A/N: So, the tone of this part doesn't really match that of the first. I planned for this to be more serious but it didn't quite turn out that way. Oh well. I guess sex just strikes my funny bone or something.
This is quite graphic. And it goes on and on (and on). Sorry if it's a bit much, it's just that I plan on telling a love story between Larry and Terri and, well, sex is a huge part of that love story. This chapter is rated R and I have changed the rating of this story to M.
"I'll meet you in the bedroom!" Terri poked her head into the bathroom as Larry was brushing his teeth. Larry made eye contact with her reflection in the mirror and nodded as it was rather difficult to say anything with a toothbrush hanging out of his mouth.
Terri disappeared and Larry smiled to himself before he rinsed his mouth out under the faucet. He had grown so fond of how domestic and comfortable things had become between them. It had only been three months now, four if you counted the little encounter they had way back at the start of the year, and yet they were doing all sorts of mushy, coupley things together. One of Larry's favorite non sexual things that they did for each other was when they'd visit each other at work when they could, usually in order to bring lunch if someone had forgotten to eat breakfast that morning or didn't have time to eat. Truthfully, Larry loved having someone by his side, somebody to come home to and to hold his hand, someone in his bed every night rather than just short term affair. He had a feeling of comfort and security with Terri that he hadn't felt with another person in a very long time. He'd forgotten how stabilizing and how good it felt.
Wiping his face off with a towel, he headed off into the bedroom. All was quiet and dark. Larry could just barely make out the shape of Terri's body on the far side of his bed. Smirking to himself, he joined her under the covers.
"Mmmm..." Larry hugged her from behind, pulling her close as he got a whiff of her shampoo. "Strawberries."
Terri laughed as the back of her head tingled. She was going to try to play hard to get, but Larry was making it very difficult. Since when did she become so ticklish?
"That reminds me, I've got to get more of it the next time we go to the store." Terri teased, faking irritation. "Someone has been using my shampoo other than just me."
"I've only used it a couple of times!" Larry defended himself. "I couldn't help it...it smelled so good! And you're one to talk...I swear I've smelt my cologne on you more than once."
"Okay, okay..." Terri bit back a grin as she turned over in bed to face Larry. "We'll get some more of your cologne while we're there, too. But if you ever start using my perfume, then we'll have a problem."
"Deal." Larry grinned. "It's not my type, anyway. Too girly."
The two lovers spent a few moments lazily kissing each other and caressed one another's bodies. As the passion escalated, articles of clothing were lost in the heat of the moment...including Larry's robe and Terri's nightgown.
"Terri?" Larry muttered against her neck as he peppered it with kisses.
"Yes?" Terri breathed.
Larry looked at her and fixed her with a mischievous grin.
"I want you to try to keep it down tonight, okay? I don't want our neighbors complaining about our noise level." Larry playfully snickered at her, which caused Terri's jaw to drop in mock annoyance.
"Okay, but only if you let loose and make a bit more noise. I'd like to know that you're actually enjoying yourself." Terri shot back sarcastically. "You're so quiet and everything."
Terri and Larry laughed at each other's advice. It was a continuation of a playful observation they had been engaged in earlier at breakfast. They noted how differently they reacted to sex...Larry was much more vocal and enthusiastic whereas Terri was more quiet and restrained. It had led to the two of them making joking impressions of each other's sex noises. Larry's imitation of Terri consisted of him holding his breath and going dead silent. Terri got him back with her impression of him...she tossed her head back and screamed. It had made them both laugh hysterically, in particular, it had made Larry laugh so hard that he nearly choked on his cereal. He was glad that they could poke light and playful fun at one another without anyone getting offended.
"I'll do my best, Princess." Larry winked at her.
Larry got on top of her and showered her with kisses. He started with her forehead, made his way down to her lips and then started kissing her neck once again. Terri smiled to herself as he did so.
"Mmmm..." Larry hummed his appreciation as his lips grazed the soft, clear and faintly soap scented skin of his lover. "So fresh and so clean."
