Chapter 17
Ron told her they would take the Expedition and took her arm as they walked to the garage. Ron held the door of the Expedition for her and she got in. Ron went around to the driver's side and got in. He reached for the key to start the car and then dropped his hand back into his lap. He reached over and took Brenda's hand in his.
"Aren't you going to finish dressing?" he asked. "You don't have everything on do you?"
Brenda started checking herself. She checked her earrings, pulled down the visor and looked in the mirror at her makeup and then looked at Ron with a worried look on her face.
"What am I missing?" she asked.
Ron reached in the pocket of his suit coat and pulled out a diamond ring and slipped it on her finger. Brenda stared at it for several minutes and the tears started running down her face.
Ron turned to her, "Will you marry me, Brenda."
Brenda threw her arms around him and hugged him so tight that he thought she would break his neck. She was sobbing so loud that he was almost afraid the neighbors would hear. She held him for several minutes before she pulled away to look at the ring again. The ring was a 5-carat diamond with 3 baguettes on each side. She fingered the ring as if she wouldn't believe it was real.
"Well, you haven't told me whether you would marry me," Ron said.
She threw her arms around him again and started crying again. "Of course I will," she said, "Oh, the ring is beautiful. I love it."
Brenda pulled down the visor and looked at herself in the mirror again. "Oh, look at my face," she wailed, "My mascara has run down to my chin. I can't go anywhere like this."
Ron shook his head, "Let's go back into the house and get you fixed up. I want to show off my future wife."
They went back into the house and Brenda washed her face and reapplied her makeup and looked at her ring many times. Ron had to change his suit as Brenda's mascara was on it and her lipstick was on the shoulder. As they prepared to leave Brenda kissed him again and then wiped the lipstick from his mouth.
"I love you," she said.
"I love you too," Ron smiled, "I just can't believe that a beautiful woman like you would marry a guy like me."
Ron had to pry her from around his neck again.
"How did you know my ring size," she asked.
Ron held up a tiny strip of paper, "I wrapped this around your finger while you were sleeping. You pulled your hand away and I was afraid that I might have the wrong size."
Brenda beamed, "It fits perfectly."
They drove toward Seattle and Brenda kept looking at the ring and then looking at Ron and telling him that she loved him. Ron crossed the Lake Washington Floating Bridge and headed for downtown Seattle. He pulled in front of the Four Seasons Hotel and the valet opened the door for Brenda and then came over to Ron's side. Ron got out and took Brenda's arm and led her into the hotel.
The Georgian Room at the Four Seasons is a 5 star restaurant with a world-renowned chef and the menu would make any chef in the world jealous. The service is impeccable and the ambiance of the dining room looks as if the greatest interior designer who ever lived designed it. The dining room has high ceilings and the chandeliers are elaborate and one of a kind. If money was no object and someone wanted to design the most romantic dining room in the world, this would be it.
Ron and Brenda went to the terrace bar and had a cocktail before they went to their table. Brenda kept looking at her ring and made sure that her hand was never out of sight. Several people looked at the ring as they passed. Brenda would often lean over to Ron and tell him she loved him.
As they walked to their table several of the men stared at this beautiful woman and were rewarded with a kick in the shins from their wife, girlfriend or date. Brenda radiated the serene glow of a woman in love. Men stared and women glared.
Ron suggested the "Surf and Turf" dinner and Brenda agreed. Ron ordered a bottle of champagne and Brenda looked at him with raised eyebrows.
Ron smiled at her reaction, "Don't worry, we're not driving tonight. I've reserved a suite in the hotel for us. So, enjoy your champagne."
"Any other surprises?" she smiled.
Ron and Brenda toasted each other and sampled the champagne and enjoyed each other's company. Several people came over to the table to talk to Ron and he introduced them to his new fiancé. Some made comments to Brenda that they never thought that Ron would fall. The billionaire, Howard Branson, stopped at the table and congratulated them when he was told of their engagement and offered his chalet in Aspen for their honeymoon. Ron and Brenda thanked him and told him that they would have to postpone a honeymoon for a while, as they had to get back to Howell. Howard told them that it was an open offer. They had the use of the chalet whenever they wanted it.
Ron and Brenda ate dinner, held hands occasionally, told each other that they were in love and were oblivious to the others in the restaurant. After they had finished eating, they talked for a long time, telling each other stories about their life as a teenager, in college and in their careers. Ed looked around and noticed that the restaurant crowd was thinning out and suggested that they leave.
Ron escorted her into the lobby of the hotel and walked to the elevator. He pushed the button for the top floor and pulled Brenda to him and kissed her. When the elevator reached the top floor Ron took Brenda's arm and led her to the suite.
Ron had reserved the best suite in the hotel. The suite was suitable for a king or billionaire and even had a hot tub. The view of Seattle was worth the price of the suite by itself. The carpets felt like they were 3" deep and the furniture was very expensive. It was obvious that the suite had been professionally decorated. There was a large basket of fruit on the table with a note saying "Compliments Of The Management."
Brenda walked into his arms, "You really know how to make a woman feel wanted."
Ron hugged her to him, "Nothing but the best for you, always."
She looked into his eyes, "Ron we're not going too fast, are we? Just 2 weeks ago we weren't even speaking civilly to each other."
"Brenda, I think that we have wasted enough time. I love you and I can't picture the rest of my life without you in it. Let's enjoy the fact that we finally woke up and found each other. Now, would you like to use the hot tub for a while?"
Ron started to undress Brenda. He unzipped her dress and slid it off of her shoulders. The dress fell to the floor at her feet and she stood before him in the sexiest bra, panties and garter belt that Ron had ever seen. Brenda slid his suit coat off and started to unbuckle his belt. Ron unsnapped her bra and she pulled it away from her and dropped it on the floor at her feet. Brenda took off his tie and shirt and they joined Brenda's clothes on the floor. Brenda kicked off her high heels and Ron knelt down on one knee and unsnapped her stockings and rolled them down her legs. She allowed Ron to take them off of her feet. Ron unsnapped the garter belt and it joined her clothes on the floor. He pulled her panties down her legs and she stepped out of them. Ron got up and Brenda unbuttoned his trousers and let them fall to the floor. She knelt down and pulled his shorts down and pulled his socks off. Ron pulled her up to him and kissed her deeply. She matched his passion and told him that she loved him.
Ron took her hand and led her to the hot tub and helped her into the tub. Ron climbed into the tub and pulled her to him and kissed her. They sat, holding each other for a while, neither saying a word.
Finally Brenda looked at Ron and spoke, "I am so happy. I don't think I can stand a lifetime of this."
Ron smiled, "You'd better get used to it. If you think I'm going to let you go now, you're crazy."
Brenda kissed him, "Let's get out of the tub now."
Ron helped her out of the hot tub and dried her off. Brenda took a fresh towel and dried Ron off. He led her to the bed. Brenda turned and took his hand and gently pushed him onto the bed and she crawled in next to him. She kissed him and started kissing down his neck and chest. Her kisses moved down and she took his cock into her hand and guided him into her mouth. Her lips engulfed him and she started making love to him with her mouth. Her tongue started driving him crazy and passion rose to meet his. Ron knew that he would not last long and he pulled her up to him. She straddled his legs and guided him into her. She started thrusting onto him like a woman possessed. Her thrusts increased in speed and intensity. Ron matched her thrusts and she screamed out as her orgasm swept over her. Ron emptied himself into her and she dropped onto him exhausted.
It was several minutes before she could move, "I can't believe that
sex is like this. I just want to stay like this forever."
