 Chapter 26

   "Alone at last.  Shall we go and `relax'?" Jennifer asked and I laughed.
"What kind of relaxation did you have in mind?" I asked.  "Well, I'm pretty
stressed.  Maybe some kind of massage would help.  Could you do your
special massage - you know the one with that special tool you have."

   I laughed, picked Jennifer up in my arms and carried her into the
bedroom where I sat her on our bed.  Jennifer started to take her clothes
off but I stopped her and took on that task myself.  I reached down and
removed her shoes, then her stockings.  Once her feet were bare, I started
to massage them, knowing how much Jennifer likes having that done.

   Foot massage finished I took her hands and pulled her up to a standing
position.  Once she was standing, I undid her dress and slowly eased it
down off her body, kissing her as I did then helping her to sit back down
on the bed.  I reached out and undid her bra all the while remembering the
first time I did that, then pushed it off her shoulders and removed it
completely.  A gentle push and she was lying on the bed but with her feet
still on the floor.  I picked them up and with Jennifer's assistance got
her lying completely on the bed.

   I gazed at those wonderful breasts then leaned down to kiss them and
suck on her nipples.  All the while, my hands had been busy touching her
through her panties.  `Time to get rid of them,' I thought.  I let go of
her breasts and Jennifer, sensing what I wanted, lifted her bum up off the
bed so I could slide her panties down her legs and off completely.  I stood
up and gazed down at the vision of loveliness that was Jennifer.

   "I can never get enough of looking at you, my beautiful wife," I told
Jennifer.  I quickly undressed then knelt down beside Jennifer and resumed
my ministrations to her body.  It was obvious that Jennifer was becoming
very aroused.  One look at her body and the reddish flush of arousal and
the scent wafting up from her pussy told me Jennifer was ready.

   "Tonight is your night, my love," I said as I climbed up on the bed
beside her.  "Tell me what you want me to do and I will do it." I looked
down at Jennifer as I said that, waiting for her answer.

   Jennifer smiled and told me she wanted to be on top.  "That way you can
play with my boobs and with my..." she blushed as she left the last part
unsaid.

   I rolled to lie on my back and in a flash Jennifer was climbing up over
me, impaling herself on my cock.  I did as asked and played with her
breasts, gently squeezing them while occasionally lightly pinching her
nipples.  Of course her rosebud couldn't be ignored so it got the
occasional tickle.  As I had expected, Jennifer was quite vocal.

   "Yes, more... Oh yes... Play with my... bum.  Oh, that's so nice... Yes,
yes, YESSS!  Ahh... Ahhhhh..." and with that, she came.

   "Well, Mrs.  Brinkley, how was your first lovemaking session as a
married lady?  Did I satisfy you?" I asked her with a smile on my face.

   Jennifer smiled as she bent down to kiss me then sat back up.  "Oh yes,
it was wonderful.  Mr.  and Mrs.  Brinkley need to do this more often." She
paused, smiled and put her `I have a surprise for you' look on her face. 
"I have a confession to make." she said as she continued.  "We didn't
discuss it, but I stopped taking my birth control pills about 6 weeks ago.
Since I'm at the most fertile time of my cycle right now, maybe tonight
will be the night that we..." she paused and looked at me to see what I'd
say.

   I grinned from ear to ear and completed her sentence "...we make a baby
happen.  Just to make sure, we must practice making a baby as many times as
we can until it works!" I pulled her back down to hug and kiss her.  "I'm
delighted that you did what you did.  I was going to talk to you about
that. I'm not an old man..." Jennifer giggled at that "...but I want to be
able to enjoy my - I mean our - our children before I get too far along in
life."

   "You must have been reading my mind `cause that's what I was thinking."
Jennifer said.

   "No, my dear, we both just understand the situation and acknowledge the
reality of life.  I hope that I live long enough to see our children grown
up but I also understand that that may not happen.  Enough of the slightly
morbid thoughts, tonight is our special night so let's just sleep in one
another's arms."

   We rolled apart and Jennifer used the ever present towel to wipe the
worst of our lovemaking off.  We cuddled up and soon were sound asleep.

   *****

   The next morning after our morning cleanup and breakfast, we collected
Martin and his luggage and headed over to the main island.  As we got near
the island, I saw a boat with two guys out fishing.  I recognized them and
waved as we went by.  I didn't think anything of that until we made the
last turn to approach the landing and saw the huge crowd gathered on the
shore.

