moan for uncle 6 by Terry Towers

song couldn't have been more perfect.
    On hearing the tune beginning, Grant quickly turned his head to watch her, a soft smile touching his lips which grew wider with each step she took closer to him. She was surprised to see that their wedding had drawn a small crowd of hotel guests. They kept their distance, but watched attentively.
    "I love you," he mouthed to her.
    She bit back the tears, but one managed to escape. One single shimmering tear made its way down her cheek as she closed the distance between them. "I love you," she mouthed back," causing the sparkle to come alive in his eyes as he regarded her appreciatively. There was so much love in his look that it made her weak at the knees and she had to fight to keep walking.
    As she took the final steps towards him, he extended his hand. Nikki passed the flowers to Cynthia who had taken her place as maid of honour to Nikki's left and then took Grant's hand. She was amused to find his hand was clammy when he took hers and gave it a light squeeze. Was Grant nervous? She found herself amused with the thought and would have teased him had the ceremony not begun.
    Grant Rivers nervous. Now she'd seen everything.
    "Dearly beloved, we are gathered here..."

Chapter 6

    With the ceremony and pictures taken, Grant and Nikki, still in their wedding clothes, were led to the banquet and show area. They were placed at the small two person head table overlooking the large empty lot used for the performances and dancing. Surrounding the show area were tables filled with other guests and tikki torches were the only source of light, giving the whole area a soft yellow glow.
    "The Escape Resort is proud to present to you the guests of honour for the evening. The beautiful, newly married couple, Mr and Mrs Grant Rivers!" A voice from the hidden speakers called. Grant stood pulling her to her feet beside him.
    Nikki's cheeks reddened at the cheers and applause of hundreds of strangers as she stood by her husband. Looking up at him, he seemed unfazed by the attention.
    "I think everyone here would love to see this handsome couple kiss," the voice announced.
    Oh sweet lord! Here? In front of everyone?
    Grant gave her hand a quick tug and with a soft surprised squeal she fell against his hard chest. He grinned, his eyes shining mischievously. "Shall we give the audience what they want, Mrs Rivers?"
    Her shyness fell away as she looked into his loving eyes. "I think that's a fine idea, Mr Rivers." She slipped her hands around his neck as he lowered his mouth to hers and wrapped his arms around her, pulling her tightly against him. The cheering increased, along with a series of whistles and whoops from the onlookers as they deepened the kiss. A shiver rushed down her spine as his tongue slipped past her lips to caress hers.
    The sounds of the crowd around them disappeared into a soft lull as she gave herself to him and the passion behind his sweet lips. This strong, courageous, beautiful man was hers. All hers.
    When Grant finally pulled away she was left breathless, her heart thumping wildly against her chest. She looked up at him, her eyes glazed over with her love and desire for him. "Do you suppose they'd notice if we snuck off," she teased.
    Laughing Grant looked out at the hundreds of eyes glued to them. "I think they might. Besides, you need to eat. You'll need the energy for the night I have planned for you, Mrs Rivers." Walking behind her he motioned for her to sit and pushed her chair in for her once seated.
    A soft tremor rocked through her and a stirring began between her legs at the thoughts of what he may have planned. Grant was seating himself when the voice over the speakers sounded again. "As most of you are aware tonight is Hawaiian night so we have a great dinner and show planned."
    Nikki glanced quickly over at Grant who gave her a smile and nod.
    "The food is now ready so our waiting staff will take you all table by table to the buffet. Please wait until your table is called
