| The wedding was set to take place 3 months later and as the day dawned Sue was a nervous wreck. Everything had been planned to the finest detail, Brian sparing no expense or attention to detail to give Sue the wedding she dreamed of. Plans had been made for their church wedding in the Florida Keys, followed by a reception on a luxury cruiser that would sail the waters of southern Florida from early afternoon into the early evening until Brian took them on their secret honeymoon location, one he wouldn't even tell Sue the destination of. As the day drew closer, the thought of their honeymoon had Sue's stomach churning with desire. She had chosen her wedding dress with the time on the cruiser in mind, choosing a beautiful design hand beaded bodice on white satin, with a skirt not full, but flaring out in comfort. Her fingertip length veil with a beaded headpiece would be discarded once they boarded the cruiser. It was exactly what she had dreamt of. Everything was going perfectly. She was sure something would have to go wrong. They spent the night before the wedding in The Key West area both of them staying in different hotels in keeping with the tradition of not seeing each other till the wedding. They spent till the very last minute together and again talked to each other on the morning of the wedding on the phone. "How are you Baby?" Brian asked into the phone. Sue smiled to herself. "Brian, I am feeling wonderful. Excited, nervous, happy. I wish I could see you though." "Soon." He said softly, almost seductively in her ear making her shiver with delight. "I wish it was 4 o'clock." "Four?" Sue asked him, but she thought she knew why. "Yes, four, because then you would already be my wife. I want that more than anything." Sue sighed. "Me too. Why is it when you want time to hurry on by, it seems to stand still?" "Because it is something you really want." Sue heard some noise in the background at Brian's end. "Baby, I have to go. The guys have arrived and starting to pay me out already. They want me to shoot some hoops with them." "Okay Brian. I love you." "I love you too Sue, see you soon. I can hardly wait." Getting ready for the wedding Sue was in a haze of happiness. She had a warm bubble bath in the oversized tub in the hotel room. Her hair was styled in wispy curls around her face letting the rest of the lightly curled hair flow down her back held back with her headpiece. Make up complete she stepped into her wedding dress. Excitement and a tiny measure of fear rushed through her on seeing herself in her wedding dress in the mirror. Not fear at the thought of marrying Brian only the usually wedding jitters. Marrying Brian she knew was the most important thing in the world to her. When she saw Brian standing at the end of the aisle as she stood waiting to walk to his side, the fear was overtaken by an overwhelming feeling of love. He looked so beautiful in her eyes, her heart was pounding with the love she felt. No other words could describe the feeling. He was everything she wanted and more. As Brian had stood waiting for Sue, his heart was pounding too. He knew this was the right step they were taking, unable to imagine a life without Sue by his side till they were both old. As she stepped into the church, he was overcome with so much more than love. Their life since their meeting flashed through his mind, all the good times and all the bad. The good far outweighed the bad and from this moment forward, he would cherish every moment. The ceremony was everything Sue could have wished for and when the minister said Brian could kiss his bride, the twinkle in his eye warned Sue of the kiss to come. It was every bit as passionate as they had shared before. "I love you Mrs Littrell," Brian whispered in her ear before stepping back again. Sue's eyes never left his, mouthing the words I love you too back at him. Their eyes shone with the love they shared. The minister announced them husband and wife and they walked down the aisle to the well wishes of everyone in attendance. Photos were taken outside the church before Brian and Sue and the wedding party moved to a nearby secluded beach for a series of photos. They both relaxed there and laughed at some of the many antics they all got up to. Along with the photos of the two of them gazing lovingly into each other's eyes, there would also be a host of them goofing around. Get Brian and Nick together and that usually happened. Kevin was so at ease with everything, his own wedding with Jac only 3 weeks away. Jac had been one of Sue's attendants and she was fooling around with the rest of them. Once photos were taken they joined guests already aboard a chartered luxury cruiser decorated brilliantly for the wedding. Everything exuded elegance and grace aiding in Sue feeling like a princess beside her prince charming. It was all perfect. The speeches made, the dinner served and finally the dancing and through it all Sue was acutely aware of Brian at her side making sure she got everything she desired. What she desired most was Brian, but she knew that would come later. Dancing in Nick's arms after their bridal waltz she sighed, watching Brian dance with his mother, smiling at her happily. "You're the best thing to every happen to Brian, despite all the turmoil the two of you faced together," Nick told her. He was so special to them both, always there when they needed him. "He's the best thing to ever happen to me too Nick. I promise to look after him." "I know you will Sue and he will look after you." He smiled down at her. She wasn't used to being in someone's arms who was so tall. "Oh look here he comes now to steal you away again." Sue looked straight over at Brian and captured his eyes. He took her in his arms and kissed her gently on the cheek. He sighed as he held her, breathing in her unique scent, his body instantly reacting. "I have something to show you," he said quietly into her ear. He steered her to the front of the boat. They were close to the shore now, the lights of the mainland closer, twinkling brightly. "You happy?" Brian asked Sue, turning her in his arms. They were alone at last, if only for a little while. "Oh yes Brian. Happier than I have ever been." "And every day will get better." He leaned down and kissed her lightly. "See that boat over there," he said pointing to the