'And he took me out for lunch and it was the most amazing Caesar salad I had ever eaten!'
Rey walked into her form room on Monday morning to the sight of Baz holding court and loving the attention.
She turned just as Rey entered the room and locked eyes with her target, a predatory smile slowly forming on her lips.
Here we go. Rey thought to herself. Holding her binder tight against her chest as if it would protect her.
'So sorry I ruined your weekend with Ben.' She said with a fake pout.
Rey smiled and waved a hand at Baz, 'No problem. Ben told me all about why he had to work.'
Baz looked taken back. Maybe she had assumed this would be the first time Rey would be hearing this version of events. Rey thanked her lucky stars that Ben had decided to ring her yesterday and they had managed to straighten the whole mess up. Facing Baz unprepared would have been a train wreck.
'Sometimes you just gotta put your nose to that grind stone even though you'd rather be somewhere else you know?' Rey continued scrunching up her nose as she spoke.
Baz's face formed into a scowl and she placed her hands on her hips, 'I hope I'm not the grind stone in this little scenario.'
'I sincerely hope not since I don't want my boyfriend putting his nose anywhere near you.' Rey snapped back.
The two girls stared at each other for a moment. The form room had long since gone quiet, their fellow students foregoing their usual inane chatter about weekend plans and homework fails to listen in on the heated conversation between the two girls.
'Mmm mmm!' A girl from a lower year group who Rey recognised as one of the office helpers appeared in the classroom doorway clearing her throat and struggling to hold a huge bunch of red roses.
Baz's hands flew to her face in surprise, 'These must be from Poe! Or maybe they are from Ben making amends for having to leave early.' She purred glancing at Rey.
Rey felt her jaw tighten. Everything in her body told her to punch the smug grin off Baz's face and she made a step towards her with her fists clenched just as the delivery girl spoke again.
'Actually these are for Rey.' The girl said in a small voice.
Rey turned and looked at her. The girl came forward and held the flowers out towards Rey. She took them, and the girl let out a breath and wiped her brow. 'Phew! Thank you! Those were heavy! Must be expensive. To come in their own glass vase! And the little crystals in the centres are a nice touch! Anyway see ya!'
The girl headed off back to the office. Rey looked down at her flowers. They were exquisite. Rey has never received flowers before. Ever. Ben. These were definitely from Ben. Her heart squeezed in her chest. Then she realised she was missing a sight that would be even more satisfying than the flowers she held in her hands. She glanced at Baz. The girls eyes were bulging out of her face, a face which had now gone decidedly red.
'How...lovely.' She muttered to Rey before returning to her desk.
Rey smirked as she headed to her own seat. Setting the flowers down on the table, she pulled out a little envelope with her name on out of the centre of the arrangement.
'What does the card say?' Rose asked excitedly leaning over in her seat to smell the roses. Rey read the card and had to bite her lip to keep from laughing. She would have loved to have seen the look on the shop assistants face when Ben handed her this note, maybe he even had to recite it to her if he ordered by phone:
Please accept this fucking massive, ridiculously over priced bouquet of 'You can suck it Baz' long stem roses. Don't know why it matters that they have long stems, but there you go. Did I mention I was sorry? Because I am. Really really sorry. xx
Rey slipped the note to Rose who giggled then sighed and held it against her chest before returning it to Rey who placed it gently in her jeans pocket.
She took out her phone careful to keep it concealed under the table and sent a text to Ben:
R: Did I mention recently that I freaking love you?! xx
B: ;-) I take it you got my flowers? xx
R: I did. :-) they are beautiful! Thank You! xx
B: More importantly, what did Baz think of them? xx
R: She is shooting me dagger filled glances as I text so...mission accomplished! xx
B: Excellent. xx
R: She thought they might have been from Poe. :-0 xx
B: I hope she doesn't hold onto that hope, Poe is already on to his next conquest. xx
Rey chewed her lip. She felt kinda bad for Baz. It was never fun being dumped.
Mr Canady entered the room giving them all his usual disdainful once over. Rey rolled her eyes and wondered for the millionth time why anyone who hated teens as much as Canady would decide to go into teaching?
'Mr Canady! Mr Canady!' Baz called out. 'Rey is using her phone!' She said with a point of her perfectly manicured finger.
Mr Canady came towards Rey with a stern look,
'You know the rules, hand it over.' He said gruffly, holding out his palm with a bored expression on his face.
Rey huffed and handed over her phone. On second thoughts, Baz could fend for herself.
Finn strolled into the room, late as usual and eyed Rey's roses with quiet resignation.
'Nice flowers.' He said as he walked past.
Rey looked at Finn and then at Rose.
