If It Was Meant To Be-Ch. 6
Jack had been out of the hospital a week now, he was recovering quicker than expected. Will, Grace and Karen had insisted on taking care of him when he returned home. And even though Karen was able to go back to the penthouse now that Stan was in jail, she still choose to stay at Jacks to take care of him.
She had gone home, occasionally just to check up on things, but came back as soon as she could.
`````
Jack and Karen where in the kitchen putting away the groceries they had just bought. Karen opened up a cabinet and Jack threw her a bag of pretzels. She giggled as she caught it and placed it inside, watching him dance around to the music that was playing from the radio. He wiggled over to the fridge and stuck some fruit inside. When he was finished he took out a bag of grapes, washed them off in the sink and then walked over to her at the counter. He grabbed at the grapes and popped one into his mouth, taking another and holding it up to her lips. She opened her mouth and took the grape from him, smiling.
"So you wanna go rent a movie to watch tonight, after you get back from court?" Jack asked her eating another grape.
"Yeah sure" she said sighing.
"What's wrong you don't wanna watch a movie?"
"No I do, I'm just nervous about going in to testify today, thats all" She said
rolling a grape around on the counter with her fingers.
"Oh, you just have to relax Kare, you'll be okay and it will be over before you know it" he said.
"I know.." she said looking down.
Jack pushed the grapes aside and got up off the stool.
"Come on" he said smiling as he grabbed her hand and pulled her up. He walked over to the stereo and put a CD in, a slow song began to play. He danced over to her, making her laugh.
"I'm not gonna dance with you if you dance like that" she said giggling Jack made a face like he was hurt, but then laughed with her.
"Come on, this will help you relax" Jack said to her as he put his arm around her waist, pulling her close she wrapped one arm up around his neck as he grabbed her other hand pulling it up close and entwining there fingers.
They swayed back and forth to the music and she leaned her head against his chest, underneath his chin. He rested his head on top of hers, closing his eyes and smiling.
She closed her eyes as well. He was right, it was relaxing her. She felt a sense of security there in his arms. As she leaned against him she could hear his heart beat. She began to slowly run her fingers up and down the back of his neck to there swaying of the music. As she did, she noticed his heart beat quicken. She leaned her head up to look at him and found him staring back down at her. Her heart skipped a beat as she looked into his eyes. She thought she saw a mix of love and lust flash through them.
There faces where extremely close as they stared into each others eyes. With every second that passed they seemed to move closer. Her heat beat quickened as well, now matching his.
He stared down at her and he felt an ache in his chest as his eyes focused on her lips. Finally he couldn't take it any more he leaned in, so close he felt her breath on his lips.
Just then Grace walked in through the door, her head looking down as she rummaged through her purse looking for something.
Jack and Karen immediately parted, shocked at her sudden entrance.
Grace looked up completely unaware of what she had just stopped from happening.
"Are you ready to go Kare? We should leave now to make sure we get there on time." she said looking over at her.
"...uh Karen?.." Grace asked
Karen snapped out of her daze
"Oh yeah, lemmy just go finish getting ready, I'll be out in a sec. Okay?"
"Okay" Grace said smiling at her.
Karen disappeared back into the room and came out a couple of minutes later in one of her three piece Armani suits.
"Ready?" Grace asked
"Yeah lets go" She replied. Karen walked over to Jack, grabbing his arm.
"Good luck" he said to her
"Thanks" she said back, reaching up and kissing his cheek.
"Um.." she leaned in closer to his ear. "Make sure your here when I get back, okay?" she said to him.
"Sure" he said to her, smiling.
She walked over to the counter picking up her purse and then over to join Grace.
"Bye" they both said walking out the door.
````
When they arrived an officer lead them in to a small court room. Not many people where there. He motioned for them to sit down. Karen stopped as she came face to face with none other than Stan. He stared at her, smirk on his face as he watched mixed looks of panic and disgust flash across her face.
Grace just stood there, unsure of what to do.
"Whats wrong, bitch" he said looking down at her. "Didn't think you'd have to face me again did you? You made a big mistake by leaving, you lost the best thing you ever had. Now you've got nothing, your just a pathetic..."
Karen backed away from him disgusted as she cut him off.
"How dare you. How dare you even look me in the eye, you bastard. It's one thing to hurt me, but to go after Jack...." she said, her throat burned as she held back tears, not wanting to appear weak in front of him.
"I never thought you'd stoop so low. Apparently I was wrong, but don't you worry about me. Jack and I will be just fine, spending all your money while you rot in hell." she said smirking.
