The Beauty of Rose<\/strong><\/center> <\/p>\n

Looking into the mirror, Rose watched as her sister-in-law and best friend, Victoria, place the last of the dried roses in her hair.\u00a0 The floral crown made Rose look like an angel.\u00a0 Her dark hair was pulled back and twisted so that the rose crown looked as if it was part of her hair.\u00a0 When she stood up, her mother\u2019s white satin gown made her look like the princess Rose had read about when she was a little girl.\u00a0 There was a knock on the door from her oldest brother David, telling her it was time to go to the church.\u00a0 Rose\u2019s heart began to beat with a flurry that seemed to beat out of her chest.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cVictoria, I think I\u2019m going to be ill.\u201d\u00a0 Rose said, turning to Victoria with a worried look.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cJust breathe Dearest, and everything will be fine.\u00a0 I promise you I will be there to catch you if you faint\u201d Victoria said with a smile and a giggle.\u00a0 She opened the door and told her husband that they were ready.\u00a0 Her other sister-in-law Martha was gathering up her things and placing them in a small bag that Rose was carrying to the church.\u00a0 When Rose came down the stairs to meet her family, they were speechless, admiring her beauty.\u00a0 Her sixteen-year-old brother, Mark gave a long whistle that brought a slight blush to Rose\u2019s cheeks.\u00a0 Rose and her family walked out of the house toward her brother Jonathan and the waiting carriages.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cRemember\u2026breathe.\u201d\u00a0 Victoria said as she helped Rose step into the carriage.<\/span><\/p>\n

Rose smiled as her mother and Mark climbed into the carriage with her.<\/span><\/p>\n

Victoria and David followed along in the carriage behind them with their four-year-old son James, two-year-old Michael, joined by Jonathan and Martha with their three-year-old daughter Mary and one year old son George.<\/span><\/p>\n

The five-minute ride seemed to take longer than normal, for Rose was anticipating the end which would bring her to her beloved Hoss.<\/span><\/p>\n

At the church, Joe and Adam were waiting outside, smiling at them as they drove up.<\/span><\/p>\n

Adam greeted them.\u00a0 \u201cI\u2019m glad that you\u2019re here.\u00a0 Hoss has been beside himself all morning.\u00a0 I\u2019ll tell him that you are here\u201d as he helped Mrs. Pickard out of the carriage.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cPa has him in the back room trying to help calm his nerves.\u00a0 I\u2019ve never seen him like this.\u00a0 I just hope that he will be able to stand when he sees you, Rose.\u00a0 You are extraordinarily lovely today.\u00a0 We\u2019ll go and tell Hoss and Pa that you are here, then we can begin the wedding.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Dervin walked out of the church and took Rose\u2019s hand.\u00a0 \u201cSister, are you ready to go to your groom?\u201d\u00a0 All Rose could do was smile and nod.\u00a0 Her heart was so full of emotions that she was afraid to speak.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWonderful!\u00a0 We will begin when you are ready.\u00a0 I\u2019ll tell Aunt Ruby to begin the Wedding March on your cue, Jonathan.\u201d\u00a0 Mark and Jonathan closed the front door and cued their Aunt Ruby to begin the music, then escorted their mother to her seat.\u00a0 Martha was greeted once again by Joe, and Adam greeted Victoria.\u00a0 Before they went down the isle, David took Rose\u2019s hand and kissed it, placed it on his arm and said.\u00a0 \u201cSister, I believe that you have made a wise choice in saying yes to Hoss.\u00a0 He is a good man and I know that you two will be very happy together.\u00a0 I know that Papa would have liked him, too.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

At the mention of her father, a tear rolled down her cheek.\u00a0 \u201cDo you think so David?\u201d she whispered.\u00a0 David looked at his little sister and said \u201cNo need for tears, Sister.\u00a0 This is your happy day and you don\u2019t want to begin your new life with red eyes.\u201d\u00a0 With a smile on both of their faces, they walked into view of those in the church.<\/span><\/p>\n

When Hoss turned and looked into the eyes of Rose, he felt as if his heart stopped.\u00a0 He almost couldn\u2019t believe what he saw.\u00a0 He thought he must be dreaming, for watching Rose walk toward him had to be the most beautiful vision that he had ever seen.\u00a0 He\u2019d thought that Rose couldn\u2019t have been more beautiful than the day he asked her to marry him\u2026but he was wrong.\u00a0 Her white gown and the roses in her hair made her look angelic.\u00a0 Hoss said a quick prayer of thanks.\u00a0 This lovely woman had already made him feel like the luckiest man in the world.\u00a0 Today they would eternally belong to each other.\u00a0 Hoss vowed to himself that he would always care for her and protect her for the rest of their lives together.<\/span><\/p>\n

