"Ed...Edgar...I...can't...can't cum...again!"

Natalia tried to form an intelligible sentence as Edgar held roughly on to her hips and pounded her into the next universe. She was on all fours but could barely manage to keep herself up much longer.

They'd returned home a week ago and had been married for a little over three weeks now and so far the married life was great. Needless to say, so was their sex life. Edgar had been very slow and gentle with Natalia their first few times together, making sure that she went at her own pace and felt completely comfortable with everything they did. As time went on, she slowly but surely started opening up to Edgar, allowing him to take her places she didn't even know existed. The woman Edgar once proclaimed "Virgin Mary" was proving to be anything but.

"Edgar...I can't...can't..."

"Yes you can " Edgar released one hand from Natalia's hip and reached forward to grab her by her shoulder pulling her body up against his own, whispering heavily in her ear "I'm gonna show you exactly what you can do."

Natalia bit down on her lip as she threw herself back into Edgar's thrust, winding her arm around to hold onto the back of his neck. They were both drenched in sweat but neither of them cared, never had anything been so erotic. Edgar moved his hand from her shoulder, down to the very bottom of her stomach, his index finger playing gently with her swollen clit. Natalia gasped in pleasure and Edgar grinned cockily at her response.

"You like that don't you." It was a statement, not a question. Regardless Natalia nodded her head.

Without warning Edgar pulled out of her and Natalia's face immediately went from a look of pleasure to confusion to irritation. Her hair was sticking to her neck and back, her cheeks were flushed and her breathing was labored. Everything about her was turning him on and he knew he wasn't going to last much longer and neither was she. But when Natalia came he not only wanted to feel it but see it written on her face like a story. He couldn't do that with her back towards him.

"Turn around"

Natalia did as she was told, facing Edgar full on, but he didn't touch her, not right away. He just admired her in all her glory. "Damn, she's beautiful."

"Edgar..."

Edgar looked into her eyes "Yes?"

"Fuck me."

He grinned as he pushed Natalia down onto her back and ran his rough hands over her breast, giving her nipples the occasional squeeze that sent her sensations over the edge. He leaned down and kissed her. "Ask me nicely." Edgar was teasing her now and he was well aware of it.

"Please." Natalia half begged, half snapped out of irritation.

Edgar smirked as he positioned himself at her enterance. "I love you."

"I love you too" Natalia said as she smiled at him lovingly " Now fuck me."

"As you wish" Edgar chuckled lightly but as he inserted himself into his wife the smirk on his face was replaced with a look of pleasure, a look only the woman beneath him could produce. He groaned as he moved inside of her, back and forth, like the rocking of the sea. She grabbed onto his shoulders as she opened her legs wider, giving him everything she had to offer. She let out a startled yelp as he took her left leg and threw it over his shoulder pounding into her with ferocity. He was hitting her sweet spot repeatedly and Natalia didn't know how much more she could take.

"Right there...Shit, Edgar...Just like that!"

Edgar grunted something unintelligible as he dropped her leg from his shoulder and pulled her up so that they were staring into eachother's eyes as she rode him. He grabbed firmly onto her ass and pushed her deeper and deeper into him. He was so turned on at the very sight of her, her voluptuous breast bouncing, her body glistening with sweat.

"So fuckin' beautiful." He grunted into her ear before once again laying her down on her back. He spread her legs as far as they could go and resumed action, losing his body, mind, and self control all in the process. Natalia moaned and whimpered beneath him, completely submissive to him and his every move. Edgar could feel her coming to her climax and knew he wasn't far behind. He increased his speed to a new level, eyes never leaving Natalia's, which were now filled with tears. She had a habit of doing that sometimes. Getting emotional. It worried Edgar in the beginning but she'd assured him that it just meant everything felt amazing. Now it almost worried him if he didn't see her get a little emotional over their union.

He leaned forward and kissed her sloppily as they came in unison. Natalia cried out as she arched her back and the tears that had built in her eyes had fallen. Edgar's groan was muffled as he'd had his face buried in her neck.

He lay limply on top of her for only a moment before he moved, not wanting to crush her. As he dropped down beside her, Natalia immediately climbed onto his chest, something she often did, regardless of whether they were having sex or not. "Just wanna be close to you" she always said. Edgar pushed her hair away from her sweaty forehead and ran his hand up and down her back, stroking her gently. They listened to the rain beat heavily against the window, the only sound filling the air. Natalia was the first to break the silence.

"I can't believe I just came for the third time in a row" she said, almost mystified.

"You're welcome." Edgar said with a chuckle and a cocky grin and Natalia rolled her eyes but laughed.

"I don't want to go fishing tomorrow." Edgar said, taking on a suddenly somber tone. Tomorrow they'd be leaving for the docks of Pugent Sound and a few days after that they'd be headed off to Dutch Harbor, Alaska. Edgar found himself growing more and more miserable as the day drew near.

"We could always stay here, locked up in our room, safely hidden from your tyrant of a brother."

Edgar grinned slightly "That doesn't sound like such a bad idea."

Natalia heard something in Edgar's tone that made her look up at him "Edgar, what's wrong?"

He sighed heavily as he ran a hand over his face "I don't want to fish anymore Nat. Period."

