Sunday morning began with a repeat of the day before. Holly’s hands stroking Alex’s bare torso up and down.
Alex heard Holly sigh before she pressed her lips to his chest.
“I’ll never go home if each morning is like this.” He chuckled.
“Mmm” Holly moaned. “I can live with that.” She said as she pressed more kisses to his pecs.
“Good, because I don’t plan on leaving any time soon.” He replied as he stroked up her back with his fingertips.
He felt her skin shiver when his hands reached her bare upper back, above the seam of her PJ top. He slowly stroked back down and gently ran his hand under the back of her top, caressing her naked skin. Holly lifted her leg higher over his and pulled herself tighter to him. His body had reacted instantly to her touch and his ‘friend’ had well and truly woken up.
“Excellent” she breathed into his chest, sending goosebumps over his skin.
Holly’s lips grazed over his chest, to his neck, his heart speeding up as she did.
She hadn’t even gotten to his mouth, and already he was craving more. Her hands slid back down his chest, over his abs and one reached round to his lower back before gripping his ass.
Holly let out an appreciative sigh as her fingertips pressed into his flesh, causing his entire body to ignite.
“God… Holly.” He strained to say.
“I’m still asleep.” She said. “I have no control over my actions” she purred as she gripped his ass again.
“I guess I shouldn’t wake you then.” He chuckled.
“No. You should let me sleep. Mmm”
Alex heard Holly’s stomach growl, followed by his own.
“You need to wake for breakfast though.” He said as she kissed his collarbone. “You haven’t eaten much; babe”
“Neither have you.” Holly replied as she pulled back.
“You know what I want?” He asked, lowering his voice. Holly looked into his eyes, her mouth opening at his tone. “Quiero tu cuerpo para el desayuno”
Holly gasped and Alex quickly pecked her on the lips. He cupped her face with his hands.
“How are you feeling?” He asked, quietly. Holly had gotten upset the night before. He knew she’d have flashbacks and bouts of anxiety.
The paramedic, and his Mom both said that Holly would possibly be distant at times, and have sudden bursts of being upset, but it was the brains’ way of dealing with what had happened. The paramedic had expected a full breakdown by now, but Holly was strong. After all, she’d just had her hands all over him. Even so, he needed to make sure she was ok.
“I’m feeling better…” she nodded as she spoke. A smile crept across her lips. “Feeling you is better.” Her smile turned into a grin, and he laughed.
“I love you.” He whispered as he gazed at her beautiful face. This was what he wanted to see everyday. First thing in the morning and last thing at night…forever.
“I love you too.” She whispered back and placed a gentle kiss on his lips.
Their stomachs growled in protest from the lack of food.
“Ok, let’s go.” Holly groaned as she pushed back the covers. Holly’s eyes drifted down Alex’s body, sending tingles through him from her lustful stare. He watched her expression change when she spotted his tented PJ bottoms. Her eyes widened, and her mouth hung open.
“Well, good morning to you too.” She said, and she bit her lower lip.
Alex could feel his cheeks heat. Holly didn’t look at all embarrassed at seeing the effects of their morning, she seemed to look aroused by it. Her eyes slowly drifted back to his and that’s when he saw a little blush. She took a deep breath and stood up.
“I’m going… to shower.” She said, shakily. “I won’t be long.”
“I’ll…um…go to the other one.” He said quickly and stood when Holly turned to walk into her bathroom. Once again, he returned before she did.
During breakfast, they both ate more than the previous day, to Kim’s relief.
“Mum, are you alright?” Holly asked as she saw her Mum looked troubled.
“Yeah baby girl. I, erm, spoke to Emily about an hour ago.”
Holly blew out a breath as her stomach fell.
“You told her then” It was a statement rather than a question.
“Yes love. She went berserk, but I managed to calm her down. She wanted to talk to you, but I told her you were still sleeping. She wants you to ring her”
Kim got up to pour coffee.
“Oh great. I will in a bit. I’m not awake enough to handle Em right now.”
Alex leant into her, close to her ear.
“You were awake enough to handle me, babe.” He whispered.
Holly’s eyes snapped to Alex’s as a flow of electricity shot through her causing her heart to race. Her cheeks heated, and she pulled her lower lip into her mouth.
“Down girl.” He said in his sexy, low tone, turning Holly’s legs to jelly.
“Speak for yourself” Holly shot back and she looked pointedly down towards his lower half. Alex’s eyes widened, and Holly winked as she smiled.
“Oli’s gone to the office to get a head start on the case.” Kim informed them as she sat back down. “He’s going to see what he can do to stop any of this going to the press and to start a complaint against the judge who authorised the releases”
“Oh God…the press.” Groaned Holly.
That’s all she needed. Nosy reporters hanging around trying to get a story from the ‘victim’. She didn’t want that in the slightest. Even if it meant exposing the failings of the authorities, she still didn’t want people sticking their noses in.
“Well, considering the inability of keeping Stacey locked up and allowing her to do this, I don’t think the police want to have their mistakes going public. Oli is trying to make sure that none of them leak anything to the media.” Said Kim.
“Is that possible? I mean, can he stop them from talking?” Asked Alex.
Holly could see the hopefulness in his face. He didn’t want her, or anybody else, harassed.
“It should be.” Kim nodded. “Oli is one of the best lawyers out there. He’ll have all of those involved threatened with legal action. He’ll use everything he can to stop all of you from getting hounded.”
Alex released a relieved breath.
“Thank God.” He said.
The house phone rang, and Kim answered.
“Hol…it’s Em.” She said as she held the phone to Holly. Alex held her hand as she took the phone.
“Hiya Em” Holly said into the receiver.
“Holly! Oh my God! Are you ok? Mum said worrappened!” Em shouted down the phone.
She was so loud, as she carried on talking, Holly had to hold the phone away from her ear. Em was using so many curse words, even a sailor would be shocked.
“Em, calm down. We’re fine. Nobody was hurt.” Holly tried to pacify Em’s violent rant.
“But she coulda killed ye! Even Alex! For fuck’s sake, Hol, ‘ow are you not kickin’ off?!” Em said, her voice still raised.
“Because I’ve done that Em, and we want to get past it now. It happened…I’m fine… she’s gone.”
Holly felt Alex kiss her temple as she spoke. He rubbed his thumb across the back of her hand. It soothed her. A simple caress from Alex made her feel so much calmer.
“Yeah, well I’m glad you broke the fuckers arm and face. She well deserved more than tha’, the whore.” Emily said with venom.
She started to calm down as Holly kept insisting that she was fine, even though talking about it was upsetting her.
Kim had told Emily what had happened, because she was flying over, with her Nan, to surprise Holly for her birthday. But, under the circumstances, Kim thought it was better knowing now than finding out when they got there and ruining Holly’s birthday. Holly was happy they were coming. She missed Em and her Nan, who she hadn’t seen since they’d moved to Seattle.
Holly hadn’t thought much about her birthday. She hadn’t had anything planned, but now she knew they were coming, she guessed her Mum had planned a family dinner at a restaurant, or something. She wasn’t sure she wanted to go anywhere like that, just yet.
“Your Nan’s been looking forward to coming over.” Said Kim as Holly ended the call with Emily.
“I’ve missed her.” She said.
“She’s looking forward to meeting you, Alex.” Smiled Kim.
“Me too.” He replied. “She sounds like a great lady.”
“She is.”
They got up from the table, and Holly led Alex outside into the rear garden. He hadn’t been out there since they all helped put the garden back together. Once outside, he looked around. In just a few days, the plants looked bigger like they had had some kind of magical growth spurt.
“Wow, this looks great!” He said in awe.
“Thanks, babe. I couldn’t have down it without you and the others.” She gushed.
Holly’s garden was her pride and joy. Especially the memorial rockery for her real Dad, James.
Holly led them to the greenhouse and opened the lids off the trays that she had lined up. Alex saw that every compartment had sprouted… something. Holly sprayed them all with water.
“They’ll be ready to plant out in a couple of weeks.” She said with a smile.
Alex loved to see her smile. He stroked his hand across her cheek and kissed her full, pink lips.
“Mmmm.” She sighed, and Alex’s pants strained against the growing hard on that he was sporting.
They left the greenhouse and looked around.
“They all did a great job.” She said about their friends, helping with the cleanup and repairs.
They went to her Dad’s rockery and sat down. Holly sat in-between Alex’s legs with her back to his front. He wrapped his arms around her waist as she leant her head back against his shoulder. He buried his nose in her hair and inhaled. Coconut.
They sat there for a few moments, in the sunshine, listening to the birds singing and the bees buzzing around the flowers.
