"Dinner at mine…Friday night?... We can cuddle up and watch a movie?"
Henry's words had been playing on a loop in Elizabeth's head all week. They had been dating for a little under 5 months and they still had that new relationship glow going on. Everything was exciting.. Every kiss, every touch and the more time they spent together, the deeper they seemed to be falling. Elizabeth had been running scenarios through her mind since he'd suggested spending the evening alone at his apartment…. They could stuff themselves with Chinese food, put on a romantic film to set the mood and if she played her cards just right, she could seduce him. Things had been edging closer to them taking that next step, pushing the boundaries just that little bit more each time they found themselves in an intimate situation… But it hadn't quite happened… yet!
She had spent all afternoon getting herself ready… Choosing just the right outfit, coupled with the sexiest underwear she owned which she knew would get Henry's pulse racing…..She felt nervous yet incredibly excited and could barely contain it. She was ready to be with him in every way possible. For the first time since she'd lost her parents, she felt like she belonged… with Henry… And it was a feeling she never wanted to end.
She checked her make-up one last time, grabbed her car keys and the bottle of wine she'd bought to help them both relax a little and headed off to Henry's for what she hoped would be the most romantic evening of her life so far!
Henry had put a lot of thought into how he wanted the evening to go. They had both been ridiculously busy, studying hard for midterms and putting in long hours at the library which meant they hadn't been able to spend as much time together as either of them would have liked. He saw a great opportunity to show her just how much she meant to him…How much he valued their relationship…He was pulling out all the stops to make her feel special….. Because she really was… In every way.
He had decided against take-away, instead opting to cook Elizabeth's favourite pasta dish. He was pretty sure he could impress her with his culinary skills and if the main course didn't have the desired effect, the dessert certainly would…. She definitely wouldn't be able to resist his chocolate cake!
The wine was open and breathing…. Microwave popcorn ready and waiting… Candles were strategically placed around the small apartment to create the right ambiance and he had even vacuumed under the couch. He wasn't quite sure why he'd found that necessary…. But it seemed like the right thing to do!
When he heard the gentle knock at the door, his heart leapt into his throat momentarily. He wanted everything to be as perfect for Elizabeth as she was to him. And he had picked just the right movie to ensure the evening would go exactly as planned.
"Wow…. You look stunning! Not that you don't always, because you do… of course… But tonight you just look breathtaking…. Well, just slightly more breathtaking than you usually do… Because you always look incredible…. And my god I'm just rambling now… I'm sorry." Henry took a deep breath and smiled at Elizabeth "Hi." He took hold of her hand and placed a gentle kiss against her lips as he led her into the apartment and shut the door behind her.
"Something smells delicious….. Are you cooking for me Henry?" Her wide grin was a good indication that she was already impressed.
"I am…. I thought you may enjoy pasta slightly more than greasy Chinese food…. I hope that's ok?"
"It's perfect…. I'm starving!" They had managed to gravitate towards each other and were now mere inches apart…. "Thank you for inviting me over." Her arms wrapped around his neck as she pulled him down for a rather passionate kiss. Having barely seen each other for weeks, they had some catching up to do.
"I've missed you." Henry smiled against her lips as they broke apart "And I'm very glad you're here right now."
Dinner was relaxed and easy. Elizabeth was hugely impressed with Henry's cooking skills and even more so with dessert….She was a real sucker for cake of any kind.. But chocolate cake was a particular favourite.. They had polished off one bottle of wine and had started on the second as they settled on the couch to watch the movie.
"I've been looking forward to this all week. What are we watching Henry? Something nice and romantic I hope?" She draped his arm around her shoulder and snuggled in closer….. Things were going exactly to plan.
Henry smiled and pressed play on the VCR remote "I thought we could watch 'Halloween'... That's if it won't scare you too much?"
"Uhhh…. No… That's fine I guess." Elizabeth groaned internally. She hated horror films with a passion. Not much phased Elizabeth Adams… But when it came to horror flicks, she was a complete wuss! And now she had to sit through some awful movie and try and disguise the fact that she would be, for the most part, absolutely terrified.
She managed a whole 15 minutes before she was scrunching her face up and leaning further into Henry, and as the film went on things didn't get any better. Henry had to move the popcorn away from her as she had almost sent it flying 3 times by jumping out of her skin, much to his amusement.
"Are you scared babe?" His wry smile did nothing to improve her mood.
"No… I'm not scared… I'm just finding it a bit boring is all." She was determined not to show Henry just how much the stupid movie was freaking her out.
