DISCLAIMER: I do not own Fifty Shades Trilogy. Just this story. And NOT a professional writer. Just sharing my first ff.
LEMONS ALERT!
I woke up feeling warm all over. I was pressed in a hard body and his spicy scent filling the air that I was breathing. I remembered making him sleep beside me when I was about to pass out and saw him just clutching my hand sitting beside the bed. I felt surprisingly better now than last night. This was the first time that I woke up in the morning beside this man and the feeling wasn't awkward like what I thought at first. I felt comfortable and safe. His scent was making me forget that we're in a hospital bed. He smelled sexy and home. Gavin. I snuggled closer to his chest and felt him stir.
"Good morning, Officer." I looked up through my lashes and was greeted by the sight of a sleepy expression of him. Oh, Mr. Boxers looks so hot when he's sleepy.
"Hey." He blinked once then twice. "Oh shit. I fell asleep." I quickly wrapped my arms around his waist when he tried to get up.
"It's okay. Stay here, please." I whispered.
He sighed and turned to his side to face me. "How are you feeling?" He said caressing my cheek with his knuckles and with that bedroom voice that was making my insides clench.
"I'm feeling much better." I leaned into his touch and closed my eyes.
"Your head?" I shook my head no. "Your back?" I winced. Crap, maybe that hit last night was harder than I thought. Even though my head wasn't a problem anymore, seemed that my back was going to be a bother for a while.
Gavin sensed my discomfort and tried to pull away. "Ana, your back still hurts, right? I am making you uncomfortable."
"No it's fine. It isn't that painful." I insisted.
"Ana. I—"
"I'm sorry." I whispered. I needed to say that. He didn't deserve to be trampled by Christian last night. Heck, he didn't deserve all this drama with me. He did nothing but to care for me and my son. He was willing to accept everything about me and what did I do? I kept him in the dark. I knew he was losing patience and that what made him leave last night, but he still went back and stood up to Christian and what did I do again? Sent him out just to talk to my ex. I still feel guilty about it even though it was the best way to calm Christian and make him understand that I wasn't his anymore. But I wasn't able to handle it the way I wanted it to be. Damn the headaches last night that made me disoriented and exhausted. Yes, I blamed it to that tattoo guy who pushed me hard against the wall and smashed my head to the ground. I should also blame Melissa for everything that happened last night. But I couldn't because part me knew that I was the only one to blame here.
Stop it Steele. You're stronger than this. Why blame yourself now? You still have the chance to make it up for the man beside you right? Talk to him. Tell him everything.
"Why are you apologizing?" He tilted my chin up.
"Last night. Christian." I said looking straight into his warm light blue eyes which turned a shade darker when I mentioned my ex-husband's name.
"I knew that he would surely come but I was surprised that it was that soon too." Gavin stayed quiet and right now I would do anything just to know what he was thinking at the moment. Serves you right, Steele. "I know him. His temper would go over the top. I knew he wouldn't like idea of me being with another man. He's a jealous and possessive type. So I thought that I could calm him down with you not being in the room." I searched for his face, looking for any reaction from him but still nothing. He remained passive and just staring at me.
I sighed. "I told him that you were right. That we're together now…"
"You did?" His eyes widen in surprise. Did he think that I was going deny us? Was that why he was being like this? Oh Gavin.
"Of course I did." I cupped his face with both hands. "Did you think that I wouldn't tell him?" He nodded. I kissed his nose before I spoke. "Silly, why would you think that? There is no reason to hide. And actually I was surprised to see him shocked instead of going ballistic last night. I thought that maybe Kate or Elliot had already told him about us but I guess he didn't have any idea until last night."
He pulled me close by the waist and crashed his lips into mine. He kissed me so hungrily, licking and nipping at my lips. I kissed him back moving my lips against his passionately. I moaned when his hand found my breast then he kissed me harder, letting his tongue trail against my lips, begging for entrance. I gladly opened my mouth, and let it in, our tongues battled for dominance.
"Ana." He muttered against my lips.
"Thank you for being you, Gavin. You were so patient and sweet and you deserve more from me." I kissed his lips once more and gently placed my hand on his cheek and stroked his stubble. "I'm ready. I want to tell you everything."
"Ana, I won't force you to do something you don't want to do." He said in serious voice.
"No, you won't. One of the things I like about you." I said with a smile and tapping his nose with a finger.