Stan lurched forward raising his fist to hit her. Karen cowered back as Stans attorney ran over to him, stopping him before he reached her.
"Stan! Damn it! Don't get yourself into any more trouble than your already in!" his lawyer yelled at him, as he and three other lawyers held his arms back.
Grace ran over to Karen grabbing her arm, but Karen pulled away and walked right up to Stan. She raised her own hand quickly and slapped him across the face.
"Fuck you Stan" she said turning away from him.
He moved to get away from them but they held him back.
"Its not worth it Stan!" one of his lawyers yelled.
"Why the hell not! I've got nothing to loose asshole!" Stan yelled, as an officer restrained him and lead him over to his seat.
`````` When it was finally all over, Grace and Karen got back in a cab and headed home. Karen could vaguely hear Grace rambling on, on the way back. She couldn't pay attention, she was upset by her confrontation with Stan, and all she could think about was Jack. What would of happened if Grace hadn't walked in? She thought. "Don't be stupid, Karen." She scolded her self. "You know exactly what would of happened, we would of.......and then the full realization of what she was thinking hit her. Oh my God..he was going to...kiss me?! He...he has feelings for me....but he's gay isn't he? How could he...? What about..? Oh my God..."
``` Back at the apartment Jack was having a similar realization. He hadn't stopped think about her since she left. The longer he sat there the more he wanted her, it was beginning to drive him crazy. Did she want him as much as he did her? "She was going to kiss me.." he thought. He prayed that she felt the same and she hadn't just been caught up in the moment.
````` Karen and Grace stepped out of the elevator and Grace walked over to her door.
"Are you gonna be okay Kare?" Grace asked.
"Yeah honey, I'll be alright" Karen said giving Grace a small smile.
"Well I'll see you later then, I have to help Will clean" she said an annoyed look on her face.
"Alright, bye Grace" Karen said "Thanks for going with me" She smiled at her and watched as Grace opened the door and went in.
Karen walked over to Jacks door. She reached out her hand to the door knob and paused before finally opening it up and walking in. The blinds were drawn and the lights where off, with an occasional candle lit here and there. She placed her purse down on the coffee table and began to look around for Jack. When she opened the bedroom door he was standing there, waiting.
As soon as there eyes locked, all doubts, questions of sexuality and confusion about how the other felt about them disappeared. They quickly closed the distance between them.
They stood there, inches apart. Candle light the only thing illuminating them.
Tears began flowing down her face. They had both waited for this for so long and now here it was. Anticipation sending shivers down her spine. She felt his breath on her face and the faint sensation of his fingers drawing circles on
her wrist as she watched the candle light dance across the features of his face. There breathing became shallow. She watched the hunger in his eyes, telling her that if he kissed her now he wouldn't be able to stop, if he kissed her now, there was no going back.
His hands slid slowly up her arms and then across her collarbone, as if he where memorizing her by touch. He closed his eyes. Her hands slid up his shirt and over his torso. They where so close, so close they where breathing the same air. No words were spoken as he slid his hands down across her stomach and then to her hips, sliding down the side of her leg and then....
It was as quick as an intake of breath. His lips where on hers, pulling, reaching, tongues colliding, mouths melting. There passion so intense, tears, salty, began to stream down his own face mixing with hers. His hands were everywhere, stroking, rubbing, grabbing, finding, wanting. His lips on her neck, claiming. Her legs intwining with his. Clothing being shed faster than it was put on. Prada, Gucci and Armani puddled at there feet. Before she knew it they where on the bed.
She ran her hands down his back pulling him as close as she could, feeling like it would never be close enough. His hands running through her hair, down her back, over her chest, down her sides, up her neck. Leaving trails of fire over curves that where made just for his touch. Scents mixing, intoxicating. Hearts racing, eyes searching and immediately finding. Heads spinning, as they drown in each other. Who knew anything could feel so right, so perfect.
All she could think is why they hadn't done this before. His taste, hands tangling in each others hair. Whispers and screams and moans and promises. Eyes and lips and skin beneath her, over her, coming up beside her, all burning for one thing.
"Karen...." Jack quietly moaned. "...love you."
"Oh Jack.." she cried "I love you so much" As soon as the words left her mouth his lips crashed into hers, he captured her bottom lip in between his own, pouty and swollen, hot and intense. He moved over her, desire as strong as ever, as he cupped one of her breasts in his hands. His lips were now on her collarbone, kissing trails across it, burning his love for her into her skin. He felt her body tremble beneath him.
