Galadriel sat out on her brick front porch.
She was surrounded by somewhat of a mess; packing tape on the floor next to her right boot, empty boxes laying in a disorderly pile to her right, and the stuffed animal her daughter decided to leave at the last minute clutched to her chest.
It was a beautiful August day- the sun was shining early in the morning, the grass in the front yard was a nice green from a late summer rain, and the dogwood tree across the street was sending beautiful scents towards her nose.
None of it really cheered her up though, and she gave in to her sadness that she had been holding back all morning and just started quietly crying.
"I'll miss her too, you know."
Her long-time husband came out onto the front porch holding two ice-cold glasses of iced tea.
Galadriel looked to her right as her husband Halbrand sat next to her on the front porch. Her breath caught in her throat at how beautiful he still was, even though they had both started aging for the first time in thousands of years only 20 years ago.
Galadriel worried that her formerly Maiar husband would get bored with their life, now that their only daughter left for college for the first time.
Years ago, when Galadriel and Halbrand decided to sail to Aman together; they made a pact that they would accept any punishment the Valar would give to them as long as they could be together. So the two of them gave up all of their powers and their immortality and chose to live a mortal life in East Arda in the 2000s. They bought at three-bedroom brick home in the state of Pennsa and tried to assimilate as best they could. Galadriel got pregnant with Celebrian pretty much right away which made their assimilation easier as they were swept up into preschools, youth sports, birthday parties, band concerts, etc. Halbrand took to their new lifestyle with such flourish, that Galadriel admittedly became a little jealous at the ease of which he made himself invaluable to the community.
But now, it seemed to Galadriel that it was coming to an end. She had watched Celebrian drive off in her silver Suburu Legacy about an hour ago, on her way to her small liberal arts college in West Pennsa.
"I KNOW she's going to do great..." Galadriel started, "but I'm going to miss her SO much. And I'm worried you are going to get bored with just me now that you no longer have your powers."
Halbrand clucked his tongue and rolled his eyes a little bit at Galadriel. "Well, that's actually KIND of what I came out here to talk to you about now that she is gone. I have a BIG surprise for you. I've been planning a romantic road trip for us to spice things up now that we are officially Empty Nesters." He wiggled his eyebrows suggestively at Galadriel
"We are going to drive to Arda City to stay at Caesar's Palace."
Galadriel's eyes went wide with surprise, and then she started to tear up a little. "How long have you been planning this?"
"Oh, quite a while actually. Ever since Celebrian got accepted into that little college that she is at now. I knew you'd be feeling kind of low with her gone, so I'm going to prove to you that I still can show you a good time." Halbrand sank to his knees in front of Galadriel on the porch, holding both of her hands in his own. "I don't regret ANYTHING."
"We are going to take the next two weeks to enjoy just being together the two of us. In fact, the first part of the surprise is pulling up in front of us right now."
Right then, a huge Cadillac Escalade drove in front of their house. A guy got out of the huge vehicle and tossed the keys to Halbrand, who caught them deftly. "Thanks for being such a good customer of Enterprise Rent-a-Car, Mr. Smith." The car delivery person then was picked up his friend who had been following the Cadillac.
Galadriel looked at Halbrand with surprise. "Oh my gosh honey! I don't even know what to say!! That vehicle is HUGE, will you be able to drive it with no problem?"
Halbrand's cockiness manifested in his response, "Of course! You know I'm verrrrry good at wielding large implements." Galadriel rolled her eyes at him and then went inside the house to start packing.
An hour later, Halbrand got into the driver's seat of the Cadillac, while Galadriel climbed into the front passenger seat.
"Galadriel, I promise that we are going to have a great time on this trip, OK? Let's enjoy this." Halbrand then put the car into Reverse gear, put his right arm over the back of Galadriel's seat, and started to carefully backup the large vehicle. While he was doing this (they only have on-street parking at their house so the parallel parking can be quite tricky) Galadriel used her left hand to reach out and stroke his upper thigh, dragging it all the way up to his crotch. Halbrand quickly braked the car in surprise but recovered and sent her a loving and flirtatious smile. "Yeah, I think we are really going to enjoy this." He put the car in drive and then headed towards the interstate.
