Heavy In Your Arms
Chapter 14:
I turned down the TV volume as I took off my glasses and glanced at the phone smiling brightly. Lauren's face greeted me with a huge smile as Fleur ruffled her hair. I had taken it yesterday as we lounged around the house before Lauren had to work the night shift at the local hospital. She had taken a few shifts for a colleague who was doing her maternity leave and I knew the stress was getting to her.
"Hello there Doctor." I purred into the phone as I heard her sigh.
"Hey beautiful." Lauren whispered and my breath caught as I heard the smile on her voice. "How you doing?"
"I'm good, getting some work done before making some dinner." I sighed happily as I stretched out. "Are you craving anything?"
"Nothing I could mention right now." The blonde drawled and I felt my body tingle with the double meaning of her words.
"Maybe I should catch a cold and get a certain Doctor to make a house call." I teased as she laughed heartily.
"Tamsin?" she joked and I groaned stifling a laugh.
"Of course Tamsin… she's so hot." I bantered as she huffed with a mention of my name warningly.
Jealous Lauren was sexy Lauren that I couldn't deny.
"I wish I could babe." Lauren mentioned and I felt myself melt instantly. "Actually I have disheartening news."
"Uh-oh" I frowned as I could practically see her nodding onto the phone.
"Troublesome news more accurately. I have to stay and cover the next shift since the other Doctor isn't available now." Lauren lamented and I groaned a bit.
I hadn't seen much of the blonde in the past few days because of work and I had wanted to spend time with her before Fleur and I left on our trip that was approaching fast. As much as I craved it I was also a bit scared and couldn't help it. We hadn't been intimate since that first time, we had cuddled a lot and just overall held hands, kissed the whole enchilada except that.
It's not that we didn't want to, I mean the butterflies in my stomach were humongous any time she would touch my neck, kiss my lips… and the way she kissed me, I could swear I had died and gone to heaven. It was perhaps that I had been overwhelmed by emotion the other night while she held me against her while kissed me ever so gently and whispered how lucky she was. I cried, it was out of joy but I cried none-the-less. She made me feel so normal, so human and whole. Lauren and Fleur's love filled me in a way that I couldn't describe and at that moment it just overwhelmed me.
"Baby where'd you go?" I snapped out of my thoughts as her voice reached me.
"I'm just thinking about how much I miss you. That's all." I admitted and she let out a soft sigh.
"I miss you too… listen babe I thought I'd make it but tonight's Fleur's game and I don't know if I will." She explained and I nodded.
"Fleur's game!? I thought she wasn't cleared yet." I smiled excitedly.
"I wanted to surprise you after work, she has been cleared since this morning." Lauren's voice reached me and I sprung into action.
"I'll be there Lau, I'll let her know you had some work to take care of. I'll bring her home with me afterwards so you can take your time." I reassured her.
"Well I have to go, I love you." Lauren mumbled shyly making me grin like a dog.
"I love you too Lauren, be safe," I begged and with that we parted ways.
I let out a sigh with a disbelieving smile geared towards life. I honestly couldn't believe I was here, I was happy. It had been so long since I had given up on the notion of happiness that now it was all surreal. I heard a knock on the doorframe and when I turned I saw Ryan there with a smile.
"You're thinking of the Doctor, I can tell!" he accused and I made a face at him to leave me alone.
"Thank you Captain Obvious, what can I help you with?" I asked with a chuckle.
"I'm bored, my date ditched me…" Ryan groaned and I shook my head.
"We told you she didn't look good." I laughed remembering how Kenzie and I advocated for him to cancel this one. "Shit what time is it?"
"5:40 ish… Almost six" he responded as my eyes grew wide.
"FUCK! Fleur has a game, I have to go or I'll miss puck drop." I ran haphazardly around my office putting my papers away.
"Oh My God! Are you serious!? I'm totally coming with you." He exclaimed and I laughed. "What are her team colours?"
"Luckily for her it's Black and Yellow." I rolled my eyes jogging down the hallway to my room.
"At what time does it start!?" Ryan yelled from his room.
"Six thirty so hurry up we're taking the Skyline and I'm driving." I insisted as he grunted from his room.
