There Is No Love Without Pain

Chapter 25

Grapenut01 – Mrs. Lovett/ James/ Violet

BellatrixBlackLovett - Coral

Nellie woke up early the next morning wincing in pain but smiling seeing Coral sleeping peacefully beside her and kissed her lightly before sliding out of the bed starting a bath hoping to be finished and dressed before Coral woke up so she wouldn't see how scratched up she was.

Stirring lightly Coral rolled over; her arms trying to search for Nellie's body before she shifted so she lay in the warm patch Nellie had just lain in. Whimpering her eyes kept closed tightly before she woke up seeing the room empty. Frowning Coral sat up before she wiped her eyes and leant against the headboard before a smile appeared on her face. So she wasn't dreaming, she really was here with her Nellie.

She hummed softly as she climbed into the tub flinching some from the bubbles in the water but they would keep her hidden if Coral did wake up and come looking for her. She just sighed and slid down in the tub making herself comfortable.

Sliding from the bed Coral heard water moving around from Nellie's bathroom. Smiling lightly she gently opened the door before she leant in the doorway. Biting her lip Coral watched Nellie, her back to Coral as she took in the cuts, damage, the hurt that had be placed upon her. Shaking her head she watched her for a few moment before she crept in and knelt by the bathtub before she sighed, catching Nellie's attention "Morning my pale angel." She smiled up at her.

Nellie jumped some and pulled the bubbles closer smiling and kissing her lightly. "Mornin' love. Care t'join me? S'awfully lonely in here withou' ya."

Coral kissed her back before she sat on the floor, her hands dipped in the water "I'd love to." She smiled weakly before she bit her lip "But you look awfully hurt Nellie. I can see you in so much pain, you need to rest."

Nellie sighed leaning into her kissing her collarbone. "M'fine. I's nuthin' love. Jus'... a few scratches an' such." She said biting her lip.

Smiling lightly Coral stroked her cheek "Yes, and the rest." She muttered pulling back from Nellie to gently hold her chin to her face "I'm not stupid. I know what he done. It's the same that Tom done. I've seen it all before."

Nellie sighed looking down. "Please come be with me... I jus' wan' ya here with me. I-I missed ya so much. an' i' does hur'. alo'. Bu' ya make i' go away. Come be with me love."

"I'd love that more than anything in the world." Whispered Coral moving to sit on the edge of the bath tub before she sighed and lifted Nellie's chin up "But I've no idea what to do anymore. I'm stuck. Falling fast. Getting crushed." She bit her lip holding back some tears "A-and it's hurting me so much."

Nellie shook her head shutting her eyes sighing and kissing her leg gently. "Ya should be ge'in' t'the hospi'al anyways dear... he'll be wakin' up anytime now probably."

Nodding Coral stood up brushing her eyes dry "Your right." She muttered "I'll take Bella with me, I'm sure he'd love to see her then I'll come back. Promise. I don't care what he says anymore." Sighing she leant down and gently kissed Nellie's lips as she turned, leaving the room, pausing in the doorway to catch her angels beautiful form once more before she moved to grab her daughter.

Nellie turned her head instead so she caught her lip shaking her head stoll not opening her eyes. Not trusting them. "Ya shouldn' do tha'...ya have t'pack everythin' up from his place."

Choosing to ignore her Coral waved goodbye for the moment, Bella cupped in her arms before she tugged down the stairs, her heart pounding for Nellie before she let herself outside. Pausing, her eyes caught her old house; it'd be so easier to go back to that life. Sighing she shook her head before she may her way to the hospital. She seemed to quicken as she got near James room before she stopped and sighed in relief as she saw him sitting up, right as rain in his bed. Gulping lightly Coral let herself into her room before she leant against the door and looked at him "Bloody fool," she muttered with a smile on her face "you scared me. Next time you listen to me and stay put, you hear!"

James laughed some and shrugged kissing her gently pulling them both close. "Yes dearest. How are my two beautiful ladies today though?" he asked grinning stroking Bella's head.

Smiling lightly Coral kissed him back before she let him take Bella off her "We're tired. Worried," she sighed looking at him she gently stroked his cheek "I thought something horrid had happened to you." She whimpered lightly "I-I thought.."

"I'm fine. I told you that. They said I'm doing better than they thought. I should be free in a couple of days."

"Well you obviously weren't fine!" snapped Coral before she shook her head and sat down, her eyes on Bella as James rocked her. "And," she sighed "that means a couple of days without you.."

James held Bella close and kissed her little head. "You'll survive I'm sure. Have lots of packing to busy yourself with my dear Coral."

Gritting her teeth at the thought she quickly changed the subject needing to ask him something that needed to be asked "James," she said leaning back into her chair "me, you and Nellie. Would you ever..."

"Would I ever what dear?" He asked frowning looking up from Bella.

Sighing Coral tapped her head lightly before she widened her eyes "You know." She muttered twisting her wrist a little.

"No. I don't know. Would we what Coral? Out with it already."

"Bloody hell." She muttered under her breath before she blushed lightly "To put it into better words dear would you watch me and Nellie?" she raised her eyebrows before she tilted her head to one side "Would you join in?"

"Why? I-Is that something you want from me?"

Opening her mouth Coral went to reply before she looked to him with a straight face "I'm the one asking the question sweet heart."

"I hadn't thought of it. No. Do you... want that?"

Thinking for a moment Coral looked to him, she knew what she wanted "I guess I do." She looked up to him "Oh, come on it's not like you didn't even think about it a little. I mean what was running through our head when you watched us? Did it appease you a little?"

James reddened some and shifted a bit handing Bella back to her. "Well of course I liked it woman. And I'll do whatever you want me to."

Smiling Coral stood up and took her daughter "She missed you. She keeps doing this little expression when someone comes into the room, she thinks it's her daddy." Leaning down Coral kissed him "You don't have to, if you don't want to. She needs a few days rest anyway. You know that woman who got attacked by the man who got me? Turns out it was Nellie, poor think, covered in bruises."

"No. I'll do it for you Coral. You know that I will. And no... I didn't know it was her. Too bad. She didn't look half bad before. Must look an awful mess now."

"She's getting there." Muttered Coral raising her head a little as she got the bitchy side of his comment, how could he say such a thing? Kissing him once more she stroked his hair lightly "Now I'll come back tomorrow, ok, but make sure you rest and that they treat you well in here." She stated looking at a nurse as she came in "Don't want them messing around with my dear husband like a bit of meat."

