Well, look at this! An update! 'Bout time, right? I know. It's been FAR too long since the last. So I'm making it up to you by making this a long one. And it's a bit of a smutty chapter as well. (Actually, it's RIFE with it, truth be told.) So you know the rule! Be of legal age, or be gone! All others, happy reading! And Happy (pre-)Friday! :) Reviewers! I love the feedback! Thank you SO SO much! You always make my day! :D
Soon, breakfast is ready, and Pepper plates up the omelet for each of us. I take both plates from her, and move to the breakfast bar on the other side of the island. She follows with a cup of coffee in hand for me, and a cup of hot water with a tea bag steeping in it for her.
We dig in, and go quiet for a few minutes as we eat. I guess I didn't realize how much I'd worked up an appetite. It's hard not to wolf this down. But then again, I have this problem with anything she makes. Though problem isn't the right word. It's more of a...luxury. Yeah. That's the right word.
I catch her eyeing me, and giggling.
I cock an eyebrow, trying to look unphased. "What?" I ask with my mouth full.
"Hungry?" she asks, with a knowing smirk.
"Starving," I answer, and she giggles again. I finish chewing and swallow before I speak again. "You make me work hard for your affections, Ms. Potts. Makes a fella build up an appetite," I tell her, matter of fact.
She smiles at me. "Oh, I'm well aware," she answers, with a coy smirk as she takes a sip of her tea. "And that's the point, I believe. Isn't it, Mr. Stark?" she teases.
I grin. "Yes, ma'am. And just so you know? I have no problem with that," I reply. "Wanna know why?"
She sets her mug back down, and leans into me, looking intently into my eyes. "Go on. Enlighten me. Why do you have no problem with it?" she asks. "I'm dying to know."
I finish my last bite, wipe my mouth with my napkin, and throw it on my plate. (Lordy! I can't believe I'm finished already!) "Well," I purr, leaning intently into her, and putting both hands on the sides of her seat to brace myself. "It has a little something to do with the fact that..." I pause, teetering my head from side to side. "You've...got my heart? So that makes me want to work hard," I finish.
I see a spark of surprise in her eyes, like she was expecting some goofball answer out of me instead of...well, this. A soft gasp leaves her lips, and she smiles sweetly at me as her eyes go glassy with what looks like tears.
"Uh-oh, now I've done it," I mutter, give her a teasing smirk. "What. This is a surprise to you or something, Potts?" I joke.
She giggles bashfully at me, as a tear escapes and rolls down her cheek. I raise my hand to wipe it away with the pad of my thumb, and give her an adoring smile. She swipes at another one on the other cheek. "It's just...I wasn't...expecting...you to..." she struggles to explain. "And it could just be crazy pregnancy hormones making me overly-emotional, too, but..."
"Nope," I object, cutting her off. "Trust me. It's just you being deeply moved by the spontaneous profession of my undying love. That's all. Come on. Credit where credit's due," I joke, tongue-in-cheek.
She chuckles. And I lean in for a kiss. She cups my cheeks and kisses me back.
"Love you," I murmur, when the kiss breaks.
She smiles, and strokes my cheek with one of her thumbs. "I love you, too," she murmurs back.
I pull back. "So?" I ask, resting my elbow on the counter top, and my temple on my fist, giving her an inquisitive look. "What are your big plans for us, now?"
She shrugs, and shakes her head. "I...don't really have any," she answers. "Why? Do you have any ideas?"
I work my jaw in thought for a moment, and then shift my eyes outside to the pool. It's supposed to be hot today. And that water looks glorious. I flick my eyes back to hers, and give her a mischievous smirk. "I...could probably come up with something, yeah," I reply.
XxXxXxXxXx
Convincing Pepper to leave the breakfast dishes for later, I grasp her hand and lead her outside to the pool. The sun is bright, it's bluebird skies, and the temperature is already starting to rise. In a word? These conditions are perfect for what I have in mind to do...to her.
I break away from her, and she watches me curiously as I make my way toward the lounge chairs. I pull the cushions off of three of them, and line them up on the deck in a rectangular formation, with one turned perpendicular to the others in order to line up with the edge of the pool.
