  It was almost his undoing, when he had held off so long. He knew tonight's lovemaking would be a quick one. He had already been on the verge of ejaculating, more than once, from hearing her moans of desire. He wanted to make sure she had her pleasure before he ever got his; although it was just as much a pleasure for him, when he was tasting her sweetness.

  When he saw she couldn't wait a minute longer, he positioned himself just so and he filled her up with his hardness. He would soon enough fill her up with his own juices. The excitement between them was empowering and intoxicating. When he shuddered with the pulsing of his orgasm, inside her, she grabbed his hair and tugged roughly. That made it even more intense.

  He knew he loved this woman and he would die for her, if need be. His feelings were stronger now than ever. All he could do was collapse beside her and pull her as close as she could get to him. His soon to be wife, how incredible was that, he thought.

  They woke the next morning with smiles on their face. Both knew the turning point in their relationship was finally realized. It was sealed and bonded with last night's passion. True happiness had finally found them and neither one would ever let it go.

  Justin padded through the house and went to make coffee for them. He decided they would lounge in bed with their cups and discuss the plans Megan had made for their upcoming wedding. Wow, the thought alone could make him smile. He couldn't believe she was finally ready to be his wife. He had to admit, he was a little worried her fear would continue to hold her back. He had been willing to wait forever, if that's what it would have took. She was worth the wait. He knew from the first time he laid eyes on her, that she was a special lady. He could never have been prepared for just how special though.

  He made it back to their bedroom quietly, without waking the girls and gave Megan her cup and he climbed back in bed beside her. She looked surprised, rightfully so, since he usually had his coffee on the deck or at the table with his computer.

  "What are you up to this morning, Mr.?"

  "Who me? I am not up to nothing, but I do want to hear all about these wedding plans. I don't suppose you just expect me to show up at a designated time and place, now do you? "

  Megan laughed heartily at that and told him that would work too.

  "Seriously though, I have it all planned out. A small, family and close friends only, church ceremony, without too much frou-frou. Are you with me so far?"

  "Baby, I would go to the courthouse if that's what you wanted."

  "That's tempting Justin, but I am going to have to say no. I really want your kids and parents to be here.

  This is a special day for us both and I want it to be one we will always remember."

  Justin just grinned at her as he said: "As long as you are there and you say those two words that count, I will be happy."

  "Oh, Megan said, what two words would that be? I'm yours? "

  Justin grabbed her and rolled her on top of him. "Exactly, and don't you forget it!"

  Megan was squirming in a fit of giggles. She was the happiest she had ever been. She thought back on those few short months earlier and how her life was a mere existence and compared it with now; before Justin, she wasn't really living, she was only going through the motions. Today, her life finally begins and all that junk that held her down had nothing on her anymore. This, she thought, is where I belong...

  Epilogue

  The wedding was a small affair with about forty people in attendance, including Justin's parents and his children and Megan’s parents and the girls. They were just as happy about the wedding as Megan and Justin were and had a blast at the reception. They were so exhausted after the ceremony, they went home and napped. No one believed it when they said they were going to lie down and rest, they thought it was a code for sex. We really did nap and when we woke up, then we had sex. We had no idea how tiresome planning a wedding could be, not to mention, very draining. We were both nervous, but not because we had cold feet, because we wanted everyone to see our happiness and just for the day, feel the joy that we felt with each other. Megan knew they accomplished that. They will have a belated honeymoon when things settle down. Right now, they were cherishing the gift they had been given; each other!
