September
A year after
they kissed during a thunderstorm when James and Ada were on Beaumont Island for
a family wedding, they were to be married themselves though their nuptials were
to be in Pipershaven, but they did intend to honeymoon on Beaumont Island.
They bought a
house together in the suburbs of the town and James moved in a month before the
wedding but because Ava’s mother was a very strict Christian they weren’t
allowed to live there together until after the wedding, and it was a dictate
that they found difficult to ignore as her Aunty had a house in the same
cul-de-sac, and she was a very nosy woman and Ava was not a favourite of hers,
so reluctantly they had to honour it, for the most part at any rate.
It was early in
the morning when Ava arrived at the house, parking her car in a lane nearby and
walking the rest of the way, safe in the knowledge that she would reach the
door unseen, as she had seen her Aunt and Uncle leave in their car, to go
shopping.
Once inside
they embraced and one thing led to another and they spent most of the day in
bed in fact they would have been there longer had they not been woken by
lightning strikes and thunder claps, but they cuddled closer and the lightning
strikes got brighter and brighter and the thunder clapped louder and louder and
grew nearer and nearer until it was directly overhead and the thunder shook the
very fabric of the house, but they were making love again by then.
They would have
happily spent the rest of the day and the night together but alas she had to
go, however the problem was how to get her out of the house in broad daylight
without being seen, because her Aunt and Uncle were home again, and eagle-eyed
Aunt Mary would be casting a watchful eye in their direction.
By the time Ava
redressed, and they got downstairs it was early evening and although the
thunder and lightning had abated it was raining hard, but not just rain, it was
an absolute deluge.
“Crappy
weather” Ava cursed
“It’s
excellent” he said
“What?” she
exclaimed, “But it’s horrible”
“It’s perfect,
is what it is” he said and went into the utility and came out with a set of
waterproofs and a Golfing umbrella.
“If Aunt Mary
sees you in these, she’ll think you’re me” James said
“Is that the
umbrella we had our first kiss under?” she asked
“It is” he
replied “so don’t lose it because it’s special”
“It’s special
to me too” she said and kissed him
Having provided
Ava with the appropriate clothing they immediately hit upon a snag, because the
trousers didn’t fit over the skirts of her mid-dress, as it bunched up under
the waterproofs and made it look like she had a bustle.
“Well, you
don’t look much like me with a bum that big” he said
“Cheeky sod”,
she retorted and punched his arm, and he was laughing as he left the room.
When he came
back, he was carrying her decorating clothes, which consisted of a pair of
paint spattered leggings and a T-shirt.
“Oh, good
thinking” she said “You’re a sneaky man”
“I know but
it’s the least I can do in return for an afternoon of sin”
He declared and
she blushed crimson red, and then she removed the waterproof trousers and then
had to take her dress off.
“Don’t get any
ideas,” she said when she noticed him looking at her in her bra, pants and
tights.
“Well, you
could stay a bit longer” he suggested
“It’s not that
I don’t want to” she said quickly pulling on the leggings, “Another four weeks
and then it will be every night”
“I can’t wait”
he said as he watched her put on the T-shirt, then she pulled on the waterproof
trousers again they were a little on the large side and the waistband sat just
below her bust line.
Then she pulled
on the top over her head before slipping on her shoes.
“That’s going
to work” he said
“Is it ok?” she
asked
“Yes” He
replied “Now put your hood up”
She did as he
said, and it immediately obscured most of her face
“Perfect, you
look gorgeous”
“I will hurt
you” she threatened
After he had
kissed her goodbye he said
“Text me when
you get to the car”
“Ok” she
responded and kissed him again, then he turned the light off and she let
herself out into the rain, put the umbrella up, and off she went.
Meanwhile, with
the house in darkness, he went into the backroom and put the TV on, then after
five minutes he got a text
“Made it,” it
read “Love you”
James smiled
and typed a response
“I love you
too”
