Read Any Good Books Lately?

Mary thought this day would never come, but it was finally here! Her wedding day!

She wore a simple white gown that her mother had helped her pick out. Her long black hair was swirled up into a loose bun, with a golden tiara resting atop it. She decided not to wear her glasses. Karen helped her with makeup, and the bouquet that her father had made actually looked good, toy flowers intermingled with moondrops. She had sighed in relief when she saw it didn’t have weeds in it.

Ann was her closest friend in town, and was serving as her maid of honor. Gray didn’t really have any friends, but his closest acquaintance was Cliff, so he was the best man. Mary giggled when she wondered to herself if Claire might feel just a little twinge of upset at seeing her husband standing at the altar with her former rival, even if it was totally innocent.

The day went by so fast. Before she knew it, she was walking down the aisle towards Gray. Cliff had talked him out of wearing his trademark hat, thank goodness. He wore a simple black suit lent to him by Doctor. Poor Doctor, Mary thought to herself. He’s turning into a tuxedo rental shop lately. As she reached the altar and stood beside him, she realized he looked like he was going to pass out. He was sweating profusely, and looked almost ill. Mary looked at him with concern and leaned in to whisper “Are you okay?” Gray nodded, still looking terrible. “It was just really hot in the back room. I’ll be okay,” he weakly smiled back at her.

The ceremony began. Mary gazed at Gray during the ceremony, praying that he wouldn’t faint. He started to look a little better as time passed. Finally, Carter pronounced them man and wife, and Gray kissed Mary sweetly. They turned to walk down the aisle. Since Mary was usually the one who played organ at weddings, there was a little scramble to figure out who could do it for her. Karen stepped up to the challenge, assuring Mary that she knew how to play, and would practice before the ceremony.

Mary and Gray paused before taking their first step, waiting for the music to begin. Mary glanced over at the organ, where Karen seemed to be struggling with how to operate it. Mary groaned inwardly as she realized Karen probably practiced on the piano in the bar while she was drinking, and had never actually operated an organ before. Finally, a few notes came out of the organ, and Mary and Gray began walking. The music stopped abruptly, causing them to slow down, wondering whether or not they should stop and wait or keep going. They decided to keep going, and the music started up once again, coming out in strange, slightly flat notes and sounding altogether terrible. Mary just smiled the best she could, while Gray couldn’t hide the look of disbelief on his face. Mary glanced at him and reflected that she was glad no one was taking pictures of their walk down the aisle together. They would make for horrible pictures, her with a fixed, fake smile on her face and Gray looking confused.

They made it out into the sunshine, and gleefully headed towards the inn, happy to get away from the sound of Karen’s “music.”

Their reception was wonderful. Everyone was there, and they ate, drank, and talked happily. Karen came up and apologized profusely for her mistakes, saying (as Mary had guessed) that she couldn’t figure out how to work the organ. Mary smiled and brushed it off as no big deal. Karen smiled apologetically once more and went to the bar to get hammered.

Mary’s parents took pictures of the two of them, Gray fidgeting nervously. “I hate getting my picture taken,” he whispered to Mary. “It’ll be over soon,” she whispered back.

And it was. The whole reception was a blur. When it was over, Gray and Mary walked happily, hand in hand, to their new apartment. Mary would be seeing it for the first time, and she was excited. They arrived at the library and unlocked the door. Gray paused for a moment. “Do I carry you over this threshold?”

Mary giggled. “I don’t know.”

Gray shrugged. “Well, better safe than sorry,” he said as he hoisted Mary up into his arms, eliciting a delighted squeal from her. They crossed the threshold together, and then he carefully placed her back on her feet. They mounted the steps, and were soon upstairs. Gray flipped on the light switch, and Mary gasped. It was totally different than the last time she had seen it. It had been a dusty mess, full of forgotten furniture and cobwebs.

But Gray had managed to clean it up marvelously. He and Gotz had converted the main room into an open style kitchen/dining room/living room. The small, pristine kitchen sparkled, brand new appliances and utensils waiting to be used. The dining room area had an oak table and four matching chairs. The living room part had a large, comfortable looking tan sofa, a coffee table, and a television. Mary had marveled for a while and wandered around touching everything, murmuring happily to herself. Gray grinned and took her by the hand. He showed her the bathroom they had installed. It was small but lovely, with a tub shower in it.

