Arranged Marriage

It's a trope near and dear to our hearts. Arranged marriage.
Maybe it's for the family. Maybe it's for a friend. Maybe you know the person and have been expected to marry them for years. Maybe it's the wedding day and you have no clue who it is you'll be tied to for your natural life. Maybe you've been married a while, and you're just now starting your life, away from the expectations of others. Or maybe, the "others" are watching, waiting, making sure this marriage sticks.
Prompts for those who need them:
Reasons:
1. Station → You come from a royal, noble, or otherwise distinguished family who has chosen a suitable spouse for you.
2. Feud → You are being married to put an end to the bitter enmity between your two families.
3. Economics → Your economic state and/or your station will improve through the union, though one of you may be marrying down.
4. Empire → You and your spouse are merging your businesses and/or property to create something more influential or profitable.
6. Tribute → You have been offered as a gift or appeasement, alternately you're the spoils of war.
8. Bloodline → Carrying on your distinguished family name has fallen to you and the equally well-bred spouse of your family's selection.
7. Disapproval → Your marriage has been arranged to keep you away from the person with whom you truly wish to be.
Scenario:
1. First meeting → This is the very first time you're meeting your future spouse.
2. Courtship → To get to know each other and encourage affection, your family has approved of you going on dates.
3. Engagement party → Be it a huge, formal affair or a small, intimate get together, you're celebrating (or pretending).
4. Wedding day → The big day!
5. Reception → The big party!
6. Wedding night → Every meme needs a smut prompt, right?
7. Honeymoon → Where will you go with your new spouse and what will you do there?
8. Been at this a while → Just starting to get to know the other person

Gently, he begins to move inside of her, wanting to hear and feel her make those sounds that she does. He loves knowing that he is bringing her to the pinnacle.

He'd never thought... He loves women. He does. But he loves men too. And he'd never thought that there'd be one who would make him forget that. Yet, here he is, pumping between Kitty's legs, his hand on the back of her thigh, wanting to take her to the heights and beyond, just with him. He wants to feel her skin. He wants to touch her hair. He wants to kiss her. He wants her, even though right now he has her.
"Kitty," He purrs out into her ear, more from his chest than his throat. Kevin keeps pressing into her, moving purposefully to bring her crashing down around him.
no subject
"Kevin," she gasps, her back arching off the bed as she clings to him. "Kevin, please..."
no subject
"I've got you. Hold on and let go." He whispers into her ear. Gently, he begins moving faster, his thumb acting as counterpoint.
no subject
She climaxes with a sharp cry, clinging to him desperately with her nails digging into his back as her body trembles under the storm of sensation.
no subject
God, he loves this. Sex has been good, but never this good. Laying there breathing with her, he thinks he may have fallen in love with his wife. Damn the Professor for knowing this shit.
Kevin kisses her gently and then rolls over onto his back, taking her with him, so she's on top of him. He gently traces his fingertips along her spine, wanting to just touch his wife.
"We take advantage enough?" He teases with a grin.
no subject
His question earns a breathless giggle, and she rests her head on his shoulder. "Hmm...I suppose for now," she replies with a grin of her own.
no subject
He's willing to stay here, for a long, long time, but they do have tickets to a ghost walk, and to the aquarium. "So," He drawls gently. "Whatcha say we go to the aquarium, after breakfast and see cute little penguins?"
She smells nice, like sex and her soap, and sweat. He wishes they could stay here forever, but he can't wear the dampener forever, and if he wants to sleep with her tonight... well, they need to get up.
no subject
"Sounds like a good plan."
Though she doesn't quite get up just yet.
no subject
Kevin loves her being on top of him. If his cock would perk up, he'd let her be on top and say to hell with not wasting their tickets. Unfortunately, she's worn him out a bit. That's alright, leaves more time to tease her all day, and then bring her back here. He's already plotting a few things.
"Come on," He says, hugging her. "Shower, then breakfast. Then, baby penguins." He grins.
no subject
"You might have to carry me to the bathroom," she says, feigning weakness as she bats her eyelashes at him.
no subject
"Come on, shower for ya." He heads into the bathroom, still carrying her.
no subject
She could walk perfectly well on her own, but...this is more fun.
no subject
"Now, why don't you take a shower," He says, gently, putting her on her feet. "I'll buy us tickets and stuff." He cups her face. Then, he leans in and kisses her.
no subject
It's so strange; when the Professor had arranged their union, she had thought that she and Kevin would be friendly at best. This...this was so much more than she thought could happen.
no subject
When she's done, he waits for her to come out. "Dress comfortable, but it's going to be a little chilly out." He kisses her temple. "Going to shower, and then we'll go." He says, warmly.
no subject
When she does emerge, she's drying her hair with a towel, though pauses a moment so he can kiss her. "Okay," she replies with a smile.
no subject
When he comes out, he dresses quickly and then puts the ring in it's box before pulling on his gloves, last.
"Baby penguins?" He teases, holding out his gloved hand to her. He's feeling blessed that this is his wife, that she cares enough to be careful around him, that she'll understand when he disappears into his shop so that he can be alone for a bit.
He's not going to thank that manipulative old bastard that had done this, though. He's got a big enough head as it is.
no subject
"You promised breakfast first," she reminds him playfully.
no subject
"See," he says, opening the door to the car for her, "there's something special I found at the zoo. If we get there early, as in," he checks his watch, "in the next hour, we can feed the giant panda, have breakfast, and then go feed some lemurs." He grins. "The penguins we can feed this afternoon." He's made plans.
And he thinks she'll adore doing that, but if she says no, he'll cancel the plans and do what she wants to do.

The traffic isn't bad, but it's not the greatest either. He manages to keep them out of several accidents that almost happen. He mutters at the other drivers.
When he pulls into the parking lot, there's already families and groups unloading, and getting ready to head in. "Ready?"
no subject
But she's still in good spirits when they arrive, and giving him a smile she nods. "All set!"
no subject
Then, he steps back and lets Kitty have her fun. He pulls out his phone to get a couple of pictures of her feeding the panda.
