AN: So sorry for the late update! Had a bit of a rubbish day and I was wallowing in self pity! But we move on!
Just for clarification, I've had some trolls send me some hateful/hurtful messages over the last 24hrs. I do not claim to own the theme of H getting divorced, I do not think my story is the superior of them all, nor do I think that anyone else's story is rubbish! I am not a hateful person, I cannot stand hate, I believe we all should build each other up! I'm not a nasty person, I'm a decent human being and I just wanted to put that out there. I will always choose kindness.
Anyway, as I said, we move on!
I'm sure this is what you've all been waiting for...
Chapter Eighty One - For Granted
'Henry?' She spoke tenderly, her words barely audible with her softness.
'Hmm?' His gaze locked in her deep blue pools
'Touch me' she pleaded
'Wha-'
'I want you to touch me' she swallowed hard, her heart racing with the fear of rejection, his eyes looking at her like he was ready, but something holding him back.
'Elizabeth, don't take this the wrong way, but are you sure?' He questioned, he moved his Hands to her hips and helped turn her body to face him. 'Because I want nothing more than to feel your body against mine, I want to show you have much I truly love you, but I don't want to do it for the wrong reasons, I don't want to push you into something if you're not comfortable with it' he reasoned, his mind shouting at him for being so considerate.
'The last person who touched me was Datu, I can't live with it, so even if I thought for a second I would live to regret this moment, I wouldn't, because I'm with you' she smiled, her words thick with sincerity as her loving words fell to his ears.
'I love you Henry, and I want you, all of you' she whispered.
'Elizabeth, I love you too' he gushed, moving forward and crashing his lips onto hers, both their bodies caving to the passion within and throwing their fears to the wind. Her body burned at the core. He gently pushed down on her body, lowering her to the couch as he laid on top of her. He pulled back from the kiss and smiled at her lovingly, with a glint in his eyes that said all that needed to be said. He held her gaze for a moment longer, allowing Elizabeth to lean up and reconnect the kiss, knowing she needed to take the lead and be in control in this moment, he needed to know this is what she really wanted.
Elizabeth's lips brushed against Henrys once again, her heart racing, a cocktail of nervousness and excitement growing inside her. A fire ignited between them once again, one she hoped would keep her warm like it used to before. His lips danced from her mouth to her neck and ear, hitting the spots she used to love, her eyes closing and back arching into him as she craved more. Her hands began to run up his body, once they were in reach Henry took them in his, pinning them above her head and holding them in place, a rasped breath escaping his lips as his desire for her took over.
He continued his kisses down her neck and back to her ear, his hunger for her nipping at her senses. 'Oh I've missed you' he whispered, his sultry voice causing her body to shudder in anticipation. He slowly loosened the grip on her arms, and sat back on her a little, watching her every move as he started to slip her housecoat off her shoulders.
'Take it off' she nodded, confirming he was safe to continue. Henry's hands gripped at the material and pulled it down her body, slipping it from under her, Elizabeth lifted slightly to help remove It completely. He looked down at her body, her t-shirt pulled tight where she lay on it, fragments of his mistakes laced all over her. She was significantly smaller than he'd ever known her and it pained him to see. Elizabeth moved her hand and cupped his face, her thumb rubbing against his cheek as she gave him a moment to cast his eyes over her.
'It's ok, I'm ok now. I know I'm safe with you' she whispered, offering reassurance, knowing exactly what he was looking at. Henry nodded softly, his lips forming into a gentle smile as he let his hands roam over her body, his fingers splayed across her skin at the hem of her t-shirt, moving up and slipping under her back, pulling her body closer to his as he dipped his head back down to her lips. He planted hot, wet kisses all over her jawline, invisible marks on her skin but permanent marks in their memories made.
Henry felt himself harden as her body relaxed under his touch, he had dreamed of this moment between them both for a long time, determined not to take a second of loving her for granted again he vowed to go slow and savor every moment. His hands dropped across her body and ran themselves from her back, up her sides and to her breast, cautiously moving slowly to feel them beneath her t-shirt and bra. He moved in gentle loving motions, showing her how they should be handled.
