Chapter fourty eight
Sunday..... Crystal slowly slipped out of bed. She had been having the strangest urge to bake ever since visiting her mom at the cemetery. It was something they had always done together when her mom had wanted to compete with the other moms during the bake sales back in highschool .
But despite the reason, Crystal had always made sure to make the most out of their time together.
Dressed in nothing but Nick's T-shirt, she slowly made her way to the door. Not wanting to wake him up. But he heard her and opened his eyes, as attuned as he was to her every movement, there was no way for him not to hear her as she walked away. He knew the total number of times she had turned during the night.... four to be exact. And he always heard her when she talked in her sleep.
" Hey, " he called out, still lying down on the bed with the sheets and blankets wrapped around his waist.
Turning, she smiled at him, then he stretched out his hand and beckoned for her to go over which she did right away. Getting back on the bed and making her way back to him on her hands and knees. And once she was near he sat up and pulled her to him such that she was straddling his hips.
" Are you running from me? " he casually asked as he gently raked her hair back with his fingers. Needing to see that distant drowsiness that her eyes carried every morning. And to feel the silkiness of her skin. She hadn't been wearing any makeup since she moved in with him, and he liked the natural glow that her skin carried.
" You sound extremely insecure, like you believe I'd just up and leave. "
She caught his eyes with hers, admiring the perfect angles of his face, how firm his jaw was and how thick his lashes were. Reaching up, she held the stubborn lock of his hair between her fingers and pushed it back. Chuckling softly when it fell back down seconds later.
" I'm not worried about that, you're too addicted to me to do such a thing. "
" Still arrogant I see. "
" Simply stating the facts. Now, where exactly are you sneaking off to? "
He ran his hands down her back, he liked it whenever she wore his clothes, it filled him with a very strong sense of possession. And he liked the fact that she loved wearing them even more. Breaking their locked gaze, he looked down to where the shirt had hiked up her thighs and it was only a few inches away from exposing the divine juncture between her legs that always managed to drive him crazy with uncontrollable desire.
" I was thinking about surprising you with breakfast, personally made by me, " she answered his earlier question with her hands loosely around his neck. Then she leaned in and buried her head into the crook of his neck before she took in a deep breath. And the effect of the action shot straight to his cock. And when he dipped his hand under the hem of the shirt she had on and realised that she wasn't wearing anything else underneath, he suddenly became hard.
He would always want her, it was one of the things that made loving her even more precious. Knowing that no matter what, his body would never stop craving hers. And that made him feel even luckier since she was completely his to pleasure as he desired.
Dipping his head, he nipped her nipple between his teeth through the fabric of the shirt, releasing a pleasant moan from her.
" You're all I want to have, I can feast on you all day, "
" And what about me? I have to eat sometime. "
He flickered his thumb over the now hardened nub of her nipple, watching how her grip on his shoulders increased with the fight for control.
" Don't worry baby, I'll make sure to fill you up, " he answered before lifting her shirt up and trying to take it off, but she refused, playfully fighting back. And when she saw the confused look he gave her, she threw her head back and laughed.
" As tempting as your offer is, I'll have to pass it for now, I was serious about making breakfast. I want to bake something. "
He narrowed his eyes, and she could see that he was trying not to scowl.
" You can do that later, " he seriously informed before wrapping his arms around her and shifting so that he was lying on top her, caging her under him in an effort to ensure that she didn't try to run off.
" You're so bad! " she teased, holding back a laugh. And the wicked smirk he gave her told her that he already knew that.
" You can't just turn me on then leave... now that's bad, " he said as he palmed her breast in his hand, smiling when her legs parted enough for him to settle himself between them.
She was turned on as well, he knew that for a fact. It was clear in the hungry look she gave him, but he liked it when she played hard to get. Because in his case, the chase was just as good as the catch, and there's nothing he enjoyed more than their playful banter.
" I didn't even try to turn you on, that's entirely on you. "
She liked just how entirely covered she was by him. His whole body was pressed against hers, not strong enough to hurt her, but strong enough for her to feel every single inch of him.
" I can't help it,especially if you walk around dressed like that...." he pinned both her hands above her head and lifted the shirt up. She writhed under him, but that only served to turn him on even more. And when he caught sight of her bare pussy, a low rumbling growl rose from his chest and escaped his lips. Making her shiver. Knowing that she had the ability to affect him like that filled her with untold joy.
When he looked back at her, his eyes were full of unfiltered lust. The grey so hooded with it ,it was unmistakable.
