Phoebe walked in the penthouse after a long day at work and placed her purse and jacket on the coffee table. Working as an advice columnist at the Bay Mirror was probably the best job she could have had right now.
She felt extremely lucky to have this job fall right into her lap out of nowhere. The universe must have heard her talking about it with Piper. There is no other explanation.
"Cole?" Phoebe called, but got no answer and looked at her watch.
"He must be still at the office," Phoebe thought and went to the kitchen to open the fridge.
She grabbed a steak for Cole and some vegetables for her. She turned the oven on, as she heard the elevator ding and smiled.
Cole walked in and sighed.
"Hey, baby," Phoebe smiled as she approached him, but her smile dropped, once she noticed his expression.
"Is everything ok?"
Phoebe asked and Cole grabbed her and kissed her passionately. Phoebe gasped at the sudden contact and wrapped her arms around his neck. He sucked on her lips as Phoebe parted her lips to welcome his tongue in her mouth. After a couple of minutes, Cole gave her one last peck and looked at her closed eyes. They were both gasping for air. Phoebe opened her eyes and caressed Cole's face.
"Hi."
"Hi," Cole replied with a raspy voice.
"What was that for?"
"Can't I kiss my wife?"
"Of course, you can. I just thought something was wrong," Phoebe said and Cole held her closely without saying anything.
"Is something wrong?" Phoebe asked again worried and Cole let a small sigh.
"Nothing really," Cole said honestly, "I'm just a bit overwhelmed with work and you're the only person that makes everything better."
Phoebe smiled, "I do?"
"You know, you do."
Phoebe kissed him again and loosened his tie.
"Well, I do have my ways."
"I bet you do."
Phoebe smiled again. She licked her lips and Cole bit her lower lip.
"You're the greatest lawyer in all of the world, remember? Whatever it is, it's going to be ok."
"You're right," Cole chuckled and so did Phoebe.
"You hungry?"
"I'm starving."
"Good, cause I've got steak in the oven."
"God, I love you," Cole said.
"I bet you do," Phoebe repeated his words and smiled. She escaped his embrace, "It's going to take a while, cause I just got home myself," she said and headed to the kitchen.
"It's fine. Maybe we can find something else to do, while waiting for dinner to be ready," Cole said and pulled her from behind wrapping his arms around her waist.
"I still have to fix something for me."
"Oh, fine."
"Maybe, if you're a good boy, we might find something interesting to do after dinner."
"Maybe?" Cole exclaimed and Phoebe rolled her eyes.
"Ugh. Fine. I'll go get a shower," Cole said and pinched her butt.
She let out a small scream and headed to the kitchen.
Cole removed his tie and headed to the bathroom.
Phoebe smiled. She checked Cole's steak and chopped her vegetables. After preparing her meal and turning the oven off, she smirked to herself and exited the kitchen.
Cole had removed his clothes and got into the shower, when he heard the door open. Phoebe unbuttoned her shirt and took her skirt, bra and underwear off.
"Hey, you," Phoebe said and got in the shower.
Cole smiled, as his eyes traveled throughout her small, but still curvy body and licked his lips.
"So, what did I do to deserve this?"
"Wouldn't you like to know?"
Cole smiled and brought her closer to him.
"Ah-ah-ah. Hold on," Phoebe pushed him back and caused Cole to frown.
"I want to make you relax."
"Oh, but what I have in mind relaxes me more than you think," Cole said and tried to bring her closer again.
"Cole."
He sighed and she grabbed the shampoo, "Come here," she said gently and started applying the shampoo massaging his head.
"Mmm… This feels so good."
"I told you," Phoebe whispered in his ear.
"Will you do my whole body, too?"
"We'll just have to see about that," Phoebe said seductively and bit his earlobe playfully.
"Ugh. Enough," Cole growled, turned around and pulled her furiously to him.
Phoebe wrapped her arms around him and Cole kissed her desperately. He couldn't stand this game anymore, even though it wasn't really a game, like the ones they usually played. He knew Phoebe wanted to make him feel better, but the only thing he really needed right now was to bury himself inside her. It felt like forever since the last time they made love and it was only a day.
Phoebe always made him feel better. It wasn't about the sex. Well, not just about the sex. He was an open book to her, which he used to find weird. It even annoyed him at first, however now he had fully embraced it. He loved that about her; she always knew when something was wrong about him and when he needed her to comfort him and just be there for him. Whenever she was around him, he felt complete. It was inexplicable how he changed while being around her. He wasn't grumpy nor cold, like other people thought of him. Especially her sisters, for instance, they never really liked him before they got married. They knew he loved Phoebe, but his attitude used to irritate Paige.
"Phoebe," Cole whispered kissing her.
"Oh, Cole…"
Cole kissed her deeply and wrapped her legs around his waist and pushed her onto the bathroom wall.
Phoebe grabbed his hair, as he stroked her breast with his hand.
"I need you," Cole whispered.
"I'm right here," Phoebe uttered and Cole thrust into her.
She gasped and held him even closer if that was possible.
"I love you. So. Much," Cole looked at her and then kissed her.
"I love you, too. So much, baby," Phoebe moaned.
After a very satisfying round, they showered and wrapped their towels around them.
"Well, that was relaxing," Phoebe bit her lip.
"I'd say," Cole kissed her.
"God, I love sex after work. It gets rid of all the nervous jitters from working all day," Phoebe said and opened the door.
"Good to know," Cole followed her in their bedroom and wrapped his arms around her.
"This feels so amazing," Phoebe closed her eyes and smiled.
"What does?"
"This. Us."
Cole kissed her neck and she turned around.
"Are you feeling better?" Phoebe rested her hands on his chest.
"Much," Cole nodded and she smiled.
"Let's go eat," Phoebe kissed him and went to her closet to get dressed.
"I prefer you naked, baby," Cole approached her and placed his arms on her stomach, after she removed the towel and threw it on their bed.
Phoebe chuckled and Cole smiled. For a second there he thought her body felt different, but he didn't want to say anything. They were in a good place, why ruin the moment?
On the other hand, Phoebe, too, was feeling different the last couple of weeks. She wasn't eating much, yet she felt her body fuller. She even started not eating much at night, which didn't help a lot. Last night she wondered if she could be… "But no... No way. This can't be it. There's just no way."
"Same to you," Phoebe removed his hands and opened her drawer.
After dinner, they just laid on the couch together watching a movie on TV.
"Ha!"
"Ugh, not fair," Cole said.
"Told you, she was the murderer," Phoebe looked up.
"But, the other guy seemed so good to be, well, not good," Cole argued.
"At least it wasn't the other boyfriend, which would have been too predictable."
"You know, just because I tried killing you once… or twice…" Cole said and Phoebe laughed.
"Nice one," Phoebe rolled her eyes and untangled herself from him and straddled him.
"I'm a witch. You're under my spell. What did you expect?"
"Hmmm… So, I'm forced to love you forever and never hurt you. Is that right?" Cole placed his hands on her hips.
"You don't have another choice," Phoebe said matter of factly and played with his boxer's elastics.
"Wouldn't have it any other way," Cole said in a rapsy voice and she smiled kissing him.
She deepened the kiss and he squeezed her butt.
"Fuck," Cole muttered, "you smell so good."
Phoebe rubbed her nose with his and he kissed her passionately.
Then, she kissed his neck and took his white shirt off and kissed him all over his chest and moved southern and removed his boxers, too…
