Chapter Twenty Seven

Jayme felt the kiss that brought her out of a deep sleep. Opening her eyes, she saw Rex over top of her. “Hey.” He said.
“Hey.” She returned. “What time is it?”
“It’s almost seven. I have to go to work.” Rex said and kissed her again.
“Ok. Bella will want fed soon.” Jayme said.
“Ok, you feed Bella, I’ll see you later.” Rex said, kissing her one last time before standing up.
“Ok.” Jayme said with a smile, and watched him walk toward the bedroom door.
He turned around one last time and winked at her before disappearing. Jayme waited until she heard the external door shut before climbing out of bed. Still with fear in her heart, Jayme went directly toward Bella’s crib and saw her laying awake.
With a smile, Jayme lifted her out of the crib. “Good morning you.” she said.
Returning to the bed, Jayme sat down, leaning against the wall. Exposing her breast, Jayme brought Bella to her breast and began to feed her. She thought about her situation and knew she was safe with Jim in jail. She could really relax now, knowing the killer had been captured.
Jayme knew the danger was over and decided it was time to give Rex his space and move back in with her parents. And she could work on getting her new house built. When she was finished feeding Bella, she gathered her things and threw them all back into a bag. She spent the day disassembling the crib to take it home. Bella spent the day in her playpen bassinet.
Around seven, Jayme had dinner on the table and decided she would eat with Rex before she has him take her home. But as soon as Rex walked in the door and saw her things packed up, he became concerned.
“What’s going on, Jayme?” He asked.
“I thought I would move back home, now that the danger is over.” Jayme answered.
“No, please don’t…” Rex pleaded. “Stay with me, please, Jayme.”
“What? You want me to stay with you?”
“Well, yes. When I said I wanted you to move in with me, it wasn’t completely because of Jim… It was because I love you. I want to marry you, Jayme. I want to be Bella’s father…” Rex said as he put his hands on Jayme’s shoulders.
Jayme put her arms around Rex. “Yes, I’ll stay. I love you too.” She merely whispered in his ear.
Jayme felt his grip around her tighten for a moment before he let go. “I guess I’ll have to put it back together.” Rex said, looking at the crib pieces.
Jayme smiled. “Sorry.”
Rex smiled back. “I don’t care.”
“Let’s sit and eat first.” Jayme said.
“Yes.” Rex agreed.
After eating dinner, as Jayme cleaned up the kitchen, Rex reconstructed the crib in the bedroom. Bella began to fuss before she was finished but she wanted to finish the clean up before feeding Bella. Bella began to cry just as Jayme came toward the bassinet. With a smile on her face, Jayme picked up Bella and took her to the couch where she sat and fed her.
Before coming back downstairs, Rex took a shower and dressed in only a pair of satin boxer shorts. Looking him over, Jayme could feel the attraction and looking at him nearly naked in this light made her become aroused. Only a week after the birth of her daughter and Jayme was thinking about sex already but wasn’t sure she was ready.
Looking away from Rex, Jayme had to think of anything else to get her mind off of him. She knew tonight was not a good night to sleep beside him as she didn’t trust herself with him. She would have to sleep on the couch to avoid the temptation.
When she was finished feeding Bella, Jayme played with her for approximately twenty minutes before Bella started to lose interest, being worn out. Jayme laid her back in the bassinet, tightening the swaddling blanket. Then she went into the bedroom to take a shower before bed. Using water as hot as she could stand, she stood under the water for long moments before beginning to wash herself.
After drying off, Jayme dressed in a slinky red nightgown. The trim was lace which went up around the shoulders and attached to the back for shoulder straps. The silky material hung just above her knees and she loved the way it felt against her skin. Covering herself with the matching bathrobe, she folded it closed against her and tied the belt to hold it together.
Coming out of the bathroom, Jayme went directly to the couch and sat down beside Rex. Rex was looking at her, checking out her attire from head to toe. Reaching his hand over, he felt the material and smiled. “You look really good in red. And this… it’s so soft.” Rex said.
“Thank you, Rex.” Jayme said and scooted over beside him.