I quickly texted Lauren to send me directions to her arena and instructions on how to get in, she also filled me in on the equipment I should grab from the house and where it was. I rushed as I quickly threw off the small v-neck I was wearing and grabbed my favourite jersey throwing it on quickly. It still smelled like Lauren and it brought a huge smile to my face remembering how it hugged her every curve. I quickly ran a brush on my hair and donned Fleur's team hat. Lauren had gotten it for me yesterday since I wanted to come to a game as soon as she was cleared. It had Fleur's number in the back and her nickname 'the flower' on the side. After I quickly finished my makeup I grabbed my keys and rushed out.
"I'll be at Lauren's grabbing Fleur's gear, hurry the fuck up Ryan I took the car, if I'm done and you're not done I'm gone." I warned as I rushed out. I wasn't missing any second of my baby's game.
I peeled out of the driveway nervously as I rounded the block and made my way into Lauren's house and to the basement. I grabbed the gear I needed and threw it over my shoulders spotting a small cooler in the corner. I grabbed that as well and headed upstairs. When I came into the kitchen I saw Ryan with black pants and a yellow UFC t-shirt that matched the shade of my jersey and hat. I chuckled as he handed me a few sports drinks and water bottles from Lauren's fridge and I threw them in the cooler.
"Wrong sport doofus." I warned and he shook his head when he turned to me he had a huge 29 on his cheek and Fleur on the other. "Oh God she's going to love that."
"I thought so too." Ryan smiled widely before dropping some ice on the cooler and grabbing it so I could comfortably carry the gear.
"We gotta hurry." I announced and he nodded.
We piled into the car and I drove like a bat out of hell to the directions of the gps. Ryan gave me a few shortcuts here and there and we were in the arena with time to get Fleur what she needed. Ryan told me he was going to grab a seat while I went to meet Fleur and I nodded feeling the excitement rush through me. I had never felt more like a mother than right now with this simplest task. I guess it was in the end, the want I had myself to see my real mother at one of my games, I had dreamed it time and time again.
I was about to cross into the hallway that led to her locker room like Lauren had instructed when I saw a tall woman tanned woman with curly dark hair and green eyes step into my way. She had a track suit on and a few clipboards in her hand a whistle around her neck. I felt like I had seen her before but couldn't quite place her. I tried to side-step her and she blocked me again.
"Excuse me, but this area is off limits for spectators." Her tone held a coldness that I didn't care for and I let out a sigh knowing this would be a problem.
"I'm just trying to get some equipment to my daughter before it's too late." I explained pointing at my hat.
"I'm sorry but I know Flower's mother, I don't see Doctor Lewis anywhere. I can take her equipment." She stretched her hand out expectantly and I scoffed.
"Listen lady… I don't know who you are-"
"I'm Coach Nadia Karkanis and I certainly don't know who you are. If you want to get that equipment you should give it to me because you're not going through. You're certainly no one's mother here." The coach's words cut me to the bone and as I grit my teeth I handed her the equipment resenting her cocky smile.
I turned after surrendering the equipment not wanting to give this bitch the satisfaction of seeing how much she had gotten to me. I now remembered clearly who she was and it all made sense to me, she was the one sizing Lauren up like prey the first day I came back into Fleur's life. Maybe this was payback for that incident but regardless I wouldn't let it stand, I was also Fleur's mother and especially with her condition I needed access to my daughter at all times.
I bought some drinks at the concession stand to support their fundraising and set out to find Ryan. He had found seats right next to Fleur's offensive net. I gave him his drink as he bounced in his seat full of excitement I could tell he was totally uplifted from being ditched earlier. I heard his phone ringing and gave him a quizzical look as he shut it off.
"Bitch wants to go out now 'cause she changed her mind." He mumbled and I shook my head.
"You gonna leave her hanging now." I teased as Ryan grinned widely at me "I'm not gonna miss Fleur's first game back for the world."
I laughed and we chit chatted about stats and my upcoming trip a bit before we heard the announcement that the game was about to start. We both shared an excited look before we paid attention to the game.
