    That evening he had moved into his home, smiling hearing the clatter of pots coming from the kitchen.  As he had entered, she had her back to him closing one of the higher cupboards, Dante moving quickly to wrap his arms around her waist, laughing as she had squealed in surprise.
     
    “Dante!!” her laughter filling his ear s , as turning in his hold she had draped her arms around his neck smiling happily up at him.
     
    “Good day?” h er voice sensual as her eyes had flicked over his face falling to his lips.  Groaning softly he had fought the desire to kiss her, smiling.
     
    “Not bad...pretty good” .
     
    Sam moving in harder against him, as he had pulled away from her, grabbing her hand and pulling her from the kitchen, Sam antha giggling with expectation, frowning as he had led her to the living room and not the bedroom .  Pouting she had looked at him with a sigh .  However as he had turned and looked so intently at her, her look had become more concerned
     
    “Is everything OK Dante?”
     
    Her eyes seeking answers, turning to confusion as he had smiled something so warm glowing in the dark depths of his eyes.  Silently he had taken her hand, slowly dropping down onto one knee, realisation falling on Samantha as she had felt tears rise to her eyes.
     
    “Sam” he had began looking up into her shell shocked face .
     
    “I know that we have not been together for long, but I also know how I feel... and I love you Samantha Trey” , h is voice full of emotion as she had stood frozen and silent.
     
    “Will you marry me ? ”
     
    As her hands had flown to cover her mouth, the tears had finally fallen, Samantha sobbing with pure joy as she had nodded her head, Dante once more rising and pulling her into his arms .
     
    “Yes, oh yes” she had finally managed, her lips kissing him, both of them laughing together happily.  Pulli ng back she had looked up , her eyes full of such devotion .
     
    “I love you so much Dante” her voice breaking with emotion and honesty, Dante feeling something so deep within him lurch.
     
    “I was just so happy being with you...I never thought you could feel the same way” .
     
    Smiling, he had dragged her down onto the large couch, pulling her in tightly.
     
    “Oh Sam...How could I not .  You are the most wonderful person I have ever met” , s urprising himself with the honesty of his words.  She truly was the best person he had met.  Pulling her in even tighter, her head tucked under his chin he had frowned in confusion at this thought.   Gently stocking her hair, he had smiled as she had tucked her feet up beside him, a sigh of complete happiness leaving her.  Nuzzling her he had began speaking softly.
     
    “I was thinking that we could get married soon, not have a long engagement”.  Samantha had looked up at him in surprise, her features still glowing with joy .
     
    Chuckling she had scrunched up her nose at him.
     
    “I promise that I am not going to run away you know” , Dante laughing softly.
     
    “Well I am very glad to hear that........but I guess that I just think that the sooner we are married.....well the sooner we can look at maybe starting a family” .
     
    At these words Sam had pulled back in stunned surprise.
     
    “You want children?” she had asked, a small smile on her lips, the thought of a little Dante suddenly filling her with more happiness than she would have ever believed.  He had smiled.
     
    “Well I’m 28, not getting any younger...and I just know that I have found the right person.  I guess it feels right” his expression suddenly so serious “We feel right” .
     
    Groaning softly she had reached up to kiss him, Dante pulling her into his arms and rising with her strutting with determined steps into the bedroom. 
     
    There love making had been slow, languorous and gentle the knowledge that they would be together adding to the intensity they shared.   As they lay in each other’s arms ,
