Hello again!
As you will soon read, our couple's little secret is growing more and more risky as our couple grows more and more lustful for each other...
I am moving in two days so it might be a bit before my next chapter, the final chapter, but I will do my best to try and upload as soon as I can!
Tell me, what do you think?
Chapter 6
"It's called Undermine. I wrote the first verse, she wrote the rest of it. You listen to that and tell me that girl doesn't have it in her to be a great songwriter!"
Rayna sat, a look of surprise planted on her face. Deacon stormed out of the room and Rayna sat back wondering what the hell had just happened. Had he really just defended Juliette Barnes to her?
Deacon burst through the doors and paused, standing outside. He took a couple of deep breaths. He took out his phone and typed, Come over after you've listened to it. He sent it to Rayna, got into his truck and drove home.
Rayna listened to it when she got home. But instead of responding to Deacon, who she was still frustrated at for yelling at her, she went to Juliette's.
Hours later, they had written a new song. "This about Deacon for you?" Juliette had asked candidly.
"Not necessarily." Rayna responded slyly. Was this about Deacon? Maybe. She felt like most of the songs she wrote had a little bit of Deacon in them.
They showed up to rehearsal the next day together. Rayna still didn't speak to Deacon, she was punishing him a little bit. Deacon went to her after rehearsal, "Nice song." She gave him a smile but no response. "Am I still coming over?" He asked. Teddy had debate prep that night, he would be meeting them at the show. Rayna had previously agreed, after much begging and some inappropriate convincing, to let Deacon come over to practice for the show, knowing that wasn't really the reason he was coming over.
"Wouldn't you rather go and spend time with Juliette?" Rayna answered sarcastically.
Deacon sighed deeply in frustration and grabbed her arm.
Rayna looked down at his hand grabbing her, "Deacon…what are you doing?" She asked and he led her out of the room and down the hallway. He reached for the nearest closet and pulled them both inside.
Rayna walked to the wall and turned around, crossing her arms, and bracing herself for another Deacon lecture.
"Did you listen to the song?" Deacon stood with his hands half in his pockets. Rayna didn't say anything. Deacon raised an eyebrow and cocked his head as if to say, I'm waiting.
Rayna rolled her eyes slightly and almost unnoticeably. "Yes, I listened to it."
Deacon waited.
Rayna uncrossed her arms unwillingly and put them in her back pockets. "It was alright."
Deacon gave her a small smile.
"Rayna, that's all I was asking of you. To give her a chance. She's annoying sometimes and really high maintenance and somewhat of a diva and you know what? She reminds me of you." Rayna's jaw dropped and she pounced to say something in response but Deacon continued, "Are you spiteful and manipulative and rude? No. But you had a dream. At her age, you had a dream to be a real country music star. To sing about what you cared about and have people listen. That's all she wants. I just wanted you to see that she has a soft and insecure side and she just wants to be a real musician, like you."
Rayna raised an eyebrow, "She said that?"
"Do you get my point?" Deacon smiled at her reaction.
"I do, Deacon. But you shouldn't have yelled at me in a room full of people."
Deacon stepped closer to her and tried to reach his hands out to hold her waist but she stepped back. "I know, you're right. I'm sorry…" Rayna still wouldn't step in to him. "You jealous, Ray?"
She looked up at him, rolling her eyes dramatically, "Oh don't flatter yourself. I don't care who you spend your time with." Deacon smirked at her. "You are so jealous."
"No." Rayna said quickly. "It's just…annoying seeing you hanging out with her, writing with her, taking her side."
Deacon locked eyes with her, "You think it's easy for me to see you with Teddy?"
Rayna wasn't prepared to have this conversation again. "Deacon, please. Let's not do this again. You know why I did what I did. Things are so complicated with Teddy right now, you know, I can't just...he's the father to my kids, Deacon."
Deacon's eyes flashed in pain, "Believe me, I know." Rayna instantly felt that familiar pang of guilt. This time, however, it had to do with Deacon and the life they never got to have together. She swallowed.
Deacon continued, "It was supposed to be me, Ray. I was supposed to be the father of your kids. I used to dream of you coming to me and telling me that I was the luckiest bastard in the world because you were carrying my child." Rayna broke eye contact with him and tried her best not to breakdown and tell him everything she should have told him years ago. "If you get to have some other man's children then I get to spend time with other women in a professional capacity without you getting mad at me."
