Southern Romance (9 page)

      "Well I'm not riding a horse, I haven't rode in a long time.  I'm not doing it." 

     "Ok then, you can ride me." Jade couldn
’t help but to smile when she looked at him intotal shock and speechless.

     Jade brought Danger around the corner.  Jade was relieved that Danger had pulled through whatever had him sick. 

     "Come on times a ticking."  Sara walked up put one foot in the stirrup and hoisted herself up like she had been doing it for years. 

     "Haven't rode in a long time huh?"  Jade just smiled and hopped on behind her.

      “I said I haven’t rode in a long time, that doesn’t mean I don’t remember how.”

     He didn't mind.  He rathe
r enjoyed very much being close to her and had the funny yet pleasing feeling that was her intentions to begin with.  The breeze as they rode pushed her scent to him and it drove him wild.  More wild than any horse he had broken.  He wanted her badly.  But he wouldn't take her and make her his own until she trusted him to do so.  He would not force her to do something she wasn't ready to do.  And if that meant he had to suffer, then so be it. 

     They made their way around the fields in a hurried manner.
  She found herself staring at his arms as the sweat rolled down his rippling muscles.  Her mouth began to water at an alarming rate. 

     "Get it together Sara." 

     "What did you say?  I didn't hear ya." 

      “
Oh, I said what's the rush, this is beautiful."  Sara looked around trying to make him believe she was mesmerized at the view and not by him.

     "Look back behind you Sara."

     "Storm's coming."  Sara hated storms.  This was not the time for one to ruin their time together, so she tried to hide her nervousness and when Jade didn’t mention it she was satisfied she had.

     "It will be here soon, we have to get back now.”
  Jade put his right foot in the stirrup and stood at the side of the horse and told Sara to scoot back.  He hopped back on and took off after instructing her to hold on tight.   Jade rushed Danger harder than he had in a long time.  He wanted to slow down and take his chances with the weather because he didn't want her touch to end.  Her arms were tightly around his waist, he could feel her head resting against his back.

      They made it back just in time.  The wind had picked up and it was beginning to rain.  They managed to get Danger put up, but they weren't going to make it back to the house dry.  "Oh my God, I haven'
t run that hard, since I was a kid, running from you chasing me with a frog as I remember it right."  Jade started laughing. 

     "Are you cold?"

     "A little."

     "Go change and then come back."

     Sara didn't ask any questions just did as she was told.

Chapter Five

     When Sara returned, Jade was standing there in nothing but some shorts he had changed into.  He had built a fire, and there was movie starting on the TV.  A fresh bowel of popcorn and two Dr. Peppers were on the table next to it.                    

     "Aren't you cold?"

     "Yeah but this beautiful woman once told me I should work more without my shirt on."  Jade grinned and it sent Sara over the edge.  Her knees began to twitch.  It was a good thing she had stood in front of the couch because she couldn't bear her own weight and collapsed to the couch.  She grabbed the throw and covered up her legs.  Juggar hopped up on the couch and lay down across her legs.  She welcomed his body heat. 

     Jade came and sat right next to her.  You co
uldn't have squeezed a ruler in between them.  She felt his body next to hers and began to feel the heat.  The only thing that kept her from going insane with desire, was concentrating on petting Juggar and the movie starting.

     "What did you put in?" 
                

     "Twister.  I like to watch it when it's storming out.  Don't ask me why.  Just think that's the

best time."

     "I hate storms.  They didn't use to bother me but since,,,,, well I just don't like em anymore."

     "You know you don't have to worry about it now.  We have a basement."

     "That's not what I meant." 

     Jade knew exactly what she had meant but he didn't want to think about it.  Every time he would look at one of her scars or think about the bite mark he became angered.  His blood would almost boil.  He would think of ways to get even.  He thought of ways to kill him.  He didn't like it when he thought like that.  But he would kill him that is, if given the opportunity and not give it a second thought when it was over.

     The mo
vie was getting really good.  They were chasing their first twister.  The storm that was brewing outside was real.  Sara kept noticing Jade would shift and look out the glass doors but didn't really think much about it.  The thunder was getting really loud and lightning bolts were everywhere, the wind was whipping and howling around them. 

     The power began to flicker.  Jade felt her hand on his thigh with her nails digging into his muscle. 
             

     "It's just a storm; you don't have to be frightened her
e.  I promise I won't let anything happen to  you."