'Hmm' she moaned in pleasure as she felt his hands reacquaint themselves with her body. He slowly began to tease them with his hands, cupping them from underneath before running up over the top and teasing his fingertips at the neck line, touching her exposed skin. He slipped his leg between hers, parting them and pushing his knee into her hot core. He groaned into her skin as he lowered his lips down her neck towards her breasts. His hands ran down her body and to her t-shirt, pulling it up over her head, removing another item of clothing. .
He drank in the pleasurable sights of her black bra, but only for a moment, his need for her to be free for him to touch took over as he slipped his hands to the back of her bra. Elizabeth sat up a little, giggling at his eagerness as she kissed down his neck, nibbling at his ear whilst he unclasped her bra. Once it came undone he pulled it down and discarded it with her other clothes. His eyes walked over her skin, noticing her wedding band sitting on a chain between the valley of her breasts. He flicked his gaze up to hers and shook his head in admiration, after all this time she continued to surprise him.
'What?' She asked
'You, I can't believe I ever let you go' he groaned, dipping down and kissing her, forcing her back onto her back with a slight giggle. He trailed kisses down her body once again, groaning in pleasure at her exposed breasts; his hands were now free to roam. He lowered his body down hers, starting to kiss and suck at her nipples, using his tongue to flick and lick them, attentively going between them both, whilst his hand began to walk down towards her trousers. Elizabeth allowed her hands to run down his front, creating a small gap between their bodies as she began to play with his sweater and t-shirt, untucking it from his trousers and pulling it up, desperate to feel his skin on hers once again.
Henry parted from her body to sit back and pull his clothes over his head, his torso and arms now bare, waiting for her hands to touch. Her core pulled and damped at the sight of him, somehow she found him more attractive than ever before. She ran her finger tips up and down his torso, marvelling at the thought of being close to him once again, she was home. Elizabeth wrapped her arms around his neck, slowly pulling him down towards her and connecting his lips with hers softly.
Her hands slipped from his neck back down his body, squeezing at his skin as she walked down to his waist, slipping lower and firmly taking a hold of his hardened length though his trousers. She began to sensually rub against him, sending her own body into overdrive as pleasurable thoughts flooded back to her. Henry lowered himself down onto her a little more, their skin synced together, both of them fighting the temptation to rush things and rip one another's clothes away and sinfully make the other scream.
Elizabeth began to tug at his trouser waist band, signalling she wanted to pull them down. Henry planted a kiss on her lips and chuckled softly, her impatience growing as was his. He stood up off the couch for a moment and slipped his trousers and boxers off, his erection free. Elizabeth shifted in her seat and sat up, she was level with his hardened member and cupped him in her hands, slowly running her hands up and down as she familiarised herself with his pleasurable spots. Henry's body tensed, the feeling of her touching him sent shivers down his spine, his breath hitched as she began to quicken her pace.
She dipped her head forward and took him in her mouth, slowly lowering her lips around him and sucking hard as she pulled back. Henry groaned aloud and placed his hands on her shoulders, holding her in place as he begged for more. She continued to tease, lick, suck and kiss in a sinful manner, the breathless pants from Henry sending her own desires wild. Henry slipped a hand off her shoulder, running his fingertips back down the valley of her breasts, taking a moment to play with her wedding band before slipping to her nipples, pinching at them erotically for a moment, then allowing his hands to walk further.
He pulled himself from her mouth, his lustful eyes falling over her body as he lowered her down on the couch, his hand lingering at her entrance whilst the other pushing on her shoulder. Once she was laid down he slipped his fingers around the button of her jeans and popped it open, lowering the zip and slipping his fingers around the open material, pulling down, wanting them removed.
Elizabeth lifted her hips as he pulled them down, her underwear removed along with them in one swift motion. He threw them across the room and looked back at her, a daring smile across his face as he drank in the sight of her naked form. She felt him part her thighs, his fingers tracing along her folds, the aroma of her sex drawing him closer until he couldn't hold any longer. He dipped a finger inside her, holding it in place as he allowed his thumb to circle her sweet spot and feel her dampness for him. Sultry pants escaped her lips as she begged for more.