Deacon let out a breath that he had been holding throughout that. Now he looked at her to gage how she was going to respond.
She finally made eye contact with him again. "You're right. I'm sorry, I shouldn't have acted like you were…" She searched her mind for the right word. "I shouldn't have acted like you're…mine or something."
Deacon sighed. She didn't get it. He flashed her his signature grin, the one that always made her melt a little inside. "Oh darling, I am definitely, forever and always, yours." He kissed her.
"We good?" He asked. She took her hands out of her pockets and laid them on his chest. "We're good."
She leaned in and welcomed his incoming lips on hers. He drew her bottom lip out and held it with his teeth. He used his tongue to trace her lip as he held it in place. She inhaled deeply and he released her lip and they leaned back in twice as hard. They kissed passionately for a few moments and Rayna could feel her breath getting rapid. She pulled away saying, "We should stop…before someone walks in."
"Yeah, let's stop." Deacon said as he untied the string at the top of Rayna's blouse.
Rayna chuckled, "Deacon, I was being serious. We shouldn't."
"Okay, fine." Deacon replied as he dipped his head to suckle on the newly exposed skin. Rayna closed her eyes but then forced herself to open them again. "What if someone walks in?" She pushed, already starting to sound a little breathless.

"Let them." Deacon said, not helping. He continued his actions by unbuttoning the rest of her shirt, kissing a line down the valley between her breasts and down her stomach. By the time he reached her pants, Rayna didn't have any more protests left in her. He eased her pants open and slid them down, followed quickly by her underwear. He helped her to step out of them and he set them aside. She let her legs fall apart instinctively. Deacon got down onto his knees and leaned in to her. He lifted her leg so that it would rest on his shoulder so he could have better access. Rayna leaned her head back and closed her eyes, bracing herself. Deacon laid a couple of light kisses on her and Rayna instantly shuddered at the sensation. He took his hands and gently spread her open wide. He leaned his head in to her and began to lick and suck her folds. Rayna tried to remember to focus on just breathing in and out. Without warning, Deacon thrust his tongue into her as far as he could. Once inside, he let his tongue explore. He curled it upwards and brought it out. He immediately pushed it back and repeated the motions several times. Rayna's breath was starting to get more rapid. She inhaled deeply and tried to let it out slowly. He replaced his tongue with two fingers and moved his tongue to her clit. The second he flicked it, Rayna inhaled sharply and shoved her hands onto the wall behind her to steady herself. She moaned deeply. "Oh god, Deacon..." He flicked her nub again and began to pump his fingers in and out of her. He closed his mouth around her sensitive area and sucked on it. Rayna moaned again. She spread her fingers wide on the surface of the wall, trying to brace herself against it. He continued to suck on her and pump his fingers in her. Her breathing was getting faster and faster. He began to curl his fingers upwards as he let them slide in and out of her. That sent Rayna into the beginnings of her climax. She arched her back and thrust her hips into him while tightening the leg that was propped up on his shoulder. Deacon worked his tongue at rapid speed, flicking her, and pumped his fingers faster and faster to build her climax. Rayna opened her mouth, still chanting, "Don't stop, don't stop" over and over. She reached her peak and cried out, her hands tightening closed into fists and her legs shaking, threatening to collapse. Deacon let her ride out her pleasure before gingerly putting her other leg back on the ground. He helped her back into her pants, stood up and held her, burying his face into her hair.
He tilted her face until she was looking at his eyes. "Rayna, I swear there's no sight more beautiful in the world than the one I just witnessed." Rayna blushed slightly but felt her heart fill.

"Hello? Ray, you here?" Deacon walked into her kitchen, calling for her.
"Deacon!" Daphne came bouncing into the room and gave Deacon a big hug.
Deacon smiled at her warmly. "Hey sweet girl. Your mom here?" He asked.
Daphne answered, "Uh huh…she's upstairs." Daphne began to occupy herself with the pizza box Deacon had placed on the counter. Deacon headed up the stairs.
"Ray?" Deacon knocked gently on her partly opened door and it swung open.
He stepped into her room, not seeing her anywhere. Then, he heard her humming. He turned his head to the direction of her bathroom and could hear the shower running. He grinned and made his way to the door. He stood in the doorway for a bit, closing his eyes, and listening to her hum gently. The next moment, the water shut off and the door opened. She reached for her towel and stepped out while simultaneously wrapping herself up. She looked up and jumped when she saw Deacon.
