MONTH LATER
Claire and Alex have had no contact due to Claire jealously…..
"What are you doing here, I thought you would be with Tess, in her bedroom like you have been for the last 2 months," Claire said slyly, Alex sighed,
"I broke up with her Claire," he said sitting next to her, she looked up smiling slightly,
"Oh well that's no good, are you okay?" Claire asked trying to sounds sympathetic, but failing miserably,
"Nice Claire," Alex chuckled at her poor attempt to keep how happy she was to herself. There was a pause, "You know one thing I miss though?" Alex said looking up at Claire who rolled her eyes
"The sex," she guessed shaking her head,
"Nope, I miss you," he said taking Claire's hand and kissing it, she smiled at him shocked that Alex Ryan was that smooth at talking a chick up,
"Nah, I missed you too," she said kissing him, he responded by darting his tongue in her mouth, the passion and desperation taking over as Alex sat Claire on the bench, she wrapped her legs around his waist, pulling his hips to hers. She smiled as he kissed her she could feel the arousement of not only herself but Alex in-between her legs. Alex's hands began to make their way to Claire jean's still kissing Claire's moist lips he undid the button and zip revelling Claire's underwear, his left hand caressing her breast, she moaned slightly as his finger's rubbed her through her underwear until. There was a scream of horror. Claire and Alex both turned to find a shocked Jodi staring at them, that scream of shock soon turned to laugher, Jodi ran for it,
"CLAIRE'S MYSTERY MAN IS ALEX RYAN!" Jodi yelled as loud as she could. Claire launched off the bench leaving Alex to watch her chase Jodi and try and zip up her jeans at the same time. The thunder of feet could be heard from the kitchen,
"What an earth is that?" Meg asked Tess as the door was heard being swung open, sounding as if it almost came off its hinges,
"CLAIRE MYSTERY MAN IS ALEX RYAN!" Jodi yelled breathless, Meg bit her tongue,' oh no', was all she though, while Tess stood shell shocked until the door was swung open again, the sound was followed by Claire,
"NO, NO, NO, NO IT'S NOT," she yelled desperate to convince everyone, but who was she convincing with her jean's almost around her ankles,
"I saw you Claire McLeod, kissing Alex Ryan," Jodi said pointing at Claire, as she buttoned up her jeans,
"Claire?" Tess asked raising an eyebrow at her flustered sister,
"I'm sorry Tess, it only just happened I know it's so close to you and him breaking up but, it just happened," Claire answered blushing,
"Claire, how could you," Tess frowned,
"It's a one off, I swear Tess," Claire pleaded, Tess shook her head before hugging her sister,
"You are one weird sister," Tess exclaimed looking at Claire's jean's that had her shirt stuck in the zip, Claire groaned before laughing slightly,
"Is it safe to enter?" Alex asked ducking his head around the corner as Claire fixed her zip and shirt,
"Yeah, have you got a thing for the McLeod's Alex?" Tess asked sitting back down at the table with Jodi,
"Yeah there irresistible," he chuckled kissing Claire on the cheek; she nudged him with her elbow. He wrapped his arms around her.
Claire pulled her belt tight and fastened it just as Tess stuck her head around the door, her face dropped,
"I see you've got you good jeans on," Tess exclaimed sarcastically, Claire looked at her frowning,
"Yeah of course," she answered smoothing out her shirt,
"Claire, I've only ever seen you wear jeans, work jeans, pub jeans, rodeo jeans and going out jeans," Tess complained, Claire chuckled slightly,
"It an eighteenth Tess, not exactly a formal event and plus it's in the shed," Claire stated as she began to walk out of her bedroom down the stairs with Tess,
"One day I'll get you in a dress," Tess smirked as they walked to the kitchen,
"Tess, I have a dress," Claire stated as they continued to walk through the kitchen out to the back yard,
"Since when?" Tess asked shocked, "I've never seen it?" she said running to keep up with Claire,
"The old B&S dress, I'm sure it's got a couple of years left in it," Claire laughed as they met up with Meg,
"Hi Meg, does Claire have a dress?" Tess asked still running to keep up with Claire and Meg,
"Ah, oh yes the red one, you wore to the B&S," Meg said smiling at Claire as she opened the door to the shearing shed,
"SUPRIIII," the group trailed off frowning,
"Where's Jodi?" Craig asked frowning,
"I'm getting her now," Meg stated walking back out as Claire made her way over to Alex.
"Hey," she smiled as he put his arm around her, Nick looking over at the two as Tess awkwardly stood next to him,
"How are ya' McLeod?" he asked as they looked at each other's eyes,
"Yeah good, you?" she asked smiling at Tess, who was feeling quiet awkward standing next to the man, she had fallen head over heels in love with, Nick.