Terri was going to make a joke about how she had used his soap when Larry traveled down further, licking and sucking at both of her nipples until they were teased into two, delicate peaks. Unable to form words, she simply moaned softly. Larry kissed his way down her body further still, making his way down her flat stomach and dipping his tongue into her belly button. This pulled a different reaction out of Terri...laughter. It felt equally pleasurable and ticklish.
"That tickles." Terri managed, giggling softly.
Larry smiled against her skin before continuing to move south. He licked and kissed his way on down below her belly button and Terri's heart began to race.
Uh oh...
Terri's body reacted before her mind could catch up. She nudged Larry away from herself with her foot. She'd pushed him away a little harder than she meant to and had nearly kicked Larry off of the bed. She sat up quickly and her legs snapped shut.
"Hey!" Larry pouted.
They made eye contact for a second before cracking up once again at Terri's reaction to everything. Larry leaned his head on Terri's knees as he laughed and Terri covered her blazing face with her hands as she lost it. Terri loved how, no matter what happened, the two of them were always laughing together. Larry was so laid back and had a wonderful sense of humor and Terri herself also loved to laugh.
"That does it!" Larry joked, referring to how tightly her legs were now closed together. "Get me the crowbar!"
"I'm sorry!" Terri shook her head, looking to the ceiling as she tried to ward off her embarrassment. Tears of laughter stung her eyes.
After the two of them had settled down somewhat, Larry then leaned his chin on her knees so he could look her in the eye. He gently rubbed his hands up and down her legs. At this point, it was to be expected. Terri always acted this way whenever his face would get a little too close for comfort, although she'd never outright kicked him off of her before.
"Terri?" He asked her with a soft smile on his face.
"Yes?" Terri had her mouth covered, still chortling at her own awkwardness.
"How come you stop me everytime I try to go down on you?" Larry asked her. He was still smiling and his eyes twinkled with amusement. There was a gentleness about him here...he was not hurt, irritated or accusatory...just trying to understand.
"Oh, well..." Terri sighed. "It's just that...nobody has ever...you know..."
"You mean you've never had anyone do that to you before?!" Larry asked her incredulously. He couldn't believe it...it was one of his favorite things to do to a woman.
Terri shook her head. She was speechless. When it came to her job, she could talk about sex, pregnancy, STD's and anything else of that nature in a very matter of fact way...but when it came to the bedroom, it was a different story.
"Why not?" Larry tilted his head, very curious.
"Well..." Terri began carefully. "You remember when I told you about David?"
"Yes..." Larry rolled his eyes, the smile on his face faltering. He still planned on killing that bastard.
"After we were together for about a year, I asked him one day why he never did that to me or even tried to. I was pretty curious about it, you know? I heard from my girlfriends that it was an amazing experience." Terri told him.
"Uh-huh?" Larry urged her on.
"He told me the idea grossed him out, so he never did it. So I just let the subject matter go and I never brought it up with anyone ever again." Terri shrugged, trying to mask her hurt with a facade of casualness.
"He said you were gross down there?!" Larry gasped, outraged.
"No, no...just that the idea of it was gross." Terri clarified. "I mean, it is pretty disgusting if you think about it, right? Very unhygienic. It was selfish of me to even ask him for it."
Terri was trying to convince herself just as much as she was trying to convince Larry. He just stared back at her in shock and then shook his head in disbelief.
"So, let me get this straight..." Larry asked her. "He never went down on you because it 'grossed him out', but I'll bet he always expected you to service him, am I right?"
Terri didn't make eye contact but it told Larry all he needed to know.
"Oh, sweetheart..." Larry sighed sadly. "That scumbag really messed with your head, didn't he?"
Terri kept her gaze lowered and could not bring herself to look Larry in the eye.
"You are not, nor could you ever be gross. Please don't let anyone tell you anything differently. I can't believe somebody made you feel that way about yourself." Larry went on a mini rant and Terri managed a small smile. She was glad he was so sex positive...at least someone in their relationship was free from hang-ups.
"Look, I won't do it if you don't want me to..." Larry continued, before finishing up on a teasing note. "But I really want to, so can I?"
