Ashes to Ashes - The Treat - ch. 1

.

They still stood in the corridor between their rooms but the kiss they exchanged had turned distinctively hotter. There was love and desire that had lurked just under the surface and it now finally broke free. Their tongues fought for dominance and offered subordinance in turns, lips parted and closed the distance again, breath was exchanged and little sighs of pleasure. Their hands grabbed what they found and pulled at what they could reach. Eventually Barbara was shamelessly grinding herself against what she could feel growing in Tommy's pants. When their lips were apart she could not suppress a lustful moan.

"Oh, yes, my love!" he answered encouraging into her open mouth.

But his voice also was sounding so amused that Barbara suddenly turned hesitant. She realised what she was doing. Her body became stiffer and her kisses were not as demanding as they had been moments ago. Tommy felt that she was scared somehow so he stopped and broke the connection of their lips. Maybe he should give her more time. Maybe the growing desire in his trousers was still a bit too much for her. Maybe after all the waiting and hesitating she was not yet ready to overstep the last line.

"Maybe we shouldn't do this." In the instant he had said it he knew it sounded not the way he had intended it.

"Yes! We should!" Barbara exclaimed. Of course she wanted to do this with all her heart and with all her body too but embarrased by her own loud words she blushed. Doubts crept into her insecure mind. Maybe she wanted more than Tommy. She blushed deeper. "Maybe you're right." she murmured. She looked up shy but held his concerned gaze.

In his eyes he was able to see what her body already told him. There was desire and fear at the same time. The desire was what he wanted to keep but her fears had to be removed.

"What is it, Barbara?" he softly whispered moving his arms around her waist in a way she could easily back away again. Barbara placed her hands on his chest and watched his lips. Their lower bodies though still were pressed together.

"I'm..." she began and bit her lower lip. Before she went on Barbara breathed deeply. Still she only was able to croak. "...scared."

"Of what are you scared?" Tommy gave her an encouraging loving smile. He had to reassure her that what they were about to do, what they hopefully would continue soon, was the right thing and nothing to be scared of. He loved her. "Barbara, I love you!"

She nodded and kept thinking about an answer. It was not her concern that he might not love her. "Well... I'm scared of... you know... not being able to..." Her eyes now were anywhere but on his. "You know... Well... I'm not very experienced in such... matters."

"Barbara, please look at me." Tommy patiently waited until their eyes met again. "I love you."

"I love you too! But-" It broke out of her louder than intended. She shrugged her shoulders and let them fall. "But I don't know if I can match your expectations..."

Tommy smiled. With that he could cope. He had no doubts they would go on easily and everything would come along naturally. He knew that where she might hesitate he would lead on and vice versa. And he was completely sure that their bodies would match perfectly well.

"I am very sure that you'll know how to love me." Although her face still did not look convinced he gave her a reassuring kiss. "You've always known how to handle me."

They shared another kiss, then suddenly Barbara started to laugh onto his mouth.

Frowning in amused disbelief he held her away from his chest. "What's so funny now?"

Her face was beet red when she answered with a chuckling voice. "To be honest, Sir, handling wasn't exactly on my mind."

"Barbara Havers!" Tommy exclaimed. "You have a naughty choice of words."

With the knowledge that her concerns might not be wiped away but she would try to ignore them he had to grin. With both arms he tightly pulled her into his chest and turned to his bedroom door.

The kiss grew in intensity again. Finally Barbara let the dog's leash drop to the ground and together they stumbled into Tommy's room. He was glad he had not yet stripped the bed.

Their lips were everywhere they could reach. His nose softly nudging into her neck Tommy whispered onto her skin. "You know, being the gentleman that I am I would have asked if you would let me into your room but I wouldn't want to make love with you in a bed that smells of a dog so..." He placed a kiss onto the spot under her ear and with his heel he kicked the door closed.

Frizzles would not get into his bed.

The room was smaller than hers and although he had of course aired it the personal smell of Tommy still lingered. She had her eyes closed until now but then Barbara looked up. Tommy had moved away from her neck and was watching her. She smiled.

"Tommy, he wasn't sleeping in my bed."

He gave her a small kiss. "Oh? Wasn't he?"

"Of course not." She received another small kiss. He received a coy smile. "I was hoping for someone else to sleep there."

This time he gave her no answer. He just let his lips linger on hers and kissed her softly but desireful. Slowly he started to tug at the hem of her jumper but since she made no move to stop him he finally pulled it up and over her head completely. Only then he recognised that her hands already had opened his belt and the button and now were pulling his shirt from his trousers. He deepened the kiss once more.

Bit by bit they undressed each other and explored the exposed skin with fingertips and featherlight kisses.

"I've always imagined less." she whispered with her nose in the hair on his chest.

"Disappointed?" he murmured onto her shoulder.

"Not the slightest bit."

Her bra joined her slacks on the floor.

"Under all those oversized clothes I've never thought of you being so curvy." he croaked into her cleavage with his hands gently squeezing her still covered bottom cheeks.

"Mhm. I should reduce some-"

"Not one single ounce!" Growling he cut her short.

Barbara only was able to breathe on. She let her head fall into her nape. Tommy's lips had closed over the hardened bud of her left breast.

Eventually she pushed his trousers over his hips and gave a laugh when she saw his boxers. It was not the clearly visible shape of what was under the cloth that had hit her eyes.