"What?" She sat up, pulling the covers around her body as she looked down at the man she loved, wondering what could make him no longer want to do what he was bred to do, what he lived for, what he loved all his life. "What are you talking about? Why not?"

Edgar propped himself up on his elbow and shrugged "I don't love it anymore Nat. Not the way I used to. Not the way I should."

"Where did this come from all the sudden?"

"It's not all the sudden, not exactly. I've been feeling like this for a while. Guess I just didn't really realize it until now, " he reached over to trail his finger softly down her face "Until I realized what mattered to me the most."

He saw the look of confusion on his wife's face and tried to think of the best way to explain how he was feeling. "I'm old Nat. Too old for this shit anyway. I gave my life and soul to this job and it's chewed me up and spit me out. My body has suffered, my mind. I can't do this anymore. Much as I'll always love this job, much as it means to me sentimentally, I don't want to do it anymore. I can't."

"If you felt like this for so long why are you only just saying something? Why didn't you quit long before now?"

Edgar shrugged "Guess I was just waiting for you to return into my life. Needed something to keep me preoccupied while I waited."

An eternity I was lost at sea in search of your love;
Lost in the vast emptiness that was everywhere.

Natalia smiled serenely as she leaned forward and kissed him soundly "You flatter me."

Edgar grinned "I only speak the truth."

Natalia grinned as she lay herself back down, her head laying right above his beating heart, his arm wrapped securely around her waist. The rain had not let up and as the hour grew on the darkness from the outside world seeped in through their windows and encompassed them.

"So what does this mean Edgar, you quit?"

Edgar sighed "Yeah Nat. After this season, I quit."

She nodded her head against his chest "I quit too then."

Edgar pulled away from her and tried to look into her eyes, though he could only see the outlining of her face.

"No. I don't want you to quit because of me."

"Edgar, you're my husband. I'm not going to spend my life at sea if youre not there right by my side, being a pain in my ass" Natalia tried to lighten the mood with some humor but she knew Edgar was immediately feeling guilty.

"Maybe I could stay on a few more years " He suggested "I got a few good seasons left in me."

"Edgar, no. You're going to kill yourself if you don't stop."

"Ever since I knew you, you wanted to work on a crab boat. It was your dream. I don't want you to give it up for me."

"My only dream is to be with you. That's all I've ever wanted. Where ever you go is where ever I'll be."

"Nat..."

"Would you really want me gone 9-10 months out the year doing one of the world's most dangerous jobs without you there to protect and watch over me?"

"Well.."

"Just imagine what could happen to me if you weren't there..."

"I.."

"I mean God forbid I get swept off the deck and drowned and..."

"Okay, okay, I get it. You made your point."

"Good." Natalia smiled in triumph as she laid her head back onto Edgar's chest, listening to her favorite sound in the world. "So what do you want to do after we quit?"

Edgar chuckled at how casual she could be about it. He'd have to see just how well she handled herself once they broke the news to Sigurd. "Well I was thinking I'd take you to Norway. You can meet your new extended family."

"Really?"

"Yeah. Would you wanna go?"

"Of course. I don't know if you know this but I've never been to Norway before."

Edgar smirked "I figured as much."

"Since we're traveling, after we go to Norway I want to take you to Italy. I have a few aunts, uncles and cousins who live out there."

"You speak Italian?"

"A little bit."

"Say something."

"Io vi amo più della vita stessa miei cari Edgar"

"Hmm, that sounded sexy. What did you say?"

Natalia smirked as she placed a gentle kiss on his chest, above his heart. "I said, "I love you more than life itself, my dear Edgar."

Edgar grinned as he pulled his wife closer to his chest "I love you too."

"I know."

"Smart ass."

They lay in silence for a few minutes longer and Edgar could hear Natalia's breathing become shallow and knew she had fallen asleep. As he stared down at the woman who was spread across his chest, he smiled in the darkness. He could never believe how much he'd lucked out. He had found the woman of his dreams years ago though at the time she was nothing more than a mere girl. As fate would have it she had managed to find her way back to the Northwestern, back to him and into his heart. He would not regret leaving the boat and though apart of him still felt guilty that Natalia wanted to quit on his behalf, he was glad she decided to leave too. He'd probably catch a heart attack every time she left the docks and he'd end up in an early grave. But lucky for him he didn't need to worry about that, reassured by the words Natalia had spoken earlier. "Where ever you go is where ever I'll be."

He sighed as he watched his wife sleep, safely in his arms.

"It's been so long since I've had anyone sleeping next to me
It's better than anything just to fall asleep
I kept myself up to watch your thoughts drifting next to me
Sometimes this single and only event is where I want to be
Safe in my room ; An angel sleeps there, breathing through her sleep
."

Edgar smiled and stroked her head lightly as she stirred.

"Stop staring at me you creep." she mumbled groggily

Edgar's mouth nearly dropped open "I thought you were asleep."

"Can't sleep with those damn eyes of yours burning holes in my head."

He laughed "Sorry baby."

"What can I do ?
I'm stuck thinking about you ;

Did you know my sweet, yeah
That I once took the liberty of
Watching you in your sleep."
