Chapter 42

I'll Save You

2009.

Interesting how I got into all of this. One minute, I'm hating her guts, the next, she is in my bed with me and we are having sex.

You read the right. She's in my bed with me and we are having sex.

Jadelyn, or Jade as she likes to be called now, is on top of me, and fingering me.

I never thought I'd see this day. I was beyond shocked and surprised that Jade came to my door.

The first thing I was thinking was 'what happened to her?'

Several minutes earlier.

I'm in the living room, watching TV and drinking coffee. Vinny's at a friend's house working on a school project, so I'm all by myself.

I'm not really paying attention to the show I'm watching, just looking on absent mindedly. I'm just so bored, but I have nothing to do to interest me.

It's raining outside too. A very gloomy day. The rain is coming down pretty steadily. The thunder is loud and frequent and the flashes of lightning are almost constant. Despite the loud noise, I still hear the sound of the door knocking. It startles me somehow. I guess I wasn't expecting it, since I'm used to the thunder.

I get up from the couch and go to answer the door. I open the door and see a rain soaked woman standing there, her head down. She slowly raises her head to reveal herself.

It's Jadelyn. Only she's changed her look. She has a piercing in her left eyebrow and her nose. She has numerous colored streaks in her hair as well. The thing that catches my eye is that she's been crying. Her face is stained with mascara and her eyes are red from crying. We just look at each other for a while. What happened to her? I think.

"She dumped me..." She finally chokes out. I grab her arm and pull her inside. I have her sit on the couch while I grab her towels and coffee. I come back and hand her the coffee, which she takes mechanically and I put the towel around her shoulders.

"What happened?" I ask, sitting down next to her. She just looks down at her coffee for a while.

"Her dad got a job in Arizona. She dumped me because she thought we couldn't maintain a long distance relationship." That bitch. I think as what I hear stings me. I rub her back to comfort her. She puts her coffee down on the table in front of her and suddenly starts crying again.

We sit there while she cries her eyes out. I just continue rubbing her back.

"I'm so sorry." I say.

"Why? You didn't dump me." She sniffles.

"Don't mean I still can't feel bad for you." I point out.

"I suppose." She says.

"Can I get you anything?" I ask her. She grabs her coffee and starts drinking it. It's probably cooled a little by now. It wasn't hot to begin with. She eventually empties the mug of coffee and hands it to me.

"More, please." She says. I nod and get up and go into the kitchen to get her more.

As I fill the mug with some more coffee, I hear light footsteps behind me. I turn behind me in time to see Jadelyn grab my face and force her lips on mine in a fierce kiss.

I don't kiss her back. I'm taken by surprise by her sudden move. So I push her off me.

"What the hell are ya doing?!" I ask her, panting. She stands there, her face confused, as if she couldn't believe what she just did either.

"I just don't know anymore. I'm just so confused." She moans. She sits down at the table and buries her face in her hands. "I keep thinking and I don't want to, but I can't stop. All I think about is Katey and I want her out of my head!" She shouts, slamming her palms on the table. I sit down across her.

"I want to help." I reply.

"Why?" She asks, looking at me.

"Why did you come to my house then?" I counter. She thinks on that for a few.

"I'm not sure. I didn't know where else to go." She replies.

"That kiss a few moments ago suggests otherwise. Why at you really here?" I ask her.

"I guess I came to see you." She replies. I roll my eyes.

"Such bullshit. Either tell me why you're truly here, or fucken leave, 'cause I'm tired of your shit with me." I tell her. She gets up and leaves the kitchen. I get up and follow her into the living room.

Suddenly, I'm pinned to the wall and her lips are on me again in a forceful kiss.

"Ugh! W-will...you...knock...it off, Jadelyn!" I grunt, pushing her off me again.

"My name is not Jadelyn anymore. It's Jade." She corrects, panting.

"Whatever! What it's your problem?! Why do you keep kissing me by force?!" I ask her, exasperated. She just shakes her head. "What's that supposed to mean?" I ask her. She shakes her head again. I raise my arms in confusion.

"I don't understand. I just want you." She answers.

"Want me?" I reply, unsure if I heard her correctly.

"I need to take her off my mind and you seem to be a good distraction."

"Gee, thanks." I snap.

"I didn't mean it like that." She says.

"Then what did you mean it by, then?" I ask. She ponders for a moment. "That's what I thought."

"I need something to take my mind off Katey. Somehow, thinking about you helps. I guess what I'm trying to say is that I somehow like and care about you enough that I can think about you and not worry about thinking about Katey." She explains. I ponder on her words for a moment.

"You like me?" I ask.

"Yes."

"Then prove it." I challenge her. She walks up to me slowly, not taking her eyes off mine. She's close to me now, so that I can see tears on her eye lashes.

She is so close to me now. I can't fight it anymore. I grab her face and pull her to me, our lips colliding. I can't fight the fact. I am and will always be, no matter what, in love with her. I let her know that by kissing her with everything I got. She kisses with equal fervor. Our breathing becomes heavy quickly as the kiss intensifies.