Terri snickered at his playfully flirtatious demeanor. She couldn't believe he was that eager to go down on her. She wondered how he'd react if she had told him that she'd had many sex dreams about him doing that to her. He'd probably explode in a cloud of cum.
"It can be a late birthday gift from you to me." Larry flashed her a dimpled, teasing grin. He placed a kiss to each of her knees. "Two weeks late, but better late than never."
"Don't most guys beg for blowjobs for their birthdays?" Terri nervously asked him. She was trying to be funny but could not keep the quiver out of her voice.
"I'm not like other guys." Larry stated simply. "Getting is fun and everything, but I love to give."
"Oh..." Terri trailed off. "Well, um, do I need to do anything special in order to get ready, or...?"
Larry's face lit up. He tossed the covers off of the bed so that they wouldn't be in the way.
"Not really. You just showered and I brushed my teeth so I think we're good." Larry smiled excitedly.
Terri's mouth had gone dry and she was unable to speak. She began to shake, both out of excitement and nerves. She really wanted this, but still felt very self conscious. She was snapped out of her thoughts by Larry speaking to her.
"Terri, tell me if you don't like something that I'm doing and I'll stop. Okay?" He told her.
"Okay..." Terri nodded. She could not stop trembling.
"Just relax..." Larry said softly to her, finding her nervousness kind of adorable. Terri laid back on the bed and he pulled her panties down her long, slender legs. He placed them on the edge of the mattress.
Terri shut her eyes and took a couple of deep breaths as she felt him settling down in between her legs. She nearly jumped out of her skin when she felt Larry kissing, licking and grazing his teeth on the delicate skin on both of her inner thighs. It was almost like a preview for what was to come. She forced herself to part her legs a little more for him and held her breath as if she was getting ready to dive under water...after all, this was uncharted waters for her.
Oh, dear God... Terri thought as she felt his warm breath on the most sensitive part of her. She shivered in anticipation. Then, she felt Larry circling her clit with his tongue before giving it a gentle kiss.
Terri began to shake even harder and it wasn't just from nerves anymore. It was a totally different type of stimulation. She gripped the bedsheets for support and Larry started rubbing his hands up and down her thighs soothingly.
"Do you want me to stop?" He asked her.
Terri shook her head before she realized that he couldn't hear her body language.
"No." Was all Terri could muster. She was so relieved the lights were off. She just knew she was going to end up making the weirdest faces.
Larry grinned before lowering his head once again, turning his attention back to the task at hand. He noted how different actions drew varying reactions from Terri. When he rubbed the tip of his tongue back and forth over her clit, the direct contact was a little too much for her and made her arch off the bed. When he switched to flattening his tongue against her clit and licking her in slow, broad strokes, it made Terri whine loudly. But his favorite was hearing her gasp for breath when he'd bring his tongue a little lower to dip inside of her. He loved how the fragrance and the faint taste of soap was now mixing with the salty taste of sweat on her skin, and with Terri's own natural musky scent and distinct taste. He moaned against her skin, relishing in the taste of her literally melting in his mouth as he continued licking her open.
Terri gasped and squirmed. For a second, her quivering legs closed around Larry's head. She swore under her breath and tried to force herself to keep them open wide enough for him. So far, the reality of having him go down on her was so much better than any fantasy she'd ever had on the subject. Slowly, Terri was unraveling. She was losing her inhibitions and forgetting to feel disgusting, ashamed, embarrassed, gross or any of those other toxic, self hating emotions that that piece of shit David had drilled into her head. She actually felt worthy of experiencing sexual pleasure whole heartedly for once, and it was all because of Larry. She could not believe he was enjoying this activity so much...yet, here he was with his head down in between her legs, moaning, groaning and making other noises of enthusiastic enjoyment as if he was eating a slice of chocolate cake or something.
"Larry..." Terri breathed needily.
Larry looked up at her. He started stroking her clit with his thumb, rubbing it in small, tight circles.
"What do you need?" He asked her softly.
