Chapter 66: The Gift Of A Lifetime

Hoping Kelly picks up she hits the button to connect. "Hey, how are you?" Kelly whispers on the other end. The little one has just gone down for a nap, so she is really trying not to wake him.

"I'm good, but I have a question to ask you? " Samantha sounds a little scared as she wonders.

"Are you o.k.? What happened?" Kelly asks as she raises her voice a little.

"Yeah, I'm o.k. but I had a really bad dream the night before my birthday. I dreamt that Ben died, and I had to see his dead body. I am so scared. It was really vivid." Samantha cries out.

Kelly goes into the living room so she can talk without waking up baby Jackson. "It was just a dream. Nothing is going to happen. You know it, I know it. Everything will be o.k."

"I think I just needed to talk about it aloud with you. Just hearing the words and you telling me it's going to be o.k. makes me feel so much better. I feel like the dark cloud has finally moved from over my head. Thank you, sis."

Samantha wishes Kelly was there so she could give her a hug but instead she tells her, "I love you. I need to go. Ben is waiting for me in the car. He's taking me to lunch. We had just made love so he's really hungry." She giggles as she thinks about it.

"I love you too sis, I am glad you feel better now. Wow! I bet that was a mouthful." Kelly laughs as she wishes she was having that much fun. "I will talk to you later. Bye."

They both hang up and Samantha runs out to the car. "Sorry baby. I had to ask Kelly a girly question. I knew you wouldn't want to hear about it." She tries to cover up her conversation.

"No problem let's get going. I'm absolutely starving." He says as his stomach starts growling loudly.

They take the quickest route to the diner and find that there are only a handful of people there. "Good thing there wasn't a line out the door or I would have to eat them." He jokes as he gives her a wink.

As they enter the restaurant he looks around and points to an open spot, taking her hand and leading her over to it. When they sit down a waitress comes over and takes their orders. After she leaves, he grabs her hand.

"I have been thinking about something. Since Kelly and Joel gave us a house I wondered when you want to start moving in? I vote for tomorrow because I have the next two days off. Not to mention, I am really excited to check it out." His face lights up as he thinks about their new home.

"I honestly don't know how, but I completely forgot about it. I guess I have just been so overwhelmed with everything, but tomorrow sounds wonderful." She wonders if worrying about the nightmare has been taking more of a toll on her then she previously thought.

The waitress shows up with their meals and he devours his as he comments how delicious everything smells and tastes. She picks at her food while wondering how long it will take to move everything. When he is finished scraping his plate clean, he looks at her and asks, "Are you O.K? Not hungry?"

She nods and pushes the plate to Ben, and he finishes hers too. Afterwards, he leaves a generous tip, and they leave hand in hand. As they go out the door, she sees something that catches her eye. She slows down and he turns to her. "What's up?"

"Never mind, I thought I saw something, but it was just my eyes playing tricks on me." He looks at her oddly, so she explains. "I thought I saw an orange cat over there, but I looked again and it's not there."

"O.k. well let's take a trip to the new house and look around before we go home." He grabs her hand again and then he holds the door for her as she gets in the car.

When they arrive, they get out and look around. "Is this the right place? I simply can't believe it. It's huge!" She jumps up and down as she feels the excitement pump through her veins.

In front of them is a huge gorgeous red brick house. There are trellises that ivy must climb up in the middle of summer, and an expansive garden in the back. Shrubbery surrounds the grounds, and all the front is gated in by a wrought iron fence. "There has to be 10 acres here. Look at that pool in the back too. Holy shit!" She almost faints from excitement as she looks around the side of the house to the back of the property.

He produces the key and opens the front door. As they look inside, they cannot believe their eyes. In the entry way there is a staircase that leads to the upstairs. The craftsmanship of the wood fixtures is exquisite. They step in and he automatically runs his fingers all over the wood.

The flooring is made up of the most colorful Spanish tiles. So beautiful that she almost doesn't want to step on them. She looks around and is taken back by the pure talent of the architect. Her eyes start to tear up as she realizes that this is their home and hopefully it will be filled with the sounds of children soon enough.

Exploring the rest of the house, they find two full baths with garden tubs and a shower with multiple shower heads in the master. The master bedroom is huge with all wood floors and a masterfully crafted Persian rug at the center of the room. She simply can't believe that this is all theirs.

He motions for her to come to the window, and they look out to find a balcony that looks out over the garden and the grounds. She falls in love with the place and can't help but to feel that it is too good to be true. "Wow. This is a dream come true." She turns and finds herself in his arms.

He takes her chin between his fingers and raises her lips up to his. As he kisses her, she closes her eyes and moans. Her body melts into his arms and he lifts her up to wrap her legs around his waist. He stumbles inside and rests her back against the wall as he slides his hands up her legs.

She looks down for a second and is so thankful she is wearing a skirt while he reaches the warmth between her legs and strums her clit like a fine fiddle. His fingers push past her panties and seek the hot wetness inside her. She moans and kisses him feverishly.

She can feel him grow harder and harder as his fingers grow sticky within her. "Take me please. Now." Just as soon as she utters those words, he slips her down onto her feet and then slides her panties down. He unzips his pants, straining against them.

Taking his shaft in her hand she strokes tightly. He moans and closes his eyes, and she grabs onto him even tighter, then he stops her as he picks her up and slides into her. The need swelling in both causes him to thrust hard into her as she clenches down on him. "Harder."

He opens his eyes and looks at her. He slams into her, forcing her to bite her lower lip again. She can feel the wall as it gives her back a friction burn, but she doesn't care. If feels so good. After one last thrust, they both explode, and he surrounds her body in his arms. He holds her like a teddy bear for quite a while. He slowly puts her down to find her feet before he lets her go.

She reaches up and strokes his cheek thoughtfully. The look in her eyes tells him all he needs to know. That she too is looking forward to raising their little ones here.