As they continued watching, Elizabeth was curling herself further into Henry and was almost sat in his lap… Hiding behind a cushion and letting out little shrieks every now and then. Henry was finding the whole thing rather amusing. He had gathered early on that she was not particularly enamoured with the whole horror movie idea… But it was definitely working to his advantage as his stunning girlfriend held onto him as tightly as possible.
By the time the end credits began to roll, Elizabeth was fully in Henry's lap, arms around his neck, eyes tightly shut and her head buried against his shoulder. Exactly how both of them wanted to be.
"We could have watched something else if you'd wanted to…. You scare easily, don't you?!" Henry was smirking as her pulled her closer.
Elizabeth lifted her head off his shoulder and glared at him "I do not… I just didn't like that particular film… And I thought we were supposed to be having a romantic evening!" Her clear lack of amusement at the situation was etched on her face.
Henry tightened his grip around her and moved closer so his lips were almost touching hers "This feels pretty romantic to me." He closed the gap and drew her into him… Gliding his tongue across her lips as she opened her mouth slightly, relaxing into the kiss as if it were second nature.
His hands found their way under her shirt as things began heating up between them…. They were so comfortable with each other and they seemed to have an unspoken understanding….. Things always started off this way, but always seemed to stop before they could take that final step. It wasn't even that they had decided not to… It just never seemed to happen.
Elizabeth lifted her shirt over her head and then removed Henry's before he had a chance to protest. The feel of his skin under her fingertips was sending her arousal to new heights and she'd never been so sure of what she wanted… She wanted him.
As their kisses resumed, she couldn't help but grind her hips slightly against his… Almost goading him into making a move….. Needing to know this is what he wanted too. When her hands reached for his belt, he stilled her movements "Elizabeth…. Maybe I should take you home?" It's not what he wanted but he didn't want her to feel pressured.
"I don't want to be on my own tonight…. I'd like to stay here… With you." The sparkle of her eyes and fullness of her lips had him entranced…. He couldn't have said no even if he'd wanted to.. which he most certainly didn't.
"Are you sure?…. We don't have to do anything." The softness of Henry's voice and sincerity of his words only cemented what she already knew…. She was falling in love with him.
Elizabeth climbed off his lap and kept her eyes fixed on his as she unzipped her jeans and slowly pushed them down her legs, stepping out of them as they hit the floor "I've never been more sure of anything in my life…. Take me to bed Henry."
It took Henry a few seconds to register her request but once it had sunk in, he leapt off the sofa and took her in his arms,... Trailing hot kisses down her neck as his hands roamed her body…. gliding across her silly skin…feeling her, caressing her as he skilfully removed her bra. He let his eyes focus on her breasts before setting to work with his mouth… Alternately Licking and sucking her quickly hardening nipples as his hands squeezed and fondled.
Elizabeth could feel her body tingle under his touch… Her arousal making itself very known between her legs "Henry… Bedroom… Now." She grabbed his hand and practically dragged him to the bedroom.
Their bodies and lips crashed together once more as passion took over… Henry couldn't keep his hands off her and Elizabeth was desperately trying to free him from the confines of his jeans…. Tugging at his belt with trembling hands.
"Let me." The gentle smile of his was ever present as he held her hands and moved them away while he removed the remainder of his clothes. She tried to move towards the bed but his hands on her hips stopped her in her tracks. His fingers caught in the lace of her panties and slid them down her long legs. He lifted each foot in turn so he could remove them completely and then much to her surprise, licked his way back up her thighs…. His hot breath so tantalising close to her center it made a shiver shoot straight up her spine.
He lifted one leg over his shoulder and gripped her ass cheeks tightly in his large hands to steady her…. As he was pretty sure what he was about to do would make her slightly unsteady.
She stared down at him… A rather worried expression conveying her insecurities "Henry… I…"
"It's ok baby…. Trust me." With one last smile in her direction he set to work. He used the tip of his tongue to slowly part her soft folds… The sweet taste of her making his mouth water… He was edging closer and closer to her most sensitive spot with every lick but he was teasing… Playing with her… Making her wait while building her up. When she let out a shaky breath, he sucked hard on her clit, flicking his tongue against her hard and fast.
"Ohhhhhh my god….. Uhhhhhhhhh." Each breath shuddered as her fingers weaved through his thick hair… Tugging slightly harder than intended "Holy shit." There were sensations shooting through her body that she'd never felt before…. She had no control of what was happening or how she was feeling and it was both terrifying and exhilarating in equal measure.