"Make me yours.." she whispered. He pulled her hair back kissing the side of her neck. "forever.." he whispered back.
Jack was amazed at how easily this came to him. He had never been with a woman before, and had it been any other woman he would of been completely clueless. But with Karen he didn't have to think. There was no wrong place to put his hands, there was no bad way to kiss her, his fingers never tired of tracing circles on the small of her back, never tired of tangling themselves in her chocolate brown hair. His lips never felt better then when they where pressed up against hers, or on her skin. Oh God her skin, so soft, supple, delicate, to
the arch of her back, the curve of her breasts, and the hollow or her neck. How could he of gone so long without this?
The night went on in a paroxysm of passionate love making. A tangle of limbs, a merging of souls, tastes, hearts, scents. Crying out into the darkness.
Two becoming one.
"yours..."
"...mine"
````
In the morning Karen woke to find there arms and legs still tangled together. She could still feel the heat coming off him. She breathed him in, smiling at the fact that mixed with his sent she could smell her own strawberry shampoo and Chanel number 5.
God she loved him, all of him. She stared at him, reaching her hand up and stroking his face, then sliding it down to rest on his arm, where she began to trace patterns across his skin with her fingers. Indulging in the fact that she could. The fact that at the moment she couldn't tell where he began and she ended, and the best part was that she didn't care to know. She was his now, but in a way she always was. From the first time they bumped tummies in Grace's office she had been his. She couldn't help it, it was wonderfully involuntary.
Jack opened his eyes, staring down at the beautiful sight that was before him, next to him, and completely wrapped in his arms. He smiled as he watched her fingers run up and down his arm. "Wow" he thought. All other words failed him as he looked at her. He couldn't believe how amazing it was to wake up to her this way, naked and yet completely comfortable, so close and yet the parts of his body that weren't touching her were aching to. The glow on her face, heavenly as she looked up at him and smiled. The love in her eyes took his breath away, never had anyone looked at him like that.
He leaned down and caught her lips with his. The kiss long and passionate. When he pulled away he smiled down at her.
"Morning beautiful" he said. He really meant it. He had never seen anyone more deserving of that word.
"Morning" she said softly, smiling up at him. He began to run his fingers lightly up and down her back. She snuggled closer, giggling as she wiggled her legs around between his, she loved the way it felt. He chuckled and kissed the top of her head as she nuzzled her face in his neck.
"I love you Karen" Jack said as she tilted her head up to look at him. "I really
really love you, I just want to make sure you know." He said.
"Of course I know poodle, I love you too, so much" She said smiling at him. "I've always loved you, I think I tried to deny it at first but I know since the
moment I met you that I loved you." she finished.
"I don't ever want this moment to end" Jack said. "I wanna spend the rest of my life with you Kare. I wanna be the one you introduce to other socialites at fancy parties. I wanna be referred to as you significant other. I wanna dance with you in our living room, I wanna pick out and decorate a christmas tree with you. I wanna walk hand in hand down 5th Avenue point out all the things in the Saks windows that I'm going to buy for you. I wanna make love to you on our kitchen floor. I wanna watch you walk around the house with my t- shirts on. I wanna wash your hair in the shower. I wanna lay around the house with you all day just for the hell of it. I wanna stay up all night and watch you sleep. I wanna have dinner with you on our balcony under the stars. I wanna watch you put make up on. I wanna line my shoes up next to yours in the closet. I want you to be the first thing I see when I wake up and the last thing I see when I fall asleep. I wanna be the one you reach for in the middle of the night. I never want to leave your side. I wanna look into your eyes and fall for you over and over again, just like I am now." Jack finished.
Jack watched as the most terrific grin lit up her face.
"Oh Jack....thats the best, most romantic thing anyone has ever said to me.." she said smiling.
"I want the same things" She said to him.
He hugged her tight, kissing her lips once more. He laughed.
"What?" she said smiling at him.
"Think of the look on Grace's face when we tell her we're together! Hah hahah ha. She makes 'em gay and you turn 'em straight!...or bisexual! hehe" Jack said laughing.
"Hehe, poodle! That's mean!" she said giggling "..but its damn funny! hahahaha" Karen laughed with him. "Oh honey! Lets go shopping to celebrate!!"
"Yay!" he said
Jack smiled, she was back to her normal self, even if normal wasn't normal for anyone else but them, that was the way he loved her.