Despite being pushed into a new level of sexual expression that she had never felt before, Terri had started to freeze up again. Shyness began to overcome her as she thought about what she wanted from him. To be frank, she needed him to fuck her but she just could not get the words out. Sexuality was always a hard subject for Terri...she could fake a healthy, down to earth attitude towards it as a part of her professional persona and as a way of not letting any of her friends know that she was kind of a prude. But when things moved to the bedroom and got personal, she froze up a lot and it caused problems in her previous relationships. Her past experiences with sex, mostly thanks to David, were not always positive (and were sometimes downright painful) and left her with a mental block on the whole matter. Larry had an idea of what she wanted however, if her reactions when he pushed his tongue inside of her were anything to go by. He knew that she enjoyed inner stimulation as much as anything, so why not give his girl the best of both worlds? She deserved it. Larry inserted his index and middle fingers inside of her and began pumping them in and out of her at a steady pace. Simultaneously, he sucked gently on her clit as he did so.
It was enough to push her over the edge. Terri clamped both hands over her mouth to muffle her cries as she began to shake almost violently as her orgasm rolled through her. Keeping his fingers inside of her, Larry sat up in order to get a good look at her and he nearly came on the spot at what he saw. In the months that they had been intimate, Terri had never allowed herself to relax enough in order to let go and to truly lose herself to pleasure. Even her orgasms were measured and controlled, true to her personality. And now, here she was...naked and splayed before him, grinding herself down onto his fingers and clenching around them as if they were his cock. She looked so beautiful writhing on his bed like this. The sight was enough to make Larry rock hard without even being touched at all. Seized by an incredible urge, Larry bent down again and replaced his fingers with his mouth.
Terri gasped and held her breath when she felt Larry's tongue once again flicking at her clit. She still hadn't come down from her last orgasm and could feel her overly sensitive body building back up to a peak very quickly.
"Larry, I'm going to..." Terri tried to warn him. She was about to burst.
Larry did not recoil at her warning in the slightest. In fact, he pushed his tongue further inside of her. At his action, Terri shivered and then cried out. Her legs closed in around his head and her hips began bucking against his face as she climaxed once again. Larry, for his part, didn't seem to mind the temporary suffocation. He simply gripped onto her legs with both hands for support as he lapped up everything she had to offer, wanting to taste every drop of her. He was moaning against her flesh, sounding as if he was the one being pleasured when he still hadn't been touched yet that night.
They lay still for a moment as Terri and Larry both tried to catch their breath. They hadn't moved...Terri was still laying on her back, panting for breath with her chest heaving with effort and Larry was still down on his stomach with his head down in between her legs.
"Thank you for letting me do that to you, Terri. Thank you so much." Larry finally spoke up softly as he kissed each of her inner thighs.
Terri's mind spun. She couldn't believe that he was thanking her for that amazing experience. She wanted to say something witty, but she could not form words at the moment. What Larry said next made her heart stop for a few seconds.
"I love you." He said quietly and simply, his voice slightly raspy.
Terri couldn't believe her ears. On one hand, it should not have been such a shock to her because the incredibly extroverted and outgoing used car salesman said "I love you" to everyone...he said it to all of his previous dates before her, he said it to Janet, Jack and even to Mr Furley. He drunkenly yelled it out to everyone in a crowded Regal Beagle one night. He even signed all of his letters (which were written with surprisingly pretty penmanship) "Love, Larry" whether he was writing to family members or to childhood chums...it made no difference to him. It was a casual, friendly thing for him. He was also a very touchy feely, tactile person and loved to hug, shake hands, pat people on the back and things like that.
But something about the way he said it just now seemed so different. It was not done with a cheeky grin or a cheerful smile but was uttered very quietly with tender emotion...the polar opposite of Larry's loud, bold and sunny personality. Terri's heart swelled with her own emotions for him the more she thought about it. Larry finally pushed himself back up into a sitting position and grinned at her. He reached over and snatched a tissue from a nearby tissue box in order to clean his face up a little. Terri's eyes drifted down to the very noticeable bulge in his pajama pants. She licked her lips as she eyed it for a moment.
"Larry, I want you on top of me." Terri told him.
