Chapter 28

Finally daring to touch her, AJ could feel the hint of desperation in loving him. He didn't know why, but he wanted her to know that he was here for her. Tangling his hands in her amazing hair, he stroked her face with his thumbs as he watched her suck his cock.

Trying to take him deeper in her mouth she almost choked as he hit the back of her throat. She adjusted to the feel and breathed deeply through her nose and sucked harder as she brought her hand up and caressed his balls.

Pulling her away from him, AJ gasped, "Tessa, if you don't stop, there will be nothing for you to paint!"

Shocked at herself for getting carried away, she still looked longingly at his erection. "You're right, time to get to work. Now don't more a muscle."

"If you expect that of me then you had better put some clothes on!" he sighed, and laid his head back on the arm of the couch counting to ten...twenty...ah hell counting was NOT going to help!

"Put your head back up AJ. It's my painting and you'll do this my way!" she angrily said marching back over and reaching to adjust his head.

"Fine, Tessa, but please put something on!"

"I thought you would only pose nude if I painted you nude?" she asked standing over him. "What changed your mind, AJ, already tired of me?"

"No, but I don't think I will be able to lay here and look at you standing there with nothing on and not shoot this load you've build up! Why don't you open those bags I brought earlier and see if there is something there you might like to wear?" he nodded in the direction of the bags he had put near the couch hours ago with his eyes closed so he would not be enticed by her beauty.

"The presents!" she exclaimed running to the bags and quickly opening them with the enthusiasm of a child. "Shirts, you bought me shirts!" Jumping up she tried one on and it fit snugly around the breasts and reached just below her tush, but otherwise it fit "I love them, AJ, thank you."

"You're welcome," he said with his eyes still closed. Carefully he opened one just a slit to make sure she was dressed.

Wearing the shirt without it buttoned she headed back to work, "I hate to use any of these to work in, they will have paint on them before I'm done. I'll have to put back five of the ten to wear when I go out. I really do love them, AJ. Presents are rare and I don't take the lightly."

"I'm glad that you like them, Tessa. Now you won't have to steal them from your models!" there was just a hint of an edge to his voice.

"Oh, I probably still will, but none of them will mean the same as these do," she replied stroking the front of the shirt. "They know I only take their shirts to tease them, and when I do I pay them extra. It's my way of helping them and usually the shirts end up at the goodwill."

"Sorry, Tessa, I have no right to question what you do."

"I know it's boring sitting there so ask me anything you want. If I don't want to answer it, I'll tell you to skip that one and ask something else," she smiled as she mixed her paints. She was the happiest with her paints in her hands and the smell of them filling her nostrils. Well she used to be before she met AJ.

"Anything? How about why you think you might be in love with me?" he asked in his best, 'I'm a lawyer and you WILL answer my question' voice.

"I didn't say I was in love with you, AJ. I said I thought I was falling in love with you, two entirely different things," Tessa replied from behind the canvas.

"Would you care to explain the difference to me?"
