Ch 11

SPOV

His arms wrapped around my body, roaming across my back as mine snaked around his neck. God, he was so warm. He tasted divine and I couldn't get enough of him. I traced his lips with my tongue, teasing and sucking them. He leaned closer, his mouth trying to capture mine again, and I teased him a few times before I allowed his lips back to meet me once more. I felt his hands move down to my waist, squeezing and kneading the bare skin of my back there. Good god, this man could kiss. I never wanted him to stop. I felt his hands trail down and squeeze my ass gently, yet passionately as his lips moved on to my neck and realized that yeah, I did want to stop kissing him. Just so I could experience everything else he had to offer.

He began chanting my name softly in between kisses. His lips brushed against my jaw, my cheek, my neck. Sookie. Sookie. Sookie. My name had never sounded sexier then when it was coming from him.

"Eric, bedroom," I managed to say, and before I knew it he had pulled me close and lifted me to his chest, crossing back into my room from the balcony. I managed to kick off my shoes before we got to the chaise. Eric set me down gently next to it and looked down at me, his blue eyes absolutely hot with passion for me even in the low light. There was absolutely no point in hoping my thong would make it out of here alive.

I reached up and plucked the crown from his head, tossing it across the room. I never took my eyes off of his, and we both smirked when we heard the crown knock against my desk. I'll just clean that up later...

I had a brief moment of panic when neither of us moved. I have an insanely hot man who knows how to kiss, and certainly knows a lot more than that, standing in my bedroom with a fierce hardon pressed into my hip. Normally, I would never have found myself in a situation such as this but I had come to the realization that the old me just never got to have any fun and dammit, the new me would.

I was about to pounce him when he spoke, "Sookie, I've..." he started. I cut him off by placing my fingers across his lips.

"No talking. We can talk later. Right now I just want to feel you," I said as I reached up to my neck and pulled the knot loose on my halter-top. I pulled the silky material up over my head, exposing the lacy black strapless bra underneath. I flung the top in the vicinity of the bed and reached out to pull off Eric's jacket. His eyes had been on mine the entire time, and he stood still as if he was unsure of what to do next. He didn't protest, so I took it as permission to proceed. The look of hunger and lust filled his face so completely and it made me incredibly hot to know he was showing such restraint and allowing me to set the pace. I purred at him as I pulled the jacket away, and pressed myself against his chest.

That was all it took. Eric grabbed the jacket and tossed it aside while his other arm came around my waist and pulled me even closer to him. So much for that restraint. He brought his head to my neck and began kissing his way down as he lowered me onto the lounge. His mouth was like a lifeline to me, I couldn't get enough. I was propped against the one arm of the lounge and Eric had lowered himself to his knees beside me on the floor. He was the perfect height to lavish my entire body with warm, wet, passionate affections and I sure wasn't going to stop him.

I ran my fingers through his gorgeous blond hair, and he groaned as I pulled it lightly. His hands were on my torso, one behind unhooking my bra and the other pulling it free from my body, and I watched as he stared intently at my bare breasts like he had never seen any before. "So perfect, so beautiful," I heard him mutter before he dove into my cleavage face first with a growl. I gasped as an excited laugh escaped me. My arms enveloped his head, holding him to my chest as his mouth found the already hard nipple of my right breast. He was like heaven on me. He suckled, and nipped, and pulled until I felt ready to burst. His hands massaged while his mouth tortured. I couldn't stand it any longer; I wanted my mouth on him.

I threaded my fingers through his hair once more and pulled, this time bringing his face away from my chest and up to my mouth. He managed to bring himself onto the chaise and sit beside my half naked and extremely aroused body, leaning over me.

As I kissed at his jaw line and his neck, my hand found the buttons of his shirt, and set to work freeing him of it. I could feel him squeezing my breasts with one hand, his other bracing himself above me on the chaise. Why weren't we on the bed? I briefly thought. No matter, it makes no difference where we are as long as I get his damn shirt off. Oh yes, Sookie Stackhouse had turned a new leaf.

I was over eagerly pulling his shirt out from the waistband of his pants as I had his earlobe in my mouth. God, I loved earlobes. They were perfect for sucking and nibbling and licking. His were delicious. I moaned lightly as I released it to trail my way to his chest as I pulled back the shirt. I felt his hand brushing down my stomach towards my ridiculously unnecessary skirt when I heard someone clear their throat.

