Jake didn’t intentionally handle the situation with malice but now that he thought about it, his sub-conscious might have helped him in some of his decision making.
“That was not my intention. But it does suck doesn’t it? When you care about someone and they won’t talk to you. Now you know how I felt all last week.”
Lexi turned around and paced the room. When he looked down at her perfect, round ass he confirmed that in fact she was wearing a thong. Jake couldn’t help but stare at her tight little bubble butt. God, even though he was furious with her, he wanted her so bad.
“I can’t believe you.” She let her tears flow now. “I was genuinely scared, Jake. I was scared I wouldn’t be able to talk to you again and you decide not to talk to me because of what happened last week?”
“How do you think I felt all last week? Worrying about you and what was going on, wondering if you were going to break up with me because you wouldn’t let me close enough to help.”
“So you go and punish me?”
“No! That wasn’t intentional.” They were both screaming at each other, most likely putting on a good show for her neighbors.
“Sure it wasn’t Jake.” She threw her hands up in anger.
“And like yours wasn’t intentional. You’re the whole reason I got hit, because I was worried about you.”
She charged after him. “How dare you blame that on me?” She was still crying but screaming at him the same time. He tried not to focus on how the swell of her breasts jiggled ever so slightly when she yelled at him.
“Well, it’s the truth. Let’s just get it all out in the open Lexi, are you cheating on me?”
“No!”
“Then what is it?!” He yelled back.
“My dad beat the shit out of my mom and I was housing her last week, I didn’t want you to have to get involved you ass!”
Devastation wrapped around Jake’s heart as Lexi went into the bathroom and slammed the door shut. Jake felt all the wind in his chest get knocked out of his lungs, leaving him breathless. He was a gigantic ass, but what he didn’t understand was why she didn’t just tell him? He would have helped her through it. That’s what being in a relationship was about, being there for each other and taking care of each other when they needed it the most.
While she was in the bathroom, he ran his hand through his hair and paced her room trying to figure out how to handle the situation before him. He heard her blow her nose and wished he could just go in there and pull her into a hug. He stared at the picture he first saw of her and her parents that was displayed on her desk. They all looked so happy in the picture, who knew behind those smiles was a world of pain and despair. Jake’s heart ripped in two for Lexi. He didn’t have his parents anymore in his life but when they were alive his dad treated his mom like a queen and his dad would always tell Jake that he needed to treat his woman the same way when he was older.
His dad was right. Lexi was his woman, the one he wanted to be with, the one he loved. The last statement hit him like a ton of bricks. He loved her. He fucking loved her more than anything. He needed to take his father’s advice and treat Lexi like she deserved to be treated, like a queen.
He went to the bathroom door and knocked on it. She didn’t answer so he twisted the knob, praying she didn’t lock him out before he got the chance to enter the small space. Thankfully she didn’t. He pushed the door open and found her sitting on the counter with her head in her hands. He pushed her legs open and wrapped them around his waist. He tilted her chin up and wiped away her tears that were streaking down her face with his thumbs. He kissed her forehead and pulled her in for a hug.
“I’m so sorry baby, about everything. I’m so damn sorry.”
She cried into his chest and squeezed him tight. “I’m sorry too. I should have told you about my mom but I was so ashamed.”
“I don’t want you to think you can’t tell me things. I’m here for you no matter what.”
He bent down and kissed her lips, they tasted like Lexi with a hint of salt from her tears. She wrapped her arms around his neck and deepened their kiss right before she said, “Take me to bed, Jake.”
He stepped back and looked at her. “What?”
“Take me to bed, Jake.” She hopped off the counter, grabbed his hand and walked him toward her bed. She put her hands under his shirt, grabbed the hem and lifted it over his head, exposing his bare chest that she explored with her dainty hands. Her gentle touches were making his senses run wild. He felt himself growing hard at a rapid pace in his southern region from every stroke and caress she played against his body. She took notice of his growth and pulled his pants and socks off, leaving him only in his boxer briefs covering up his very noticeable erection.
“I’ve missed you,” she whispered as she kissed her way up his chest.
“I’ve missed you so much, baby.”
He lifted her up on the bed and settled between her legs, taking her lips with his. She met each stroke with his and he felt his entire body go numb as she moved her hands in tiny circles down his chest as they kissed. He didn’t know if she realized what she did to him with her hands but she drove him crazy. He placed his hands on her waist, relishing in the feel of her bare skin. She moaned into his mouth making him grow harder.
He stopped what he was doing and leaned his head against hers. “Shit, I don’t have protection with me.”
“I thought ahead.” She said with a wink and then leaned back on the bed, inviting him on top of her. Thanking the Lord for his well-prepared girlfriend, he straddled her little body and rested his hand on her ribcage.
“You look so fucking gorgeous, babe”
She brought his head back down and started kissing him at an alarming rate. He slid his hand to the front of her bra and started undoing the four clasps that held the frilly fabric together. With every pop of the clasp he felt himself get even harder. On the last one he looked down as he watched her bare, tanned breasts spill out from the top.
