A Soldier's Journey

Part 23: Just The Start

I wake up to the feeling of laying on Steve's bare chest. His hand tracing up and down my bare back. I think about the events of last night. I got married to the man I love and had the most amazing sex ever. I'm totally going to be sore today.

"Good morning baby." Steve says in his sexy morning voice. "Morning love." I respond. Steve kisses the top of my head. His hand reaches over the top of his chest and I interlock our fingers. "How'd you sleep?" He asks. "Best sleep I've had in a long time. You?" I ask. "Best night ever." He responds, making me laugh. I lean up and kiss him. "I love you." He says. "I love you more." I respond. I then slide out of bed and put on some clean underwear and one of Steve's shirts.

I lean on the edge of the bed on my forearms where Steve is watching me change. "Pancakes?" I ask. Steve smiles and kisses me, then gets out of bed and changes.

I walk out to the kitchen and start making pancakes. Soon Steve comes out without a shirt, but with sweatpants on. My eyes travel down his muscular chest with a smirk on my face. "You like what you see?" He asks. "Mhmm." I respond. He hugs me from behind and kisses my neck.

I lift up his plate of pancakes and his lips miraculously remove from my body. He takes the plate. "Oh, good to know that pancakes mean more to you than me." I joke. "Sorry baby, if you want last night to repeat, then I'm gonna need my energy." He says, kissing me then walking to the breakfast bar. "As far as excuses go, that's not the worst." I joke, making Steve chuckle. I get myself a plate and sit down next to him. Yup, definitely sore. I shift a little in my seat and Steve and I start eating.

The room looks completely different in the sunlight. There are large windows surrounding an open living room, kitchen and dining room. Several hallways too. Steve pulls a note towards him that says, Honeymoon pleasures only. Have fun! -Tony.

A key sits on top of the note and Steve hands it to me. I look around the room and find a door with a lock on it. It's the only random door in the room, the rest are hallways. I walk over to the door and unlock it. Steve follows me down the stairs and I open the door. "Oh my god. It's a sex room." I say. Steve immediately throws me over his shoulder. "Might as well try it out." He says, slapping my ass.

Now I'm really sore, my back hurts and I can barely walk. But other than that, the honeymoon has been amazing. The only downside is that now Steve will barely even touch me because he's worried that he'll hurt me. I keep telling him that it's fine and it'll be gone soon, but he's still nervous about it.

It is kind of cute though because he's so gentle and worried about it. I'm not though because I know that it's just a change for my body and that it'll adjust soon.

I wake up laying on my stomach with my arms wrapped around the pillow. Every morning this week I've woken up completely naked except this morning because Steve refused to touch me even though I literally begged, which he only found amusing, not effective.

I turn over and face Steve, who is already awake. He smiles at me, but I turn away, trying to get him to make a move. His hand rubs up and down my arm, so gently that I can barely even feel it. He leans up and gently kisses my cheek, then gets out of bed. I sigh when I hear the door to the room close.

Ignoring him obviously isn't working. Maybe if I act like it's better. No he'd be pissed if he found out about that and I wouldn't be able to hide it.

I hear the door open again and don't move, still facing the wall. Steve crouches down in front of me next to the bed. "What do you want to do today?" He asks. I narrow my eyes. "You know what I want to do, but you don't want to do it with me." I respond. "It's not that I don't want to baby, I do, but I'm not going to hurt you in the process." He says, setting his hand on my arm. "I already told you, my body is just adjusting." I say. "Don't you think you're being a little over dramatic about this?" He asks. "Of course I'm being over dramatic, but it doesn't seem to have any effect other than for your entertainment." I say. "Well, it is very entertaining." He says, making me scoff and turn away from him again.
