AUTHOR: Big Al KEYWORDS: Mg rom nosex ped oppai_loli SUMMARY: Their first Valentine's Day. ********** "Bye, Mama!" Jeanne Grace stirred and muttered something that sounded like a fond farewell as Melody bent down to kiss her head. Melody grinned at her mother as she went back to sleep, then grabbed her backpack - pink of course - and dashed from the house, bouncing down the sidewalk. The little girl opened the passenger side door to her boyfriend's car. "Good morning, Alec!" she chirped brightly, leaning in to kiss him. They savored their mingled taste for several moments, her sweet innocence and his musky maleness, then Melody ran her lil tongue lightly along his bottom lip before giggling. "Mmm," her handsome teacher said, looking groggy for a moment as they pulled apart, before recovering himself; Melody always felt light-headed herself after their kisses. "Not a worry about the ice on the sidewalk, huh?" he arched his eyebrow teasingly at her as she buckled in and he backed out of the driveway. "Nope!" she laughed. "Happy Valentine's Day!" Alec turned his head briefly from the road to look at her with such heartfelt warmth and adoration that her little heart melted into a puddle of goo. "Happy Valentine's Day, sweetheart." She was transfixed by his eyes, pools of dark chocolate brimming with life and passion, and sighed blissfully as he turned his gaze back to his driving. "Got the valentines?" the precocious 7 year old asked. He nodded, and she peeked in the backseat to see the bag of valentines that Alec had for the class. She'd helped write several of them with him, including Hannah's. Her questing eye didn't see any bouquet of roses though. Knowing how romantic her boyfriend was, she expected one, and couldn't wait to receive her first Valentine rose. Perhaps he was waiting till their date tonight, she postulated as Alec pulled into the school parking lot. They were early, more so than usual. As staff, Alec had to be at Pioneer Academy before the students, so Melody had to be as well, since he was her ride. But today, they were arriving extra early - before her mother had even awakened! - since they had to set up the valentine goodies. Hand in hand, they strode through the school halls, Alec gentlemanly toting her backpack for her. As they arrived at their classroom, he slung her backpack across his shoulder, freeing his hand to unlock the door. He turned a smile of anticipation upon her, and opened the door. Melody's jaw dropped, and her cute mouth worked soundlessly as she tried vainly to squeal her delight. At the front of the classroom, in the empty space where Alec typically stood as he taught the class, a small table and two chairs were set up. A single candle was lit at the center of the table, filling the room with a slightly smoky fragrance. Rose petals - lots and lots of deep red rose petals - were strewn in a plush carpeting beneath the table. "Fur Elise" - the song to which they had first met - was playing softly on the desktop MP3 player. She finally turned to her boyfriend, who was grinning at her. "Melody," he said in that deep baritone that always sent shivers up and down her spine, "will you be my Valentine?" The little girl giggled, and managed to put on a coy face. "Maybe," she allowed. "I'll have to think about it." Alec laughed, a twinkle in his eye, and offered his hand to her. She accepted, and he seated her in a chair before sitting down in his own. As if on cue - and probably by design, Melody reflected - two cafeteria ladies came in, bearing platters of hot breakfast. Buttery hashbrowns, scrambled eggs with cheese and bacon bits, sausage links, and fresh plump biscuits were laid down in front of them. The two women were beaming at them. "Happy Valentine's Day, you two," one said proudly, looking for all the world as though their relationship was her personal achievement. Melody laughed and thanked her, and the two women left. "I told you they would make a cute couple!" she said to the other cafeteria lady as they went out, and Alec and Melody blushed at each other. "We do make a cute couple," Alec smiled at her. "The cutest," she agreed, digging into her breakfast with relish. Alec just watched her for a few moments, a softness in his eyes, and she paused, swallowing a mouthful of eggs. "What?" His next words surprised her, yet seemed completely natural, spoken in a voice overflowing with warmth and affection. "I love you, Melody." He did; she could see it in his eyes, those big puppy dog brown eyes swimming full with his love for her! Her lil heart soared, and she felt like she was the happiest girl on Earth. "I love you too, Alec!" she said enthusiastically in her adorable French accent, meaning it like she had meant nothing else before. His breath caught slightly, as though her words had suddenly made him realize what he had just said. "You do?" he said, as though shocked by the idea. Melody reached over the table to rub his cheek, and he placed his hand over hers. "It's only obvious, silly." He grinned - not his typical crooked grin, but a big goofball grin of utterly silly happiness. "I love you, Melody," he said again. "I never thought I would meet such a wonderful, amazing, beautiful little angel." He drank in her face, alight with happiness at his words, her full pouty lips smiling up into her rosy cheeks beneath those gorgeous twinkling sapphires. Her hand never leaving his cheek, the lil girl came around the table and climbed onto his lap, kissing him deeply. Her