     "I know you wouldn't, it's just that....."   And the power was out.  They sat there for a few moments waiting for the lights to come back on but it was obvious it wasn't coming on anytime soon.

     "Your gonna have to let go of me.  I need to go get some candles."  Sara managed to force her hand away from his thigh.  While searching for the candles with only the light from his cell phone, he could still feel the pressure of her hand. 

    
What if I just say I couldn't find them, and then she will be with me, no distractions, just her and I.  No Jade, you can't do that to her.  If you’re gonna be with her, it has to be on her terms. 
He was beginning to feel for her in a way he hadn't expected. 

  
  Jade never thought that such a tragic event would put his heart back together piece by piece.  But Sara had done that.  He thought about, what if like before, she isn't responding to what her heart feels, only what her body feels.  Jade had felt heartache before.  He didn't want that to happen again.  And what if this is a mistake?  What is this going to do to her?  What if it didn't work out with her in  such a vulnerable state, a broken heart would surely crush her?  That was the last thing he wanted.

     Jade thought about it the entire time he was looking for the candles. 
That's it then, things have got to slow down. 
No more playing the game, win or lose, he didn't care.  He wouldn't allow the cause of her next breakdown to be him.  Jade found the candles and lit them then carried back to where he had left Sara.

     He sat the candles down on the coffee table in front of Sara, and then he took his seat in the recliner.  The thunder belted out around them and before he could blink Sara was in his l
ap, arms gripped around his neck.  At first he didn't say anything because the fact that she had ran to him like a child had his insides laughing.  But then he began fighting the urge to keep from doing more than just being her seat of safety, when the smell of her filled his nostrils.

     Sara never took her eyes off the sliding doors to the patio.  She kept watching as though she was expecting something to come through and take her away.  The thunder roared louder this time and when she jerked, her leg b
rushed across his groin.  This time causing a rush of blood to his loin.  He could no more control the erection that was racing up, than she could control her fear of storms. 

     He tried to think about anything that would take his mind off of it.  He t
hought about what chores he needed to do in the morning, he thought about Danger, but his mind wouldn't let go of her. 

     "That's it."  He swooped her up into his arms and walked to the table demanding her to grab a candle.  Without hesitation she did,
but when the light was close and she could see the look in his eyes she began to tremble.  That look could only mean one thing.  She had stirred his insides somehow and this time she had pushed him too far. 

     "Jade, I,,,, I,,,, I didn't mean to."  Ja
de didn't say anything as he strode through the house. 

     They reached a door and Sara was relieved and disappointed that he had not taken her straight to his bed only confusing her deeply.  He made his way down the stairs.  Her mind raced as she thoug
ht about what his intentions were and where was he taking her. 

     He made his way through a small hallway passing several doors and then finally the room opened up around her.  He sat her to her feet.  He still hadn't managed to gain control of himself
and he wasn't about to tempt himself any more than what she had already unknowingly done.

     "Here, now we are in the basement maybe you won't be so timid and wanna jump at every sound of thunder."

     "I'm sorry Jade.  I didn't mean to annoy you."

  
  "You weren't annoying me at all."  Jade looked at Sara and she could see the hunger in his eyes.  She knew exactly what she had done.  She didn't know if she wanted to taste his hunger or if the fear of doing so was too great. 

     "I didn't mean to do
that either."  Sara couldn't look him in the eyes, but she knew again she had caused him to stir.  She needed to do something to take his mind off of the reaction she had caused.  “Do you remember anything when we were little?  You used to irritate me all the time.  Do things that I hated you for at the time.  Do you remember?”  Sara watched as he smiled.  God she loved his smile.

      “
Yeah, I remember.”

      “
I think about all of those times and laugh now.  I know this is going to sound way off the wall and totally crazy but thank you for being such a hellion child.”

      “
No problem.  If it would help I’m sure I can find another frog out there and chase you around the house.”  He watched as her expression changed.  For a moment he couldn’t tell if he was really seeing her eyes and reading them right, or if it was just the candle light flickering against them.  No it wasn’t the light.

     Jade moved toward her watching her for any sign of hesitation.  Her gaze intently focused on him.  He watched as sh
e slowly licked her lips wet.  Almost seductively, but he could tell she didn’t mean it like it looked nor the response it caused to run through his body.  He wanted her right now.  And by golly it was time to end this attraction between them both.

    
Silence, complete and utter silence lingered in the air.  Neither of them no longer heard the wind screaming outside, the window rattling thunder, or the cracks of lightening that hit tree tops.  They only seen and felt the heat filling the air and their bodies.