James kissed her back smiling and nodding. "Behave Coral. The poor womans only doing her job. No need to insult her like that." He scolded.

Smirking slyly she kissed him once more before she said her goodbyes and left needing to quickly get home to Nellie and tell her all about her little chat with James. Smiling Coral practically ran through the town and back to Nellie's before she slipped in the back door, putting Bella in her cot before she went in search of her beloved pie maker.

Nellie had finished her bathand was just lacing herself up when Coral came in downstairs. She didn't hear though and brushed her hair out wincing some and applying her makeup when Coral came in.

Coral's smile seemed to fade as she watched Nellie moved around in pain. Sighing she went behind her and gently pulled her corset together before she tugged her over to her bed room and sat her on the bed before she slowly and soothingly started to brush out her wet, wavy hair "Got to be more gentle love." Coral whispered as she kissed Nellie's neck.

Nellie jumped some and sighed biting her lip shutting her eyes trying not to lean back into her. "Coral..." She sighed meaning to tell ehr she should go but couldn't bear to even think of sayign that her.

"Yes I'm here." She whispered against Nellie's skin before she went back to brushing her hair "Told you I was going to come back." She smiled before she rested her head on Nellie's shoulder longing for closeness "I've something to tell you. And ask you." She bit her lip for a moment before saying "What would you say to me, you and James?" she muttered with her eyebrows raised. Nellie wasn't a dim in that area like James, Nellie knew what she was talking about.

Nellie bit her lip sighing some. "I love ya Coral. Ya know I'll do anythin' ya wan' from me. He doesn' much like me bu' I'll do anythin' fer ya. Ya know I will darlin'."

Matching her sigh Coral shook her head before gently she began to knead Nellie's shoulder in her palms giving her a massage "Don't say that, you don't have to if you don't want too. Even so we're waiting till your better." She slowly leant nearer to Nellie "And, don't even think of him being there. Anyways, he's a man. I'm sure he's thought of you.."

Nellie moaned softly leaning back into her Coral and shut her eyes. "Wha' if he wan's me to with him? I don' wan' to Coral. I's hard enough thinkin' o'him touchin' ya. M'yers."

"Then I won't let him touch you." She whispered rubbing Nellie's back and shoulders "If you don't want him to then he won't." She sighed and leant in to kiss her lovely friends neck once more.

Nellie bit her lip groaning softly tilting her head. "Coral... wha' m'I gonna do withou' ya?"

"You'll never be without me," Reassured Coral as she nibbled at Nellie's ear "no matter what. I'm here for you, always am and always will be."

"I know ya are dear." She said softly, smiling and turning catching her lips kissing her gently. "I love ya darlin'. I really do. I'll do this if ya wan'. I jus' don' wan' him comin' fer me. M'only yers." She murmured.

"I promise I'll keep you all to myself." Smiled Coral as she kissed Nellie back slowly "And I love you too, so much more then you let yourself think."

Nellie smiled some and turned around wrapping her arms around Coral laying her head on the woman's chest contentedly. "Yer all I ever need Coral..."

Kissing her head lightly Coral pulled back a little her eyes holding Nellie's gaze before she smiled happily. Pulling her back she kissed Nellie's jaw line and neck before she sighed happily, holding her close to her chest "If only I could lie here forever.."

"Ya can ya know. I wouldn' ever complain." She murmured kissing the tops of Coral's pale chest lightly. "Yer delicious love."

"That's something I'll have to think on..." Muttered Coral before she looked down and watched Nellie "What is it with you and those horrid things? Never understood why you liked them so."

"I's a par' o'you. A rather lovely par' if ya don' min' my sayin'." Nellie murmured nuzzling into her neck.

"Well I'll have to disagree," she sighed before stroking Nellie's head "they used to be a little better.. before Tom..even before Bella."

Nellie shook her head tapping a finger over her lips. "Don' ya dare talk bad abou' yerself love. No' a word of i' is true."

Smiling weakly she held Nellie's finger before she sighed "I wish you could've seen me when I was younger. In my twenties," she smiled "I looked a hell of alot better. I'll try finding a picture later. I think there was one with me and Tom when we were younger somewhere."

"I love ya as ya are dear. 'Sides... yer no' the only one who looked be'er back then. Mmm. Back before I had t'marry Alber'."

Coral shut her eyes at his name and stroked Nellie's back "I don't like hearing his name. What you've told me over the past," she shivered lightly at the thought of her Nellie being treated in such a way "makes me feel sick. Cold even."

"He didn' even seem tha' bad when I was li'le. He was always nice t'me. Brough' me presen's on my birthday an' such. He was my father's bes' frien'." Nellie murmured nuzzling into Coral more.

"Yet he still hurt you." Gulped Coral as she buried her face into Nellie's hair, her fingertips lightly running down her hips and thighs, "He beat you in such a way that makes even Tom look weak."

"I deserved i'. Tha's wha' he'd say. I didn' even do anythin'..." she mumurmed getting lost in thought a bit.

"Shut up Nellie, he was a drunken fool who wasn't worth the time of day." Stated Coral as she let herself fall backward on the bed, pulling Nellie down with her, her hands stroking her back lightly as she looked up, her eyes flicking over the ceiling as she thought to herself.

Nellie smiled curling up to her wrapping a leg around her. "Yer righ' love. I jus' don' wanna lose ya..."

"You won't, promise." Coral reassured lifting Nellie's leg a little higher as she stroked her skirts "You're stuck with me."

Nellie laughed softly and held Coral tighter kissing her lightly. "Tha's wha' I don' wan' t'happen. I don' wanna ever lose ya."

"Course you won't, I would never let you slip away from me," she kissed her back moving to lean over her a little as she sucked at her neck wanting to mark Nellie like she'd mark James.. like James had marked her "how could I let that ever happen, hmm?"

Nellie shivered tilting her head back moaning softly and biting her lip pushing down closer to her. "Coral..."

"Hmm, that's my name." Coral smirked as she began to lightly nip at Nellie's neck, her hands weaving slowly up her legs, between her thighs and to her breasts.

Nellie groaned pushing closer to her rocking her hips against Coral's leg shuddering and wincing some.

