So I don't know how long my chapter breaks haven't been working but it looks like pretty much the entire duration of this story and maybe my other Jessica/Ryan story. So hopefully I got that fixed. When I change scenes or situations I've been using asterisks (***) to break the chapter up. So now I have to go in and manually add then after I upload the chapter, which kind of stinks but oh well.

Please enjoy this next chapter in the life of Horatio and Arianna! :D Just a side note there's going to be frequent adult themes from here on out, so you've been forewarned.

Forbidden Fruit

Ryan watched as his aunt hurried out of the fingerprint lab just as Horatio walked in. He could see the distress on her face and wondered what was going through her head. He walked out into the hall and followed Arianna into one of the layout rooms.

"Hey Arianna," he casually said, "How's it going?"

Arianna jumped slightly at the sound of his voice. "Fine, everything's fine."

"Are you sure?" Ryan inquired.

"Yes, why wouldn't I be ok?"

"Well you just booked it out of the fingerprint lab like a bat out of hell when Horatio walked in." Ryan said, "Is everything alright at home?"

"Yes everything's fine, I'm just really busy today. You know with that shooter and all."

Ryan nodded his head, still not completely convinced. "Alright, well if and when you decide to break for lunch give me a call. Jess and I were thinking of getting Chinese. Just let me know if you're in."

Arianna smiled at him and watched him walk away. She sighed and shook her head. She didn't think she was being that obvious that something was bothering her.

It had been almost a week since Arianna and Horatio had had sex, and she was all flustered about it. She felt tense anytime Horatio was around and couldn't stand being in the same room with him for more than a few moments. She didn't feel entirely uncomfortable around him; it was just the tension she felt when she was around him. Arianna could just feel the desire they had for each other.

Lunch rolled around and Arianna found Jessica eating alone in the break room. She smiled at Arianna and held out a take out box for her.

"Ryan says he's sorry he can't join us," Jessica said, "Horatio hauled him off to a scene."

"Is it the shooter again?" Arianna asked as she sat down next to Jessica.

They ate together in silence for a while before Jessica spoke.

"Ok, tell me his name." She said with a smirk.

Arianna nearly choked on her food. "Excuse me?" she gasped.

"Well you clearly met someone." Jessica said, "I'm kind of interested in hearing about him."

Arianna looked at her skeptically before she turned back to her food. "I don't see why it's any interest to you."

"Ok Arianna, here's the deal." Jessica said, pushing her food to the side. "You met someone and I can see you're just itching to see him again but you're nervous. Something is holding you back from him. I don't know why you're so winged out about him, but you just need to jump on it. Take my word for it, I've lived through the same experience. Everyday I came into work and I stared at Ryan and just wanted to jump him right there in the lab. Finally one day I took a chance and it was the best decision I ever made."

"What did you do?" Arianna asked, somewhat fascinated.

Jessica smirked at her. "He was playing keep away with my test results, demanding I give him something in return. So I kissed him. Then everything just kind of fell into place after that and we decided to be in a relationship." She gave Arianna a warm smile. "I don't know what your situation is but I think you just need to take that chance. You're clearly being driven crazy by this guy. You obviously want him."

Arianna looked at her and couldn't help but laugh. "You really think I should go after this guy, without even knowing anything about him?"

Jessica laughed and slapped her hand onto the table. "I was right! There is a man!"

Arianna's ears burned red and she shook her head at Jessica. "You remind me a lot of someone."

"Let me guess," Jessica said as she laughed, "His name begins with an H and ends with oratio Caine."

Arianna laughed and smiled at her. "You guessed that one right."

Arianna watched from the doorway as Horatio cooked dinner with Carli. She had sent the nanny home and the three of them were alone, like they were every night. Arianna watched him as he showed Carli how to cook and when to add ingredients so that nothing burned. He had taken off his suit jacket and was wearing a white button down shirt. Arianna could see his muscle moving and flexing under the material and she felt her heart thud inside her ribs.

Dinner was quiet with the exception of Carli's chatter about what she had learned at school. Arianna thought about what Jessica had told her. She watched Horatio as he smiled at her daughter and affectionately acknowledged everything she said as if it was the most important thing he had heard that day.

"Mommy!" Carli screeched and hit Arianna in the side of her head with her spoon. "Mommy wake up!"

Arianna snapped back to reality and looked at Carli and Horatio. "Sorry, I was thinking."

"About the cases today?" Horatio asked.

"Yes," Arianna quickly lied, "It's just been on my mind a lot."

"I see," Horatio said, "You've been very distracted the last few days. Try thinking less about it. If you bring work home too much it can really have a terrible effect on your home life."

Arianna gave him a weak smile and continued to pick at her food. "That's good advice."

Arianna thought about Jessica's advice she had given Arianna during lunch again. "Maybe that's advice worth taking, too."

Arianna and Horatio were finishing cleaning up the kitchen after dinner while Carli ran upstairs to play before bed. Arianna leaned across the counter of the breakfast bar as she continued to wipe down the surface. She felt Horatio's eyes burning into her and she glanced up. Horatio quickly diverted his eyes and turned away. Arianna smirked to herself and straightened up. She sauntered over to Horatio and leaned against the counter, staring him down.

"Were you just looking down my shirt?" she playfully teased.

"No, of course not," Horatio said, "That would be rude." He looked at her and darted his eyes away as a blush formed on his cheeks and a smile crept across his face.

Arianna advanced towards him. "I think you were. You were looking down my shirt."

"I told you, I would never do such a thing." Horatio playfully retorted.

Arianna smiled seductively at him. She ran her hands across his chest and down his sides. She rested her hands on his hips and gently pressed hers against his. She could feel how hard he already was. "You know," Arianna said, removing her hands, "If you wanted to see all you had to do was ask." She carefully and slowly started unbuttoning her white blouse, revealing an ivory lace bra beneath.

