The Unseen Obstacle CH.12

I Disclaim

One Month Ago

She took one more look around her, before she bolted across the street and slipped inside Doug's building. Finding a key under signed posted by his door she let herself in.

She was too keyed up to relax so she didn't sit down, she just walked around and paced, it was great day to be Joey Potter.

Just that thought made her laugh, how many times had that ever happened in her life, she couldn't really remember that many good day before her Mom got sick, and after that it was far and few between. It used to be that all her good days involved Dawson, but as she got older she had to admit Dawson and moments that included him was disappearing from list. The new list involved Jack, Jen, and Pacey, and now Doug was the star

She finally sat down on his couch, and let her head fall back inhaling his scent in the fabric, who would have thought that the guy that her sister called Dorky Doug would cause her this much happiness.

And she was deliriously happy, he listened to rant and rave, or just babble. He supported each and every dream, and even helped her create some news one. He was going to be so proud of her, when he found out her news.

'" Now here's sight I like to see."

Joey turned and let her face erupt in a large smile there he was her happiness, and dressed to kill too. Who ever knew that the Capeside Police Uniform would garner just a high place on her fantasy list? "What do you like to see?"

He closed the door, and leaned against the archway, and gave a lazy smile. "You anywhere."

"Have I told lately that I love you?" Joey said as she jumped over the couch and into a loose circle of his arms.

Doug pulled her to him, and kissed her neck, moving her hair of the way so he could devote the attention to the creamy skin that it deserved. "Maybe but I still like to hear it."

Joey gave a blissful sigh, and she began massaging his shoulders, hating the fabric that separated her hands form the muscle she knew was beneath, but she knew what would happen if she tried to get him out of it. 'Joey you're too young for this', 'when you're ready, when the time is right'. If Douglas Witter knew how ready she was he would blush.

"When do you have to be home?"

"No curfew, I'm staying at Jen's and Gram's is out of town, and Jen and Jack are well… I don't want to know what Jack and Jen are doing cause it's probably illegal, and you be an officer of the court you'd be force to arrest them, and I really don't have to time to go visiting them at some Juvenile detention center"

"So you'll be at Jen's all alone till they get back in?" He stepped back and questioned her.

"Nope.",

Doug narrowed his eyes partly because he was suspicious but mostly because he didn't want to notice the desire in his eyes. God he wanted her, everyday since the first time he kissed he, he wanted her more and more, no amount of touching was often for him, but he always forced himself to pull back.

Loving Joey Potter and making love to Joey Potter were two different things entirely, loving her was safe, or as safe he could get, but the other. Making loving to Joey Potter could seriously end him, it would give him a taste of something he wasn't sure he could hold onto, she was something he wasn't sure he could hold onto. "So where are you going to be Josephine?"

"You know, I actually like it when you call me Josephine."

"Josephine."

It comes out a growl as it had a tendency to do, when she was treading on dangerous ground with him. "Here."

"Joey."

"Now now mind of the gutter, Deputy Witter." She stepped back into his arms running her hand up his forearms. "Haven't you ever spent the night with a woman and just slept."

"We're not all Dawson Leery."

"Well I should hope not, since I dumped his ass his twice." She leaned up and began placing tiny kisses along his collar bone. "All we're going to do is sleep Douglas……" She slipped her hand into his work shirt running a finger up and down his wife-beater. "Unless you want to do more?"

"Josephine." He started and began removing her hand.

"NO, Damn it, I should have a say in this, if this is a relationship then as part of it I should have a say, you can't just arbitrarily decided that we don't have sex." She stepped put of his arms and pushed him back." If I owed enough to love you then I'm old enough make love to you."

"It's just not that simple."

"Yes it is."

"What do you from me Joey?"

"I want you make love to me." " Don't keep playing this games with me Doug, if you love me show, but don't say the words and then limit the actions, if I didn't want you , I would have left , so please show me the same courtesy."

"Joey..."

"Save it Doug." Joey stormed over to the couch and grabbed her bag, skittering away from him when he reached for her, but she wasn't quick enough. He caught her and backed her against the wall.

" It's not that simple, is this really how you want to lose your virginity hidden away in my apartment while your sister thinks you're at Jen's and Jen thinks you god knows where, do you really want to celebrate our love when no one else knows about us, and make something that should be beautiful and wonderful seem like something ugly that needs to be hidden." He caressed her face, and closed his eyes resting his chin on the top of head." Cause I don't want that Joey , I want to be able to look Bessie in the eye, and tell her the truth, that I love her sister with all my heart, and that want to spend the rest of my life with her, I want to be the first and only man you ever have as lover."

" It will be beautiful and wonderful as long it's between you and me, I know what you want Doug, and I would love to be able to walk down the street holding your hand, but that's not going to happen any time soon, and I don't see why we have stall our relationship till we catch up to the law, four months makes me eighteen, but I think we both know I've been an adult for a long time now." She hears him take the deep breathe, and she cradles his face in her hands." Forget Bessie, forget what I want, what does Doug want?"

"You, all I want is you."

"You can have me."

Doug gave up, he couldn't fight her, he didn't want to. He bent down grabbed her behind her knees and lifted her up; kissing his way around her neck he carried her to the bedroom, and slowly lowered on to the bed." You're all I'll ever want."

She quickly captures his face in her hands to place kiss on his lips, before she let her hands fall toward his shirt, she wanted to rip it off him, but she knew Doug, he would flip. "Trust me, I know that feeling."

Doug just grunted to busy he had already tossed her blouse, when he began yanking the strap of her bra down with his teeth , he used his hand to unclasp the front of the garment and he let his mouth trail snow her stomach and Joey finished removing the bra.

He unzipped her skirt while she tackled his pants till they were nothing between them but those last pieces of cotton." Tell me stop and I will." Doug said as he return to eye level, looking deeply into her brown eyes.

Joey answered his question by gripping his boxers on the sides and yanking them down." You stop and I'll kill you."

"Okay." He hooks the side of her panties with his finger, and began sliding them down, Joey lifting her hips to help. When the final barrier gone he fell back on his side and just gazed at her lovingly "Would you believe me if I said that you are the most perfect woman I have ever seen."

"Show me."

"Again with the demands Josephine."