'Finn!' She called out stopping him in his tracks, 'Have you got a partner for the literary history project yet?'
Rose shot her a panic stricken look, just as Finn shot her a hopeful one.
'No, do you want to...?'
'Great!' Rey interrupted him. 'I have a partner but Rose is in need of one. You'd be a real hero!'
Finn looked disappointed for a moment but quickly recovered,
'Erh, yeah sure!' Finn agreed as Rose tried to melt Rey with her gaze.
'You two should probably meet up over lunch to compare notes.' Rey suggested, ignoring Rose's laser beam eyes.
'Sure,' Finn agreed. 'I don't know how much use my 'notes' will be, but you're really good at that class aren't you Rose? Didn't you get a 'A' on your last essay?'
Rose gaped at him, 'Yes, I...I did.'
'I'm in safe hands then.' Finn said with a wink and Rey pressed her lips together to keep from laughing while Rose looked like she was going to spontaneously combust.
'I don't know if I want to kiss you or throttle you.' Rose whispered as Finn went to find a seat.
'I love you too bestie!' Rey said with a sickly sweet smile.
Ben called on her way home from school and she filled him in as to why she had been awol for most of the day.
'Jees, she really seems to have it in for you.'
'I know!' Rey whined.
'Poor baby.' Ben said in a sympathetic voice that made Rey quiver.
'Yes poor me, going home to me big house, where I'm going to be all alone. With no one to comfort me.'
Ben groaned, 'You know I would be there is a second if I could!'
Rey giggled, 'Calm down! I'm just messing with you, I know you would be here if you were able.'
'You know I do have some vacation days saved up.'
Rey felt her heart speed up,
'Really? Don't you toy with me Solo!'
Ben chuckled, 'I'm not! Maybe its time that I took some holiday leave.'
Rey danced around the corner to her house, 'When? I need exact dates!' She stopped dead and almost dropped her phone when she saw Ben leaning against her front door.
'How about right now?' Ben said with a smirk as he hung up his phone.
Okay Rey. Be cool. Be cool. Nope. Screw that.
Rey squealed and ran towards the house, 'What are you doing here?' She cried.
'I've got a lot of making up to do, figured I had better start now, Oof!'
Rey was small but Ben had not been prepared for her to throw her full body weight at him and the full frontal assault winded him and knocked him off balance for a moment. He quickly recovered and dug his fingers into her ass cheeks so he could lift her up allowing her to wrap her legs around his waist as she wrapped her arms around his neck.
'This is just a shot in the dark, but I'm thinking you're glad to see me?' He said.
Rey kissed him on the end of his nose then nuzzled it with her own, 'Ecstatic. Come in, my Mom is on the long shift until the wee small hours of the morning.'
Ben slowly lowered her back down to the floor, 'I booked a hotel room, I didn't want to presume...' He trailed off, rubbing the back of his neck.
Rey gave him a look that told him exactly what she thought of that plan and reached up on her toes to pull his neck down so their lips met once more.
'Presume away.' She said pointedly as she pulled away to unlock the door, then took his hand and led him inside.
'Can I get you anything?' Rey asked as she pulled off her shoes and hung up her backpack.
Just you. Ben though, 'No. I'm fine.' He settled for instead.
'I can't believe you're here! How did you get here? When did you leave? I nearly died when I saw you leaning against my door!' Rey chatted happily as she shrugged off her jacket.
Ben rubbed at his temples, 'So many questions. Can we sit down?'
'Sure!.' Rey beamed at him.
God there was that smile again. Remember she is a virgin Ben. Go slowly.
They sat down and Rey tucked her feet up under her body.
'I'm so happy to see you.' She said and then he face fell. 'The last time I saw you, I thought perhaps my heart was going to break in two.'
Urgh. He was such a dickhead for making her feel like that. Fuck going slowly. He thought to himself. He reached out for her putting his hands around her waist and pulling her towards him so that she settled on his knee with her legs straddling his thighs. He wrapped his arms around her and pulled her close to his chest.
'I'm so sorry Rey.' He said.
'Its okay.' She said as she lay her head on his shoulder and sighed.
'If I had known you were there, things would have been different.' he said rubbing her back.
Rey lifted her head and looked up at him with wide eyes,
'What would you have done? If you had known I was there?'
Ben reached forward and cupped her cheek with his hand locking his fingers behind her neck,
'I would have kissed you like this.' He said, pulling her forward and pressing their lips together. Rey moaned against his mouth as he teased her with his tongue. He pulled away in order to gauge her reaction. She swayed a little with her eyes closed and licked her top lip.
'Then what?' She asked her words almost a whisper.
