Chapter 8: Cage Room

Emma walked into DEVGRU on a Friday Afternoon to drop off some clothes for her father. He texted her to bring some clothes to their cage room because Bravo would be leaving from their last spin up the next morning. The Ensign at the front gate let her in without an issue because he was used to seeing Master Chief Hayes' daughter come and go out of the doors. She walked down the hall with her pass and nodded to the people walking by her. Everyone knew her so it was not unusual to see her. She used her pass to swipe into Bravo's cage room. She was shocked when she saw Clay Spenser standing near his open cage wearing only a towel.

"Um, hi. What are you doing here? I thought you would be with Bravo?" Emma asked as she moved into the door and closed it. Clay turned around in his cage and looked at her. She could tell that his body was full of tension.

"They took the new guy with them." Clay answered and turned back to what he was doing.

"So, um, dad told me that you were hurt a few months ago. I'm glad to see that you are doing good." Emma said as she looked at his back. Clay paused and turned around to look at her. He saw in her eyes that she was sincere.

"Thanks."

"I wanted to come visit you, but dad said that I should not get in your way while you were rehabbing." Emma told him as she looked around.

"I wish you had. It would have been nice to see a friendly face." Clay said and he noticed that she looked down as if she felt guilty for not visiting him. "I'm sorry, I'm just upset and I'm taking it out on you. I wasn't very good company then and I would have pushed you away."

"May I ask why you're upset?" Emma asked, not wanting to upset him further.

Clay looked at her and sighed. "Jason and Ray decided to draft someone I don't think should have been drafted to Bravo."

Emma nodded, "I guess I can understand that. But you have to think that Uncle Sonny didn't believe you were good enough to be on Bravo in the beginning. Now, look at you, dad is planning to hand Bravo over to you when he retires. Maybe the new guy will grow on you?" Emma said, trying to stay positive.

"Maybe you're right… but when I got drafted Jason and Ray didn't take my word over Sonny's without checking first." Clay said, remembering the almost blow out he and Vic had about a plan and Jason and Ray taking Vic's side.

"I'm sorry. I wish there was something I could do." Emma said, smiling at him. The two of them stared at each other for a few moments before Emma realized that Clay was still standing in front of her in a towel. "You probably want to change so I should be going." Emma said as she made her way towards the exit.

"Emma… do you think we could talk?" Clay asked and Emma froze. She turned and looked at him before nodding and walking over to the table and jumping up on it to sit. Clay moved towards her and said, "while I was recovering, I had this friend who helped me through…"

"Swanny?" Emma asked and Clay looked up at her in shock before remembering that Swanny was on Bravo when Emma was younger and she knew him.

"Yeah, Swanny. He helped me recover and then he…"

"Committed suicide." Emma finished for him when he couldn't bring himself to.

"We got so close that when he died it felt like I had lost my father." Clay whispered and looked down, trying to keep his composure. Emma grabbed his shoulders and pulled him close to her. She wrapped her arms around him and hugged him tightly. He wrapped his arms around his waist and leaned his head against her chest. She pulled back and placed her hands on his cheeks.

"It's okay to feel like that about him. He took care of you while you were injured."

"His death was so unexpected…" Clay started and looked at Emma, "does it ever get any better?" Clay whispered and tears pooled in his eyes.

Emma looked at him with tears in her eyes as well. She knew he was referring to her mother's unexpected death. "You are never going to forget it, but the pain lessens everyday."

Clay nodded and looked at her. Emma moved her head towards his and their lips met in a sweet kiss. Her hands went to his neck and she deepened the kiss. Clay pulled her closer to the edge of the table and she wrapped her legs around his toweled waist. Clay ran his hands up and down her body. He moved his lips to her neck and rushed her skirt up so that he could remove her panties. He hooked his fingers around the flimsy material of the panties and pulled them down her legs and off her body. His mouth moved back to hers while Emma's hands went to his waist and removed the towel, leaving Clay naked in front of her. Clay positioned himself at her entrance and thrust all the way inside her. Emma threw her head back and put her hand over her mouth to keep her shriek concealed. She laid down on the table and he began lightly thrusting in and out of her. He picked her up from the table and packed her into Jason's closed cage door. His hands held the back of her thighs as he thrust hard into her. She closed her eyes as he kissed down her neck and to her shoulder. Emma came but Clay didn't stop his movements. He moved her away from Jason's cage and moved back towards the table, where he climbed onto the table with her and practically pounded into her. Emma grabbed the sides of the table when she reached her second orgasm. Clay thrust deep one last time before releasing inside her. As they came down from their high, they both realized what had just happened. Clay thought about how he just had sex with his bosses daughter, against his bosses cage door. Emma thought about the fact that she just had sex for the first time with one of her dad's men, a very attractive man, but still one of her dad's men. They looked at each other and Clay climbed off of her. He moved her off the table and walked over to his cage to get a pair of boxers, trying to form words.

"Emma, I'm sorry…"

"Clay, please don't apologize." Emma started but Clay stopped her.

"I feel like I took advantage of you."

"But you didn't… I actually enjoyed myself." Emma said, blushing and she couldn't meet his gaze.

"Me too." Clay whispered. "But this shouldn't have happened."

"You're right." Emma agreed.

"I want it to happen again." Clay told her and took her hand in his, pulling her towards him to kiss her. She responded to his kiss immediately and they broke apart only to catch their breaths.

"I want that too."
