Chapter 204 - I Believe In You
Diana laughed; she didn\'t even understand why he was so sure that she was going to win the award. She accepted the deal because she knew she was not going to win anyway, she could just imagine the thousand things she would make him do. It would be fun.
\'\'Okay; \'\' Michael replied, turning back to the stage;
Diana stared at him surprisingly;
\'\'why do you even feel I would win? \'\' her brows creased with wonder, he had betted with her as though he was the one who summed the votes;
\'\'I just believe in you, even if you don\'t win, I want you to know that you were good enough for the prize, don\'t let anyone make you believe differently. \'\'
Diana\'s heart softened as she watched the man by her side; he didn\'t know her too well, but he was cheering her up even when she had already told him the odds were not in her favor. This kind of man was what any person would wish for;
\'\'And the Hollywood Actress Award goes to…\'\'
Diana\'s eyes turned back to the stage, her heartbeat calm, she wasn\'t expecting anything, so she wasn\'t apprehensive at all. \'\'
\'\'Diana Smith! \'\'
Diana\'s eyes bulged out in shock, and she jumped up from her chair, her hands flying over her lips; \'\'Oh my god! Oh my god! \'\'
She turned to Michael with surprise, he was smiling brightly as he stood up, and without thinking, she embraced him in a tight hug,
\'\'Oh my god!! \'\' she kept screaming, she could not believe it; last year when she won it, her manager had said that she had narrowly won, and the results were even contended but this year, she wasn\'t expecting to win at all, but she had won effortlessly.
\'\'You owe me a kiss love; \'\' Michael whispered in her ears, and she laughed out loud before she let him go. Hugging other actresses and actors, who were close to her briefly, she walked up the stage where \'Temptress\', the movie she was nominated for, played her best scenes in the background. As she walked up the stage she could not believe she was the one up there, now she looked at herself on the large screen, she realized that she was indeed good; she should give more credit to herself.
\'\'oh my god! \'\' she breathed out heavily as she held the award in her hands, her eyes becoming teary;
\'\'I wasn\'t expecting this, at all! \'\' she shook her head severally and then laughed, the audience joined her.
\'\'I\'m so grateful guys for making this possible, without you all, I won\'t be standing here, I\'m grateful for my family, my diehard fans, my manager, who keeps making me work harder; I love you all. \'\' She paused, waiting for their applause to die down; \'\'and I specially want to thank a good friend of mine, I know he is watching me now; \'\' she smiled, her eyes locking in Michael\'s amidst the multitude in front of her;
\'\'I just want to thank you for believing in me, even when I doubted myself, you believed in me, thank you for coming into my life. \'\' She waved to the audience amidst their thundering applause, as she walked down the stage.
….
Nicklaus sat down on the couch, his face looking very down as he worked on his laptop. Earlier, he didn\'t make an issue about her going to France because he planned to go with her, but when he told her he would come with her, she refused. He pleaded and pleaded but she had abruptly said no;
Nicklaus had not spoken to her for an hour now; although a married couple was in a room, it looked like the gathering of two strangers. Tiana glanced at her husband who had his laptop on his laps, his brows creased a little; she had never seen him angry with her, well, not exactly angry but this was the first time they had engaged in an argument since they got married.
She would have loved him to come with her to France but that was going to be selfish on her part. She didn\'t want him to leave his job and everything just to go with her to France. Tiana didn\'t even understand why he didn\'t want to see things from her point of view. He said he wasn\'t complaining, but she didn\'t want to hear a word of it. She knew him; he would not tell her about the work load but later would sneak out of bed in the middle of the night to go work in the study.
