I sit here with him, the man of my dreams, not even 2ft away. He came for me just like I knew he would. Though it wasn't EXACTLY how I had planned it to be it was wonderful just the same. He came and kissed me, I mean REALLY kissed me and if that weren't enough he even called me his wife when yelling at Henry for god knows what (I was still shaken up by the kiss and then him calling me his wife, Henry who?). He was so handsome stepping out of the water like some Aussie Adonis, god he makes every inch of me melt. I never thought that love could happen to me, but yet here it is in the flesh, now to convince him of that. He's too stubborn for his own good and won't fully admit how in love with me he already is although he did say that in some loose version of the word he does love me. I can't tell you how that made me feel, it's like he's finally seeing what I've been trying to tell him for months, that we're perfect for each other. I look over briefly to see his sleeping figure on the floor of the hotel room we rented for the night, I don't know why he didn't take me up on my offer to let him sleep in the bed with me. We are after all husband and wife, but I'm hanging on the hope that maybe he doesn't trust himself with me and him alone in a bed. I'm all for it though, he was my first lover and I want him to be my last. I will always love him and I refuse to believe that he won't one day return every ounce of love and desire that I feel for him.

I'm trying my damnedest to get comfortable on this rock hard floor and it doesn't help that SHE is up on the comfortable bed looking so damn beautiful. She's holding that blasted bunny and looks so innocent and loving, stop it Simon just stop it. You can't be in love with her, it's just not possible. This is Katie, the woman who has made your life a living hell these past months, the woman who also made these past months bearable in some strange way. Why can't I admit it to her and to myself that the kiss on that island was my doing not hers. I wanted to feel her mouth on mine every bit as she wanted it. I wanted to feel her body pressed so close to mine that I couldn't tell where she began and I ended. I look into her eyes and for some strange reason I don't see "Katie the girl that annoys the hell out of me," but rather "Katie a beautiful women who happens to be my wife and I want her so bad." Then why am I down here and she's up there? I couldn't tell you. I sit up and look at her and notice that her eyes are locked on mine. She lets a shy smile pass her lips and it's driving me crazy. I can't let her see the affect she's having on me so I turn away. I can here her giggle in satisfaction, I know and she knows she's won, but I won't give her the satisfaction of admitting it. I don't know why or how, but some magnetic force pulls my face around again and I am once again faced with her soft, loving, warm, blue eyes. She bites her lower lip almost seductively and I can't take it anymore, I have to hold her, feel her next to me. I stand up and sit down on the bed quickly my eyes never leaving hers. She cups my face ever so gently and her eyes shine as she knows what we both want. I lean down and capture her waiting mouth and mine, her lips part instantly inviting me into the warm crevice of her mouth. I have never tasted anything or anyone so sweet and it's sending little tremors down my spine. She reaches out and places her arms around my neck urging me even deeper into her. I grab her by the waste in order to get our bodies closer, I need to feel her close to me. My hands run absent mindedly up and down her back under her shirt, loving the sensations touching her skin gives me. A small moan escapes my lips and she captures it with her mouth and lets out a similar moan. I know at this moment that that is the sweetest sound I will ever hear. Suddenly I feel something cold and wet against my cheek and it shakes me from the intoxication of my wife's mouth. I look over and see 2 red beady eyes staring at me, damn bunny has the worst timing or the best depending. Katie just giggles and scratches the top of his head.


"Oh was Snicker's lonely?" She says in an annoying baby voice that people use when talking to small animals.

"Katie what do you say we put that thing…" She flashes me a hurt look and cover's the rabbit's ears. I sigh and give her a small smile.

"I mean what do you say we put Snicker's in his cage."

"But Simon do we have to? He hate's being all cooped up."

"Katie we bought the cage for a reason, he's got to stay in it or we could get thrown out of the hotel. We already are pressing our luck by sneaking the thin…Snicker's in here to begin with."

"Alright." She holds the bunny to her and climbs off the bed over to the cage by the wall. She kisses the top of his head and then proceeds to apologize to the damn thing. Women, I'll never understand them, especially not Katie.

"See now that wasn't so hard."

"But he looks so pitiful."

"Stop worrying about the damn rabbit, he's fine." I know I shouldn't yell at her over something so trivial, but I'm frustrated.

"Sorry, I guess we better get to bed, it's getting late."

"Yeah, goodnight." I get off the bed and try to make myself comfortable on the floor, which is even harder this time. I just want to be with her, hold her, make love to her, God what is coming over me.

"Simon?" Her sweet voice whispers into the darkness of the room. I catch my breath and look over to see her leaning over the bed to face me.

"Yes?"

"My offer still stand's if you want it." She smiles so sweetly at me and at this point I'm thinking what the hell, I mean all we'll do is just sleep right? So I give in, what is happening to me.

"Fine, if it will shut you up." She squeals with delight and as annoyed as that should make me it almost seems endearing and I smile as I climb in next to her. To my surprise she doesn't move closer to me or try to force anything to happen, as I was sure she would. I sighed and put my arm around her waist pulling her closer to me, I knew she was smiling giddy as a schoolgirl, even though I couldn't see her.

"Simon, thank you."

"For what?" I'm half asleep now and my voice comes out all groggy.

"For rescuing me and well kissing me, both times. I love you." She whispers the last part and it's the last thing I hear before drifting off to sleep, dreams of my wife fill my head.