“This is nice.” She said in an almost whisper. “Sitting here together…It’s peaceful”
“Yeah it is.” He replied before pressing his lips, lightly, to the curve in Holly’s neck where it met her shoulder.
“Holly, Alex, the others are here!” Kim called from the doorway. They got up off the floor as Dev, Ben, Ryan, Riss, Kyle and Kayla walked out into the garden. The girls immediately rushed to Holly and pulled her into a group hug.
“We’re so glad you’re ok honey.” Said Riss.
“We’re here for you, too.” Said Kayla. “Now, we won’t say anymore sweetie.” She added.
“Thanks guys” Holly smiled as Alex held her hand. He was hoping the girls wouldn’t bombard Holly with questions, and he was grateful that they didn’t. She’d looked sad after talking to Em, and he’d hated it.
Once the girls had hugged Holly, they hugged him, but he never let go of Holly’s hand. They guys hugged them too, and then they all went back into the house to Holly’s hangout room.
“The garden’s looking great.” Dev said as they sat down.
“It is. You all did a great job helping me out.” Holly replied.
“I enjoyed it. It was therapeutic” added Kayla.
“Yeah but it can hurt the back.” Said Riss, rubbing her lower spine.
“Then, I can rub you down before I rub you up.” Said Ryan, which got everybody laughing.
Trust Ryan to lighten the mood.
Kim had filled Holly’s snack cupboard, and fridge and there were plenty for everyone, so Dev got to work sorting out the snacks whilst Kayla chose a movie to watch. Thankfully, she chose something that didn’t involve killing anyone. ‘Couples Retreat.’ At least it was funny. Each pair, in their group, sat together and cuddled whilst watching.
Alex was sitting with Holly tucked into his body. Her back to his front but still sitting side by side. His arms protectively around her waist. He could see that the others were all watching Holly every few minutes. Checking on her. They cared about her so much, even after a short time of knowing her.
Alex felt her hand on his thigh. Her fingertips lightly caressing. Her strokes got higher and higher and he took a deep breath to calm himself, but it didn’t help. His friend was alert and raging, not that it had gone away before. Holly would have definitely felt it digging into her lower back. She looked back at him and slowly winked. Her lips curving into a smile. He tightened his grip around her and lowered his head to her ear.
“Abajo, chica.” He whispered.
Holly swallowed, and Alex smiled. He released a hand to stroke Holly’s cheek and turned her face to kiss her gently.
As their lips pressed together, Holly’s fingertips gripped his thigh. He softly sucked her bottom lip, released and then kissed her again. If nobody were there, he would have lain her down and kissed her deeply, holding her, loving her. He’d have to wait until later. Just the anticipation had his pulse racing.
As they pulled apart, Holly, as if reading his thoughts, mouthed ‘later’ before pecking his lips again. He wrapped his arms around her again, resting his check against her head.
Holly felt loved by Alex and loved by her friends. She’d noticed all of them glancing over to her, whilst watching the movie, as if checking to see whether she were ok.
She’d never felt that way before, from anybody other than her family.
Maybe she had been, liked her Nan had joked, ‘closed off’ to other people. She certainly didn’t feel that way anymore, and it was amazing.
Emily and her Nan were coming to see Holly, for a few days, for her birthday.
Their flight was landing early at the airport and her Mum was picking them up at one in the morning. They’d probably leave at around twelve thirty.
Holly wasn’t scared, knowing that Alex would be with her as her parents went out.
She smiled to herself as she thought how much Alex made her feel safe. Even before the incident, she wasn’t a fan of being alone. Especially when they’d first moved in. Now, with Alex, Holly didn’t feel in the least bit anxious with her parents going out.
As the movie ended, Riss and Kayla both cleared away the remnants of the snacks when Kyle suggested they play cards. Great, Holly was bad at cards.
“I brought some, just in case.” He smiled.
“What should we play?” Asked Dev.
“Poker.” Kyle answered, winking at Kayla as he emptied the cards from the box into his hand.
They would all need to sit on the floor around the coffee table to play, so they got up and pulled the rug, and the table, further into the centre of the room.
Kyle dealt the cards as they all sat.
“I don’t know how to play this game.” Holly said, embarrassed.
“What?!” Asked Kyle, incredulously. “You don’t know how…? Ok. It’s not that hard. We’ll play Texas hold ‘em”
“I’ll help you babe.” Alex said from beside her. Alex handed his cards back to Kyle and shared Holly’s hand with her. “We’ll team up.”
Holly felt relieved and delighted at the same time.
She liked to watch Alex when he was concentrating on something. In class, when they worked on pollinating the daffodils, in their other classes where her seat was further back than his. It was hot.
She absent-mindedly licked her lower lip into her mouth as she was staring at him. Watching his mouth as he slightly pursed his lips. Watching his thickly lash rimmed eyes as he looked at the cards in her hand.
“Helloooo!” Said Kyle as the others quietly chuckled.
“Uh…huh?” Holly said as she turned to see what Kyle was talking about.
“Alex, dude, you’re gonna need to put a paper bag over your head. You’re distracting her!” snickered Ryan.
Alex turned to Holly and grinned.
“Don’t judge me.” Holly said as she blushed.
God, I thought I was past that!
Maybe it was because she was in the company of all of their friends.
Oh, so what! He’s gorgeous, and all mine.
“Just so you know, Ry…” She began. “…A paper bag wouldn’t help. I’d still know what’s under there and my imagination can get extremely creative.” She finished as she glanced at Alex’s torso and then to his face.
His eyes widened as he smiled.
Ryan’s mouth hung open in surprise.
“I never thought I’d see you speechless.” Chuckled Ben.
Dev beamed at Holly with a glint in her eye, like she was happy Holly was ‘normal’ after what had happened.
Them not treating her like a victim helped her to feel normal. Goodness, Holly did not want to be treated that way. Alex had already seen evidence of her vulnerability and had reassured her, but not once had he treated her like a china doll. She appreciated that. He seemed to know exactly what she needed, what to do and what to say.
“Ok, let’s play poker!” Kyle said, interrupting her thoughts.
They played a few hands whilst Alex showed Holly how to play, the rules and what the different hands were. Also, the different kinds of flushes you could have.
Once Holly got the hang of it, she won a few games and Alex pulled her close and kissed her every time. They played a few more card games, and Holly was having fun.
The occasional flashback happened, but Alex simply held her hand when he noticed her change in mood.
God she loved him so much, with all of her life, heart, and soul.
He was perfect.
Holly couldn’t help but let her eyes roam over Alex’s biceps as his T-shirt hugged them. The way they flexed every time he bent his arms to hide his cards. His round, tight shoulders broad, and strong. His solid square chest, and then down his rock hard abs. If nobody were there, she would’ve reached underneath to stroke his skin. Feel his muscles rippling beneath her fingertips.
“If you keep looking at me like that, we’re going to have a problem.” Alex whispered into her ear.
His breath was hot against her and Holly couldn’t help but take in a sharp breath.
“Not helping, babe.” He whispered again as she bit her lip.
“Ahem.” Ben cleared his throat, bringing their attention back to the game.
Holly risked a glance down towards Alex’s lower half, as he sat cross-legged, where a huge bulge was present. She smiled to herself and turned back to the game as Alex took a controlled, calming breath. Holly looked to Dev who was trying to hold back a laugh, waggling her eyebrows, letting her know that she saw Holly gazing lustfully at her brother.
Holly just smiled and shook her head.
Kim had made everybody lunch so they went through to the dining area to eat. The conversations stayed away from what had happened, and it was a relief.
It was too soon to talk about it, Holly thought. Too soon to talk about it casually, anyway.
Her mind had had flashes of being in the shed again. Stacey’s crazy eyes, the pictures, the gun…Holly just steered her thoughts to the fact that she was alive and unharmed, home and with Alex. His being there with her helped her to relax.
Once a flashback hit her, Alex put his arm around her, letting her know he knew what was going on, without bringing any attention to her.
They were holding hands at the table when his phone rang. Alex took it out of his pocket to check the caller ID.
“Hi Mom.” He said into the phone as his thumb traced circles on the back of Holly’s hand.
“Yeah, we’re good. How are you and Dad?”
He was silent for a while as Evie was talking. Holly could hear her voice, but not what she was saying.
“Um…I’m not sure but I’ll call you soon and let you know if that’s ok?”
His eyes watched Holly’s face as he lifted their hands that were still holding each other, to move a stray piece of hair and tucked it behind her ear, then stroking her jaw with his thumb.
“Thanks, Mom. Bye.” He said and ended the call.
“Is everything ok?“ Dev asked.
“Yeah, Mom was just checking in. Nothing to worry about.” He said before he turned back to Holly.
