Chapter Three-A New Beginning
I may regret the decision later on but I had decided to keep in touch with Martin. My mom said I was asking for trouble but I couldn't help it. Martin was my first love and truth be told I still felt some thing for him. And he obviously felt something for me too. It's been a month since he walked back into my life and we're going on our second first date. Sherry had happily agreed to watch Anna for me. Poor thing still fell guilty about the horrible blind dates. Martin arrived right on time looking very handsome and I met him on the front porch.
"You look incredible, Johnnie," he said as he kissed my hand.
"Thank you. You don't look too bad yourself."
I cannot believe this. I have butterflies in my stomach. Martin and I dated for two and a half years in high school but its different now since we're obviously different. I really wanted this relationship to work.
"Johnnie? Are you alright," Martin asked me, touching my cheek.
"Sorry. I was spacing out. So what are our exciting plans for tonight?"
"Well my friend Marco is a chef and he has a restaraunt here in town, Chez Marco. I thought maybe we could go check it out."
I did my best not to think about Jason. "I've been there once. The food is incredible. Sherry went last week and she told me I had to try the lobster. She said its sinful."
"Marco will be pleased you approve of his cooking. Oh before I forget. I brought you something," Martin told me excitedly, as he picked up a box off the bench.
"Ooo! I love presents. What is it," I asked giving the box a gentle shake, "Give me a hint."
Martin laughed. "If you want to know what's in it maybe you should open it."
I ripped the box off anf flung the top of the box aside. I couldn't believe it. Martin had found a red Forever Rose just like the one he bought me on our first date.
"Martin, it's beautiful."
I had no idea what else to say. I was shocked and touched that he remembered about the rose. I hurried inside and asked Sherry to put it in my room so Martin wouldn't see my tears. Happy tears.
We were greeted by Marco the minute we got to the restaraunt. He insisted we sit at the best table and brought us a complimentary bottle of wine. When the waiter came to take our order, Marco quickly shooed him away.
"Martin, you are going to have the filet mignon and your beautiful date will have the lobster. I will make them myself right now."
Marco hurried away leaving Martin and I alone. I was trying not to laugh. Marco was extremely sweet but he reminded me of my pop-pop's Jack Russell terrier. Martin raised his eyebrows like he knew what I was thinking. He didn't comment on it though. He asked me about work, school, and Anna. I was surprised when I saw Marco coming with our food and then I realized over 40 minutes had passed. Marco set the plates down with a flourish and an"Enjoy" before hurrying back to the kitchen.
"Mmmm. This smells incredible. If it smells as good as it looks I might just have to marry Marco,' I told Martin with a little smile.
"I don't see that happening," Martin informed me as he shoveled a heaping forkful of food into his mouth,"I can tell you this much, the filet mignon is deliscious."
I was too busy savoring my lobster to pay him any attention. Sherry wasn't kidding, the lobster was so good it was almost sinful. I glanced at Martin's plate with was almost empty. He gave me a mischievious grin and leaned towards me. At first I thought he was going to kiss me, but instead he put him fork on my plate and stole some of my lobster.
"HEY," I exclaimed, slapping his hand.
I was trying to finish my lobster but Martin was making things very difficult. He kept kissing my neck, trying to steal my food, and tickling me. Some of the other patrons didn't look to happy about me squealing or giggling. Marco didn't seem bothered by it, he just walked by and gave us a huge grin.
"MARTIN," I said as sharply as I could,"If you don't knock it off I'm never going to finish my food."
"I can't help it," Martin said making his voice whiney,"I'm bored. You eat too slow."
"Well maybe I could eat faster if my date would quit pestering me for five minutes," I told him, sounding exsasperated.
Martin gave me a playful smile. "I'll leave you alone if you give me a kiss."
I groaned and shook my head. "Martin you are a pain in the...."
"Now. Now. Be nice. A kiss and I'll quit bothering you."
I returned his mischievious smile and blew him a kiss. He opened his mouth to complain but then he closed it and opted for sitting quietly while he pouted.
The next part of our date was much more fun. Martin took me to his brother's house so we could use his hot tub. It took me all of thirty seconds to lose my clothes and jump into the hot tub. It felt so good and Martin in his swim trunks wasn't too bad to look at either. He slowly climbed in next to me and yanked me into his lap.
