Chapter 2
                          
Waking up the next morning, I still feel Juan wrapped around me. I can't help but smile a little. I snuggle in closer to him and feel him tighten his arms around me tighter. I lay there for a little longer in his arms until I hear his soft snores again and I sneak out of his arms. I decide that if I am starting this chapter of being a wife, I will do it right. Sneaking into the kitchen in my sleep shorts and his shirt, I pull out the eggs, bacon and the things I need to make biscuits and get started. I start a pot of coffee too. I am so busy getting breakfast going that I don't hear Juan come to the kitchen door. "Morning babe." he says smiling the first real smile I have seen from him yet. I jump a little and smile softly and say "Morning Juan." He walks over to the counter as I pour him a cup of coffee as well as my own. "How'd you sleep?" he asked as he takes a sip of coffee. I look at him for a second and smile bigger. "I actually slept great. It's the first time I have slept all night in a long time. How about you?" I asked. "Better than I have in years." he says and he stands closer to me and seems like he wants to touch me. He reaches over and pulls me to him. Putting his arm around my waist and kisses me softly. "If you want to shower real fast, I will finish getting breakfast done." I tell him. "Okay baby." he smiles and heads down the hall to the bathroom.
                          
After his shower, he heads back to the kitchen as I am plating his food. I place the plate on the table with a glass of orange juice and then get my own. He takes a bite of food and says "This tastes great babe. Thanks." I smile and say "Can I talk to you about something?" He looks at me and says "You can talk to me about anything." I smile and say "I know you go by Juice at the clubhouse. Is it okay if I call you Juice when we are with everyone else and just call you Juan when we are alone?" He takes my hand and says "That's fine babe. But I get to call you babe, anytime I want." I laugh a little and say, "You have so far." and he laughs with me.
                          
I clean up the kitchen and get dressed and I ask "Do you have to be at the clubhouse today?" He says "Nope. I have a few days. You know. Honeymoon and all." We sit on the couch and he puts puts his arm around me and then asked "Is this okay?" I sit up and look at him and say, "Juan, I'm your wife. Please don't be afraid to touch me. I won't break and to be honest, it feels really nice when you do." He pulls me closer to him and kisses me softly before pulling me onto his lap. Pulling away he says "If it gets to be too much, tell me and I'll stop." I kiss him softly and say "Juan, make love to me. Please." He picks me up and carries me to our room and places me on the bed. Kissing me softly flows over to kissing more feverently. That moves over into shedding clothes and before he enters me, he kisses me and whispers "You are so beautiful." He enters me and thrusts in and out slowly and eventually speeds up the pace. I start feeling myself falling over the edge and he follows right after me. He still hovers over me for a minute before kissing me softly and asking, "Are you okay?" I smile at him softly and say "Never been better." He lays down beside me and we both catch our breath but this time, instead of me worrying about if I did something wrong, he reaches over and takes my hand and intertwines our fingers. We lay like that for a few more minutes before he leans over me and says "Get dressed. Let's go for a ride." I nod and get up and start getting dressed like he told me to.
                          
Half an hour later, we are out the door. He hands me a helmet and starts putting his on. "Gemma bought it. Said you would need it." he says as I get on behind him. I wrap my arms around his waist and he pulls me tighter against him. "You ready?" he asked and I said "Oh yeah." We pull out of the driveway and next thing I know, we are leaving Charming. I had never been out of Charming. Like I said before, I stayed at home and didn't leave the house unless I had to. We drive for a little while and he pulls down this gravel road. When he comes to a stop and we get off, he takes my hand and says, "I want to show you something." We walk down a narrow path to the river. Sitting on one of the rocks on the edge, he helps me up and pulls me into his side. I have noticed that he is a very affectionate person and I am really starting to like that. "I like to come here to think. Like when my mind won't shut off." he says. "It's peaceful here." I tell him. I see why he likes it here. We sit for a little while in silence and I asked "Are you okay with this arrangement?" He looks at me shocked and says "At first, I didn't know if I would be but after meeting you, I am. Believe me, I am. Are you?" he asked. "I was scared when Clay told me that I was getting married. I was so scared that I would disappoint you. Still am. I don't know how to be a wife. I had already resigned to the idea that I would be alone the rest of my life. But now, after meeting you and spending some time with you, I see why Gemma said you were a sweet one. I am really glad we are together." I tell him. He smiles wide and my heart melts. The butterflies that were in my stomach before are doing somersaults at the smile he is giving me. "Well, now that we are married, no matter what, we have each other." he says and I smile and says "No matter what."
