The second suitcase packed, Emma plopped down on the bed. I finished looking around the hotel suite, making sure we weren't forgetting anything. Main room - check. Bathroom - check. Balcony - check. Bedroom - check. Just our bags in here. And Emma, of course. I smiled at her. It was hard to believe our honeymoon was coming to an end. Only an hour or so before the taxi would be here to take us away from our little island paradise, to our flight back to the real world.
I sat down on the edge of the bed next to Emma. She smiled at me. Still beautiful as ever. Chin-length blonde hair, barely blue eyes, soft skin, petite and pale. She wore shorts and a spaghetti-strap shirt for the flight home. I still couldn't believe she was my wife. I smiled back at her, and held her hand.
Our fingers intertwined for a few seconds; then, as expected, she slid her hand out of mine. I let her slide her hand up, along my hand, to my wrist. Emma gripped my wrist, loosely at first, sliding her hand this way and that around it playfully, smiling at me softly. Suddenly, she tightened her grip on it, squeezing my wrist just a bit firmly at first, then gradually squeezing more, until her grip was almost painful. In private, this was often our way of holding hands. Her elbow nestled in mine, forearm along mine, her hand locked onto my wrist. I knew, at this point, I'd better be looking directly at Emma's eyes, and absolutely nowhere else.
Emma loosened her grip a little. It wasn't much, hardly noticeable, as she held my gaze.
"Was it everything you expected, Chris?"
"Yes, Emma. Well, yes. For the most part it was."
"For the most part? What wasn't?"
"I don't know, Emma. Almost everything was."
It was hard finding exact answers while holding Emma's unwavering gaze. Her face was soft and cute, but she had a curious stare that let me know she meant business.
"Just maybe, well Emma..."
"We did everything we planned, right?"
"Yes, Emma. We did. And it was all wonderful."
"And we loved being together."
"Of course, Emma."
I leaned in and nuzzled her.
"Your behavior was perfect. Well, for the most part." She smiled, and I laughed. Then we both laughed. "Seriously, Chris, your behavior was fine. I never even had to get the paddle out of the suitcase."
I felt a sudden chill, and took a quick breath.
"You would've paddled me on our honeymoon?"
"Absolutely. If you'd done something to deserve it. Why'd you think we packed it?"
"Just as a threat? To keep me on my best behavior?"
"Threats only work if you follow through, Chris. I always follow through." She tightened her grip.
"I know you do, Emma." She smiled at me, keeping a tight grip on my wrist. Yes, I knew she did. It was one of the many reasons I loved her.
"Sex? It was wonderful, wasn't it? You got to see me naked, Chris..."
"It WAS wonderful Emma. It's just..."
"What is it?"
"Well..."
The problem was hard to describe. I didn't want to complain, or sound ungrateful. I did have a wonderful time. And I knew our honeymoon would be a bit unconventional. After all, our relationship wasn't exactly conventional. But that's what we both loved about it.
Our wedding night, before we even left for this island, was a treat. Emma let me see her in a nightgown, a sexy gown, which made her look incredible without being too revealing. We slept in a bed together for the first time ever. Emma slowly undressed me and enjoyed the sight of me, while letting me just feel the contours of her body, through her gown. It was an amazing experience. No more than that.
"Save it for our island," Emma had whispered to me, always patient, as I snuggled with her, trying to fall asleep naked cuddled against her silky gown.
Arriving at the resort we had unpacked, then had dinner. Later, that night in bed, Emma again undressed me, and let me enjoy the feeling of her hands all over me, as wel as the sight of her in a slightly skimpier gown. Just slightly. And after all that, after kissing tenderly for awhile, I stretched out naked on top of the covers in the pitch black, complete darkness, while I was allowed to listen to Emma, right beside me, her hand beneath her gown, masturbating herself to orgasm.
Emma had fallen asleep contented, face in my shoulder. I lay there, trying to sleep, amazed that I'd been allowed to be in Emma's presence during her pleasure. It had been the first time. I tried to bask in the glow of her pleasure, tried to let her pleasure be my pleasure, as Emma had taught me. Eventually, I did fall asleep.
Over the next days, we enjoyed exploring the island by day, each other by night. And sometimes, to be honest, by day. By the second day, Emma treated me to a little show, removing her gown and letting me see her in just a bra and panties. And that night, I lay naked beside her, watching her masturbate in the soft light. This had been the first time I'd been allowed to watch. It stunned me how beautiful she was when she pleasured herself.
The next night she was guiding my hand to that precious spot, her hand on mine, as she let me bring her pleasure - through her silk panties, of course. A night later, I got the privilege of seeing Emma completely naked, little by little over the course of hours. That sort of experience is something that has to be savored. And late at night, she let me touch her everywhere, and bring her to climax with my hand - guided, of course, by hers.
The following two days and nights, it seemed, were spent entirely with Emma's hands on the back of my head, teaching me exactly how to please her orally. After being gradually introduced to her body, this seemed like such an indulgence, getting to know the contours of Emma so intimately, her smell, her taste, her response. Hearing her gasp, hearing Emma scream in pleasure, I tried to imagine the feeling, to bask in her orgasm. Which brought me back to the present, our conversation, my attempt to answer her question. I tried my best to be honest.
"Well, Emma, everything was absolutely wonderful. And I knew this week would be completely about your pleasure, and about me enjoying your pleasure. I've loved pleasing you. I do love it. And I'm trying to make your pleasure my pleasure, and I'm trying to be completely satisfied with that. I know that I'll HAVE to be completely satisfied with that most of the time. Almost all of the time. And I'm fine with that. But this is our honeymoon, Emma. And I just thought that maybe, just once on THIS trip, I might get to experience, well, you know..."
