Love at Christmas

Chapter 9 Love is All Around Part 2

For the Prime Minister Gene Hunt tonight had to feel incredibly special and heartwarming between himself and Alex as he'd promised her on Boxing Day, that New Year's Eve would be a wonderful night that would never be forgotten about. Although precisely she still worked full time for him as a respected and hardworking member of the backroom staff, this hardly mattered at all as he wanted her to spend the night with him. He absolutely loved her and she certainly loved him mutually, Gene came to the conclusions that's what truly counted for two people happily in love.

Before leaving Downing Street earlier that evening, Phylis swiftly came walking by his office and knocked at the office door promptly she turned the door knob without being invited in. "Just wanted to wish you a Happy New Year Prime Minister, have a good night tonight with Alex, make sure you both keep warm as its bloody freezing out there on the streets this evening" One way or another Phylis always worried too much about him, particularly when he preferred to leave room doors open wide, which obviously left an unnoticed draftiness to pass through into any individual room. Also she genuinely knew on numerous times despite the fact he kept finding himself being held up on the phone during a conversation with either the Prime Minister of France or Italy and how he would blatantly ignore health and safety issues.

"You too Phylis, enjoy the party celebrations, don't be going getting yourself too pissed on the sherry, don't wanna hear in the papers about you drunkly singing Rhianna's Umbrella" Gene wished her a happy new year and happily couldn't resist the odd added joke into the conversation.

"You cheeky swine" Phylis softly mumbled, feeling tempted to laugh. Walking towards the hallway she stopped and then turned to face him. " In matter of fact I should be strictly saying the same thing to you. My advice would be start treating Alex like a queen tonight and for the rest of your life, in spite of everything about what the press has rumoured about you and her, she's bravely jumped hurdles to be with you because she certainly loves you and you ought to do the same . " Phylis's words soon began ringing like church bells within Gene's mind.

"Look I don't possess a brain the side of a garden pea Phylis. I do love Alex more than anything and I'm genuinely considering asking her to hopefully spend the night with me tonight here in Downing Street, as I certainly know I don't want her going out there unaccompanied amongst partygoers and having them trying to chat her up." The PM portrayed his affectionate and thoughtful side.

" Blimey those mighty balls of yours definitely have a wondrous mind of their own don;t they, thankfully they've made you seem more decent and thoughtful for once. Just promise me you'll treat her with respect " Phylis said, she felt rather pleased hearing this, lastly she had been able to give him a piece of her mind and made him consider what he really felt about the true meaning of love and his own unadulterated affection he felt for Alex.

"I promise Phylis, honestly I do, Alex is going to be for quite a memorable night tonight" Gene smiled, feeling confident and relaxed about laid in store.

After a leaked fabricated memo that stated that -the PM's rival leaders were cunningly arranging a planned meeting of their own that same evening to discuss numerous ways of not upsetting him during Prime Minister's Question Time when they returned to Westminister in January- had been posted and emailed to every journalist and photographer, so that they couldn't spoil Gene and Alex's prearranged New Year's Eve romantic date together. Within the main dining room as they both sat comfortably at the dining chairs and warmly and lovingly holding hands across the table. Gene soon felt he was eagerly being taught the most remarkable love a human being could ever feel. His eyes flawlessy admired her chosen evening dress that she was presently wearing, golden, sparkling, dazzling and stunning were the only distinctive words he could describe.

