finish our celebration. What do you think?”
After another long passionate kiss she replied, “I think we should celebrate all night long. What do you think?”
Scott kissed her forehead again and replied, “I think we have a plan.”
As he began to stand up, she reached out her hand to stop him. Scott sat back down as she put her arms around his neck. Her expression suggested she had some reservations and she was about to express them. “Scott, I am not like this with other guys. I don’t make myself this available to other people like I have with you.”
He knew from his personal experience and from the comments other people had made to him that Michelle was a reserved person who did not open her life to many people. In some ways, she was very guarded, but for some reason trusted him from the beginning. Scott could easily sense the discomfort she was experiencing in feeling she needed to explain herself.
He sat back down and took both of her hands. “I know who you are and I know you about as well as you know yourself. I know you trust me and I know trust doesn’t come easy for you. I know you were not like this with other guys because you and I have talked about this before.”
She had a look of determination as she looked directly at him. “I don’t want you to misunderstand anything I’m about to say. I want the physical part of our relationship. I want you to kiss me, hold me, touch me, and make love to me, but I think it is going to be awkward for me for a little while. This is new for us.”
Scott watched her face while making a suggestion he thought would put her more at ease. “We have been dating each other for ten years only we didn’t have the physical part of that type relationship. We don’t have to celebrate tonight. We can celebrate on July 5th, August 3rd or November 28 th . We move at our own speed and only when we’re both ready. It’s that simple.”
She started shaking her head back and forth slowly. “Wait a second, Scott. You and I just made a plan and we are going through with it tonight. I just don’t want you to be disappointed with me if I am not what you expect.”
He started smiling. “No, you wait a minute. First, it is entirely possible that I will not live up to your expectations. Beyond that, we were just at the beach a few days ago and you were wearing your rather small two-piece suit. I may not have seen you completely unwrapped, but I have a pretty good idea about what’s in the package.”
Michelle ’s response was both assertive and playful as she started grinning. “I sure hope you have some idea about the contents of my package because I made it about as obvious as I could without doing a strip show for you.”
Scott thought about her comment for a moment. “At the time, I thought you were still getting married to Tom so I didn’t know it was your intent to be so obvious. But I can assure you, I didn’t miss anything.”
Her expression became more serious. “Tonight just before we went into the barn, you said you wanted to talk to me. What did you want to talk about?”
“When you and I were at the beach on Monday, you kept making comments expressing your doubts about you and Tom. You made a few less than respectful comments about him and I realized that something was wrong and that you weren’t just nervous about getting married. You seemed almost angry with him. I was going to suggest you postpone your plans and I was also going to tell you how I felt about you.”
She began to share her thoughts about him in a way Scott had not expected. “I was then, and I still am angry with him. But, I am just as angry with myself. When I first came home from college in May, the more time you and I spent together, the more I realized he was not the right person for me.”
Michelle could tell from his expression that he wanted to hear more. She chose to change her explanation. “I can show you my heart and soul and tell you my deepest secret. He wasn’t
