Little Lake

I grinned letting my fingers glide down his back. The more excited our bodies become together the more I craved him. As I felt my release, I kissed him hard on the lips pushing him in even further.

Geoffrey pushed even faster and finally he released into her with a deep moan. He leaned back his head and kissed her lips hungrily before falling on the grass next to her. He was breathing deeply while staring at the stars and thinking about how amazing it was

I have very mixed feelings about us being intimate. How do you know that we will last forever Geoffrey. I sat up dressing myself as the night chill began to close in around us.

Geoffrey was just lacing his pants when he heard her question. He just smiled and shrugged

Why shouldn't it last forever, Kate? We love each other. We're happy when we're together. And..we dream about our marriage to happen since long time. Also..I fought with Thomas Seymour for your love. Is this not enough..my love?

He answered sitting at her side helping her to lace her corset

I shifted my corset into place as I gently turned to face him. Oh I would always choose you over any other man no doubts about that darling. I kissed his lips gently, as my hand played with his blonde hairs. And I still dream of our wedding and me with my cottage with a garland of roses climbing up the walls.

Geoffrey kept on playing with her blonde hairs and smiled

You'll have your cottage, my love. I promise. It will be our love nest. And I feel so lucky having you in my life, sweet Kate..

He let out a sigh and placed a soft kiss on her shoulder

Geoffrey.. I called out with the tone of curiosity. You have a like for philosophy. Have you ever gone to speak about it with one of those people? You know the ones who predict things. I had wanted to know if I was predicted into his life.

Geoffrey was lacing his shirt when her question caught him in surprise

Do you mean..a Fortune teller? Ehm..I just tried once, actually. At the beginning of our relationship. But..no one knows about that. You know..I could be accused of heresy..

He added whispering and glancing around

I am fully aware of that! You can't just leave me hanging as to what they said. I looked at him eagerly not wanting to budget about the subject until he told me.

Geoffrey looked around again and came closer. He found this funny, cause he was acting like he was telling her a secret

You know..I don't go to Fortune tellers all the time. I just did it once. But..this woman saw..two women in my life. She said that they will be very important for me..

He finally revealed, waiting for her reaction

I raised my eyebrows his face gave away nothing so I gently slapped his arm. You jest me my sweet love. Laughing I stood, wiping down my skirt which has now become slightly damp. Of course! But Lady Prue is a dear friend to you. How is she now days. I wrapped my arms around his waist pulling him closer to me.

Geoffrey smiled as she slapped him jokingly and let her wrapping him with her arms. He wrapped his arms around her too and kissed softly her lips

Oh..I see you got immediately the lady whom I was talking about. Ladies have really a very strong instinct. Lady Prue is fine, anyway. She recently went to Scotland for the royal Christening. She wrote to me that it was a very funny situation, because the other grandparent was Thomas More. But I think they became friends. Now she is here at court with her husband..

He answered, caressing her hairs slowly

I softly ran my fingers along his stubble as he talked. He was my perfect distraction from the winters night. All I wanted to do was to slip into a nice hot tub to warm the cockles of my heart. She and her husband can come to our wedding. Can I make you an offer, a proposition if you may.

Geoffrey finished to dress up completely and turned towards her, intrigued by her question

An offer? Of course..what's about?

He asked curiously

If you are not to busy. Why don't we slip into a hot bath together. I hoped that the king would not need him back just yet. It would be a perfect end to a perfect evening.

Geoffrey opened his mouth and a giggle escaped from it

A bath? Do you mean..now? Oh..it would be wonderful, my love. I couldn't have a better idea. But..knowing how crazy you are..I'm not surprised. But..where?

He asked looking around

I looked at him taken aback by his claim of me being "Crazy" I gave him a stern, hard look tilting my head to the side. I do believe that not far from here is a Roman bath. It is away from the palace and I do detest the small baths here.

Geoffrey smiled surprised

A Roman Bath? I have never saw one. And I had no idea that there was a Roman Bath at Palace. Where is it?

He asked excited, wanting her to show him this romantic and tempting place

Geoffrey grabbed her hand and stood up. He let her bringing him away to discover this new, mysterious place

I would go anywhere with you, Kate..

He said with excited voice while running towards their new secret love nest
