Ok so this is going to be how I imagined Shane and Claire's first time to be. . .It's going to be drawn out hopefully over several chapters. I'm only on the 6th book in the Morganville Vampires so I dunno if Shane and Claire actually do it in the books so i'm just going off guess work here =).
Shane and Claire and all the characters in this belong to the marvellous Rachel Caine, I just make 'em do what I want them to.
Seventeen.
That number had been taunting Claire for months. But no longer. On the morning of her seventeenth birthday Claire felt all the tension that had been created in the past months since she had moved to Glass House release and for once in her life she felt she could no longer be called a child.
She lay in bed just basking in that feeling until she heard a gentle knock on the door.
"Claire?"
The door inched open slightly to reveal a sleepy, delicious looking Shane. His clothes, a grey t-shirt and checked pyjama pants, were crumpled from sleep and his feet as usual were bear.
She smiled at him shyly from the bed, not bothering to get up.
"Hey," she said.
"Hey lazy, Happy Birthday," he smiled walking over to the bed and sitting down next to her. He lent down to kiss her gently, which then turned into kissing her ferociously as her hands clamped down in his hair.
"Mmm," she sighed when he pulled back what seemed like hours later, "Best birthday wake up ever."
He smiled cockily, "I am pretty awesome at it."
"Hmm," she half agreed, not wanting his ego any bigger.
"So what do you wanna do today?" he asked, lying down next to her. She rolled over onto her stomach so she could look at him. Claire knew without a doubt what she wanted to do, and it didn't involve them leaving the bed.
"I know that look," he said grinning, his eyes darkening slightly. She leaned forward so that their noses brushed together gently. His hands wound into her hair and tried to pull her closer to kiss her but she resisted and he groaned out a protest.
"Say please," she teased. He groaned again, something that sounded like her name.
"Please," he whispered and she locked her lips onto his. The both jumped and separated quickly when Eve crashed through the door seconds later with a cheery "Happy Birthday!".
"Oops! Sorry, didn't know you were in here Shane," She said, one dark eyebrow raised as she took in him and Claire on the bed.
"Yeah well try knocking next time," Shane said scowling.
"Whatever," she said, "Shane you need to get out."
"What?"
"Get out. I need to talk to Claire. Girl stuff." Shane raised his eyebrows and looked at Claire.
"Come find me when you're done," he said and kissed her slowly, a promise of more later.
"Ok ok, enough with the smoochies," Eve said, standing at the door with her arms crossed, her foot tapping impatiently.
"I'm going, I'm going," Shane said almost running out the door. Eve snapped the door shut behind him and came to sit on the bed with Claire, Indian style.
"It's time we had a chat," Eve said ominously.
"About what?" Claire said confused.
"The birds and the bees," Eve said smiling wickedly.