"Hmmmmm," she purrs, as I work. "I've gotta tell you. It doesn't take a genius to figure this plan out."
"Oh? You think you know what I wanna do, huh?" I ask, cocking an eyebrow at her.
She gives me a wry smirk. "Well, don't I?" she asks. "I'm naked. You're naked," she says, gesturing to us both respectively. "We're outside. And you're making what appears to be a bed out of patio furniture cushions. So...yes. I'd say outside sex in definitely on the agenda," she jokes. She looks around. "And good thing we don't have any neighbors nearby! Or we might get arrested."
"Yeah. Good thing," I jokingly agree. Then I shrug. "Then again, if we did have nearby neighbors, we would've been arrested long before now. Or at least, I would have," I remind her, gesturing to myself. "Remember that one birthday party I had? When me and half the Lakers' cheerleaders all stripped down to play Naked Twister on the lawn? And then..."
She splutters, and make a face in disdain, waving her hands to get me to stop talking. "Whoa. Okay. Could've done without recalling that memory," she says. "And you're in danger of ruining the mood. I don't need reminding of your previous..." She waves another dismissive hand at me. "Gallivanting," she concludes.
This time, I splutter and chuckle at her. "Gallivanting?" I ask. Then I teeter my head side to side in consideration. "Okay, I guess that's fair," I say. I walk over to her. "But let me ask you this. Are you prepared to do a little gallivanting with me of your own?"
XxXxXxXxXx
"Ohhhhhhh, yes! Oh! Yes!" Pepper moans. Her back is arched, her hands are running up and down her body, and I'm working furiously between her legs. Or rather, my mouth is. Let me paint the scene.
The bottom half of me is in the water, and the top half is propped up on the deck by my elbows. Pepper's on her back, on the cushions I've so lovingly arranged, mind you, with her legs spread wide. And I'm devouring her.
She moves a hand down her body to wind her fingers tightly in my hair, her moaning increasing as her pleasure ascends, and I take the opportunity to tighten my grip over the top of her thighs, pulling her harder into my mouth. She squeals, and her legs begin to tremble. "Oh God! Oh! God! Oh! Tony! Yes! Yes! YEHHHHHHHHSSSS!" she howls.
I smile at how much she's enjoying what I'm doing, and how much I'm enjoying myself as I savor every bit of her, lapping and flicking my tongue across her gorgeous folds like I'm eating a Good Humor bar. A really good Good Humor bar.
When she starts to come down, I feel her suddenly make a move to sit up, her chest heaving. Her eyes are wild, and in a way, (a really exciting way) it kind of startles me. My eyes widen at what I can only guess she's going to do. All at once, she breathlessly lunges forward to cup my face in her hands before she plunges her tongue into my mouth, kissing me hard. I moan in response to how hot this is- her instantly wanting to shove her tongue down my throat after I've been completely immersed in her flavor. It isn't the first time. Not by a long shot. She told me long ago that it turns her on like no other to be able to taste herself on me. So, of course, I would want to serve her sexual desires in whatever way possible, correct? I mean, what kind of boyfriend would I be if I didn't? Hey. I'm only trying be accommodating here, people.
She pulls away from the kiss, still panting, and grins at me. "That was amazing. And you taste delicious," she purrs, still out of breath.
"Correction, you taste delicious," I purr back. "And thank you. You know how I always strive to do my best."
She chuckles, and kisses my lips once more. Once the kiss breaks, I move to wrap my arms around her middle, and I lay soft, tongue-flicking kisses along her neck and down her chest. Her skin tastes faintly salty, as I'm sure she broke a sweat just now- not only because of what I was doing to her, but also because the mid-day sun is beating down on us now. She wraps her arms around me, and closes her eyes, moaning softly in approval of the affection, and enveloping me in the heavenly scent of sex, and her saltly-sweet sun-warmed skin. It's exquisite.
"Tony?" I hear her murmur after a moment, and I pause what I'm doing to raise my head to look up at her.
"Hmmm? What, baby?" I murmur back.
She smiles mischievously at me. "Your turn," she purrs.
XxXxXxXxXx
Moments later, I'm sitting on the cushion that's at the edge of the deck, feet in the water, with Pepper's hair gathered messily in my hand, which is resting on the back of her head as it bobs up and down in my lap. And might I say, she's doing a spectacular job. The second her mouth sheathed me, I dropped my head back, and a big dopey grin came over my lips. God, she's so good at this.