Pulling back Coral knelt on the bed, her head tilted as she looked at Nellie. She saw pleasure, lust, a need...she also saw pain. Biting her lip she held Nellie's hand and shook her head "I think," she whispered laying Nellie onto her stomach as she crawled towards her "that you could do with a nice back rub. Don't you agree?" she smiled lightly before she straddled over Nellie's back, her lips lightly pressing against her neck as she slowly undone the laces she'd just tied together.

Nellie whined softly but bit her lip happy with whatever she could get from the woman. Letting her untie and remove her dress along with whatever else she wanted knowing she'd see the marks sooner or later anyways.

Soon enough Coral had Nellie in nothing put her undergarments. Sitting up she sighed tears welling in her eyes as she flicked over the cuts on Nellie's body. "I..." she brushed her eyes quickly before she leant down "Coral will make them better." She whispered before she gently kissed and licked over the cuts and bruises on her angels' lovely body.

Nellie winced some biting her lip trying to relax again beneath her shuddering.

"Let yourself relax love," whispered Coral "you're so tense." Leaning back up she gently began to move her palms over Nellie's cool back before her fingertips soothing circled down her spine and small of her back.

Nellie moaned softly shutting her eyes and relaxing for her gaining goose bumps and moaning softly arching up to her some. "Mmmm... Coral."

"There, that's better." Cooed Coral as she gently rubbed down Nellie's sides and hips, a smirk on her face "Enjoying that are we?" she giggled moving her hands further up Nellie's sides.

Nellie nodded moaning softly squirming some beneath her before rolling over. "Don' ferge' this side too."

Laughing gently Coral let her hands fall onto Nellie's stomach as she kneading and stroked at her warm flesh before she slowly ran over her ribs and let her fingers brush over the lowers of Nellie's breasts.

Nellie winced some over a few tender spots and shut her eyes again moaning Coral's name softly.

Pulling her hands up Coral leant over Nellie a saddened look on her face "I'll stop. You're in pain, I'm just making it worse." She whispered looking over Nellie's lovely, inviting chest.

Nellie whimpered softly leaning up and kissing her. "Please... I need ya love. Make i' all go away. Please." She pleaded softly.

Coral sighed, kissing her back before she lay Nellie back down and began to gently suck and kiss along the uppers of the breast "But I'm making it worse," she whispered through her kisses "mentally and physically, I'm messing it all up."

"No ya aren' love. I love ya... mmm... feels so good." She murmured arching up to her mouth groaning.

"Just tell me where it hurts." Muttered Coral before she lowered her head and licked between Nellie's cleavage before she nibbled at the sides of her breasts, a small moan leaking from her mouth as she done so.

Nellie gasped softly moaning. "Everywhere. Bu' ya make i' all go away love. Ya do." She whispered softly tangling a hand in Coral's hair.

"You do make me laugh." Giggled Coral before her hands wound, her fingertips brush up Nellie's leg, her fingertips against her warm flesh. Sighing happily she began to suck and toy with Nellie's pert breasts, tugging and nipping lightly at her nipples as her hands wound further up her legs.

Nellie bit her lip wincing some but pushing up to her hand. "Jus' do i'. Make i' all go away. I-I don' wanna think o'him doin' anythin' t'me when I close my eyes. I jus' wan' you. Only you."

Shutting her eyes Coral tried to block out Nellie's words as they crawled into her ears. That man, that piece of scum and hurt her so badly, cut her, bruised her. Breathing a little heavily Coral let her hands tug down Nellie's undergarments before she slid her finger over her wet silky flesh "Nellie," she whispered kissing her neck "I'll make you safe again. I'll make all that pain go."

Nellie moaned wincing some and arching her back pressing closer to Coral cursing under her breath. "Bloody hell Coral... Go easy love. Bu' don' bloody stop." She said moaning.

"I...Nellie..you're in pain.." she whimpered though she slowly and carefully pushed two fingers into Nellie before she let them pause so Nellie could adjust to them "Tell me when." She added.

"I didn' say stop." She muttered rocking her hips up to Coral's hand moaning softly pushing all the pain and thoughts aside only thinking of her Coral touching her now.

Biting her lip Coral buried her face deep into Nellie's neck before she gently started to push her fingers in and out of her. Slowly she let her thumb come up and gently stroke at Nellie's clit. She hated seeing her sweetheart in such pain.

Nellie groaned wrapping her legs around Coral's hips moving with her shuddering and biting her lip before crying out her name as she came easily.

Whimpering lightly Coral pulled back and slid her finger from Nellie which she quickly put to her lips and licked them clean. Smiling she looked down and Nellie "Any better?" she asked with a little concern in her face.

Nellie fell back panting her name softly and smiling pulling Coral closer. "I'll never be done with ya love. Never." She murmured kissing her lightly.

Shaking her head Coral pulled back "No, that was your time." She stated as she kissed Nellie gently "That was your time to relax, not mine. I'm fine. I'm just worried about you.."

Nellie smiled softly. "No need t'worry my love. M'fine. Jus' stay here with me. Hold me." She murmured kissing her again.

"Course I'm going to worry," she whispered "you know that." Pulling back she leant against the headboard, pulling Nellie over before she scooped her into her lap, pulling the covers over them as she gently held her "There, picture perfect." Whispered Coral as she kissed Nellie's hair.

Nellie laughed softly kissing her gently. "Mmm. Would be qui'e the picture. Though ya /are/ perfec'."

Returning the laugh Coral patted Nellie's shoulder "Well of course, we'd be a lovely picture for all to see." She giggled before rolling her eyes "Stop with the comments, you know I don't like to be fussed over. Anyways, I think you'll find that you are the perfect one my dear. Just so perfect."

"I don' care. I feel like fussin' over ya so I will. An' I would keep the picture ferever Coral." She whispered closing her eyes leaning into her more. "Even though m'far from perfec', lookin' a righ' mess like this."

"Oh be quiet, you look just amazing." Sighed Coral as she looked over Nellie's beaten body "No matter what you'll always be my little beautiful pale angel. I don't care what you looked like back then or what you'll look like in years to come, no matter what, you'll be just amazing."

Nellie smiled gently and squeezed her some. "Can we jus' stay righ' here? Ferever?" She whispered sadly knowing the answer already. Her Coral was moving on. Whether she realized it or not. She was losing her to James.

"Nellie.." whispered Coral before she shook her head and buried it in her friends urban locks and shut her eyes tight "I'm really trying to keep us together." She muttered "We still can be, James needn't know. I'll still love you, still come and see you..."