He gulped. “Do you tan naked?”
She smirked at him and that was all the evidence he needed. What a vixen! He took one of her breasts in his hand and felt the weight she had to offer. He brought his head down to her breast and took her nipple in with his lips. Lexi threw her head back on the bed and moaned as he circled her nipple with his tongue, turning it into a hard little peak. He went to the other breast and conducted the same routine, causing more moans to fly from Lexi’s mouth.
“Jake, that feels so good.”
Jake slid the bra completely off Lexi and tossed it to the ground. He kissed his way down to her panties and shucked those was well, revealing a perfectly waxed area. God, she was full of surprises. He moved his way back up to her lips and whispered to her.
“You are so damn beautiful.”
Lexi moved her hands down to the waist of his boxer briefs and started to pull them down. Jake allowed her to push them down and he helped her take them fully off when she couldn’t reach them anymore. They both stared at each other for a second before Jake climbed on top of her again, placing his forearms on either side of her head as he stroked her hair. He gently brought his head down and kissed her ever so gently. He wanted to savor this moment, the moment where they felt flesh on flesh for the first time. He was so lucky to have her, to be able to love her. He wasn’t ever going to forget this moment for as long as he lived.
She kissed him back being just as gentle as he was. The light touches, caresses and kisses drove him to the edge. He spread her legs and quickly remembered he needed a condom.
She knew what he needed and said hastily, “Nightstand.”
Jake reached in the drawer, ripped the condom open and rolled it on. She just stared at him, licking her lips. He spread her legs again, grabbed her hands and linked them with his over her head. He stared her in the eyes as he entered her. He watched as her eyes widened from his size and her little mouth formed an “O” shape.
“Am I hurting you?” He asked.
She shook her head no and moved her hips to encourage him to go deeper. Once he was fully inside her, he started rocking back and forth, forcing Lexi to throw her head back in pleasure.
“Oh God, Jake. Yes.”
Jake never thought Lexi would be much of a communicator in bed but he liked it. He also liked how even though she had a strong personality and did things a lot of the time her way, she let him have control in bed.
He bent his head down and started kissing her deeper than before. He slid his tongue in her mouth and she met him with hers. They tangled themselves up as Jake continued to thrust. He felt the pressure in his body start to build up with every thrust of his hips and thrust of his tongue. All his senses were on fire and he didn’t know how much more he would be able to hold on.
Jake left Lexi’s lips and headed down her neck trailing his touch with kisses while still holding her hands above her head. He found his way to her plump breasts and sucked in one of her nipples. At that moment Lexi cried out and her inner walls constricted around him. She screamed out in pleasure and Jake followed right after her. His whole body went numb as he released himself in to the woman of his dreams.
Lexi continued to move her hips around, sucking out every last pleasure point, reveling in the pleasure. He felt like he was floating on a cloud. Never in his life had sex ever been so powerful. Yes, it felt good but sex with Lexi was on a whole new and different level. He had the biggest orgasm of his life and it was all because of his brilliant little blue eyed blonde.
He pulled himself out of her, grabbed a tissue from her night stand to clean up and then pulled her in close to him, wrapping his limbs around her. He buried his face in her hair and kissed her head.
“Mmm…” She said while wiggling to get closer to him, arousing him once again and so quickly too.
“I love you, Lexi.”
His confession caused her to separate herself from their joining and turn around to face him. One of his hands was on her bare hip and the other was propping his head up.
“What did you say?” She said with shock. Normally he would have thought he would be terrified at this moment, the moment he confessed his love for a woman for the first time, but he wasn’t. He didn’t care if she didn’t say the same three little words back. He loved her and he wanted her to know.
“I said I love you, more than anything, babe.”
Lexi put her hand on Jake’s cheek and stroked his face. She kissed him lightly on the lips. “I love you too, Jake.”
Jake pulled her in at the hip so they were face to face with an inch separating them from touching. He stroked her hair as she snuggled into his arm.
“Best thing I’ve heard in a long time.” He said. “I’m sorry about everything.”
“Me too but let’s forget about it and enjoy this moment.”
Jake kissed her nose and then her mouth which turned into more frantic kisses and more touching. As Jake found his way inside her core again he thought to himself how life couldn’t be any better than this. As long as he had Lexi by his side he could do anything.
***
Lexi turned over in bed to snuggle up closer to Jake but found nothing but sheets and blankets. Disappointment washed through her body as she opened her eyes and didn’t see Jake lying next to her. Last night she turned off her alarm so she could sleep in and spend more time with Jake but it was pointless since he wasn’t in bed with her. She skipped her morning class, which she had never done before but Jake was nowhere to be found.
Panic instantly hit her. They finally had sex for the first time last night and now he was gone in the morning. Did he get what he wanted and bolt? She shook her head no, not possible. He told her he loved her last night. Jake Taylor loved her. She still felt like she was floating on a cloud from hearing those words come from his mouth. He completely caught her off guard with his declaration but it was one of the best things she had heard in a while. It felt great to be loved, to be wanted by another person, to be cared for.