'I have some ideas.' Ben smiled and cupped her ass, he jerked her forward suddenly and her eyes popped open as she let out a little gasp and gripped his shoulders for support. Her lay his head against the back of the sofa and she looked down at his face, running a hand over his hair.
'Ben.' She said softly.
'Yeah?'
'We can do whatever you want but don't hurt me again. I might act tough, but when it comes to you? My defences don't work. My walls go mushy and my heart…..my heart cant take another hit.'
Ben lifted his head and moved his hands to cradle her face.
'I won't Rey. I mean it when I say I love you.' Somehow saying the words to her face to face made them more real and Ben felt a desperate need to have Rey there and then. To take her in his arms and show her how much he loved her. He wanted to brand her, to make her his. He wanted her to want him only which was crazy considering how long they had known each other, but no crazier than how they had started this whole little affair in the first place he mused.
Rey leaned forward and pressed a chaste kiss to his lips,
'I love you too.' She said softly. That was all he needed to hear. Without another word Ben rose up from the sofa and carried her up the staircase. Rey pressed soft kisses to his lips and cheeks as he carried her.
'That one.' Rey said pointed to her bedroom and Ben kicked open the door. Rey giggled then.
'Caveman.' She teased.
Ben grinned and threw her down onto the bed. Silently relieved that she had a double. Rey yelped and then laughed as he threw himself on top of her.
'Well you wanted a caveman.' He said.
'I just want you.' She said wrapping her arms around his neck once more. They kissed slowly, Ben trying to show restraint though his body begged him to increase the speed. In the end it was Rey who took the lead, sitting up and peeling off her vest top to reveal a black lace bra. She looked down at him through her hair. He knew that look. She was vulnerable and unsure. Searching for approval. He sat up and came towards her taking her breasts in his hands. His palms engulfed them completely. She hissed in a breath at the contact. He looked directly into her eyes and uttered,
'Rey, you're beautiful.'
She leaned towards him and he captured her lips once more.
Ben worked his mouth down her chin and throat. Rey tilted her head to give him better access. Heat pooled between her legs and an ache started to form in the pit of her stomach. Ben worked his way down her chest to her breasts, his hands snaked up her back and unhooked her bra with ease. Keeping his eyes on hers, he slid the straps gently down her arms. He flung the bra onto her bedroom floor without giving it a glance, unable to take his eyes off her newly revealed chest. Rey's breath caught in her throat as Ben's mouth tugged at her left nipple pulling it into his mouth and swirling his tongue around the sensitive nub. He moved onto the other breast and Rey felt herself grow wet between her legs. She sunk her hands into his hair. She idly wondered how much practise Ben had had to perfect that particular skill but pushed the thought away, not wanting to ruin the experience with silly jealous musings.
Ben guided her down onto the bed and kissed her again. Her nipples rubbed against the soft cotton of his t-shirt and she found herself aching to feel the skin underneath the thin material. As if he had read her mind, Ben pulled back and lifted his t-shirt over his head in one quick move and she was reminded once more how sculpted Ben's body was. He lunged back towards her, pressing their bodies together once more as if he couldn't stand for them to be parted for more than a moment. He settled between her thighs and Rey could feel a substantial bulge rubbing against her jeans. The friction caused her to moan out loud.
'Pants off.' She managed to mumble and without taking his mouth from hers, Ben began unfastening her jeans. He ripped them from her legs in one swift movement.
'Yours too.' She said with a lift of her eyebrow as he started to make his way back to her. He smirked and got up off the bed. She watched as he undid his fly and lowered his pants. Drinking in his manhood once more, Rey wondered again how she was going to be able to accommodate something of that size?
He crawled back onto the bed running a hand down between her breasts, over her stomach and down to her panties. She pulled in a short sharp breath and swallowed hard as his hand came in contact with the thin fabric of her underwear.
'So wet.' He said, almost to himself. He hooked his thumbs into her waist band and looked up to her eyes, waiting for her permission. Her mouth dry, she managed to nod at him and he slowly pulled the panties down her legs. Before discarding of them completely, he brought them up to his nose and breathed in. Rey's mouth fell open. His boldness both shocked and aroused her simultaneously.
'Fuck.' He said out loud. 'So good. You're like a drug baby.'
There was that word baby again. It did things to her insides.
He came towards her, his eyes locked between her thighs, Rey lifted her foot and placed it on his shoulder stilling him.
'Wait.' She said. 'I think I want to try something new this time.' She said with a slow smile.
'What did you have in mind?' Ben asked his fingers curling around her leg as he turned his head to kiss her ankle, making her shiver.
'I told you I wanted to taste you next time.' She said.
Ben's eyes widened, 'Are you sure?' He asked.
'Positive.' She said sitting up. Ben stood and lowered his briefs. His cock sprung free and Rey eyed it with lust and a healthy degree of trepidation.