He then took her to the bedroom. A king size bed centered the room, with a plum covered comforter on top. The furniture was sparse, but Gray assured her that they could move the rest of her stuff from her room at her parents’ house tomorrow. Mary nodded happily, turning to Gray with tears in her eyes. “It’s all so perfect,” she whispered, throwing her arms around his neck.

Gray kissed her warmly and looked in her eyes. “I love you.”

Mary smiled up at him. “Oh, I love you too, Gray. So much.”

Gray hoisted her up and carried her over the threshold of their new bedroom. He carried her over to the bed and set her down there. Mary giggled. “Oh, silly. You have to help me out of this dress first.”

Gray laughed sheepishly and helped her to her feet, then unzipped her gown. He eased it off of her, leaving her wearing nothing but a white bra and panties. She reached over to him and slid his jacket off. Her small hands worked at his tie, getting it undone. Then she unbuttoned his shirt and removed that. She set all the pieces of clothing carefully to the side, remembering that they were borrowed. She then unbuckled his belt and removed his pants, with his help. All that remained was his boxers, but she left those on for the time being. They looked into each other’s eyes and kissed, softly at first, then with more passion.

Gray pushed Mary gently down onto the bed, and kissed down her neck. He reached behind her and unhooked her bra, something he had gotten rather skilled at with practice. He removed it and kissed her there as well. Mary sighed happily. Gray layered himself on top of her and rubbed against her. She could feel his hardness pressing into her, and she moaned and wrapped her legs around him. He squeezed her thighs and breathed lustfully into her ear. She began tugging at her own panties, desperate to remove them. He grinned slyly and helped her, then removed his own boxers.

He froze as he realized something. He uttered a four letter word. Mary looked up at him. “What’s wrong?”

He sighed, disappointed. “I forgot to bring a condom.”

Mary looked him deeply in the eyes. “It’s all right…”

Gray just stared at her, thinking she meant it was all right to just not consummate their marriage right now. But as she made no effort to get out from under him, it slowly dawned on him that wasn’t what she meant. He swallowed hard and looked at her. “Are—are you sure?”

Mary wrapped her arms around his neck. “We’re married now, right?”

Gray nodded, and then sighed happily. “Oh Mary…” His body tingled as he thought about entering her for the first time with nothing between them. She parted her thighs even more to invite him, and he readied himself. He pressed just the tip of his hardness into her wetness, and moaned in sheer delight at how good it felt right on his skin. Then he plunged in, and practically screamed at how amazing that felt. He had to bite his lip and really try to not explode right then and there.

Mary moved underneath him, and he started moving himself. They worked a steady rhythm against each other’s bodies, both unable to speak from the overwhelming sensation. He could sense that Mary was close, so he pressed himself against her and stayed close to her body. Her body tensed up, then relaxed as huge waves of pleasure flooded over her. That was just what Gray was waiting for, and he let himself go, thrusting into her furiously as he exploded, spilling inside of her for the first time.

His thrusts finally slackened off, and he carefully pulled out of her and rolled on his back. She quietly reached for a tissue and took care of that, then snuggled up against him. “That was…that was just amazing, Mary,” he said, still struggling to catch his breath. A look of worry then crossed his face. “Does this mean you’re going to get pregnant?”

Mary blushed. “Well, not necessarily. I can go to the Clinic and get on the pill now so that we don’t have to use condoms any more. I just figured, well, since we’re married, it would be okay to take the risk. It wouldn’t be so scandalous if I did…get pregnant now.”

Gray nodded. “You’re right. I mean, I do…want you to have my children,” They both blushed. “But, it would probably be best if we got to enjoy it just being the two of us for a while, right?” Mary nodded in agreement.

Gray sighed happily again. “I love you, Mary, more than anything in the world.”

Mary kissed him and held him tightly. “I love you too, Gray. More than anything in the world!”

Author’s Note:

Sooo… Should this be the end for our shy little couple? I’m ending it here for now, since everything is wrapped up nicely, but I may pick up on them again. I’m trying to get Hello Nurse! finished as well. When I’m done with that, I’ll either have thought of new adventures for Gray and Mary, or maybe even Cliff and Claire! Or who knows, another couple. Popuri and Kai’s travels? Ann and Harris (boooring)? I am not writing about Karen and Rick’s kinkiness though. That will have to remain behind closed doors.

What do you guys think? Leave me reviews and let me know.
