I woke up on the floor with back pains because when it's cold outside and the floor is wood, you're going to be in a lot of pain. I turned my head to the right and saw a smiling Michael but he had his eyes closed. I didn't know whether or not he was sleeping. I tried to pry his arms from around me and they only tightened. I tried again and his grip got tighter each time. He'd loosen up and then if I moved, he'd tighten up. I figured he was playing with me, so I looked up and flicked his nose. Michael instantly started laughing.

Suesie: I knew you weren't asleep!

Michael: I can never win. I love messing with you.

Michael said kissing my head and rocking me back & forth.

Suesie: Mike, I gotta get up.

Michael: Why? I want you to stay for a while. I wanna hold you just a little while longer and talk to you a little while longer.

Suesie: I'm hungry, that's why.

I said pinching his cheek.

Michael: No, I wanna make it.

Suesie: I'm not letting you.

Michael: How so?

Michael said crossing his arms. I grinned as I crossed my arms.

Suesie: Because I said so..

Michael sighed and remembered.

Michael: Right..

I smiled and stood up. I went down the stairs and into the kitchen. I began to pull out the ingredients for breakfast and then began to make it. Michael must've followed me down because when I looked up, he was standing in the doorway.. Well actually leaning on it..

Suesie: I never said that you couldn't help.

I smiled.

Michael: May I help you cook breakfast?

Suesie: No.

Michael: Oh come on! You gotta let me do somethin'..

I laughed at Michael's reaction and continued to cook.

Suesie: If I have something I want you to do, then I'll call you.

Michael: You can't be serious..

Suesie: Says the man who wanted a housewife..

I said teasing him.

Michael: But I always cook!

Suesie: Not this time, pretty boy.

Michael arched his eyebrows and grinned.

Michael: So I'm pretty now?

Michael made he voice as girly ad he could and made a gesture that was also girly.

Michael: Where's my makeup? I need to look especially exquisite this morning so that the sun can capture my lovely dark chocolate brown eyes. Oh and I certainly can't wear these dirty rags out in public! Where's my dress? You know. My red, black and white one that is so short and tight that my wife can't keep her hands off of me? Why are you laughing? I'm serious! Did you wear it again? Oh how dare you!

I was dying of laughter and I couldn't stop. I was holding my sides and red all over. I had never expected that.

Suesie: No! No! Stop it! I wasn't-. I wasn't ready!

I said trying to calm down. I wiped my eyes and Michael started laughing at my reaction.

Michael: You look so adorable when you laugh! Oh my gosh, I love it!

Suesie: Go sit down.. Just go before I die of laughter again and something pops out.

Michael smacked his lips and spoke in that voice again.

Michael: Okay..

I Love this man. I almost burned the food because of how long it took me to calm down and I almost dropped the plates. I set the plates down and went to get a bandana. I covered Michael's eyes with it and his hands because I didn't want him to try and take off the blindfold. I put the food in front of him and waited. Michael stirred and couldn't take it.

Michael: Suzanne? Sue, are you there? Hello? Gosh.. Sue! Untie me! I'm hungry! Please!

I picked up his spoon and fed him. He loved it, according to his reaction. He was expressionless at first and then he smiled. I took off the blindfold and he looked at the plate. I hope he doesn't start nothing.

Suesie: Well?

Michael was silent for a good five minutes before he spoke. I sighed and walked off the first thirty seconds because I was sad. Did the food that I made really look disgusting to him? I came back after a while and sat down across from him waiting for the worst..

Michael: Untie me..

Michael said softly.

Suesie: What?

Michael: Untie me..

Michael said louder. I got up and slowly walked over to him. I untied his hands and began to walk away. Michael pulled me onto his lap by my waist and saw how sad I was. He caressed my cheek and I crossed my arms.

Suesie: May as well say it.. I already know it was bad.

Michael: No it wasn't.

Suesie: Yes it was. You didn't like the looks of it..

Michael: No! I'm surprised at how professional it looks, number one. Two, my hands were tied up so I couldn't do anything.

Suesie: Sorry..

Michael: It's okay. Baby, I want you to know that it was better than anything that I could've whipped up. I love everything about it and everything about you too.

Michael kissed my lips tenderly but quickly and I did nothing. Michael did it again only it was longer. Each time Michael kissed me, it was longer than the on before. By the fourth kiss, I was smiling and kissed him back. Everything had sunken in by then and so I kissed him back.

Suesie: Ready?

Michael: For court or for breakfast?

I put his hand on my stomach and saw him smile.

Suesie: For the baby.

Michael: Fatherhood couldn't come any faster. I'm ready.

Suesie: Basically seven more months to go.

Michael: I shall count down every second of every minute of every hour of every day of every week of every month until they arrive.

Suesie: Sweet love of mine.

Michael grinned.

Michael: Do you wanna make that happen?

I thought about what he said and then it clicked. I hit his arm.

Suesie: You dirty boy! I wasn't even thinking of that!

Michael: You are now. Boy you got a strong arm.

Michael said holding his arm and smiling.

Suesie: You earned it.

Michael: I bet I did..

Michael said kissing my lips again. I pushed him back.

Suesie: I thought that you were hungry?

I said teasingly.

Michael: Oh I am.. But not for food.

I tried to get up but Michael pulled me back down and leaned me back. I let out a playful scream and laughed as Michael kissed me repeatedly all over my face.

Suesie: Michael! Let me go!

Michael: Mwah! No! I Love You and need to love you! Mwah!

The kisses tickled me all over and so did his hands.

