Chapter 15
Samantha woke as the sun came in her window, she smiled as she felt Harvey?s arm around her still.
She cuddled a little closer to him, waking him.
?Morning, I did not mean to wake you,? she said as she smiled at him.
?I am glad you did,? he said kissing her, ?I wanted to tell you how fantastic you made me feel.?
She kissed his chest, ?You were.?
He blushed, ?I was kind of worried,? he confessed, ?It has been a while and - well an old coot like me might not have what it takes to satisfy a ??
Samantha?s kiss stopped him, ?Age is not a factor, love is. And I have loved you from the moment you took my hand.?
This brought a smile to his face, ?That makes what I have to say a lot easier.?
She lay her head back on his chest.
?When I lost Thelma I thought my world had come to an end,? he started, ?Time meant nothing to me, life meant nothing to me, I felt I would never love again. When Sara introduced us I started to live again, the touch of your hand, that enchanting smile, I knew right there that I had to have you.?
Samantha lift her head and smiled at him, ?What took you so long??
He chuckled, ?Fear.?
?Big ole you scared of little ole me?? she said as she quickly straddled him.
He pulled her to him and kissed her, ?Terrified.?
She sat back, ?Why?? He just looked at her. ?Oh! The age thing again,? she said smiling at him. He nodded.
She was tracing hearts on his chest, ?When did you stop being afraid??
He reached for and tenderly caressed her face, ?I had a talk with someone who is an expert in ?the age thing?.?
Samantha knew he meant Gil.
?Remind me to thank him,? she said as she kissed him.
Harvey smiled, ?I have never done this before.?
?What?? she said between kisses.
?Made love first thing in the morning,? he told her.
The passion they shared was just as intense as it had been the night before.
Samantha fell forward and lay on his chest, he was panting, trying to get his breathing under control.
?I defiantly should do it more often,? he said, ?That was incredible.?
Samantha sat up and looked at him, ?This was your first time making love that way??
?Yes,? he said, ?And it was mind blowing.?
Samantha giggled, ?If you think that was fun wait until we try...?
She leaned forward and whispered a few of her other favorite positions in his ear. He smiled at the thought of what she had said, he knew now was the time to finish telling her what he had started to.
?I know this is sudden and if you say no I will understand,? he said as he held her.
?I wasted four years getting to this point, I do not want to waste another day. Samantha, I love you, I want to wake with you in my arms, I never want to be away from you again.?
Sammie sat on the bed and looked at him, ?Live together??
?We can,? he said.
Sammie looked at him, confused. ?You don?t want to live together?? she said trying to make since out of what he meant.
?I do,? he said suddenly realizing he had confused her. ?But I did not mean ?live together? what I meant was live together as husband and wife. Samantha, I would be honored if you would become my wife.?
Sammie smiled at him, she had dreamed about this for the last four years.
?I should make you wait for your answer,? she said smiling, ?I mean I waited long enough for you to ask.?
?Fair enough,? he said sitting next to her and wrapping his arms around her.
?Ok I made you wait long enough,? she said giggling, ?Yes.?
?Yes?? he said smiling. ?Yes my love,? she said.
Across town in the Grissom house it was not the sun that woke the lovers, it was a dog who desperately needed to pee.
Gil laughed as he slipped on a robe to let the dog out.
?Coffee?? he asked as he headed for the stairs.
?Would love some,? she said slipping on her robe too.
Hank finished his business, Gil came into the kitchen to find coffee, juice and muffins on the table.
?Hon, where did you ever come up with that position?? he asked.
?I read about it someplace,? she said smiling, ?Did you like it??
?Like it is not the words for it,? he said grinning, ?Loved it.?
?Speaking of ?loved it?,? she said, ?Your way was fantastic. I could feel every inch of you inside me.?
?I think we need to stick those two on the ?let?s make sure we do it again? list,? he said starting to get aroused again.
Sara noticed the tip of his manhood starting to stick out from his robe.
?You know,? she said standing and walking over to where he sat, ?A picture I seen once before just came into my head.?
Sara opened his robe just far enough to let his throbbing member out, she put one leg on each side of him and lowered her self onto his manhood.
Gil groaned with pleasure, he opened her robe and found her breasts.
They found that perfect rhythm that experienced lovers know, he pulled her close to him and kissed her as they both achieved their release.
Sara lay her head on his shoulder, her body trembling.
In his ear she whispered, ?That was fun too.?
?Most assuredly,? he agreed.
Sara suddenly started to giggle, Gil looked at her, she nodded her head. His eyes fallowed the way she was looking and he too started to laugh.
Neither of them had noticed that Hank had been watching them all this time.
Sara stood and fastened her robe, Hank looked first at her, then at Gil, then at his empty food dish.
Sara was still giggling as she filled his dish.
?I can only image what he must have been thinking,? Gil said as he too fastened his robe.
?I should think it might be something along the line of ?Hey, silly humans, I would like to be fed before you get stuck that way?,? Sara said finally able to stop giggling.
Sara had to warm the coffee, ?I think we got just a little distracted,? she said smiling. ?A little?? he said.
The phone rang, Sara answered it, all Gil heard was ?Sure come on over.?
He looked at her, ?Come on over??
?That was Sammie, she said she needed to talk to me and asked if she could come over if I was not busy.?
?Oh,? Gil said. ?Well I am not,? then she smiled, ?Well I am not now.?
Gil decided it best to get dressed before she got there.
?It would not do to have something stick out of my robe again,? he said.
Sara laughed, ?I believe you are right.?
They both went upstairs and dresses.
While they were waiting the subject of Grasshoppers name came up again.
?I like Kittens idea,? Sara said. ?Allen Alexander?? Gil said.
?Well the Alexander part,? Sara said, ?But I think something else would go better.?
She wrote the name on a piece of paper, ?I like the way it looks,? she said handing the paper to Gil.
"ALEXANDER JAMES,? he said, ?Kind of a big handle I would think.?
Sara smiled, ?Alexander James Grissom, my little AJ.?
Gil gently touched her stomach, ?Alexander James - AJ - Grasshopper Grissom. I hope the boy dose not grow up to hate us.?
Sara laughed. From behind her she heard, ?I know I am funny looking but had no idea I was that funny looking.?
She turned to see Harvey and Sammie standing in the doorway. ?The door was open,? Sammie said.
?How about we grab our coffee and head to the den,? Gil said to Harvey, ?Something tells me the ladies have some ?girl talk? to take care of.?
Both the men took their cups and headed for the den.
Before he left Gil kissed Sara. Neither of them were surprised when Harvey kissed Sammie.
?I take it THAT is what you needed to talk to me about?? Sara asked Sammie as she poured coffee.
?You will never guess in a million years,? Sammie started.
Over coffee and muffins Sammie told Sara all about last night - well leaving out the COMPLETE details anyway.
She also told her about Harvey?s marriage proposal.
?You did except?? Sara asked.
?In a New York minute,? Sammie said.
Sara smiled, she never did understand the meaning of that phrase but she did know Sammie?s answer.
?I am so happy for you,? Sara said. ?When??
?Harv and I am talking about that,? Sammie said. ?I have vacation time coming up next month, I think that is when we will get married.?
While the ladies talked in the kitchen the same conversation was going on in the den.
?Well congratulations, old friend,? Gil said, ?I told you that you did not have anything to worry about.? They both laughed.