When Rose and David reached him and his brothers, he took her hand and they turned toward Dervin.\u00a0 Dervin began, \u201cDearly beloved we are gathered today in the sight of God\u2026.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The reception was the biggest party that Virginia City has ever seen.\u00a0 Everyone within twenty miles of Virginia City wanted to pay their respects to the new Mrs. Eric Cartwright.\u00a0 There were so many people there that Hoss and Rose were only able to dance the first dance together.\u00a0 When the dancing began to die down, Joe pulled the surrey around to the young couple.\u00a0 They were driving over to Dervin\u2019s house to change clothes before they began the first part of their trip to the cabin in the mountains that would serve as the first week\u2019s destination for their honeymoon.<\/span><\/p>\n

When Hoss finished changing into his familiar clothes, he sat in the parlor waiting for Rose to come down.\u00a0 \u201cRose Darlin\u2019 if you would please hurry, I would\u2026like\u2026to\u2026\u201d\u00a0 He looked up and saw his bride walking down the stairs in her dark pink riding habit.\u00a0 Hoss stopped mid-sentence and just looked at her in awe.\u00a0 The look on his face made Rose laugh and she finished his sentence.\u00a0 \u201c\u2026make it to the cabin before dark.\u00a0 I\u2019m here My Love.\u00a0 No need to wait longer.\u201d\u00a0 She stood up on her tiptoes and gave him a kiss that brought him back to the moment.<\/span><\/p>\n

When Rose had suggested that they spend a week in the hunting cabin for their honeymoon before going to San Francisco, he knew that Rose was the woman for him.\u00a0 They mounted their horses and began to ride.\u00a0 What took only an hour to get to seem to take forever for both of them.\u00a0 Well, it did take longer than usual, because Hoss slowed down every so often to be as near to her as he could.\u00a0 By the time they reached the cabin, they were both full of anticipation.\u00a0 They dismounted and immediately embraced each other with a kiss that was deep and tender.<\/span><\/p>\n

Hoss opened the door, picked up Rose, and carried her inside.\u00a0 What they saw was beautiful.\u00a0 It showed signs that visitors had left the cabin only minutes before.\u00a0 There was lit candle in every corner of the room with flower petals all over the floor and the bed made up with fine white lace and linen sheets.\u00a0 Rose must remember to thank her sisters-in-law for such a beautiful room.\u00a0 Hoss could not believe that this was the same place that he spent his younger days resting after a long day of hunting.<\/span><\/p>\n

Once inside, Hoss placed Rose on her feet, closed the door behind them, and took off his hat.\u00a0 Rose removed her hat and jacket and slowly walked to him.\u00a0 Fear began to creep up in her, but the love and the desire that burned within her heart for this wonderful man who stood before her, helped her to overcome those fears.\u00a0 She hesitated a few feet in front of him.\u00a0 He took her hands and gently drew her to himself.\u00a0 Looking deeply into his eyes, Rose softly caressed his face and kissed him with the burning passion that she held only for her beloved man.\u00a0 Hoss began to unbutton her blouse.\u00a0 With each button unbuttoned, a fiery kiss followed, until Rose believed that she could actually burst into flames if he did not hurry.<\/span><\/p>\n

Hoss did his best to go slow in order not to frighten her.\u00a0 It had taken all his strength of will this past year to keep from having his desire for her get the best of him.\u00a0 The desire that burned within him for so long made it difficult now to move slowly.\u00a0 He picked her up and gently laid her in the bed.\u00a0 She pulled him to her and they kissed with an urgency that showed the love that they both held for each other.<\/span><\/p>\n

Later that night, Rose lay wrapped up in Hoss\u2019s arms with her head resting on his chest.\u00a0 She listened to his heartbeat (her new favorite sound) and said a prayer of thanksgiving to God for giving her such a loving, tender, and caring man.\u00a0 She felt so complete after having given herself freely and totally to her husband.\u00a0 She fell asleep happier and more content than she ever thought possible.<\/span><\/p>\n