To my surprise the game was fast and skilled from the first faceoff. I knew my girl was skilled but I didn't know if this was one of those leagues that only one or two players are skilled. From the opening shift I could see that this was not the case and they were playing hard fought elite U14 hockey. After an icing call against the other team I saw the coach near us tap Fleur in the back and my heart raced. She took the ice and was talking to her linemate before taking the faceoff when Ryan hollered her name next to me. My girl looked up and as soon as her eyes met mine her smile grew in her beautiful face. She gave me a nod as I returned it with a smile of my own and I could see her getting into game mode.
I could see her posturing up for the face-off and her body was misaligned, I knew she would lose it before they dropped it but her quick hand proved me wrong. She passed the puck to her right winger before zooming down the ice with intense speed. She waited patiently for the puck to cross the blue-line and once on side I could see her establishing position near the goaltender's net. She tapped her stick on the ice as they cycled and as the puck drew near to the tick-tack-toe play they wanted I saw her wind her stick anticipating the pass. As she hit the rubbed puck hard the goalie swallowed it up but not completely so she swamped the net trying to tap it out of his fumbling hold. The whistle went but the girl covering her in the white jersey crossed-checked her a couple of times in the chest.
"Hey!" I heard Ryan mumble before Fleur skated away glaring at the other kid while her coach called them in.
"It's ok Ryan she's got it." I assured him patting his back.
The game continued with that hard pace through the first and second period. A girl from Fleur's team had allowed a turnover and the other team scored in the second period. I could see the bench had kind of lost focus with frustration and anger, the other team was being more physical and using their back checking a lot more. I could tell the coach had tried to get them back in the game but so far hadn't been able to motivate them. The more I watched the game the more I realized she was utilizing the lines wrong and if she didn't change them she might not get the results they all wanted.
The girls had taken the bench before the coach came out, I could see Fleur was sitting with the first line centre girl and an idea popped in my head. I rapidly went down the steps to an opening in the ice as I caught my girl's attention. She hopped over the boards across the ice and came over to me taking her mouth-guard out of her mouth.
"Hey Mom" she smiled "Momma had to work?"
"Good guess, did the coach give you all your things?" I asked inspecting her up and down.
"Yeah thanks for the tape, I got my stick just right. I knew it was you 'cause Momma wouldn't have remembered the tape." She giggled and shoved me a bit and I chuckled.
"Listen I know you guys are frustrated-" I started before she jumped in.
"It's like nothing is going in, like they have our number and even though we're close nothing is going our way." She groaned and I could see the frustration on her beautiful features.
"K, Baby-cakes listen to me." Her smile lit up but she focused on me. "I think your coach should pair you with their first line centre but she seems to be very adamant to stick to the lines for some reason. If I was you, I'd talk to your buddy and see if you guys are willing to get grilled to see if something different gets you a goal."
I could see the wheels turning in her head as her brow furrowed and she nodded slowly understanding what I meant. She ran a hand through her hair a bit before tying it back up and putting her helmet on nodding at me.
"I think I caught your drift Mom, anything else?" Fleur asked now serious in training mode.
"You're off balance in your face-offs so shift those hips, get your centre aligned and your core low so you have strength on those arms to beat the other girl." I advised as she nodded popping her mouth guard in and lowering her helmet on her face.
I held out my fist to her to bump it against mine and she did as her coach passed us by giving me a glare. Calling her name put sternly.
"Be safe!" I called out and Fleur tapped her nose through the cage cutely.
I ran up to my seat once more before the game started as Ryan kept looking at me with a huge smile and a slight chuckle.
"You're absolutely adorable with that kid Bo." He assured me as I blushed shoving him a bit.
The third started as I expected with the fourth line matched up with the other team's third line. The coach was so predictable I knew she was going to the third line after and then the first line. That would be Fleur's best bet to attempt her move if she was going to try it at all. I didn't want Fleur to get bad habits in discipline within the game or otherwise but I couldn't bear the frustration etched on her face from the lack of production. My phone vibrated in my pocket and I checked quickly not wanting to miss a beat of the game.
Hey, about to get a real rough case come in so decided to brace myself and hear from you. How's Fleur doing? Are they winning? I miss you both.