****************************
When they got to Caesar's palace in Arda City about 6 hours later, Galadriel was starting to get a little tired and cranky from being the car for so long. However, Halbrand asked her to stay in the lobby for a few minutes while he checked them into their hotel and "got things set up." She humored him, as she now understood how much he had been looking forward to surprising her with this adventure.
The hotel was super-glitzy and unapologetically cheesy, from the huge statues of supposed Roman and Greek gods (which Galadriel and Halbrand both knew where NOT the true Valar)
Galadriel wandered around the mirrored lobby, making sure her appearance was as put together as could be after 6 hours in a car. She soon saw Halbrand exit one of the elevators, gesturing for her to follow him back up to their room.
As she entered the glass elevator, her husband brushed his long fingers across her left hip, making her whole body shiver. He still had that capability, to instantly make her fill with desire with the slightest touch. Galadriel looked at him, and then reached past his body to push the "stop elevator" button so that they stopped mid-floor. She could smell him so strongly in the small space; leather, ash, incense, and male sweat. It instantaneously made her so wet, even before she knelt down in front of him onto the elevator floor. Looking up at Halbrand, she was reminded of the first time she saw him- looking up at him from the water to see his face above her on the raft. It was another lifetime but one that neither one of them wanted to forget for too long as they knew how lucky they were to still be together even though their time was now limited. Galadriel pulled his zipper all the way down, and reaching into his underwear she grabs his cock and pulls it out in front of her. She puts her nose right on the tip of his penis and takes a deep inhale, wanting to let him know that every one of her senses *appreciated* him. The tip of her tongue darted out and licked his tip, causing her husband to release a quick breath. He put his hand in her hair lightly, tugging her back up onto her feet.
"Oh, believe me, my love, we will have plenty of time for that. But I'm so excited for you to see what I have waiting for you in our room." Halbrand then zippered back up and turned the elevator back on. He took the time to give Galadriel a gentle kiss, so that she knew this was in no way a rejection, just a "this is on hold until later." The elevator reached the top floor of the hotel, and Halbrand used the card key into their room.
Upon opening the door, Galadriel's eyes became as big as saucers, for as soon as they entered the suite, she saw that right in front of them stood a two-story champagne glass
She could see that the large champagne glass was actually a jacuzzi, as there was a spiral staircase up to the bowl of the glass. There was also the largest bed she had ever seen in her life, and on top of the covers, Halbrand had spelled out "I love you" in rose pedals. There were lit candles everywhere, and her husband went over to the small table to grab two already filled champage flutes, handing her one.
"I propose a toast," he started. "To the next phase of our life together. I want to shower you with so much love and attention on this trip so that you never have to doubt that you made the right choice in becoming mortal with me."
She noticed he seemed a little nervous and teary eyed and immediately went to reassure him. "You know I love you and our life. We've been surprisingly great parents; and yes, I'm a little disappointed that part of our life is over but we are admittedly two of the most adventurous people in the current world. I think that I would like to SHOW YOU how much I appreciate everything you have done here for us, but also just HOW adventurous I can still be."
Halbrand gave her a questioning look.
She took a deep breath and then said, "I'd like to play Galadriel and Sauron."
Halbrand went totally still. After a minute, the tip of his tongue came out to lick his bottom lip. "I, uh, didn't bring the bag."
"I did. That's what I went back into the house for before we left." She straightened up, and took her right palm and physically pushed Halbrand over to the huge bed.
His back fell upon the bed, but his eyes kept control of hers, never breaking eye contact. She reached into her bag, and pulled out the crown. "Now, strip." she ordered.
While Galadriel watched her husband strip, she focused on keeping calm and in control. She wanted to be the one in charge here and show Halbrand that the sacrifice of his Maia powers were not in vain.
She watched as he slowly removed his tight white t-shirt over his head, and then pulled down his jeans, fully removing them from his body. Once he was just in his underpants, she took the crown and got into bed with him. Galadriel placed the crown on his head and sat back on her heals, admiring his beauty. He truly looked like a Caravaggio painting. Then, she took out the two sets of hand cuffs from her bag. First, she attached his right wrist to the right bed post, and then using the other set of handcuffs, attached his left wrist to the opposite bed post. He did not say anything at all while she was doing this, merely watching her with interest.
She then took out the soft black blindfold and carefully wrapped it around his eyes and head, all the while trying not to be affected by his loving smirk. Once the blindfold was on Halbrand, she stood up off of the bed and just took a minute to drink in how gorgeous he looked lying there in front of her.
