A/N - I have kinda lost my ability to write anything it seems…. So please accept my apologies for this. I'm not happy with it but I needed to get something out so I could try and nudge my brain… It's pretty much a chapter of bedroom antics so please skip if you don't like that kinda thing!…. I will try and get this back on track with the next chapter… Fingers crossed xx
As Henry carried Elizabeth through to her bedroom, she couldn't help the giggles escaping her. The copious amounts of wine she'd consumed coupled with the rather impressive orgasm that had just coursed through her body were a heady combination, leaving her feeling utterly relaxed and uninhibited. It didn't help that she was butt naked apart from the rather small throw she'd attempted to cover herself with, and as she was hanging over Henry's shoulder, he was tracing the back of her bare thigh with his fingertips. The more she wriggled against his touch, the more he tickled her and the resulting laughter filled the room.
He deposited her on the bed and stepped back to take in the sight before him. He had wanted to hold this incredible woman in his arms from the first second she had literally crashed into his life in the hallways of UVA and now here she was, laid out on the bed, grinning at him like an absolute goddess. He allowed himself a moment to appreciate just what he was lucky enough to be looking at. Her slightly messy hair was splayed across the pillow, her cheeks were flushed and the most incredible smile beamed up at him. The throw was covering her torso but her lusciously long legs were on full display and he couldn't help but wonder just how good they would feel wrapped tightly around him.
Elizabeth propped herself up on her elbows and threw him a questioning look "Henry?...I'm starting to think you don't like what you see…. Have you changed your mind?" Her smile was still very present but her eyes seemed to convey concern.
"Oh god no… I just wanted to look at you… You are incredible."
"You've seen nothing yet… Get over here and I'll show you just how incredible I can be." She had no clue where her confidence was coming from but Henry had tapped into something she just couldn't contain.
"You have no idea how sexy you actually are do you? All this time I thought you were this shy professor when really you're hotter than hell."
Elizabeth giggled again "Should a religion professor really be talking about hell?"
"I'm having the weekend off."
"In that case… We'd better be extra sinful just to make the most of it." She tossed the throw and tilted her head slightly "Come and get me."
Henry could barely contain himself, discarding his clothes in a frenzy as he made his way over to the bed. He kissed his way up her body, paying particular attention to her breasts which earned him a rather erotic moan from Elizabeth "You really like that don't you?…. I can't wait to find out what else gets you going." His lips met hers in a searing kiss, the warmth of her mouth and taste of merlot on her lips was heavenly and he couldn't wait any longer… This was their moment and he was going to worship her. His fingers tangled with hers as the weight of his body pressed her further into the mattress. He was sucking the pulse point on her neck and her entire body was crying out for him.
"Henry….Have you got protection?" Her words were all breathy which only aroused him further.
"Are you so rough I need armour or something? Jesus Elizabeth… You really are wild aren't you."
"Oh you're such a smartass Henry… Just hurry up."
He clambered off the bed and pulled his wallet from his jeans… A rather anguished look spreading across his face "Oh fuck… I don't have one."
"Quit messing Henry…. Come on."
"Babe…. I'm so sorry."
Elizabeth sat herself up, looking somewhat discouraged "Really? Are you being serious right now?...After all those messages we sent, you don't have a single one?"
"I didn't want to be presumptuous…That clearly backfired spectacularly…. And to be fair I was a little distracted….You sure you don't have any here?"
She shot henry a perplexed look "As you're the first guy I've even thought about since Aaron… I didn't have much use for them… Sorry,"
"I'm sorry babe…Stupidity seems to be claiming me tonight."
Elizabeth flopped back against the bed with a exasperated sigh "Well I guess this isn't happening tonight…. Maybe it just isn't meant to be."
Henry pulled his clothes on as quickly as he'd shed them "Oh yes it is…. Just hold that thought." He gave her a quick kiss and headed for the door "I'll be right back."
By the time Henry returned, he found Elizabeth curled up in bed, fast asleep. He desperately wanted to wake her and finish what they'd started, and was pretty sure she'd want him to, but she looked so peaceful, he couldn't bring himself to disturb her. He very briefly entertained the idea of going back to his place but had an overwhelming desire to hold her as she slept. So with that thought in his head, he stripped down to his boxers and climbed into her bed, wrapping his arms around her as the warmth of her body and scent of her perfume engulfed him. She stirred slightly before falling back into a deep sleep…. It wasn't exactly the evening they had planned…. But as far as Henry was concerned… It was perfect.
Elizabeth slowly opened her eyes and blinked a few times, attempting to adjust her eyes to the sunlight that was creeping through the blinds. She was pretty certain she hadn't been drunk enough to pass out, but couldn't quite remember what had transpired. She then felt Henry's arms squeeze her a little bit tighter and a smile spread across her face.
"Are you awake?" She could feel his warm breath against her neck as he pressed his lips against her skin.