"Deacon! What the hell, you trying to give me a heart attack?" Rayna cried out, holding her hand to her chest. He laughed, "Sorry, I got here early so I could bring you dinner and Daphne told me you were up here."
"Daphne knows you came up here? Did she ask any questions?" Rayna instantly went in to mom mode.
Deacon stepped towards her a little, "She didn't think a single thing about it. She's completely focused on dinner." Rayna sighed in relief.
Deacon looked her up and down, still dripping from the shower. "You're beautiful."
Rayna scoffed at him.
Stepping closer to her again he said, "Get back in there." He stared her down, a look of possessiveness shooting across his eyes. That look always turned Rayna on. She smiled slightly, dropped her towel, and stepped back into the shower, turning the water back on, and leaving the door slightly ajar.
Deacon quickly got undressed and joined her.
He got under the water and quickly wet his hair and body to warm up.
Rayna reached her arms around his neck and brought him in for a kiss. He reached his hands up to her head and stroked her wet hair from her hairline all the way down her back. She shivered as she felt his fingertips tickle her spine. "Cold? Let me help you get warm." He grinned and he spun them around and pressed her against the tile wall of the shower. They wrapped their arms around each other and kissed passionately, letting the water cascade over them. He let his hands wander and his fingers found their way in between her legs. He entered two fingers into her and simultaneously stuck his tongue into her mouth.
Suddenly, Rayna jerked away from his lips, tilting her head.
"What's wro…" Rayna clasped her hand over Deacon's mouth quickly. At that same moment, they heard the bathroom door slam open.
"Hey! Sorry to barge in…I need to change shirts." Teddy shouted over the water, heading into the connecting closet. Rayna and Deacon looked at each other, both of them too in shock to move.
"My idiot assistant spilled my coffee on me this morning. I had so many meetings I couldn't even come home until now. I'm late for debate prep."
While he was talking, Rayna whispered to Deacon in a frantic voice, "Is your truck in the driveway?"
She lifted her hand off of his mouth so he could speak, "No, I parked it around the corner like we talked ab…" She heard Teddy walking closer and she replaced her hand back over Deacon's mouth.
Teddy shouted again, "Is it still okay if I just meet you at the show later?"
Rayna, with Deacon's fingers still inside of her, managed to squeak out, "Yeah, that's fine!"
Teddy was in the bathroom now, looking in the mirror as he finished buttoning his shirt. He grabbed two ties and walked to the shower. Rayna and Deacon could hear his footsteps getting closer. He stopped right in front of the door. "Which tie should I wear?"
Rayna released her hand from Deacon's mouth slowly, telling him with her eyes that if he made a sound, she would kill him. Deacon withdrew his hand from inside of her and she stepped over to the door on shaking legs and opened it just enough to stick her face through it.
"The blue one." She said, trying not to make eye contact with Teddy.
"Thanks, babe." He gave her a peck on the lips and walked back over to the closet to put away the rejected tie. Rayna quickly closed the door. She heard Teddy heading back out the bathroom door. He shouted over his shoulder, "I'll see you later, good luck tonight!" They heard the door close, followed by the very faint sound of the bedroom door closing as Teddy left. Rayna tried to catch her breath, feeling her heart beat wildly in her chest. She couldn't believe that had just happened.
"Do you think he saw my clothes on the floor?" Deacon asked.
Rayna looked nervous. "I…I don't think so. He wouldn't have left without saying something about it."
"Well, that's good then…" Deacon didn't know what to say. Rayna reached around him and turned the water off. "We should get ready for the show." She said as she made her way out of the shower. She wrapped herself in a towel and then handed one to Deacon, who started to dry off. They stayed upstairs until they were both dressed and dried and then headed downstairs, careful not to let the girls see Deacon coming down the stairs.
"Come in!" Rayna shouted over her shoulder. She was at her dressing room mirror, doing a couple of final fluffs of her hair before the show.
Deacon peeked his head into the room, "Hey there."
She turned on her heel and beamed at him, "Hi." He walked into the room and over to her.
She motioned with her hands that they should keep some distance. "Teddy and the girls are gonna be here soon."
"Damn, you are some kind of gorgeous." He smiled at her as he leaned in and grabbed the back of her thighs, just below the hem of her dress. She smiled back at him.
