IN THE GUESTHOUSE

Jane paced nervously in her bedroom. Ashley had gone downstairs to make her something to eat, but she really wasn't that hungry. She opened her bedroom window for some air, playing with her lower lip as she walked around the room. She had taken Connor's advice and talked to her mother when she had come to her in her dream, but it still wasn't enough. She needed more. She gasped when she heard a noise coming from the window, but she quickly started laughing.

Josh stared at the open window and decided to take his chance on it being one of the few empty ones left around the place. He walked over and tested the trellis that was nailed against the side of the house before climbing up it and into the open window. He lost his balance halfway through and fell onto the carpet of the room, sprawled out and debating whether he felt like bothering to move or not.

'Are you okay?' Jane questioned with a giggle.

Josh groaned. He slowly pulled himself up onto his feet, muttering under his breath, feeling a little dizzy.

Jane shook her head, gently taking his arm and leading him over to her bed. She pushed him down and sat down beside him.

'You look new…' she commented, 'who are you? What's your name? And the Million Dollar Question...why did you just sneak into my bedroom?'

Josh groaned again, putting his hands to his head.

'I'm not new…' he muttered, 'Em asked me to move in a few weeks ago. My name's Josh, but most people call me Scud, and I thought this room would be empty.'

He fell on his back, fighting the urge to curl up into a ball. The pain in his heart was physical. He felt like he had gone a dozen rounds or more with a professional fighter.

Jane sighed. Without even thinking, she crawled up next to the new boy and gently rested her head on his chest.

'So you're Em's ex…' she said softly, 'she's told me stories about you. Good ones, I promise. She said you are one of the best things that ever happened to her.'

Josh snorted.

'It's too fucking bad that things changed…' he said with a sneer, 'she just used me. She fucking used me. She may as well have ripped my fucking heart right out of my chest and ate it in front of me while I died. That's what it fucking feels like.'

His eyes burned as they filled with tears that threatened to spill over onto his cheeks.

'I gotta get outta this place…' he growled, 'away from her…'

Jane sucked in a shaky breath. She reached up to Josh's face, gently wiping his tears with her thumb.

'Talk to her after you've had a chance to calm down,' she suggested, 'you don't think clear when you're upset. No one does.'

She held up her arm to show him the bandage she wore.

'I would know. This shit is gonna cost me my friends and family. It's a fucking addiction, and I know I need to stop.'

Josh grabbed her arm, being careful not to grab the bandaged part. Without thinking, he placed a gentle kiss on the bandage.

'You shouldn't feel like you have to do something like that,' he said, 'no one should be that alone.'

He sighed, letting go of her and pushing her gently to the side. He sat up on the side of the bed and put his head in his hands with his elbows on his knees.

'I'm not gonna talk to Em. There's no point. This was the final nail in my coffin.'

He took a shaky breath of his own.

'I'm done.'

Jane shook her head at the words she had been wanting to say herself, surprised to find that she no longer wanted to be done. She gently pulled Josh's head up so that she could straddle his lap. She cupped his face in her hands, her eyes searching his as she found herself slowly leaning in toward him. Before she knew it, her lips were crushed against his and a low moan of longing was rumbling deep in her chest.

Josh's mind reeled with the woman started kissing him. His heart leaped into his throat and he wrapped his arms around her, holding her tight against him as he returned her kiss with just as much need.

Jane moaned as she felt Josh's mouth shape itself around hers. She slowly began to rock her hips, hot tears trickling down her cheeks. Sex with Michael had never felt this good. He always wanted her to please him. He didn't care about pleasing her. But Josh...she could tell he was different just by the way he kissed her.

Josh whimpered as he felt his boxers tighten around his growing erection. He knotted his fingers deep into her black hair, deepening the kiss as he rocked his hips up against her. He didn't bother hiding how much his body was reacting to her, sensing that this was something they both needed.

Jane growled as she felt Josh's fingers in her hair and his erection pressing against her pussy through her panties. She pushed him back against her pillows and reached down to unfasten his jeans. She didn't care that her father was asleep in the next room. She needed this. Josh needed this. She wasn't going to let anything stop them.

Josh moaned, taking his hands out of Jane's hair and grabbing the bottom of the gown she wore. He pulled it up and yanked it off of her, moving his hands to caress her breasts as he leaned up and started kissing along the side of her neck.

Jane moaned at the feeling of his warm lips on her neck. She slowly pulled his jeans and boxers off his hips, freeing his erection. She lifted herself up, holding his face against her neck, and rubbed the head of his cock along her pussy to guide him toward her opening.

Josh growled lightly, scraping his teeth along her neck as he moved his hands down. He grabbed her hips and pulled her down as he slid his cock up inside of her. He held her in place, not moving for several moments, wanting to give her time to adjust to him. He licked along her collarbone, dipping his tongue into the hollow at the base of her throat.

Jane gasped as she felt Josh fill her. She began to rock her hips, tangling her fingers in his hair as she rode him. She yanked his head away from her neck, growling as she sank her teeth deep into the flesh of his neck.

Josh cried out as he felt Jane's teeth break the skin of his neck. He held her head, groaning at the pleasure of the bite and her warmth wrapped around his cock. He lifted his hips, thrusting deeper inside of her, pressing his free hand against the small of her back.

Jane grinned against Josh's neck, matching his thrusts, squeezing his cock gently with her inner walls as she rode him. She wrapped her arms around his back and scraped her nails down his skin as he rolled them over.

Josh groaned as he felt himself slide in deeper. He grabbed Jane's legs and placed them up on his shoulders as he began to slam himself deeper inside her.

'God…' he thought to himself, 'she's so tight!'

He looked down into eyes that were so different from Em, shocked to find that he was actually enjoying himself. He never thought he would enjoy sex with anyone but Em. He'd had dalliances before, but none of them had actually made him feel something. None of them had been like this. He leaned down and sucked one of her nipples into his mouth, swirling his tongue around.

Jane's head fell back as Josh propped her legs up on top of his shoulders, and she writhed in pleasure, pulling him in as deep as she could. She met his thrusts, looking up to find him staring down at her. She blushed, meeting his eyes as she thrust with him. She realized she had been right as he took her breast into his mouth and she gasped in pleasure. He was nothing like Michael. Nothing at all.

Josh smirked against Jane's skin at her blush. He gently scraped his teeth along her nipple, his hair falling in curtains around his eyes. He could feel her walls tightening around him, and he could sense that she was close.

Jane's eyes slowly began to roll into the back of her head as she felt her stomach tighten. Her skin flushed as her body got hotter, a thin sheen of sweat breaking out over her skin.

'Oh, Josh…' she murmured, gasping as she orgasmed harder than she ever had before. She wrapped her arms around his shoulders, holding him as close as possible as her inner walls tightened around his cock as her body orgasmed.

Josh growled against Jane's breast, his eyes rolling back in his head as her orgasm pushed him over the edge. He bit down on her breast as he started pumping harder, his cum shooting out as he had his own orgasm. He collapsed on top of her, quickly moving over to the side, as he gasped for breath, his head spinning.

'Fuck…' he murmured.

Jane laughed softly as she rolled onto her side and snuggled gently into Josh's side. She had never thought she would ever enjoy sex. It had always been just something she did to keep Michael happy, but it was different with Josh. He had climbed through her bedroom window and changed her entire world in just an hour's time.
