I opened my eyes and saw Anne lying on her side looking at me lovingly with a sweet smile on her face. "How long have you been awake?"
"Long enough to get over feeling that yesterday was only a dream and convince myself that I'm the luckiest person in the world. I love you Carl. I love you so much that I feel like a little girl again; that everything is new and exciting and happening for the first time. I wish I could wake up like this for many years so I could find out just how much more I could love you each time I did it."
"We'll do it for as many days as we can Anne. It's not how long you love somebody but how deeply you love them. We'll go as deep as it is possible to go no matter how long that turns out to be. Now, before we get this day started, come closer and show me how much you love me."
She moved toward me and I wrapped my arms around her and kissed her. Love seemed to drip from her lips like honey. She felt warm and relaxed and sensual as her body molded to mine. There is no other feeling in the world like holding somebody who loves you, especially when they love you this much. How do people who start out loving each other end up hating each other? When do they lose this feeling? I was very thankful we would never have to experience it. We would be this much in love for the little time we had left, one small consolation in this tragedy.
She gently nudged me over on my back and slid on top of me rubbing her breasts against my chest. Her legs spread out so that mine were between them. "I'm going to lie here and kiss you and hold you until I feel that lovely cock of yours standing straight up between my legs and if it doesn't happen soon I'm going to move down and have a serious conversation with it."
"I don't think you'll need to resort to verbal or even oral intimidation although it does sound rather appealing. Getting a hard-on in the morning is not a difficult thing for me so you may commence the kissing and holding immediately."
She kissed me with so much emotion and passion that it made me feel like the times when I was very young and making out was limited to mostly kissing and a little touching. I felt her body get warmer and her nipples begin to harden. My cock kept them company and stiffened. "Where did you learn to kiss like this?"
"I was precocious when I was young. I liked sex but once I started working I sort of lost interest in it. I guess it was sort of a 'been there, done that' kind of thing so I put all my energy into making money. You know the song;
'It's all coming back to me now'
? Well that's what you're doing to me. '
If I touch you like this and if you kiss me like that; it was so long ago but it's all coming back to me.'
Oh Carl what a fool I was to think I didn't need this. '
If you'll forgive me all this, if I forgive you all that. We'll forgive and forget and it's all coming back to me now.'
"
She rose up when she felt my cock brush against her legs and reached between us to grasp it. She squeezed it and rubbed the head along her slit. I felt her wet desire as she placed the tip against her opening then pushed her hips down to engulf me to where her fingers were then removed her hand and finished impaling herself on me. She lay back down on me and began to slowly rock up and down on me as she slid my cock in and out of her wet vagina. She put her hands on my face and kissed me even more passionately than she had before as she completely immersed herself in making love to me. I extended my arms to put my hands on her ass cheeks and felt their amazing softness as they gently slid beneath my palms.
I closed my eyes and abandoned myself to the sensations of her wet cunt fucking my cock, my hands caressing her ass and the incredible intensity of her kisses. We were both caught up in this ancient dance, completely oblivious to anything but the joy of loving each other. We built up so slowly to our sexual peaks that I was barely aware of it when my cock began to spurt forth the liquid proof of our pleasure. She silently responded with tender pulsing squeezes as her climax washed over her like a wave. We came down just as slowly until her head slid down beside mine and rested on my shoulder.
"Carl can we wake up like this every day? I've never felt anything so soft and intimate and loving in my life. I had no idea love could be so wonderful, that it could whisper its great message into our souls and cover us like a beautiful white cloud. You're right; we are going deep aren't we? And it's only been one day."
"We can do whatever we want to every day. I'm already feeling the effects of not having to get up and go to work. This is as good as Viagra. You might have a little something to do with it too. I feel free for the first time since I was a child. I'm going to channel all my energy into loving you so we can go deeper and deeper into love. You and Sandy have provided me with this opportunity and I won't waste it. I will be totally devoted to you and to making you happy so when it's over I can take what we discover and share it with Sandy and our baby. Anne I promise you our child will grow up with love and she will know that it comes from you."
"Carl when I first asked you to do this all I really expected from it was sex and companionship. I thought you could keep me distracted enough not to go crazy with loneliness and fear but you've given me the real thing. Now I realize just how much I was asking for and I love you all the more for doing it. You've given me something to look forward to each day instead of dreading that I have one less day to live each time I wake up. I have no words to express how grateful I am to you."