" I'm so fucking hard right now! " he said as he let go of her wrists and started exploring her. Touching every part of her he could both see and reach. And she knew that if she let him then they would probably never leave the bedroom that day. A rather tempting thought... so tempting she almost gave in. But she chose not to. One, because she wanted to torture him a little and two, because she still wanted to bake.
" Wrapping her arms around his neck, she kissed him. A deep and consuming kiss that blew everything else from his mind. His cock was aching for her, and all he had to do was pin her down and take her.
Deepening the kiss even more, Crystal slowly took the advantage of him being momentarily distracted to shift back on top of him. Pushing him against the mattress with her hands on his chest. Then she slowly kissed her way down his neck and chest, stopping at the waistband of his black silk pajamas to look at up at him. He was watching her with unwavering intensity.
His chest rose and fell ...steady at first, but then rapidly when she rubbed her hands over the tent formed by his throbbing cock. He squeezed his eyes shut, and it was then that she jumped off the bed and ran for the door, laughter trailing the way behind her.
" I love you! " she shouted as she exited the room and started making her way down the flight of stairs and towards the kitchen.
With a curse, Nick gave chase.
And he caught her just as she reached the bottom step, wrapping an arm around her, he pulled her back against him. Then he bit her right where her neck connected with her shoulder.
" Ouch! " she yelled admist the laughter. Struggling to get her feet back on the ground when he lifted her up.
" That wasn't very nice of you! "
He sounded honestly upset she couldn't help but feel amused.
" Okay, let's make a deal. You'll let me bake for two hours and then afterwards we can ' play around ' as much as you want. "
" I have an even better deal. I'll let you bake WHILE we ' play around ' ."
Turning to face him, she faked a pout. One that he found extremely adorable, but he still gripped her tightly so that she wouldn't get away again. He was still hard and no matter what, he was determined to get her to himself. To dive as deep into her as he could and thrust until she cried out his name.
" But then I won't get anything done, " she tried to reason out as she looked up at him with the most effective pair of puppy dog eyes he had ever seen. They were even better than Brianna's and that little girl was a master at emotional manipulation.
" If you're as determined as you seem then I'm certain I won't be that great a distraction. "
" Yeah right... as if I can do anything while you're..... " she chewed on her bottom lip. And at the same time he slid his hands between her legs and parted her pussy lips before he started stroking her in a most sensuous manner. She whimpered, going limp in his hold.
" While I fuck you senseless?.... " he finished her statement for her, and immediately after she felt as he entered two fingers inside her, withdrew just as fast and thrust back in with three.
" Oh God..." she whispered and he smiled, satisfied.
" ..I'm certain we'll find a way to kill both birds with a single stone. Now, speaking of hard things.. " he wrapped his arms around her thighs and lifted her up. She wrapped her legs around him and he walked towards the kitchen that he had rarely ever used since he first purchased the apartment. But now it was full of things, both in the drawers and the fridge.
Despite his need, he let her slide her legs down to the floor. And he watched as she started retrieving the things she would need. She glanced over her shoulder after each second. Wanting to see the way in which he was stalking her, like a predator eyeing its prey. But he never striked, not when she had expected him to. Instead he simply watched her as she made the mix for the chocolate fudge cake she just loved. And her movements around the kitchen, the smile she wore as she prepared everything, the familiarity with which she used everything, it all touched something inside him.
That was their space. Before her it had been nothing more than an empty house, but now it not only looked, but also felt like a home.
After she whisked the cake mix, she stared making the dough for the chocolate chip cookies her mom and her always used to make. She might have not been a selectively good cook but when it came to baking she knew her way around a kitchen. And halfway through Nick asked whether he could help.
His tone was husky and edged with lust. And it made her wary of whether he really just wanted to help, but she gave him the benefit of the doubt and let him lend a hand. He washed his hands first before helping her cut out the cookies in different shapes. Not something he could have ever pictured himself doing, but it actually turned out to be fun.
That was something Crystal adored about him, on the outside, he looked dangerous and she knew that he was. He immediately governed both fear and respect whenever he walked into a room. And he was always collected and calm whenever he wasn't messing around with her. But then once they were alone and doing something as normal as baking or watching TV, he always lowered his defenses.
He let her see him as who he was. And he never hid anything from her, with just made her love him even more. How he laughed whenever a certain cookie didn't quite come out right, or how he pretended to be reaching over for something just so he could steal a kiss from her. Those were the things that made spending time with him all the more special.