The look in his eyes made her heart skip a beat. He was looking at her with a fiery mix of concern and restrained passion. Like he was worried about her, but also fighting to keep his hands off her.
Maybe if we leave for a few minutes, he wouldn’t have to fight it.
Holly felt her face heat as the corners of Alex’s mouth turned up in a knowing smile. He’d totally caught her thinking sexy thoughts. Not that she’d tried to hide them since their relationship began, but she’d at least attempted to control them when in company.
It was almost impossible, though. Alex was just too. Damn. Sexy!
Her brain refused to cooperate in his presence, what with his deep chocolate brown eyes, full chewable lips, strong chiselled jaw, perfectly sculpted body, and amazingly fantastic arse.
Holly watched as Alex quickly licked his lips, and she swallowed.
Alex cleared his throat and stroked her cheek once more before holding her chin up and softly pressing his lips to hers.
Once lunch was finished, they cleaned up and headed back to the hangout room to play cards again. As they went into the hallway, Alex held Holly back out of earshot.
“My Mom asked how you were.” He said. “I didn’t want to say anything at the table.”
Holly smiled at his thoughtfulness. His Mum was worried about him too and was, most likely, missing her son. Holly was grateful Alex was staying with her, but she also felt a little selfish keeping him to herself, when his parents were just as worried as hers.
“Do you have to go and see your Mum and Dad?” She asked, and he beamed.
“Well my Mom asked whether we would go over for dinner. That’s why I said I would call her back. I wanted to ask you first because I’m not going without you, and I wasn’t going to say yes on your behalf if you didn’t want to.”
Holly’s heart couldn’t have gotten any bigger. Even though his parents missed him, and he wasn’t in his own house, he wouldn’t go anywhere without her. She felt a little bad for liking it but, she told herself it was justified. They’d have to separate at some point though as she didn’t think their parents would take kindly to having them have constant sleepovers. They may be tolerating it for now, but they could stop them soon enough.
“Of course.” She said. “You should see your parents. They’re worried about you too.”
Alex hugged her close, and Holly pressed her face into his hard chest as she inhaled his scent from his T-shirt.
“You guys ok?” asked Dev as she popped her head round the doorway.
“Yeah, we’re coming through now.” Alex said as he released Holly from his embrace, taking her hand, and they both walked into the room.
A couple of hours later, everyone left. They’d had fun and even with the flashes of memory, Holly looked Happy, which made Alex happy. Holly had let Kim and Oli know that they were going to Alex’s for dinner. They were fine with it, but Alex could see the worry in Kim’s eyes because their daughter would be out of the house.
Holly had looked into the back of Alex’s car again, before getting in. He knew this was to be expected, and it would take some time for Holly to overcome that fear, and understandably so.
They’d gotten into his house and his Mom had practically tackled the pair of them in the hallway. To say she was happy to see them was an understatement. Her eyes were filled with tears as she hugged them both. Evie had cupped Holly’s face and looked straight into her eyes. Alex knew this was a doctor thing. She was checking for signs of distress.
Evie smiled and gently patted Holly’s cheek, seemingly happy with what she saw. They went through to the dining room where Rami was setting the table. He too, hugged them both, smiling, but Alex could see his Dad was trying to disguise the worry in his expression.
“I hear Dev, Ben, and the others were visiting today.” Said Evie.
“Yeah, they left before we came here.”
“Did you have fun?” She asked, aiming the question to Holly.
“Yeah. We watched a movie and then played poker. Alex had to teach me though.”
They talked about school, work, how Holly’s gardening was progressing. They stayed off the topic of the kidnapping.
Dinner was great, and it was good to see his parents, reassuring him that he and Holly were both doing ok. He’d brought his bag that Evie had given to Kim, back with him to pick up some clean clothes. He didn’t know how long he’d be sleeping over at Holly’s.
He’d stay with her every night if he could.
If Holly felt up to it, she could stay over at his house.
It would be even better if we had our own place.
Alex went to his room, taking Holly with him, to get his clothes. Once he’d emptied his bag, he grabbed what he’d need for the next two days, plus some extra items he’d use later. He packed everything in and sat next to Holly on his bed.
“Hi.” He said as he held her around her shoulder.
“Hi.” Holly replied as she leant into him.
“Are you ok babe?” He asked as his eyes scanned her face.
“Hmmm” She answered as if thinking about it. Alex saw the glint in her eyes before she threw her leg over his thighs and straddled him.
“I am now.” She said, and Alex chuckled, sliding his hands down her back and gripped her hips.
Holly’s arms wrapped around Alex’s neck, fingers in his hair. The look in her eyes as she gazed over him was exactly the same as when they’d been playing cards.
But now, they were alone.
“You’re looking at me like that again.” He whispered. His pants getting tighter by the second.
“You’re looking at me like that too, Alexandro.” She countered, grazing her lips against his.
“I can’t help it.” He breathed. “You’re too damn sexy not to.”
“Right back at ya.” Holly pulled Alex’s lips to hers, kissing him like she hadn’t seen him for weeks.
His pants were so tight it was becoming painful. He could feel Holly’s ample breasts pressed against his chest and her toned, shapely legs either side of his.
He lowered his hands to her perfect ass and squeezed.
As Holly moaned into his mouth, their tongues swirling, licking, tasting. He couldn’t help but let out a moan himself. It came out like a growl and Holly’s thighs tightened against his.
Alex dug his heels into the floor and quickly stood, hooking his hands under her thighs. Holly gasped as he turned around and kneeled one knee on the bed. Moving forward, and laying her down on her back, her legs still around him.
Alex could hear Holly’s breath quicken, like his own. His heart rate accelerating as their bodies pressed together. He crushed his lips to hers again, exploring her warm mouth with his tongue.
He pulled back to look in her eyes.
“I told you we’d have a problem.” He said in his low, sexy voice that he knew drove Holly wild.
“I don’t see any problem.” She panted. “None at all.”
Alex pushed his hips forward into hers. Just enough for her to feel the effects of their actions. Any more and he would surely bust.
“Oh my God!” Holly squeaked.
“I told you.” He whispered into her ear before kissing under her lobe and continued leaving a trail of featherlight kisses down her neck to her collarbone. He took a deep breath in an attempt to get some control over himself. He stroked a hand down her side, to her hip, and then to her ass.
“Mmmm.” He growled, gripping her pert ass cheek as he gently sucked on her skin.
“Ah!” Holly sighed. The sound pushing Alex further to his limit.
Holly had found the hem of his T-shirt and had her hands inside, pressing her fingertips into the bare skin on his back.
He loved the feeling, like she couldn’t get enough and was gripping him tight. Holding him to her possessively.
He was hers completely, and she was his.
Together, forever, always.
Alex kissed up her neck again and captured her hot, soft lips. Sucking and licking them like he was starved, and Holly was his meal.
Holly gasped, and stilled.
“What’s wrong?” He asked.
“I think somebody’s coming up the stairs.” She whispered.
Alex listened and he too, heard somebody walking up the stairs.
As quick as a flash, Alex jumped up off of her and pulled her up to sit. He sat next to her, crossing his legs. They wouldn’t have had to do that if he’d remembered to shut the door!
He mentally kicked himself for that.
“Sorry, I forgot to shut the door.” He said.
“It’s ok.” Holly stroked his cheek. “So did I.”
A second passed and then Rami walked past Alex’s room. He paused when he saw the door open and them sitting on the bed, silent.
“Everything ok?” He asked with a slight frown.
“Yeah, thanks Dad. We were just getting ready to go back to Holly’s.”
“Ok, well, don’t forget to say goodbye before you leave”
Alex and Holly looked at each other when Rami continued past the room, and both blew out a breath.
“That was close.” Alex smiled.
“Could’ve been closer if we’d shut the door.” Holly said as her eyes roamed over Alex again.
He groaned as if in pain.
“Damn, don’t talk like that. I’m trying to calm down, and you being so fucking hot is not helping, babe.” He said as he tried to calm his breathing.
Sitting right next to Holly, their faces so close together, was only hindering his recovery.
He pressed his forehead to hers and cupped her jaw. Holly held onto his forearms, keeping him in place, not letting him go. He lightly kissed her before releasing his hold.
He stood, holding his hands out to pull Holly up too and bringing her into his arms. Holly buried her face into his chest. Their height difference had her fitting into his pecs, which he knew she loved.
“Are you ready to go, babe?” Holly nodded, and he picked up his bag, taking Holly’s hand, and leading her downstairs.
There was no need to check the back seat of the car because Alex had parked in the garage and had locked the car doors.
Holly knew there wouldn’t be any chance of Stacey coming after them again, but her mind kept going back to the moment Stacey had appeared in her car.
