He ran his hands down shoulders and then around my waist
where he slowly unzipped my pants.
 
I
traced my fingers along his stomach, feeling the firm contours of his muscles
underneath his t-shirt.
 
I could tell
that he performed a lot of physical labor because his body was taut and
defined.
 
He ran a hand up my back and
then unfastened my bra so that he could feel his way over my breasts.
 

“You feel so amazing.”
 
He squeezed my nipples and then ran his hands down my belly, stopping
when he felt the slight bulge.
 
“And I
wanted to tell you something else.”
 
He
whispered in my ear and I leaned closer, my body excited and warm, ready and
waiting for his touch.

“What’s that?”
 
I
helped kick my pants down to the floor, then leaned back so that he could
admire my naked body.

“I wanted to tell you that I think about marrying you, and
that I’m going to love this baby just as much as I love you.”
 
He whispered in my ear and then yanked off
his jeans.
 
I was completely floored with
what he just told me, but I didn’t want to overreact.
 
Instead, I spread open my legs so that he
could place himself inside me.
 
Then I
leaned back and held him around his waist.

“Rick, this is where I want to be.
 
Right here and right now- this is it.”
 
I closed my eyes and all of the drama from
the weeks before melted away.
 
He leaned
down and kissed my nipples, then toyed with them gently in his mouth.
 
I caressed his firm body with my hands, then
waited for him to slide his manhood into my aching walls of womanly fire.
 

“Let me make love to you like there’s no tomorrow.”
 
He whispered in my ear, then thrust himself deep
inside me.
 
I let out a moan that I was
certain the dogs heard outside.
 
He moved
like a perfectly created being in and out of my body, his eyes fixated on mine
as he did.
 
I didn’t want the moment to
end, and I clung to him with passion and desire.

We rocked back and forth, our bodies melded as one, until
the moonlight disappeared behind the clouds and made way for the sun in the
morning.
 
“Rick, I feel like your body
was meant for mine.”
 
I whispered in his
ear and he continued to pleasure me with his hardness.
 
I could feel every inch of my body quiver
with sensuality as he brought me to the brink of ecstasy.
 

“I love you, Alyssa.”
 
Rick looked at me as I arched my back to meet his body.
 
He thrust deeper and deeper inside me, until
I finally exploded with a massive wave of orgasmic bliss.
 
He collapsed on top of me and I let out a
long sigh.

 
We lay there in
silence, and it felt like I was in the right place, and that my life could once
again be happy.
 
I thought of Joe, but it
didn’t make me cry.
 
Then I ran my hand
along my belly and smiled, convinced that Joseph-Michael would indeed have a
good life, after all.
 
I gazed once more
into the fire, then closed my eyes and dreamed of my new life.

Stephanie &
Washington,
An MOB Romance

Chapter
One
 

“Is there a specific theme that you want Mr. Washington?” I
asked Charles Washington as he walked back and forth in my small office. His
wedding was in a month to a woman who offered mail order bride services. The
woman is due in a few weeks from Germany just in time for their wedding.

“Joanna told me that it didn’t matter what type of wedding
we have as long as it happens.” Charles said as he finally sat back down in his
seat. I can tell that the wedding occupied a lot of his mind and that he wanted
everything to be perfect. I reached my hand across the table and placed my hand
on top of his. His dark eyes met mine then.

“Everything will be just fine. Leave it all to me.” It must
have been pretty stressful for a man to feel obligated to do things like this.
Thankfully Charles had a woman wedding planner.

“Stephanie, you’re too good to me.” Charles shook his head
and smile. “I don’t know what I would do without you.” I blushed at the gentle
look he gave me and I withdrew my hand from his. It was hard to be in the same
room with that handsome devil of a man. He was well over six feet with an
athletic build. His hair was short and wavy and his facial hair was lined up
nicely. He wore a leather cowboy hat with a vest to match that left nothing to
the imagination because I could see his biceps throbbing against the thin
fabric.