Horatio gasped quietly as he felt the blood rush to his groin and his pants tighten. He placed each of his hands on the counter on either side of Arianna's body. His grip tightened as she continued to unbutton her shirt. He leaned in and ghosted his lips across her neck. He nipped at her collar bone and moaned when he felt her palm him through his pants. Horatio ran his hands down her sides and cupped her ass in his hands. He lifted her onto his hips and carried her over to the table.

Horatio's lips crashed against Arianna's as he pushed her down onto the table. She wrapped her legs around his waist and felt her skirt hike up to her hips. She moaned when Horatio's still pant encased erection rubbed against her heated desire. His hands roamed across her body as his tongue invaded her mouth. He pinched at her nipples through the thin fabric of her bra and Arianna cried out his name.

Horatio's hands flew to his belt and he tore his pants open. He reached beneath her skirt and pulled her panties off, tossing them to the floor. Arianna moaned into his mouth as Horatio filled her in one thrust. He paused for a moment and Arianna closed her eyes and felt his heart beat inside her. Then he was moving again and Arianna's attention was drawn else where.

Horatio's thrusts were quick and hard. He grunted slightly with effort and Arianna moaned and lifted her hips against his. It was just as amazing as the first time.

"Harder Horatio!" Arianna cried out, "Please give it to me harder!"

Horatio didn't respond. Instead he leaned down and bit her neck as he began thrusting harder.

Arianna was taking in quick, short breathes. Her nerves were tingling and her body ached for Horatio. She dug her nails into his shoulders and Horatio felt the pinch of pain even through his shirt. He thrusted hard and fast, his breathing was labored and his chest hurt.

Arianna climaxed first, crying out Horatio's name, but Horatio wasn't ready to quit. He quickly pulled out and flipped Arianna over. He pressed her against the table and entered her from behind. Arianna was bent over the table and was gasping for air as Horatio continued to thrust deep into her. She cried out when he roughly grabbed her breasts and squeezed hard. Her knees buckled slightly, but Horatio kept her standing as her second orgasm overcame her. Horatio quietly moaned her name as he finally climaxed.

They stood there for a moment before Horatio pulled out. He pulled his pants back up and was re-clasping his belt while Arianna straightened out her skirt and buttoned up her shirt.

"Um, where are my panties?" Arianna quietly asked.

"I think I tossed them over there." Horatio said, looking towards the door. They both froze as a small Carli walked in, carrying Arianna's panties.

"Mommy why are your undies in the hall?" Carli inquired.

"I must have dropped them on my way to the laundry room." Arianna quickly lied.

"But I thought you only did laundry on Sundays, today's Wednesday."

"Well sometimes I like to change things up a bit, you know, make life more exciting."

"No you don't, you only do laundry on Sundays." Carli suddenly grabbed her mother's skirt and looked under it. "You aren't wearing any undies anyways. Did these ones fall off?"

"Carli!" Arianna snapped, pulling her skirt back into place, "That's very rude! Come here, you're going to bed right now!" Arianna lifted Carli into her arms grabbed her panties from her daughter. She stumbled and dropped the panties to the floor as she stabilized herself and made sure she didn't drop Carli.

Horatio watched them walk away. He stared at the panties on the floor for a moment. They were made from the same ivory lace material. He walked over and picked them up. He peeked out into the hall and watched Arianna walk up the stairs. He ducked back into the kitchen and stood there for a moment. He pressed the panties to his face and inhaled deeply. He sighed and felt just the slightest twinge in his pants. He stuffed the panties into his pocket and began cleaning off the kitchen table.

Arianna watched Carli sleep next to her. Arianna sat up and then climbed out of bed. She was tired but restless. Her body ached but in a way it had never before. She opened the door and walked down the hall. She stopped outside Horatio's room and listened. She could hear the water in the shower running. The thought of Horatio naked made a pulsating sensation begin between her legs. Arianna stood outside the door. Then she opened the door and walked in.

Horatio rinsed the last of the suds from his body. He stood under the hot spray of water and let the water pound on his sore body. His ears perked up when he heard the bathroom door quietly open. Moments later the door to the shower slid open and a complete nude Arianna was standing there staring at him.

Her eyes were dark with desire and she licked her lips as she took in the sight of Horatio's wet naked body. She stepped into the shower with him and shut the door behind her. She wrapped her arms around his shoulders and kissed him roughly. She forced her tongue into his mouth and Horatio felt himself start to grow hard quickly.

Arianna slid down his body and she knelt before his forming erection. She began lightly kissing and licking the sensitive flesh and Horatio moaned when her warm mouth engulfed his throbbing manhood. She sucked long and deep. Horatio tangled his fingers into her hair as he began to lightly thrust into her mouth.

When Arianna tasted his pre-cum she released him with a light pop. She stood and began kissing him again. Horatio lifted her and pinned her against the wall as he slowly entered her. Arianna moaned loudly and wrapped her legs around his waist. Horatio bit her neck as he began to thrust into her.

Arianna tried to hold herself up as her body kept slipping down the wet tile. She moaned loudly as Horatio hit her sweet spot and her whole body tingled. Every time with Horatio felt so amazing. She had tasted the forbidden fruit and she just had to have more.

Horatio awoke in the morning to warmth of another body against his. He slowly opened his eyes and Arianna's brown hair came into view. He smiled to himself and held her closer to his body and sighed contently. He was tired and sore. He and Arianna had rolled around his bed together almost all night, sharing their bodies in the most intimate way possible.

Horatio closed his eyes and felt himself start to drift off to sleep again. He had no clue what time it was and couldn't remember if he had to work that day. It didn't matter though. He was with Arianna and that's all that mattered in that moment.