She zipped up her luggage and pulled it to a corner, then came to him on the couch; standing in front of him for a moment, she spoke;
\'\'Baby, my back hurts, I need a massage; \'\' although she had cramps on her back, it wasn\'t as bad as her face looked right now;
Nicklaus raised his eyes to look at her, her eyes were staring at him cutely, and her hands were massaging her neck as though in a lot of pain;
Nicklaus kept the laptop by his side and stood up from the couch, without glancing at her, he said; \'\'let\'s use the massage room. \'\' Tiana grinned behind him and followed; when they got to the room Nicklaus took the massage oil, and she quickly took off the short gown she was putting on causing her breasts to dangle in front of him. She walked to the table and lay on her stomach, watching him as he poured the oil on his hands, then rubbed it on her back; keeping the oil, he used his both hands to knead her back. A moan left her lips as she closed her eyes, letting him work on her back;
\'\'Hubby let\'s not quarrel okay?\'\' Tiana said after a long while but Nicklaus did not say a word, he just continued massaging every part of her back. Tiana pouted at his silence, he was just acting petty, how would he do what she asked and yet not want to talk to her?
She opened her eyes and glanced at him, he was expressionless as he massaged her evenly.
\'\'it\'s just one week, I don\'t want you stressing yourself out.\'\'
Nicklaus did not reply, after some minutes Tiana burst out laughing; \'\'you\'re being childish right now, hubby.\'\'
\'\'you\'re laughing at me?\'\' Nicklaus finally spoke but Tiana shook her head immediately,
\'\'no, no, far from that, I\'m just glad that you love me this much and don\'t want to be apart from me. I understand we just got together and you\'ll miss me very much but I promise to keep in touch, okay? We\'ll FaceTime, chat, call every single time I\'m not at work, just don\'t miss out on work because of me.\'\'
Tiana pouted sitting up on the massage table, with him standing in between her legs.
Nicklaus stared at her lovingly, his eyes falling to her lips, the next second, he seized it with his, kissing her deeply. Tiana gripped his shirt firmly, kissing him back with the same want. She felt his hands cup her breasts and her hands went swiftly to his UGG pants, pulling it low, her hand massaged his member inside his shorts as she felt it getting hard in her palm, Nicklaus groaned against her lips, his lips leaving her swiftly and kissing down her neck to seize her nipple in his mouth, Tiana moaned arching her back towards him, her hand digging into his thick curly hair. She bit her lower lip and her eyes rolled back as she felt him bite lightly on her hard nipple.
Tiana\'s hand pulled his member out and stroked as she felt him get rock hard in her palm,
"Wait, let me get the condoms, \'\'
Nicklaus spoke, stopping her hand as their ragged breath fanned their faces; she nodded and let go of him, Nicklaus stared at her flushed face as he wore back his pants. He gave her a kiss on the lips before walking out the massage room.
Tiana stepped out of her panties and sat back on the table, her eyes flickered over the oil on the table, and she smiled;
Surprise flashed through Nicklaus\'s eyes when he came back to the massage room. His wife lay on the table naked with the massage oil on her hand; her eyes turned to him, and she grinned;
\'\'Baby, my whole body hurts right now, I think I need a full body massage.\'\' she spoke with an alluring voice, her hand rubbing on her breasts.\'\' Nicklaus groaned as he walked to the table where she lay, he leaned and kissed her mouth deeply, sucking on her tongue, his hand taking the oil from her hand.
\'\'A full body massage cost $5000, are you in?\'\' Nicklaus whispered in her ear making her burst out with laughter,
"That\'s too much for a massage session. \'\' Tiana grinned playing along with him.
\'\'My skills are top-notch wife, and I can promise you full satisfaction.\'\'
Tiana chuckled, how did their never-ending silence turn to a sex play?
\'\'Alright I\'ll pay. Get to work.\'\' she grinned as she dropped her hands to her sides, giving him a full view of her body.
Nicklaus stood upright and opened the bottle of oil, pouring it on her breasts and tracing downwards to her belly, he kept the bottle by his side and began working on her breasts. His hands massaged her breasts slowly, concentrating on her nipples, until she was writhing from pleasure on the table.
His hands left her breasts and massaged down her shoulders and to her hands, he took each hand, massaging every spot judiciously. When he was done, he kneaded down her stomach to her thighs, a moan escaped her lips as she felt his hands part her legs and rub the insides of her right thigh. Tiana squirmed on the table as her core pulsated, she arched her hips forward, wanting him to touch her there, but Nicklaus did exactly the opposite.
