First Love (15 page)

"That was amazing, Princess. But, I'm afraid it was all for nothing. This is where we’re going." He smiles and kisses my forehead. Before I look to see where we are, I look in his eyes.

“Well, since I didn't get my hints from you, I guess you are just going to have to show me what your mouth can do when it's between my legs later." He chuckles. I can see by the look on his face that he likes when I talk like that to him. For some reason, I’m feeling bold. Maybe it is watching how easily I can make Kyle come apart by taking control.

“That is definitely something I can do. But, first … your surprise." He caresses my cheek then turns my head to look out the windshield.

We are at Reed Lake. We used to come here all the time when we were teenagers. This is where Kyle first made love to me. The lake itself is fairly small, but it’s beautiful. The water is almost clear, there are cattails along the banks, and some of the most beautiful old oak trees hanging over the lake. It is very secluded back here. Of all the times we have been here, I have never seen anyone else. On the other side of the lake in a clearing there was a blanket set up with a cooler and a metal fire pit. I can't believe he did all this. It is so romantic.

"Do you remember this place?" Kyle asks shyly.

"Of course I do, how could I forget it? We have made some amazing memories here together." I kiss him softly on his lips.

"How about we go make some more tonight," he says as he nips my earlobe.

her to the clearing. As she sits down on the blanket, I pour us both a glass of champagne. I need to remember to take my time and stick to my plan so that this night is perfect for her. After her little performance in the truck, it is going to be very difficult to keep myself under control. She is always surprising me in one way or another. Tonight it's my turn to surprise her. As soon as I get the fire going, I turn around and see that she is watching me with a cute little smirk on her face.

"What are you smiling about?"

"Besides that sexy body of yours? I was thinking of the first time you brought me here for a picnic."

That first picnic was the night we both lost our virginity. Even though it was probably one of the best nights of my life, I didn't know what the hell I was doing. I was nervous as hell. So much so, I threw up twice before I even picked her up. At least this time around I know what I am doing.

"I enjoyed myself that night, but the fact that I didn't know shit about pleasing you must have been very disappointing for you."

"It was perfect. You forget, I didn't know anything either."

I am really going to have to do something nice for Paul. Actually, Holly is probably responsible for all of this. It's perfect. I pull out a couple sandwiches and hand one to Amber. She takes it and smiles. I can see how happy she is. I only hope to keep seeing that happiness on her face for the rest of our lives. We talk while we finish the sandwiches. By the time we finish, the sun is setting, so I grab the acoustic guitar that Paul hid for me on the other side of the tree. As soon as she sees it, she shakes her head. I look up to see she has tears in her eyes. I start to panic. Did I do something wrong? Does she know what I am planning? I quickly kneel next to her.

"Princess, what's wrong? Why are you crying?"

"Nothing is wrong. I am not upset. This is all just so romantic and perfect. These are happy tears, I promise." I can’t help myself; I kiss her like I have never kissed her before. I try to put everything I feel for her in that kiss. When I pull back, she is breathing heavily and I am so hard, it hurts. But, I’m sticking to my plan.

“I love you, Princess. I wanted to write a song for you, but I just couldn't seem to get the words down on paper. I know this isn't as romantic, but this song always makes me think of you." I sit in front of her, get my guitar situated, and began singing
Tangled Up in You
by Staind.

I finish and set the guitar aside. Tears are rolling down her cheeks and I wipe them away with my fingers.

“I want you to know how much you mean to me. You coming back into my life made me the happiest man in the world. I finally feel like I have just about everything I have ever wanted in my life. I know we haven’t been back together very long, but we have known each other our whole lives. Everything with you feels right, perfect; like we are two puzzle pieces that fit together." I reach into my pocket and pull out the little black velvet box and open it in front of her. She gasps. “Amber, I want to love you, make you happy, make you laugh, kiss away your tears, and be the father to your children. I want to hold you every night when we go to sleep, wake up and kiss that beautiful face every morning. Will you marry me?"

I
GASP,
completely shocked and overwhelmed with emotion from the most beautiful song I’ve ever heard. He gave that to me, sang it to me. Now, kneeling before me is Kyle holding the most gorgeous ring I have ever seen. It’s a two carat, princess cut, solitaire on a gold band. I know what’s coming next. I know what I will say. I just can't believe he is doing this so soon.

His proposal, his words, are heartfelt and sincere. I can’t feel it, see it when I look in his eyes. He means every word and I’m speechless. I can’t get the words out, but I can definitely envision spending the rest of my life with him. There is no doubt in my mind.

"Baby, we don't have to do anything right away. We can wait as long as you want for a wedding. I just want to know that you want all the same things. I’m really not trying to push you."

"Yes," is all I can get out, the tears falling fast and hard.

“Yes what, Princess?"

"Yes, of course I will marry you. I love you so much. You make me so happy, Kyle. I have wanted to marry you since I was five years old."

“You have just made me incredibly happy." He takes my hand in his and places the ring on my finger. It fits perfectly. He brings my hand to his lips and kisses where he just placed the ring. “And, now that you've gotten your surprise, I think it's time I make good on what I owe you." He grabs my other hand and pulls me closer to the fire, telling me to lie down.

He’s not even touching me, but the look on his face is full of pleasurable promises. Every nerve ending in my body tingles with excitement. He leisurely begins to unbutton my shirt, causing me to regret my wardrobe choice this morning. He’s not veering away from his plans to be romantic and take his time. I’m almost ready to scream for him to rip the damn shirt off. Once the last button is undone, he pushes the shirt open and slides it off my arms. He starts to trail kisses from my forehead, down my cheek, to my ear, along my neck, and when he finally gets to the swell of my breasts, I am ready to explode. He kisses and licks the mound not covered by my satin bra as his hand reaches around to unhook it. I lift my arms and he pulls the bra off, tossing it aside. His hands cup my breasts and trail down to the waistband of my jeans. He opens the button, glides the zipper down, and slips them off, tossing them to join the growing pile of discarded clothes.

I lay there in nothing but a pair of lace panties while he sits back on his heels and lets his eyes wander from my head to my feet and back again very slowly. "Absolutely beautiful," he says in a husky whisper. He lifts his shirt over his head and gives me a sexy grin when he notices me looking at the delicious V shape at his hips.

He slowly pulls my lace panties off as he leans down and brings his lips to mine, hard. So hard, I can feel it in my toes. His lips move from mine, down my neck to my breasts. He licks and sucks each nipple until I’m writhing beneath him. He eases lower, circling my belly button with his tongue while his hands are on my thighs, pushing my legs apart.

When his warm tongue flicks my clit, my whole body feels like it is on fire. He starts teasingly slow at first, licking and sucking, never taking his eyes of mine. When he picks up the pace, he thrusts two of his fingers inside me.

"Oh …" I close my eyes, the intense pleasure that building. His mouth leaves my slick flesh.

"Open your eyes, Princess ... I want you to watch me make you come." As soon as I open them, he devours me again and my orgasm hits me like a tidal wave. He slowly moves up my body, placing kisses as he moves, until his cock is rubbing against my entrance. His lips crash down on mine at the same time he slams into me, causing me to cry out. I wrap my legs around his hips, trying to pull him closer.

Kyle slows his pace as he leans down so his lips are against my ear, his warm breath sending shivers down my spine.

"I am never letting you go again." His voice is straining as he tries to get the words out. All the emotions I am feeling are apparent in his voice. “I am going to spend every day for the rest of my life loving you."