Sure, she would get over it, but while it was still fresh her stomach turned at the thought.
Alex’s hand tightened around hers and Holly knew he was aware of what was going on in her mind.
The flashbacks, whilst they were playing cards, were terrifying.
One minute she would be looking at her hand of cards and suddenly, images of Alex’s photographs, cut and mutilated would pop into her head. Then there was the gun, the vial of sedative and Stacey’s crazy face.
“Almost there babe.” Alex’s voice was soothing as he reassured her.
Holly leant her head against his shoulder for the rest of the journey. Just being that bit closer to Alex had settled her. Even at home, Alex staying in her bed, kept the nightmares away.
It had only been twice, but waking up next to him felt amazing. She wouldn’t mind having that everyday. It hadn’t felt strange, which was strange in itself. It was if that was where he was meant to be. Next to her, with her, not just almost naked in her bed.
Almost naked…
His marble cut abs, there for her to trace with her fingertips.
His broad, solid chest she liked to stroke.
His sculpted arms holding her.
His powerful, firm legs entwined with hers. Not forgetting his arse. Oh God, his perfect arse!
“Babe?”
“Hmm?” She answered, lost in her Alex fog.
“We’re here.” Holly could practically hear Alex smiling as she slowly came to.
“What are you thinking about?” He asked, but Holly knew she would’ve had a heated expression on her face telling him exactly what was going on in her head.
“You.” Was her smiling answer.
Alex licked his lips as Holly watched his pupils dilate. She cheekily bit on her lip as they went into the house.
Kim came out to greet them and, as expected, cast a worried glance over her daughter.
“I’ve just made coffee. Do you want some?” Kim asked them.
“Yeah, thanks.” They both replied and walked through to the kitchen.
As Kim poured coffee, she asked about dinner, and Alex’s parents. Holly felt like her Mum was just trying to check she was Ok without asking her directly. She thought this because she knew her Mum had been speaking with Evie on the phone.
“Mum…” Kim paused as Holly interrupted her. “I’m fine.” Holly smiled as Kim released a breath and then hugged Holly again.
“My baby girl.” She said, quietly, rocking them side to side. Holly enveloped in her arms. Kim slowly released her, and Holly saw her Mum’s eyes had misted.
“Really, I’m fine, Mum. Much better than yesterday.” Holly said, referring to her anxious outburst in the morning, after thoughts of Alex leaving her alone.
“Oh, babe, I’m so glad.” Kim wiped her eyes.
“There she is.” Oli said the from the doorway. Holly was, again, pulled in for a tight hug. “How are you doing baby girl?” Oli asked in an upbeat tone and Holly was glad.
“I’m great, Dad. Thanks.”
Oli turned and hugged Alex. Actually hugged him! Judging by the look on Alex’s face, he was just as surprised.
“Alex, good to see you, son. How’s things?”
“Um, great, thanks.” He said. Still taken aback by Oli’s actions.
“Excellent!” Oli beamed. He gently kissed Kim before taking her hand, leading her to the couch.
Holly’s parents asked whether they wanted to watch TV with them, but Alex said he had something to show Holly first. She was anxious to see what it was.
They sat at the dining table, and Alex got out his drawings and his new pad and pencils Holly had bought him. He’d promised her he would show her the pictures he’d drawn of her.
Somehow they’d not managed to get around to it.
Holly was gob smacked when she saw Alex’s artwork. He’d memorised her details and drawn her, at home, each drawing as flawless as the last. She saw the one that he was drawing, on the photo, shown at his and Dev’s party.
“Wow, Alex, these are fantastic!” She said in awe.
“Thanks, babe.” He replied and kissed her temple.
Alex, as he’d already told her, had been watching her from the moment they’d met.
Holly’s smile couldn’t get any bigger.
“You’re so talented.” She gushed and saw Alex blush from her compliments. Holly wrapped her arms around him.
“You’re truly amazing. Do you know that?” Holly looked him in the eyes. Eyes she always got lost in.
“Thank you.” He blushed again.
“You are, you know. You’re an amazingly wonderful person. Unbelievably talented, kind, smart, and being absolutely drop-dead-gorgeous is a plus too.” Alex laughed when Holly added on the ‘gorgeous’ part. She meant it though. Holly felt so blessed to have him in her life and for him to want her as much too… it was phenomenal.
“You are too, babe. I’ve never met anyone like you. Insanely smart, funny, generous, and, yes I’m going there too, the most beautiful and…” He lowered his voice, “…Sexiest creature on the planet that makes it extremely difficult for me to walk straight.” Alex chuckled when Holly’s eyes widened.
Holly pulled him closer and kissed him, hard.
She felt his arms tighten around her, his fingers splayed across her back. She tangled her fingers in his hair. Sucking his lower lip, Holly ran her tongue over the edge and then released. Kissing him some more.
“Ahem.” Oli cleared his throat from across the room. Maybe their kiss was getting a little hot. Ok, a lot hot.
“Thanks.” Oli said as they pulled apart. “Let’s keep this a family show.” He snickered. Kim giggled too and winked at them.
Once they’d calmed. Alex began to draw a picture for Holly. It was unreal how fast Alex could draw and with so much detail. In about ten minutes, he’d drawn a daffodil.
It’s just like a black and white photo.
“Oh my God, thank you!” She squealed. “I’ll get this framed.”
“You’re welcome.” He said, shyly.
Kim and Oli moved over to the table to look at what Alex had drawn. A fresh round of ‘amazing’ and ‘unbelievable’ comments were said and Alex looked a little embarrassed at the attention.
After a short while, they tidied the things away and had watched TV with her parents. Kim was pleased they were there, but they had to behave themselves which proved extremely difficult!
Holly had yawned through most of the episode of ‘American Horror Story’ so they decided to head upstairs.
Holly and Alex showered, separately, and had gotten into bed. They talked about Holly’s birthday the next day.
Even though Holly was feeling almost back to her usual self, some of the excitement had been taken away. Before, if she’d know Em and her Nan were visiting, she would’ve been beside herself with joy to see them. Now, though, she was more apprehensive about it, even though she was still looking forward to seeing them again. She didn’t want the whole ordeal to be on everyone’s minds, depressing them when the day should be a happy occasion.
Where she should be planning to go out with Alex, Dev and their friends, she just wanted to stay at home.
The girls had said how eager they were to give her their gifts, and the guys had joked about Holly being the baby of the group, and the last of them to become an adult.
“Hey beautiful.” Alex said into her ear as he cuddled her. “Try to get some rest.” He softly pecked her lips before tangling their legs together.
Holly awoke to the sound of the garage door lifting and her parents driving away. She glanced at the clock. Twelve twenty-five am.
“Hey, you ok babe?” Alex whispered as he stroked her hair. The noise must have woken him too.
“Yeah. Just the garage door woke me.” Holly turned on her side to face Alex and lifted her thigh over his.
He stroked a finger down her cheek, following its path with his eyes.
Holly pressed her palm to his chest and rubbed up to his shoulders and down again. She sighed as the feel of his warm, tight skin sent tingles up her arms. Holly moved in further and kissed his chest, her hands stroking down over his abs.
“Holly” Alex groaned. His hands running up her back. One reaching the back of her head, fingers through her hair.
She moaned as she kissed up his chest, to his collarbone, and into the base of his throat. Causing him to hiss.
“Fuck, babe!” He breathed as her tongue licked the hollow in his neck. Holly moaned in pleasure as she reached around to grip Alex’s firm arse.
As she pulled back, Alex took her mouth, passionately, tasting her, sucking her lips, his tongue exploring.
Alex shifted and carefully rolled Holly onto her back, settling between her thighs. He rested on his elbows, either side of her and held her head in his hands as he deepened their kiss.
Holly felt her entire body quiver as he moved over her. She ran her hands up his back and his muscles tensed beneath them. She was breathing heavily as Alex pulled away and began kissing along her jaw to under her ear. Her fingers pressed harder into his flesh with the wave of heat surging between her legs.
Alex let out a low growl when her legs tightened against his thighs. Holly felt Alex’s hot breath against her ear.
“Quiero tocarte.” He whispered.
Holly took in a quick breath and whimpered as she bit down on her lip. He said he wanted to touch her. She wanted him to, so much.
He kissed her neck, softly. His luscious lips deliciously torturing her skin as he continued kissing down to her shoulder. His hands releasing her head, allowing him access.
He reached her collarbone and with just the very tip of his tongue, Holly felt him lick across to the hollow in her throat, sending shivers through her body. Her legs squeezed him, and her fingers gripped his hair. Her back arched slightly, involuntarily, as Alex continued his decent down to her chest.
