireplace. Robert watched me intently as he stripped off his own clothes, taking my breath away as he always did. He walked over to the closet and grabbed a few things from it before coming over to me and moving beside me. Robert lifted my right arm, securing it to the iron with little wiggle room and then proceeded to do the same with the left arm. It wasn’t like I hadn’t been tied up before now but there was something different about this. There was an electricity in the air; an intensity.
Robert returned to the end of the bed and proceeded to spread my legs and tie my legs to either corner.
This was new.
Robert looked over his handiwork and crawled between my legs, dragging something with him. I watched silently as he moved his mouth between my legs and licked slow and hard. I dropped my head back and cried out as he teased the sensitive bud that was always ready for him.
Robert teased me, alternating between licks and sucking me deep into his mouth. Oh, God. I jerked when I heard something vibrating and looked down to see him rubbing something blue against me. It was hitting my clit and I felt the response everywhere in my body as I came. “What is that?”
“I did a little shopping for us. Did you know how many kinds of sex toys there are to stimulate your clit?” He asked as I breathed in deeply.
“Never…thought…about…it,” I managed as he slid something inside of me, also vibrating and big. Robert did just fine doing that on his own. There was something to be said about the way he fucked me with whatever he had though, along with the way that it stroked everything inside of me as the speed increased. I let out a long cry as he pushed it in and out, waiting for me to beg for more. He loved having this little bit of control and I closed my eyes and rocked my hips against his hand. “Fuck me, Rob.”
He did so in earnest, pumping it in and out of me as I moved with him as best I could with the restraints. I was just ready to come again when I felt his body move against mine as he entered me. “Molly, you feel so good,” he told me as he lifted my exhausted legs to his shoulders. “I love watching you come apart for me. Robert was hard and pulsing as he fucked me and I let go as my pussy gripped him, selfishly holding him inside of me. He jerked one more time, filling me as we both moaned.
Robert dropped beside me, his arm splayed across my stomach as we both breathed in. That was one hell of a welcome to his new, permanent house in Mountain Home. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath, smelling our sex in the air as I smiled weakly. “I hope you made a lot of purchases, Rob. I like the way you took me so hard and fast. I think it turned you on as much as it did me.”
“You turn me on. It’s the way you respond to me and how wet your pussy gets. It’s how much you just give in and stop fighting it that way you wanted to in the beginning.” I had been like that, so shy and uncertain. Now I was an utter nympho and fine with it.
Deleted Scene 3: It’s going to be forever
We walked into the house after a boisterous and emotional celebration at Keith and Marta’s. I was so sore from laughing and crying and felt Robert pull me against him. “You’re going to be my wife, Molly. I’ve never fucking wanted that before you. I’ve never wanted forever the way that I do with you.” He stroked the ring on my finger gently as I smiled as I wrapped my arm over his.
We shut down the house and walked up the wide stairs to the bedroom where I kissed him. I pulled him against me and searched his mouth with my tongue, needing all my fiancé.
My fiancé. I was going to marry Rob. My dream was coming true and I felt his arms slide around me as he pushed me slowly back towards the bed.
We landed on it together, my legs wrapped around his body as he pressed into me and kissed me deeply. I loved the celebration with family about this event; the hugs and the emotion. But right now, I needed Rob in a different way. I needed him inside of me now and we moved apart to strip in an unspoken agreement.
I pushed him down on the bed and he stared at me as I crawled over him. I leaned down to take his rigid cock into my mouth, sucking lightly as he groaned and slid a hand into my hair. I loved the taste of him, sweaty and salty at the tip where he was leaking out. My man was sexy, masculine and her made me wet as I continued to draw him into my mouth.
“I love you. You’re everything to me,” I murmured as I felt my body grip him and breathed out, gripping the pillows above his head. “I’m going to come, Rob.” It moved slowly at first and then like a freight train, taking me over as I came hard, the feeling pulsing through my body.
He took a moment but rocked up inside of me as his heat joined mine, violent in its release as he cried my name. “I knew that I loved you when we met, Molly. I knew it when I kissed you the first time and felt your body wrapped around mine. You were a game changer from the start.”
“I did, too. I’ve never felt the way I did with you the moment our eyes locked,” I whispered as I felt the pulsing aftershocks through my body. “I’m so glad that you moved here.”
“I am, too. We’re going to settle here, baby. This town, this house. We’re going to have babies here and watch them grow up the best way possible.” I smiled at the idea of being pregnant with his babies and watching them grow up.
Marta said the same thing tonight at our small party. With Nate and Noel getting married soon, she was over the moon about having grand babies. I knew that with her and Keith here as well as my parents, it would be a help. I could have it all.
I felt him roll me to my back as the head of his erection pressed against me. Robert chuckled as he slid inside of me and filled me again, still slick with our come. He fucked me hard and slow; his lips on my ear, my jaw and then my lips. I cried out as he took me without abandon and gripped his back, my claws digging into him.