"Do ya mean i'? I don' wanna lose ya. I' hur's jus' thinkin' abou' i' love." She whimpered burying her fce in Coral's chest where she'd been laying peacefully.

Smiling lightly Coral nodded and kissed the top of Nellie's head "Course I do. I hate seeing you hurt so much and I couldn't just let you fall from my life just like that. How could I? I love you too much Nellie Lovett. You've caught me under a spell and I'm stuck.."

Nellie smiled some kissing lightly along her chest stroking her side gently. "Well tha's a good thin' t'hear. I can' bear the though' of bein' withou' ya."

"You'll never be without me." Whispered Coral as she shut her eyes, a smile lingering on her lips "I'd fall apart without you; I wouldn't ever be the same. I'd be so... numb. Lost."

Nellie held her tighter kissing gently over her smooth skin laughing some as Bella started crying. "I'll ge' her love." she murmured getting up already.

"Thanks dear." Smiled Coral as she sighed lightly, her skin tingling lightly from Nellie's kisses "As much as I hate that noise," she laughed before she rubbed her head as it oddly started to ache "I missed it. Alot. Was too quiet at night."

Nellie laughed some gently lifting Bella and calming her, kissing her head gently, and going back over to Coral taking her previous place atop of her again.

Smiling lightly Coral leant in and gave Nellie a kiss before she wrapped her arms around her "Me and you shall walk later. On the beach, I've missed spending time on our little bit of sand." She sighed and rubbed her still aching head.

"Anythin' ya wan' love. M'glad to oblige ya dear." Nellie murmured shifting some as Bella started crying again tugging at Coral's dress.

Laughing Coral stroked her daughter's cheek "You hungry?" she asked before she lifted Bella out of Nellie's arm "You're going to be one beautiful girl. Just like my Nellie. Going to be my mini pale angel." She grinned at Nellie before she started to undo the laces to the upper of her dress, Bella tugging at her hair.

Nellie rolled her eyes smiling and shifting more tugging the dress down for her. "Mmm. Beau'iful like her mother I think ya mean dear. Yer gorgeous."

Blushing Coral shook her head before putting Bella into place, letting her fed before she prised her daughters hands from her hair before she kissed lightly at her little fingers "No, I think she'll be a little beautiful woman. Just like my pie maker." She sighed happily before she looked to Nellie, her cheeks lightly glowing.

Nellie smirked kissing Coral's cheek. "Blushin' still love? S'nuthin' I haven' seen before. Haven' tasted." She whispered rubbing along Coral's thigh slowly.

Biting her lip Coral blushed harder before she hid her face under her hair before her toes curled at Nellie's touch, a shiver running down her back "I.." she shook her head and pretended to fuss over Bella trying to stop her cheeks from turning even redder.

Nellie laughed softly kissing along her jaw line gently. "Mmm. Tasted every inch o'ya darlin'. All o'ya jus' as delicious as i' always was."

Groaning Coral shut her eyes, her body unable to stop the tingle growing from between her legs before she snapped her eyes back open and finished off with Bella, her cheeks now a wild red "There." She muttered to her daughter and she got off the bed and put her back into her crib. Turning she rubbed her head, her teeth biting on her lower lip before she climbed back onto the bed and hugged Nellie close to her body, her dress still kept apart.

Nellie laughed softly watching her blush and move about with Bella before coming back to her. "Mmm. Hello there ya gorgeous delicious woman I love." She murmured kissing below her ear. "How can I help ya?"

Tilting her head Coral bit harder on her lip before she turned to Nellie and smiled "Ooh," she smirked tapping her lip with a finger "well, you could start," she grabbed Nellie's hand and placed it on her chest "by helping those. If you so wish.."

"Oh really? They seem more than fine t'me love." Nellie teased squeezing them gently.

Gasping Coral gripped Nellie's shoulder and shook her head "Hmm, they hurt. Quite alot. Need some tending to.." she croaked as she shut her eyes.

"An' how would ya like me t'do tha'? Wha' do ya wan' Coral?" Nellie whispered softly in her ear kissing just below it.

Biting her lip Coral smirked before she realised. Pay back. Nellie was getting her back from all those times of Coral's teasing and torturing "I-I.." she stammered holding Nellie's shoulders tighter in her palms "Oh god, so anything you want with them..lick them, bit them.. anything!"

"Mmmm. All tha' soun's perfec' love. Bu' wha' d'/you/ wan' me t'do righ' this very momen'?" Nellie whispered tracing her finger lightly over Coral's nipples smirking as she squirmed.

Shivering Coral leant into Nellie's fingers before she let out a soft whimper "I want you to ... just do it! Eat them! Lap me up, god just do it!"

Nellie laughed softly leaning down kissing along Coral's chest before taking her nipple into her mouth sucking slowly kneading the other.

Nodding happily Coral shut her eyes tight and let her hand wrap in Nellie's hair "Mmm.. Nellie.." she loved her breasts to be played with. It was her little weakness, anyone could own over her when they toyed with them, even Tom.

Nellie moaned softly into her skin biting lightly and sucking harder pinching her other nipple rubbing against her leg lightly wincing some at the touch.

"Yes.." moaned Coral before she took one of Nellie's hands and placed under her skirts before she slowly pushed the hand up her thigh "Now that place really, really hurts." She whispered letting the pleasure fill her up and eat her.

"Mmm. Tha's a real shame." She murmured shuddering at the soft popping noise that was made as she pulled her mouth from her breast. "Don' know which place tas'es be'er." She teased smirking.

Whimpering Coral pushed Nellie's hand up further "God, you little tease Nellie Lovett." She panted as she pulled Nellie down with her "I need you... so bloody much.. hmm, stop with the teasing!"

"Bu' ya have no idea how good ya look writhin' beneath me like ya are. Mmm. Such a bloody turn on ya are darlin'." Nellie murmured kissing down her stomach tugging Coral's dress down slowly before tossng it away.

Mewing lightly Coral bit her lip, of course she loved letting Nellie tease her but she wasn't going to admit that and be at the woman's mercy forever "Well," panted Coral as her legs began to part and her back arched up slightly "you're not half that bad yourself.."

Nellie tutted closing Coral's legs again. "No' so fas' darlin'. No' done toyin' with ya ye' lovely. Mmm. Like a ca' playin' with string."

Shaking her head wildly Coral tried to push against Nellie's hands "No...can't wait...now...please, Nellie." She groaned her eyes rolling back as her thighs and inners pulsed for more. More of Nellie's lovely touch.