'Henry, More, touch me'
He began to move his finger out, adding another into the mix as he pushed and dipped them both back inside her. A loud moan escaped her as she started to come undone beneath him, finally feeling connected to another, and no longer alone. He continued to move in pleasurable motions, her moans dipping from inaudible as she marvelled in his pleasure, to louder and louder as his pace increased. He continued to push in and out of her, his thumb frantically rubbing at her sweet spot, suddenly needing to watch her come undone beneath him.
Elizabeth reached down, trying to grab his hand and slow his motion, her body twisting in pleasure stopping her from being able to hold him. Henry slowed his actions and pulled his fingers from her.
'Is everything ok?' He asked, a little fearful he had gone too far.
'You' she panted, 'I want to feel you' she smiled, her eyes connecting with his as they pleaded for more. He threw her a wicked grin and groaned in response to her wishes. He took a firm hold of himself, pumping his length a few times before singing himself up ready to penetrate her. She widened her legs a little more for him, hooking her one foot over the back of the couch as her body quivered in anticipation. Henry dipped himself down, slowly pushing himself deep inside her. Elizabeth threw her head back, moaning in pleasure as she felt him slide in. Henry held his position for a little, not moving and allowing their bodies to adjust, aware it had been a long time for Elizabeth since she had been intimate, and he didn't want to hurt her.
He positioned his arms either side of her body, dipping his head down, rubbing his nose against hers, before kissing her lips gently. Elizabeth deepened the kiss, her hands roaming around his neck and through his hair, signalling she was ready. Henry started to roll his hips into her, her velvet juices wrapped around his hardened length, allowing him to slide in and out of her with ease. Henry's desire for her grew with every thrust of the hips, his passion erupting as his hips began to take over, his rhythm increasing in speed. Elizabeth hands gripped at his arms, holding onto him to steady herself as she moved beneath him. He continued to pound into her, harder and harder, her nails dug into the skin of his arms as she felt herself climb.
Henry panted heavily, watching as she closed her eyes in pleasure, her back arching up into him, and her skin flushing pink, he knew that meant she was close. He slipped his hand down between their bodies, his thumb locating her sweet spot, circling it with speed and love, so ready to watch Elizabeth McCord climax once again.
'Henr-' she panted, her words evading her as her hands left his body and gripped at the couch, her moans almost becoming silent as she felt unable to cope with the pressure the surged through her body, her hips bucked up at him involuntarily as the fire they lit burned through her.
'Henry!' She panted heavily, as she allowed herself to let go. His name sent shockwaves of an orgasm pulsing through her veins. Her body tensed and her walls clammed hard around him. The feel of her sent Henry over the edge, he spilled himself inside of her uncontrollably as he allowed himself to dissolve into the pleasure of Elizabeth. He rocked into her to prolong the sensation for them both, but eventually he came to a stop, he lowered himself onto the couch beside her, squashing in the space as she shifted over, rolling on her side and into his arms.
Her fingers instantly danced across his chest, gently caressing him in silence as she caught her breath. Henry dipped his head and kissed her hair softly, resting his cheek on her head for a moment as he allowed his breathing to calm. Elizabeth shifted closer to him, her body shuddering slightly as the cool air kissed her skin. Henry sat up a little and looked around for a throw.
'You ok?' She asked, glancing at him through an open eye.
'Yeah, you're cold, I was looking for a throw' he kept looking behind him and around the room. Elizabeth swung her legs from the couch and slowly stood up, her naked form creating the perfect silhouette. This time she held out her hands for him to take, he placed one in her grasp and pushed off the couch with the other, standing up in front of her.
'Come up to bed with me?' She asked softly, pulling at his hand and leading the way to their sanctuary as he accepted her offer, once again, refusing to take another second spend with Elizabeth for granted.