His face lit up like he got a new toy for Christmas. "One of the things?" I nodded and couldn't help but to giggle at his expression. Oh he's just too cute. I wonder if people knew this side of Gavin. I didn't think I would see his eyes twinkling like a child. No one would ever imagine that sight for one mean hot cop like him. You're a lucky bitch, Steele.
"Can I know the other 'things' you like about me?" He asked with a hopeful expression.
"Hmm." I said pretending that I was thinking while tracing his jaw line with my fingers. "I might tell you but I have to think about it first."
His face fell and looked disappointed. Geez, how could he be so cute and hot at the same time? Again, for the hundredth time, I still don't have the answer to that.
I wrapped my arms around his waist. "Tell you what, Officer. I'd rather show you the other 'things'," my hand found his sexy ass and squeezed it tight, "I like about you." I slowly licked my lips and leaned closer. "If you take me home as soon as you can."
He growled and captured my lips into his. "Right away, ma'am."
Melissa was packing when we got home after half an hour. We got out of the hospital in no time because just like what Gavin said last night, he got it all covered. I loved how he wasn't flaunting his money to me or to everyone else. If Melissa didn't mention that he wasn't just a regular cop with enough money on his bank account, I would never suspect him to be a guy with rich parents. Real estate business was a big deal. Yet, he remained discreet and tried to live a normal life.
I tried to insist on paying half of the hospital bill but he just ignored me and when we got inside his Range Rover he warned me that if I keep on insisting he was going to handcuffed and 'sexually assault' me in public. I knew it was just a bluff but I just shut my mouth and couldn't deny that it turned me on and couldn't wait to get back home for some release
I knew that my kinky side would never go away. With all the things that Christian had made me experience when we were still together, I had to admit that it became a big part of our sexual life and was very satisfied with it. Too bad your ex-husband had never been satisfied with just kinky sex with you.
Yes, it was the painful truth. I thought I changed him. I gave him another chance to redeem himself and prove that he just made a mistake out of being desperate and frustration because of series of unfortunate events at that time. But I guess love and commitment wasn't enough and would never be enough. What was done was done and he could never go back to make it right. I was past that dark part of my life and was starting a new. I didn't regret marrying him. He was my first love and would forever hold a place in my heart. And I had Teddy. He's the most wonderful boy a mother could ever have.
I left a note for Christian at the hospital saying that I already went back home and he should just spend his time with Ted not with me. I told him he could come back in the morning to make him leave because I couldn't argue with him anymore due to exhaustion and that seemed to work. I didn't want to know how he reacted when he tried to pay for my hospital bill. One of the nurses said so and I just knew he would do it. Bet it was a shock for him that someone already beat him to it. And that was my sweet Mr. Boxers.
Gavin insisted in carrying me up to the apartment because he didn't want me to feel dizzy and it was the safest way for me to get home. I knew it was silly but I just let him do it because after our slight make-out session in my hospital bed, I was already hot and bothered. Or were you just agreeing out of guilt?
I mentally slapped myself for those uncalled remarks. Yes I felt a pang of guilt because of what happened last night with Christian but my attraction to him just boosted to a hundred and ten percent or should I say he gained a thousand more points for the patience he showed and how he managed to handle the situation with Christian. He even left us alone and I bet it wasn't easy for him to do just that. He was an alpha male who would never think twice of knocking someone out of his way and would never allow a person to just tell him off just like that. But it showed the big difference between him and Christian. He listened. He left because he considered my feelings and the situation. It wasn't what he wanted to do at that time but nonetheless he did it. For me. Again, you are one hell of a lucky bitch, Steele.
And now I know I did the right thing in giving this a shot with Gavin. This was the answer to the mystery of how he managed to find a way to pass my defensive walls. He's my man now. My personal police officer. My Mr. Boxers.
I was lying comfortably in Gavin's bed because he was making me 'breakfast in bed' and didn't want me to stay in my apartment alone since Melissa was already leaving after breakfast. I told him that it was just fine for me to eat at the dining table but he just scooped me into his arms and attacked my lips with his and gently laid me down to his bed. He left me wanting for more and I couldn't stop the raunchy thoughts that were forming in my head to make him feel my sexual frustration at the moment.
I was thinking of masturbating in his bed, with me wide open for him when he comes back. I knew it was one of his fantasies of me doing in front of him because he said so himself, yesterday after a mind-blowing sex against my bedroom door. Really, Steele? What if Melissa sees you in that shameful position instead of Gavin? Couldn't you just wait for the two of you to be alone before you think of such sexual acts?