'Wow.' She said moving towards him. 'You're so big.'
Ben groaned at her words, 'God Rey, touch me….please.' He pleaded. She kneeled on the bed in front of where he stood and reached out with her hands. She stroked his length gently with her fingers, almost forgetting that she had a job to do. Just being curious and wanting to learn. She ran her hands around and over and along his cock and balls, pulling back his delicate skin to reveal the smooth head underneath, running her finger over the slit and gently massaging the soft surrounding skin between her fingers and thumb.
'Is this okay?' She asked stealing a glance at his face. Ben was looking down at her with a rapacious gaze. He was panting hard. Rey felt a shudder pass through her body. Power. She had power over this giant hulk of a man. She felt more turned on than ever. She gently took his balls in one hands and run her other hand up and down his shaft. Ben hissed in a breath and threw back his head.
'Oh God Rey. So good.' He murmured.
She watched his stomach muscles tense as he reached for her hair, burying his hands within the soft curls. She leaned forward and gently licked the tip of his cock. Ben's whole body jerked in response, his head tipped back and he let out a throaty groan. Rey smiled. She was definitely going to do that again.
Fucking hell. Ben was starting to have doubt about Rey being a virgin as she had claimed. Every touch, every look, every breath she took, had him straining to stay in position and not jump on top her and bury himself deep within her. This girl was something else. When her tongue came in contact with his cock he had almost lost it. Seconds later, she leaned forward and took him as far into her mouth as she could. Just as she had said she would. The feeling of her soft wet lips wrapped around his throbbing dick had him gasping for air. It was too much. He was already so close. She was so small, everything about her was so tiny and yet Ben felt her everywhere, on his skin and inside it. She was like a force of nature, spreading over and through him. Making him hers, claiming him.
'Rey.' He breathed out reverently.
Rey started to slide her mouth up and down his length. She looked up at him with wide innocent eyes. He didn't know how he knew but he could tell what she wanted. What she needed him to say.
'Good girl, my good girl.' He praised, running a hand gently over her hair.
Seemingly satisfied with his response, Rey rewarded him by picking up the pace and Ben soon found himself hurtling towards a breath-stealing climax. Then he started to worry that Rey wasn't prepared for what came next.
'Rey, I'm…..so close…..' He panted. 'You don't have to…..You can use your hand if you want.' He stammered.
Rey looked up at him briefly and shook her head, her mouth still firmly wrapped around his dick. She sucked harder concentrating her efforts on his sensitive tip and Ben spilled forward into her mouth, his body trembling as his knees almost give way underneath him. He felt Rey's tongue circle his cock, cleaning him as his body pulsed with residual pleasure. Then she pulled away from him and swallowed with a pleased smile.
'It is salty!' She said a delighted look.
Ben looked down at her. His beautiful little weirdo who picked him out of a magazine. How could he want anyone else? his eyes focused on her thighs, they were slick with the evidence of her own arousal. Ben licked his lips and despite having just came, his cock twinged.
'My turn.' He growled, placing his hands either side of her still kneeling body, and leaning over her. Rey lay down and let him part her thighs. She was soaking wet. Ben ran a finger gently over her. She hissed and arched on the bed. He pulled his finger away and put it to his mouth.
'Sweet.' He said moving forward to press his mouth to her clit.
'Oh God.' She exhaled.
It was long until she was panting hard, biting her lip and rising her back off the bed.
'I'm close, real close.' She whimpered.
'Hi Sweetie!' The call from downstairs had them both stop dead.
'Its my mother!' Rey hissed frantically.
'Shit.' Ben said. 'What should we do?'
'Um, I don't know ask her to join in? What do you think we should do! Get your clothes!'
They managed to dress as best they could and when her mother entered the room, they were both sitting on the bed looking decidedly guilty.
'Rey, I got off early, so….oh! Hi Ben!' He mother said with a surprised grin. Ben waved casually at her, seemingly completely unaffected by the situation they had found themselves in. She looked at Rey as if to say, what's going on here.
'Erh, Ben just stopped by! It was a surprise visit. We've just been ahh, talking.' Rey said fully aware that her entire blood supply currently resided in her face.
'I see.' Qira said. Her face told Rey she didn't believe a word her daughter had said, but then she was old enough to have boys in her room and she was old enough to have sex with them if she wanted to, she just didn't want her mother walking in while the sex was still going down because awkward much?
'Well, I'll leave you to it, try to keep it down.' She said with a sly smile and a sharp wink. Rey groaned and put her head in her hands.
Ben sighed next to her, 'Well…do you want to go out for something to eat?'
'Yes please.' Rey mumbled against her palms.
