Ch 29

Garfield was nervous as he woke up early the next day. He wasn't nervous about the date, but what would happen afterwards. He remembered after the pool, they had gone to their separate rooms. The temptation was too much as they agreed to sleep in their own rooms for the night. Now he was up and dressed to face the day. He knew it was early, but he couldn't get back to sleep. He began to wonder if Raven was as nervous as he was.

Making his way to the kitchen, he saw that Raven had gone out and gotten breakfast but the store bought orange juice on the table and a basket of muffins from that vegan placed he loved in the city. He smiled at her thoughtfulness but before he could indulge, he saw Raven meditating by the window in the living room, dressed in her leotard and cloak.

"How long have you been out here meditating?" asked Gar as he stood beside Raven.

Raven sighed and stepped down from her meditative position to face him. "It's been since 5AM," she blushed. "I—I was nervous about tonight and—

"Me to!"

"How is that a good thing Gar?"

"We're being honest with each other Rae. We're in the same boat, but it kind of makes me feel better that I'm not alone in this feeling."

"I guess you have a point. I do feel a little better."

"So why don't we eat breakfast and see where the day takes us?"

"Sounds good to me," Raven smiled.

"We're off to a good start all ready. I can feel it Rae," he said as he took her hand in his. "Thanks for breakfast by the way."

"Well I needed the distraction," said Raven as she went to make some tea while Gar sat down to eat.

"We should probably go out and get some more groceries after breakfast," said Gar.

"That's a good idea," said Raven as she sat down with her tea across from the green changeling.

"I have to say even with how early you got up, you still look very ravishing today."

Raven blushed and blew up her tea cup, which luckily didn't have any liquid in it. "Uh thanks Gar," she said as she turned away from him, threw the broken tea cup away, and took another out from the cupboard.

"Sorry Rae, I didn't mean to—

"It's fine. I probably need some rest."

Gar smiled. "Say no more, I'll grocery shop and you take care of yourself for our date tonight. I know what you like, so it should be no problem," he said as he felt her take his hand and smile.

Gar got back from the store in one of the cars Victor had left behind in the garage. Making his way into the kitchen, he dropped the groceries at the table and put everything in its rightful place. Wondering how Raven was doing, he made his way to her room. Knocking on her door, he stood back, expecting her to open the door. Waiting for what seemed like forever, he got concerned so he transformed into an ant, slid underneath the door, and changed back.

"Raven?" he said as he looked around the room. It was dark accept for the light coming from the bathroom. Hearing no sound coming from the bathroom, he slowly opened the door to see Raven had fallen asleep, her head resting on the edge of the tub, her body covered by bubble bath. Gently shaking her body, he said her name softly, "Rae."

Two beautiful violet eyes met his, and her mouth smiled at him. "I must have dosed off," she said as she crossed her arms over the edge of the tub. "I should have went to bed."

"You uh need some help getting to your bed?" Gar asked as he blushed.

"You're so cute when you blush Garfield and yes I'm going to need some help. Normally I would use my power but I'm tired." Reaching for the plug under the water, he pulled it, letting the bubbles and water go down the drain. Her beautiful wet naked body met his eyes once again, and his eyes couldn't help but roam over every inch of her skin. "Um Gar?"

"Oh," he blushed once again, "sorry I got distracted," he said as he lifted her from the tub, her hands went around his neck and he held her securely in his arms, making his way into her bedroom. Gently placing her on the bed, he covered her with her blanket. Before he could kiss her forehead and let her sleep, her eyes told him to stay. Resting comfortably beside Raven, he watched her head move to rest on his chest as his arm went instinctively around her blanketed waist. He smiled. "Well I guess I could use some more sleep to."

"Good decision," said Raven as her eyes started to close.

"Sleep well Rae," he said as he kissed her forehead.

Now Gar couldn't sleep for a whole different reason. He was excited about their date tonight and hopeful about later tonight. She deserved to be treated with tender loving care, but he knew there was a side of him that wanted to treat her roughly for his own animalistic needs. He knew he would have to hold back but then he thought of Raven's demon side. He guessed he would have to ask her about that but not right now. He wanted her to be well rested for their date.