"Fantastic," he answered as their lips met, but they were soon interrupted by the footsteps of both Meg and Jodi.
"SURPRISE!" the group erupted in laughter and whistles, Jodi was shock she jumped back at how many people were there.
Claire, Alex and Nick sat around the drinks table,
"So Claire, though you'd be past this?" Alex asked with a sly smile as she filled her glass with scotch,
"Ugh please," she laughed taking a sip of scotch,
"What about you?" Nick asked cocking his head towards Alex,
"Please Nick, I have plenty left in me," Alex laughed taking a sip of his beer,
"What so you can pick up all the girls," Claire asked raising her eyebrow at him,
"Yeah, ask every single girl and see who says yes," Nick laughed with Claire,
"Augh gee give me a break," Alex laughed, "Claire, care for a dance?" he asked raising his eyebrow, Claire smiled cheekily, grabbing his hand and taking for the dance floor. Claire fell into Alex's chest as his hands rested on her hips; she smiled contently as Alex's hands made their way over her hips, only to stop at her pocket. Claire felt him grab the contents of her pocket, before picking it out, he was shocked at what he saw, Claire looked down at his hand as he held the two condom's, she looked up at him shocked as well,
"What's all this?" Alex asked with a cheesy grin,
"Oh there Meg's I found them," Claire answered looking back down at them,
"Ah, you sure about that?" Alex laughed, Claire hit him on the chest, there was a silence between the two as Claire stuffed the condoms back into her pocket.
"Might go outside, get some fresh air," Claire announced walking off through the crowd, Alex followed her with his eye's till Tess walked up to him,
"Care for a dance Alex?" Tess smiled holding her hand out,
"Thanks but, I gotta go see Claire," Alex answered still looking to the door were Claire left,
"Oh why is something wrong?" Tess asked with worry sweeping over her face,
"No, it's just I have to talk to her," Alex stated as he began to walk out of the shed, seeing Claire in the distance. Alex arrived at Claire's side, putting his arm around her back, she smile at him before looking back over the creek,
"You right?" Alex asked rubbing her back gently,
"I don't know what I'm doing?" Claire announced crossing her arms in anger,
"What do you mean?" Alex asked frowning confused,
"I don't know what I'm doing with my life," Claire said looking up at Alex, worry settling in her eye's, Alex smiled sincerely,
"Neither do I, Claire. Just take one day at a time hey?" he said taking her back into his arms, she nodded contently. Breathing deeply to the smell of Drover's and Alex, what more would she want. There was a comforting silence between the two as they both over looked the water rippling in the creek, listening intently to the sounds of nature, the frogs, the crickets.
"You wanna go for a swim?" Alex asked with a cheesy grin, still overlooking the creek, as Claire looked up at him frowning,
"Alex, it will be freezing, and I don't have my bather's!" Claire exclaimed looking up at Alex,
"I don't have mine either," he smiled, Claire groaned rolling her eyes,
"Look at all the people Alex, we can't," Claire exclaimed turning around to look at the endless cars that were parked around the property, she felt a bolt of fear run up her spine as she heard the thundering of feet behind, she turned to see Alex running for her, he picked her up,
"ALEX, DON'T YOUR DARE!" Claire yelled as they headed for the creek, Alex's face was plastered with an idiotic smile as he looked at Claire, who clawed at his shirt for grip, he loved her so much, the way he hair hung weightlessly down, her eye's which glinted in the moonlight and her smile, which could make everything okay. The echo of the 'splash could be heard as Alex and Claire's heads erupted from the water,
"AHHHH ALEX!" Claire shrieked the cold going straight through her, he laughed as he swam over to her,
"nice isn't it?' he asked still laughing as he took Claire in his arms,
"Are you kidding!" she stuttered, her teeth chattering. Alex wrapped her up tightly as she shook from the cold,
"You know that I love you," Alex exclaimed staring into Claire's eye that were lit by the moonlight,
"Yeah," she smiled, "I love you too," she added before they kissed,
"HIP HIP HORRAY," echoes through the tree's and hills, Claire pulled away from Alex,
"Opp's," she exclaimed giggling slightly, "we better go see her," Claire added as she began to swim to the side of the creek,
"Claire, if you haven't noticed were saturated and, she won't noticed she too obsessed with that dj guy," Alex exclaimed as he too clambered out of the creek, the wind piecing both Alex and Claire's skin, Claire frowned up at him, before he lent into her,
"Why don't we go back to the house," he said in a husky tone,
"Yeah" she stated giving him a cheeky smile as his hands followed the curves of her body,
"Yeah, the place all to ourselves," he said lost in Claire, she smiled at him before kissing him passionately and leading him to the house.