Geez. I shook my head to erase those lewd thoughts in my head. I honestly didn't know what was happening to me. I should be resting not planning to be a sex kitten. I knew my hoo-ha had more than enough of yesterday's sexcapade at my apartment and got a bit sore but I guess her sexual cravings were back with a vengeance and ready for more action.
My train of sexually explicit thoughts got interrupted by my phone ringing inside my purse.
"Hello."
"Anastasia." Why am I not surprised?
"Christian."
"Where are you? I went back to your hospital room and found that you were gone already." I rolled my eyes with the accusation in his tone.
"Did you get my note?" I said in a bored tone.
"Yes. But—"
"Then why are you calling asking where have I gone?" He tried to say something but I quickly added, "Christian, just go spend your day with Teddy. It will be 2 weeks for you to get to spend time with your son again. Don't waste your time with me."
"Ana, I am worried about you. I want you safe, you know that. After what happened last night, I just can't sit back and do nothing."
"I appreciate that you want to help but I don't need it. We're not together anymore Christian, you must understand. I chose to help someone last night and I don't regret it even if I got hurt." I tried to explain once more because I didn't want any more arguments with this thick-headed ex husband of mine.
"How are you feeling now? Have you eaten yet?"
"I'm feeling much better now. And no, not yet. But—"
He cut me off before I could finish my sentence. "Then I will bring you something to eat. You looked so pale last night Anastasia, you're not eating well." He then began barking orders to Taylor on the other line.
"Christian, stop." But he wasn't listening. "I said stop." I said a bit louder to get his attention. "Gavin is cooking breakfast for me. So you don't need to feed me, Christian."
There was a long silence and I thought he already hung up on me.
"Hello?"
"I see." He said in a controlled voice after a few seconds and I was so sure he was trying to control his anger.
I sighed. "Christian, like I what I told you last night, I'm with Gavin now. So please respect and just accept that. I agreed to be civil to you for Teddy's sake. But if you continue to just barge into situations just like last night, don't expect me to talk to you anymore. I did it in a year, I could do it again. You said you were willing accept what I can give you, right? Then do respect my wishes, act like your age and face the reality. I don't want to talk about the past anymore or even think about it. I'm past that. I'm trying to live a normal life here and you should do the same."
"Ana, I'm sorry and I don't want to upset you anymore. I just want you well and safe." He paused for a second then I heard him sigh. "I understand. But I'm not giving up baby. I love you and that would never change. I will wait until that cop fucker mess up. If he hurts you—"
"You did, Christian. He hasn't." And that made him stop with his never ending declaration of love. Was he serious? After everything that happened between us, did he think that I would still believe everything he was saying? Did he think that his 'love' would fix everything and get us back together?
"I want to talk to Teddy when he gets back, please let Elliot know. Is there anything else that you would like to say?"
"I love you Ana and I'm sorry." He said in a defeated tone.
"Goodbye Christian."
"Are you sure about going home so soon?" I asked Melissa who was getting ready to leave. She said that her dad called her and wanted her to go back home soon. Gavin warned her not to come to Portland without calling him first in the future. He called his sister in NY and made her talk to Melissa and after half an hour of I guess of scolding on the phone, Melissa apologized again and again and again. I got to talk briefly to Georgia, Gavin's sister, and said she couldn't wait to meet me. She seemed nice on the phone and I was glad that Gavin had a kind and understanding sister because she told me how cute my son was. Apparently, Gavin sent her pictures of us three and that just made me like him even more.
The breakfast in bed with Gavin was nothing like any other I had in the past. The whole time I was munching the pancakes that he made, he was just staring at me and just took a few bites that I fed him. Little did I know that he had other plan for his own breakfast.
After I cleared my plate, he took the tray and set it aside but left the maple syrup on the bed side table. He then pulled me in a searing kiss and unbuttoned my jeans and took them off in no time. I was left panting after the kiss and watched him spread my legs and kissed my inner thighs. I lifted up as he tugged my panties, helping him slide them off. He gripped the scrap of lace and pressed it to his nose briefly, inhaling deeply, before he stuffed it in his pocket.
"This is my breakfast." He said with a mischievous grin.
He leaned in and pressed a wet, open-mouth kiss on my thigh and trailed his tongue across my skin until he reached the juncture of my thighs. He didn't tease, his mouth closed over my damp core and his tongue dipped barely inside.
