Outside the Box (31 page)

Around midnight everybody left except Harold and Carol, they were staying in the pool house so they didn’t feel like they were intruding on our privacy.  With the size of Spencer’s house that wasn’t even possible. 

Monday morning
Victoria and Jocee walked in and straight for me, “Upstairs, we need to measure you and take picture.”  Jocee demanded. 

After spending and hour taking
my measurements and them taking pictures of me with their phones, they told me that their sister would have me a few different designs with a few days.  “Promise me you guys won’t let Spencer see.”

“No no he can’t until that day.  I quit cooking for him if he tries to look.”
Victoria told me.  I knew she wouldn’t quit but she sure as hell wouldn’t let Spencer see my dress if her sister designed one I liked. 

By Thursday I was being ushered into my bedroom with pictures they had printed off, their sister Cheryl had designed three different dresses. 

“Oh my god, she is amazing!” I was speechless.  I looked over the first picture, put it to the side, looked over the second dress, the third picture almost made my heart stop.  “This one, I want this one!”  I waved the picture in their faces. 

“You owe me fifty dollar!”
Victoria told Jocee. 

“What do we need to do?  I love it.” I stared at the beautiful dress
, and traced the lines on the paper.

“Those sleeves are called cap sleeves, those are jewels that are hand sewn on to make it sparkle.  Each gathering, (Jocee pointed at the picture) is a cluster of jewels.  The trai
n will trail behind you five feet, detachable for the reception.”

“I love it, I need it.  I’ll get you his card.” I star
ted to move off the bed.

“No, it’s gift from us.  You made Spencer happy, so so
so
happy.  He smiles all the time now, his ex-wife broke him, you fixed our boy.  You make a perfect princess for him on your special day.”  Victoria told me and wiped at her eyes with her hanker chief, “So happy he is happy now, he will be happy for the rest of his life now.”

I knew there was no arguing with them, I hugged them and we all three cried.  Jocee gathered up the pictures, and told me she would take them with her so he didn’t start getting nosey.

The bachelor party was a big surprise to Spencer, we had planned all along to meet up with the guys at “The Square”.  Spencer was not happy about going out, he said he wanted to spend the night with his beautiful
fiancé, he was even more pissed when I told him I was staying with Destiney that night. 

I wasn’t even nervous the following morning, I was hyper and ready to put my beautiful dress on again.  I had to keep it in Destiney’s room so Spencer wouldn’t find it.  He had snooped through every inch of his house looking for it, finally
Victoria convinced him that I indeed did have the perfect dress.

Julie came over to do my hair and makeup about mid-morning, my bridesmaids and I would do pictures before Spencer and his wedding party arrived at the
harbor that Spencer insisted we get married at. 

Destiney and Julie were my bridesmaid, I asked Amber but she wanted to be able to get pictures.  “I’m sure it’ll be the only time I see Derrick dressed up, he’s been bitching for weeks that
he has to wear a tuxedo.”  We all laughed when she told us. 

Derrick and William were Spencer’s groomsmen, and Harold would be walking me down the aisle. 

I was admiring my dress in the mirror when Clancy buzzed up that he had a delivery for, “The soon to be Mrs. Alexia Scott.”  I had written a letter for Spencer but hadn’t had it delivered to him yet so I gave it to Clancy and asked for him to have it taken to him. 

“Lexi, you’ve blossomed into a beautiful woman.  Congratulations and don’t forget to come see me from time to time.” Clancy said and hugged me before leaving the apartment. 

Julie handed me a tissue, “These are always what makes the bride a blubbering mess, I guess we’ll see how waterproof that makeup really is?”

I pulled the letter out of the black envelope, there was a post card just like the two that I had been given by the homeless guy after I moved here.  I smiled at the small holographic square and traced it with my finger, on the back was a message from Spencer;

Ember ;) Alexia

I’m going to try not to make you cry while you read this, so I’ll keep it short and to the point.  Thank you for
coming into my ‘box’ but most importantly, Thank you for falling in love with me ‘Outside the Box’.  See I told you, short…simple…now please for the love of god come marry me.  P.S.  If you actually have anything on under your wedding dress, do me a favor and take it off.  I love you so much Alexia…you should be leaving soon.  I’m waiting!

Love Always,

Jasper ;) Spencer

I cried and laughed at the same time, Julie and Destiney read the note next and both started crying.