"No love. No' ye'." Nellie whispered kissing along her stomach lightly raking her nails down Coral's thighs looking up at her.

Her moans got louder, her back arched up more; her hands snaked up the bed sheets to grip them behind her head before she let out a soft cry of pleasure as Nellie's skin brushed against hers. Turning her head she nipped and ripped at the bed sheets needing to take her roudyness out on something before she exploded.

Nellie grinned and pulled her hands away grabbing Coral's wrists and pinning them by her head leaning down pressing over her. "Wha's tha' love?"

"God, you're gunna die for this!" muttered Coral as she wrapped an leg around Nellie, pulling her in closer "Mm, god yes!" she moaned arching up, trying to nip at Nellie's skin before she panted really needing something to rip up.

Nellie laughed softly rocking her hips into Coral's some. "How badly do ya wan' me t'fuck ya Coral?" She whispered wickedly.

"Badly!" gasped Coral as she pushed her hips against Nellie's, her thighs becoming more then a little soaked "You've no idea...fuck... so, so badly."

"Wha' do ya wan' from me Coral? Hmm lovely? How do ya wan' me t'fuck ya? I know you'll like i'. How do ya wan' me love?"

"I want you to fuck me till I cannot stand!" groaned Coral as she tightly gripped onto Nellie's shoulders "Slide into me and do it, now, before I cannot stop myself my holding back..oh crap.. please!"

"Can' stop yerself from doin' wha' exac'ly my love?" She whispered teasingly into her ear stroking Coral's thigh lightly.

"From bloody coming all down my legs, please, do it now!" begged Coral her hand trying to push Nellie's higher to her soaking knickers.

"Mmm. All down yer legs? Bu' I haven' even come close t'touchin' ya dear. Ya wan' me t'fuck ya tha' bad?" Nellie teased nipping at her earlobe.

"Yes!" screamed Coral now unable to take the pleasure and excitement anymore. She was already so close and it was killing her to try and hold it back any longer "Fuck me! Now! Hard, make me scream."

Nellie bit her own lip shuddering and shoving three fingers into her quickly. "Good girl." She whispered moaning softly.

Crying out lightly Coral gripped Nellie's hand, shoving it deeper into her flesh as her inners pulled her in further "Oh bloody hell." She moaned her head tilting back, her eyes rolling back and her hips pushing onto hers and Nellie's hands.

Nellie grabbed her wrist pulling it away pushing her fingers in deeper and faster. "I wanna bloody hear ya scream. Now."

Shutting her eyes Coral moved her hips quicker onto Nellie's fingers, her breathing quicken rapidly before she moaned, gripping the bed sheets into her hands. Yes, she was so close but she wasn't going to let Nellie's take her that easily, not after all the torturing and foreplay that had just been put onto her.

Nellie quirked an eyebrow at her stilling her fingers inside of Coral smirking. "Ya be'er lis'en t'me. Don' wanna go ge'in' yerself in trouble dear."

"No! Nellie, don't.." whimpered Coral as she still rolled her hips against the fingers inside of her "Oh, please. I'm so close.. just fuck me now! I need to scream, oh god.."

"No. Yer gonna scream an' such when I tell ya so darlin'. Yer mine now." Nellie whispered curling her fingers. "Here an' now. Yer mine."

"Yes. All yours.." murmured Coral her head rolling around as her vision became cloudy and her breath was stolen from her lungs "Please. Now.."

"Say i'." She whispered rubbing inside of her gently. "I wanna hear ya."

"I-I'm all yours." Moaned Coral as she looked up to Nellie and quickly kissed her on the lips "All yours." She whispered near her ear before she held Nellie closer and groaned into her ear as she felt the fingers moving deeper into her.

Nellie moaned softly kissing her back and pumoing her fingers in and out of Coral faster and harder than before.

Widening her eyes Coral pushed her hips higher till they almost hit Nellie's stomach before the pleasure made her body shake and her hips buck as finally her inners pulsed as she came making her scream out wanting everyone to hear her before she collapsed back, her body shaking and sweat pouring down her forehead and back.

Nellie moaned softly continuing to move her fingers slowly for a bit longer and pulling them out licking them slowly savouring every drop of her.

"Hmm." Moaned Coral as she slowly looked up to Nellie before she smirked watching her lap up the fluids on her thin fingers "Taste that good do I?" she mused tilting her head before she slumped back down onto the bed, her chest heaving.

"Mmm. Mos' defini'ely dear. Scrumpcious." She murmured kissing down her chest and stomach disappearing between her legs greedily licking along her thighs.

Gasping and moaning lightly Coral wrapped her hands into Nellie's hair before she gasped lightly "Mmm. Nellie." She groaned feeling the hot flesh against her soaked thighs before her hips rolled up slightly.

Nellie moaned into her flesh licking higher up her legs before her tongue disappeared inside of Coral greedily lapping at her.

"Nellie!" gasped Coral as she felt a warm tongue plunge into her causing her to come right away. Groaning she slammed her hips forward before she panted for breath and rolled onto her stomach as she tried to steady her breathing, her hair sticking to her face.

Nellie moaned softly licking her up hungrily and eventually sitting up licking her lips panting softly.

Lifting herself onto all fours Coral slowly levelled her breathing out before she looked over her shoulder to Nellie "Next time don't tease so much!" she smiled lightly feeling a little light headed "I will pass out of one these days."

"Mmm. Ya know ya liked i'." Nellie murmured scooting closer to her kissing her back lightly running her hand along her backside smirking and smacking her lightly.

Raising an eyebrow Coral shook her head before she let out a little laugh and kissed her back. Slumping her body onto the bed she looked up to Nellie "Maybe I did, just a little bit." She was still panting "But I'm hardly able to take it anymore. I seem to get so over excited that I'm near to collapsing." She bit her lip in a little worry.

"Nuthin' t'worry abou' love. I promise. I wouldn' ever le' anythin' happen t'ya. I wouldn' ever. I love ya."

Sighing lightly Coral rubbed her head once more before she rolled onto her back "I know you wouldn't. I just worry about myself sometimes," she bit her lip "I get such urges to go back to my old way of life.."

"Tha's natural love. Bu' yer so much be'er than all tha'. Ya know tha' don' ya?" Nellie murmured frowning some.