   "Wow!" Jennifer exclaimed.  "Look at all the people.  There must be just
about everyone in town there.  How did they know when we were coming?"

   The two `fishermen' immediately popped into mind.  I turned to look
behind us and sure enough, there they were, following us in.

   "I believe those two guys out `fishing' were there to let everyone know
we were on our way so that they could be down at the landing," I said. 
"Look who's behind us."

   Jennifer turned and looked then laughed.  "I bet it was Elizabeth and
the `posse', as you call them, that organized this." I smiled in
acknowledgement.

   I looked at Martin who was still looking at all the folks on the shore.
Jennifer explained things to Martin.  "Martin, remember me telling you
about Wally's generosity to the community?  Well this is an indication of
just how well liked he's here." While I was a bit surprised to see all the
people waiting for us, it had to admit that it wasn't completely
unexpected.

   Our conversation had to come to an end as we were nearing the dock.  I
saw three or four individuals there to help take lines and help us out of
our boat.  As soon as we were up on the shore we were ceremonially escorted
to the community centre where a pot luck supper had been laid on.

   While Jennifer and I had asked that there be no gifts, there were a few
gag gifts, some of which caused Jennifer to blush but always brought forth
lots of laughs from those present.  At one point my elder friend came over
with a gift for us.  This was a gift that meant a lot to my friend and to
me.  Jennifer was so gracious when she accepted the gift and I could see
that my friend was pleased by her response.

   Over the next few hours we ate, talked and in general had a good time.
One of the guests was an unexpected one - Edith the social worker.  When
Jennifer saw her, she made a bee line over to talk to her.

   "Edith, look what you've done." Jennifer said.  "If you hadn't let Wally
look after me, I'd be a happy well-adjusted young lady looking to start a
life for myself." I could see that Edith had a bit of a concerned look on
her face.  Jennifer giggled, then continued.  "Thanks to you I have a
wonderful husband and have already started out on that wonderful life.  For
that I'm eternally grateful to you." As Edith relaxed a bit, Jennifer went
over and hugged her, whispering something in Edith's ear.  I saw Edith
smile and hug Jennifer tighter.

   "Wally," Edith said as she let go of Jennifer, "make sure you look after
this amazing young woman.  I'm so glad that things have worked out this
way. I've been keeping up on what happened with you.  Ron and I talk quite
frequently about a number of things and I always manage to get caught up on
what you two are up to.  He told me about your upcoming marriage and the
community pot luck and he said that I'd be welcome if I wanted to come. 
How could I not accept his offer?" Turning to Jennifer she continued,
"Jennifer, I heard that you managed to make contact with your parents'
families and that fences have been mended.  I'm glad that happened.  I wish
you and Wally all the best." The three of us hugged and Jennifer and I
thanked Edith then continued circulating.

   At one point, Jennifer had left me talking to a couple of guys and had
gone off on her own.  As I turned to look for Jennifer I saw Elizabeth
standing there waiting to talk to me.  "I've got `Jennifer's room' all
ready for you two.  Please don't make too much noise tonight while you
continue with your latest project."

   It took me a moment to figure out that Elizabeth was privy to our plans
to start a family as soon as we could.  I must have blushed a bit as
Elizabeth started to laugh.  "Gotcha!  Jennifer told me what she was going
to do.  I do hope your project is fruitful."

   "Listen, it's not me that makes the noise, it's Jennifer.  I may have to
put something in her mouth to stop the noise tonight." I said then as the
words left my mouth, realized how Elizabeth would take it.  Elizabeth
grinned that wicked grin.  "I guess that depends what you put in her
mouth," then giggled and left - leaving me somewhat speechless.

   Jennifer appeared about that point and said she wanted to get up on the
stage to say thanks to everyone.  We made our way over, grabbing Constable
Ron was we did, explaining what we wanted.  Ron got up on the stage, called
for quiet and explained what we wanted to do.  Jennifer took me by the hand
and together we walked over to the front of the stage.  Jennifer was
eloquent thanking everyone for this evening and assuring them that this
would be an evening to remember.

   I wasn't surprised to hear the applause.  After leaving the stage,
Jennifer and I managed to make our way over to the store and up to
Elizabeth and Helen's apartment.  "Elizabeth told me that we were supposed
to keep the noise level down tonight," I told Jennifer with a grin. 
Jennifer just smiled, took my hand and led me up to `Jennifer's room'.