“I just can’t believe that in such a short time you found a man that would move mountains to be with you and see you happy.  Your mom and dad would be so happy for you.”  Destiney told me. 

“I sure hope so, I was so worried about what they would think for taking the job.  It all happened for a reason.”

Julie reapplied my makeup, looked at her watch and told us it was time to leave.

Spencer

Joe had delivered the letter
to the apartment building for me, because if I would have tried, no doorman or door would have kept me from getting in to kiss Alexia.  I was a nervous fucking wreck, pacing back and forth as guests started to arrive at the harbor.  I chose the harbor because when you looked out at the horizon the water seemed endless, to me that was how far my love stretched for Alexia. 

“Stop pacing, you’re going to burn holes in the soles of your damn shoes.” Derrick told me from
where he was leaning against the door way of the reception area. 

“What if she changed her mind?  What if…”

“Oh shut the fuck up, you can’t be serious.” He said.

“Well…”

Joe interrupted us and brought me an envelope, the writing on the outside was Alexia, “See what if she’s telling me to fuck off?” I said as I toyed with the flap of the envelope.

“Hey, I tried to win her over…”

“Fuck off.” I told Derrick.  Him and William both laughed.  I opened the envelope and pulled out the postcard that was exactly like what I had sent over for her.  On the back she had written;

Dear Spencer/Jasper,

I don’t even know where to begin, (I bet you’re worried I’m not going to show up…I’m on my way I promise). It was because of 2 postcards just like this that changed my life forever.  Not exactly the dream I had pictured but life never goes like we have planned out in our minds anyways.  I wouldn’t change a thing about my time here, meeting you, falling in love with you, denying that I was in love with you, then falling in love even harder with you was the best thing that has ever happened to me.  You’ve showed me what true love is, and I hope that for the rest of our lives we can still make each other smile even when we really just want to strangle each other.  Thank you for inviting me to your ‘Box’, I’ll never be able to thank you enough for falling in love with me. ‘Outside the Box’ (yes I cried writing this, I hope you get maybe just a little misty eyed? LOL)  Anyways, I love you and I will see you shortly.  P.S.  One of the surprises I have for you is…the menu for tonight is hamburgers and or chicken with French fries.  The only dipping sauce that will be served is…you guessed it Ranch with ketchup or vanilla ice cream. 

Love Always,
             

Ember/Alexi
a
XOXO

FYI…the
se postcards are not big enough to write wedding day notes on HAHA!

I smiled and put the postcard back in the envelope, “See she’s on her way.” William said from behind me. 

“Thank god!  Let’s go get in place before they come yelling at us.” 

My dad was sitting with his girlfriend on the front row, my mom right beside him with her boyfriend.  We had a long supper one evening and attempted to hash things out between them so that everybody could get along on this day.  Finally dad admitted that he was in the wrong and mom admitted they were better off being friends.  She apologized repeatedly to Derrick for trying to take his money, the night ended with her and dads girlfriend crying and hugging each other. 

The wedding march started playing, all of the guests stood up blocking my view, I tried to step forward but Derrick stopped me and pulled me back.  I closed my eyes then opened them, I could see her white dress as she passed the guests, but nothing prepared me for the sight of her in her dress.  She looked like an angel, like a princess out of a fairytale, the dress sparkled.  I wiped away a tear that rolled out the corner of my eyes. 

“Whoa, she looks…” Derrick trailed off when Alexia was standing with Harold waiting for the pastor to start the ceremony.  When Harold released her hand and place
d it in mine the familiar jolt of electricity shot through my body.  The look in Alexia’s eyes told me she still felt it too.

Seeing Spencer in his tuxedo took my breath away, his starburst blue eyes shined with the silk of his blu
e tie.  Derrick had to pull him back because he tried to come get me from Harold before we even made it to the front. 

The wedding was very short, but standing there promising my future
to Spencer and him promising his to me was the best feeling of my life. 

“Alexia, I know you’re trying to figure out why I chose to get married here, at the harbor.  When I look out I can’t see an end to the water, my love for you goes past that.  I made a promise to your parents and I’ll do everything in my power to keep it.”

I was worried that he had written his own vows but he hadn’t, the pastor announced us as Mr. and Mrs. Spencer Scott, the soul claiming kiss from Spencer left me weak in the knees and tears rolling down my face. 

Our journey as a married couple was just beginning, I knew we would have our ups and downs but it was all part of married life a
nd we were both ready to start the journey together. 