shoreline when he moved back. "Where?" Sue asked looking in the direction he pointed at, seeing a few small boats lined up along the boat jetty. "The little white one with the blue lightning bolts down the side." The sky was dark but she could still make out the boat Brian was talking about in the light of the dock. "Yeah, what about it?" "That boat is taking us to our honeymoon," he told her watching her face as he spoke. Surprise followed by wonder appeared on her face a huge smile emerging. "We're going on that boat? Where to?" "It's a secret. One for only you and I to know." He leaned down and whispered in her ear. "I found a special island getaway where we will be the only two people there." She shivered as his breath caressed her ear and smiled at the thought of only the two of them, no interruptions. Even when they were alone at home there always seemed to be something or someone that needed their attention, now they would be truly alone together. "You like that idea?" She smiled up at him. "I love that idea. When do we go?" "As soon as we get changed out of these and we dock. You look beautiful by the way, have I told you that today?" Sue chuckled. "Only about twenty times." She leaned up and kissed him again. "I know I have said this many times today too, but I love you so much." The cruiser began to slow and Brian took Sue's hand in his and guided her towards the room their clothes were in, helping her out of her wedding dress, wishing he could show her exactly how much he loved her right now. Once dressed in casual clothes they reappeared going back to join their friends. Kevin made an announcement that Brian and Sue were leaving. They said goodbye to their friends who would stay on the cruiser partying until they docked back where they began, and finally they were walking arm in arm in the direction of the small boat, waving to their friends as they walked. Inside the boat everyone else left their minds and after settling down with a blanket around their shoulders to ward off the chill of the night breeze as the boat sped to it's destination, Brian held Sue in his arms his lips beginning to nuzzle behind her ear. They forgot the boat driver as Brian began to drive Sue crazy with his kisses anf touches. She moaned as he teased her with kisses wishing his lips were on hers, not all over her face and neck. She felt him smile. She took his face in her hands and looked him in the eyes. "It's not nice to tease Brian," she said licking her lips making him groan aloud now. She lifted her lips to his and sighed when he touched them softly with his. Half an hour later they felt the boat's motor slow and looked up. "Now I can show you exactly how much I love you," Brian said looking at Sue's puffy lips from the kisses they shared. Her eyes closed as her body warmed at the thought. He dropped a final kiss on her lips before holding her close as the boat docked. They couldn't see a lot in the darkness but there was a light on the dock and it looked like a trail of candle light along the beach, perhaps guiding the way to the house nestled in the palm trees at the edge of the beach. What they could see, Sue knew this would be an idealic honeymoon getaway. Just being alone with Brian made it idealic. Once ashore the boat left after reminding them he would be back in two weeks time. Two weeks, Sue thought to herself, they had two whole weeks alone together. Brian took her hand not saying a word. They followed the candlelight path to the house turning to look back at the beach as they got there. "It's beautiful Brian, thank you for this." He turned and opened the door, turning back to lift Sue in his arms. "What are you doing," she laughed at him. "Carrying you over the threshold. I wasn't allowed to see you last night because of tradition, you think I am going to forget this one?" He stepped through the door and lowered his lips to hers in yet another demanding kiss, letting her body slide down his as he lowered her to the ground. He groaned as she slid along his length. He moved back and looked at her his hooded eyes raking over her. "Brian? What's wrong?" "Wrong? Nothing is wrong. This has been the most wonderful day in my life I don't want to rush. I just want this to be special. Take our time and explore each other. We've got a whole lifetime of exploration ahead of us. Tonight is just the beginning of our lives. Everything is going to be perfect." Sue moaned as he spoke thinking of their future. She knew in her heart everything would be perfect now. After everything they had been through, she was sure they had passed life's tests. All they could concentrate on now was their life together and the family they would have. But right now all that mattered was the two of them and sharing the love they felt for the other. Brian took Sue's hand and led her into the dining room where there was a table laid with an array of beautiful finger foods. Sue looked at Brian, a twinkle in her eye at the thought of feeding Brian some of these foods and the mess they could get in. She hoped there would be a big bath the two of them could share once they had eaten. Maybe even a hot tub. She wasn't really hungry for food, but the thought of how sexy it would be to feed Brian some of these things made her want to eat. Marinated chicken was the first thing she spied and she picked one piece up, guiding it to Brian's mouth. Brian caught on to her thinking and grinned mischievously reaching for a kebab loaded with chicken and vegetables as he took a bite of the chicken, the juice from the chicken dripping down his chin. Sue declined the kebab he was offering her and reached up to lick at the juice on Brian's chin, delighting in hearing the growl of desire deep in his throat. He swallowed the chicken and lowered his mouth to hers. He didn't hold back and kissed her longingly. Sue could feel his desire as he kissed her, knowing hers was equal to his. She moved back reluctantly wanting to continue their seductive meal. She lifted his fingers holding the kebab and took a bite, letting her lips slide along his fingers as she did, the tip of her tongue touching the tips of his fingers. "You are a demon tonight," Brian groaned out, putting the kebab on the table. He lifted his fingers to her lips and let her lick the marinating juices from his fingers. "How about something