EPOV

I had just completely lost any chance of coming out of this looking like a sane and rational person. I had to go and be honest. Normally, I could lie to anyone, but I found it impossible with the blond in front of me. I had just admitted to her that I felt something too. What it was, I had yet to discover but I knew I wanted to explore the feeling.

I wanted to say more, but before I could explain that I had no clue what it was she told me to shut up. No one ever tells me to shut up. I was confused, but at the same time her attitude with me was so fucking hot I couldn't be irritated with it. Then she went and said the two words that could not have been any sweeter music to my ears.

Kiss me.

I was undone. I was lost. I knew in that moment that I could love this woman. I think I said as much before I was on her.

Her lips felt just as I remembered; only this time they kissed me back. In fact, they down right teased me and I loved every lick and nip and tug. I could feel her smile as I reclaimed her teasing dirty little mouth. I couldn't touch her enough and I felt my hands roaming her soft warm skin. God she felt like fire in my arms, like she would burst into flame at any moment and take me with her. That tiny waist, that perfect ass, those soft heaving breasts pressing up against my chest. Fuck. If all she had wanted was kissing, she was getting a whole lot more from me if I had any say. I moved to her neck and her smell drove me insane! I wanted to lick her and fuck her and rub all over her. My thoughts immediately turned to bending her over the railing and taking her. No, no. She was worth much more than a quick fuck on the balcony. That couldn't be what she would want our first coupling to be. I envisioned taking her in my bed, where no other woman had been. Fuck. I had it bad for her.

"Eric, bedroom," her sweet voice called to me, thick with want and ragged from her breathing. Fuck yes. I had carried her in and set her beside a chair in her room before I could even realize I had done it. I could hear the music and laughter from the other room and remembered that there were 25 people on the other side of that door. I wanted Sookie - so bad - but I wanted to make her scream my name. I wanted to be the only one to hear her scream it as I made her come. Again, my rationalizations astounded me. I would just have to get over it and realize that obviously my subconscious was trying to tell me that I felt things for Sookie and all previous scandalized behavior was unacceptable with her.

She took the crown from my head and tossed it aside as I mentally cursed myself. I decided that we could not ravage each other here. Not while there were others present. Not like this. I wanted her, oh so bad, but she deserved better. We hadn't even been on a date for fucks sake! She was much more special than a party fuck.

I started to tell her this, but she shooshed me. Woman fucking shooshed me!

"No talking. We can talk later. Right now I just want to feel you," she said. I felt my resolve slip the fuck away as she took off her top. Good god, her breasts were practically spilling from the lacy bra she had on under it. They were begging to be freed. I fought with myself as Sookie pulled off my jacket. She didn't seem drunk. She didn't seem like she wanted to stop. I couldn't help myself any longer. I'm so weak...in the very best way.

I pulled her to me, flinging my jacket away from us. I had to see those breasts, had to taste them. I laid her down as I kissed her neck and kneeled on the floor. She looked like an angel laying there on the chaise, like she was about to be painted into a masterpiece. I felt her hands running through my hair and pulling it. God, she was so fucking hot and she just had to go and pull my hair. I was done for. I unhooked her bra and pushed it aside, revealing the two most beautiful and flawless breasts I have ever seen. I couldn't help myself and dove into them face first. They were tender and firm, utterly on fire. I felt her arms around my head, cradling me to her chest and turned my mouth to take in her nipple. I could have sucked that nipple for hours, but Sookie had other ideas. She pulled my hair again, damn that woman, and brought my face to hers. I rose to sit with her, and as she kissed me she began to unbutton my shirt.

I couldn't keep my hands off her. I squeezed and caressed the smooth skin of her breast and stomach. However it was she knew what drove me wild I'll never figure out, but Sookie's mouth closed around my earlobe and I swear I grew even harder. I had to have her. My hand trailed down to free her from her skirt when she completely froze. I thought for a split second that she didn't want me to, but then I heard a familiar snicker coming from the direction of the door.

"Sookie, you make the best Tom Collins' I've ever tasted, and well, I need another," Pam said in the most innocent voice. Fucking Pam, that cock blocking bitch!

"Do you mind, Pamela?" I said to her, trying to shield a very embarrassed looking Sookie from her as best as I could.

"Come back to the party, darlings. We're all having so much fun," said as she began to turn and go back out the door. At the last moment she poked her head back in and said, "By the way Sookie, your breasts are fabulous," before another snicker escaped her and she closed the door.

I looked down at Sookie. She had her hands covering her face and she was laughing causing said fabulous breasts to bounce beautifully. At least she wasn't mad.
