The next morning, I'm standing at the desk of the spa getting talked into something called a Chakra Blessing. A beautiful woman appears in front of me and brings me back to the consult room, here is where I find out the benefits of the blessing and she tells me that I should do all five blessing during my stay.
"I have been stressed lately, but not as much as my boyfriend." I share with the ladies.
"Swadhisthana." The two ladies nod at each other at the same time. "Good for fertility, sexual virility, and self-worth."
Laughing, I shake my head. "Sex isn't an issue with us and I don't think either of us are ready for a baby."
"Good for balance, desire, and pleasure too. Get undressed and lay face down on the table." They both tell me.
I expect them to leave the room, but they don't. I remove my maxi dress from my body and hurry to the bed. The warm white sheet covers my skin. A soft music starts playing around us. My mind starts drifting with relaxation in the quite room.
"A guy could get used to this view." I hear his voice behind me.
I spring from the table and wrap my arms around him. He was out all night and still this morning when I left. I give him a quick kiss. The women walk back into the room and tell Ben to get undressed, they point to the empty table next to mine.
"What is happening?" I ask him.
"I asked where you were, and they told me to follow them. Something about a couple's treatment to help with desire."
I start laughing and kiss him again. "I said we didn't need that."
"Me too." He laughs.
"You look better." I smile at my boyfriend.
"I feel better."
We lay face down on our tables and start getting scrubbed with a very course scrub, it was slightly painful but strangely relaxing. Together, we are led to a shower to rinse the scrub from our bodies. Ben grabs my hand and kisses my temple. The ladies give us our privacy while we wash the scrub from each other's bodies.
"I was starting to get scared. You were really sick." I tell him.
"It will take more than that." He kisses me. "I'm sorry that the first night was a bust, but I won't let anything else wreck this trip."
The ladies clear their throats at the doorway and tell us it's time for the massages. Closing my eyes, I enjoy this massage to the fullest. I promise myself to make an effort to get these on a more regular basis.
The next step of the massage was the chakra warming. Notes of patchouli and jasmine fill my nose as the hot oil is poured onto my abdomen and massaged in. The feeling is incredible and the desire for Ben is strong.
I was a believer.
Slipping our clothing back on, we practically run back to the villa. The moment we walk through our front door, he is pulling my dress over my head. I find his button on his shorts and push them to the floor. Pulling away from him, I race out of the living room and take the spiral staircase to the top deck. Ben is right behind me, throwing his shirt off in the process.
Jumping, I land in the middle of the soft bed and smile at him through my open legs. He moves up the bed by kissing my toes, then my legs, my aching middle, my burning abdomen, and finally my shoulders. I wrap my arms around his neck and play with his hair. He brings his lips from my shoulders to my mouth.
His tongue telling me everything he's feeling.
Ben moves down to my breast and teases my nipples the way I love. I throw my head back and push my body into his. I need him badly.
"You belong on an island. You look spectacular." He grins down at me.
My fingers dig into his back with the surge of pleasure as he pushes in. Whatever those ladies did to us was magical. Ben reaches for my hands and laces them with his above my head. His hips hold me in place. Having no control, or the ability to touch him intensified the feelings flowing throughout my body.
He pushes into me harder and with a purpose. He's too deep and the feeling is too intense. The feelings are too much for me. I need a release now. I try moving up and down, but he laughs and holds me tight into place. I start begging him to give it to me.
"I will." He smiles.
He pulls out of me slowly and then pushes back in just as slow and torturous. I was starting to believe that this is how I was going to die. My nerves are on high alert and each stroke was painful in the best way possible.
"Ally, marry me." He moans next to my ear.
I stop fighting him and look up. Ben's eyes are wet, but he is smiling. The tears spring to my eyes and roll down my cheeks.
"Please let my hands go." I whisper in a panic.
When he does, I push him off me and crawl onto him. I push him back inside me. I start kissing his lips as hard as I could. I wanted to become a part of him. I didn't know if he was serious about what he just said, or if it was in the moment, but I kissed him like it was the only thing I needed in the world.
"I love you."
It was the only thing that I could think of to say to him.
Love seemed like such a small thing now. What I feel for Ben is something stronger, more intense, and down-right scary. He is my everything and I couldn't imagine life without him. He made my day special by filling it with laughter, love, support and security.
I move on him with a purpose. Words were failing me, but maybe I could make him feel how much he meant to me. We went together and he wraps me tight into him. We are both covered in sweat and smell like each other. I was in no rush to wash that from me. I push my head closer to his neck and he kisses my forehead.
"Why aren't you answering my question?" He laughs.
"That was a serious question? What happened to waiting?" I look up at him in shock.
Ben untangles himself from me and hurries down the stairs, I do the same thing and grab his present beating him back up the stairs. I watch his perfect body flex with each step he takes towards me. The sweat is glowing with the sun. He looks perfect.
"Allyson Victoria Sicard, for the last year I've been wanting to ask you this very important question." He smiles and sits on the bed in front of me.
"Open mine first." I say handing him the ring box.
"No. You're not stealing my thunder. I've been wanting to do this since our picnic in Central Park. Ally, I had the ring with me, but I was too nervous to ask. Part of me feels like I have no right to ask you being the present situation I've put us in, but I really want to spend the rest of my life making this up to you. Marry me. Become Allyson Beneventi and make me the happiest man on the planet."
Ben opens the ring box, and I was looking at a two carat round diamond set in a diamond band, my eyes instantly fill with tears. His proposal is a serious and very real question.
"Why?" I ask him.
This makes him laugh hard. "Why? Because I love you. Ally, I was okay being alone until I met you and then you changed the way I saw things. You've spoiled me with love and kindness, I don't want to go back to anything before that. You are the air I need to breathe. So will you marry me?" He asks again.
The lump in my throat grows and the tears spilled from my eyes. I nod and whisper yes. Of course my answer was going to be yes, he was the only thing I was sure of in this crazy world.
He slips the ring on my finger, and I watch in awe as the diamonds sparkle in the sunlight. Ben grabs his present from my hand and puts it on the floor below us before kissing me.
