"I'm not sure what you mean by that, but we both know this is something we won't ever forget. I bet you didn’t know you were dating a freaking ninja?"
I laughed at her in confusion. “What?”
She shrugged. “Come on, you saw my moves up there. Boom! I knocked his ass out with one hit. And he never even saw me coming, either. Cause I had the reflexes of a cat, the eyes of a hawk, and the, uh, cane of an old lady. Still, I was a total ninja.”
I couldn’t help but laugh at how proud of herself she was. Hell, I was proud of her, too. “I have to admit, that was pretty impressive, Jess. You were really brave.”
“Damn right,” she said. “I’m not letting anyone hurt my man. No way. Especially not some turd like Fred Stevens.”
I laughed. “Well, thank you again for that.”
She beamed with pride. “You’re welcome. Stick with me, buddy. I’ll keep you safe.”
“I believe that,” I said, chuckling. “But like I was saying, I wanted this trip to be special, for reasons other than you saving a plane full of people.”
She looked at me, meeting my gaze. “I don’t understand.”
I took a deep breath, wondering if she could see the way my body was trembling. This was it. Whatever doubts I had about being with somebody again, really being with them, were gone. I would never forget Jess's acts of heroism on that plane, not for as long as I lived. She was better than me and far better than what I deserved, but I was hoping that wouldn't matter. All I knew was that I wanted her. I wanted her forever, and I was willing to do a hell of a lot to make that happen.
“Drew?” she asked hesitantly, her concern radiating off her. “You’re kind of freaking me out.”
“I don’t mean to. It’s just that what happened on the plane, it solidified something for me. It made me sure of something I already knew, made me sure in a way I won’t ever forget.”
“And what was that?”
“That I need you. That I love you.”
“I love you, too. You know that. Or at least I hope you do.”
“I do, Jess, don’t worry about that,” I said. “You’ve never given me any reason to doubt you. That’s kind of what I’m getting at. I want to make you a promise, so that you never have to doubt me again, either.”
It was my moment. I could feel it. Holding tightly to the little velvet box I'd kept hidden beneath the covers at my side, I got off the bed and onto one knee in front of where Jess sat stunned. Both of her hands flew to her mouth, and I opened the box, willing myself not to pass out from the stress of what she might say.
"Jess? You are the best thing that's ever happened to me. You saved me. You brought me back to life, and I want to spend the rest of that life showing you how much I love you and Emma. I know it hasn't been very much time, and I realize you might think I'm crazy, but I have a very important question to ask you. Will you marry me?"
Without a word, she dropped her left hand so that I could slide the ring onto her finger. Once it was there, she stared at it with wide, stunned eyes for so long that I began to get worried. The ring was on her finger, but she had yet to give me an answer. Before actually proposing, I had told myself that she wouldn't say no, but now that I was in it, I wasn't so sure. I cleared my throat, and when she still didn't speak, I decided that I should.
“Jess? Did I make a mistake?”
“Are you kidding? No! Oh my God, Drew. The answer is yes! Absolutely, no doubts, a hundred times yes!”
I stood up and Jess wrapped her arms around me, her mouth finding mine. My dick twitched as it became instantly hard. Her kiss was passionate and I could tell she wanted me just as bad as I wanted her. I pushed her gently back onto the bed. I laid down next to her and began to kiss her. With one hand, I opened her towel, revealing her wet, naked body and moved my hands around, feeling every single inch of her curves. I paused just before my hand touched her pussy and then I began to rub her clit. First up and down and then in circles.
She moved her body, grinding against my hand. I claimed her mouth once more, our tongues intertwining. She let out soft moans against my lips that made me go crazy. I stopped kissing her. My dick was throbbing, itching to feel the inside of her.
“I want you.” I said to her.
She spread her legs a little more and looked at me. She bit her lip, I knew she wanted me just as bad. I slid a finger down and then inside of her tight pussy. I moved my finger in and out of her pussy.
I knew she was getting close and instead of stopping her from feeling her pleasure I moved my finger in and out of her faster, until finally she started letting out a series of moans. I knew I had made her come.
“I want inside of you now.” I said when she calmed down. She scooted back onto the bed to reposition herself and I climbed on top of her. I sucked and nibbled on each of her perfect, pink, round nipples. She moved beneath me, letting me know she was turned on once again. I pulled back and sat up, shifting to my knees. Jesse spread her legs before me and I moved to push myself inside of her.
I felt her tight pussy wrap around my cock, it felt amazing.
“Oh fuck.” I moaned. Her pussy was perfect and drove me crazy. I could never get enough of it.
I put each of her legs on my shoulders and held her ankles. I began thrusting harder and deeper inside of her. My cock filling up every inch of her.
