Chapter 5 - Primal Urges

I awoke maybe around 2 in the morning and I untangled myself from Shane's sleeping grasp. I sat up and stretched, hearing my shoulders make a familiar crack and pop. I felt the bed shift beneath me and saw movement behind me.

"Ready for round two?" He asked, stretching also.

"Round two?" I asked, raising a brow and remembering having my legs over his shoulders just a little while ago. I turned to face him and crawled towards him.

"Well I would be delighted to oblige. " I reached him and kissed him softly, his hands met my shoulders and rubbed circles on them. I was actually about to slip away in the night but since that had been the best sex I'd had in a long time I wouldn't say no to going again. He picked me up and placed me in his lap while we kissed, more passionately now. Moments later I was whisked off the bed and carried over to the wall which I was pressed up against, him holding me off the ground with my legs wrapped around his waist. He held my hips as he dropped me down on his member. I grunted, I wasn't as lubed up as I was before do it hurt a little. I wrapped my hands around his neck and kissed him more, he tucked his arm under me and went down to my folds with his other hand. He rubbed tender circles on my clit as he pressed his lips to mine, battling against my tongue with his own. I felt him get my juices going again before he removed his hand and held on to both of my hips. I ran my hands over his shoulders as he thrust into me and grunted, breathing heavily. I let out a loud groan as he hit the right spot and I felt his grin through the kiss. He broke apart our faces and moved to my neck, trying to find my sweet spot again. Once he found it he heard me let out another cry of passion. He thrust faster as he kissed and nipped at my neck, the friction down below. I tried to start kissing him again and he refused.

"Just let me do the work sweetheart. All you need to do is scream." He started kissing across my collar bone and down parts of my chest, keeping his fast pace. I did want to kiss him more but as he sped up a little it was hard to do anything but comply with his request. I let out an actual scream and this pleased him greatly.

"That's it baby, scream for me." I let out a moan of bliss and just as he thrust in again my legs started to shake. "It's okay baby, let it go. Come for me, just come for me."

It wasn't long after he said that, that I was coming for him. Again. I leaned my head back against the wall and panted. My body glistened with sweat in the pale moonlight and he leaned his head against my chest. I noticed he hadn't released yet and once he'd rested for a moment I started pushing his shoulders, trying to get him to go back towards the bed. He dropped me down on the mattress and was on his knees behind me and held my hips, ready to go into me doggy style.

"You must really like to hear me scream." I said a little breathless. I turned to face him.

"Let me take a little control. Trust me, I can get you there." I sat in his lap and pushed him down towards the headboard. His head hit the pillow and I pinned him down by his shoulders. I think he was a little surprised by my strength but not for long as I had dropped myself back down on his member, and leaned down to kiss him. I ran my tongue across his bottom lip as I started dropping myself down hard on his penis, lifting myself back up again and sliding along his shaft. I released him from my hold and allowed him to sit up, he brought his arms around me and held by back as I slammed myself onto him. I felt him groan a primal groan into my mouth as we fulfilled our very primal urges. He rolled his hips into mine and I let out a gasp and a moan as I was now able to reach my g-spot with his member. With our bodies grinding against each other and the friction satisfying us I let out another moan as we both came again, hard.

Gasping for breath I leaned my forehead against his and he dropped his arms. "Baby you sure know what you're doing." He said after a moment. I let out a soft, out of breath, laugh and leaned back a bit, dismounting and laying down on the bed beside him. He pulled me into his arms again.


When I woke up again it was 7am and I could hear birds chirping somewhere outside. I was still wrapped tightly in Shane's arms and feeling better rested than I had been in a long time. It seems going to that bar last night was a pretty good decision on my part. I smiled and then rolled over on my side, shimmying closer to Shane's sleeping form. He shifted behind me and kissed my shoulder. Apparently he wasn't as asleep as I'd thought. I looked at the clock and read the time. 7:15.

"Shit." I exclaimed.

"What?" Shane asked both interested and tired.

"I was supposed to be at work over an hour ago." I groaned rubbing my forehead.

"Don't go." He replied simply. "Problem solved."

I shifted to get out of bed and his hold on me tightened. "I at least need to call in, Shane." reluctantly he released me and I sat up. One of his hands was in the drawer beside his bed.

"Here." he said practically throwing a t-shit and pair of boxers at me. He rubbed his face into the pillow trying to get back to sleep and I laughed. I tugged on the baggy clothing he'd given me and slipped out of the room, walking across the cold floor. It wouldn't stay that for long, today was supposed to be a scorcher.

I headed downstairs to where I'd left my handbag the night before, picking up my shoes and socks as I went. I put my boots on the doormat in the hallway and tucked my socks inside them. Searching my handbag for my phone I noticed a missed call from my boss, Mike's brother, Ashley. Shit. I was so boned.

He'd left a message so I typed in the number and listened to it. "Hey Addie, it's Ash. Call me when you get this." Well that was worth listening to. I pressed redial and anxiously waited for his answer.

"Hello?" I heard Ash's tired and almost groggy response.

"Yeah, hey Ash it's me Addie."

"Addison? Oh yeah I rang you earlier."