Suesie: You're gonna kill me!

Michael: We don't want that. Then I won't have who I need.

He said stopping everything and looking at me.

Suesie: Michael?

Michael: Yes?

Suesie: Put me down.

Michael: But I wanna hold you just a little while longer.. Please.. Let me hold you?

Suesie: You already are. Let me go Michael.

Michael: Just do one thing first.

Suesie: What Mike?

Michael gave me an innocent look and smiled.

Michael: Kiss me.

I grinned and stood up. I wrapped my arms around Michael and nuzzled his neck.

Suesie: You want a kiss?

Michael bit his lip and nodded. I grinned.

Suesie: You can keep on wanting that kiss cause ya ain't gonna get it!

I yelled as I ran away.

Michael: Get back here!

Suesie: Catch me if you can!

Michael: Give me my kiss!

I ran somewhere and caught my breath. I smiled as I heard his footsteps all around the house. He suddenly stopped directly in front of the door after passing it up a few times and I knew that he was grinning. There was nothing I could do but sit there and pray. I heard a thump and a sigh. He must be tired.. Poor baby. I wanted to transport through the door and hug him from behind. Then, and only then would I give him a kiss. I reached up and locked the door as quietly as I could but then..

Click!

Michael: Suzanne? Open the door! I knew it! I knew you were here!

I didn't answer for a while and then he started to try and open the door.

Michael: Suzanne!

He pleaded.

Suesie: Do I have to kiss you?

Michael stopped and was quiet for a vey long time.

Suesie: Well?

Michael: Umm.. I'll let you know when you come out.

Suesie: Oh no, we're not playing this game again. It's my turn and my game and I say I ain't gon' kiss ya.

I said letting my New Yorker accent show up. Michael chuckled at my reaction and shrugged.

Michael: Alright.

I opened the door and walked out slowly. I looked both ways but I didn't see anyone. I strolled out and was closing the door when I saw him in a position of plotting. He had his arms crossed, his foot over the other and was grinning as he leaned against the wall. I smiled sweetly and stepped back.

Suesie: Are you going to let go free and forgive me for not kissing you instead of forcing it?

Michael raised his eyebrow and gave me a convoluted grin. I chewed my lip and held my breath.

Michael: What do you think?

He said as he came closer to me.

Suesie: I think you will do what I say.

Michael wrapped his hands firmly onto my waist and looked down at me.

Michael: I think I'll kiss you.

Suesie: I think not..

Michael: And I think you can't stop me.

Suesie: Well I think I can and I will.

Michael: You won't.

Suesie: And why not?

I saw Michael's grin grow wider.

Michael: Because..

Suesie: Because why?

Michael: This..

Michael tilted me back and kissed me.

Suesie: So Mr. Player.. What's your game?

Michael: You are my game.

Suesie: How do you plan to play me?

Michael told me in my ear how he would play me.. What a sexy devil a married.. He stood back biting his lip and grinning.

Michael: Wanna play?

He said in a daring, playful and sexy tone.

Suesie: Do I have to answer?

Michael: Do I have to answer for you?

Suesie: What if I say no?

Michael: You'll suffer until you give in.

I giggled as I thought 'Impossible'.

Michael: Nothing is impossible in my book baby.

I stopped smiling and I looked at him confused.

Suesie: How did you-.

Michael: You were thinking out loud.

He grinned as he cut me off. I nodded and then thought about what I was going to say. 'Suffer or die. Suffer or die. Suffer.. Die?' I thought.

Suesie: I say no.

Michael: No what?

Suesie: I ain't gon' play ya game.

I said letting my New Yorker accent show up with a little bit of ghettoness. Michael's eyes looked sheepish and he approached me.

Michael: I dare you to use that voice with me again. I dare you.

Suesie: And if I do?

Michael smiled weakly and pulled his lips inside of his mouth. He then let it slowly peek out at me and it was then that I got the message.

Michael: Get it?

Suesie: Got it.

Michael: Good.

I shook my head.

Suesie: Let me get this straight.. If I use my native tone, you'll get amorous. If I give in, you'll have sex with me. If I look at you a certain way, you'll want sex. If I resist you, you'll want me more. Which leads up to when I have this baby, you'll try to have 'Thank you' sex with me. Am I correct?

Michael: You forgot early morning, late night, shower time, bath time and no reason needed sex.

He said putting emphasis on the last word. I got chills and for the first time in forever.. I loved it.

Suesie: I know what you're problem is.

Michael: And so do I.

Michael said dropping his voice deeper. He's killing me!

Suesie: You're a sex addict.

Michael: Yeah-. Wait no! No I'm not! I just want to show you I'm sorry and how much I Love You and I want to let you know how beautiful you are. I never got to make love to you when I went to work. Now that we have the time.. Well?

I took a lot of steps back and opened the bedroom door. I looked at the clock.. We need to get going.

Suesie: It's 4:37.. I ain't doin' nothin' wit cha right now.

I let my mother's accent shine through me like I was her. Michael only seemed to be focused on me.

Michael: Baby please say something again.. Please.

He whispered the the second 'please' in my ear.

Suesie: U-um.. M-Michael? It's f-four-th-thir-rty-s-sev-ven.

Michael: And?

Suesie: We gotta be in the bedroom-. COURTHOUSE! Courthouse! I meant courthouse, by five.

Michael grinned and pulled me closer.

Michael: What time should I meet you there?

Suesie: Five! We have be there at-.

Michael: Not that.. What time?

Oh shit..
