Tanya removed his velour jacket. About to toss it to him, she felt an object in the pocket. "What's this?"
Kevin pulled the coat from her. "No fair. You can't go through my pockets." He laughed.
"It has to be that mysterious little package you got at the post office," she said, trying to grab the jacket from him.
"Uh uh…no fair! Hands off!" Kevin laughed harder, holding the coat high above his head. "Patience."
Tanya jumped high, trying to reach the coat. "It's for me, I know it! It's a present, a surprise…" She giggled like a small child.
"Yes. A surprise. So, close your eyes and go sit on the bed. And don't peek!" As Tanya complied, Kevin sat close beside her. He took her hand and slid a silver bracelet around her wrist. The bracelet was square, flat, and rigid.
"Can I open my eyes? I still don't know what it is!" she joked.
"Not yet," he said. He kissed each eyelid tenderly. "Now you can."
Tanya removed the bracelet and examined it. Engraved inside, it said, "Yours forever, Kevin." She threw her arms around him. "Oh, Kevin, thank you! It's lovely."
"Tanya, I want you to know that you're the best partner I could ever dream of."
She nestled her head against his chest. "I love you, Kevin. I'd give up everything I have to be with you."
He began to kiss her as he gently removed each item of clothing from her eager body, then lifted her into the middle of the bed.