"Hmmmmm…. I think so… Unless I'm having a pretty fantastic dream." She allowed her eyes to slip shut again as she revelled in the comfort of his arms…. And then they shot open "Oh my god…. Did we?… I can't remember…. Things are a little hazy...You weren't here when I fell asleep…Were you?"
Henry chuckled "No… We didn't! By the time I got back with the precautionary measures, you were fast asleep… And you looked so peaceful I didn't want to wake you….. I hope it's ok that I stayed? I so desperately wanted to hold you."
"Not at all… I love that you're here." She lifted the covers slightly and peered down at her naked body…. Noticing where Henry's hands were. "You are very well behaved… I'm laying here naked and your hands are strategically placed." She tilted her head to get a look at his face… Which was beaming with the most perfect of smiles. "You really are a true gentleman."
"Oh believe me it is taking every ounce of self control I have to keep them where they are… And I'm really not that much of a gentleman." He pulled her body closer to his and she grinned as she felt his erection pressing against her back "I'm sorry but you are so fucking sexy I can't help it."
She rolled over and smiled up at him "Wanna try this again? I mean… We've already slept together and it would be a real shame not to…."
She was silenced by Henry's mouth on hers. The frantic pace of the night before had now been replaced by a more gentle, intimate approach and it was certainly having the desired effect on Elizabeth. Her arousal had been laying dormant while she slept, but as Henry's hands roamed her body, it resurfaced with vigour. She reached her hand between them, into his boxers and started stroking his length, The feel of him in her palm making her crave him even more. Henry groaned as she increased her pace… The feel of her hands on him was so over stimulating, he could feel himself slipping and had to pull her hand away.
"Don't you like that Henry?" She knew damn well what the answer would be but her rather naughty alter ego had returned. "You really seemed to be liking it…. Want me to try something different?… My mouth maybe?" She was grinning at him in such a way it was sending sparks right through him.
"Who are you and what have you done with Elizabeth?"
"It's your fault…. You bring out the dirty in me…. Let me show you."
Ridding himself of the confines of his underwear, he reached over for the little foil packet that had so cruelly halted their progress the night before and quickly slid it on "Would you please shut up now so i can kiss you?"
"Uh-huh." Her arms wrapped around his neck as he slowly and gently eased inside her. She tensed at the slight burn but was soon relaxing into it as he shifted his hips, his movements slow and methodical. He wanted to build her up slowly, make it last… He was pretty sure this would be a moment he would never forget and he was certainly in no hurry for it to be over.
Elizabeth's head was spinning… It had been a long time since she'd felt this way and as she wrapped her legs tightly around his body she couldn't help the deep moan that escaped her. The pleasure was starting to wash over her in gentle waves, intensifying with each grind of their hips. It was relaxing yet satisfying… And the tiny tingles of pre-orgasmic built up were starting to flicker in her core.
Henry caught her gaze… needing to see her… needing to know she was okay. He was falling in love with her and as he felt her body moving beneath his, it was almost overwhelming. A cute smile danced on her lips as she looked into is hazel eyes.. This was about far more than sex for both of them and it was becoming very clear that more than just physical feelings were at play.
Her breathy pants and soft whimpers were increasing in line with his pace and as he slid his hands under her ass to lift her hips, her mouth dropped open and she cried out. He was hitting just where she needed him and she couldn't hold it together.
"Henry… " was all she managed before her whole body began convulsing beneath him. It was a sight to behold as her back arched off the bed and she gripped his shoulders as if needing to keep from levitating…. Ohhhh...god."...Henry kept thrusting into her, over and over until his climax reached its peak… He gripped her hands above her head, panting as he regained his composure. It wasn't until he opened his eyes and looked down at her, he noticed the tears trickling from the corners of her eyes.
He moved his body to the side and pulled her close "Oh baby, it's okay….. I've got you." He stroked her hair and let her cry it out. He figured there would be an onslaught of emotions he couldn't possibly understand… But he could be there to comfort her. When she seemed to have calmed he tried his luck "I wasn't that bad, was I?" He heard a little chuckle and she moved her head to look at him.
"I'm sorry Henry… First time since… Well, you know and it just caught me off guard…That was amazing." Her hand brushed his face and she placed a gentle kiss on his lips "I'm falling so quickly… Don't break my heart.. Okay?"
"Never…. I swear to you I'll keep it safe…I'm not going to hurt you Elizabeth… I care way too much for you." As they kissed again, he held her as tightly as possible "Shall we go and get some breakfast?... We could take a walk through the park."
"That sounds perfect…I'm just a little worried I won't be able to keep my hands to myself…. You've started something now McCord." She sat up and pulled a shirt on "I'm gonna take a shower…. Feel free to join me professor."
Henry watched her saunter out of the room and had to stop himself from sprinting after her. He looked down at the space she'd just vacated and smiled…. This was more than he could ever have imagined and he felt euphoric. He was pulled out of his trance by Elizabeth's voice calling him from the bathroom…
"Henry….. Are you coming or am I starting round two on my own?" This time… Nothing stopped him sprinting to her.
