It's All Relative(130)
“Kai…” she whispered, desire clear in her voice. “What are you going to do now?”
A list of all the things he could do—to her—was shuffling through his head, but he was pretty sure that wasn’t what she’d meant. His hand slipped down her chest anyway, ducking under the covers and aiming for the sweet spot that he hoped was completely saturated for him. His fingers were delightfully rewarded with a hot wetness as he slid them between her folds. She arched her back and moaned his name as his lips traveled up to her ear.
“My plans haven’t changed. I’m still going to go home, Jessie.”
She looked over at him, her breath fast as her body writhed under his fingers sliding against her. “What?” she managed to get out, her eyes rolling back in her head. “But…”
Hiding a grin, Kai encouraged her to lie back on the sheets. She did so, but a frown was firmly on her face as she struggled to contain her rising passion. His searching fingers twisted to probe inside her, plunging deep while his thumb circled the sensitive spot on the outside. He’d discovered early on that she really liked that. She gasped and clutched his shoulders, her frown forgotten.
Almost jealous of his hand, he rubbed his hard member against her thigh. In her ear, he panted, “I need to talk to them face to face. I just can’t do it over the phone.” She moaned, moving her hips in a determined rhythm with his hand. Dropping his head to her shoulder, Kai groaned into her skin, “I was hoping you would go with me, help me through this, like you always help me.”
She moaned yes, and he felt his stomach clench like he was going to release all over her, just from the sound of her voice. Pushing his fingers deeper into her, he frantically kissed her neck. “God, I don’t want to be apart, Jessie. Now that we’re together, I don’t want to ever be apart. Come with me. Please, say you’ll come with me.”
Clutching his head to her, she arched her back as she clenched around his fingers. “Yes, I’ll come…yes, God, yes, I’ll come.” She expressed her desire to go with him several more times and Kai smiled into her skin.
He wasn’t sure if she was actually agreeing to come home with him, or if she was even aware of what he’d been asking her, but he didn’t mind. Kai loved satisfying her, and would do it over and over again if he could. Besides, he was certain she would say yes when he asked her again during a less…provocative time. He was positive there was no way she would ever turn down a trip to paradise.
Jessie moaned his name over and over as she came down off of her high. Kai pictured her glorious, writhing body, scantily covered by the tiny pieces of a bikini, an outfit she’d once told him she rocked. He pictured her smiling at him in the ocean, imagined the sun beating against her skin, the wind billowing in her hair, and the water splashing up her thighs. He grinned as he watched the ecstasy on her face. The small smile on her open mouth as her breath started to recede, her eyes closed as she relished the pleasure he’d just given her. She was so beautiful, and she was all his. And Kai suddenly couldn’t wait to go home.
The early morning sky was a clear, perfect shade of blue near the horizon. As it lifted from the earth, the blue shifted to lavender and then a rosy shade of pale pink. It was almost like the world was blushing as it looked over the two young lovers lying beneath it. Jessie smiled as she stared out her bedroom window. Kai rustled beside her, but he was still deep in sleep. Jessie knew from experience that unless she woke him up, he’d sleep a bit longer. He’d been a fixture in her bed for the past couple of days, and she was getting to know his patterns. And if she really needed him awake for any reason, she knew the best way to get him there. Kai really liked being woken up with her lips securely wrapped around him.
She’d practiced that the other night, when she’d woken up early in the morning with an ache that needed to be satisfied. Jessie blamed it on the erotic dream she’d been having, but truly, she thought it was more likely the novelty of being able to freely have the man she never thought she’d get. Well, that and Kai was the most unbelievable lover she’d ever had. That didn’t hurt either.
Not able to face his real father again yet, Kai had taken some time off work. Not wanting to waste any time together, Jessie had followed suit, feigning her sudden illness for a little while longer. Her roommates were also keeping their distance, both of them staying away from the house after they got off work, only venturing home late in the evening, when they probably figured the two love birds were done for a while. Jessie felt a little guilty about that…but not really. She and Kai had endured some pretty hard times. They were reveling in the fact that as far as their relationship was concerned, the hard times were over.
With a content sigh, Jessie reached a hand out to touch the tattoo on his back. Twirling her fingers to mimic the swirls, she thought about the hard times yet to come. Kai needed to deal with his real father, needed to speak with his parents, and they both needed to talk with their grandmother. It seemed a little unfair that most of the emotional moments coming up were Kai’s, not hers. If she could, she would take his pain for him, spare him from feeling it. But life didn’t work that way, so all she could do was be there for him. And she intended to. She’d be there every step of the way.
Smiling, Jessie thought of Kai asking her to go to Hawaii with him. Once he’d asked her again during a quiet time, and she’d really understood what he was saying, a flutter of excitement had tickled her stomach. True, it was going to be a hard trip for Kai, and Jessie planned on supporting him in every way that she could, but putting the emotional hardships aside for a moment, she was finally going to paradise. She couldn’t wait.