Lexi sat up and stretched as the sheets fell off her body, exposing her bare breasts. She flushed thinking about all the ways Jake pleasured her last night by just touching her breasts. He declared in the heat of the moment that her breasts were by far the most amazing ones he had ever seen. Lexi laughed to herself thinking about how heavy is voice sounded when he said it.
She hopped out of bed and grabbed a long shirt to slip over her head. When she stuck her arms through the sleeves she heard a huge crash in the kitchen. She quickly left her bedroom and looked over the kitchen bar to see Jake holding a bunch of pots and pans. He was only wearing his sweats leaving his chest bare and available to stare at. She sighed at the sight and went over to help him.
“What are you doing?” She helped him with the pots and shoved them back in the drawer. He had one pan in his hand and placed it on the stove.
“I’m making you breakfast, short stack.” He leaned over and gave her a quick peck on the lips. “How do you like your eggs?”
She gave him a skeptical look. “You know how to cook?” She crossed her arms over her chest.
“I know how to cook eggs. Place your order babe or you’re getting what I serve up.”
She leaned in and gave his butt a squeeze. “Surprise me big guy.”
He playfully squealed like a girl when she squeezed his butt and swatted at her hand. “If you don’t mind, Ma’am, no playing around with the help.”
“Hey, if you’re my help, I can do whatever I want with you.” She leaned in and placed her hands on his chest.
He wrapped his arms around her bringing her in closer. “Is that right? Well then do with me what you will.”
She pulled him down so she could plant her lips on his. She was almost touching his mouth with hers when she said, “Omelet with veggies and cheese.”
She broke their embrace and sauntered over to the counter where she hoisted herself up and sat down. She crossed her legs and planted her hands behind her so he got a great view of her shirt against her breasts. He walked over to her with hunger in his eyes and not the kind of hunger that could be fixed by a veggie omelet. She stopped him with her foot on his chest before he could get too close.
“What do you think you’re doing?”
He groaned. “Babe, you can’t sit like that and expect me to back off.”
“Check your libido at the door mister, you have breakfast to make.”
He shook his head. “You’re such a cock tease. You know that?”
She just smiled at him and watched him slump his shoulders while he formed a pouty lip. He grabbed the eggs that were on the counter and started whipping them. She was mesmerized by the way his forearm muscles rippled with each swish of the fork against the eggs.
“Cheer up whipping boy, if you do a good job, I might reward you after breakfast.”
He perked up at the sound of her mentioning a reward. “You know I live for your rewards.”
Lexi watched Jake move around her kitchen as if it was home to him. She had a great view of his backside as he made her an omelet. She observed how his back muscles flexed when he was chopping up peppers sending her to distract herself because she was getting all hot and bothered.
Sex had never been something she needed, probably because she was never with someone like Jake. With Jake, after finally giving herself over to him, it was all she wanted. They fooled around all night in bed, sleeping for a little then waking each other up wanting more. Lexi was sore from her head to her toes but in a good way.
When they sat down at the table to eat their breakfast, Lexi couldn’t help but think about all the women Jake had been with and how she had only been with one other guy. She wondered if Jake was so good at what he did because he had so much experience. Was she his best? Or was she just subpar?
“Is your omelet not good?” Jake asked, interrupting her thoughts.
She noticed she was just pushing it around on her plate and not eating it. She took a big bite and shook her head. ”No, it’s great. Thank you.
”
Jake took his finger and pressed it between her eyes to smooth out her frown. “Then what has you all worried.”
She blew out a breath. “Just being a girl.”
“Tell me. Remember we’re going to be open with each other. That’s what being in a relationship is all about, being there for each other?”
Jake was right, they had a long conversation last night after they tired from sex. They talked about Lexi’s mom and dad and what Lexi could do to help them. She told him how it all started when she was in high school and how her dad didn’t start abusing her mom until she left for college, which relieved him a little. Jake was nervous Lexi’s dad struck her when she was still living at home, but that was never the case. She wondered if her dad was always abusive toward her mom but just never took notice.
Lexi and Jake talked until they fell asleep. It felt good to get everything off her chest and out in the open. Jake couldn’t have been more understanding about everything she revealed to him. He just held her in his warm embrace while she let everything out. If she didn’t already love him, she would have fallen in love with him last night.
She looked up at Jake and made a hesitant smile. “I was just wondering about, you know how I was.”
“How you were?” He asked with a cute quizzical look that made her want to jump on his lap and devour him.
“You know…in bed.”
Jake threw his head back and laughed out loud causing Lexi to turn a dangerous shade of red. She swatted his chest. “It’s not funny. I’m not as experienced as most girls you’ve been with. I’m self-conscious about it.”
“Babe, you’re serious?”
“Yes.” She wanted to stomp her foot like a child.
He grabbed her hand and kissed the back of it. “You are by far the best I’ve ever had.”
She lifted an eyebrow at him. “I find that hard to believe. I have seen the women you’ve been with. Marissa on the soccer team, she’s got to have some tricks up her sleeve. And what about Darci on the swim team, she looks flexible. And then there’s…”