He was completely naked, laying on his back in the black silk sheets. He wore the crown on his head, the blindfold, both hands handcuffed and nothing else. He looked completely at ease in front of her, totally trusting that her plan would not hurt him. Galadriel did wonder sometimes if he secretly DID miss his Maia powers and just didn't confess this to her so as not to cause her any worry. So she was going to do everything she could to make it up to him for as long as they were able to enjoy each other.
She took all of her own clothes off herself and was soon totally bare. She climbed up onto the bed next to Halbrand, and automatically her right hand light brushed his half-hard cock. It only took this small touch from her in order for his member to become completely engorged. She could smell his excitement, a truly male scent that just intoxicated her. She leaned down and lightly licked his cock from base to tip several times, just giving him a little taste of what was to come.
She surprisingly got a little emotional right at this moment, tears filling her eyes.
"You know I think I've loved you since that raft. I think it's amazing what you've done for us with this little trip."
"Then SHOW me, Elf." Halbrand's gruff voice was suddenly in a lower register.
She sat up on her knees and notched his cock directly into her warm entrance, lowering herself all the way to his balls in the first thrust. It made her feel so powerful, having him inside her while he was "trapped" by the handcuffs and blindfold. It didn't take long at all for both of them to find their releases, and afterwards Galadriel removed the blindfold and cuffs and just cuddled into Halbrand's side to enjoy the quiet intimacy.
"Let me continue to spoil you Galadriel. That's what this trip is about. Don't bother getting dressed." Halbrand got out of the bed, took Galadriel's hand and led her up to the huge champagne glass jacuzzi.
"Anytime we play in water it reminds me of the first time we met."
They both entered the warm water and sunk down to their shoulders. Halbrand reached over to the little side table next to the jacuzzi and handed her the little jewelry box that had been sitting there. She opened the box and inside were two beautiful aquamarine stone earrings. Halbrand gently took the box from Galadriel's wet hands, took the earrings out and came close enough to her to put the earrings into her lobes himself. He then lowered his lips to each ear to gently kiss them. Then, he knelt down in the water.
Galadriel knew he was an excellent swimmer. He had taken years of scuba and free dive lessons once they became human, as it was important to Halbrand that he was still able to agilely move in water.
Still, she worried about how long he was safely going to be able to stay underwater to do what she thought he was planning to do.
An she was right. She only saw the top of Halbrand's reddish-brown curls floating on top of the water but felt his tongue enter her folds quite aggressively.
His tongue repeatedly licked her out, while Galadriel tried to grab onto Halbrand's wet curls. She was so worried about how he was going to breathe underwater, that she came faster than she ever had before and rushed to pull him up into the air immediately after.
After enjoying the jacuzzi for a while longer, they got out of the big champagne glass and toweled each other off with the hotel's big fluffy towels.
"I made dinner reservations at a fancy steakhouse in about an hour, let's both get dried off and dressed up super fancy, ok" Halbrand said to her.
Halbrand had packed his all black monochromatic suit, while Galadriel brought a light blue cocktail dress. They helped each other with all of the buttons, zippers, and shoes so that they would not be late for their dinner reservation.
After they finished their Tomahawk steak dinner for two, Halbrand pulled out another jewelry box and laid it on the table in front of Galadriel. She opened the soft black velvet box to see a gorgeous tennis bracelet.
"Oh, honey it's so beautiful and sparkly!" Halbrand attached the bracelet to her wrist himself, admiring how it caught the restaurant's tract lighting.
"Let's skip dinner and go back up to our room, if that's ok with you."
They went back upstairs to their hotel room, where they quickly shed all of their clothes and got into bed together.
The next morning, Halbrand said that he had the Biggest Surprise Yet. They checked out of the hotel, and went to find their Cadillac in the parking garage. Halbrand once again put the car into Reverse gear, put his right arm over the back of Galadriel's seat, and started to carefully backup the large vehicle. Galadriel again used her left hand to reach out and stroke his upper thigh, dragging it all the way up to his crotch.
Several hours later, Galadriel started to catch on to where they were headed. As they pulled the Cadillac into the Student visitor parking lot, she got glimpses of silver hair waving in the breeze on the sidewalk, waiting for the two of them. It was the best surprise yet.
The End.
