Wedding night?

When she returned Jason had already lifted the special food covers off the plates and had placed them on the dining table inside the room. While they enjoyed their freshly prepared breakfast, Jason asked her about the wedding. "So tell me sleeping beauty, did you enjoy yourself yesterday?" Jenny nodded and with a subconscious smile replied, "I did. It was amazing from the very beginning till the very end." Jason let out a soft, exhaled laugh. "I'm glad. Do you regret not using our personal vows?" Jenny shook her head to this question. "No. Some things should be kept between you and I. So, I am happy with our current plans." After that question Jason looked at her a bit more seriously as he said, "What did you think of the wedding night? Was it all you had imagined?"

Jenny almost dropped her fork from shock and with a startled stutter and a rapid heartbeat she replied innocently, "Wedding night? Oh yeah, I was asleep for the grand finale hmm? Sorry about that. I was just very tired. He. He. He." Though she tried to change the topic, Jason felt like something was off and he had felt that way since last night. So, he tried to confirm his suspicions and test the waters. "No worries. It was a very busy day for both of us. Luckily we have three weeks alone in this room. So, what we didn't get to last night, can be caught up to this morning." Jenny was startled once more and anxiously tried to laugh it off. "Don't be silly. How could we do that in broad daylight. You will have plenty of chances during these weeks together."

Jason pushed her a bit further and asked, "Why? Be it morning or night, the only ones here are you and me. We are so far up, no one will be able to see us and if you want it to be dark, we can pretend it is night and close the curtains. I am confident that they can block out all the light from outside. Now that we are officially married, isn't it only natural that we also consummate the marriage?" Jenny felt the walls narrowing in on her and tried a final hail Mary as she said, "What's the rush? You have been waiting for over a year, what's a few hours extra? I want it to be something special, not just something we have to do to complete the marriage process as if we are ticking something off a list."

Jason's eyes started to narrow as he though in his mind 'Well played. Well played. Let's see if you will call my bluff.' "No rush at all. I just like you so much that I want to be as close to you as possible and I just feel that something will keep us from becoming real husband and wife again if I wait till tonight." Jenny laughed awkwardly and said, "What could possible keep us when it's just you and me here?" Jason smiled a bit teasingly and said, "Well, for one thing, you might pretend to be asleep again. Or was a stomach ache the plan for tonight perhaps?" Jason saw Jenny's eyes grow wide as she thought she was caught and she blurted out, "You knew?!" In Jason's mind the word 'Gotcha!' was yelled out as Jenny had fallen for his bluff and had given herself away. "I didn't. Not until right now. Why would you pretend to be asleep?"

Jenny felt really bad and stupid to fall for Jason's bluff. And she told him, "I don't know why, but I am scared." Jason was surprised at this answer because they had been so close just a few weeks ago and she had seemed anything but scared. "Scared of what? The act itself or something else?" Jenny looked down as she answered. "Both. I am scared because it is my first time and when I think about losing my virginity I start to overthink and other worries enter my mind." Jason didn't want to pressure her and truly wanted to try and understand Jenny and set her mind at ease. But he didn't understand where this sudden fear came from. So, he asked, "But when we almost slept with each other that day that we made up you didn't seem scared at all. So, what happened?"

Jenny shrugged her shoulders. "I am not sure either. I guess I was caught up in the moment. I let my emotions lead me and didn't think of anything else but getting you back, but now it's different. I had too much time to think about our wedding night and what it would mean. About how everyone, all our friends and family members, will know that that was the night I lost my virginity. And the thought of that made me freeze up. Since you already thought I was asleep, it provided me with a convenient excuse to not have to face that moment and escape for a brief moment. So, though I was asleep in the beginning and by the time you came to bed, but I was awake from the moment we got off the plane till you placed me down on the bed. I am sorry for pretending I was asleep. I shouldn't have done that. I should have told you about how I was feeling but I didn't want to disappoint you and since I don't really understand my fear, I didn't know how to explain it to you. So, I chose to hide."
