Okay, so I started another one. I have smut on the brain. However, I haven't gotten to the smut yet. Be patient, however. LOL
I don't own, just borrow
[IMGhttp://i187. was exhausted. She had just worked a double-shift, mainly due to two nurses calling in. She didn't mind, she could use the money, but now she was paying for it. Her back was killing her, her feet were throbbing, and she hadn't eaten anything since before her original shift. She silently thanked Emily for calling and offering to take the boys from daycare and bringing them over to Windemere for the night.
She slipped the key into the lock and turned the door open to her house, only to be shocked to the core. There, standing in the middle of her living room, was Jason, surrounded by candle light.
Sliding his hands into his pockets, Jason nervously looked up at her, a boyish smile gracing his face.
Bringing a hand to her chest, Elizabeth closed the door behind her, tears filling her eyes at the beautiful scene he created. Candles were placed everywhere; on the coffee table, on the fireplace mantle.
"Jason, what is all this?"
Taking in a deep breath, he looked down for a moment to collect his thoughts before looking back up, his crystal blue eyes boring into her darker ones.
"This," he said as he motioned all around him, "is our beginning."
His words immediately brought tears to her eyes. For so long, both had denied what they felt for each other. Even before their one night together, the feelings for each other that were buried deep within them, were buried.
At that moment, there was no reason to hold back. There was no lie keeping them apart anymore. The secret was out and everyone knew that Jake was Jason's son. Lucky and Sam were together now, in the sense that they were sharing a bed at every chance.
Since the truth came out, however, there hadn't really been any time to consider what comes next for them. They were so busy dealing with the fallout from others to really consider their options. Obviously, Jason knew what he wanted, thought Elizabeth with a smile.
She walked down the step toward him, her hands running up and down her legs nervously. Her bottom lip was being abused by her teeth.
"Can we really do this?" She was scared. Suddenly she was getting everything she'd ever wished for, and she was absolutely terrified.
Jason nodded, his eyes glowing with happiness and love.
"We can. I think we deserve it."
She shook her head slowly, tears spilling from her eyes down her cheeks. She wrapped her arms around her middle, dropping her head down shamefully.
"But I don't, Jason. I don't deserve anything. All I've done is hurt everyone. I lied to Lucky, made him believe he was Jake's father, let him get close to that boy, only to rip that away from him in the end. I kept you from your son. I've hurt you so badly. How can you love me at all?" Her body shook from sobs as she refused to look at him.
He reached over and grabbed her arm, pulling it from her stomach. He slid his hand down her elbow to her hand, pulling softly, bringing her against him. She placed her hands on his chest and looked up at him, her face stained with tears, her eyes red. He reached around her and ran his hands softly up and down her back, bringing her even closer to him, their faces mere inches from each other.
"You did what you thought was right. You were trying to protect your son. I went along with you, so your decisions are my decisions." He reached up and ran his fingers along her cheek. "We deserve this, Elizabeth. We both denied ourselves for so long." His hand reached around her neck, holding the back as his thumb caressed her jawline. His eyes focused clearly on her lips. "I love you, and I love those boys."
"Jason," she sighed, her hands sliding up, wrapping around his neck, bringing her body tight against his. "I love you too."
He let out a sigh of relief, reaching down and capturing her lips with his own, letting them linger for a moment before pulling back, only to move in again, this time his hand on the back of her head, groaning as she opened her mouth, allowing him access. His tongue glided along the roof of her mouth, tasting her, taking in her essence. Her tongue found his and glided along the top slowly, tangling with each other. Her hand slipped into his hair, gripping harshly, as she jumped up, wrapping her legs around him tightly, causing him to gasp into her mouth.
Pulling back from each other, the gazed into each other's eyes, breathless from their kisses. Her tongue snaked out and glided along her lips, tasting him. The simple act caused Jason to shudder. Never in his life had wanted anything or anyone more than he wanted the woman in his arms at that moment.
She moved her hand to his cheek, gently stroking him with her thumb. Her eyes bore into his, getting lost in the ocean blue orbs. She swallowed a lump in her throat before speaking.
"Upstairs. First door on your left."
He knew what she was talking about immediately. It was her bedroom. He knew what it meant. He stood there for a moment, needing to know if she was sure.
She looked at him, wondering why he wasn't moving, then realized what he needed. She rested her forehead against his and smiled.
"I love you, Jason. I want this. I want you."
He let out a breathe he didn't even realize he wasn't holding and held onto her even tighter. He moved his head back from hers and walked up the stairs, holding her butt in his hands, her feet clasped behind his back.
When they reached the door to her bedroom, he let her slip out of his arms, immediately feeling the loss. She smiled up at him and grabbed the knob, opening it and walking through, then holding it open for him.
"Come in, Jason," she said softly, her voice confident and sure. He smiled as he walked through the door, closing it behind him and locking it. He knew no one else was home, but it didn't hurt to air on the side of caution.
When he turned around she was sitting on the edge of her bed, nibbling on her bottom lip. She looked up at him and noticed he wasn't moving. She reached up and held her hand out to him in silent invitation.