Holly’s body was on fire from his kisses alone, but she wanted more. She needed more. One of his hands stroked down her side to her waist, his fingers tightening, moaning as he caressed her skin.
“Oh God!” She squeaked. Alex released his grip before moving to her rear.
“You’re so fucking sexy.” He growled against her skin.
Her heart rate increased, arousal pumping through her veins as he spoke in that tone. Low and so damn hot.
“Fuck!” She cried as a powerful jolt hit her core. Alex hadn’t done much to her and she was already hurting.
Holly wanted to get closer to him. To feel his skin against her skin.
No barriers, no restrictions.
Alex’s hand drifted back up towards her hip and under her vest; his fingers spread out across her stomach.
His hand continued up, caressing her flesh until he found her right breast.
“Holy shit.” His voice sounded strained as he cupped his hand around her, feeling that she was bare under her top. He’d gotten that surprise after she’d showered following their gardening. He hadn’t hesitated this time, knowing she didn’t wear a bra under her PJ’s.
Alex lightly kneaded her, and Holly gasped as the sensations caused her eyes to flutter.
“Ahhh.” She breathed out, and Alex planted an open mouthed kiss on her neck.
He lifted his head, shifted his weight up so that he was above her, and took he mouth hard.
He tangled his tongue with hers and Holly sucked, circling her tongue around his. Alex growled louder, the sound reverberating through his chest. The carnal sounds only heightening her arousal.
“Alex.” She said in a shaky breath.
“You turn me on so much, babe.” He whispered against her lips.
“Good”
“Mi chica mala.” He said, bringing his other hand under her vest to cup her left breast too.
Holly cried out when Alex brushed his thumbs over her hard nipples. Her back arched up and her hands flew from Alex’s solid back and fisted in the sheet.
Her core was throbbing with need, and she was in pain.
She wanted Alex to touch her, to ease her.
Alex kissed her again, and she managed to uncurl her fists to run her hands over his incredible body. Her fingertips stroked up his spine, over his shoulder blades and to his neck. She carried on the journey over his chest and down his upper arms, squeezing his flexed biceps before running her hands down his forearms. She reached the hem of her vest, as Alex broke their kiss, looking her in the eyes.
The love in his eyes made hers tear up.
“Baby?” He asked, his expression concerned.
“I love you.”
“I love you, my precious girl.”
Alex released her breasts, still watching her eyes. He took hold of the hem of her vest and slowly pulled up. Holly nodded, and she lifted her upper half up of the bed so Alex could remove it.
His mouth hung open, and his eyes widened as he threw her top to the floor.
“Hhhh. Oh…My…” He took a deep, deep breath. “Santo mierda!” He whisper shouted, his eyes roaming over her naked torso. He leant on one elbow to support himself above her, her other hand running lazily over her stomach and up to her now-uncovered breasts.
“Eres tan perfecta.” He said, quietly, sending goosebumps over her skin. She didn’t get time to answer because Alex brought his head down and kissed her breast.
Holly mewled as the sensations made her legs quiver.
Alex resumed the kneading of Holly’s large orbs and gently pinched her nipple with his finger and thumb. She barely opened her mouth to take a breath when she felt his hot, wet tongue across her hard tip before he closed his mouth around it, and sucked.
Holly’s hands grasped Alex’s head, gripping his hair.
“Oh, Oh, God!” She panted.
Her heart was pounding so hard; she thought it would burst through her chest. Her core producing so much heat she could set fire to the bed.
She couldn’t take anymore without screaming out.
Holly was trying to stay quiet whilst Alex was exploring her body. Turning her on, setting her alight, making her cry out in sweet agony.
Her aching parts begged for relief.
She wanted it.
She wanted Alex to give it to her.
He released her sensitive nipple and showed the same attention to the other.
He kissed up her neck and stilled, breathing heavy, perspiration on his skin.
Holly could feel his heart thundering in his chest against her.
“Babe, what’s wrong?” She asked.
She had a feeling he was trying to calm himself. They’d gone further than ever and, considering their inexperience, it was a lot to handle at once. It was if they’d been building up to that moment. Getting to a point where they reached their limit, only to surpass it the next time.
Alex lifted his head and smiled.
“Absolutely nothing.” He replied in that ‘take me now’ tone and sinfully sexy glint in his eye. He leant down and sucked her bottom lip, running the tip of his tongue along the edge, sending, if it were even possible, more electricity to shoot to her already painful centre.
“Alex.” She said, her voice breathy and urgent. Her hands gliding down his back, digging her fingers into his hard muscles, making him growl.
Holly carried on with her decent until she reached the waistband of his PJ pants. She pushed underneath and inside the band of his underwear, grabbing his bare arse. His muscles tight and round.
As she gripped, his hips pushed into hers and she felt a long, hard bulge against her.
“Oh fuck! Holly!” He said between gritted teeth.
Holly licked her lips as she squeezed his arse a second time.
“Baby, I’ll burst if you keep that up.” He groaned.
She removed a hand and held his head, bringing his lips to hers. She lifted her legs up and kicked the covers away and wrapped them around the backs of his thighs, his hard on hitting her centre again.
Holly felt the now familiar buzz between her legs, letting her know she was close.
She broke their kiss and scrunched her eyes, holding her breath in a feeble attempt at calming the pulsing in her core.
Alex ran a hand down her side until her reached her rear. He followed what she had done and dipped his hand his hand into the back of her PJ’s and inside her underwear. He made the carnal sounds that stirred Holly’s arousal and she looked up into his eyes to see him staring back. His pupils taking over completely in his heightened sexual state.
“So fucking perfect” He said before lowering his head and whispering into her ear. “I want to touch you babe. I want to make you cum.”
Holly’s breath caught in her throat at his words.
Her legs squeezed, the throbbing excruciating.
“Do you want me to, baby?” He asked and licked the outer shell of her ear.
“Ah! Yes! Oh my…” She squirmed underneath him. Wanting so bad to relieve the pain.
He moved his hand, slowly, around to her front, lifting his head to silently check it was ok.
She loved how he was so considerate of her. Even though she wanted him, needed him, to touch her. To make her go over the edge from his caress. She quickly nodded her head and his hand turned so his palm was against the front of her hip.
He moved over her lower stomach and then down to her aching parts.
His thumb found her hard bundle of nerves. He circled once, and Holly’s body bucked. Her head fell back against her pillow, her legs shaking. She felt his finger slide down between her folds and back up.
It felt so good.
“Oh God…Alex” She said, her voice thick.
“Is that good?” His own voice strained like he was using every ounce of control to keep himself steady.
“Yes.” She breathed and then moaned as his finger slid up and down and then circled her nub. He brushed his lips against hers as his finger slid down further towards her entrance, and he rubbed over it gently.
“Mmmm. You’re wet.” He said into her mouth.
She knew she would be. She could feel it.
Holly darted her tongue out to lick his lip. Alex closed his eyes tight and took a controlled breath. He rubbed her entrance again and Holly’s hips responded by moving against him.
She felt the tip of his finger push inside of her. She gripped his shoulders at the alien sensation, but it felt…good.
He pushed further, slowly, before pressing his thumb to her nub.
Holly cried out.
Seeing he wasn’t hurting her; Alex gently withdrew his finger before pushing in again.
“Fuck!” He growled as he continued running his finger in and out. He circled her nub again, and Holly’s breathing was frantic.
His finger felt amazing inside of her. The waves of pleasure he was creating with just his hand was intense.
Holly felt the buzz so strong, all over her, through her, and she was going over.
The tremors started, and she couldn’t stop them.
“Alex…Oh…My…I’m…gonna…Ahhh!”
Her breathing stopped as the fire ignited in her core, radiating to every inch of her skin as stars clouded her vision. Her body arched with ecstasy, her insides gripping Alex’s finger as it slid in and out.
“I’ll never get tired of that.” She heard him say when she was coming down from her earth shattering orgasm. He removed his hand from between her legs and lowered his head to take her lips.
Holly reached down to Alex’s pants and pushed down.
He broke their kiss and looked at Holly, lids hooded. She continued to push his pants and boxers down, but she could only reach so far with their size difference.
“Holly…” He said with a growl.
“I want you.” She said with purpose.
“I want you too.” He said, his forehead against hers. He swallowed before he gripped the sides of her own clothes and slowly pulled down.
Holly lifted her hips so he could remove them. He froze once he slipped her garments over her ankles, dropping them to the floor.
Holly was completely naked before him.
Instead of feeling shy or self-conscious, the looks he gave her made her feel sexy and confident.
He sat back on his heels as his eyes went from her face and travelled down, zeroing in-between her legs. He licked his lips, lifting his gaze to reach her face again.