-Lau
Sorry, but they're down by 1, Fleur's a bit frustrated but hopefully she'll get out of this funk soon, I just had a talk with her and gave her advice. Miss you too, I hope your case isn't too bad. Come over when you're done I'll leave the backdoor unlocked for you.
-Bo
I might make the end of the game… hopefully! Gota go!
XOXOX
-Lau
I smiled widely and as I looked up I saw the tired bodies of the third line ready to come out. My body tensed in anticipation and I held my breath wondering if she would take my advice. I saw the coach tap the girl I had seem sitting with Fleur in the back as her line mates got ready and jumped while the other line came in. Before anybody could protest or do something about it instead of the first line centre Fleur jumped into the ice oblivious to the hollers of her fuming coach.
I saw her receive the puck and push it against her sake to advance it to her stick like we had been practicing. Her teammates either didn't care that she was on or thought the coach had done it, but they were rolling with it. She broke through the blue line in a breakaway faked the pass to the line mate beside her and then shot off that hard backhand she practiced so much. I heard the horn go as Ryan raised to his feet immediately. I was shocked and astounded as I rose slowly not quite believing I had seen my girl score. She was engulfed by her line mates but as they skated to the bench to salute their teammates she looked at me with a huge smile pointing at me.
To my immense disappointment and much to the protest of her teammates it seemed that Fleur had gotten benched for the rest of the game for her swap. The coach stubbornly kept to her lines and I could see my daughter fuming on the bench as she glared at the ice. With each passing second I felt my anger rise from just furious to livid. I couldn't believe that this lady was getting back at me through Fleur. I could hear Ryan angrily yelling at the coach as well as other parents as they asked for 'The Flower' to come on. I saw the bitch grit her teeth and keep the strategy until she lost us the game.
In an array of boos and grumbles the arena slowly emptied with the last buzzer and I rushed to the door on the ice to wait for my girl after the stupid coach had practically run into the locker room. She was the first one on the ice and she made a beeline for me hugging me tightly. She was lost in all of this equipment, her helmet was already off and her flowing waves of brown hair framed her face as her brown eyes grew lighter with her tears.
"I stand by what I did." She grumbled to me in the midst of angry tears making my anger surpass what I had ever experienced.
"You left everything on the ice and gave your team a chance." I assured her going down to her level as I took off her helmet and wiped her tears.
I was impressed as her teammates passed her by all stick tapping her and grumbling their approval of her decision. The first line centre who was also the captain was last and she stood beside Fleur with a sad smile.
"We're going to get chewed out but I don't care, we got a goal out of that. We could've won with that line." The girl admitted and Fleur chuckled sniffling as I squeezed her shoulder.
"Well I guess we should go get chewed out together Chloe-G." Fleur smiled and tugged my hand slightly before I made my escape to Ryan. "Mom, this is my bestie Chloe-Grace. Gracey, this is my Mom."
I couldn't mistake the pride in her voice as I shook the other girl's hand. Like Fleur she got lost in all her gear but I could see her pretty smile and bright green eyes.
"It's a pleasure to meet you, Fleur raves about you .time" Chloe shoved my girl and Fleur gave me one last blushing hug before leaving.
As I turned to our seats I saw Lauren next to Ryan as he was talking animatedly about what had happened apparently. She looked absolutely gorgeous in her dark jeans and tall boots along with that brown leather jacket I loved so much. Her hair was up in a messy bun and tucked away under her worn hat which was identical to mine. I saw her frown as he finished but as she looked up and our eyes connected all anger dissipated within me. Ryan gave me a nod and went outside as I approached Lauren on the stands.
"Hey." I whispered as I couldn't help but smile when she draped her arms around me.
"Hey you. I had the worse time at the hospital so it's great to see you." She breathed into my ear and I sighed as I squeezed her hips pulling her closer.
"You're good now" I assured her as she pulled away giving me a soft shy peck on the lips.
"I know, all I need to be great is my SmallFry now but I heard she got benched after scoring a goal." Lauren frowned and my anger returned.
