~Decorating the Newlywed - aka, 'Do [Her] Yourself'~
The smooth summer's breeze gave the day an almost magical feel as the sun set golden over the ocean horizon of the City of Taboo Dreams. The soft, unwinding of another productive, relaxing, and often illicit day would soon be slowly fading into the glow of the neon lights and street lamps as the night life awoke. As the sun set slowly, however, a large golden-red half-ball on the horizon, the gentle breeze stirred oh so lightly, gently teasing flags and leaves as it played across the vastness of the city of Shorehaven.
Smiling up at the red-orange sky as the bright red Cadillac drove leisurely down the street with the top down, Mrs Shelley Winters couldn't help but feel a tingle of magic run through her luscious 27-year-old newlywed body as she closed her eyes and let the wind stream through her long, wavy, dark brunette hair, relishing in the soft melodies the radio played and the feel of the whole romantic atmosphere of the end of another perfect day.
Opening her large dark-brown eyes, Shelley turned with a loving smile to look at her new husband, the man of her dreams, as he sat driving beside her.
Hayden Winters. He was as stunning as the first moment Shelley had laid eyes on him five years ago. With his ruggedly attractive face, his styled light brown hair, his piercing green eyes, his fit and toned body and that entrancing smile that had won her over from across the room when their eyes had first met, Hayden always made her feel so warm inside. He made her feel safe, and he made her feel loved. Of course, he made her feel a lot of other things too, especially with his long seven and a half inch dick - oh that had made her feel a whole lot over the honeymoon they had just returned from.
That was why they were driving now, Shelley thought as she smiled deeper as Hayden looked over to her warmly, that stunning smile spreading his lips. Not his thrilling cock, of course, but the fact that they had just returned from their honeymoon. They had only been back in Shorehaven a couple of days, but the house they had been considering buying had finally become theirs the day before they were due to return, and so they had spent most of their time back finalising all of the paperwork with the agents, though most of it had already been done prior to, and had just received the key to their dream home that afternoon.
So, after a long day, the two newlyweds were finally on their way to see their new house for the first time, the home they had planned to start their family in, which they had already begun trying for on the honeymoon. Shelley couldn't wait, she had seen the house a couple of times before, but this time it was actually theirs. All theirs. Now they could finally walk in and feel that they had a home, instead of having to stay with Hayden's parents.
Leaning over, Shelley kissed her new husband firmly on the cheek, his new-day growth of stubble teasing her soft lips before she rested her head on his shoulder. Hayden responded by placing his arm around her caringly as the pair continued on their way through Gainborough driving ever closer to the beginning of the rest of their lives, and the start of their dream.
"Can you believe the house is all ours?" Shelley asked contentedly, her fingers twirling around his as she watched the houses and cars pass by in the romantic light of the setting sun.
"All ours." Hayden replied warmly, squeezing her softly and bringing a smile to the young wife's pretty face.
"I want to decorate the front room in white." She said, envisaging in her mind how it would look when it was finished. That room had stolen her heart the moment she had first laid eyes on it. "You know the one with the big French doors?"
Hayden smiled and nodded, he had heard her tell him what she wanted in every room of the house ever since the drive back from their first viewing, still he listened as if this was all brand new to him.
"Oh, it will look amazing in the summer, especially when the sun sets." She continued, picturing the room in the current light.
"So long as the lounge has the Plasma on the wall and the marble grey below the dado rail, you can do what you want with the rest of the house." He replied, and Shelley smiled deeper to herself.
She would let Hayden think it was his idea to have the lounge decorated that way, it kept him happy, though she knew it was as much her idea as his, and it kept him out of her hair when it came to deciding on how the rest of the house would look. She loved him with every bit of her heart, but bless him, he had no artistic talent for matching colours or setting things out to look attractive.
"So you won't mind my idea for the bedroom then?" She teased and grinned as her husband took the bait.
"Well..." He began defensively, though with a large grin...he knew he had already lost that battle a long time ago.
And so the newlywed couple continued their discussion, with no new developments on what Shelley had already decided, though Hayden was getting slightly better with his suggestions, as they drove on, turning to ascend the hill that led to where their new house awaited them.
As the car turned and pulled onto the driveway, Shelley felt a flutter of excitement and pride flood through her as her large dark brown eyes fell once more on the house of her dreams.
It was a large bungalow, situated on the top of a large hill in Gainborough, in one of the most beautiful neighbourhoods this side of Shorevale Heights, and within the magical glow of the setting sun, the place really seemed like a picturesque fantasy come true.
The moment the car stopped, with a wide, bright smile, Shelley excitedly jumped out and half-ran to the front door leaving Hayden to try to catch up to her with an amused chuckle, though she did wait for him to reach her before she actually turned the key and pushed the door open with a childish grin.
The house's front door let in to the bungalow's long main hallway directly in front and two smaller passageways leading both left and right of the front door. Those two were almost entirely the windows of the front of the house, allowing a flood of the deepening red light to bathe the undecorated corridors in a lush, warm glow, painting the walls of the first rooms either side of the hallway in a glorious light. When the estate agent had first told them that the two front rooms weren't actually connected to the front wall of the house, but instead stood a few feet back, both Shelley and Hayden had been dubious about the design, not to mention how it would look. However, after first seeing the place, and how the windows gave the space an almost 'gallery' feel to it that welcomed those who entered to journey deeper into the ever-more amazing layout, the two of them had known they had found their perfect home.
And now, as she stood there in the soft glow of the setting sun, letting her eyes take in that gallery area and the first hall that led into their new house, Shelley knew they had made the right decision.
Closing the door behind them, Shelley could feel Hayden's smile, as deep as hers, as he wrapped his arms around her waist and she leaned back against him, her eyes glowing with pure excitement and happiness. This place was it. It was going to be their home; their own home for them and their children, which they planned on having as soon as possible now...well, as soon as they had decorated the place anyway.
Those thoughts brought both of the subjects to Mrs Shelley Winters' newly-married mind.
"This place is going to look so gorgeous when it's finished." She said warmly, resting back against her new husband's chest.