"I don't know anymore." Muttered Coral with a little shrug before she stood up and started to pull her dress on. She felt sick. She didn't know what to do anymore and the urges seemed to becoming stronger, or was it just her mind messing with her?

Nellie frowned sitting up opening her mouth to say something but quickly shutting it and getting up pulling on some clothes herself fixing her hair up again and going out the door heading downstairs.

Coral sighed as she watched Nellie go before she oddly felt angry. Turning she grabbed a vase off Nellie's dresser before throwing it across the room. Scowling she felt tears build up in her eyes before she frowned and looked at the smashed glass on the floor. What the hell was that for? God, she was a fool. She was letting all this get to her a little too much.

Nellie jumped halfway down and frowned looking up hurrying back upstairs gasping opening the door. "Wha' the bloody hell was tha' fer?"

Looking up Coral bit her lip, two tears streaming down her face "I-I don't know." She whispered before she bent down and began to pick up the shards of glass "I'm sorry. I just ... sorry."

"Jus' bloody leave i'. I'll ge' i'." Nellie snapped pushing her hands away picking up the pieces carefully.

"Sorry Nellie." Muttered Coral as she brushed the tears away, why was she crying to begin with? She really needed to get a grip. Sighing Coral moved and sat down on the bed, her head in the palms of her hands as her forehead began to pound again. "God, knowing me it's my run up," she rolled her eyes "sometimes I hate being a woman."

"Jus' go downstairs." She snapped picking up the old vase to throw it away. It had been one of her favourites. One of the few things she'd taken with her from her home with her parents.

Coral went to snap back before she shut her mouth and walked past Nellie, scooping Bella up as she went. Going downstairs she had the urge to punch a wall, but held back in case she wound Nellie up more. Sighing she tugged into the kitchen, smiling she looked out the window as she was reunited with her beloved sea.

Nellie finished cleaning up and headed downstairs throwing the glass way and startng on breakfast. "I take i' yer stayin' fer breakfas' then?"

Turning Coral looked down before she shook her head "No, thank you. I'm not that hungry." She sighed and looked back out the window, oddly she felt a little sick at the thought of food.

"Course. Probably have t'ge' back t'yer husban' anyways." Nellie muttered making tea as well.

Groaning Coral rubbed her head before she nodded, giving a weak smile she quickly kissed Nellie's cheek and bustles past her feeling more than a little light headed now. Pushing through the front door she took in a few breaths before she shook her head and began to walk down the road once more to the hospital before she pushed through its front doors and went to James' room seeing him now stood up and walking around. Smiling she went into the room before she whimpered as her head pounded harder and she felt sick "God," she groaned holding Bella close as James came over "bloody head."

Nellie pulled back before she could kiss her cheek and got busy with breakfast and such.

"Ah there you are dearest. They decided to release me already. Said I had improved incredibly." James said getting dressed.

"That's great." Muttered Coral before she stood up and put Bella into his hands "Hold her for me a second." She sighed and rubbed her head lightly starting to feel alot sicker now, her face turning a little pale. This pain, this annoyance seemed too familiar.

James frowned scooping her up and looking at Coral worriedly. "What's the matter? You look dreadful."

Frowning Coral shook her head lightly, she couldn't be. Could she? Gulping she bit her lip before she rubbed her head once more "Just girlie time love." She muttered with a little smile.

"Maybe you should have a doctor look at you just in case dearest. I would hate it if you caught something from me."

"No, no doctors." She said quickly, her eyes widening a little before she bit her lip and sighed once more. "Like I said, just girlie time, nothing to worry about."

James suddenly frowned thinking. "Coral... when was your last... girlie time?"

Coral bit her lip before she quickly said "Oh, last month. I'm all fine, don't worry." She wanted to tell him later, just to make sure. She wanted to tell him at their home, both of them in each other arms "Let's get you home shall we?" she added with a smile.

"Are you sure?" James asked frowning and setting Bella down to finish getting dressed.

Grinning Coral picked up Bella, kissing her daughters cheek lightly before she looked to him once more "Course I am, I'd tell you otherwise. Now I'll get your bag for you and we'll go."

James sighed and finished fixing his hair and taking his bag following her out with a hand resting on her hip.

Looking up she kissed him quickly as they walked before they bundled into a carriage that was waiting outside "Now, if you feel faint or anything you tell me right away, or else. Ok!"

"Same goes for you dearest. I'm worried." James murmured kissing her cheek getting in with her.

Laughing Coral shook her head and brushed her fingertips against his cheek "Oh don't fuss. I'm just fine," she smiled lightly as the thought of it ran through her head "promise." She sat back into the carriage rolled down the roads and streets of the coast. Turning she looked out of the window they stopped, her eyes greeting her new house before she lowered herself from the carriage, paying the driver quickly before she went and opened the front door "Come on dear, let's get you inside and settled."

James nodded carrying Belle for her along with his bag and going inside with his wife. "Tell me what's the matter."

"Nothing!" laughed Coral as she led him upstairs, taking Bella from him before she put her in her cot. Smiling she kissed his cheek before quickly she ran into the kitchen pretending to get a glass of water as she looked over their hung up calendar. Biting her lip she stood in the doorway watching him for a few moments before she finally spoke out "James," she muttered as he unpacked his bag "I-I...I think I'm pregnant..."

James looked over dropping a pair of trousers. "W-what? Your...pregnant? I- Do you mean it?" He exclaimed laughing going over picking her up spinning her about. "Oh Coral. You have no idea how happy you make me!"

Sighing in relief Coral gripped onto him and nodded "I'm sure of it. I've had all the same pains all day that I had with Bella, and I'm behind, just looked at the calendar." She laughed happily "And the fact that you had me so many times would've helped out."

"Well it would have to have been that first time. You wouldn't feel all that this quickly. So you're farther along then you thought." James said thinking and smiling kissing her again.

Nodding Coral kissed him back and looked down at her stomach "I guess so. Looks like you really did catch me first time round." She smiled letting her fingertips trail over her belly.

"This is brilliant Coral." James murmured kissing her again. "Grab Bella. We should go and gather our things up. Move as soon as possible."

Sighing Coral rubbed her head "Oh, but we're here already. I can go back in the week and get what we need. Can't we just stay in our lovely new house for a few days before we start going to the old house?" she rubbed her head harder as it started to ache "I don't feel well." She whimpered.

"No. Come along Coral." James said grinning and picking her up carrying her out to the carriage and going back in to get Bella.