sweet?" he asked her seductively. She nodded as she looked at the desserts on the table beside them. "Strawberries and chocolate are one of my favourites," Sue said as he reached for one of the chocolate covered strawberries. He dipped it in the bowl of cream and brought it to her lips. Sue smiled at him as she opened her mouth, watching the look on his face. His eyes shone with desire, she knew he wouldn't last much longer and in truth, neither would she. He moaned again, closing his eyes as she took a bite of the strawberry. She had planned on plucking a grape to pop in his mouth when she had finished the strawberry, but Brian never gave her a chance crashing his lips down on hers, their tongues tangling almost instantly. She knew right then that there would be no more food tonight and that was fine with her. She was hungry only for Brian now. Without breaking their kiss Brian steered Sue in another direction. They couldn't get enough of one another. "Oh God I want you so much," he moaned when they stopped. They looked around seeing they were in a bedroom, probably the main bedroom. It didn't matter where they were right now though. "Love me Brian," Sue said to him, her voice coming out in a whisper. "I do Baby. More than anything." He lowered his head for a kiss while his fingers fumbled with the zipper on the back of her dress. Once lowered, he pushed the material off her shoulders and dropped the dress to the floor. Sue's fingers were also busy removing Brian's shirt before moving onto his pants. Their nearly nude bodies were pressed together, their hands exploring while they continued to kiss. They moved to the edge of the bed, climbing in to sit in the middle. Brian looked at Sue his eyes a deep blue with desire. He reached up to unfasten her bra and lowered it, tossing it aside. The last scraps of remaining underwear were discarded and he pulled her into his arms. "You have made me the happiest man alive today," he whispered into her ear. Sue raised her hand to cup his newly shaved cheek. She had commented on that to him earlier and he promised to grow the beard back again. By the time they went back home it would be there. She stroked her fingers over the smooth skin. "Brian, words can't express how happy I am feeling. It's deep down in here," she said guiding his fingers to her heart, "and it overwhelms me so much. Our life together means so much to me. I want to make it perfect." "It will be perfect so long as we are together. Our love for each other is so strong." There was no more need for words. Brian lay Sue gently back on the bed lying down beside her. He moved in to kiss her gently. His whole attitude seemed to suddenly change and the urgency he had shown was replaced by a slow and sultry touch. He touched his finger to her cheek and traced it over her skin, cherishing every inch of her. She caught his finger in her mouth and gently sucked on the tip and his eyes darkened. His lips then replaced his finger trailing over her face gently and Sue's body hummed with anticipation. His sudden loving gentleness was beautiful but she wanted him to make love to her so badly. She pulled his face around to align his lips with hers and captured them with hers not letting him go. As soon as she knew she had his lips occupied with hers again, she pulled on his shoulders, urging him to make love to her like she so desperately needed now. Brian was being driven crazy by Sue's need for him. The sexy little sounds she was making nearly drove him over the edge of sanity. He couldn't wait any longer and poised himself over her, his lips still kissing her wildly. He broke the kiss to look at her, pure bliss all over her face. He loved her so much it hurt. "Sue, open your eyes," he urged her. Her eyes opened, a dazed expression in them. He moaned at the desire clearly shining in them and could hold back no longer, sliding slowly into her waiting warmth. As they began to move together slowly, gently, in perfect harmony, the day they had shared came rushing back to him. The whole wedding, seeing Sue walk towards him in her glorious wedding dress looking so beautiful, the minister announcing them husband and wife, kissing her the first time as his wife, knowing he was finally her husband, sharing the day with family and friends. It all overwhelmed him and tears sprang to his eyes. He started telling her how much he loved her over and over again and Sue began to moan out his name. Brian felt Sue's body respond to his and when she began to tighten around him he couldn't hold on any longer. A white-hot explosion shattered his mind and a he let out a long continuous moan, a sound from deep within him. This was so much more intense than anything they had ever shared before, and looking at Sue as she now lay completely spent, he was sure she shared the feeling. He didn't need to ask her, he knew they both felt it. He rolled beside her and pulled her into his arms, never wanting to ever let her go. The love he felt was so strong, he couldn't imagine not having her with him. He breathed deeply in attempt to return to normal, but he wanted her again. He wondered how Sue was feeling right now. Did she want him too? "Is that a hot tub I can hear humming?" Brian said to her kissing her cheek gently. Sue giggled, catching on to his meaning in an instant. ********** Sue sat on the edge of the beach watching Brian swim. He had said he wanted to swim about to get the kinks out of his body. She had laughed about that, knowing what he meant. They had shared an incredible night of passion, a night they would both remember for a long time to come and they both felt a little stiff and tired. They had two weeks on the island, plenty of time to relax those muscles they had overdone last night and catch up with sleep, and also time for a whole lot of loving. Sue knew that their life would always be as loving as it was now with many adventures to be shared. She sighed and stretched out on her towel on the sand still watching Brian swim lazily along in the warm water his sleek wet muscles glistening in the sunlight. She would join him soon knowing what would happen once she joined him in there. For now she was happy to sit for a little while and watch, replaying their special day over in her mind. Everything had been perfect and everything would be perfect from now on. |
