Chapter 3: Romance in a Motel Room

Matt and Sarah left the Dairy Shack in a giddy mood. Neither of them could believe their good fortune. Sarah was so glad to have seen Susan, and shocked that she had blessed her and Matt with a motel room for two hours. Her relief was evident by the huge smile on her face.

Matt smiled at his wife as he drove down the road. He knew she was excited about what lay ahead of them that night. If he was truthful with himself, he was also pretty giddy. He and Sarah had not had any quality "alone" time since their wedding night. He knew that if he and Sarah had told the truth to their parents, they wouldn't be in this predicament.

"I am so happy right now," Sarah said as Matt opened up her car door. Matt gently kissed her and asked "Why?" Sarah grinned and said, "I saw my friend tonight. She got to meet my husband and," Sarah paused and lowered her voice to a whisper, "I get to spend some quality time with my husband."

Matt grinned at her statement and leaned down and gave her a passionate kiss on the lips. Sarah pulled back and used the key to open the door. Matt reached down and picked her up and carried her over the threshold and laid another passionate kiss.

Sarah groaned when she realized she had left the key in the door. She reached over and pulled the key out of the door and quickly shut it and locked it. She placed the key in the pocket of her skirt. As she was doing this, Matt began pulling off her jacket. She turned and faced him simply wearing her sleeveless white top and long red skirt. Matt gently reached around her neck and undid the necklace. He laid it down on the table near the door. During all of this, they had had gotten themselves involved in a heavy make out session. Sarah groaned and whispered, "I love you so much, Matt".

Matt smiled and whispered, "I love you too, my wife."

Sarah reached down and started to pull of Matt's jacket. Once he realized what Sarah was doing, Matt pulled back and took it off the rest of the way for her. Sarah smiled at him and quietly began to undo the buttons on his shirt. As she was doing this, Matt began to slowly back them up toward the bed and they fell down on it with Sarah on top of Matt. Matt gently rolled them over so he could get his shirt off.

"I love you more than you know. A lot more than I can say... A lot more than you will ever know," Matt whispered as he met his wife's lips in a far more passionate kiss than the two of them had shared thus far.

Matt woke up in a strange place that he didn't recognize right off the bat. He also realized that he was holding his wife in his arms in a bed. He grinned at the thought of what had just happened. He and Sarah had only made love once or twice before this on their wedding night, but this was as close to perfection as he expected it to be. It was better than he remembered it was, in all honesty. He smiled when he noticed Sarah was waking up as well.

"Hi wife. Did you sleep well?" Matt asked and then tenderly kissed her forehead. Sarah smiled shyly and then leaned in to give Matt a tender kiss on the lips. Matt relished in the feel of his wife's lips on his and simply deepened the kiss. Sarah, wanting to talk, gently pulled back.

"I just wanted to say that was the best experience that I have ever had...more wonderful than words can describe. I so wish we weren't doing this in secret. I'm just glad that Susan figured out that we were married, so we could have this alone time," Sarah whispered.

"I know what you mean. I would love to have more opportunities like this, but I'm afraid my time may be more limited up until graduation. I've got to work as well, so who knows if we'll get any more quality time," Matt said.

"We may. I completely forgot to mention this earlier, but my parents are going out of town next week. My dad reminded me of it when I called him and told him that I was going to Dairy Shack with you. It's only for two days, but it still could mean some quality time for us," Sarah said smiling at the shock on Matt's face.

"What time is Susan supposed to be here?" Matt asked.

"11:30. Why?" Sarah asked, surprised at the abrupt change of conversation.

"I thought that's what you said. We need to get ready to go. It's already 11:15. We'll continue this conversation on our way to your house," Matt said as he climbed out of the bed. Sarah did the same and the two were ready and waiting when Susan pulled up. They handed Susan the key and then the two of them left heading for Sarah's house.

"I'm excited about the idea of your parents going out of town. I really am. I'm just going to have to figure out how to swing my staying over at your house with my parents," Matt said as he drove toward Sarah's house.

"I would think that telling your mom would be the best route for you to go. She seems to be the most supportive and understanding. I mean, after all, she did give you this ring to give to me," Sarah said and she eyed the ring that was now on her hand.

"You know what, you may be right. Once you get the dates confirmed, let me know," Matt said as he pulled in Sarah's driveway. The two unbuckled their seatbelts and began a nice session of making out and holding each other. The two of them finally pulled way from each other and then they got out of the car. Matt walked Sarah to her door and the two shared a final kiss before he left for the night.