Watching her sleep, he couldn't stop smiling. He had loved her for so long. Never did he ever think this was possible for him. Someone who accepted him with all his baggage and appearance. He knew he wasn't the most attractive guy in the world, and that didn't matter to her. She loved him for who he was inside. In the end that was the most important to him. He felt himself come out if his thoughts to feel Raven's hand running through his hair almost as if she was trying to calm his thoughts. He watched as her hand moved from his head to rest on his heart. He smiled. 'I love you to Rae,' he thought and then he felt a presence enter his mind.

'Sleep now Gar, you have nothing to worry about.'

'Rae?'

'You have a hot body to Gar, now let me rest.'

'Y—yes ma'am,' the thought as his eyes closed.

Dinner had been great for the couple. They enjoyed each other's company as well as the food. When dinner was done, the couple made their way to Raven's favorite bookstore. Gar watched as she skimmed the bookcases and when she found a book that interested her, her eyes would light up, which Gar found enchanting about his girlfriend.

"Are you sure there's not a book here that would interest you Gar?" asked Raven as she watched him carry her books. She smiled as he shook his head. "You do know that I could hold all those books with my power right?"

"Oh," Gar blushed. He laughed. "I kind of forgot," he said as her powers took the books from his hands. "Thanks Rae."

"It's the least I can do. Besides you paid for our wonderful dinner and came here with me. I couldn't ask for a better date," she smiled.

"It's worth it to see you happy Rae."

Gar paid for her books as they made their way to a secluded corner with a comfy chair and side table. Placing the books down with her powers, she sat down on the chair and took the first book from her stack of books. Before she could start, she heard a meow and smiled as Gar rubbed against her legs as a cat. Picking him up, she had an idea of where to place him. Since she was wearing a hood on her jacket, she rested Gar round her neck and brought of the hood to her jacket. She heard him pur against her skin as he nuzzled her neck.

"Glad you're enjoying yourself," said Raven as she smiled. "I'm having a really good time Gar," she said softly as she felt his tongue on her neck before she started one of her books. Putting down another book, she sat back in her chair. She didn't want to strain her eyes and knew it was time to go. Bringing her hood down, she looked to see Gar having a cap nap. She smiled at the site as she gently touched his fur, waking up the changeling. "I think it's time to go Gar."

Gar stepped away from Raven and onto the floor, transforming into his human form. He smiled. "You ready for the best dessert in town Rae?"

"I think we should skip dessert and go home right away."

"Really?"

"I've never been more sure Garfield but if you—

"No! I mean whatever you want Rae."

Raven stood close to Gar and looked into his eyes. "I want you Gar," she said, feeling his arms wrap around her waist, bringing her up against his body.

"I want you to Rae," he said, leaning into her ear and whispering, "so badly."

"I know but not here Gar," she said as she felt his excitement pressed against her as her arms tightened against his neck.

"I know," he blushed. "Sorry I really can't help it Rae. I'll try and control myself," he said as he took a deep breath in and then out.

"It's ok Garfield. I know a way to get us home faster." Suddenly the couple, with Raven's books and magic, disappeared right in front of everyone in the bookstore into the night.

"Ugh!" said Gar as he landed right on Raven's bed with Raven on top of him.

"Uh," Raven blushed, "sorry about the landing."

Gar smirked as he noticed she was straddling his waist. "But are you really Rae?"

"No," she said as she leaned in and kissed him passionately on the lips before she used her powers to remove their clothes and bring the blanket over their naked bodies.

Resting on top of Gar's body, she felt his arms around her waist and she was pretty sure he could hear her heart racing against his warm body. She could feel his steady heart beat as well as his bottom half pressed against hers. When she moved slightly, they both gasped at the sensation.

"Raven, are you sure?" he asked, feeling and hearing her rapid heartbeat as he rubbed her back in comfort.

Sitting up on his chest to face him, she sighed. "I'm sure. It's just that this is so unfamiliar to me."