"First of all, the coach didn't let me in the room to give Fleur her stuff." I gruffed and her brow furrowed in confusion "then I advised Fleur to take a chance with a line change to stir up the lines-"
"Bo I don't understand those terms, did she deserve to be benched?" she asked and I thought hard about it.
"No, if it was that severe the coach would've disciplined Chloe-Grace as well, she only benched Fleur. It attributed a chewing out on the bench not a whole benching of the third period." I insisted truthfully and Lauren nodded.
"I can't believe Nadia would do that!" she exclaimed angrily as I shook my head.
"I want to hurry, Fleur might be upset." I mentioned as I took anxious glances at the players hall.
Lauren frowned and she walked with me closer to the hall to greet Fleur with me. I had seen a couple of girls from the visiting come out already so I knew Fleur's team wouldn't be far behind. I felt Lauren tug my hand and give me an apologetic look.
"I have to step outside and take this." She motioned at her ringing phone and I nodded assuring her it was fine.
She gave me one last glance before walking away and ducking after the open door. After a few more minutes I saw Fleur's team start to come out mumbling and grumbling about the game as parents surrounded their kids. One Father came up to me after he had gathered his girl who was in the same second line as Fleur. He gave me a smile and extended his hand which I took.
"I'm Dave Bradshaw, Rosie's father. Listen, I saw you speaking to Fleur earlier before the beginning of the third period. I'm not saying you encouraged her to break the rules, but if you did… I'm glad she listened. My girl hasn't had that much fun in a while." Dave mentioned and I smiled.
"I'm glad Rosie had fun, I'm sure my daughter had fun as well, until well…you know." I shrugged.
"Complete BS if you ask me, chin up, see you next game Mrs. Lewis." He commented and left as I smiled there flabbergasted by what he had called me.
I felt a small tug to my shirt and turned to see a beautiful girl in front of me. She was not much taller than Fleur with beautiful natural waves in her dark blonde hair. It wasn't until I saw her green eyes and pretty smile that I realized it was Chloe-Grace.
"Fleur's Mom… or whatever you want me to call you. She's still in there getting showered, coach held her back to grill her some more. I'm super mad but couldn't do anything." Now that she mentioned it I could tell she was shaking with anger and soon so was I.
"That's completely uncalled for! Wow!" I huffed as the blonde nodded.
"Can you please tell her to call me later? I know she's going to be all bummed out about this." Chloe-Grace lamented.
"I sure will, thanks for being her friend." I admitted and she nodded before leaving.
I leaned against the wall, the arena almost empty as I clenched my jaw in anger. A few moments later I heard the locker room door bang and I stared up coming face to face with that bitch. I felt the anger take over me as I took several strides to close our gap staring her down as she gave me a smug smile.
"Why did you have to keep her longer, this is totally uncalled for." I snarled as she shook her head and shoved me out of her way.
I breathed deeply and reminded myself to behave, this was not the time or place for me to break this girl's jaw.
"You had no right to tell her to change my game plan. I'm the coach end of story." She refuted and I grit my teeth.
"No. This was personal, you only benched Fleur and not Chloe." I spat back as she got in my face once more.
"I don't give a fuck what you think, you don't matter here you'll be gone before you know it. Just like I was. She smells good, doesn't she? Lavender and sweet grass eh?" She poked me heavily in the chest with her finger shoving me against the wall even more as my anger rose with each word.
I pushed her hard back so she would back off as I head footsteps coming towards us rapidly.
"Nadia!" Lauren's voice was firm and hard across the hall as she closed the distance to us.
I was glaring at the dark haired woman as my chest heaved in anger and my knuckles whitened from balling them. The woman took a step back looking at Lauren with something I couldn't quite place. Nadia smiled widely as the blonde approached us and the coach shook her head in mirth.
"Lauren, there you are! I was beginning to worry, this lunatic has been preaching up and down that she's Fleur's mother." Nadia gestured at me as my anger rose.
"This is Bo Denis, Coach Karkanis this is Fleur's other Mother yes." Lauren replied evenly as a cold tone took over her voice.
"You're Fleur's mother." The coach responded blatantly angry.