When morning came, Rose slowly sat up and looked into the sleeping face of her beloved.\u00a0 She attempted to get up and fix breakfast.\u00a0 When she moved, Hoss held her arm and pulled her back to him.\u00a0 \u201cWhere do you think your going Mrs. Cartwright?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI thought I would fix some breakfast.\u00a0 Aren\u2019t you hungry?\u201d\u00a0 She asked, looking into his passion-filled eyes.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cStarving!\u201d\u00a0 He answered, as he began to kiss her.\u00a0 They made love that morning with the same urgency they had the night before.\u00a0 They lay wrapped up in each other\u2019s arms and talked about their future, their home, and the family they hoped to have.\u00a0 Rose snuggled closer to Hoss as he was telling her about the last things that were to be done to the house he was building for them.\u00a0 She was looking forward to the shopping they would be doing next week to get what was needed for their new home.<\/span><\/p>\n

The rest of the week was pure heaven!\u00a0 They were left alone at the cabin to spend their time talking and loving each other.\u00a0 The night before they were to leave for San Francisco, they rode down to the Ponderosa to spend some time with her new Cartwright family.\u00a0\u00a0 Hoss and Rose had planned to have supper with them and spend the night before they left for the Washoe City stage.<\/span><\/p>\n

Supper was a delight.\u00a0 Adam and Joe told stories about Hose\u2019s childhood that deepened her affection for him; stories that reinforced that he was the kindest, gentlest man that she had ever met.\u00a0 Adam also explained about how the house was progressing.\u00a0 \u201cWhen you get back, the house should be almost ready to move in.\u00a0 If you, Mrs. Cartwright, would pick out the paint before you leave in the morning, then the men will be able to have that done as well, before you come back.\u201d\u00a0 Rose smiled with great delight.\u00a0 She could not believe it.\u00a0 In a few weeks she and Hoss would have their new home.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThank you Adam for all of the hard work that you have done for us.\u201d\u00a0 Rose stood up and gave him a hug.\u00a0 \u201cWhen we get back and move our furniture in, this dream will become a reality.\u201d\u00a0 Rose smiled at Adam, then at Hoss. \u201cThis has been a wonderful evening, but morning will be here soon.\u00a0 I believe that I am going to turn in for the night.\u201d\u00a0 Rose went around and hugged and kissed Ben, Joe and Adam.\u00a0 Hoss started to get up, but Rose stopped him.\u00a0 \u201cHoney, you stay down here and visit if you want to.\u201d\u00a0 She gave him a kiss and a hug.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ll be up in a little while\u201d Hoss whispered to her as she turned toward the stairs.\u00a0 Rose said goodnight and they watched her walk up the stairs.<\/span><\/p>\n

When she closed the door, a warm feeling began to flow through her.\u00a0 She was now in their bedroom.\u00a0 Not hers, not Hoss\u2019s, but their bedroom.\u00a0 The room that they would share until their house was finished.\u00a0 She could not believe it, in a few short weeks they could move in.\u00a0 She walked over to her toiletry bag and pulled out her brush and began to brush out her long brown hair, daydreaming of their future as she began to braid it for bed.\u00a0 She changed into her nightgown, and began to repack the things she had pulled out of the trunk so it would be ready in the morning to load on the wagon.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

When she finished, she climbed into bed, wishing that Hoss would hurry.\u00a0 She hated the thought of going to bed without him, but she knew that being married to a rancher, it was something that she would have to get used to.\u00a0 When she began to drift off to sleep she heard the door open.\u00a0 Hoss tried to be as quiet as he could when he came in.\u00a0 He quickly changed and got into bed.\u00a0 He placed his arms around her as she wiggled to be closer to him.\u00a0 He loved how her body fit his as they cuddled.\u00a0 Now that they were both in bed she could go to sleep.<\/span><\/p>\n

The next morning, both Hoss and Rose were up at dawn getting things ready to leave on the morning stage to San Francisco.\u00a0 Ben, Adam, and Joe were up and ready to say their good-byes and see them off.<\/span><\/p>\n

The trip to San Francisco was uneventful.\u00a0 They arrived in town just in time to get to the hotel, change, and get to a performance at the opera house.\u00a0 Hoss wanted Rose to have the opportunity to hear as much music as possible before settling into the day to day life of a rancher\u2019s wife.\u00a0 Every night they went to some form of a musical event.<\/span><\/p>\n

