"Do you know why it's called Maroon bells" I ask Jay. We've taken a small break to admire the view and mostly for me to get my legs working again.
Who knew hiking was such a killer on your thighs ?
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhUqkesIrJX
"Yea" he says smiling at me irresistibly
"When you grow up with a father who finds a fact for every moment you tend to collect a lot of general stupid knowledge" he snorts.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnHXtWBEqjU
"The mudstone rock is responsible for the maroon part of the name because of the red colour and the bells part was connected to some accident that happened but we won't go into that now" he says.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPQVQ87Co8V
I grab my phone and snap a picture of our current view.
"Here" he says gesturing for the phone.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsuO2RusN3O
"You are not escaping photographic evidence in those boots" he laughs snapping a pic of me.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMXbBRH1W4g
We begin walking again. Me following him through the trails. After a while he begins his song again and I start to wish I could play guitar along with him. However the mud is pretty slippy and I would probably fall holding the guitar and playing at the same time. I glance down at my boots and I'm thankful for his forethought when I see the mud all up the sides of them.

I hum along with him instead. I look at the amount he's carrying and marvel at his strength walking with it all on his back. He’s removed his shirt and is hiking topless. He stops shortly. And I hear water ahead.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJhfHmrySa1
I peer over his shoulder and see the view of the lake accompanied by a large moose.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU2ZuDH5Svf
"We shouldn't approach it" he says
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaISN3cFdlQ
"It's wonderful" I say taken aback by its sheer size.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ43Vf3ays8D
"There's bears too" he snickers upon looking at my expression.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUV12rALYd
"Black bears, we will be fine" he says.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5PbCFtPAwz
We continue walking in step. I make sure to place my feet carefully each time having slipped several times already.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSWYBPkoEEY
"We're heading to a campsite, we'll set up there. But first shall we get a picture at the top" he smiles back at me. And I must look a state, hot and muddy. Yet he still looks at me with devotion.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ84gi3y5Dgf
"Are we there yet" I smile at him.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOjKClwtQb7
He laughs, complete belly laughs. Glances at the top of the mountain and then back at me.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvlG8whVLwV
"Not a chance, we'll need to sleep all night and then aim for the top tomorrow." He says turning back to the trail and continuing on.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdgqcWggpZp
"I know of a great view though and I wanna take you there" he calls back and I can just imagine his wide smile.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYFu7kfs39k
We walk for what feels like hours, I'm distracted by his song and occasionally I sing along with him. I take in my surroundings to the full. No phones or distractions.
"I need to tell you this is both the most exhaustive and enthralling experience I have ever had" I say laughing.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdipFDVp92N
He laughs turns around to face me.
"Want a break" he says smiling.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCd42mEtPfx
"No let's plow on" I tell him and he kisses me.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSKZoq75oNP
"You're doing exceptionally well" he says
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzIYShd62rW
"We're about 10 minutes out" he calls back to me. The excitement I his voice evident.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxhHB0f7Mq
Eventually after what feels like hours he stops and just stares ahead. At first I worry that we're lost until I stand next to him and see the view.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR3iMuoy7xF
"Maroon lake" he explains and he's breathless just like me.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO0uVMlniHJ
With the peaks in the background, the water glistening below. I listen to the water, the calls of the wildlife and I breathe in the air. I turn to face him and his eyes are glistening.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw0UlkMPQhu
"Taylor" he says with eyes full of emotion.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWUL1IAn6ve
"I am going to spend the rest of my life with you" he says and he grasps both sides of my face delicately. He says it almost as if he's just convinced himself that this is happening. That this is real. I've said yes and we are going to be together forever, just us.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYNHErbVoM
"I could not be more happy to say that" he says and tears stream down both of our cheeks.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXY7K4O6ciF
"I love you with every single bone in my body" he says and he kisses me.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNmbaarhz4C
When he pulls back he looks at me in both of my eyes. And a wide smile spreads over his face. He grasps his phone out of his jeans pocket and turns it on us. He snaps a few pics of us.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkWFBYVcG87
"I'm gonna send them to my parents including my dad" he laughs
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOGPwNNGK5A
"Taylor you have done the impossible" he says laughing whilst typing out a message to his father.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7h5T8j3B1H
"What? made you contact your father?" I say laughing.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx9ON5tkcgV
"No you made our relationship better somehow; he's more contactable" he laughs.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVNME7cVx95
"I've just put; we're in aspen and we got a lodge" he says laughing.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtRh422DGBC
"He will ask for all of the details." He says.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVIMlNIY8DX
He pockets his phone and turns back to me. I kiss him whilst holding my phone up to take a pic of us with the peaks in the background.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1nIUNuacTI
"I'm gonna post this one, to my mum but also to social media" I say smiling.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAMA1juz33c
I upload it with the caption: Aspen + Jay = happiness. Call me corny but I like it.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJiIZ31UUmH
"The plan is to watch the sunset from camp, cosy by a fire so on the way there we're gonna collect some sticks" he smiles
"Are you ready for your payback by the way" he says.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6bphPwLItm
"What payback" I laugh and bite my lip. I know he's going to touch me I can see it in his stare. And I also know that he means for touching him in the cafe, I have to hear him say it.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5pmO1Sxr04
"Hand job in a cafe, seriously hot" he says softly once he's close to me.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡImIWFPJDKm
"I want you" he says in my ear
"Now" he smiles and his hand slips under my dress quickly swiping my panties to the side.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsKtUBpQXoc
"You are always ready for me" he whispers in my ear. He picks me up so I'm straddling him and carries me over to a more secluded spot. He sets me down hiking my dress up slightly.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyFbASqjU7V
He kisses down my chest pulling my dress down slightly at the top and paying my nipples lots of attention with his tongue.
"You drive me crazy" he says kissing down my tummy.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3G6AwQrkJU
He pauses at my lower tummy kissing it before hooking his arms around my hips. He kisses around my hips, just light kisses. All over my hips, all over my inner thighs. I push my hips up waiting for him to lick me.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb3vszBf7iY
"What would you like Taylor?” he asks me smiling.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsMAqlzW2tv
"Jay" I moan.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtSlVJPoSE0
"Taylor" he says kissing me again lightly on my clit
"Would you like this" he says and then he slowly runs his tongue over me.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW0cWdhr14S
I moan and he smiles.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRPyGJlZXmV
"Shhh" he says softly.
"Baby you taste so fucking good" he says running his tongue over me again.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwatyxEyv0j
He continues with his tongue and I feel myself getting close. My hands in his hair as I'm calling out his name.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJmR0EOBYR8
"Grind into me" he says softly. I'm beginning to think that he loves doing this; and that I am the luckiest women alive. I do as I'm told. I grind into him and it takes me all the way.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHdOhve269A
"Yes, beautiful" he says as I'm mid orgasm.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcvbwIRw7vG
"Jay" I say as I'm finishing.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhPxYbZXNKi
I finish gasping and grabbing at his hair.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVdsGlr8vNv
"We're square again" he says with a smile. He places my panties back on and smooths out my dress very smug with himself.
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvr0imiEn4c
When he stands he extends his hand and helps me up. We follow our trail to the campsite and I begin thinking about the food and the comforting fire before we have even got there.
