Love in London

Happy Birthday, Henry

Harry and I spent the evening at his cottage enjoying a game night with Finnley, Siobhan, William and Catherine. We played Cards against Humanity and Bullshit. I never knew that Catherine had a wicked sense of humor. Siobhan and I looked at each other with some of the responses she played. Catherine won; both times we played the game last night.

Harry won Bullshit. I don't know if I should be proud or concerned by that fact.

When it got late William and Catherine walked home and the girls spent the night in the guest room.

Harry locked up the cottage and wrapped his right arm around my shoulders as we made our way into his room. He walked over to his bureau and pulled out a T-shirt for me and a pair of boxer shorts for himself. I kissed him and then went into his en suite. I used the facilities and then changed. Washing my hands and drying them on the hand towel. I then folded my clothes and placing them on the counter. I lifted the collar on the shirt and inhaled Harry's unique scent.

I walked out of the en suite and Harry was standing on the left side of the bed turning it down in his boxers. He climbed into bed and patted the spot next to him when he saw me staring at him. "Come here, love. No need to be scared."
I wasn't scared. I was admiring him. Toned and chiseled.

I climbed into his bed and laid beside him with my left arm across his stomach. "I wasn't scared. I was admiring your physique."  Playfully and gently Poking his rib.

"Good to know." He said placing hi left arm around me and squeezing me to him.

I looked at his alarm clock on his bedside table and saw it was 12 :02 AM. It was officially his birthday. I lift my head from his chest and kissed him. When I pulled back I told him.

"I'm so happy that I get to be the first person to officially wish you a Happy Birthday Baby"

He glanced at the clock "Thank you, Baby" and then he kissed me again.

We kissed for a little while before we both fell asleep in each other's arms.

My dream that night was beautiful.

Harry and I were in Africa at an Elephant preserve. We walked around the main buildings before we went to see the Baby Elephants. My Favorite animals are elephants. There were several baby elephants there. We walked in and sat on the ground. One of the babies came over and was trying to figure out where my trunk was by touching my nose with their trunk. I gently pet the baby's head. The elephant turned and tried to climb into my lap. Harry and I laughed and We both rubbed the baby's tummy.

"This is absolutely magical Harry. Thank you for bringing me here." I said turning my head to look at him.

"You're welcome, my love." He said kissing my cheek. We kept playing with the babies for a little while longer before we were directed to the area where we could walk with the herd. We walked for about a mile when when we came to a vista. The sun was starting to set. The herd stopped and stared. Harry whispered to the elephant next to us and the elephant bent down.  Harry climbed on first and then pulled me up too. I sat in front of him he had his arms around my waist and we stared out at the sunset. I felt Harry grab my left hand and then felt something slide onto a very important finger. I looked down and saw a very beautiful ring on my finger. I turned my head to look at Harry's beautiful face and he asked me the single most important question: "Will You Be My Wife, Victoria?"