"And so is she. She's also my girlfriend." Lauren responded firmly.
"Wow… what an irony." The coach made a face. ""Isn't it too early for Fleur to be calling the girlfriend Mom?"
"I'm Fleur's biological mother." I hissed and the woman turned to me glaring before she punched me hard across the face.
Lauren ran to us quickly shoving the other woman away before I could do anything. I think that by the look on my face Lauren knew it wouldn't be pretty if I retaliated. The woman and I glared at one another tensely before making a disgusted face at Lauren.
"I can't believe you stooping down so goddamn low." The coach spat and Lauren closed the gap between them and slapped her hard.
"Next time you take your anger out on my child or my lover I will fucking end you." Lauren warned in a low dangerous voice and with that the coach made her escape.
Lauren turned to me as I clenched my jaw watching the other woman leave. Lauren was about to say something but I shook my head nodding behind her where Fleur was making her way towards us her head down gloomily. Lauren rushed to our slumped child and wrapped her arms around her kissing the top of her head. The small brunette sniffled and looked up at me as her eyes widened and she broke lose running to me.
"What happened Mom?" she asked as I leaned down as she caressed my face where I had just been punched.
"It doesn't matter now Fleur, do you have everything?" I asked and she nodded holding onto Lauren's hand and mine as well.
"Momma I'm so glad you didn't see the joke of a third period we had, I can't believe I got benched for getting creative and scoring a goal." Fleur fumed as we walked outside.
The rest of the car ride Fleur just rambled on and on giving her mother a play-by-play. Ryan had left earlier to meet up with Dyson who wasn't feeling so good at the moment and needed some guy time. I leaned my head against the window while Lauren and Fleur spoke and Lauren held my hand. I was deep in thought trying to figure out this woman that had such a vendetta against me. I didn't think I deserved to be punched for changing up her lines, yet I felt like deep down there was more to the situation than met the eye. Before we knew it we were almost at our streets and Lauren squeezed my hand.
"I'm going to take us to mine, Kenzie sent me a text earlier about having a private meeting" the blonde gave me a wink and then I understood that Kenzie was probably getting laid. I laughed loudly at Lauren's wording and Fleur made a confused face in the back.
"Sounds good, oh Lau you have solid gold sometimes." I admitted and she chuckled.
"Ugh you adults and your weird conversations!" Fleur huffed as we laughed.
We went inside and Fleur ran to the bathroom to take a shower while Lauren and I sat on the couch trying to relax after taking off our shoes. It felt so good to be with her after all this time that I just couldn't help but stare at her for a bit. She noticed and chuckled incredulously before shoving me a bit.
"Bo come on, you're staring." Lauren's laugh was magical as she said the words.
"I know." I assured her and she shook her head leaning into me and caressing where my now black eye was.
"I hope this doesn't affect work." She lamented and I shook my head.
"No, it's all written so no worries" I assured her wrapping my arms around her neck.
"I'm sorry about Nadia… I never thought she would punch you. She's just got some unresolved anger issues." I could hear the anger simmering beneath her voice and I let out a soft sigh.
"You know I could've handled myself." I mentioned and she nodded.
"I know you would've destroyed her so I just took pre-emptive measures." Lauren assured me as I brushed a strand of blonde hair away from her face.
"You're so hot when you're angry." I chuckled.
Her lips found my own in seconds as her body molded to mine pushing me back against the couch gently. The way her lips massaged against mine was magical and I couldn't help but whimper into her mouth as her tongue ran the length of my lower lip. I couldn't resist giving her entrance as she massaged my tongue with hers in a sensual dance that I had missed tenfold. I pulled her closer feeling myself get lost in her and her lips as my body went into overdrive. We both tensed as we heard a door and footsteps Lauren pulled back suddenly as we both heaved breathless and flushed red from the intimacy of the kiss. Dishevelled and disoriented Lauren looked around to come face to face with Fleur behind the couch. Lauren smiled guiltily as our child shook her head in disapproval, however her eyes shone with laughter and approval.
"What do you have to say for yourselves?" she mocked and I grinned when Fleur's eyes met mine.