“I am good to you.” I said laughing. “So just know that
you’re in good hands.” I was good at my job which I started doing at twenty
four years old. I’ve always wanted to be a wedding planner because I wanted to
make someone’s wedding sparkle. I’ve been to hundreds of weddings as a kid,
which contributed to my love of planning them. Now that I was pushing thirty, I
could honestly say that I’m living my dream.

“I know. Thanks for putting up with me.” Charles smiled
again. I stood up from my desk and smoothed down my pale pink suit. I brushed
my dark and curly hair from out of my face and I walked around my table. My
black orbs focused deeply into Charles eyes then and I extended my hand.

“You’re not a problem at all.” I said as Charles took my
hand in his and I couldn’t help but to think how warm that it was. “We’ve ran
out of time today I’m afraid.” I said as I looked at my clock on the wall. It
was already 5 o’clock and it was time for me to close up my shop. I had to
cancel two of my other appointments today because Charles’ wedding was
priority. Not only was he paying me top notch money, but looking at his
gorgeous face was a plus as well.

“Yes, can we meet again on Thursday?” he asked me and I
looked at the calendar on my wall. I honestly didn’t have any hour free that
day, but I could squeeze him in because after all I was my own boss. When I
turned to look at him again I could see his eyes focusing in on my calendar as
well.

“Well I see that you’re pretty booked up.” Charles said and
just as I was going to protest he looked at me again. “I feel bad for working
you like a mule, how about we discuss my wedding some more during dinner?” I
don’t know why but I blushed when he invited me to dinner. I knew it wouldn’t
be a date or anything like that, but I knew that it’ll probably feel like one.
I mean I wasn’t interested in Charles in a romantic way, but anybody with
perfect eyesight could see that he was smoking hot.

“Sure,” I said once I realized that I was keeping him
waiting by not answering him right away. I just felt giddy for some odd reason.
I felt butterflies in my stomach and I felt it twisting into knots.
Calm down,
I told my flustered body.
This was not a date it was a business meeting so there was no point in getting
anxious about it.

“Is Thursday at eight good?” he asked. “I can pick you up
from your place or you can meet me at the restaurant? It’s your choice.” I
thought about that for a moment. It’ll be easier for us to meet at the
restaurant because I don’t think that my nerves would allow me to sit next to
him for too long. If I was acting like this now in my office only the lord
knows how I’d be acting seated right next to him.

“Eight is fine and let’s meet there. I don’t want you to
waste your gas by having you come all the way to my house and dropping me back
off again.” He laughed.

“I drive all day when I’m not down at my ranch.” Charles
said but not in an arrogant way. “But if you feel more comfortable driving
yourself then that’s fine as well.” My face heated at that. I didn’t want him
to think that I felt uncomfortable around him. Maybe it wouldn’t hurt for me to
catch a ride with him. I heard that you can find out more about a man if you
see what kind of car he has.

“Well if that’s alright with you then please pick me up.” I
wasn’t a child unable to hold herself back, I was a grown woman. Everything
will be fine because we’re just talking about work. Charles looked at his watch
then and started towards the door.

“Great I’ll give you a call tomorrow morning so that we can
work out the details. I’m running a little late for another engagement, see you
Thursday.” Charles put on his hat and walked out of the door. I stared after
him for a few moments before I walked around my desk and sat back down. My
palms was sweaty and my heart was beating fast.

“Get a grip, it’s just a business dinner.” At any rate, I
was tired and I really wanted to go home. It’s been a long day and I was
starving. I unlocked the drawer that housed my purse and I took my car keys out
of it. I wanted to have them already out in my hands instead of having to
fumble around my purse for them later. I sighed and stood up and walked towards
the door. My receptionist had already left for the day and the cleaning crew
hadn’t arrived yet. I locked my office door and headed out into the warm
Montana air. It was dusty outside but the smell of the outdoors revived me. The
rocky pavement made a pleasant sound as my heels stepped over them. I hated
being indoors when it was so beautiful outside, but I wouldn’t trade my job for
the world. I got into my red drop top convertible and hurried home.