"You're not the only one who's allowed to wear clothes with funny little figures." he almost pouted.

"But, seriously - Tigers?"

Tommy pulled her onto his groin. "You haven't yet learned what's und-"

Her lips crushed on his and she stopped him from saying it loud. "Gosh! Don't you dare say that, Tommy!" she breathlessly added after a while.

"No." he moaned and rolled his erection against her abdomen. "I'll let you feel it."

Step by step they had moved towards the bed leaving a short trace of clothes behind them. Now that her hands suddenly grabbed his upper arms he knew the hollows of her knees must have hit the wood. She had searched for balance. Quickly Tommy bent down and first pulled off his own socks then he lifted her feet and pulled hers off. His tongue was caressing the scar on her belly.

"Don't!" she whispered with panic. "It's ugly."

"It isn't." He placed a last kiss onto the hardened skin before he tickled a trace with the tip of his tongue across her body up to her throat. There he softly bit her carotid. She groaned when he nibbled at her earlobe. "It's a sign of braveness and stupidity and the reminder that life's precious."

Unintended touches told Barbara that he had gotten rid of his boxers too. She caught small strokes from him across her thigh and against her belly but then gentle hands lowered her onto his bed and helped her to get comfortable under constant kisses. The same gentle hands started to caress her entire body. Wherever they reached his lips soon followed. Barbara bent herself towards Tommy and replied with similar caresses and kisses. Using the entire width and length of his bed they snaked around each other hesitantly desireful and excitedly curious. When she eventually was lying on her back again and Tommy laid next to her touching her full side she finally felt him pulling down the last little piece of cloth between them.

He had to lift himself to completely remove it and when he was kneeling next to her she dared to look into his face. His eyes admired her body like no man had looked at her before. Inadvertently she spread her legs just a tad but it made him look up. When their eyes met there was hot desire steaming the air.

Lowering his chest on hers he kissed her deeply and climbed between her legs. His arms supported him. He was not putting all his weight on her so that their skin was only softly touching but he was not crushing Barbara. Only his lower body pressed into hers. She could feel the firmness of his hard member rubbing against her sweetly aching pink button. A warm feeling spread from her centre across her whole body.

Just a little move with his hips and he could feel the warm wetness welcoming him.

"Barbara..." he sighed. It almost sounded like a plea.

"Yes, Tommy!" she moaned. It was an invitation.

He watched her enchanted face when he entered her. He had to smile when the tip of his erection vanished in the heavenly hot tightness inside. He had been right - their bodies matched perfectly well. Easy and naturally and without any helping hands he was able to slide into her. He did it slowly and the expression on her face told him she was enjoying it as much as he was.

"Oh, Tommy!" With this sigh she arched into him when he was completely covered by her inner muscles. They already had started to constrict at irregular intervals.

But there still was so much to explore. There still were so many things unknown between them. They discovered what made the other sigh and moan, they learned which movement elicited impatient groans from the other one's lungs and they uncovered in the end which position gave them both the most pleasure. Although both were excited and had waited so long for this moment to come they made love only slowly for what seemed like an eternity until their pace finally sped up.

Panted words of encouragement and approval accompanied the rustling of the duvet under their bodies. The sounds of hard thrusts and clashing flesh then mingled with their gasps. Deep kisses with their bodies pressed skin on skin alternated with them arching against each other and their heads turned backwards so the throaty groans could leave the prisons of their chests.

"Tommy!" she cried out when she could not hold back any longer. Her inner muscles had taken on a life of their own and with his shaft buried deep inside her clenching walls he let go and followed her onto the peak of a shared orgasm.

"Barbara!" he deeply growled pumping a couple of times into her. She had not yet finished and neither had he.

A few more thrusts deeper and deeper into her made her cry out repeatedly.

"Yes! Oh, yes! Oh, god, yes!"

Tommy did not feel her fingernails digging into his shoulders. He was focussed only on the pleasure their joined bodies gave them. He new she enjoyed it as much as he was. Her words were clear on that. "Oh, Tommy! Yes!" she finally shouted into his ear when he was unable to restrict himself for longer. After one more heavy thrust into her womb his pumping suddenly had stopped and while Barbara only incoherently groaned his muscles pressed his full length into her. About three wonderful times she could feel him shudder himself into her. A pleasurable warmth flooded her insides. Barbara constantly moaned and writhed under him. She arched and ground herself upwards. He should never stop what he was doing.

"Oh, Barbara..." Tommy sighed one last time before he made sure that his exhausted body was not crushing her.

After a while he slid out of her and lowered himself at her side. Barbara's eyes were closed. She still panted. Her open lips presented the most beautiful smile. She looked as satisfied as he had not seen any woman look before. Without moving himself away from her side Tommy fished for the towel he knew he carelessly had thrown onto his bed earlier when they still had had the plans to drive home. Attentively he took care of the little mess he had made between her legs. Just for a second he realised that they had not spent a single thought on contraception but now it was too late anyway. The thought vanished as fast as it had appeared.

"Gosh, Tommy..." Barbara mumbled. "You've worn me out completely..."

"Mmmh, yes. I've intended to do that." Tommy whispered onto her shoulder before he laid his own head down.

It was Sunday. There was no need to get up again so soon. They were allowed to take a short nap, Tommy thought before exhaustion took over and he dozed off like Barbara already had.
