Charloft Summer Drabbles - Boat
OOC: his_firstborn used in limited form with the kind indulgence and trust of his creator and protective 'mum'. This started as a drabble but is over that word count, so, meh, not posting it in the comm. Timeline is post Lisa.
The yacht was dancing across the still ocean, and the family on board was recovering from several years of loss, death, betrayals and war with Watchers.
Cody carried her Sweet Berry Lime tea, heavily dosed with vodka, up to sunbathe on the front deck. Hsu was down below, working with Orestes. She wore her sexiest, skimpiest bikini, and for some reason, it did little to divert his attention from business.
“Hey, careful you don’t drop that.” She looked up to see Daniel trying to get past her on the narrow deck. His sunshine yellow shirt was open to show the ripped muscles of his tan chest. The ship hit a small wave and she took one hand from the glass to put on his chest, so she wouldn’t fall. His voice was soft and teasing. “How many have you had, Cody?”
Her hand stayed on his chest, feeling his heart beat while cold drops of water from her glass slid down the tanned, smooth flesh. She just stared as that one drop of water trailed down, lower, past his navel, and her eyes stated down there, afraid to look into his golden hazel eyes, because he might see something that she never knew was there, before this trip.
Was it just an illusion? Was it because she had not been in Hsu’s bed in months? Was it loneliness after Jamie’s death? Hormones? Large amounts of alcohol and coke that she had been using? Blood lust from a recent raid on a Guild base, that they had all fought in? Jealousy over Hsu’s most recent dalliance? It couldn’t be real sexual attraction, much less emotional! She was just lonely and needing to get laid, fully laid, laid with the kind of hardcore brutality that Hsu had not indulged her with for a long time. That’s all it was.
Cody forced herself to look up into Daniel’s eyes, and at the same time, her breath escaped in a soft gasp. She hadn’t even realized that she had been holding her breath. Something in his expression reminded her of his father, when he was enjoying the upper hand. She somehow felt naked, and she had never really felt that with Danny.
Unseen to them Cassandra was watching. Cody Jean looked exquisite in her dark bronze bikini, trimmed in gold. It highlighted all of the best aspects of her toned body, particularly her pert breasts and the curvature of her arse. The color brought out the flecks and tones in her eyes. Daniel was similarly beautiful in his face and form, and the pair could be a golden couple basking in the summer heat…except they were not. Cody belonged to Hsu, and her son had been far too preoccupied with other interests to pay any attention to his protégé, or to see the potentially disastrous feelings growing while his eyes had been turned away.
“Daniel, darling, could you help me with something in my stateroom, please?” Cassandra called out, trying to jolt Cody back to reality.
And jolt her, it did, because Cody started, blinked and pulled her hand back, hurrying off to the sun deck, saying nothing to the boy she had raised since he was seven. She felt dirty for the arousal that he inspired in her, and for the fantasies that she would have as she dozed on the chaise, soaking up the Mediterranian sun, and later, alone in her bed. As she laid on the chair, Cody drank a third of her intoxicating tea, before resting her eyes. She wished that Hsu was available to ease this ache in her belly, and farther below, so she didn’t have the chance to close her eyes and imagine Daniel’s hands, lips and body all over hers.
Damn it all to HELL! She would need to go into their next port stop and find a playmate for some dirty distraction, or she would be way too tempted by the shiny and forbidden pretty diversions dangled in front of her. If she couldn’t get Hsu’s attentions, and Daniel was off limits, then she better find something to cool her heated lust.