“Ollie!” I called out to my German shepherd as I made my way
into my house and I heard him running to me. “Hey boy. Did you miss me?” I said
as I bent down to stroke his smooth fur. He barked at me and wagged his tail. I
got up and walked into the kitchen and he followed behind me. His water bowl
was empty so I refilled it with fresh water and also poured his dinner in his
food bowl. “There you go boy, eat up.” I said and made my way to my bedroom. It
was a little too hot to be wearing a suit today, but I wanted to look my best
because I was professional. I unbuttoned my pale pink jacket revealing my white
blouse that barely wanted to stay clasped together.

“I know you want to breathe.” I said jokingly at my breasts.
I had definitely gain a little weight in my twins and my shirt was screaming at
me to buy a bigger size, but I wasn’t. I personally thought it looked better
the way that it is now. Once I discarded my jacket and blouse I struggled
getting my pants down my hips. It was a pain to be a little thicker than most,
but I wouldn’t trade my body for the world. Instead of going straight into the
bathroom to shower, I decided to lay naked on my bed and let the breeze from my
central air run over my body. It wasn’t too long after my body relaxed in the
bed that my mind drifted to Charles.

“Who really marries somebody that they’ve never met?” I
asked myself as I thought about the German woman who was on her way to Montana
to marry Charles. “Why not marry somebody that you already know and love?” I
honestly didn’t understand why a guy as handsome as Charles didn’t meet and
date women the normal way. Then again I hadn’t went out with anyone ever since
my last steady relationship ended. He wanted things that I wasn’t quite ready
for. I was just getting started in my career and he was already talking about
having a baby. After that, I hadn’t really thought too much about dating until
recently.

“Maybe that’s why I’m so antsy about going out with
Charles.” Not dating anybody for a long time would make anybody feel a little
“rusty”. “It’s not a date Stephanie.” I said again to myself and I sighed. I
was started to agitate myself with all of this wishful thinking. I got up then
and headed towards the bathroom. “A nice bath will definitely ease my mind.”

 
Chapter
Two
 

Wednesday had passed me by like a breeze but Thursday was
dragging on rather slowly. Throughout all of my appointments today I felt
myself looking at the clock on the wall every five minutes. I knew why I was so
anxious to get out of the office. Charles and I were having dinner tonight to go
over some more detail regarding his wedding.
His wedding,
I thought to myself again. The man was taken, even
though his was getting ready for a non-traditional union, he was still another
woman’s man. It wasn’t like I liked the man or anything, even though I was
attracted to him. It’s just something about him that makes me want to get to
know him on a more personal level.

“Thank you so much Stephanie.” Tori said as she stood up and
extended her hand to me and I accepted it automatically. “These designs will
definitely make my wedding the best that this town has ever seen in the last
twenty years!” Tori’s hyperactive voice made me smile. She was a cute red
haired young woman, but I thought that she was getting married too young. At
twenty years old she decided to make that huge committed to be with someone for
the rest of her life. Even though I thought something was definitely fishy
regarding their upcoming nuptials, she was twenty and the man was pushing
fifty, I didn’t say anything about it. It wasn’t my job to try to talk somebody
out of getting married, that’ll cost me money. My job was to plan a
breathtaking wedding and that’s what I was surely going to do.

“It’s no problem Tori. I love what I do.” I grinned at her
and got up to show her to the door. “Let’s get back together once you get your
dress. I want you to take a picture of it so that I can have the right décor to
go with your dress.”

“Of course.” She said with a toothy grin. She walked out of
my office then and my receptionist, Karla, winked at me.

“You’re going to make a fortune off of that one.” She said
to me and smiled. She was right on that one; however, the real money was coming
from my companion for this evening. I looked at the clock and notice that it
was quickly approaching five and called out to Karla.

“You go on out. I’ll lock up again.” I didn’t have to tell
her twice because she was up and out of her chair before I even finished my
statement.

“Alright see you tomorrow Stephanie.” She called out as she
shut down her computer and picked up her belongings. She was out of there
faster than the speed of Tori’s voice, which was fast. I began packing up my
belongings as well and began feeling that same anxious feeling in the pit of my
stomach. I slowly inhaled and exhaled.

“It’s nothing but business.” I told myself and locked up my
office.