"You're some kind of handsome." She replied and he leaned in to kiss her. She barely touched his lips with hers and then pulled away, pointing at her face and saying, "Lipstick. Sorry, sugar."
They heard a knock at the door and stepped away from each other. Teddy and the girls came in to the room. "My girls!" Rayna exclaimed happily as she stepped towards them while putting even more distance between her and Deacon. Maddie began to gush about how pretty her mom looked while Daphne ran over and hugged Deacon. Teddy, looking uncomfortable, said hello to both of them.
"Well, I'll see you girls out there, I gotta go get tuned up. I just had to talk to your mama about some changes." Deacon added the last sentence to try and give an explanation as to why he was there. They had spent countless times hanging out in dressing rooms together, but now that something was going on between them, Deacon felt like he had to be extra careful.
The girls went over to the big mirror and played with the make-up and hair products there, talking enthusiastically. Teddy and Rayna stood awkwardly. "You look nice." Teddy finally said, though Rayna felt that he was only saying it out of obligation. She gave him a tight-lipped smile, "Thanks…I better get heading to the stage." She turned to her girls, "I'll see ya'll out there!"
"Bye, mom! Good luck!" "Have fun!" The girls told her in response.
After the show, Rayna sat in her dressing room in her black cotton robe and scrubbing her face trying to get her make-up off. Deacon came into the room, closing and locking the door behind him.
Deacon walked over to her and stood behind her, watching her in the mirror. He grabbed her around the waist and held her to his body, "It was so hard not to grab you and rip that dress off of you right there on stage." He growled into her neck as he kissed it. Rayna let out a satisfied chuckle, "Well that would have made for an interesting headline." She laughed again but Deacon was serious now. He lifted her until she was standing facing him. He kissed her hard. She relaxed into his kiss and let her arms wrap around his neck. He leaned down and placed his hands on her butt, preparing to lift her up. She helped by jumping up and wrapping her legs around his waist as he lifted her. He carried her to the nearest flat wall and pressed her up against it. He kissed down her neck and then started to nuzzle his face into her robe.
"Deacon…Teddy is gonna be here any minute with the girls so that we can go home."
Without hesitation, Deacon began to open her robe and said, "Well then, I guess we better hurry this along!" He grinned up at her as he reached a hand into her robe and realized she was not wearing underwear. He touched her most sensitive spot, getting her ready. Weeks earlier, Rayna would have never done this here, it was too much of a risk. But with all the times they had spent together recently, Rayna wanted him more and more every day now that she knew what she was missing. She couldn't get enough of him.
Deacon undid his pants and pulled himself free. Rayna pulled him by the hair up to her mouth and they kissed feverishly. Deacon lined himself up and Rayna let herself fall down onto him. They both groaned in the back of their throats, not letting go of each other's lips. Rayna held tightly to his head while Deacon firmly gripped her hips and held her against the wall. He began to pump in and out of her, both of them now a rushing, hot, mess. They were kissing each other all over and their hands were grasping for each other, trying to get as close as possible while also staying balanced and keeping their hips connected. Deacon quickly picked up his pace, trying to be as fast and satisfying as possible. They both stopped kissing and stared at each other, both gasping intermediately now. Rayna could hear the wall knocking as he pounded her against it, over and over. They were both getting dangerously close to their peaks. She gripped his shoulders tightly, her nails cutting into him. His fingers imprinting themselves on her hip bones as he drove into her repeatedly. She knew they were probably leaving a bruise but she could not think of anything but her approaching climax.
"Rayna? You ready?" Teddy called out as he knocked on the door and tried opening the locked door.
"Fuck!" Rayna whispered while simultaneously pushing Deacon away from her and trying to get her feet back on the ground.
"Rayna?" Teddy called again.
"Coming!" Rayna called out, breathlessly. Deacon buckled his pants and Rayna pulled her robe back around her torso, tying the knot as quickly as she could. She knew doing this here and now with Deacon had been a bad idea but after all that has happened between them recently, she couldn't resist the pleasure she knew he would bring. She gestured for Deacon to go into the closet as she walked to the door, trying to make sure her hair was not messed up. She waited until Deacon was out of sight until she opened the door.
"Hey, sorry, I'm not quite ready yet." Rayna said as she answered the door. Teddy looked at her, out of breath, her chest red.
"Um…that's okay. I can wait. Can I come in and sit down?" Teddy asked after Rayna just stood there, the door only half open.