One arm he slipped over her shoulders as the other reached for her hand, interlocking his fingers with hers. Jayme laid her head on his shoulder and closed her eyes for a moment. Breathing in the clean smell of his soap, Jayme smiled and opened her eyes, looking up at him.
In that instant, Rex leaned down and kissed her with a passion that made her tremble. It was almost overwhelming but deep inside, it is what she’s always wanted and she could handle it. But was she ready? Leaning back from the kiss, she just looked at him for a minute. Suddenly, she stood up and faced him, standing between his feet.
Reaching down, she untied the belt of her robe, letting the belt ends fall. The robe opened, exposing the garment beneath. Rex smiled and stood up. With an arm beneath her knees and the other around her shoulders, he picked her up and carried her to the bedroom. Looking into his eyes, Jayme could see the desire deep in his eyes. Laying her on the bed, Rex knelt down over her. Reaching down, he pulled the edges of the robe to the side, exposing the silk and lace garment. With both hands, he placed them on her lower abdomen and pushed them up her ribs to her breasts. His touch was firm but gentle.
Jayme moaned as he drew circles around her nipples just light enough for her to feel. Then Rex leaned down to whisper in her ear. “You don’t know how long I’ve waited for you.”
“Yes I do…” Jayme answered.
Looking down at her, Rex slightly smiled before kissing her again. With every passing second, Jayme’s passion multiplied and soon became a point of no return. She knew she had to tell him. “Rex…” Jayme mumbled. “I have to tell you…”
“What?” He whispered, his lips still kissing her neck.
“I’m not completely healed yet…” Jayme said.
Rex immediately stopped and looked down at her. “I’m so sorry, Jayme, I thought…”
“Shh…” Jayme silenced him. “I mean I am, but I’m still slightly bleeding. I don’t know how you feel about that…”
“I want to do whatever you want to do. If you want me to stop, I will…” Rex said, looking down at her.
“No!” She raised her voice slightly. “I mean I don’t want you to stop. I just wanted you to be aware.”
“Ok. I’m aware. You don’t want me to stop, and I don’t want to stop, so…” He said, then smiled and kissed her again.
Jayme felt more relaxed knowing he was aware of her healing status. She was more able to concentrate on Rex. With his gentle ways, Rex kissed her and fondled her breasts, growing Jayme’s arousal higher.
Feeling Rex’s excitement through his satin boxer shorts, Jayme knew her arousal matched his. As Rex kissed her, he guided his penis to penetrate her. Jayme gasp as he was quite large. At first, it felt sore and dry but the ache turned from pain to passion as he slowly worked into a rhythm. With a kiss here and a touch there, along with Rex’s rhythm, Jayme quickly grew to her orgasm.
Hearing her moans grow louder and more frequent, Rex knew she had reached her climax. The throbbing that he felt deep inside her, instantly brought him directly to his climax. Crashing down, Rex collapsed on Jayme as he tried to regain his breath. Jayme tightened her arms around him never having felt what she was feeling in her soul.
Climbing off of her, Rex laid beside her, holding her in his arms. Jayme was loving the cuddling he was providing and there was no place on earth she would rather be. But there was an issue burning in the back of her mind and she didn’t want to wait to have this conversation. “Rex…” She started.
“Yea?” He responded and looked over at her.
“We didn’t use any protection.” Jayme bluntly said.
“Is it really possible to get pregnant so soon after the birth of your baby?” Rex asked.
“Absolutely, in fact, I’m more fertile now than ever.” Jayme said.
Rex turned his body to completely face her. “Are you worried about getting pregnant?”
“Well… aren’t you?”
Rex smiled. “No. Jayme, you’re not just some woman I’ve had a one night stand with. I’ve already asked you to marry me, that means that I want to spend the rest of my life with you. And yes, I want children.” Rex said. “If you end up getting pregnant, I would hope you would say I do to me.”
“Yes, Rex… Jim is in jail. That means it’s over… ask me again…” Jayme said.
“Jayme, I want to choose the time and place to propose to you. If you’re ready now, it will happen. I promise.” Rex said and kissed her.