"Call Chloe-Grace?" I offered with a shrug and she giggled.
"You too are incorrigible!" she declared as we laughed. "And I already did. I know we're supposed to have dinner together tonight, but can I please go over to Chloe's? I won't see her after tomorrow when we're in Montreal." She pleaded her case as Lauren looked at me.
"What do you think, does she get off the hook for ditching us for dinner?" Lauren asked and my heart pounded in my chest.
It was such a silly question, such a silly moment, but the fact that she was asking me to weigh in with a decision regarding Fleur really did touch me. It was hard to describe, it was as if now that the excitement of the game and the adrenaline of being late was gone I could thin clearly and realize the responsibilities I had been given today.
It was now that I realized I had been Fleur's mother today. It was a stupid notion since I had been Fleur's mother since birth, but my actions had been of a normal hockey mom. I had rushed to a game after work, supported her, stood up for her, advised her and even got punched for her. I had met her friends and had been accepted by most of the peers there. It was the first time in my whole life that I had acted….domestic in a positive way.
"I think she earned it with that breakaway goal on the backhand." I grinned as she smiled and dropped something on my chest.
"Later losers, don't make me a sister alright?" she chuckled and walked out the front door as we laughed and shook our heads.
"That's it no more hanging out with Kenzie!" Lauren exclaimed and I laughed hard as I felt around my chest for the heavy object Fleur had tossed there.
I touched it and my heart stopped having an idea of what it was. My eyes grew wide and Lauren stopped chuckling as I gripped the rubber and pulled it up. It was the puck Fleur had scored on. It was taped with today's date her number and her name printed on it. I noticed she had put some tape on the top and had written something herself.
'Thanks for being in my corner Mom'
I felt tear come to my eyes as I ran my thumb against the message.
"She's very sweet. I'm happy you were there for her today. Sports is something beyond me, but I see it every morning how it brings you two together." Lauren whispered as she drew circles on my hip absentmindedly still straddling me.
"She's amazing, you've done so good with her… so polite and educated." I whispered in awe.
"It's all you and her…us… she was good by herself as she grew into her own little person. I knew I wasn't your biggest fan when we met." She cringed as I chuckled squeezing her free hand. "But I knew you had to be good if she was this good Bo… and you are."
Her words and love engulfed me like a tidal wave. I couldn't contain myself as I raised myself closing the gap between us kissing her deeply. I got lost in her tongue as a moan ripped from deep within her throat ignited the fire of want I felt simmering with each of our caresses. My palm pressed flushed against her thin camisole clad back as I sighed feeling he warmth of her skin. Lauren was undisputed the most beautiful being I had ever experienced in my life. The way she felt, the way she tasted, the way she spoke, her laugh, her lively personality I couldn't describe how much I loved Lauren's soul and moments like this I felt like I could just give myself completely to her.
"Baby please." She moaned as I kissed down her neck "I can't catch my breath do… do you want to slow down?"
I chuckled against her throat as I pulled back and took my Jersey off tugging at her camisole gently. She let me with apprehension and I pressed my lips against her own as I pulled her against me pulling another groan from her lips as her head leaned back.
"It's ok baby just relax… I'm me…" I assured her trying to convince her that I was not trying to get off.
"I… you'd tell me right?" Lauren asked in the smallest voice.
"Of course baby, I'd get away from you." I confessed looking into her eyes now with the utmost sincerity. "I wouldn't want that for us… Not… not after that beautiful night you gave me Lau"
Her lips found my own once more and I could feel her hands pull me closer as we melted into one another once more. I broke apart from her and motioned for her to stand which she did. I grabbed her hand and walked her over to the bathroom. I remembered she had told me in the arena she had a rough night. I turned on the glass paneled shower in the corner as she slowly without breaking our eye contact took her clothes off. The gesture was so intimate and sensual that I felt myself moisten at the sight of the want in her eyes.
I was frozen to my spot as she walked towards me and busied her hands with my black jeans and my underwear. Anywhere her hands touched me caught fire as her lips traveled my body leaving a scorching trail of kisses around my abdomen and ribs. My fingers tangled in her hair as I moaned pulling her closer while the room steamed up with the heat of the water. I pulled her into the shower with me before we got carried away.