At one instance, when he thought she wasn't watching, he dipped his finger into the cake mixture and tried to spread it on her cheek, but she caught him just before he did. Holding his wrist as she made a tsking sound with her tongue while shaking her head.
" Care to explain? " she jokingly asked, trying to sound stern and authoritative with her other hand on her waist. But all he did was shrug.
" Nope. It's exactly what it looks like. "
Laughing, she brought the finger to her lips and sucked it into her mouth with her eyes still on his. His cock twitched, and he realised that he couldn't control it anymore. Turning her around, he stood behind her, locking their fingers together and placing the joined hands on the counter. Then he leaned in and sucked on her earlobe before he gently grazed it with his tongue.
" Let's kill the second bird, shall we? " he asked next to her ear. She rubbed herself against him and he made a strangled sound of approval from the back of his throat.
" Like this? " she asked with a shaky voice. He had never taken her from behind before and although the thought thrilled her, she was still a little apprehensive. But then he raised her shirt and began rubbing her back in a soothing manner, urging her to relax.
" Exactly like this, I want to take you in every way possible.... now just relax baby, I'm going to make you feel good. "
Taking a deep breath, she did as asked, parting her legs when he urged her to. He freed his now fully erect cock and sought her opening. His exploring hands cupping and squeezing her breasts under the shirt. She moaned, and the soft sound was amplified to an almost scream when he slowly began thrusting into her. Going slow to enable her to get used to the feel of him being inside her.
" You good? " he asked once he was halfway inside her. Looking down to see where they were now joined. He liked the feel of being inside her probably more than anything. To feel her muscles clench around his shaft and to feel her welcoming heat as it accommodated his length.
" Faster, please, faster! " Crystal cried out as she tried grinding herself against him but being unable to due to the hold he had on her back. Smiling at her desperation, he grabbed her hips, then he granted her wish. Thrusting into her so fast she could hardly catch a breath. And she liked how rough and domineering he was. And the sounds they both made clashed with those of their bodies as they smashed together in the most raw and passionate way imaginable. Creating an erotic and loud melody that pushed them to their climax.
It was Crystal that got there first, unable to hold it back any longer.
" So close... I'm gonna come! " she managed to say past her fading vision and the strong sensation she was experiencing. Reaching around, Nick gently began massaging her clit, and that served the purpose of driving her way over the edge.
" Come for me baby, " Nick said. And with her back arched and her skin now sheened in a layer of sweat, she let go. Climbing the vast height of her orgasm as she cried out his name. Her orgasm also triggered his, and not soon after, she felt as he shot spurts of his cum into her. It was the most magnificent feeling. To know that they truly were joined as one. And that they could both give and take pleasure from each other so freely.
Leaning against her, Nick felt as the immense pleasure slowly began to subside. He was now leaning against Crystal, both his hands wrapped around her front. Both their breathing heavy and unmeasured.
Looking over her shoulder and at him, Crystal smiled, capturing his lips with hers in a heartbreaking kiss that brought to the surface all she felt for him.
" Can you believe you ran from that? " Nick then asked ,provoking another laugh from her. That angelic and magical sound that he loved to listen to.
" You know, the faster we finish baking, the more time we'll have to play a few more rounds, "
The thought had him growing hard again, he pulled out of her slowly, and when he was out to the head of his cock, he thrust back in, burying himself inside her all the way to the base.
" Christ! " she cried out.
" I was thinking of more than just a few, but you're right, let's shove these things into the oven first before we get to it. "
She would have laughed, but then he started pulling out again. This time she was sure he was going to pull all the way out, but then when she wasn't expecting it, he quickly thrust in again.
" Nick! " she cried out. It was half moan, half warning. And somehow, despite his aching need, he managed a laugh before pulling out completely. Helping her to stand straight since she was a little limp.
" Let's go get cleaned up first, " she said as she held his hand. But he refused to move, his logic being that they would only waste time doing so.
" Besides, what's the point if I'm just going to get you dirty all over again? "
Shaking her head, she went back to her baking. Placing everything into the oven with Nick's help, she stepped back and let him take over. Noting that he was enjoying it even more than even she was. And when he turned, he saw the way she was looking at him. How she was watching him with unhidden emotions. Placing a quick kiss on her cheek, he leaned on the counter beside her before saying.....
" I know, and I love you too..... Now, how long do these things take to bake, I'm a firm believer in time management. "
She burst out laughing again. And knowing he was the cause of her delight made him wear a smile of his own.
