Chapter 3: And You Understand Now
Two glasses of wine and almost a whole pizza between them later, they sat close together on the couch. She had already undone several of his buttons on his shirt. Stating simply that he needed to live a little and not be so put together all the time. Her fingertips then teased the smooth, bare skin she had exposed underneath.
He tried desperately to concentrate on the talking fish on the screen. Finding Nemo is what she had called it. He felt his heart as it hammered in his chest. His head turned; their eyes locked. "You're not watching the movie."
She scooted closer as her hand slipped beneath his dress shirt; nails raked against his nipple. She bit her lip slightly as she felt it peak under her touch. "Thank you, Captain Obvious."
Her head moved forward, lips pressing against his neck. "Why are you still watching the movie?" Her lips peppered tiny kisses along his throat before her mouth found his ear. "Pretty sure there's something more productive that needs doing."
His eyes were closed as he enjoyed the attention she was paying him. His body responded to her. He would have had to have been dead for it not to have. His lips parted. "Is that so, Sergeant?" His head shifted then so they were looking at one another. "Do tell."
"How about I show you instead?" She shifted so that her body straddled his. She felt a thrill of adrenaline as his hands immediately came down to her hips as he thrust upwards to show her exactly what she was doing to him. Her eyes slammed shut as she let a soft moan fall from her lips. Her head fell forward. She opened her eyes as her forehead touched his.
He stared into her beautiful brown eyes. "Are you sure this is what you want?" He knew she had been dealing with a lot; so many changes in her life since Noah came into her heart and home. He gripped her hips tightly, keeping her in place as not to rush this. They had time for all of this, and he didn't want her to regret a single moment of their time together.
She nodded slowly. Her mouth found his once again, kissing him until she was breathless above him. One hand was on his shoulder and the other was grasping at his hair. "Please?" she breathed before kissing him again.
His hands moved slowly before he gripped the hem of her tank top in his trembling fingers. He eased it upward, pushing it up and over her toned abdomen then her breasts. He whispered, "Arms up, Liv?" When she obeyed him, he rid her completely of the tank top. He held it tightly in his grasp, pressing it against her back as he leaned forward to press a soft kiss to the swell of her breast then he switched and did the same to the other.
Her body trembled with each kiss of her scarred skin. She'd only been with Brian since Lewis' attack. While Brian had been patient with her, this was different. Rafael had been the only person in her life that hadn't treated her like she was broken. This was no different. She wanted every moment with him to last forever. She wanted to etch every moment into her memory to recall in the moments when he couldn’t be with her.
She slowly extricated herself from his arms and touches and stood up. She could see the confusion in his eyes, but she shook her head and reached for his hands to pull him up with her. She pressed her chest to his, wrapping her arms around his neck as they kissed once more. "I think we'll be more comfortable in the bedroom." She then slowly stepped away, reaching for his hand to urge him to follow her.
He would follow her anywhere; something he'd discovered a while ago, but it struck him in that moment that this was the true test of that. He held her hand tightly in his as she led him into her bedroom. The lamp by the bed illuminated the bed, and he was grateful when she didn't reach to shut it off.
They stood now by the edge of the bed. Her back was to him so he moved closer so he could wrap her in a gentle embrace. When her hand came up and wrapped around his head and threaded her fingers through his hair, he closed his eyes before he kissed her shoulder. He let out a soft sigh. "We can go as slow and as far as you want, Olivia. There's no need to rush anything. I promise."
She turned slowly, eyes soft and so full of emotion. Her fingers slipped up to the first button that she'd left buttoned and let the button pop loose before moving lower and lower until they were all undone. She moved her hands up his stomach and then his chest and to his shoulders where she gently pushed the fabric from his arms to fall to the floor. "I want it all with you." Her mouth fell onto his smooth chest, tongue tracing a path to his nipple where she teased it gently before she reached to undo his pants and let them fall to the floor with his shirt.
He watched her, holding his breath the entire time. His body was almost bare to her. He sat on the edge of the bed, pulling her gently between his parted legs and let his fingers gently ease the waistband of her pale pink pajama bottoms away from her body to slowly push it down over her hips and let them join his discarded shirt and pants on the floor. He leaned forward, pressing a soft kiss to stomach. He smiled against her skin. "Good. Because I want it all with you, Liv."
She stood looking down at him. They were only in their underwear, and she'd never felt more sexy and wanted than she did when she looked into his eyes. They truly were the window to his soul. Her hands moved over his shoulders and up into his hair where she gently massaged whatever was within her reach.
His hands moved up her outer thighs, nails digging in here and there at the thought of what was to come. He slowly eased her down to straddle his body, keeping a firm grip as to not let her fall. Their mouths met again and again in gently, chaste kisses that tasted of more to come. He whispered, "You're in complete control here. Don't ever forget that."