My body jerked with the unexpected touch and I sighed with the pleasure.
He parted my wet folds and started swirling his tongue through them, greedily lapping the moisture pooled there. And without any warning he dipped his tongue inside me, causing another rush of liquid. His growl of satisfaction against my delicate skin sent a jolt of electricity through me.
"Oh, Ana. You taste so fucking sweet." He then sucked my throbbing nub and bit it hard.
"Gavin!" I called out, not caring if Melissa could be just outside the door.
"Shhh, I got you." He stood up and grabbed the maple syrup from the bed side table. Oh my. "Now time for my breakfast in bed." He settled again between my legs and took off the lid of the maple syrup and poured an ample amount of it.
I shuddered when I felt the coldness hit my wet core. His hand stroked my thighs, warming them up. He then dipped his head and licked the syrup all the way up from my core to my pubic mound. I even felt his tongue poked the hole from my behind and that made me soaking wet, mixing my juices with the syrup. The orgasm was building so fast and I couldn't stop my hips from grinding against his face.
He continued to caress my thighs as he went to suck my clit. His hot mouth closed over my nub and he stroked it with his tongue several times before moving lower again. His tongue traced the edge of my lower lips slowly, taking his time, savoring the remaining maple syrup mixed with my own juices. He stopped occasionally to look at me while licking off the juices on his lips.
I writhed with pleasure, unable to stay still under his practiced mouth. In such a short time of being together, he already knew all my most sensitive places, exactly where and how to touch me. He was driving me wild and crazy with pleasure. He then let his tongue slide deeper brushing over my core. The soft touch sent a surge of electricity through me and I arched into him. He brushed over my core again, and then pushed his tongue deep inside. He parted my folds exposing my clit, and his mouth went directly to it. He stroked over it again and again, slowly building his speed and soon I was on the edge. My breath came in pants and I gripped his hair silently urging him to finish.
"Gavin, please don't stop."
He continued to brush over my clit, sucking it hard and fast. He pushed two fingers inside me while he increased the speed and pressure on my clit. My body jerked and I felt the orgasm quickly approaching. With few more strokes of his tongue, I came suddenly. My inner muscles clenching around his tongue as my whole body stiffened.
"Yeah. I don't want cause anymore trouble for you guys. Look what I did." Melissa said snapping me out of my wet daydream. Geez, I couldn't take my mind off that very hot breakfast in bed with Gavin.
"Yes. You did cause a big trouble for Ana. I hope you did learn your lesson now Melissa." Gavin who just came out of the kitchen and crossed his arms looking intently at Melissa.
"I'm so sorry Ana. I hope you could forgive me one day." She said sincerely.
"Hey, I understand now. And I know you're just being protective of Gavin."
"Protective my ass. She was just being her nosy self again. Who taught you to be like that, huh, Melissa? Did I? Or was it Georgia?"
Melissa just shook his head and I knew that she was about to cry. Gavin was really scaring her with the mean-cop-like voice. I better stop this now.
"Gavin, stop it already." He was about to speak again but stopped right away when I gave him a stern look.
He sighed and walked over to Melissa. "At least now you know how kind my woman is." He said ruffling her hair like she was a kid. My woman.
"Sorry." She said as Gavin hugged her affectionately. Melissa hugged him back and sniffed a little.
If I walked into this yesterday, I would definitely go beyond jealous and might not talk to Gavin anymore or even hate him. But with the way Gavin was consoling her after scolding her like a big brother, there was no doubt that he cared for her like a real little sister. It was such a refreshing sight seeing Melissa not her 'usual' mean Barbie look.
"Are you sure you don't want me to drive you to PDX?" Gavin asked as he pulled away.
"There's no need. I will just take a cab. I don't think it's a good idea to leave Ana here alone."
After a hug from Melissa, I said my goodbye and watch them walked out of the door. Gavin would be making sure that Melissa gets a cab safely. After few minutes, Gavin was back and we settled on the couch.
He wrapped his arms around me as I enjoyed the feeling of his stubbly cheek on the palm of my hand.
"What do you want to do now, my lady?" Gavin asked as he captured my index finger with his lips.
"Time for my story telling, my knight with a shiny Range Rover." He chuckled as I readied myself to tell him everything that he needed to know about my not-so-happily-ever-after marriage with Christian. Let's do this, Steele.