     His gaze held hers.  Those damn sexy eyes of his made her pussy cry out to be touched, licked, kissed, caressed.  Her nipples, harder than she could ever remember it being.  Only an inch stood between them.  She could feel his breath as she wat
ched his lips. 

     He slanted his head and had intended to take her slow and gentle, but the roughness that Sara gave back told him exactly what she wanted and he thrust his tongue into her mouth.  Sliding his hand down her chest between her breast allo
wing his thumb to brush her nipple, then sliding his palm down her abdomen and then lower still.

     Her body reacted on its own.  She swore it did.  Hips arched against his hand when he touched her there.  Her pussy cried out, screamed, throbbed for his
attention.  She reached for his zipper and undid them quickly, before running her hands down his hips and sliding them down.  Abruptly her hands stopped when his cock sprang loose of his jeans and the size alone scared the living shit out of her. 

     He
could see it in her eyes.  He knew she was scared.  He kissed her neck and threw his head up in surprise when he felt her hand around the base of his cock.  Then messaging and working his balls.  The touch alone was going to make him come if he didn’t stop her.  She dropped to her knees and he knew if she so much as even touched his dick with those swollen sweet lips of hers, he would shoot his wad right into her mouth instantly.

     He knelt down in front of her.  She looked angry for a moment but when h
e lowered his head her eyes closed and she felt herself leaning back, wanting him to go lower.  She gasped for air and relief, when he slid her bottoms and panties from her body kissing down her legs and back up, then to her center.  Teasing and nipping. She hunched toward him.  He was driving her fucking crazy.

      “
So sweet.  Your pussy juice taste so sweet.  I want to drink and savor the taste.”  He licked just then between her fold, nipping the swollen clit that begged for his attention with his tongue.  The touch alone made her scream out.

      “
Did you feel that Sara?  How your body responds to my tongue.  You were meant to be with me Sara.  All mine.  You’re going to belong to me when we are done.  You’re never gonna want another ever again.”  His mouth dipped down and sucked the swollen mound into his mouth.  Again she screamed out, covering her mouth with her hands, muffling her cry.  “Don’t do that baby, let me hear what I do to you while I suck your hot pussy.  Let me hear you.”

     He smiled
as she slowly slid her hands away.  He continued to work her clit until he could feel the muscles of her thighs, begin twitching, and jerking.  

     She felt the emotions swirl through her body.  “
Come for me now baby.  Give me that.  Give it to yourself.  Come for me.”  She was fighting the urge.  She wanted his touch to last forever.  It was too late.  She closed her legs around his head as her body shook, trembled, and then slowly relaxed.  Her breathing was heavy.  “I told you baby.  You’ll want no other.”  She opened her eyes to look at him.

      “
Take me now Jade.  Make me come again.  Please, I’m begging you.” 

     “
We have all night, slow and easy.  I’m not going anywhere and neither are you.  We won’t rush this tonight.”  His mouth kissed her lips and she could taste the sweetness he had tasted.  It made her burn for more.  The taste of herself on her lips made her want to taste him.  “I want you Jade.  Let me taste you.”

       “
Not yet baby.  It’s too soon.”

       “
Please.  Please.  I need to.”  She was begging for him in her mouth.  Just the thought of him coming on that hot tongue of hers was almost enough to make him cave and give it to her.  But he couldn’t.  Tonight she would learn what a man’s hands were meant to feel like. 

       He
slid his finger into her tiny entrance and then paused.  He felt it.  “Sara are you sure you want this?  Tell me no and it stops right here, no questions asked.”

      “
Jade, I swear to God if you stop I will kill you tonight when you sleep.  Don’t you dare fucking stop.”  He couldn’t help but to smile.  He had never heard her talk like that before.  With one quick movement she thrust her hips down sending his finger deep inside her.  It was a bittersweet burn.  She stilled only momentarily.   When she started moving again against his finger, he slowly pulled back and then eased back in. 

        “
Oh God Jade, Fuck me.  Please.”

        “
Nice and easy Sara.”

        “
NO, I want it fucking fast and hard.  Do it now or so help me God Jade.”

       He let out
a chuckle and she jerked her head up staring at him.  “Glad this is so fucking amusing to you asshole.”  His smile got bigger as he made her clear the words from her mind with the thrust on only his finger.  He worked in and out repeatedly until working a second finger in. 

        “
Please I want you now.  Please Jade.  I can’t stand it your killing me Jade.”