Swearing at him she shook her head as he came back with Bella "You're a little too excited." She muttered "And you're not to tell anyone, not till I'm really sure. It's our secret." She added her mind going directly to Nellie before she felt sick at the thought of her friend finding out she may be carrying James' baby.

"Anything you want Coral. And of course I'm excited. I had mine taken. I'm just glad to truly start over with this little family we already have going on." James said kissing her cheek as they started moving.

"Hmm, but you're not the one who has to carry it for nine months or put up with the wild mood swings or the throwing up everywhere." She said pointing at him before she leant over and fussed over Bella "Would you like that little one? A brother or sister to boss about?" she smiled and kissed her daughters cheek. "Just don't get too excited," she said looking up at James "I'm not too sure. Just a feeling.."

"You have atleast a month gone already dear. So be glad." James leaned in kissing her gently and smiling holding them both closely as they eventually pulled up to their old home.

Biting her lip Coral shrugged her shoulders lightly "Well, I guess so." She looked down at her belly before they stopped. Helping her from the carriage James took them both into the old house before he quickly started to grab their stuff. Taking Bella from him she smiled down at her old daughter for a few moments before she bit her lip "I'm scared James." She whispered looking down.

James frowned going over to her kissing her cheek. "There is nothing for you to be worried about darling. I won't let anything hapen to either of you. Understand me?"

Shaking her head Coral looked up to him "What happens if it's like the last time? I hated Bella, didn't want to touch her... even took drugs with her in the next room." She looked up taken in his shocked expression "I used to be addicted to them, father and Tom brought me up on them. I'm scared I'll go back to that life, scared I'll hurt whatever baby is inside of me."

James sighed shaking his head leaning down kissing her gently. "I won't let that happen Coral. Never. I am so proud to be your husband. You've had to go through so much. And look at you now. Strong as ever."

Smiling lightly Coral kissed him back "Can we just get the stuff and go?" she asked her eyes a little teary at his kind, loving words. He was too good to her in so many ways; she didn't deserve him at all.

He laughed softly kissing her again. "You really are a trip dear. No. We have to stay here for a bit. Gotta take care of business. Sign over the house."

Groaning she walked past him "I cannot stay here forever," she muttered sitting down at their old table "if I am more then I month gone then I'll start showing soon...I don't want Nellie seeing, it'll hurt her and it'll cause more arguments," she rubbed her head and rocked Bella "I cannot deal with any sort of trouble at the moment."

"It won't take long dear. Besides you need to say goodbye to her. We are leaving. Selling this old place and moving into the new house. For good."

Looking up to him Coral bit her lip, she knew that she must do as her husband asked no matter how kind he was to her, at the end of the day she was his wife for now on. Nodding she let a tear run down her face "I'm still going to see her from time to time, she's still my friend." She sighed and looked down to Bella "I'm not going to push her away from my life. Ever."

"Then you'll have to tell her about the baby. It isn't your fault if she gets upset or anything. You didn't do anything wrong. It was fate." James murmured kissing her lightly.

Of course he was right, as always and she had to agree with him but this was her Nellie she was talking about, the woman she promised she'd never hurt and now here she was having a baby with someone else. "I guess so." She whispered as she turned her head from him "I'll leave it a few days..not like I'm going anywhere in a hurry."

"I thought you wished to leave soon. We can be out before the end of the week. Just have to start packing things now. I've already got the maids started on the linens and their own things."

"Like I just said," she muttered a little viscously "I'll wait a couple of days." She felt angry again, annoyed, damn the bloody hormones that were slowly over taking her body. Sighing she held Bella in one hand before placing her forehead into the other.

James smiled some moving behind her rubbing her shoulders gently kissing her cheek. "Relax dear. That's all you need to do. Relax."

"You try bloody relaxing when you've got to tell someone who loves you that you're carrying another person's baby while we move away." She hissed her eyes closing at his touch "And then there's the fucking hormones, my stomach getting huge and the non stop crying, throwing stuff around and chucking my guts up!" she snapped before she shook her head "Sorry. I didn't mean that."

"I know you didn't Coral. I know. Stop fussing so much. You'll look gorgeous pregnant. I cn imagine you now." He smirked kissing her lightly.

Scoffing Coral rolled her eyes at him "Don't even bother. I look a state. Skin stresses and I look like a bloody melon."

"A gorgeous melon carrying our child."

"Shut up." She laughed lightly before she raised her eyebrows with a smirk "Aww, you're going to be all sex depraved!"

"It will be more than worth it though love." He mumbled kissing her again.

Giggling against his skin she kissed him back, her spare arm wrapping around his neck "Maybe for you, but I'm going to struggle." She smirked pushing her lips harder into his.

James grinned wrapping his arm around her waist helping to hold Bella up with the other.

Standing up she pushed against his body, her lips crushing into his before she smiled lightly "Though, I'm not showing," she grinned wildly "not just yet."

"You have to tell her Coral. She'll find out eventually you know."

"I know." She whispered pulling away from his body "Tomorrow. I promise." She quickly shoved Bella into his hands before she shook her head, tears bursting from her eyes before she ran upstairs and locked herself in the bathroom. Sliding her back down the door she fell to the floor and curled in a ball. The hormones, the upsets, the arguments, the baby it was all too much for someone like Coral to handle.

James sighed and got Bella put to bed and undressed himself eventually sliding into bed and falling asleep waiting up for her.

Coral continued to sob on the bathroom floor for a few more hours before she became too tired to even care. Sitting up she brushed some of her tears before she got up, unlocked the door and went into her room. Sniffing she looked to James quickly before she sat herself on the edge of the bed, her head in her hands.

James didn't notice fast asleep curled up on his side facing her pillow as the sub started to come up.

Feeling the sun hit her back Coral turned to look at James before she gently leant over and kissed his cheek. Sighing she got up, checking on her sleeping daughter before she went back into the bathroom and started to run a bath. Pulling her dress off Coral looked at herself for a few moments before she gasped lightly at the ever so tiny bump on her stomach. Leaning closer she felt the all to knowing urge to touch it before she bit her lip and put her hands by her sides as she turned and headed into the bath as it continued to fill up.

James walked in and smiled pulling off his pants and sliding into the tub with his wife wrapping his arms around her waist.

Shaking her tired head she leant against him, her body and mind weak "I'll tell her, today." She croaked gently, her voice breaking a little.