Larry froze, his eyes widening when he heard what she had said. Due to her past issues with that abusive troll David, Terri normally couldn't stand having a man on top of her because it scared her. She was always on top.
"Are you sure?" Larry asked her in surprise.
"Yes, I am." Terri nodded, now unafraid of telling him her needs. "Please. I need to feel you inside of me."
There was this begging, pleading tone that Terri had that Larry had never heard her use during sex before. It sent shivers down his spine. Larry wasted no time in discarding his pajama bottoms and climbing on top of her.
"Your wish is my command." Larry smiled down at her, wagging his eyebrows playfully.
Terri smiled softly at that. That smile, however, was wiped off of her face as soon as she felt him sliding up inside of her. She literally ached for him. The previous orgasms were strange in the fact that they did not feel like traditional orgasms to Terri. Normally, orgasms left her feeling relaxed, calm and satisfied...but the two she had experienced before had not. They were still satisfying in their own way, but they wound her up rather than calming her down. They left her feeling as though every nerve in her skin was on fire and they left her aching and throbbing for him, feeling as if there was a white hot spring in her belly being wound tighter and tighter. The pressure down there was so intense, that she was literally beginning to cramp. She sighed in relief at the feeling of Larry finally inside of her. It eased the pressure somewhat.
Fully sheathed in her wetness, Larry closed his eyes as he relished in the feeling of finally being one with Terri. She felt so good around him, so velvety and warm. It felt better now than ever before and that was a very high bar. Larry went to kiss Terri on the mouth but then caught himself at the last second, remembering what he had just done. He instead kissed her on the forehead, thinking that his pristine and proper nurse was not ready for something like that even though she had come a long way tonight. He began to move, thrusting in and out of her slowly. He feared that going too quickly would make him come embarrassingly fast. Terri wrapped her legs around his lower back...she could not seem to get close enough to him tonight, even though they were as close as two people could possibly be now. Terri's eyes fluttered shut.
As Larry braced himself above Terri with his arms as he and Terri continued to make love, he wondered what made this particular encounter feel so much different...so intense...compared to the others. It was always wonderful being with Terri, but this time was indescribable. His mind whirled in search of an answer. A shocking realization hit him and made him stop in his tracks. He remembered that in the heat of the moment, he'd forgotten to put a condom on. Terri hated and despised the idea of hormonal birth control messing with her body's natural chemistry...she preferred the all natural, side effect free approach of natural family planning and condoms. These methods had always worked like a charm for her in the past, then again, she'd never really cared for sex and had never been quite this sexually active before in her life. Screw ups were more possible now. Larry sighed in frustration. The last thing he wanted to do was to extract himself from Terri. He didn't want to disturb her peace either, because she seemed to be enjoying herself so much...but he had to do the right thing.
"Terri, I forgot to put a condom on. I'll be right back, okay?" Larry informed her.
Terri opened her eyes and looked up at him. He expected her to look shocked or maybe even a bit annoyed, but she just looked...lustful. A tad sex crazed, perhaps? She kept her legs wrapped tightly around his waist.
"Who cares?" Terri groaned, completely love drunk. "Just fuck me."
Larry laughed at her unexpected reaction. He created a monster.
"You're not going to make me be the responsible one, are you?!" He joked. "Because that's a really bad idea..."
"Keep going. Please, baby. I'm so close..." Terri sighed. There was a note of desperation in her voice that gave him goosebumps.
"Yeah, so am I." Larry countered. He was both flattered at Terri's raw need for him and a bit startled at it as well. Still, he knew the consequences that could come from messing around like this. "Come on, sweetheart. Let's not get carried away..."
"Please..." Terri begged again.
Larry sighed. He could feel his resolve melting away into lust. He wanted nothing more than to please her. Perhaps he could get her there without going over the edge himself? He grit his teeth, trying his hardest to hold off as he began moving again. Terri was not making it easy for him to distract himself at all. The way she held him close, ran her hands through his hair, clawed at his back and panted into his ear were all so intoxicating. Terri had lost the leg lock she'd had around his waist and now just had her knees up in the air. It was as if she had been taken over by a very primal part of her brain and no longer cared about how she looked or what she sounded like. Terri's newfound sense of abandon spurred Larry on. He picked up the pace, driving into her harder, faster and deeper and bent his head down to suck hot, wet, open mouthed kisses onto her neck.