"We have things to take care of so let's go take a bath and get started so we can get back to making love."
We decided to skip the bathing pool and bathed each other in the shower sprays mixing the washing with kissing and playing then got out and dried each other.
"What would you like for breakfast?"
"Can Anthony make us something?"
"He makes marvelous eggs Benedict."
"Perfect."
Anne called down for Anthony and asked him to have breakfast ready in 30 minutes and to send up a carafe of coffee as soon as possible. By the time we finished in the spa the coffee was waiting for us on the table in the bedroom. Melissa had brought it up so we could have it while we got dressed. I fixed us a cup and took it to her in her large closet. I placed it on her dressing table and kissed the back of her neck then headed off to the other closet to get dressed. When we arrived in the dining room the table was set with two places. Anthony was waiting for us and greeted us then excused himself to go get our breakfasts. Like the dinner the other night Anthony's breakfast was delicious and impeccably served. The hollandaise sauce was the best I had ever tasted.
When we had finished eating we went to Anne's office and she called her doctor and asked when we could come to discuss the progression of her illness. He said he could meet with us but he suggested we first contact someone named Julia Conway who worked for a hospice. She had a lot of experience with what people go through as they get towards the end but most people wait far too long to consult with her and urged us to call her and arrange a meeting now. Anne asked him to recommend a doctor for the IVF procedure and he told her he would get in touch with somebody and have them call as soon as possible.
Anne then called the number for Julia Conway and asked her how soon we could meet with her and she said she could do it Wednesday evening. She preferred a meeting at the home of the client so Anne suggested she come for dinner and asked her if she had any food preferences. She advised her that she was a vegetarian and that she appreciated the invitation and would be here at six-thirty.
Anne went to the Neiman Marcus web site and ordered two bottles of the body lotion I liked to be sent to Sandy then made a few more calls to deal with some of her business activities and interrupted one to take an incoming call from a Dr. Stephanie Martin. She turned out to be the In Vitro doctor and told Anne she could come to her office at one o'clock today and to be ready to begin the process because she had been briefed on the situation and was elevating Anne to emergency status and if she was prepared to do everything just as directed it would only take between 10 days and two weeks to harvest her eggs.
It was a little after ten and we had an appointment at eleven with Anne's personal attorney to sign the agreement for setting up the investment in the hedge fund for Sandy and me. After that we would stop at the bank and wire transfer the 100k to our checking account.
At ten-thirty Melissa had the car waiting for us and we left for the attorney's office. When we arrived, Anne told Melissa she could go back home, as all the other things we needed to do were close enough for us to walk. We would call her and tell her where to come get us when we had completed all our errands.
We walked in the door of the attorney's office a couple of minutes before eleven and were told to go straight in. He apparently knew very well how much Anne detested waiting. Anne introduced me to Walter Cooper, the lead partner in a very prestigious law firm, and we got down to business. Everything was arranged exactly as Anne had said. The agreement would be executed immediately upon receipt of an original death certificate. Anne and I signed the papers and made it all official.
Walter then said that he had also prepared a living will for Anne at her request detailing which medical procedures she did not want when her illness became incapacitating. It also stipulated that I would be the decision maker for her in regards to methods to prolong her life when she became unable to make those decisions for herself. There was also a power of attorney that would go into effect at that time giving me abilities to take care of her business transactions and last arrangements. I signed those documents as well and was told to keep copies of them until needed.
"Carl would you please wait out in the reception room for a few minutes? I have some other things I need to discuss with Walter before we leave."
I got up and shook hands and thanked him then left the room. In about twenty minutes Anne came out and said everything had been taken care of. We then headed for the bank where an officer transacted the wire transfer and told me the money would be available in less than an hour. I sent Sandy a text message to tell her to go online and check our bank account later this afternoon and appended a smiley face to the message and told her I loved her and to
'Laissez les bon temps rouler'
.
We had about an hour and a half before the appointment with Dr. Martin. Her office was only a ten-minute walk so we took a longer route to do some window-shopping. One of the stores we passed was an adult video store. I asked Anne if she had ever been in one before. She shook her head no.