"Ah Alex," Claire exclaimed giggling as she ran up to stairs to the bedroom, Alex hot on her tail, she ran through the door, only to be taken in Alex's arms, he slapped her arse as he caught her, making Claire screech in pleasure. She turned in his arms to kiss him, Alex closing the door behind him, he pushed her hard against the wall, the thud echoing around the house,
"You tell me if I'm too rough," Alex exclaimed into Claire lips, she moaned a slight yes before kissing him gripping onto his waist to push her harder into the wall, her legs gripping onto Alex's waist, she felt the arousement of Alex pulsating between her legs. She smiled as Alex pulled and tugged at her shirt, he lifted her up, her shirt half undone with two buttons broken. He lay her on the bed, pulling at the last button, breaking the thread it fell to the floor. Claire looked down over her body as Alex's hands caressed it. Claire sat up as she began to viciously tug on Alex's buttons, as he began to work on Claire's jeans. He grabbed her belt with his teeth, and undid it with easy ripping it off, Claire repaying the gesture by ripping Alex's jeans off with a swift motion. Alex kissing her neck before biting it, Claire clawed at Alex's bare back wrapping her legs tightly around Alex's waist feeling his erection rub on her she moaned into his ear,
"Alex," she gasped as he rubbed her right breast, "Fuck me," she breathed, he smiled entering her, she screamed in pleasure, putting her head back and closing her eye's with sheer pleasure. Alex grasped her hips as he moved in her as hard and as fast as he could, her moans echoing around the house as she still clawed at his back, encouraging him more, he kissed her as she let out another gasp of pleasure as he pounded in her. He kissed her deeply looking at the sheer pleasure filling her eye's, her moan's beginning to turn into high pitch gasps as she got closer and closer to her orgasm, only to hear the shower turn on, she held her breath as Alex hit her hard again,
"Ohh Alex, Tess!" she gasped letting her breath go,
"It's alright, just be quiet," he said breathless, as he continued his amazing rate,
"I can't," she yelp as she clawed his back further, he laughed, before Claire let out yet another piecing scream of pleasure, as she bucked against his erection, Alex began to slow down, just as exploded into her, letting out a sigh of relief. They fell gently to the side of each other, both breathing deeply for air.
"Claire, your amazing," Alex sighed contently as they lay together, she laughed rolling over to look at him, "You wanna come have a shower?' he asked resting his hand on her side,
"I'd love to but, Tess," Claire said raising her eyebrow displeasingly,
"Alright I'll be back in second," he smiled kissing her before putting a towel around his waist and walking out of the room. To meet Tess, she frowned at him,
"Hey Tess," he beamed walking past her, she turned,
"Oh my god Alex!" she exclaimed running up to him, he turned around to find Tess following him,
"Tess, what is it?" he asked confused at her reaction,
"Look at you back!" she exclaimed touching the raw flesh of his back,
"Ouch, Tess," he exclaimed turning around still confused,
"What's happened?" Tess asked worried,
"Nothing, what is on my back Tess?" he asked adamant,
"Look in the mirror, your bleeding," she exclaimed pushing him into the bathroom, were he glanced at his back, seeing three blood trickles and endless red scratches to his back, he chuckled, before looking at a less then amused Tess,
"What's so funny," she asked still worried,
"It's okay Tess, it's nothing," he said walking to the door of the bathroom,
"It doesn't look like nothing," she exclaimed crossly, "What happened, did Claire notice it?" Tess asked standing with her arms crossed,
"What do you mean, did Claire notice it?" Alex asked as Claire exited her room, looking at the commotion,
"What is going on?" she asked frowning at Tess,
"Have you seen Alex's back!" Tess exclaimed in horror at Claire, Claire's heart jumped in fear, but she burst out laughing with Alex when she saw what she had done,
"What is so funny?" Tess asked now enraged,
"Look Tess I did that," Claire said slightly embarrassed,
"What? Why?" Tess asked in shock,
"It was by accident, I just got caught up in the moment," Claire blushed, Tess frowned in disguised, before walking back to her room in anger, as Alex and Claire fell into each other's arms laughing.
Alex awoke to rustling, he stretched as he opened his eyes seeing Claire buttoning up her shirt, he looked to the alarm,
"Claire it's 5 in the morning," he exclaimed sitting up exhausted,
"I have work to do Alex," she smiled straightening her collar in the mirror,
"But aren't you exhausted?' he asked rubbing his eyes,
"It takes more than 3 hours of non-stop sex, to keep me down Alex Ryan," she laughed turning to face him,
"I like the sound of that!" he said shocked, he laughed as Claire sat on the edge of the bed,
"Yeah you would," she laughed as he hugged her, she embraced him, his bare skin soothing her flustered face,
"Hey I'm a guy I have needs," he shrugged as they parted,
"You dag!" she exclaimed kissing him, as the sun rose on Drover's and rose on a couple that would last for years to come.