“You’re so beautiful.” He whispered as if he couldn’t believe what he was seeing.
Holly’s eyes scanned Alex’s body.
His perfectly chiseled abs and square chest.
Round shoulders and ripped biceps.
Her mouth watered just looking at him.
She looked down to his lower half, and her mouth popped open at the size of the tent in his pants.
She lifted and kneeled up to stroke his chest, planting kisses on each side. She caressed him and felt his skin shudder underneath her fingers.
His washboard abs tensed under her touch.
Holly reached round his waist and stroked his tight cheeks, his waistband halfway down from where she had pushed them. She held each side and pulled them down. He lifted off his heels, and Holly pushed them further, over his hips, catching on his hard length. She slowed as he sprang free and then pushed down his thighs, still pressing light kisses as she went.
Alex was shaking, his breathing slow and controlled.
He really was having to concentrate hard! It pleased Holly that she was the cause of his state. It turned her on so much, knowing he was hard, for her.
Holly looked down to catch a glimpse of Alex’s completely naked body, as he shifted to remove his pants from under his knees, and she gasped in shock and then swallowed hard.
He was huge!
She knew it was going to hurt, but she wasn’t concerned. She just wasn’t sure he would fit.
She licked her lips as she looked up into his beautiful brown eyes, smoothing her hands up to his neck as he wrapped his arms around her waist, stroking up and down her skin, sending ripples of pleasure down to her sensitive nub.
She was so ready.
His hot, hard flesh pressed to her stomach. The feel of his shaft against her own skin sent her pulse racing.
Alex’s hands came round to her front, cupping both of her breasts. Her breath hissed, and he dropped his head, taking a nipple into his mouth. Holly’s head fell back, and she gripped his hair.
“Alex!” She cried as he moved to her other breast.
Kneading, sucking, licking…
He looked up to her face and kissed her lips.
“Quiero hacer el amor contigo.”
Holly knew what he’d said, and the sound of his voice, together with his words, caused a rush of heat between her legs.
“Sí. Ahora mismo.” She replied.
Alex crashed his lips to hers, his tongue plunging into her mouth. He kissed her passionately whilst laying her back down on the bed, Holly parting her legs, allowing him to settle there again.
Holly raked her fingers down his back to his arse and gripped. Alex paused, pulse racing, his eyes black and breathing heavy.
He reached to the nightstand for his wallet, and took out the foil wrapper that his parents had put in his birthday card. He ripped it open and sat back to sheath himself.
“It’s not as easy as I thought.” He murmured, but seemed to manage when he moved over her again.
“Are you sure?” He asked. Holly lifted her legs around Alex’s hips, holding tight.
“Alex…I love you…I want you.”
“Baby, I love you so, so much.” He replied.
Holly felt a hand drift down her chest, her stomach, and to her nub. Alex’s finger slid through her folds again, making Holly cry out.
He dipped his finger inside her and moved back and forth a couple of times before pulling out.
Then, she felt it.
Alex was lined up to her opening.
He pushed forwards into her and Holly felt a sharp pinch of pain.
Alex paused.
“Don’t stop.” She breathed.
“I’m sorry, I’m hurting you.” He said quickly, apologetically.
“Don’t be. It’s supposed to the first time.” She assured him. “Please don’t stop.”
Alex kissed her lips, tasting her mouth, tongues twirling together. He pushed further. It hurt, but not enough to make Holly want to stop.
Alex continued until his hips touched her, and he stopped, letting her adjust to him inside of her.
“I’m ok baby; you can move.” She said as her body relaxed.
He pulled back slightly before pushing forward again.
“I love you.” Holly stroked his cheek, the look of worry on his face that he was hurting her.
“I love you, Holly. Always.” He took her mouth again as he slowly rocked back and forth into her. “Mmmm.” He moaned. “You feel fucking amazing.” He said through heavy breaths.
Holly’s legs shook uncontrollably.
“Oh…My…God…Yes!” She cried out as the pressure built in her core. Faster this time, like Alex had flicked some magic switch inside her to ‘on’, hitting it every time he drove into her.
“Alex.” She gasped, her hand gripping his back. “It’s…Oh…so…good…ah!” Tears filled her eyes as they made love.
Joined together like they should be.
Loving each other.
“I feel like I’m…going to…again…Oh fuck…Alex!” She screamed.
Her core tightened, and she wrapped her legs around his waist as his thrusts came faster.
“Holly.” He said through gritted teeth.
“Oh, oh…Aaaghh!” Holly came apart, harder than before, her body convulsing like an electric current had flashed through her, and her nails dug into Alex’s back.
Alex shuddered above her as he too, went over the edge. His shaft expanded, and he growled into her neck, still thrusting into her.
His movements slowed down until he stopped.
Breathing hard, skin slick from perspiration.
As they came down from their orgasmic high, Holly cupped his cheek, their gazing at each other.
“That was perfect.” She said, smiling up at the love of her life. He brushed his thumb across her cheek.
“It was perfect…and always be.”
Alex withdrew from her and lay on his side. Stroking her face, kissing her lips.
“I need to get rid of this.” He said, referring to the condom.
“Ok, babe” Holly replied before pecking him on the lips. Alex removed the condom and tied a knot in it before standing to pick up his clothes.
“Oh dear God.” Holly whispered.
“What’s up?”
Holly’s eyes were looking him up and down.
“Looking that sexy should be illegal.” She said, which made Alex laugh.
“Tell me about it.” He replied as he gazed over her naked body. He groaned as he clamped his eyes shut.
“What?”
“Seeing you naked is making me hard again.” He said. “And you need to recover first.” Alex groaned again as he headed to her bathroom.
Holly would need to recover. She understood what Alex meant. She was a little sore now, and it would probably be worse later.
She remembered the other girls wincing in pain when they sat down the day after losing their virginity.
I’m not a virgin anymore.
She couldn’t be happier. She loved Alex so much, and making love with him was perfect.
Holly sighed happily. She got off her bed and saw small dots of blood. She quickly tore the sheet from the bed and put it in her laundry basket.
The shower turned on and Holly, immediately, thought of Alex’s naked body.
She had an idea…
Alex was still in a state of bliss as he turned on Holly’s shower. He’d just been part of the greatest thing ever to have happened. He’d made love to his Holly. It was the most perfect, amazing experience in his life and knowing they’d be doing that over and over again, made him even happier. He didn’t know he’d managed to keep himself from coming in his pants. He almost had a few times, but controlled himself by taking deep breaths, trying to name the sports and even clenching his jaw to the point of pain.
It got harder to control once he’d removed Holly’s vest and gazed at her large, pink mounds. He’d caressed them, kneaded them, even taken the nipples into his mouth. They’d tasted like Holly’s lips. Warm and sweet. When he’d had his hand in her panties, he almost came then, too. As soon as he felt her slick folds, his dick was so hard he could’ve hammered a nail with it.
He’d pushed a finger inside of her and she was already wet for him. Her walls felt hot and tight around his finger, and he’d loved it, wanting to take her there and then when she came. She looked so beautiful as she reached her climax, and he loved watching her. He knew where they were headed but when Holly had started to pull on his pants, he almost lost control. Instead, he pulled her pants off first. When she’d seen his hard cock, he saw the surprise in her eyes and was about to reassure her he’d be careful, when he was stopped by the hungry look that replaced it.
Once they’d lain down, he’d gotten the condom from his wallet, that his Mom had insisted he put in there, ‘thanks Mom!’ he’d sheathed himself. Sex.ed class had made it sound so easy to do. ‘Pinch the end and roll down’. Yeah, they forgot to mention it was slippery and more difficult to keep hold of than to roll it down.
Once he got it, and reached for Holly again, he’d stroked through her folds and dipped a finger in and out, checking she was ready… and she definitely was.
He positioned himself and pushed. Her body wrapped around his shaft was incredible. She felt hot, tight, and perfect. He knew it was going to hurt her at first, but she’d assured him she was fine and not to stop.
He tried to hold on for as long as he could. The pleasure rising, the tingles over his skin, the blood pumping through his dick… Every part of him tightened as he felt Holly’s walls clamp around him and he couldn’t hold back as he came…hard. It was nothing like the times he’d had to satisfy himself. It was much more powerful. It was as if his very soul had merged with hers as they released together.
Alex knew now. He knew it wasn’t too soon. Not too soon to feel like he did, like they did, and know it was forever. He’d wanted to wait for the right time. But, there was no ‘right time’ for him; he was certain. He was waiting for the right time for Holly, but he felt it, in his heart, that she knew it too.
“Can I come in?” Holly asked as she knocked, softly, on the door.