"Me to," he said as his hand moved further down her back, caressing her soft skin. "If you're ok with it, I would like to take the lead on this. I know you're a very strong and capable woman, but I'd like to take care of you," he said and then watched as Raven used her powers to switch their body positions.

"Thank you Gar."

"Anything to make you feel comfortable," he said as she laughed. "Hey, what was that for?" he pouted.

"Shockingly I find that funny since the time we've spent together involved you making me feel as uncomfortable as possible."

"I was just trying to get you out of your shell Rae, sometimes it can be uncomfortable, but I did it because you deserve to be happy."

Her hand reached out to his head, crushing her lips to his. When she let go, she looked at him. "I am happy, the happiest I've ever been because of you never giving up on me."

"And I never ever will Rae. I love you so much," he said as his lips crushed hers, returning the kiss she gave him.

Resting comfortably on her back, Raven felt him lean into her as his lips started their journey down her neck, leaving a few bite marks along the way. The sounds she was making surprised her, but she didn't hide them as she felt his strong hands carefully caress and squeeze her breasts before his mouth sucked on one of her beast while the other hand took care of her other breast. She tried to watch as Gar switched his mouth to the other breast, but she could barely keep her eyes open. It felt so good as she could only concentrate on the sensations of his lips on her skin.

When his mouth moved away from her breast, his lips continued their journey down her stomach and stopped just before her vagina. He could smell her arousal consuming him, but he was hesitant as he looked towards Raven who was catching her breath. He watched the rise and fall of her chest and was mesmerized by her beauty.

"Ga—Gar?" she breathed. "Wh—why did you stop?"

"You need to catch your breath first Rae," he said and suddenly he felt her legs wrap carefully around his head.

"Pl—please Gar, I—I need you."

Gar didn't hesitate as his mouth entered her, her smell taking over him as he ate out of her like she was his last meal. The sounds coming from her mouth spurred him on and before he knew it, she came inside of his mouth. After he swallowed, he lied his head on her stomach with his body resting between her legs. He smiled, hearing her heart racing for a whole different reason before calming down into a steady beat. He purred as he felt her fingers running through his hair.

"I've never felt anything like that before," said Raven.

Gar smiled. "I've never heard those kinds of sounds coming out of your mouth before."

Raven blushed. "I was pretty surprised myself. You have a really talented mouth."

"Well you smell so good, so intoxicating, I really couldn't help myself," he said as he caressed her hip.

"Garfield," she said softly.

That got his attention as he moved his body from resting on her to on top of her once again. He kissed her softly before he spread her legs and looked at her. "This is going to hurt, or so I'm told. I'll take it nice and easy, just let me know if I'm hurting you and I'll stop."

"Ok," she said as she concentrated on relaxing as Gar entered her slowly. She was feeling the pain and then she felt him inside her. "G—Ga—Gar, it's all right to move now," she said as she felt him pull out and then move inside of her again at a steady pace. "Uh! OH! Gar FASTER!" she said as he did what she commanded, meeting every thrust as she moaned in pleasure. "I—I'm going to come Garfield," she sighed in contentment as she released and then relaxed her body against her bed. Her body jolted when she felt Gar release inside her before lying beside her.

"Sorry Rae, I should have said—

"It's all right Gar," she smiled, realizing the blanket over their bodies had wound up on the floor some time during sex. She was tired and knew she wouldn't be able to bring the blanket over her with her powers. Anticipating her needs, Gar got up from his comfortable position on the bed and grabbed the blanket, covering their bodies. "Thanks Gar. You know it's amazing how you seem to anticipate what I need."

"Well some of it is instinct," he smiled as he moved her body towards his, his arms around her waist, "and some of it is from living together in the tower for so long. I just picked up on a few things."

"I hope I can be more attentive. I mean with my emotions it's a given, but—

"You take the lead next time Raven. I know you can do it and if it makes you feel better, I feel very satisfied. I know you are to by how beautifully tired you look," he said as she smiled at him. "Let's get some sleep Rae." Feeling her lips on his cheek, he watched her fall to sleep.