We pull apart to catch our breath. The room is full of the sound of heavy breathing and the faint rumble of thunder from the storm.

"What was that?" She asks, her face flustered.

"Me proving that I love you." I reply.

"I know; you don't have to prove anything to me, Rye."

"Yes, I do. I want you and I'm going to show you how much I do." I answer. I take her hand and lead her upstairs to my room. I close the door behind her and push her gently against the door. It's dark in my room. The only source of light is the semi opened curtains, showing the grey sky and the occasional flash of lightning. Even in the dim light, I can see how beautiful she is. In fact, she looks more beautiful in this light. Just beautiful.

I lean in and gently press my lips on hers and start kissing her slowly and softly, savoring each second my lips are on hers. She responds, but is a little eager to get a move on things.

"Patience my love." I whisper slowly and I start to kiss her neck, eliciting a soft moan from her. I move down very slowly, kissing just about every inch of her neck as I can til I reach her pulse point. I nibble there and suck a little before kissing there. She moans some more.

"You're good. Have you been practicing?" She asks.

"No, I've just been waiting for this moment for a long time." I reply. I back up and pull my shirt off, dropping it to the floor. The cold air attacks my exposed torso, giving me goose bumps, but I don't care. I walk up to her and start kissing her again. She wraps her arms around me and I feel her unhook my bra. The straps loosen and I pull back slightly to remove my bra. I hear the bra fall to the floor with a light thump and I press my body against Jade's, causing her to moan in excitement as my breasts touch her. I can't help but laugh softly. I pull back and take her hands in mine and lead her to my bed, walking backwards. I feel my bed on the back of my legs and I lie down, pulling Jade on top of me. We start kissing again and I start to remove her shirt, which she pulls off and throws on the floor. I reach behind her back and unhook her bra and she pulls it off and resumes kissing me, our breasts touching each other ever so gently. The feeling, the sensation of her breasts and nipples touching mine is amazing. I flip her so that I'm on top and I start kissing down her amazing body, from her tender neck, down to her ample breasts and flat stomach. I reach her pants and undo the button and zipper and pull them and her panties off, exposing her warm center. I kiss between her thighs, intentionally missing her clit, causing her to moan in pleasure and frustration.

"Please, don't tease me." She moans. I smirk and take a long, slow lick up her slit, causing her to shudder and moan. I pull back the folds, exposing her sensitive clit and I take another lick, going inside slightly. She moans some more and her hips involuntarily buck slightly. I then stick my tongue inside her and lick around, tasting her vagina and her bodily fluids. Jade starts moaning and squirming uncontrollably. She runs her hands through my hair and grabs ahold of it, holding onto it for dear life. I speed up a little and she keeps on squirming and writhing in ecstasy. She then eventually screams as her orgasm explodes out of her. She then starts groaning and relaxes. I pull out and climb up to her, where she grabs me and urgently brings me to her lips. "That…that was amazing. You have an awesome tongue, Rye." She pants.

"I do, don't I?" I reply, cockily. She nods slowly, breathing heavily. "But, I do want you to taste me." I sway. She smiles and pulls me to her and we start kissing again as she gently flips me over and she starts sucking on my throat. I'm pretty sure that's gonna leave a hickey, not that I care. She goes down and plays with my breasts for a while. I push her head down gently, telling her silently to go to my throbbing center. She complies and removes my shorts and panties. She spreads my legs and kisses inside my thighs. I can't help but moan as my oxytocin levels rise from excitement. Jade slides a finger over my throbbing slit and I moan in frustration. "Please, Jade. Please." I beg her. She complies by thrusting the finger inside me, causing me to moan in pleasure at the feeling. She pumps her finger and adds another one inside me and continues. She then pulls out and replaces her fingers with her tongue and starts licking me. My hips buck and I start writhing as she takes me over the edge as my orgasm slowly approaches. When it does, she helps me ride it out by continuing to lick me. She then stops and climbs back up, kissing my body along her way. I am almost motionless when she reaches my lips. "That tongue of yours, Jadey, is amazing." I say. She nods and we cuddle as we fall asleep in each other's arms.

I wake up and it's been almost two hours since we had sex. It was everything I expected it to be, perfect. She is amazing and I love her so much and, where is she? I notice that her arms aren't around me and I'm not feeling the weight of anyone else in my bed. I look around and Jade is nowhere in sight. I sit up and notice her clothes are gone. I get up and start to get dressed. That's when I noticed the note on my bra. I pick it and my bra up and read the note. It's from her.

Riley,

Having sex with you was amazing. I wish you and I could be friends. Maybe someday we will be. I just need time to process what happened to me, it's still new to me and it's hard. Please don't think that there is something wrong with you; there isn't; it's me. I'm going through a rough patch right now and I need time. But I want to try again at friendship with you. Call me sometime.

Jade XOXO

P.S. Your pussy tastes exquisite.

I smile after reading the note. She wants to be friends again! That's awesome! I understand her wanting to wait and all, I can wait. I'm patient. I'll wait a million years for her.

Well maybe not a million, but you know.
