Late that evening, Maynard and Jennifer left the party in a flurry of well-wishes. “Where are we staying tonight?” Jennifer asked, surprised she didn’t know. “My suitcase is packed and in my cabin.”

“How would you feel if we just stayed in your cabin then? I’d planned to take my new bride back to the hotel with me, but it sounds like your place is a bit more spacious. We can stop by the hotel and gather my things.”

“We can if you don’t mind that I’ve packed up most everything. I was expecting last night to be the very last time I slept there.” Jennifer followed Maynard to the hotel where his car was parked. “We can put your suitcase in the car and drive over to my cabin. I have to have everything out in a week, so we can even spend the next week on the ranch if we’d like.”

“Sounds good to me,” he said, grinning at her. “I’m glad it was you, Jennifer.”

She sighed, hoping he still felt that way in a month or two. “And I’m glad it was you.” She was. She just hoped she hadn’t completely ruined his life by marrying him. Shouldn’t a man have more of a choice in the matter?

She waited in the lobby while he ran up to his room to get his suitcase. She thought about following him, but decided she’d rather be a bit more unobtrusive than that. While she waited, she sat in the lobby of the hotel, thinking about how much different things looked as a guest.

A few minutes later, he was back down with his suitcase in hand—a small wrapped gift in the other hand. “I got you a wedding gift. I wasn’t sure what you’d like, so I had to guess.”

Jennifer stared at the small package. “Do you want me to open it here?”

“Nah, let’s wait til we get to your cabin.”

As they walked to his car, her heart was beating a mile a minute. She couldn’t believe she was married to this man she was so incredibly attracted to, and…he probably expected her to make love that night. She hoped he’d wait, but she didn’t really have the right to ask him.

All the way to her cabin, she fretted about how she’d feel if he wanted to go through with the wedding night immediately. She was attracted to him, yes, but she wasn’t sure she was ready for that without knowing him a bit better first. She knew some women went to bed with a man on the first date, but she was not one of those women, and she never had been.

Finally, as he pulled up in front of her cabin, she got up the guts to say what needed to be said. “Do you think we could spend some time getting to know each other better before the wedding night?”

He gave her a huge grin. “I was going to suggest that.”

Jennifer stared at him in surprise. “You were?”

Maynard nodded emphatically. “I’m not the kind of man who goes to bed with a woman on the first date, you know.
