Halloween Surprise - Part 1

"Trick or Treat hubby, miss me yet?"

"Aw HI honey pumpkin, but Halloween isn't until tomorrow!"

"I know but I wanted to get it in early, especially since I have a spooky but exciting surprise for you. Can you guess what I'm cookin' up?"

"Um, will I be picking you up at Cherry Capital International Airport tomorrow morning so you can be rested up for the Halloween party that night?"

"Close but, nope - guess again!"

"Hmmmm, how about you're going to make a surprise appearance at the party wearing a sexy little teddy, heels and big up-do cosplaying as a Victoria's Secret Angel model claiming to be a little lost on the way to a big party and needs help finding her way?"

"Ha and HA buster, no, but the costume idea does shed a little light on your mischievous little psyche, honey dearest..."

"Oh I am out of guesses then, what are you planning, my little Halloween diva? Don't keep me in suspense!"

*BOOM* *Rumble* *Pitter-Patter* *Splash* *Rumble*

"Wow! What's going on by you out there in Chicago? Those are some thunderboomers for sure, I'm getting hit up here in Traverse City with some Great Lake thunderstorm action myself, too."

"Looks like Mother Nature gave me away, honey. I'm actually in your storm system, I should have checked the weather before leaving Chicago for a drive up Michigan's west side along Lake Michigan. I'm actually about an hour drive to your condo before this storm system moved in and forced me to take cover in some creepy underpass on Route 22."

"Oh Stephy, what an awesome surprise! Let me guess, you're driving the convertible with the top you and I didn't put back on over the summer, right?"

"Yep, and I'm not exactly dressed for the weather, I'm wearing your favorite little top that you bought me. It was so warm and humid when I left the east side of Chi Town on 94 that the thunderstorms brewing over the lake caught me off guard. I'm thinking I'm going to have to wait the storm out in this underpass."

"Well, I am actually at the Grand Resort getting ball room #3 ready for tomorrow's costume party, do you want me to come get you?"

"That's so tempting an offer sweetheart, especially how romantic it could be in this storm and a cozy little underpass but I don't think leaving my car here is such a good idea even if you come by and rescue me. I'm glad I told you about my surprise visit though because I would have showed up at your place and you would have been gone on errands and I'd be soaked to the bones with my luck. How about you finish up with the party setup and I'll wait for the storm to blow over. By the time you're done, I should be headed over or close to it when this storm passes us by."

"Sounds like a plan girlfriend, hold on a sec while I check the weather on the weather channel- oh yeah, it looks like a heavy storm but a fast moving one coming from your Chicago side blowing northeast toward me but should last about 45 minutes to an hour. You sure you'll be alright waiting out the storm in an underpass?"

"Thank you babe, I'll be fine, I've got my phone, I'm relatively dry and have a Sudoku game app so by the time I finish a puzzle, the storm should clear up and I will be on my way into your loving arms. You just need to make sure you sufficiently warm me up when we finally meet up tonight, it's getting a little chilly and I'm not wearing a whole lot to keep me warm..."

"I read you loud and clear darling, I am looking forward to making you feel all toasty and loved tonight..."

"Me too my lovely man, if the storm passes sooner, I'll just drive to the Grand Resort and help out."

"That would be awesome honey, but if not, just get to my condo and I should be there momentarily if not already by the time we're done with setup and the storm passes. Call me if anything changes."

"Alright darling, see you soon!"

"Big kisses and more to come, sweetheart."

"Oh I do hope so! I love you babe!"

"I love you sweet Stephs!"
