Part 8

September 14th came and Beth's wedding day. They were going to marry at 10:30 in the morning. Everything was set up at the BBQ site. Ruth and Mark made sure everything just so when Cliff and Grace came. "Hi Ruth how is the Mother of the Bride doing?" Grace said. "Just fine so happy that Sam and Beth worked out their problems." Ruth said. Cliff knew of the problems Sam faced for they are talking once a week.

Beth was getting into her gown when Naomi came to check on her. "How are you doing?" Naomi said. "Nervous and yet happy to be with Sam." Beth said. "That the way is should be." Naomi said. She helped Beth with her dress and veil and made sure everything was just so. Mark was going to get Beth and drive her there to the BBQ Site than walk her towards Sam.

Samuel, Isaac, and Jason came early already dressed in their Suits. The people who were invited were already there. "Hi Sam how are you?" Rick said. "Fine, getting married is going to be great." Sam said. Jake was one of the grooms men while Jason was the best man and Isaac another best man. Once Beth arrived they were ready to began. Ruth was already seated in front along with Susan. Heather was a brides maid and Isaac took her arm, Naomi took Jason's arm and they walked down the grassy isle. Beth and Mark walked slowly down the isle to where Sam was waiting. He only had eyes for Beth. "Dearly beloved we are gathered here today to join Samuel James Reed and Elisabeth Marie Davis in Holy wed lock. Turning to Beth he asked "Do you Beth take Samuel to be your husband to have and to hold from this day forward, to honor and obey in sickness and health until you both shall live." Cliff said. "I do." Beth said. "Do you Samuel take Beth to be your wife to have and to hold in sickness and in health until death do you part. To cherish her for the rest of your days." Cliff said. "I do." Samuel said. They did the rings and Cliff told Sam he could kiss his bride. Samuel bent his tall frame and kissed Beth thoroughly. They walked hand in hand back towards the entrance of the isle. The meal was good and Beth enjoyed herself immensely she was glad to see Rick come for Sam's sake. Everyone gathered around Beth and Sam. Once the reception was over Beth and Sam changed to get ready for home. "I have a surprise for you." Sam said. "You do." Beth said. She was helped into the Rig and driven towards Creed. Once in Creed Sam turned off towards his home and two houses down was where he pulled into the driveway to a beautiful two story home. Looking at it Beth was speechless. "Sam is this the place?" Beth asked. Sam unhooked his seatbelt than hers and went around to help her out. When reached the thresh hold Sam took Beth into his arms carrying her over it and placing her indoors. The house was gorgeous she noticed the home was just what she had dreamed about. Beth went towards the living room when Sam steered her to the Master bedroom off the hall way. Once entering Sam had a huge king size bed with a book shelf head board. She loved it! "Sam this is lovely how did you do it all?" Beth asked. "I had Naomi, Mom, Ruth, Heather, and Grace's help making it a home you would love." Sam said. "I love it! I want to take a tour of the house." Beth said. Sam gave her the personal tour up the stairs were two bedrooms which would be perfect for children or company. Down stairs were two more bedrooms off the hallway one of them being there bedroom. Once done Sam led her towards the kitchen which was another great room. "I like it." Beth said. She could see her making many meals in here. Sam glanced at Beth she was happy in her new home. He made sure the doors were locked for the night and went to the master bedroom again. Beth opened the closet all her things were in there. "I guess I have been working so much I didn't notice my room at home was getting sparse." Beth said. "Beth may I kiss you now?" Sam said. Beth sat down on the bed and Sam kissed her mouth, to her ears, to her neck. "Sam I love you." Beth said. Sam helped her undress while she helped him. Removing his clothes was a new thing for Beth. Her Mom told her all about being intimate. "Sam did your Dad have the talk with you?" Beth asked. "Yes, and I am sure your Mom explained things to you." Sam said. "Yes, I am a little nervous about all of this." Beth said. "Don't concern yourself Beth we will be slow and easy." Sam said. And that is what Sam did he was so slow that Beth was ready for more.

Beth awakened to tangled sheets and Sam was making breakfast for her. That was sweet too thought Beth as she placed on a bath robe and went to him. Sam turned to see his wife she was looking particularly gorgeous at that moment. "How did you sleep?" Sam asked handing her a plate of Eggs, Bacon with toast and a cup of coffee. Now seated by Sam Beth couldn't concentrate on the meal. "Thanks for the meal Sam." Beth said. Smiling at her Sam knew what Beth wanted and it was not to eat breakfast. They went back to bed enjoying the Sacred Bonds of marriage knowing God was faithful in keeping them on this step of marriage and beyond. Hours later Sam and Beth took a warm shower together enjoying it. Sam thought how God made Beth just for her saving themselves for marriage when so many young people slept around. " Penny for your thoughts?" Beth asked. "I was thinking how blessed we are Beth on how the Lord saved both of us before marriage." Sam said. Beth also felt grateful to the Lord that her Mom explained things in her teens before marriage. Nothing in the texts book made it feel like she did at this moment standing in the shower with her husband who loved her and wanted what was best for her. She too wanted what was best for Sam and that was being his wife. 

The following weekend Beth and Sam went on their Honeymoon. Beth was exited when they pulled up to the Honeymoon Suite off the main Motel. The sun had set now and Sam helped carry the bags that they needed for four days time into their room. It held a nice King size bed, with two end tables, and a beautiful window facing the Ocean. Beth walked over there and looked. She loved it and didn't hear Sam talking when he placed his arms around her waist gathering her close. "Wow! Sam this is a nice surprise. Thank You so much." Beth said. Beth was turned gently around and Sam kissed her softly then with more passion. Beth was equal in kissing Sam they both enjoyed it so much. In bed Beth and Sam snuggled closer to where they were touching. Beth sighed with pleasure for Sam knew were they are now. "I love you." Beth said. "I know you do." Sam said. He was kissing her again enjoying how her pleasure in their loving making.  They settled for the night for they were both spent by having fun with one another. Kissing her temple Sam went sound asleep. 

Morning sun hit  Sam and Beth's room she stirred a little Sam who had been awake for some time watched how she slept. The last few weeks had been wonderful and he knew Beth needed her sleep. He pulled on an old pair of sweat pants and went to the window watching the waves when Beth awakened to see him standing there with pants and no shirt. "Hey." Beth said. "Hi, how was your sleep?" Sam said turning around to see his wife. She had the sheet covering her body that was slowly waking up. "I think a shower or hot tub?" Sam said. "Shower I think Hot Tub tonight." Beth said. Sam had the shower going when Beth stepped inside happily.  They had fun Beth was helped in having her hair wash which she loved and Beth helped soap Sam down which they both found pleasure of serving the other in love. She was blessed in having this man in her life.