She flicks her tongue along the underside of my shaft, and I inhale sharply through my teeth as a pleasure-soaked shiver courses through my body. I then pop open my eyes, and raise my head to look down at her. She looks up at me with a coy smirk, and we keep our eyes locked on each other as she continues working me, her hand and mouth moving in tandem.
I set my jaw, as I can feel ecstasy start to build up. "Oooo yeah, baby. You're so good at this. You're so beautiful. Fuck," I mutter. I bite my bottom lip, not wanting the pleasure to end, but fearing I won't be in control of that in the near future.
I think Pepper senses how close she's bringing me to the brink, and how quickly she's managed to do it, so she increases her efforts. I huff. "Yeah, Pep. Ohhhhhhhhh fuck, I'm gonna...hoooo, yeah. Mmmmmmm," I moan incoherently.
She purrs wantonly in response. Then she abruptly pulls her mouth off of me with a hard schluck, and gives me a few fervent strokes. She's staring at me, her eyes brimming with white-hot desire, much like they did after I'd finished pleasuring her. "Give it to me, Tony. Give it to me. I want it," she begs.
I nod emphatically at her, my jaw still set. "Yeah? You want it right now, baby?" I grunt.
She responds by biting her lip coyly and nodding, giving me a pleading look. I bend forward, clasping the back of her head in the palm of my hand, and crashing our lips together, aggressively kissing her, our tongues intertwining and our teeth practically gnashing each other's lips to pieces as we're so hot for each other right now. She backs up, and I slide into the water, our lips still locked.
I grab her around the waist, and yank her to me. She squeaks in surprise, and breaks the kiss to look at me, an excitable smile on her face, her eyes daring me to make my next move. I give her a wild, taunting smirk, and grip her ass as I pull her up into my arms. She instantly wraps her arms and legs around me, and we crash our lips back together again, our tongues diving in and out of each others mouths with sheer, blinding desire, her hands snaking up and down my body and through my hair. I swivel around, and slam her back against the wall. Honestly, I didn't mean to be aggressive, but it kind played out that way.
"Uh!" she grunts in response to my unintended force.
My hands instantly go up in surrender. "Sorry! Sorry. I...wasn't trying to...to hurt..." I mumble, her mouth still attacking mine.
"No! You're fine...you didn't...I just...Come here," she mumbles hurriedly back, tightening her grip on my body and pulling me back to her.
I nod in understanding, relieved I hadn't ruined the moment, and wrap my arms back around her as we continue to ravish each other for several moments before I break away from her mouth, and move my lips down her neck. She moans, and drops her head back, threading her fingers through my hair.
"God, I want you, Pepper," I moan against her skin.
"Yes!" I hear her chirp breathlessly in response. "I want you, too, Tony! I need you!"
Okay. That's it. I can't take any more. I raise back up, and kiss her mouth firmly again. She melts, moaning. Then, I break the kiss and spin her around so she's now facing the wall. I grip her hips with both hands, and thrust my rock hard member into her from behind.
"Huh!" she yelps, gripping the edge of the pool deck.
"Yeah, you want this? You want me to give it to you?" I breathe in her ear.
"Yes! Oh God, I need it! Give it to me," she begs.
I start fucking her, and she instantly begins to moan. Then she grabs one of the hands I have at her waist, and pushes it down between her legs, clearly wanting me to play with her. And I am not going to object.
I begin working her swollen sex with my hand as I simultaneously thrust, and she moans loudly. I tilt my head to run my tongue along the spot just under her ear, on her neck, before I move to nibble her earlobe. "Mmmmm. Tell me you want me, baby. Tell me I feel good inside you," I half-whisper, half-grunt in her ear.
She moans again, and drops her head back against my shoulder. "Yes! Oh God yes, I want you! I love feeling you inside me!" she pants, her voice breathy and high-pitched.
"Tell me you want me to make you cum. Say it, Pepper," I order.
"I want you to make me cum, Tony! Hard!" she replies.
Oh yeah. That little extra she adds drives me wild, and I groan with searing, impending pleasure.
