More Than a Soldier

Chapter 49 - Pool day

Y/n's POV:

I wake up to the sound of birds and the gentle lapping of the sea. It takes my brain a moment before it registers where we are. My eyes slowly open as I take in the beautiful sight before me. My stunning, naked wife is as close to me as she can be. Our legs are entangled, her head is resting on my bare chest and her arm is securely wrapped around my stomach.

I look up to the window and take in the view. It's like we're on our own private island. The white sands and gorgeous blue sea fill up most of the view. I just lie there and take it all in. This is our honeymoon. I'm led here with my wife, and we have 10 amazing days ahead of us for us to celebrate our relationship.

My mind then wonders to our midnight tryst. We both woke up in the middle of the night feeling extremely horny and decided to not wait until morning. If this is a precursor to how this trip is going to go, then I'm all for it. There is no schedule, no concrete plans, and I plan to make the most of it.

A part of me wants to get up, feeling myself starting to get restless. But in this moment, I'm content with the most beautiful woman wrapped around my body and the best view I could ask for from bed. Shutting off my restless thoughts, I adjust so I can hold Scarlett more comfortably, my arm starting to go slightly numb. In her sleep she moves sub-consciously to not break the contact with me, and then adjusts as soon as I'm settled.

I know I'm not going to fall back asleep, so I enjoy this moment, holding my wife close, running my hands gently through her hair whilst my other hand interlinks with hers. This is how I get to spend the rest of my life, in the arms of my loving wife and I couldn't be happier.

After about an hour, Scarlett slowly starts to stir. I watch as a smile forms on her mouth before she even opens her eyes. Her grip around me tightens and she places a kiss to my collarbone before her eyes flutter open. "Morning babe." She sighs contently as her eyes meet mine. "Good morning my love." I smile, leaning forward to connect our lips for a kiss that she hums into. "This is the perfect way to wake up." She beams, turning slightly so she can take in the view from the window. "I agree." I reply.

"How long have you been up?" She asks me, her attention now back on me. "Uh, maybe an hour or so." I answer, my hand aimlessly running up and down her arm. "Babe, you should have woken me. I know you get restless in the mornings." She says sternly. "I was quite happy in this position." I smile at her, and she relaxes when she sees it's the truth.

"What do you want to do today angel?" I ask her as her eyes flutter to stay open. She thinks for a moment and then her green eyes land on me. "Let's not go far today. Enjoy the house and maybe take a walk on the beach?" She suggests and I couldn't agree more with that idea. "That sounds perfect. We have plenty of time to explore the island. Let's just enjoy being with each other today." I agree. "But let's start with some breakfast, we're going to need it after burning off dinner last night!" I smirk at Scarlett who's eyes flash dark for a brief moment.

"Bacon and eggs, ok?" I ask and she nods. "Ok my love. I'll go and get started on that." I tell her, moving to get up. But I'm quickly tugged back onto my back with Scarlett now straddling me. "You didn't give me a goodbye kiss." She scolds me, pinning my arms above my head. "Hmm, maybe breakfast can wait." I grin, earning an eye roll.

Not responding to me, Scarlett, lowers her head so it's hovering over me. "Oh, you're going to make me breakfast, I'm just getting my morning kiss first." She says in a sultry voice. I bite at my bottom lip and Scarlett's gaze flicks to them. "You as so fucking hot." She groans, grinding her hips into me before smashing out lips together in a heated kiss.

She keeps my hands above my head, not allowing me to touch her as our lips move together, our tongues fighting for dominance. As I try to deepen the kiss further and push my own hips upwords, Scarlett pulls away breathlessly. "Breakfast would be lovely now dear." She smirks, getting up and swaying her hips as she walks to the bathroom. "That bitch." I whisper to myself as I try to calm my excited body down.