After the ceremony was over I went to a room inside the bed and breakfast that was just a few minutes from where the reception would be held, so that I could have the train removed from my dress.  “You should go keep the guests company while we do this.” I told Spencer.  He was following me and Destiney.

“Destiney I’ll take care of the train, you go socialize we’ll be there in a few minutes.” Spencer told her. 

“Okay, don’t be spending an hour banging my best friend, there’s a party waiting to happen.”  With that Destiney left.

I turned to Spencer, “The little hooks are under this?” I pointed at the small silk pleat. 

He sat down on a chair and carefully unhooked the train from my dress, he gently laid it on the chair next to where he was sitting.  Then turned back to me, “I got your postcard.” He said with a grin. 

I raised an eyebrow at him, “I got yours too, you didn’t mention anything about a party.” He stuck his hands under my dress, and slowly trailed them up my legs until he reached my hips. 

“Mmm I know it said something about not leaving this on though.”  He snapped the strap of my thong. 

“It completed the outfit.” I said and smiled down at him.

“You look fucking beautiful, in case I haven’t told you.” He moved his hand to the front of my thong, and slid it to the side. 

“We…”  I gasped when he pushed a finger inside of me. 

“We need to lea
ve for our honeymoon shortly.” he told me, while he continued to pull his finger out and push it back inside of me.  With his other hand he unbuttoned his tuxedo pants, pulled his already hard cock out and started stroking himself.  My pussy muscles contracted at the site of the head as Spencer gripped it tighter. 

“We, don’t have time to do this.” I whispered while still watching him stroke himself, as he continued to massage my clit with his thumb and hit my g-spot inside. 

“Trust me baby, it’s not going to take long.” He removed his fingers but continued to stroke his cock.  He lifted one side of my dress so I lifted the other side.  I straddled his lap, he moved his hand to push my thong off to the side again, “I told you it would just be in the way.” I sank down onto his cock.  “Stop, just feel.” He whispered.  With his cock stretching me and the tip pressing against my cervix we both sat still, I could feel his pulse through his cock.  I slowly rocked my hips, “Just like that, nice and slow, I love being able to feel all your little orgasms.” He pushed down on my hips trying to get deeper.  I gasped, he cupped my face in his hands and brought our lips together, I continued to gently rock my hips.  My orgasm built up so fast that I bit his lip, “Fuck.” He groaned then his hot cum shot out in jets inside of me. 

There was a pounding on the door, “Get off your wife and get your ass’s out here or I’m coming in!”  Derrick yelled. 

Spencer looked at me, “That was what we can call really fucking hot sex.  I love you Mrs. Scott.”

I kissed him, “I love you too.”

We both cleaned up and walked to the old airport hangar where the reception was being held.  It was decorated with white sheer fabric pleated along the ceiling, large peace lilies in two foot tall vases decorated the sliver clothed tables, and crystal blue lights were up lighting the walls while bluer crystal lights glistened behind the fabric on the ceiling. 

“You do know both of you have that, we just had sex glow’, right?”  Jocee asked and slapped Spencer on the chest before walking away.  The reception went great, the meal wasn’t what I told Spencer it was going to be,
instead it was chicken cordon bleu, white rice, and apple turn over.  We danced to ‘The Man’ by Aloe Blacc for our first dance as a married couple, Spencer sang every word to me and moved us swiftly to the beat of the music. 

We stayed for a few hours before Spencer finally announced that we would be leaving for our honeymoon.  He hadn’t told me where we were going, only that we would indeed be taking his private jet and that our bags were already loaded and the jet was ready for take-off. 

We spent one week in Australia, it was someplace that neither him nor I had ever been.  For the first two days we didn’t leave our room at the hotel, we spent them wrapped around each other, exploring each other’s bodies, and having sex.  Lots and lots of sex because Spencer said he had to make up for all the wasted time not having me in his life. 

I would never get use to him spending money
large
amounts of money on me.  If I looked at something twice he bought it, “Spencer that drives me crazy why can’t you just keep your money and spend it on something else?”

“For starters it’s
our
money, why can’t I buy you something I know you like and you’ll have to always remember this trip?”

“You’re impossible!” I told him.  He gave me a credit card with my name on it and told me that if I didn’t use it at least twice a month he would make me go shopping with my friends.  He knew how much I hated to shop, so I promised to spend his money at least twice a month.