"I'll pack up the guest room and watch Bella for you dear." He murmured kissing her neck.

Nodding slowly she pulled out of his grip and leant against the side of the bath, her head leaning down so her hair fell in the water. She looked a state, ill even and she couldn't help thinking that James was a little pleased that Nellie would have to be told "Fine. Whatever you want." She whispered trailing her fingers in the water, her eyes unable to snatch glances of her tiny belly.

James looked over at her smiling and leaned in kissing her cheek. "It's better this way. You know that." He said getting up and pulling a towel on.

Rolling her eyes she gently washed her body before she got out after a while, a towel pulled around her body before she began to slowly dry herself. Turning she left the room, grabbing one of her old dresses as she went before she quickly tugged it on. Looking at herself in the mirror she shrugged at her wild hair, the heavy bags under her eyes and the redness from crying "Well," she muttered to herself as she left her house, tugging over to Nellie's before she knocked on the door though she knew she could quite easily walk through the back door "here goes."

Violet answered the door as her and Billy were about to head out to school. "Wha' are ya doin' here? An'why are ya knockin'?"

It took Coral a few seconds to take in what Violet had just told her, god she needed some sleep. Looking up she shrugged and closed her eyes, rubbing her aching head "Oh, just wanted...you're mother." She muttered "She...I...she awake?"

"Yeah. She wen' up t'have a bath. Spilled coffee all on herself a' breakfas'." She murmured heading out past Coral with Billy.

"Thanks." Muttered Coral as she went passed Violet and walked into the house. Shutting the door behind her she held back her tears and the urge to throw up before she slowly tugged upstairs. Turning on the landing she paused outside the bathroom door, her stomach turning, her heart pounding, this was it, goodbye Nellie. Bringing a shaky hand up she knocked twice on the door before she let herself in, quickly shutting the door behind her as her breathing increased.

Nellie jumped some just as she was stepping into the tug and covered herself in a towel. "Who the bloody- oh. I's you love." She said smiling gently. "Come t'join me?" She smirked putting the towel up and sliding into the water.

Smiling lightly Coral went to say yes before she closed her mouth and shook her head "No, thank you. Had one not long ago." She muttered pointing to damp parts in her hair. Her eyes wondered over her beautiful Nellie before her mind went off into its own little world, her mind and body now exhausted before she snapped back and bit her lip before she looked to Nellie who seemed to have a frown on her face as she watched Coral.

Nellie shrugged and started washing herself asking her something before frowning and looking up at her worriedly. "Coral? Ya alrigh' love? Yer no' answerin' me."

Looking up Coral frowned for a moment before she rubbed her head "Sorry love. I didn't get much sleep last night," she sighed before quickly adding "been thinking." Groaning she felt her stomach twist, her belly content trying to push up her throat before she shook her head attempting to hold it down, tears lightly building in her eyes "I'm so sorry." She croaked.

Nellie frowned more getting up and pulling a towel on going over wrapping her arms around her. "Wha's the ma'er with ya love? Sorry fer wha'? Nuthin's happened dear. I's jus' a vase."

Biting on a shaky lip Coral buried her head into Nellie's neck a stiff sob escaping her lips "Not for that, though I am sorry for that. I've done something terrible, I didn't mean to! But, it's going to hurt you so..."

Nellie frowned more holding Coral tight. "Wha' are ya talkin' abou' love? Wha' did ya do?"

She felt like she was going to throw up, she felt like she wanted to smash up the bathroom in anger and pain. Crying lightly she pulled back a little and shut her eyes "I'm...I...I'm pre- I'm pregnant."

"Y-yer... wha'...bu'... Coral..." She stepped back looking down lost remembering to keep her towel up.

"I'm so sorry Nellie, truly I am." Coral whispered as she leant against the door behind her one more, tears streaming down her cheek before she couldn't hold it down any longer. Cupping her heads she quickly moved to the toilet before she shoved her head down it and threw what was left of her stomach content.

Nellie shook her head going over kneeling beside her holding her hair away and rubbing her back gently.

"I'm so," she sobbed through throwing up "sorry!" gasping she gripped onto Nellie before her stomach calmed and she pulled back and lightly brushed at her mouth. Looking up she caught Nellie's eyes before guilt and shame ripped over her body.

"Hush love. I's no' somethin' ya can exac'ly control." Nellie murmured taking a cloth and wiping her mouth for her and kissing her cheek. "M'no' upse'. No' really love."

Looking up Coral smiled lightly before she sighed and slumped her head onto Nellie's lap, her fingers gripping to her dress "I wish I didn't mess you around like this," she whispered her body now drained of everything "I wish I didn't have to move or do this to you.."

"Yer still movin' then?" She asked looking down. "When?"

"Don't know, sometime this week." Coral whispered as she gripped harder onto Nellie "But I'll visit you, every weekend... or something like that."

"Yer leavin'... this week. Ya weren' gonna tell me were ya?" Nellie murmured pulling away standing up.

"Course I was." Groaned Coral as she slumped on the fall "Do you think I would just walk away and not tell you?"

"Hones'ly? Yes. I do. Ya should go." Nellie said softly going out of the bathroom.

Looking up Coral watched her go before she pulled herself off the floor. There wasn't any point of fighting anymore, it was over, and Nellie didn't want her. Slumping out the room Coral rubbed her head before she went back over to her house, boxes now filling the living room. Groaning she weaved round them before she slumped at the kitchen table and rested her head on its wooden surface, her eyes lightly closing.

Nellie changed clothes and headed down going out and down to the pub again.

James came down grinning seeing her. "Guess what dear? We already have everything packed and ready to go."

"That's nice." She muttered closing her eyes tighter wanting nothing more than to just fall asleep where she couldn't think at all.

James smiled as the carriage was packed and he settled Bella in picking up Coral kissing her cheek. "Here we go."

Moaning lightly Coral turned her head into his chest before she quickly looked back at her old house, a part of her wanting feeling as if she was losing part of the family before she sighed and slumped in the carriage her hands gripping tightly to him.

"Just sleep Coral. When you wake we'll be home. Curled up in bed together happily. Where we'll be for the rest of our lives."

"But if I wake up..." she sighed softly and cut her sentence off before she slumped deeper into his soft shirt and fell asleep, her body and mind finally resting.

:( aw, sad much.
So, thats Nellie without her Coral, bless her.
We'll have to see how they both cope with that.
Isnt James lovely though, he's great! (Y)
! :P
