“Your garden,” she said lamely.
“Come one, Rachel, you can do better than that. Please don’t tell me you don’t feel the same way I do.”
“I don’t know. Because I don’t truly know how you feel.”
“Take a wild guess.”
“I can’t James, I feel stupid.”
“I love you, Rachel.”
She looked at him, her eyes brimming with emotion. “James, you don’t have to say things like that to me.”
“Yes. I do Rachel. It’s time we stopped hiding behind our professional commitments and got on with our life together. Once I have handed the house over to Emily I will have more free time, and I want to spend it with you. Do you feel the same way?”
“I don’t know, James. I am not ready to walk away from my business, please don’t make me choose.”
“Is that what you think I will do? There is no way I would, I know what it means to you, and look at how well things went today. You want to make something you are proud of, and I want to support you, not get in your way. I simply need to know you feel the same way too.”
“I do. I love you James. I can’t think of a life without you any more. But I’m not ready to be a housewife yet.”
He laughed. “Good, because I’m not asking you to be. However I am asking you to be my wife.” He reached into his jacket pocket and pulled out a small box. Rachel’s heart was beating so loudly she was sure he must be able to hear it, or even see it through her dress. Yet he carried on, opening the box and showing her the diamond ring it contained.
“Oh, it’s so beautiful.”
“Will you wear it? Will you be my wife? I will be more than willing to settle for a long engagement. Take all the time you need, I just want the world to know you are mine.”
“James,” she whispered. “Are you sure?”
“I love you, so yes, I am sure.”
“Then yes, I will marry you.”
He let out a long trembling sigh, and then leaned over and kissed her, his hand cupping her cheek and turning her towards him. His tongue found hers and the way he moved reminded her of the rhythm of their lovemaking, and she wanted to experience him fully, right now.
“Take me to bed,” she said, and he obeyed, getting out of the car and coming around to help her out. On unsteady legs she walked to the front door, he let them in and shut the door, they immediately set upon each other, a trail of clothes left in their wake as they went up to his bedroom.
Rachel was dressed only in her underwear when they reached his bed. James slipped her bra off, his mouth instantly claiming her nipples in the way she liked. She arched her body and pressed herself forward, her hands lost in his hair.
A whimper escaped her lips, but it did nothing to deter him, he wanted to claim every part of her body, to touch her and lick every inch of her skin. She joined him in this exploration, stroking his back, and over his arms, kissing his chest and nipples.
When he could stand it no longer he pushed her gently down onto the bed, raising her legs to enable him to remove her panties. When they were no longer a barrier to his fingers he pushed deep inside of her, plunging them in and out. This was not the gentle love making they had spent the first couple of weeks of their relationship enjoying. This was filled with a hunger and need to satisfy, quickly.
He stripped off the rest of his clothes, and then spread her thighs wide to make room for his muscular body. There was no resistance, she wanted him inside her. His fingers found her slick and willing so he rubbed his cock along her slit to lubricate it before pushing straight into her.
She gasped at the fullness, her sex gripping him tightly, not able to stretch quickly enough for his wide girth. James moved in and out of her, and all discomfort left her, to be replaced by an urgent need to come.
He moved his body, angling it slightly to one side, and his fingers found her clit, brushing it until she cried out in release. James thrust into her hard and fast, not yet reaching his own climax. His movement made her orgasm last for so long she could not tell if it was one or multiple times she came.
With one surging thrust he penetrated her fully, and lay there, impaling her on his cock while he cried out, his voice an agonising noise of release. He kissed her and told her he loved her, before collapsing by her side, utterly spent.
The day had been long and emotionally exhausting, and before he could say more, he was asleep. Rachel would have joined him, but she had to keep looking at the ring on her finger to make sure it was real and she had not dreamed it all.
***
When they woke the next morning James looked at the clock to check the time. It was eight, not too late, but Rachel knew he wanted to get over to the house and check everything over one more time. Not that he needed to, he had obsessively gone over everything twice already.
However, she wanted him to be happy, and so got up to get dressed. Yet when she tried to slip out of bed, he pulled her back.