“Of course!” He replied, and Holly walked into the bathroom. He felt her hands wrap around him as he faced the water. He smiled and turned, reaching down to grip her ass.
“Now I have you naked in my shower…” She said with a cheeky smile “…What am I going to do with you?”
Alex’s cock jumped at Holly’s words, making her gasp in surprise.
“Aren’t you sore?” He asked. They couldn’t make love again, even if she wasn’t. She could get pregnant.
“A little bit.” She replied “But…” she kissed his chest. “I couldn’t help noticing…” she stood on her tiptoes and kissed his neck. “You’re hard again.”
Alex’s whole body tensed. He’d like nothing more than to be inside her again, but there was no way he was going to hurt her.
“God…Holly.” He clenched his jaw as she ran her hand down his abs, then his V-line.
“I can help with that” she teased, bringing her hand down and stroking his now rock-hard shaft, making him hiss. “Wow, it’s hard and soft at the same time.” She said, licking her lips.
“Jesus, Holly!” He groaned, going even harder in her hand. Her fingers tightened around him and stroked back and forth. Her hand felt good on him. Better than when she’d stroked him through his jeans. He felt her kiss his chest again and lick between his pecs.
She bent her knees and licked from his abs all the way up to his neck.
“God, you’re fantastic.” She murmured as she nipped his skin with her teeth.
“Babe.” His voice came out strangled as she continued to work her hand.
Holly lifted her head and with her other hand, pulled his mouth down to hers. Alex gripped her amazing ass and cupped her head, keeping her mouth to his. He released her butt cheek and brought his hand up to cup a breast, causing Holly to moan into his mouth, sending goosebumps over him. The noises she made turned him on further.
He pinched her nipple then released her, gliding his hand down her stomach to her hard nub. He slipped his fingers between her folds, rubbing over her sensitive nerves. Her grip tightened slightly around his cock. Holly widened her stance and Alex slid his finger towards her opening, but not entering, when she winced a little. He started to pull his hand back, but was surprised when Holly grabbed his hand and moved him back to where he was.
“You can, it’s ok.” She said, breathless.
“I don’t want to hurt you.” He said gently. It was true. No matter how much he wanted to do it, he couldn’t hurt her.
“I want you to.” Holly released his hand when he stroked her folds. “Oh yes!” She said before she kissed him hard.
Holly would need to slow her hand because he could feel the pressure building. Her hips bucked against his hand, and he slipped his finger inside her.
Holly moaned as he entered, but it wasn’t from pain.
“I want you again…so much.” She said. “I’m hurting there again.” Alex knew exactly what she meant, but he couldn’t.
“You’re sore, and I…I don’t have any more condoms.” He said, sadly.
Holly smiled, a knowing smile.
“Don’t go anywhere.” She said as she kissed him quickly, releasing her grip on him and exited the shower. She left the bathroom and reappeared a couple of seconds later, with a condom. Alex must have looked surprised because she explained where she got it from.
“You keep them in your nightstand. I put them in your bag when you went into the closet.” She said as she resumed her grip on him.
The condoms Riss and Kayla had bought for his birthday; he’d decided to keep them close. ‘Just in case’.
“A girl needs to be prepared.” She said, and Alex chuckled.
“You’re so bad.” He said as he took her mouth and suckled her lip. He reached down to her swollen clit and rubbed before dipping his finger inside her again.
“Alex…yes.” She whimpered as he broke to take a steadying breath. He felt moisture around his finger and Holly’s walls begin to clench. He withdrew and rubbed her opening.
“Please Alex.” She whispered. “You won’t hurt me. I want you to make love to me again… Now.”
That was all he needed to hear. He took the condom and tore open the packet. Holly let go if his pulsating cock so he could sheath it. He ran his hands down her back and cupped her ass. Running further down to the back of her thighs and swiftly picked her up, leaning her back against the tiled wall.
He’d held her like that, against the spare bedroom door just over a week ago, imagining that very moment.
Alex positioned himself and slowly pushed up into her.
“Mmmmm.” She groaned as he buried himself inside.
“Does it hurt?” He asked. He needed to know so he could, somehow, make it stop.
“No. It’s fantastic. Alex, you can move.” She pleaded as her hips rocked against him.
“Fuck!” He ground out as his cock flinched. He wanted to move. He wanted to pleasure her. Hearing her, feeling her urging him on was his undoing. Burying his face in her neck, he pulled back and thrusted back in.
“Oh!” She squeaked. Her walls clenched around him as he plunged into her over and over again, her magnificent breasts pressed against his chest.
“Baby, don’t stop.” She panted.
“Holly…I love being inside you…having you around me… You don’t know how good this feels to me.” He said breathlessly.
“I know I love feeling you inside me.” She squeaked as his thrusts came faster. “It feels…agh!…so good…so…Oh my God!”
Alex lifted his head to look at her as he stroked in and out. She cupped his face with her hand.
“Alex.” She whispered, her eyes fluttering. He could feel her legs trembling where he was holding her. Her inner walls tightening more around his shaft.
“I’m…Oh…Ahh!” She cried out as her orgasm hit.
“Baby.” He breathed, Holly’s insides gripped him hard as he felt himself reach his limit.
“God…Holly.” His cock throbbed and grew before he emptied into her, pulsing as it did.
Alex slowed as they came down from their ground shaking orgasm, their breathing ragged, hearts pounding.
“Oh my God.” He said as he pressed his forehead to hers.
“I’m sorry. I couldn’t help myself” Holly said but she was smiling widely. Alex grinned at her. “Ok, I’m not sorry at all.” She said as she bit her lip mischievously.
“My bad girl.” He growled before kissing her sweet, full lips.
He pulled out of her and gently lowered her to the floor. He removed the condom, tied it and wrapped it in tissue before throwing it in the bin. He stepped back in the shower and into the arms of his true love.
Alex reached for the body wash, and squirted some into his palm. He rubbed his hands together and rubbed the suds over Holly’s shoulders and down her arms. He licked his lips as the water and bubbles ran down her heavy breasts, her stomach…
Holly washed him too. Her hands rubbing all over his chest and torso. Alex pressed his lips to hers as the water rinsed their skin. Holly shut off the shower and Alex got the towels, and they dried, dressing into their PJ’s again.
In the bedroom, Alex saw that the sheet was missing from the bed and he instantly knew why. Holly must have bled when they’d given each other their virginity.
“It was a little, baby. Nothing to worry about. Holly reassured him as she held his hand.
He gazed into her eyes and saw her love staring back at him. He stroked her cheek with his thumb.
“I love you so much, Holly”
“I love you too, Alex.” He held her tight to his chest for a moment, breathing her in. Feeling her warmth against him.
“Suddenly I’m really tired” Holly said, trying to hide a giggle.
“Yeah, me too. I wonder why?” He said, chuckling. They fixed a dean sheet on the bed, and Alex winked at her before getting in and pulling the covers over them booth.
“Hmmm” Holly sighed against his chest. “Happy birthday to me.” She said, making him laugh.
“The gift that keeps on giving” He laughed.
“I’m counting on it” she replied.
“Happy birthday, my love.” Alex whispered, and they both fell asleep.
Holly awoke to Alex’s eyes on her face.
“Good morning birthday girl.” He said as he pushed a lock of hair from her cheek.
“Good morning, baby” she purred and reached behind him to squeeze his rear, making him growl.
Alex attacked her neck, and she squealed.
“How are you feeling?” He asked, lifting his head.
“I’m feeling fantastic.” She replied, because she did. After what they’d done, together, she did feel great, and already wanting more. Her parts were stinging though. Maybe she’d have to wait a while before pouncing on Alex.
“What about you?” she asked. A slow smile crept across his face.
“I’m feeling incredible.” He beamed. “You feel incredible.” He said as he ran his hand down her side.
“Hol, are you up?” Kim asked, knocking on the door.
“Yeah, we’ll be down soon” she replied as Alex dropped his head down onto the pillow beside her, face first, making her giggle.
“Ok baby girl.” Kim said, and they heard her walking back down the stairs.
Holly turned to look at Alex, and she saw he had a huge smile as his face was pressed down. She was about to say something when she felt his hand continue down her side, gliding down her thigh, and then up…stopping to grip her butt.
“Keep that up, mister, and we won’t be going anywhere.” She said sultrily.
Alex groaned.
“Baby, that’s cruel.” He said, lifting his head. Holly giggled and got out of bed, walking to her bathroom. She glanced back, over her shoulder to Alex who was watching her with hungry eyes. She grasped the hem of her vest and pulled it over her head and then threw it towards him, showing her naked back.
“Fuck!” He whined, and she hooked her thumbs onto the sides of her pants, starting to pull them down, just as she got inside the bathroom.
