Birthday Wishes

Chapter 1 (NC-17, slightly smutty)

John's Apartment

John woke up to find Natalie looking up at him smiling. He grinned at her and leaned in to give her a soft kiss.

"Happy Birthday John." Natalie whispered

"Thanks" John replied

"So what do you want to do for your birthday?" Natalie asked with a sexy grin.

"I actually have to go to work today, besides you know I don't like to celebrate my birthday" John said totally missing Natalie's grin.

"Well, John" Natalie purred "I was hoping we could have a private celebration at home." giving him a long deep kiss.

John pulled back his breathing ragged "well in that case I am up for a party!"

Natalie looks down at John below the bed covers, " I can see you are up for it," laughing.

"You are such a tease" John laughed tumbling her beneath him.

John bent his head down and kissed the breath out of her. "Mmmmmmmm" "That's the best birthday gift I could have." John said running his hands down her arms to her hands bringing them up over her head pressing his growing arousal into her stomach. Natalie moaned and arched into him deepening the kiss sliding her tongue into his mouth. John let go of her hands, brought them to her breasts, and kneaded them. Taking her nipple between his fingers he pinched gently and Natalie groaned into his mouth.

The phone ringing broke them a part "Damn" John muttered his breathing labored.

"McBain" he growled into his cell

"John its Bo" Bo said grinning as he heard Johns raspy voice. "Did I wake you up?" he asked laughing. He knew he had just interrupted more then just sleep. "Sorry to bother you but I need you to come in early"

"Why? What happened?" John asked

"There has been a break in at Lindsay's gallery and she was knocked out." Bo explained

"Ok I'll be in as soon as I can" John said and hung up.

"What's going on?" Natalie asked getting out of bed and putting her robe on.

"Lindsay Rappaport's gallery was robbed and she was hurt." John said heading to the dresser getting out his clothes.

"Oh my God! Is she ok?" Natalie exclaimed. She turned around and saw John standing naked at the dresser with his back to her. "Oh my" Natalie thought "that man has a nice ass."

"She was just knocked out but I need to go over the crime scene" John said looking back at her catching her looking at his butt. He grinned and said, "want the shower first?"

"You bet!" Natalie replied and headed for the bathroom stripping off her robe.

John laughed his eyes following her into the bathroom.

After they were showered and dressed John said to her "Guess we will have to put those birthday plans on hold till I am finished. I am not sure how long it will take."

"Not to long I hope. I have to go into the station anyway so I might as well join you" Natalie said disappointed that they didn't have more time this morning to be together.

"John" Natalie said seriously. Making a decision about something that had been bothering her for months she said, "When we get home there is something I need to tell you."

"Ok, but we really have to go now" John replied giving her a kiss.

Evangeline's office

Evangeline sat in her office feeling sorry for herself. Natalie had everything Evangeline always wanted, money power, John, a family that loved her more then anything. She hated Natalie for all she had, especially John. She couldn't stop thinking about him. John was the best lover that she had ever had and she was in love with him. It just wasn't fair that Natalie, a slut from the wrong side of town, should get everything that was rightfully hers.

Evangeline seethed as she pictured Natalie and John making love. "I have to do something about this, I have to get him back" she thought. "How can I get him away from that whore? Maybe Layla can help me, she has been spouting off about some secret that she thinks John is keeping from everyone." Just as she was about to pick up the phone to call Layla it rang. Evangeline jumped then answered the phone.

"Hello."

"Hello, is this Evangeline Williamson's office" The voice on the other end said.

"Yes it is. How may I help you?" Said Evangeline

"I have information about Antonio Vega that might help him in his custody case."

"Ok, What is your name and when can we meet?"

"My name is Cristian Vega and I will meet you as soon as you get to the Carbondale minimum-security prison."

"Ok very funny, I have to disappoint you but Cristian Vega is dead and I do not find it funny that you would call here pretending to be him." Evangeline said very firmly.

"I am telling the truth. If you don't believe me ask Natalie."