“Where do you think you’re going?” he asked.
He wrapped his arms around her and kissed her on the lips. She did not need him to persuade her to accept his kisses and return them with her own. Lazily he lay on his back, and pulled her to straddle him. Sex in the morning, one of her favourite ways to wake up.
She lifted herself up onto her knees and he pushed his finger inside her, massaging her sex until she was wet. In return, Rachel grasped his cock and brought it to life with her hands. Sliding up and down, her palm rubbing its head until the first of his pre come appeared.
“If you don’t sit on me soon I am going to come all over your hands,” he said.
She did not mind, but she much preferred him coming inside her, especially now she was on the pill and there was no barrier between them. Rising up higher she positioned herself over his cock, and then slowly lowered herself down, circling her hips to gain maximum friction.
He filled her completely, this position making him go so deep she thought she would be split in two. Closing her eyes, she lost herself to her own rhythm. His hands reached up and massaged her breasts, paying particular attention to her hard nipples. All these sensation joining as one to make her orgasm hover just out of reach.
She rocked her hips, lifting herself up before sliding down onto him. As though possessed she moved, her mind focusing on how each movement made her feel, and using the information to near the wave of pleasure she wanted to drown in.
Then she came, his finger once more working their magic and touching her clit as though it were a magic button. Her hips bucked, and when he came, he thrust up to meet her with every stroke. Throwing her head back she cried out like a woman lost, frantically pumping her body up and down on his magnificent cock.
All she could think of was that this man was going to be her husband, and he could do this to her every morning for the rest of their lives and she would never grow tired of it.
When they had both finished, he pushed her off playfully and slapped her bottom. “Come on, you go shower first and I’ll get us some breakfast. Then once I’ve showered we can get going.”
After the quickest shower ever she went down to eat breakfast with him. He shovelled his down as quick as he could and then headed for the bathroom. Within the hour, they were in his car and on their way.

“I’m still not sure why we're meeting you here,” Emily, said sounding a little exasperated when she arrived with her parents.
In her defence, she did not look like she had spent much time sleeping on her wedding night. Neither did the groom, he looked still half asleep.
“James has a surprise for you,” said their mom.
“There’s no need James, you’ve done enough for us,” said Emily’s husband, Stan.
“I know, but I want you two to be happy, and not have to worry about where you are going to live.” He turned and looked at the house.
“Have you rented it for us?” Emily said excitedly, looking at the freshly painted door with delight.
�
��No.”
“Oh, so I still don’t understand.”
Rachel stood holding her breath while James said the words he had been waiting and planning on saying to his sister for months.
“It’s yours. I bought it for you.”
“Excuse me?”
“I bought it at auction, it needed some work, but now it’s ready for you to move into.”
“James. We can’t possibly accept it.”
“Why not? I can afford it, and anyway if I hadn't bought it for you I would have never met my future wife.”
Everyone stopped looking at the house and stared at Rachel and James instead. He moved around to put his arm around Rachel’s waist, and stop her from running away, because that was what she wanted to do. Her dread was that they would not think she was suitable, a stupid thing when they all seemed to like her. But still, a girlfriend is a whole lot different to a wife.
“So you were holding out on us. I knew it,” Emily squealed before launching herself at the pair of them.
“Rachel had no idea. But it seemed like the right time, and I wanted to make sure she knew how I felt about her.”
“Wow. We're going to be sisters.” Emily hugged her again.
“I know, and you'll be living right across the road from my shop.”
“I can pop in and see you every day.” She looked so happy. “Now, can we go inside, I want to have a good look around before we go on our honeymoon?”
Rachel followed them in, thinking how lucky she was to have a fiancée like James, and to be adding another sister to her family. Her thoughts turned to her own wedding, whenever that might be, and the nightmare it would be planning it when all her sisters, and her mom would want to get involved.
For a moment, she wished she was not going to be the first one to get married out of her sisters, but then James turned and smiled at her and she did not care what she had to go through to marry him. He was worth it, all of it.