Henry glanced up at her… Watching the pure pleasure dance across her beautiful face. Things had gotten pretty heavy between them but he had never seen or made her come… However, that was all about to change and he could barely contain his own arousal.
He could feel her leg trembling against his bare shoulder and he took that as a cue to slide 2 fingers inside her, curling them up to massage that sweet spot as his tongue continued to swirl and suck insistently.
Elizabeth's shaky breaths and quiet pants had now evolved into loud moans as she fought against the inevitable….. She was torn between wanting to let go and needing to hang on a little while longer… But the choice was made for her as Henry grazed her clit with his teeth, giving her one last swipe of his tongue, sending her careering head first into a blinding, cataclysmic Orgasm. Her head fell back and she clung to Henry's shoulders, desperately trying not to fall….. The whole room was spinning and she could barely focus.
Henry slowly removed her leg from his shoulder and lifted her onto the bed, brushing her hair away from her face as he stared down at her "'I'm really not sure who enjoyed that more…..You taste fucking incredible and the way you look when you come… Jesus Elizabeth...That was hot."
Her eyes flickered open and the biggest grin crossed her face "I don't know who taught you to do that… But I need to buy them a drink! That was incredible."
"You liked that huh? Good to know…. You wanna stop there or keep going?" Henry was now hovering over her, barely able to control the strong urges pulsing through every fibre of his being… Her naked body so close to his was more than he would ever have dreamed when he'd first seen her. She was everything and more to him.
"Oh you're not stopping now… We're just getting started baby." As their lips met again, tongues duelling and temperatures rising, time seemed to stand still for them both….. This was a moment they had both wanted for some time and it felt like a dream that it was finally going to happen.
As Henry's lips trailed down the soft skin of her bare shoulders, she shifted her hips underneath him so they were lined up just right "Henry… I'm ready." Her fingertips were skating across his muscular back as she felt her heart rate increase "I want you… I want us."
He placed another gentle kiss against her lips and reached for the side table but Elizabeth stopped him "It's ok… I have it covered… I've been ready for a while."
As her arms wrapped around his neck, pulling him closer… He lowered himself upon her and sank as deep as he could go… The feel of her around him, the slight twitch of her muscles as she got used to the sensation… They both needed a minute to adjust… And then, as if it had always meant to be, Henry began moving slowly… systematically… Sensually. She was so warm… So wet for him and it just felt so right.
Elizabeth brought her knees up, resting them against Henry's sides as she rocked her hips in time with his. The slow burn was starting to gain momentum and she could hear the pounding of her heart in her ears as she let her eyes slip shut. They were alternating between sloppy, languid kisses and staring at each other… Henry could not bare to take his eyes off her, he wanted to see every expression, every flicker of pleasure as it crossed her face… He wanted nothing more than to make her happy.
When her legs moved and wrapped around him, her heels resting against his ass as she took him in even deeper, he was pretty sure he was going to detonate. His mind scrambled to think of something else… Anything else to hold off until she was ready. He had to make her come again.. He just had to… But she felt so good and the sounds falling from her lips were driving him insane. … He was luckily not alone as Elizabeth cried out….
"I can't ….I'm so sorry….. I'm right there…. Henry." Her thighs tensed as she gripped him even tighter "I'm coming…. Oh fuck…. Aaahhhhhhh." Her body was trembling underneath him as she let herself go, giving into him completely…. Totally…. Unreservedly…., Every muscle in her body contracting with the unrelenting waves of her Orgasm.
"Arghhhh fuck Elizabeth…." Henry let himself give into his climax… Coming inside her with a last thrust of his hips…. Holding himself above her on shaking arms as long as he could before pulling out and landing on the mattress beside her. "Holy fuck…. You are sensational." He glanced over at her and smiled "I love you so much Elizabeth." The words hung in the air for a few seconds before Elizabeth actually registered what he's said.
"You…. You what?" She propped herself up on her elbows and swallowed thickly.
"I'm in love with you…. I'm sorry I blurted it out like that…. But I really do."
Elizabeth crawled over and stared into his warm hazel eyes "I love you too Henry… So much." She placed a chaste kiss against his lips and slid off the bed, heading for the bathroom.
When she returned, she threw a towel at Henry and smiled "Cleanliness before godliness baby…. Then I can cuddle you."
Henry cleaned himself up and then snuggled under the duvet with Elizabeth in his arms…. Just where he wanted her to be. As they let sleep wash over them…. They both realised that what had started as a college romance could well end up as a whole lifetime.