"So good..." Terri breathed, clutching at his biceps. "You feel so good..."
Her eyes were shut, and Terri could've sworn she saw sparkles shimmering and twinkling behind her closed eyelids. The tension in her groin was pulling tighter and tighter.
"Shit!" She heard Larry swear. He suddenly stopped thrusting and collapsed down on top of her, burying his face into her neck and shoulder. Every muscle in his body was tight and on edge and he was trembling. Alarmed, Terri's eyes flew open.
"Larry? What's wrong?" She patted his shoulder.
"...Don't move." Came Larry's muffled reply. "Just don't move. Give me a second."
Terri giggled lightly and rubbed her hands up and down his back. She found it endearing how he was trying so hard not to lose it. Then again, of course he was. They had no protection.
"We really need a condom, babe." Larry panted against her skin. "I'm about to explode."
"Yes, you're right." Terri blinked, her sanity finally coming back to her. "You're absolutely right and I'm sorry. Thank you for trying, though."
"It was my pleasure, my dear." Larry chuckled breathlessley. He finally raised his head to look at her. "Okay, that was close...but I think I'm good now. Whew!"
Terri bit her bottom lip, grinning shyly as she looked at him. He had started to push himself up with his arms, ready to push himself off of her. She noted at how safe she felt underneath him. Normally, the thought of a man on top of her gave her feelings of anxiety and made her feel smothered, but the reality of having Larry on top of her was nothing like that. She felt protected and cared for. Her heart thudded in her chest and she cupped his jaw with a shaking hand in order to stop him from moving off of her. She needed to tell him something first.
"Wait, Larry..." Terri smiled up at him in spite of her nerves.
"What is it?" Larry returned her smile, gazing fondly down at her.
Terri shocked him by kissing him fully on the mouth. He groaned into the kiss and returned it with gusto. The unexpected liplock sent sparks of pleasure down into his groin. Terri capped it off by leaning up and whispering into his ear very sweetly.
"I love you, too." She admitted to him.
Larry gasped. He thought she hadn't heard him when he said that earlier. It kind of just slipped out. It was 100 percent true, though. He loved her. He loved her since the start of their relationship...hell, even before that. But to hear her saying it back to him? It was unreal. The emotional shock of it all brought his orgasm back to the forefront, causing it to crash over him in dizzying, overwhelming waves. He slumped down on top of her and shook against her, his hips snapping down into hers repeatedly as he moaned her name desperately and deliciously. This, in turn, triggered Terri. She hadn't meant to set him off like that and felt a little guilty in doing so, but she couldn't spend more than two seconds feeling bad about it because feeling him flooding her was enough to cause that tension that had built up in her body to finally snap. She cried out in sweet release, clinging to him as pleasure seized her entire being.
Afterwards, they lay there for the longest time. Larry had his head down and was still panting heavily into her neck and trying to catch his breath. Terri was also breathing hard, stroking his hair and was staring up at the ceiling as she tried to wrap her mind around what had just happened. Her head was still spinning and the afterglow was still strong and making it very hard to think clearly. Slowly, Larry finally lifted his head to look at Terri and she returned his gaze. Neither one of them said anything at first, but there was a strange mixture of emotions in both of their eyes...equal parts awe and fear. What did they just do? As the dark red haze of lust slowly lifted, a crystal clear and terrifying moment of clarity was settling in around them both.
"Oh crap..." Larry was the first to speak up. This caused them both to laugh nervously.
"Now don't panic..." Terri soothed, although the gravity of what had just taken place was slowly creeping up on her. She tried to disassociate from the situation in order to get a firm grasp on everything. "Let's see...depending on where I am in my monthly cycle, I may need some emergency contraception."
"Is that what they call the morning after pill?" Larry wanted to know.
