The Ball Night

The Day the Earth Stood Still

Jackies P.O.V
One more day, one more until my loves birthday. It's 9pm, Catherine has already fell asleep but I can hardly contain my excitement and nervousness. I laid on my back, staring at the ceiling which at last I rebuild on Saturday. Levin has sent me a letter the same day, saying he has rested in a pub and found David outside the city, living in an abandoned cabin.

I've written back that maybe we could expand and live in the cabin until we found another district to live in. Catherine stirred and turned towards me, instinctively looking for me. I had my arms up and around the back of my head, so I reached over and grabbed her hand.

I turn to look at her and she smiled in her sleep. I hope she keeps that smile until tomorrow. I had to tell Father Christopher our age, I can't just lie to a Father. He had a puzzled look, then said that I'm lucky to know that I have the rights to marry, since he assumes I am a boy.

I stayed awake until 4 in the morning, where Catherine shuffled and exhales. She stretches and turns to look at me and surprised to see me awake so early.

"Jackie, darling why are you awake so early?" She says, inching closer to my face and caresses my cheek. I smile lazily and stretch as well.

"Why are you awake?" I said.

"Because I need to use the restroom, when I'm back I want an answer." She says, getting out of the bed and walks out of the room. My eyes follower her until she exits the door. I rubbed my cold hands together and breath in them and rubbed again. Damn this cold, I'm surprise we haven't seen the first snow fall...hell any snow. I bring the quilt up to my chin and I turn to my side to stare out the covered mist window. I was beginning to sleep but Catherine came back and quickly went under the blankets and quilts. She pops her head out and waits.

I raise my eyebrow at her and she rolls her eyes yet smiles." It's 4 in the morning," she said. I turn to my other side and gave her a 'duh' face however I know where she's going with this.

I smile," Happy birthday my princess...," and I leaned in to give her a kiss. She smiles underneath my lips and happily returns it. I kissed her passionately, I started to lean in more, pushing the kiss forward. Without pulling away, I slowly got on top of her and she wraps her legs around my waist and her arms around my neck.

I trailed my kisses down to her face to the crook of her neck, she gasp and pulls me closer, demanding more. I had to suck all the pain from my back, this is her birthday after all and it's been so long, I yearned for her touch, all of her. I began to take off my shirt and helping Cathys with her button up one. I throw both of them behind me and leaned down to kiss her from her lips to her chest.

I hesitated and looked up to her, begging for permission with my eyes and she nods and with that I took off her silk pants and felt her nails digging into my hair and pulling it.

"Jackie!" I climbed my way up next to her and fell on top of Cathy, breathing heavily. I felt her chest rising and falling, and she brings my head near her neck and she whispers to me," More..." and nibbles my earlobe and dear god I lost it.

Again, I wiped my fingers and mouth. She screams in such pleasure when I brought my mouth to her breasts once more before falling on her again. She was completely nude, all of her just for me, her lips, her face, her beautiful body is all mine.

I rested my head on her chest, closing my eyes and hearing her loud and fast beating heart. I was shirtless, the bandages covering my chest and I had my pj pants on. Her fingers twirled my curls and she again wraps her legs around me as I dig my arms and hold her.

"I love you." I said.

"I love you too." Cathy says, her heart skipped a beat and I smiled.

"I hope your satisfied with your first gift, my princess." I said, picking up my head to see her face. She smiles and says," First gift?" And raises an eyebrow. I nod," Wait till you see all my gifts, my love." I said.
