“What’s Miette’s?”
“This cute cupcake place right next to Blue Bottle.”
“Oh, I’m so excited!” I practically skipped as we continued walking. “One thing, though?”
“Yes?”
“Can we catch a cab back?” I looked around at the hill we’d just climbed down. “I don’t really fancy walking back up all these hills.”
“Ha ha, that’s fine. I have other ways for you to get exercise tonight.”
“Oh yeah?”
“Oh yeah!” He licked his lips, and we both laughed. We continued walking in comfortable silence and I looked around me with interest. This was my first time in San Francisco and it was truly a beautiful city. It reminded me a bit of New York City, except for the fact that it was full of hills.
“Oh, look, a farmers market!” I said and ran over to a guy selling some paintings. “These are amazing.”
“Thank you,” the man said, and I watched as he painted something on the canvas in front of him.
“He’s so good,” I whispered to Aiden, and he nodded and looked around.
“Do you want a painting?” he asked me and I shook my head.
“No, no.” I grabbed his hand. I didn’t want him thinking that I was just using him to buy me lots of cool and expensive gifts. We continued walking through the different stalls until we came to a lady sewing what appeared to be teddy bears. I walked over to the table and stared at the handmade bunnies, owls and bears and my heart melted. They were all so cute and original.
“These are great.” I smiled at the lady.
“Thanks, I make them all be hand myself.” She smiled at me. “I use old sweaters and felt them.”
“Oh, cool.” I looked at them again and sighed. I knew I was too old to buy a teddy bear for myself, but I really wanted one.
“Looking for a gift?” she asked me, and I shook my head.
“No, I’m looking for myself.” I laughed and she grinned at me.
“Hey, what do we have here?” Aiden joined me and smiled at the lady. “Hello.”
“Hi.” She smiled and then looked at me. “Is this your husband?”
“Oh no.” I blushed. “He’s my …” My voice trailed off as I looked at Aiden. I felt slightly embarrassed to call him my boyfriend in front of him.
“I’m her boyfriend.” He grabbed my hand and squeezed it. “And she’s my insufferable girlfriend.”
“You got that right,” I joked and started to move away. “We should go.”
“No, not yet.” He shook his head. “I want to buy you one.”
“Oh no, Aiden,” I protested. “You don’t have to do that.”
“I want to.” He smiled at me and picked up a small red bear with a yellow face and big black nose. There was a plaid green heart covering the stomach of the bear with red stitching around it and it looked absolutely adorable. “I want to get you this one.” He handed it to me and then turned to the lady. “How much?”
“Twenty-eight dollars, please,” she said eagerly, and I smiled at her as I held the bear to me. Aiden paid and then we left the stall.
“Thank you,” I said quietly. “You didn’t have to buy me anything.”
“I wanted to,” he said softly and pulled me to the side. “That bear represents me, and that heart covering the front of its body represents my heart and the love I have for you.”
“Love?” I said, my eyes widening.
“Yes, love.” He nodded and his eyes burned into mine. “It’s always been you, Alice. I love you. And I want you to know that. My heart beats for you.”
“I love you too,” I said back. “Though my heart beats to keep my body running.”
“Oh, Alice.” He laughed and kissed me. “You do know that I didn’t bring you here because Liv couldn’t make your birthday, right? Liv couldn’t make your birthday because I told her she needed to go out of town because I wanted to bring you to this concert and spend the weekend with you.”
“Oh, Aiden, I had no clue. This is so romantic. Thank you.”
“It’s the least I could do.” He laughed. “I mean, you took me to a BDSM store just for fun. I needed to make sure your birthday was a blast.”
“Well, you have definitely done that.” I kissed him on the cheek. “It’s been perfect.”
“Well, the best is yet to come.” He grinned. “I have an amazing cake for you as well.”
“Oh?”
“Yes!” He grabbed my hand. “You can eat it when we get back to the hotel.”

“Oh, what a perfect day,” I said as we walked back into our hotel room and I held my bear to my heart.
“It’s not done yet.” He smiled.
“Oh?”
“You still have your birthday cake and another surprise.”
“What surprise?” I asked excitedly.
“Go into the bathroom and come out in ten minutes.” He grinned. “Then you’ll see.”
“Ooh, okay.” I squealed and put my stuff down. “Ten minutes?”
“Yes, come out in ten minutes. And no peeking.”
“I won’t peek.” I laughed and hurried into the bathroom and waited. I wondered what my surprise was going to be. I was so excited I could barely stand it. I looked at my watch and groaned. Only one minute had passed. “Can I come out yet?” I shouted, but got no response. This was going to be the longest ten minutes in the history of time. I stared at my watch for what seemed like forever and then I opened the bathroom door slowly. “I’m coming out,” I said as I walked out. “Aiden?” I said as my eyes adjusted to the dark.
“Oops, hold on,” he said. “I forgot to light the candle.” He nodded towards the night table. “The lighter is up there. Can you light it for me, please?”
“Okay.” I stood there and walked over so that I could light the candle. “Oh.” I giggled as a warm light filled the room.” “Oh, Aiden,” I said as I walked over to the bed. Aiden was lying on his back, naked. There were strawberries on his chest, covered in whipped cream and chocolate. I looked down his body and gasped as I saw whipped cream covering his penis. “Aiden, what’s going on?” I laughed.
“Happy birthday,” he sang out. “It’s time for your birthday cake.”
“You’re my birthday cake?” I laughed.
“I’m good enough to eat.” He grinned up at me. “And it’s all yours.”
“Aren’t you hungry as well?” I said as I bent down and licked some whipped cream off of his chest. “This is yummy.” I licked some more cream off and then licked my lips. “Let me take my clothes off first, so that they don’t get dirty.”
“Sounds good to me,” he said huskily. “And yes, I’m hungry as well,” he said as he stared up at me. “I hope that I’ll get to eat after you.”
“That can be arranged,” I said as I pulled my clothes off.
“I have some more whipped cream.”
“Hmm, maybe you should eat first, then?” I laughed.
“Do you want me to eat first?” He started to sit up eagerly and I pushed him back down.
“I’ll eat first, thank you.” I kissed him and then joined him on the bed. My naked body pressed against his, and I could feel the mixture of cream and sauces against my skin. “This feels weird.” I laughed as I licked down his neck. I then moved to his nipples and sucked them gently and flicked them with my tongue before moving farther down. I then consumed his cock as if it were a banana split and it was the most delicious banana I’d ever eaten. Aiden groaned underneath me as I sucked on his cock, and I grinned to myself when he flipped me onto my back and spread my legs and started going down on me.
“Oh, Aiden!” I moaned as his tongue flicked against my clit and then entered me. “Oh, Aiden!” I screamed, unable to stop myself as waves of pleasure filled me.
“You taste better than cake,” Aiden said as he kissed me after I’d climaxed on his face.
“And you have a tongue that’s out of this world.” I held him close to me. “Maybe you should be crowned the new Mr. Tongue.”
“I think I’d like a new name.”
“What about Mr. Big?”
“I like that.” He grinned.
“No, there’s a Mr. Big in Sex in the City. What about Mr. Cocky?”
“Make it Mr. Big Cocky and you’ve got a deal.”
“What about Mr. Big Dick?” I said and squealed as he bit down on my lower lip.
“What about Mr. Pleasure Maker?” he said as he licked my lips.
“What about Mr. Pleasure?” I said finally and he nodded.