"Yes, it is." Terri answered him. Her eyes drifted to the side and she started quietly muttering under her breath as she began to calculate where she was in her cycle. Technically, a woman could only get pregnant during a very specific time during each month... roughly about two weeks after the start of her last period, or two weeks before the start of her next one. Her eyes widened as she realized that she was smack dab in the middle of that most fertile time. "And I'm pretty sure that I need it now."
"Now? Like right now?" Larry asked her.
"Yes." Terri nodded. She didn't feel comfortable waiting until tomorrow. A lot could happen in 6-12 hours.
"Okay." Larry gave her a quick, apologetic kiss before pushing himself off of her. He got them both clothing to wear and laid Terri's on the bed while he got dressed hastily. Terri took a moment to clean herself up a little bit before grabbing at the clothes he had given her. Terri noted how much more frequently she went through changes in clothing, how much more she showered and how many condoms she burned through in the past few months...all of which came with being more sexually active. She loved how Larry could make the most mundane things such as a trip to the laundry room, a simple shower or a condom run amusing and even fun...she hoped this new little shopping trip wouldn't scare the humor out of him. Terri shook her head as she mentally scolded herself...she had never had to take the morning after pill before in her life. She had never taken a risk like this before. What on earth was she thinking?
"There is a drug store a few blocks away that's open 24 hours. We'll go to that one. I don't need a prescription." Terri said softly, pulling a shirt over her head. She grasped the jeans that lay on the bed and stood up in order to pull them up over the fresh underwear she'd just put on. She stepped into them as Larry approached her, already fully dressed.
"I'm really sorry about this, Terri." Larry said to her rather sheepishly.
"Larry, it takes two to tango. I wasn't exactly helping matters." Terri smiled reassuringly as she walked up to him and kissed him gently. After a moment, she added rather cheekily. "Besides, it was pretty incredible."
"It was, wasn't it?" Larry laughed. "Incredible, amazing, spectacular..."
"But we really shouldn't take another risk like that again." Terri ruefully pointed out.
"You're right." Larry agreed with her, sobering up slightly. "But if it makes you feel any better, maybe I became infertile when that lightning bolt hit me in the Marines?"
Terri looked up at him, her blue eyes twinkling with amusement. She stared up into his eyes and she ran her hands up his chest. She caught scent of that cologne of his that she liked so much. Even though he was just kidding, a subconscious part of her felt compelled to answer him with what she knew to be a biological truth. It was as if Larry had helped Terri tap into a more animalistic, primal part of her brain...and that part of her mind used her senses to size Larry up. Nothing about him indicated sterility.
"No, you're definitely not infertile." Terri asserted.
The two of them sighed and held each other. Terri had her arms up on Larry's shoulders and around his neck and Larry had his down around her waist. They each squeezed each other in a sort of apology hug. After a moment of silence, Larry's hands drifted down her lower back teasingly.
"So..." Larry smirked at her. "Just how many rounds of unprotected sex can that pill protect you from?"
Terri bit her lip as she thought about the answer. They could have as many encounters as they wanted, as long as it was before the pill was taken and not afterwards. She felt a rush of heat overcome her as she considered it. A part of her wanted to, but another part of her was freaked out that she had already lost control once. She could easily see herself becoming addicted to the skin-on-skin, barrier free form of making love. It really felt so much better and much more intense. Terri knew that she had to be so careful.
"Don't tempt me." Terri matched Larry's sultry smile with a sexy and playful grin of her own. She grabbed his hand and pulled him out of the bedroom. They needed to get this unplanned 2 AM shopping trip over with as fast as possible.
THE END
A/N: I hope no one thinks that I'm pushing them into falling in love too soon. I've noticed something interesting about Larry...for a playboy, he says the word "love" a lot when most playboys would shy away from the "L word"...he always says "I love (fill in the blank)". He almost got married in season 3 (Larry's Bride), talked about getting married again in season 5 (A Crowded Romance) and thought he fell in love with Janet in season 4 (Larry Loves Janet) when all she did was blow him a simple kiss...how chaste is that?! How quaint and sentimental. I think it's adorable.
