wrapped her legs more firmly
around his waist. “Mmmm…that feels good.”
“Thank God,” he whispered softly then began thrusting. He didn’t want to
hurt her, but he couldn’t hold still for another moment. He had to make love
to her.
He moved in and out at a slow steady pace, watching for any signs of pain
on her part. Within seconds she was thrusting with him and starting to pant
softly.
Amanda stroked her hands over his back, meeting him thrust for thrust.
She could feel the tension building inside her. When her climax came it
wasn’t slow and steady, it was blinding. She let out a scream of pleasure
which she quickly buried in his shoulder.
As soon as he felt her clenching around him, Jason started thrusting faster
toward his own climax. Just a few more thrusts and he was there. He let
out a shout and collapsed on top of her. Burying his face in her neck, he
fought for control.
“Are you okay?” she asked as she stroked his back soothingly.
He laughed and rolled to his side. “I’m supposed to ask you that, silly girl.”
She grinned and stretched. “I’m trying to figure out what I was so nervous
about. That was incredible.”
He wrapped his arms around her and settled her head onto his shoulder.
“We’ll have to do that again sometime.”
“Sometime very soon,” she agreed.
Chapter 6
Amanda felt almost sad on Monday as she packed up their things to head
back to Stratford. She had enjoyed the days of getting to know her
husband so much more than she’d ever dreamed she would. While she
was happy that they would be starting their lives together, and she would
be moving into her new home, she was going to miss having Jason’s
undivided attention.
Jason walked up behind her and wrapped his hands around her waist. “I’m
going to miss our little hotel room.”
She turned in his arms and rested her head on his shoulder, still marveling
that she had the right to touch him this way. “I was just thinking the same
thing. I’ve enjoyed getting to know you with no other obligations.”
He nodded. “That’s exactly what I mean. I love farming; don’t get me
wrong. I wouldn’t change what I do for anything, but I would have loved to
be able to take another week away from everything.”
He brushed a quick kiss across her mouth then picked up the bags. She
grabbed the garment bags holding her wedding dress and his tuxedo and
followed him out to the truck.
They held hands and talked about the community they’d be living in as he
drove back. He asked again if she was sure that she felt okay about giving
up her job.
“Yeah, if I feel like I want to work, I can always offer a quilting class or
something of that nature. They’re fun to teach, because the women taking
the classes actually want to learn. When I taught high school, even though
the classes were electives, it was obvious that most of the girls were just
there to get a credit toward graduation. None were really there because
they had a strong desire to learn to cook or sew.”
Jason nodded thoughtfully. “I can see that. I just don’t want you to be
sitting around the house with nothing to do.”
Amanda laughed. “I really don’t think I’ll run out of things to do. I’ll
probably start out by putting my own touches on the house. New curtains,
quilts, and that type of thing. I’m sure I’ll be cooking and cleaning on a
daily basis. By the time I have the house the way I want it, I’ll hopefully be
pregnant, and then I can start sewing maternity clothes and baby clothes.
And I did put in my application to sub with the Stratford schools.”
“My mom always dreaded sewing. Do you really like doing that kind of
thing?”
“I didn’t when I started out. I first began to sew when I was twelve and
could no longer fit into regular sized women’s clothes. I’m sure you
understand how that goes. Men have the big and tall shops, but women
only have plus sized shops, and I’m too