Rayna, trying to think quickly, couldn't come up with a reason not to let him in. Teddy didn't wait for her to respond and made his way into the room. "The girls are with Bucky, he's letting them play around on the stage. I hope that's okay."
Rayna, glancing at the closet, replied, "Yeah. Yeah, that's fine."
Teddy sat down on the couch and Rayna stood, looking anywhere in the room but at Teddy.
Finally Teddy asked, "Aren't you going to change or do you plan on going home in that?" Teddy smiled at her.
"No! I mean, yes. I mean, yes I'm going to change. I'm going to go to the closet and change…because that's where my clothes are." Rayna said, awkwardly.
Teddy gave her a confused look. "Okay…great."
"Okay." Rayna said, finally walking over to the closet. Hearing the tv turn on, Rayna knew Teddy had obviously made himself comfortable.
She opened the door and walked in, turning on the light and closing the door behind her. The closet was small. She squeezed inside, even less room since there was another person in the closet. She stood face to face with Deacon, him less than a foot away from her. She realized now that she would have to change in front of Deacon in this cramped closet, with her husband right outside the door. Deacon must have realized the same thing because he looked at her and then turned his head so that he was turned as far away from her as possible. However, since it was so cramped, he really could only turn his head towards the wall, his body still facing hers. Rayna undid the tie of her robe and let it fall to the floor, still watching Deacon to see if he would be able to resist looking at her. He could see her remove her robe out of the corner of his eye and he shifted uncomfortably, trying not to look at her. Rayna slid her underwear up one leg and then the other. Since she did not have much room, she lost her balance and fell forward slightly. She caught herself but now her and Deacon were inches from each other and as she stood up straight again, she saw that Deacon had turned his head back to look at her when she had stumbled. They locked eyes, their faces and her practically naked body just inches apart. She could feel the heat radiating from their bodies as they stared at each other. Deacon reached an arm up and gently brushed a hair from her face and tucked it behind her ear. His touch made her shiver. He stretched the arm around her and she waited for him to grab her and pull her towards him. Instead, his arm re-emerged from behind her and he held her jeans in his hand. He grabbed them and squatted down, holding them open for her to step into them. She rested a hand on his shoulder as she placed one foot and then the other into the pants. He grabbed the pants and slowly lifted them up her legs. His fingers grazing her skin all the way up and she almost whimpered at the feeling. He kept his eyes on hers the entire time. When he reached her hips, he gripped the pants tighter and helped her shift into them. Still not breaking eye contact, he clasped the button together and pulled the zipper closed. He broke his eyes away from her and looked down at her hips. He gently touched the reddening spots on her hipbones, the markings from his fingertips minutes before. She closed her eyes to his touch, shivering slightly. He paused, his fingers continuing their tracing onto her hip bones, along her pants line. Her eyes still closed, they both breathed in and out, deeply. She had worn an old, worn down, t-shirt to soundcheck before the show and now he grabbed it and lifted it over her arms and head and down onto her torso, his hands once again brushing against her skin. He grasped her hair and gently pulled it out of the shirt and settled it around her shoulders. He let his fingers run through it and then put his hands back down by his side. They kept their eyes locked for a moment more, both of them having so much to say but didn't know how to say it. This was torture. Both of them stared at one another, feeling the heat between them continuing to rise as it always did. Rayna could see the emotion in Deacon's eyes. She thought back to how Deacon opened up to her about how painful it was for him to see her with Teddy. She knew it must be torture to stand there and help her dress so that she could go out and be the picture perfect wife for some other man. Deacon looked at her, seeing in her eyes that she was trying to apologize for putting him in this position. He just wanted to hold her, smell her hair, and let her know that everything was going to be okay. Rayna stood, dressed now but unable to go back out yet. Her chest went up and down as she breathed heavily and kept her eyes locked on Deacon. All she wanted was to be wrapped up in his arms again, she needed him to embrace her, to make her feel safe. They both stood, looking at each other, knowing what they both needed was to touch again. They both moved microscopically closer to each other, their heads leaning in just slightly.
"Rayna you ready?" Teddy called out.
Rayna tore her eyes away from Deacon's and turned back towards the door, wiping her eyes dry. She opened it and stepped out. She turned around and reached for the light switch. She gave Deacon one last glance and then turned off the light and walked into the room.
"Yeah, let's go." Rayna grabbed her purse and left with Teddy to get their girls and go home.
