We believe that this story belongs in the Loving Wives category, although to be honest, the lady in this story is not yet married, but soon will be.
Sam and Julia have been together as boyfriend and girlfriend for quite a long time but still live in separate apartments, though often sleeping together. They should have been engaged to be married by now, but Sam is reluctant to propose marriage due to memories of his parents' toxic relationship, and eventual divorce, when he was much younger. He was frightened to make the commitment in case it went wrong. Julia was frustrated, she loved Sam and wanted to marry him, if only he would ask her.
Sam and Julia had a large group of friends. Some married some still single.
It was Christmas time and several parties had been arranged with their friends.
The first party was at Julia's apartment, and Sam would be sleeping there with her after it was over.
When Sam put his bag in her bedroom, he was amused to see a small Christmas tree standing on the dressing table. It was decorated with a dozen condoms in foil packets hanging from the branches on silver threads.
The condoms would be necessary, as Julia was not on the pill.
The 30 or so party guests arrived, and the party was going well. Sam and Julia were mingling with the guests, making sure they had drinks and food and were enjoying themselves. Some were dancing, some were chatting. There was a bunch of mistletoe hanging from the ceiling, inviting traditional Christmas kisses underneath it. Sam noticed that Julia was under the mistletoe, enthusiastically kissing his best friend, John.
Sam continued to circulate, doing his job as co-host. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Julia and John together by the door of the crowded room. Looking across, he saw them open the door and go out. Just as she went out, Julia looked across the room at him and caught his eye. She gave a small, tentative smile, and went out of the room with John. Sam felt a sinking feeling in the pit of his stomach, but then dismissed it. John and Julia were old friends as well, and in fact, John had introduced Julia to Sam a couple of years ago.
Sam carried on with his hosting duties and danced with two or three of the other women there. Then he realised that he hadn't seen Julia for half an hour at least. As he looked around for her, she came in through the door, and a little later John came back into the room as well. Sam wasn't sure if they'd both been out of the room together all of the time, then someone spoke to him, and diverted his attention, but not before he noticed that Julia's hair, which was pinned up, was beginning to come undone. He also noticed that she was a little flushed, and bright eyed, he hoped she hadn't drunk too much.
After the party had finished, and all the guests had gone, Sam and Julia cleared up a bit, then they decided to complete it in the morning and went to the bedroom. Sam noticed that the bed was a bit rumpled, but then many of the guests had left their coats and bags on the bed earlier.
As they got into bed, Sam saw that three of the condom packets were missing from the Christmas tree, and the silver threads were dangling empty. When he mentioned this to Julia, she said that they'd fallen off, and she'd put them in the bedside cabinet drawer, she would hang them on the tree again in the morning. Sam took one of the condoms out of the drawer and put it under his pillow, so it would be ready if they had sex during the night.
Sam asked Julia what she had been doing with John, when she'd been away from the party for so long during the evening. She said, "Why does it matter?" He said, "You're my girlfriend, and I am entitled to know." She said, "Look, I love you to bits, but you don't own me, and you have no rights over me. Now I am tired, and I just want to go to sleep."
Sam lay still and thought for a minute, he loved Julia and knew that he wanted her with him forever, and he should have made that clear before. Now he was worried that he might be losing her to his friend.
He turned to Julia, pulled her close to him and said, "Julia darling, I love you more than anything in the world, and I want you to be my wife. Will you marry me?"
Julia looked him in the eyes and said, "Yes of course I will darling, I've been waiting so long for you to ask me."
They began to kiss and held each other tight. Their kiss, was at first, soft and sensual, and then became passionate. "Make love to me, Sam," Julia said, "Make love to me all night. I want you to make me yours for always."
Sam took the condom packet from under his pillow, but he dropped it back into the drawer when Julia said, "No, not tonight, darling, I think it'll be safe tonight, don't use a condom. I want you inside me bareback, and I want to feel you filling me up with your come. I want to feel it leaking out of me after we've finished."
They kissed again, then Sam rolled Julia onto her back. He began to run his hands over her body, and every part of her that felt the touch of his hands, then felt the touch of his lips, as he kissed and licked his way down her chin, her neck and her shoulders, until his mouth closed on her nipples one after the other. He felt her nipples grow hard on his tongue as he sucked and nibbled on them, and she started to moan softly.
Reluctantly leaving her nipples, he continued to run his hands, his lips and his tongue down to her belly, then on down to her mons and her inner thighs.
Julia parted her legs and pulled up her knees, so that her labia began to be opened up. Already, her love slit was shiny with her love juice, and he could smell the musk of her arousal.