****

By the time 7:30 had come around I was in a tight fitting
black dress which hugged each and every bit of my curves. My hair was a wild
mess of curls, the way that I liked it, and my make-up was subtle yet
seductive. Even though this technically wasn’t a date, I wanted to look as if I
was going out. Ollie came running into my bedroom then and sat down on the
ground.

“I shouldn’t be out too long, but don’t wait up.” I laughed
at myself as I talked to the dog like he was my teenage child. Just when I
looked myself over again in the mirror, my doorbell rang signaling that Charles
was here. “Here goes nothing.” I said to myself as I made my way to the front
door. I looked out the peephole and I saw his familiar face looking equally as
anxious as I felt.

“Hello Charles.” I said as I opened the door and his eyes
went wide.

“Stephanie, is that you?” he asked and I lightly blushed as
his eyes hungrily ran up and down my body.

“Yes” I said and I laughed trying to ease some of my nerves.
“You look amazing.” I told him as I looked over his attire. He had ditched the
cowboy hat and vest and in its place was a nice suit with his jet black hair
lightly blowing in the wind. He definitely looked like he was going on a date
instead of a business dinner as well. “Did you want to come in for a moment?” I
asked him when I realized that I just left the man standing on my steps. He
shook his head and looked uncomfortably away from me.

“Not at all, you can come right out.” I grabbed my purse and
closed the door just as Ollie came running towards the door. “You look
beautiful as well, Stephanie.” I grinned at that. I knew that I was a beautiful
woman because I knew how to carry myself, but it was always appreciated when
someone told me that I looked good.

“Thank you.” I said as he led me to his Chrysler 300. I
didn’t know why I expected him to drive a pickup truck just because he wore
cowboy gear. Looks can be deceiving I guess and I felt bad for basing his
vehicle on a stereotype. “Nice car.” I said to him and blushed when he held the
car door open for me.

“Thanks, Joanna actually suggested that I buy this car
because she saw it in a magazine where she stays at. I like the car because it
gets me to where I’m going.” I frowned at the mention of Joanna’s name. I saw a
picture of her, she was pretty with long brunette hair and she was slim. She
almost looked like a supermodel. She didn’t seem like a woman that would get
Charles’ heart racing. The way that he was looking at me earlier, I could tell
he liked his women with a little more curves. I cursed myself for being jealous
of a girl who I hadn’t even met. These last few weeks that I spent speaking
with Charles did something to my mind that I didn’t like.

“Well I think it’s a great car.” I said again as I tried to
force my mind to stop thinking about Charles’ mail order bride. “So where are
we going?” Charles glanced at me and grinned.

“To a crab shack!” he grinned and I stared at the side of
his face in too much shock to say anything. Did we really get dressed up just
to eat some fish? “I’m just joking.” Charles chuckled and I couldn’t help but
to laugh as well. “I found this place called ‘La Fleur’ it seems like a nice
place to take a lady. I’ve never been personally.” My eyes widened in surprise.
La Fleur was actually a pretty high class restaurant, not to mention a go to
place for guys trying to impress their women.

“Wow, La Fleur is actually a pretty good fine dining
restaurant. I’ve been there once or twice, but it is expensive. You sure about
this?” I asked him. I was impressed that he went through the effort to take me
to such a classy restaurant, but I didn’t want him to break his pocket for me.
“Wait…” I said as a thought crossed my mind. “You sure you want to go there?
That’s a place you should take your fiancée.” The word “fiancée” tasted sour as
it ran off of my tongue. He shook his head.

“Don’t worry about that. I’m taking you to show you my
appreciation.” He reached over and squeezed my thigh in a reassuring way and I
felt the electricity from his fingers shoot up my thigh. I was unable to fight
back a gasp as the electricity moved its current around my moistening
centerpiece. I blushed when I saw him glance over from the corner of his eye. I
thought he was going to yank his hand away from me after he noticed that his
touch had me flustered, but he didn’t. He lightly squeezed me again sending
another current throughout my body right before he pulled his hand away. I saw
him glance at me again from the corner of his eye and I could tell that this
night was probably going to get a little more interesting.

God, I don’t know what I got myself into, I thought as we
drove through the city.
