It was almost a week before Twyla came back to him. Hunk grabbed her aournd the
waist ans swung her around.
"Well?" he
asked.
"My tour of duty is over. I'm free to do as I please
now."
"What have you decided?"
"I'm going to marry you, remember?"
Her smile suddenly faded, "Unless you have changed your
mind."
"No, I haven't but
I thought you had."
"You silly guy." She hugged him tightly and kissed
him lightly on the cheek.
"I love you."
"I love you
too."
They went back to Hunk's room to talk.
"So, where do you
want to go from here?' Twyla asked.
"Well, what about us getting married?
When do you want to do it and how is it going to work? Do you want something
simple or something fancy? I can't leave Arus, so what do you want to do? Live
at the Castle or get a small place in the village?
"I stay here in case
something happens that we need to pull the team together again but I don't want
to hold you down. You can come and go as you
please."
"Aw, that's
sweet of you, Hunk. I can understand your postition and I would like to take
active duty again. I can live here with you when I'm not on duty, we can have a
house in the village. I would like that very much."
Hunk hugged her
again. She hugged him back and kissed him deeply.
"So," She whispered in
his ear, running a finger down his neck. "Do you want to be traditional and wait
until our wedding
night?"
Hunk looked
uncomfortable for only a second. He brought her close and started to kiss her.
She responded
quickly.
"This will be
our special night."
Hunk moved her to the bed and let her sit down as he
got out of his clothes. Twyla watched only for a second before getting out of
her own.
As soon as Hunk had gotten in bed with her, she reached over and
turned out the light. She didn't want Hunk to see that she was scared when she
had caught a glimpse of
him.
But she wasn't about
to change her mind. Now was the best time to get the pain overwith that she knew
would come with having sex for the first time. That way she could enjoy herself
completely on their wedding
night.
She didn't want
anything to wreck that night and with the bad case of nerves she would have that
night she didn't want any screw ups. She had a lot of time to think about this
when she went on duty and knew in her heart that this was
right.
She felt him wrap
his big arms around her and pull her close.
"You scared?"
"Yes,
but that's beside the point." If he could see her face, it suddenly had a
startled expression on it. He was so relaxed, it made her feel comfortable
enough to admit that eventhough she hadn't planned on saying a
thing.
He moved over her
and she wrapped her arms around his neck. He kissed her deeply and she
responded. She buried her face in his neck and hugged him tightly.
She
gasped slightly when she could feel him start to penetrate. She moaned and felt
the tears start to streak her face. He was so huge. She didn't think she would
be able to handle
this.
"Just relax" Hunk
whispered, "The pain will go away soon."
"I know." Her voice was shaky.
She prayed it would be
soon.
When she could feel
him completely inside her, she bit her bottom lip and dug her nails into his
shoulders. Hunk winced but
understood.
It was only
after he had gotten settled into a good rythum, the pain had eased considerable
that she dared herself to
speak.
"I can't believe I
just gave myself to you."
"And I to you. I'm just sorry that I had to
hurt you so badly."
"I didn't think you'd be able to do it, I mean, go
all the way."
hunk kissed her deeply. He knew the pain had been intense
for her all the way. He could tell she was a small girl and for someone such as
her being a virgin was definately a
disadvantage.
He moved
quicker and his breathing got heavier.
"Oh Hunk, I love
you."
"I love you too."
He hugged her tightly, the time was getting close. He knew he was going to get
off.
Twyla gripped him
but he was surprised that he wasn't hurting her. He was startled when she
giggled as he got
off.
"Oh my love, what
wonders our bodies can create when we are together."
"Yeah, talk about
majic." Hunk lay down beside her.
"Oh you," She playfully slapped
him.
;"Look, I hope I
really dind't hurt you. You're not in pain or anything."
"You big softy.
I'll admit that I am a little sore and I do feel differently inside but that's
to be expected. That's normal. Next time we make love it might still hurt a
little but then again it might not, the more we do it the better it'll be.
Pretty soon we might even get rauchy in the sack, you never
know."
"I can't wait for
that."
Twyla cuddled herslef close to
him.
"I feel so
tired."
"I bet you're gonna be sore tin the morning
too."
"Most likely but
it'll be worth it."
"It will be becuase we love each other and that's all
that matters. No regrets. At least, I hope there won't be,
right?"
But Twyla never
heard him becuase she had fallen asleep.