"This brings back memories huh,"Martin asked.
I knew he was talking about all the times we'd sneak out and go over to his grandparent's house. They had a huge swimming pool and a hot tub which they told him he could use while they were away. All those late nights took a toll on me but it was worth it. Martin and I could talk without anyone over hearing us.
"Yeah. Those were great times. Whatever happened to us?"
Dammit I promised I wouldn't bring this up.
Martin looked into my eyes. "Honestly. I was an idiot. I let my friends get to me. They told me I could be more popular if I ditched the "nerd" so I did. I dated bimbo after bimbo and I hated it. I always regretted letting you go. "
Good enough for me. I finally had my answer.
"I always hoped it wasn't because you stopped loving me."
"I've never stopped loving you, Johnnie. I'm just stupid. We could have been one of those happily ever afters we always joked about."
'We still could be,' I thought with a smile.
"What are you thinking about? I've never seen that smile."
"I'm just thinking about kissing you senseless."
No need to scare him away with marriage talk just yet. I wanted to pretend like we were back in high school. Young and in love. Those were they days. I grabbed Martin's face and started making out like we did in high school. From the happy noise Martin made I knew he was enjoying it as much as I was.
'Goddess, I need to get a grip. Martin and I aren't in high school anymore. I have a baby now,' I chided myself angrily.
I pulled away and looked at Martin. "I'm sorry but I really should get home. It's almost eleven and I told Sherry I'd try to be home early."
Much to my surprise Martin didn't look angry or annoyed like I expected. He just smiled and got out of the hot tub to go get dressed.
After promising Sherry about fifty times that I'd call her tomorrow with all the juicy gossip I finally joined Martin on the couch. It didn't last long, we were interrupted by Anna screaming. I hurried upstairs to take care of her. Half an hour later and Anna had been fed, changed, and was now sleeping peacefully. By the time I got back downstairs Martin was watching a movie. I dropped down on the couch next to him.
"You okay," he asked concerned.
"Just a little tired. One of the many joys of motherhood."
Martin pulled me onto his lap and gave me a kiss. A sweet, gentle kiss. Then he got comfortable with me on his lap so he could finish watching the movie. It was nice. Too nice. I was starting to think that this was a dream. Soon I was going to wake up and I'd be alone. Things never go this good for me. I reached down to pinch my arm and of course Martin noticed.
"What are you doing," he asked sounded amused,"Did you just pinch yourself? If you had asked me I would have been more than happy to do it. Although it probably would have been your arm."
The movie ended and I really didn't want Martin to go yet. Maybe not at all. I stayed on his lap for as long as I could before he picked me up and sat me down next to him.
"It's getting kind of late. I should probably get going," Martin said as he stood up.
"Don't go," I blurted out before I could stop myself.
"What? Johnnie, are you sure?"
"Yes," I said without hesitating.
I led him upstairs and into my bedroom. I layed down on my bed and got comfortable. I wasn't sure what I wanted to do next. Martin layed next to me and watched me as I squirmed around. I closed my eyes and tried to think. I guess Martin was tired of waiting for me to make up my mind because when I looked again he was towering over me. My heart was racing and I could barely breath. I wanted him more than I ever had. When he kissed me I felt sparks and half an hour later when we made love I saw fireworks.
I woke up with a start and felt someone next to me. It took me a moment to realize it was Martin. I smiled as I watched him sleeping but then I heard Anna crying. That was the reason for me waking up, my internal alarm clock knew it was feeding time. I got up and went into the nursery. She quieted down when she heard me come in.
"Hey baby girl. Is it time to feed you again? You are a growing girl aren't you?"
I picked her up and she stopping whining and started cooing happily. I sat down in the rocking chair in the corner so I could nurse her. She was so hungry it took 45 minutes to feed her and change her diaper.
"Momma may have found the man of her dream, little one. His name is Martin and he was my first love. Maybe things are finally changing for me. None of this matters to you, does it? You're just happy with Momma, aren't you?"
I put Anna in her crib and headed back to bed. Martin was still there snoring loudly and hogging the covers.