"Yeah you did. Hey I'm really sorry I had a long night last night and I over slept I am so sorry." I ran a hand through my hair.

"Don't worry about it Addie. I was calling to tell you the site's closed for inspection today. They come at 9 and will be there most of the day. We wouldn't be able to start up until about 2 so we gave everyone the day off. It's too hot today to work anyway." Ash explained still sounding like he'd just woken up. Mike was pretty chill but Ash was the most casual and relaxed. How he was the bis boss I'll never know.

"Oh, okay. Hey I'm sorry if I woke you up. You sound tired."

"Yeah I also had a bit of a long night. Decided to get some shut eye."

"Oh, now I'm really sorry. I'll let you get back to it. Thanks Ash."

"Don't mention it." He replied and ended the call.

Well, at least I don't have to go to work. I stretched and headed back to bed. I never normally stayed the night with anyone, so this was new. I walked back up the stairs and climbed back in bed beside Shane, who upon my arrival, wrapped his arms back around me. It didn't take me long to fall back asleep and I honestly felt like I didn't want this moment to end.


The next time I woke up Shane was gone from the bed and all our clothes were off of the floor. Mine had been folded up and put on the nightstand next to me and I assumed Shane's were in the hamper by the bathroom. I ran my hands through my hair and tousled it a little. I sat up and climbed down the stairs again and headed to the kitchen where I could hear movement.

"Morning." Shane called over his shoulder. How he knew I was there I will never know. I sat on one of the stools by the counter. Resting my chin on my palm as I watched him doing whatever it was that he was doing.

"I haven't slept like that in ages." I commented. "Don't you have work?" I asked, noting the time on the wall clock.

"I don't work on Thursdays." He responded. "And I'm not surprised you slept so much after a workout like that." He grinned.

"Oh yeah?" I raised a brow.

"Yeah." He stopped for a moment and then smirked. "By the way, you snore."

"What?" I shook my head. "No way."

"Way. You snore like a puppy dog." He laughed.

"I hate you." I pouted.

"You won't be saying that in a minute," he replied, turning around and grabbing two plates from the cupboard. "How do you take your coffee?"

"Two sugars and cinnamon." I replied.

"Cinnamon? You're a fruitcake." He turned to look at me before he went through his cupboards looking for some cinnamon and handed it to me to put in my cup.

"You take milk?" He put the jug on the counter next to me. "Hope you like bacon and eggs."

"Are you kidding me. I bet you ten whole dollars that I could eat my body weight in bacon." I replied watching him stack up the plates and walk over to the table, where I followed him, admiring his shirtless form. "And thanks for breakfast, I wasn't expecting it."

"You were expecting to slip away in the night, right?" He responded, looking up from his plate.

"I'm never good at the morning after." I said honestly, trying not to talk with my mouthful. "The awkward coffee talk or shrugging my clothes on and doing the walk of shame. Or waking up and not really remembering where I am, saying goodbye to someone I really liked. It's easier if you just skip all of that."

"Will I be one of those goodbyes?" He asked not looking up at me this time.

"This goodbye doesn't have to be forever. Truth is I wouldn't mind seeing you again, no matter what the circumstances."


"You sure you don't want me to drive you?" Shane asked standing in his doorway. He was leaning against the frame and still refusing to wear his shirt. But at least he'd showered today, I made sure of that. After breakfast he'd carried me up the stairs and we'd showered together, him destroying what was left of my straightened hair, it turning back to a wavy mess.

"No, I've got a few stops to make along the way." I smiled, pulling my blonde hair up into a ponytail.

"And you've got my number, right?" He asked leaning out to kiss my cheek.

"Yeah I do. I'll be sure to call you." I walked down the front steps and headed out into town again, hoping that any of the random strangers about didn't realize I was wearing yesterday's clothing.

I got down past the park when I realized something and almost sent myself flying face down into the dirt. I'd slept with Shane more than three times last night and I don't remember using a condom once that night.

"Shit." I said out loud, receiving a dirty look from an old lady as she passed.
I ran my hands through my fringe and tried to regulate my breathing. I was standing hunched over in the park, holding my head and almost crying. I dropped down to my knees and rested my head down on them, sobbing uncontrollable sobs. I'm not sure how long I lay there before I heard a gruff but gentle southern voice call out to me.


"Ma'am?" The voice sounded familiar to me. "Ma'am are you alright?"

I looked up to meet the familiar blue eyes, worried and searching me for injuries. "Rick." I choked out.

"Addison." He walked over to me cautiously. "Are you hurt?"

I shook my head and he knelt down beside me. "Rick I've done something really stupid. I don't know what to do."

"What have you done Addison?" He asked trying to get me off of the ground. When I didn't respond he asked me again. "Addison, qhat have you done?" He asked more firmly.

"I need to talk to Lori." I said eventually.

"Is this about Carl?" He asked panicked. I shook my head in response. He relaxed almost instantly and breathed a sigh of relief.

"She would know what to do." I sobbed. He helped me up off the ground and wrapped his arms around me.

"You're okay Addison. Everything will be okay." He soothed and stroked my hair. He opened the back door to his police cruiser and helped me inside. Armstrong smiled kindly at me from the passenger seat while Rick drove me over to their family home.