“Grrrr” She heard, coming from Alex. She winked at him, over her shoulder, and closed the door, giggling to the sounds of Alex groaning.
Holly quickly showered and washed her hair. Trying to ignore the not-so-good throbbing between her legs. She dried, wrapping the towel around herself and went back into the bedroom. Alex’s mouth dropped open when he saw her and Holly felt tingles all over her skin from the heat in his eyes.
“You…um…you look…wow.” He said, shakily and he stood.
Holly couldn’t help her eyes roaming over him too, her lips parting.
“You’re looking at me that way babe.” His tone low and husky.
“Speak for yourself” she replied, her knees turning to jelly at his lustful gaze.
Her eyes lowered to the enormous tent in his pants, her core heating.
“Sorry” Alex swallowed, apologising for his hard on.
Holly walked towards him and ran her hands over his abs and round his waist, pressing her lips to his chest.
His hands stroked up her bare arms, to her shoulders, and down to the edge of her towel. Holly took a step back when Alex pulled the towel open and let it drop to the floor.
“Holy Jesus!” He gasped.
He ran his hand down and cupped her heavy mounds, pushing them up slightly, and stooping down to cover a nipple with his mouth.
“Ohhh!” Holly’s head fell back as she moaned.
She felt warmth pooling in her centre. The painful throbbing replaced with arousal. She stroked her hands Down Alex’s V-line and pushed her fingers into his waistband. She reached until she found his engorged cock and took it in her hand, stroking back and forth.
“Fuck…babe.” He hissed against her chest.
Holly pulled on his pants and underwear until they dropped to his feet. She looked down an Alex’s hard shaft, and her mouth watered. She bent her knees…
“Babe, what are you doing?” Alex asked, nervously.
“I want to try something” She replied as her knees met the floor. She held his dick in her hand as she ran her tongue over the tip.
“Oh. My…!” Alex gritted his teeth as he clamped his mouth shut.
Seeing Alex’s dick flinch, aroused Holly further. She licked all the way up his shaft, from root to tip and then took him in her mouth, bobbing her head. Alex’s legs were shaking and his breathing erratic. The noises of pleasure he was making made Holly’s aching core pulse with need.
“Babe, stop. I can’t…not like this.” Alex said, holding Holly’s arms and pulling her up. His cock came out of her mouth with a ‘pop’.
“Wasn’t it good?” She asked, confused. He certainly sounded like he was enjoying it.
“Yes, God, yes. Too good.”
“Then why did you stop me?”
“Because I would’ve…in your mouth.” He replied, and Holly saw a flush across his cheeks.
“That was the point.” She said with a smile.
“I want to do that in you, When I’m deep inside you. We have all the time in the world for… that, but right now I want to make love to you.”
The look in his eyes, as he said the words, had Holly’s eyes misting. “But you’ll be sore, babe. We should wait…”
“No” she said adamantly. “I’m not sore anymore. I was, but now I’m hurting, only because I want you so bad. Now sit.” She demanded, pointing at the bed.
Alex’s eyes widened in surprise, and a smile crept across his lips. He sat back on the bed, in all his naked gorgeousness, and scooted back a little.
“Further back, and lie down.” Holly said with a purr.
Alex did as he was told, and Holly moved with him. She dropped her head quickly and licked his shaft as she went, Alex’s back arching.
She came to a stop above his hips. He reached up and held her breasts in his hands, rubbing across her nipples.
“That’s so good.” She whispered as she bit her lip. Alex released one of them, and Holly felt his fingertips on her hot centre. “Oh!” She cried, but trying to keep her voice quiet.
Alex circled her nub and slid his finger between her folds, to her opening, seeming to test for discomfort. He reached to the nightstand for a foil packet and quickly sheathed himself.
Holly reached down, when Alex found her wet and ready for him. She gripped his rock hard length and positioned it at her entrance and slowly lowered herself, until their bodies met.
She felt full, too full, but it felt so damn good to have Alex inside her that she didn’t care.
“Babe, don’t move yet.” Alex panted. He reached up to her head, sitting up a little, and pulled her to him, to kiss her. His cock jumped, and Holly squeaked into his mouth. “Ok." Alex whispered before kissing her again.
Holly started to roll her hips, like she’d been taught in belly-dancing. Kayla had mentioned the move was like the scene in Game Of Thrones when the girl taught Daenerys to ride her husband.
Holly continued to roll, and they couldn’t keep their mouths together as they were breathing too hard. Alex lay back and gripped Holly’s hips, watching her breasts bouncing as she rode him.
“You’re so beautiful. I love you so much.” He choked out.
“I love you too, Alex.” Holly replied with a strangled breath. She felt the pressure build quicker. The tingling stronger. Riding Alex felt so good she could cry.
Her hands were all over him, feeling his tight muscles contract with pleasure was turning her on even more.
“Oh God!” She squeaked as the intensity became so powerful she couldn’t keep her eyes open.
“Babe, oh fuck, Holly…I’m…”
“Alex! Oh yes…Oh!” Holly fell apart as Alex pushed up into her.
Filling every part of her, her inner muscles contracting around him as she came, his own release spurting hot inside her.
Holly collapsed onto his chest, out of breath like she’d sprinted against Usain Bolt.
“That was…” Alex couldn’t finish his sentence.
“Fucking amazing.” Holly finished for him. Alex pushed her hair away from her face, and she looked up into his eyes and smiled.
“I need to ask you something.” He said as he placed an arm under his head.
“Anything.”
“Well, I was going to wait but I can’t and… well…I know it’s a little soon”
“Alex?” Holly was feeling nervous. She had no idea what he was going to say, but he seemed anxious the more he talked, and she was growing concerned.
“Oh, this isn’t coming out right. Hang on.” He took a deep breath before he continued.
“We’ve been together just over a week now. We’ve known each other for just over five weeks. But…I feel as if I’ve known you my whole life. Like we’re connected. Like fate. I never believed in soul mates until I met you. You are my missing piece, Holly, and I will love you always and forever.” Alex swallowed.
Holly was stunned at what he had said. His words were so beautiful, and true. She felt exactly the same way.
“You just described how I feel about you.” She said, tears now spilling down her cheeks.
“I’m glad you said that.” He blew out a breath in relief, wiping her tears with his thumbs.
“Good, because I do.” Holly’s lips were quivering, and Alex ran his fingertips over them.
“That’s why I wanted to ask you this.” He said, sitting up, taking Holly’s hands in his. “Holly. Will you marry me?”
As soon as Holly heard the words, her eyes widened and her breathing stopped. Her heart thundered against her sternum, threatening to break out.
“Babe?” Alex sounded concerned. “Is it too soon? It’s too soon. I’m sor…”
“Alex” Holly said, cutting him off. “I love you. More than anything. More than life itself. I know you’re the other half of me. I felt it when we met. I didn’t understand how I could be in love with anybody let alone in that instant. Alex…I would love nothing more than to be your wife. Yes. I will marry you.”
Alex’s face turned into a face splitting grin before he wrapped his arms around her, kissing her deeply, tenderly, passionately.
Holding her tight, he turned them so Holly was underneath him. He reached under her pillow and pulled out a small black box, and Holly realised he’d planned on asking her. It wasn’t just a whim.
He opened the box, and Holly was shocked at the beautiful square cut diamond solitaire ring, sparkling there. It looked antique.
“This was Abuela’s mothers.” He said as he took it out of the box and slipped the ring on her third finger.
“It fits perfectly.” She said, amazed.
“I know.” He smirked, and Holly was confused. “Abuela sized it for me” He smiled wider when Holly realised what he was talking about.
At his and Dev’s party, Abuela had Holly and Dev try on her engagement ring ‘for luck’. She had secretly been sizing their fingers. That’s what the look was that passed between them.
They’d been together for only for five days, and he’d known, even then. His family had known…
“Wait…your Mum and Dad…?”
“They know.” He nodded his head. “So do yours.”
“They do? How?”
“When they stayed at the party for a while, my Dad had drunkenly told your Mom that we’re going to get married. She agreed with him and was apparently aware of what Abuela was doing with the ring.”
It made perfect sense. Allowing Alex to stay with her, Oli hugging Alex and calling him ‘son’.
“I’m going to be Mrs Valencia.” She said with a big wide grin.
“Yes you are.“ He said in his low tone.
“Babe, you know what that does to me.” Holly groaned.
“I know.” He breathed into her ear, as he reached for another packet.
“Y voy a pasar el resto de nuestras vidas que le muestra lo que haces a mí.” He whispered as he slowly pushed into her again.
Rocking back and forth.
Increasing the pace, taking them up and over the edge…forever.