She braces herself by white-knuckling the edge of the pool deck, hanging on for dear life as I grab her hips with both hands again, and go to town. We're grunting and yelping, and moaning, and screaming, the water sloshing all around us as we climax together. Finally, I release inside her, my whole body suddenly seizing, and I feel her muscles clamp around my manhood hard in response.
She's paralyzed, too, from what I see. Her eyes are squeezed tightly shut, but her mouth is open as it looks like she's trying to emit a sound, but just can't find the breath to utter it.
When my body has given all it can, and I'm finally freed from paralysis, I slump over her shoulder, chest heaving. I slowly pull out of her, completely spent. She thaws, too, and a rash of goosebumps erupts over her skin as I notice her shiver in response to the motion of me withdrawing from her body. Her breathing is heavy, and she rests her head on her forearms on the pool deck as she tries to catch her breath. I wrap my arms around her from behind and kiss the top of her shoulder. Then I rest my cheek on it, turning my head inward to look at her. She turns her head to look at me over her shoulder, and we start giggling.
"So?...Was that...hard enough...for you?" I ask breathlessly.
"Which part? The orgasm or the...apparatus you used to get me there?" she inquires.
I chuckle at her calling my manhood an apparatus. "Well, if you're asking, both I suppose?" I answer back.
I raise my head again to kiss her temple and then move around beside her to where I can rest against the wall. She floats over to me, and wraps her arms around my neck. I smooth my hands down her sides before wrapping them around her waist, and we gaze at each other, love-sick and grinning.
"Then, both were spectacular," she informs me.
I nod once in the affirmative. "Good. Then mission accomplished, Ms. Potts," I tell her. She giggles.
"Outside sex and skinny dipping? This was quite the plan you had for us, I must say," she teases.
"What can I say? It's a gorgeous summer day. So I figured a little outdoor activity was in order," I reply. Then I cock an inquisitive eyebrow. "Good choice?" I ask.
Pepper chuckles coyly. "What do you think?" she purrs before leaning in to kiss my lips.
I kiss her back, savoring the feeling of her in my arms for a moment before I push us off the wall, holding her tightly to me.
Pepper breaks the kiss and pops open her eyes to look around. "What're you doing?" she asks with a smile.
"Well, it isn't skinny dipping if you don't at least do a little swimming. Or floating, as the case may be," I tell her.
She giggles, and wraps herself around my body. I get us to the middle and then get my upper body upright again, holding her to me as we bob around.
"You know this position could prime me for round two," I say. "Just making you aware."
She smiles at me. "You are insatiable," she tells me.
"Hey. Can you blame me? I've got a very naked, very wet woman in my arms, right now. You don't expect any reaction to that?" I ask. It's true. Just the sight of her this way- all wet and tousled, her skin still flushed and rosy from having just come- it's starting to make me hard again. "And besides that? I can't get the picture of what you were doing to me out of my head," I say.
She gives me a curious look. "What do you mean?" she asks.
I scoff. "Please. The whole 'pool deck' episode? Are you kidding? It was like I was getting head from a mermaid," I reply.
This makes Pepper splutter and laugh out loud. I try not to laugh at her laughing at me. "Seriously!" I say, going on. "You satisfied a whole teenage fantasy for me right there! The whole thing about having a...a...maiden..."
"A maiden?" Pepper parrots, giving me a wry smirk.
"Yes! A maiden!" I reply, feigning exasperation that she would question my description. "From the...deep...who comes to rescue a poor, stranded, marooned sailor who..."
"Let me guess," Pepper interjects. "Is in desperate need of sexual gratification before she gets him off the island and back to his shipmates?" She's trying to keep a straight face, I can see. But I pretend like I don't notice.
"Not exactly an original scenario, but yes! Thank you! Now you're getting it!" I say, and she laughs out loud at me again. I chuckle at her giggling.
"Well, all folklore and fantasy aside, this mermaid is due for a nap," she says. "So, what do you say to retiring with me to the cabana for a little while?"
"I say 'ay, ay'. And land ho," I joke, making her laugh again. "And...then maybe round two?" I ask hopefully.
She smiles and nods. "It's definitely worth consideration," she agrees.