The morning of the last day in San Francisco they were lying in bed talking.\u00a0 Rose looked at Hoss and said \u201cCan we stay in tonight?\u201d\u00a0 Hoss looked at Rose with concern and said \u201cAren\u2019t you feeling well this morning?\u201d she turned and looked into his worried eyes, touching his face.\u00a0 \u201cOh yes, My Love, I feel wonderful, but I thought we could spend a quiet night together.\u00a0 We\u2019ve spent each day shopping for things for the house and our nights were spent at the opera, the theater or the symphony.\u00a0 I think you might be a little tired of listening to people singing in French and Latin.\u00a0 I\u2019d love to spend our last night here together and alone.\u201d\u00a0 She looked at Hoss with a smile that had another meaning.\u00a0 Pulling him down to her, she kissed him in a way that made them both forget about the plans that they had made for that day.<\/span><\/p>\n

That afternoon, after a quick lunch in their room, Rose went to the dressmakers for her final fittings of the dresses that she and her mother had ordered when they were there a month ago.\u00a0 Hoss went to make the last arrangements for the furniture delivery to the Ponderosa in a few months.\u00a0 He walked over to the silversmith and placed an order of special silverware that he was having made for Rose.\u00a0 Hoss handed the silversmith the drawing of the pattern that Adam had done to go on the handles.\u00a0 The silverware was going to be his surprise for her.\u00a0 He walked over to the shipping office to make the final arrangements with them.\u00a0 When he saw that Rose was not finished at the dressmakers, he went over to the same store where Ben and Marie had gotten their china.\u00a0 He showed the clerk the drawing of Adam\u2019s silverware design, ordered place settings, and gave shipping instructions.<\/span><\/p>\n

Hoss knew that Rose would be very surprised.\u00a0 He loved to surprise her with things he knew that she wanted but often hesitated to ask for.\u00a0 Some time earlier she had mentioned that she planned to use her grandmother\u2019s china and silverware.\u00a0 With all that was being spent on furniture that week, she was careful not to spend money on things they really didn\u2019t need.\u00a0 This way she could pack those beloved things away to use at special meals.<\/span><\/p>\n

He walked out of the store toward the dressmaker\u2019s just in time to see Rose walking out.\u00a0 \u201cWell, good afternoon, Mrs. Cartwright.\u00a0 Would you care to join me for a bit of refreshment?\u201d\u00a0 Rose took Hoss\u2019s arm, looked up at him and said, \u201cThat would be lovely Mr. Cartwright.\u201d\u00a0 Together they walked to a tearoom and ordered.\u00a0 Rose shared with Hoss the events of the day.\u00a0 She told him about the dresses that would be finished tomorrow, the fabric she bought to make curtains, the little odds and ends that she found that would help to make their house warm and inviting.\u00a0 She \u201cforgot\u201d to tell him about the side trip that she had made to the leather shop to order new saddle bags, rifle holster, and a lot of other things that her brothers said she needed to get for Hoss.\u00a0 She couldn\u2019t wait for his surprise leather gifts to be delivered.\u00a0 She wanted to see the look on his face when he opened the box.<\/span><\/p>\n

When they finished their tea, they walked arm-in-arm to their hotel and prepared for their last night in San Francisco.\u00a0 It was a cool fall night.\u00a0 It was cool enough for Hoss to build a fire in the fireplace.\u00a0 When he lit the fire, he turned around to see Rose coming out of the water closet dressed in a pink silk nightgown.\u00a0 She looked so beautiful that Hoss could only stare as she walked toward him.\u00a0 Her hair cascaded down her back.\u00a0 She came and sat on the pillows that Hoss had laid on the floor, picking up the book of Shakespeare\u2019s Sonnets that Hoss had put there.\u00a0 This touched her heart deeply.\u00a0 She knew that Hoss didn\u2019t like to read out loud, but because he knew that she enjoyed it so much, he was willing to overcome this discomfort to please her.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cHoss, would you please read Number 40?\u00a0 It\u2019s my favorite, and I just love to listen to your voice.\u00a0 It\u2019s so soothing to me.\u201d\u00a0 He sat down next to her and she snuggled closer to him to hear his voice rumble in his chest.\u00a0 He found the desired sonnet and began to read.\u00a0 She didn\u2019t think that it was possible, but the more he read, the deeper she fell in love with him.\u00a0 The night was spent with them finding new ways to express their love for each other.<\/span><\/p>\n

When morning dawned, they packed up their trunks and boarded the stage that would take them back to Washoe City; back to their home.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The End<\/p>\n