eyes hooded as they made out, her lips parting as her breath came short. When at last they pulled apart, their faces inches apart, Melody whispered, meeting his eyes, "I love you more than anything, Alec." They sat like that for several long moments, staring blissfully at each other, marvelling at the sensation of their warm breath blowing onto each other's faces - Alec drinking in Melody's fresh sweet scent, she inhaling his musky maleness. Finally Melody stirred, and added, "Except maybe breakfast." He snorted a chuckle, and she giggled as he kissed her nose. She turned around so that she was still sitting in his lap - her favorite spot in the whole wide world - but facing the table. She leaned over the table to grab her plate, and spooned the food onto his. "Share?" she suggested, picking up her fork and digging back in. "Mmm," Alec murmured, his eyes closing briefly as he smelt her gorgeous sunshine hair. "A little late to ask, don't you think?" Melody giggled impishly between bites of food, and his fork soon joined hers on the plate as they ate their shared breakfast together, a man and girl deeply in love. The day went by on clouds. Alec and Melody were clearly lost in a world of their own, even as he taught the class. He would trail off in the middle of his lesson for long moments at a time as they just stared dreamily at each other, while the other 3rd graders would giggle and nudge each other knowingly. When the valentines were revealed from each student's personally decorated shoebox, Melody and Alec traded sly looks as everyone wondered who their secret admirer was. Of course, there were plenty more than just the ones they had made in each shoebox. Melody still had plenty of admirers who sent her cards despite her relationship with Alec. Hannah, though, was surprised at the sheer number of valentines she had - she didn't realize, but her dressed-up appearance at the Christmas dance two months ago had made quite an impression on several boys. She blushed as she saw the card signed from Roger, and then gasped in shock as she saw another one from the freshman boy Brian. But at last the day was over, and Alec dropped Melody off at her house. Although they were planning to go out on a special date that night, she wanted plenty of time to get ready and dress up. So it was that at about 5 o'clock that evening, Melody had clad herself in a red Valentine dress and was putting the finishing touches on her ringlets of hair as she donned her bow, when she heard something - was that music? Moon so bright Night so fine Keep your heart Here with mine Crinkling her brow, she went to her window and pushed it outward on its hinges, opening her bedroom to the brisk air. Her eyebrows shot up in delight as she saw Alec - dressed in a nice suit and holding a bouquet of pink and red roses - standing beneath her second floor window and serenading her! His marvelous baritone echoed across the yard as he sang to her, and he grinned in the midst of his a capella as she opened her window. Life's a dream....... We are dreaaaaaming Her lil heart fluttered with excitement and joy - it was like a scene out of Romeo & Juliet! - and she joined in, singing right back at him with her rich lovely soprano. Race the moon Catch the wind Ride the night To the end Seize the day...... Stand up for the liiiiiight Doors and windows started opening up and down the street as curious heads poked out to hear. Alec and Melody's voices joined in unison for the chorus, lost in each other as they sang their love. I want to spend my lifetime loving you If that is all in life I ever do A first-floor window opened, and Jeanne Grace smiled broadly to behold this wonderful spectacle of her daughter and the man she loved serenading each other unashamedly. Neighbors started gathering, listening raptly as the lovers' duet plucked their heartstrings. Take my hand Dance with me I want to spend my lifetime loving you If that is all in life I ever do I will want nothing else to see me through If I can spend my lifetime loving you Their belted their lungs out, pouring their hearts into the song, their passion evident in their voices and faces, and the world seemed to crash to a halt around them as they reached the final crescendo and drew out the end into a hushed afterglow. They just stared at each other, grinning, their cheeks rosy from the cool air and the exertion, and then blinked in surprise as the gathered neighbors began applauding. Whistles and cheers and encores greeted them as they noticed their audience for the first time. Melody giggled as Alec blushed beet red, and then she left the window, dashing downstairs to come outside and fling herself into Alec's arms where they devoured each other with kisses. When they finally pulled apart, they bowed and curtsied graciously to their audience, laughing gleefully, and Alec handed her the roses, which she sniffed appreciatively. He offered her his arm, and led her to his car, and soon enough they were driving off to their dinner date at the Little Louvre restaurant. As the neighbors left, Jeanne Grace smiled after the vanishing car. Melody had left her bedroom window open, but her mama was too happy for her little girl to care about the oversight. Chuckling fondly, she climbed the stairs and closed the window. She had a hunch that her daughter and Alec would, in fact, spend their lifetimes loving each other... ********** DISCLAIMER: This is always implicit in my stories, but let me make it explicit.