I nod once in understanding. "I'll take it," I tell her.
I float us back over to the edge, and she breaks away from me to climb up on to the deck. Once she's safely out of the water, I hoist myself out as well. She's only a few steps ahead of me, so I jog to catch up. And in one move, I scoop her up bridal-style into my arms. "Ahhh, gotcha," I say.
"Tony!" she cries, and then starts laughing. I chuckle back. She cups my face in her hands to kiss my lips as I walk us to the cabana, where I gently lay her on her back on top of the king-sized swinging bed, suspended by ropes at each corner from the peak in the ceiling. And she's right- it's the perfect spot for taking an afternoon snooze.
I climb over the top of her, and she looks at me coyly as I position myself between her legs, nudging her thighs open gently with my knees.
"Hey there, beautiful," I murmur, gazing into her eyes.
"Hello, yourself," she purrs in response, and wraps her arms around me as I go in for another kiss, simultaneously teasing her opening with my now semi-hard member.
We make out for several moments, as I run my hands up and down her body, the both of us moaning. I'm thinking it's going to be time for round two quicker than we thought, when she mumbles my name in warning between kisses. I begrudgingly break away to look at her, frowning. Cuz' I know what she's going to say.
She must see the disappointment in my eyes, because she gives me a sympathetic look, and cups my face in her hands. "I'm sorry. As much as I'd like to keep going, I really am tired. Exhausted, actually," she explains.
I nod and climb off of her, rolling to my back. "Got it," I say, bending an arm behind my head to lay on. I turn to look at her, and shrug. "You need your rest. No explanation needed," I tell her.
She gives me a grateful smile, and rolls over to look at me, propping herself up on an elbow. She lays a leg across my body while she stretches to kiss my lips. I kiss her back. "Thank you," she murmurs. "I'll make it up to you, I promise."
I smile, and use the tips of my fingers to brush a stray lock of hair behind her ear as she's looking down at me. "You already are. How great has our day been so far, huh?"
She smiles and nods, and then moves to climb over me and off the bed. "Pretty great, Stark. Pretty great," she replies, walking to a small chest of drawers a couple of feet away. I watch as she opens the second drawer in the dresser. "There it is," she says, as she pulls out a light blanket. "I knew there was a good reason why I put this out here."
"Haven't used it before now, I don't think," I say.
"I would hope you hadn't. Otherwise, with what other girl would you be sleeping outside, I'd like to know," she teases.
"Haven't wanted to sleep outside with another girl until now," I tell her, trying to be sweet.
"Right," Pepper says skeptically, as she climbs back on to the bed beside me. "Because who has time to sleep when there's Naked Twister to be played on the front lawn with the Laker Girls?" she jabs.
I inhale sharply through my teeth and wince. "Yeah, I probably shouldn't have brought that up, should I?" I say regretfully.
"Not exactly a cherished memory, no," she says, with a smirk. She rolls over so I can spoon with her, and she drapes the blanket over us before she wiggles her body to snuggle up to me (I smile to myself at how adorable this is). I lay my arm so she can rest her head on it, but bend it at the elbow allowing me to bury my nose in her hair. She settles in and sighs happily, and I tuck the blanket around us snugly before wrapping the other arm around her body and pulling her close.
I close my eyes, trying to settle in as well. But something is still lingering on my mind. So, after a moment, I speak. "Pep?" I say softly.
"Hmmmm?" she replies sleepily.
"Just so you know? I'd be happy to play Naked Twister with you, anytime," I tell her. She splutters and starts laughing, reaching behind her to smack me.
I flinch, jerking away to dodge the assault, smiling.
"Alright! Good to know! But now it's nap time, so stop talking and go to sleep. That's an order, Matey, or you won't get a second go-around from your mermaid. Do you hear me?" she jokes.
"Ay, ay. Shut up. Go to sleep. Got it," I reply, resuming my original position. "Sweet dreams, Ariel."
I hear a soft chuckle from Pepper. "Because of the..." I try to explain.
"Red hair. Yeah. I get it. Now, seriously? Can we go to sleep?" Pepper asks, trying to stifle her giggling.
"Yes! Stop with the interruptions already, Pep! My God! Can't get a moment's peace!" I tease.