Lauren moaned as the water hit her skin soothing her aching muscles. I grabbed her shoulders and pinned her against the wall as our mouths found one another in a warm embrace. My body pressed flush against hers felt so good that I couldn't help but moan myself. She whispered my name as I sucked a particular spot on her neck wanting her to go crazy. I wanted Lauren to feel as good and whole as she made me feel.
Her hands tangled in my hair as I nipped and sucked on her collarbone, the water warm against us intensifying the moment. I gripped her hips with my fingers and rolled my own into hers making her moan loud into the acoustic space. I shuddered in delight as I took her nipple into my mouth, her fingers with a tight grip on my hair.
"Oh Bo" she sighed in pleasure as I assaulted her senses hoping to convey how much I loved her into the actions I was using.
I was carefully threading a line in my mind that was a constant struggle. I was pulling things from my past experiences that I knew were good and felt good but with that I had to be careful not to bring the insatiable beast of my addiction into our intimacy.
As I licked between her breasts and kissed down her stomach her knees buckled slightly and I shook my head with worry. I pinned her hard against the wall making sure she couldn't move. The beast within me delighted as I shook it away with disdain.
"I love you so much Bo." Lauren breathed bringing me back to this our moment.
"Whatever you do, don't move too much." I instructed as she looked at me confused before I grinned mischievously.
I put my hands strongly under her ass reveling on the firmness of it and in one swift movement I raised her slightly. While squatting I got to pinning her against the wall firmly and stable, knowing that if I kept my centre of gravity balanced we would be alright. Lauren yelped in pleasure as her legs now propped on my shoulders while my face buried on her warm centre.
I could hear her moaning loudly as I licked her with a steady rhythm. She kept mumbling how she couldn't believe how strong I was. Pretty soon her words turned into incoherence's as her head leaned back against the dark blue tile and I licked her swollen mound. Her hips moved against my face and I pressed against her hard nipping her clit gently as she hissed. I pulled my face back looking up at her as she met my eyes.
"Baby" I panted as I readjusted my foot slightly. "please, don't move much or we'll topple over."
All she could do was nod as she bit her lip and without losing my gaze I licked her length several times as she moaned and panted. Our eyes still held one another's as I sucked on her swollen lips and she gasped loudly when I entered her easily from this position with my tongue. Her moans turned into screams as time passed up and stilled at the same time. I savoured each stoke as I felt her give herself to me completely. It wasn't until I felt her start to quiver that I gently lowered her to avoid us falling.
"Bo please…" she begged as I pulled away and pushed her against the corner gently.
"Put your leg around my shoulder and your weight against me." I instructed as I guided her palm to prop against the wall.
I pulled her leg above me and lapped away again feeling her build up return to it's fervor. I sighed in content as my name rolled off her tongue and with a few words of encouragement and direction she was soon pressing me closer to her as her walls tightened around my tongue. I felt throw her weight against the wall to let me raise myself up and I did pulling use under the stream of water as she panted holding onto me.
"Oh Bo… wow…" Lauren breathed as I chuckled.
I felt on cloud nine, ecstatic even. It was like being drunk but better, I was enthused by the reactions I could pull out from Lauren, her sounds, her quivers, her caresses, her kisses, her screams. It was all like a new form of awe that I needed to explore carefully and slowly with all the calm in the world. She was beautiful like that in so many ways. It was so raw and candid and deep that I just wanted to touch her soul like this over and over again. She was giving herself to me and I was proud and honoured to be taking her into myself.
"I love you Lauren." I whispered meaning it with all the fibers of my being. "I know I don't say it often but I do feel it every second of my day."
"Oh Bo." She breathed and held me even closer.
After we showered she took me to the bedroom and slowly but surely she explored every inch of my body leaving me breathless numerous times. As we laid tangled in each other I laid my head on her chest listening to her heartbeat while she played with my hair making me laugh with her jokes. There was no heavy topics like her hard day or what had happened in the arena. It was just Lauren and I lost in one another and relishing the fact that I was slowly learning how not to be a monster.