Alex had detected some nervousness and clumsiness whenever he preferably stretched his hand out for a glass of Bollinger or his preferred drink; Whisky. It was commendable to see because simply by looking closely at him, she could see how much eligible effort and work he'd put into their special evening together. "Why do you look distracted, are you sure you're feeling fine this evening Gene? You know I can absolutely recognize a thing or two about positive body language and right at this moment I can honestly tell you're feeling more shyly than me mainly because your shoulders seem tense. May I suggest how about me giving you a helpful shoulder massage later tonight, no arguments because it will make you feel so much better "

"Maybe I am, who knows" Gene huskily murmured, enjoying the fact he preferred teasing her and that she gave the impression of enjoying it herself. "You know Alex I wouldn't mind a shoulder massage later tonight, I think after enduring a hectic Christmas Day with my family I really do need one. Robert suggested I was completely lovestruck, which he wasn't wrong about as I couldn't stop thinking about you for two straight days ,so I tried to ring you from a phonebox situated on a countryside road, unfortunately I managed to accidentally call the home telephone of a small cottage within Baldoyle and ended up speaking to an elderly woman who mistakenly believed I was Daniel O'Donnell."

She couldn't hold herself back from fighting the temptation towards giggling at his misfortune, trying so hard not to make her laughter seem so clear . "Oh you poor thing, did anyone identify you whilst you walked down the countryside lane?, bet there were a large number of stunned women you left feeling flushed in the cheeks "

"Nope Afraid not, as I don't think the residents of the impressive village where Robert and his family go to stay for their Christmas Holidays every year take any blind notice of Politics" Gene self-confidently answered her question. "Of course Robert wanted to make sure I was recognized by numerous village shop owners, everytime I walk alongside him its as if he's purposely attempting to annoy me most times which rightfully proves without a shadow of a doubt he's a massive pain in the british arse"

"Are you well-known within Ireland if you can be truthful in answering?" Alex asked, keen and curious on finding out more.

"No I get the impression they aren't exactly my biggest fans across the Irish Sea, actually I may have offended a few Irish politicians over there when I visited last January. I may have foolishly said some impolite remarks about all they all do is lounge around and piss off decent blokes from Liverpool and Manchester. They told me I acted too stubborn and too robustly. Mentioned they loved meeting Mancunans and Scousers whenever they visited Ireland, so I challenged them to a drinking contest and I won and then may have made things a whole lot worser than they already were. Next thing I knew woke up one morning and found some of the villagers booing me" Gene rightly believed while last visiting Cork and Dublin that he'd hardly left an uneventful influence on the villagers. "They certainly wanted to furiously chase me out of Ireland altogether." He distinctly remembered, now feeling quite ashamed for telling Alex this, he seriously wondered what must she really think of him.

Alex didn't seem too bothered by this, she even suggested two ways of hopefully resolving this. "Gene don't feel too bad, you'll have plenty of opportunities to make amends with the Irish Government now you're Prime Minister. You shouldn't always look back on previous mistakes, you'll have to be forgiven by them some time soon if not there's always my Godfather Evan to suggest, he always good at reasoning with people". She obligingly revealed, knowing this would be undoubtedly end acceptably well for the PM.

Around 45 minutes later; after waiting for their requested foods and keeping themselves vigorously engrossed by each recalling a memorable and an unmemorable Christmas they could buoyantly remember from childhood, whether they ever participated within snowball fights with cousins or school friends on a cold winter's day in December.

"You know I was always nicknamed the Gene Genie Human Snowball, because the schoolkids claimed I could throw particularly launch snowballs and then throw them like The Six Million Dollar Man from the television." He told Alex, instantly laughing at how funny he remembered this to feel like.

"So you're telling me, you could permanently throw anything at twice the speed?, how I wish I'd have seen that" She considered this thought amusingly, conspicuously ignoring Gene's observable quiteness right before her eyes at the dinner table. Every single ounce of confidence he'd progressively chosen to share with her was truly beginning to impress her very much, Alex was appreciatively seeing a charming and captivated side of the newly appointed Prime Minister that hadn't rarely been seen before, well not exactly in front of the British and World Journalists who had written his chances off straightaway after becoming Prime Minister. She honestly believed they were a bunch of uncaring twats who cared more about the latest reality tv shows instead of Politics.

"You may laugh at me for saying this but I'd rather not because if I tried this again I might make myself look more like a right dozy Jammy Dodger " Gene remarked, feeling a little doubtful.

"You won't be a right dozy jammy dodger. I promise you will be feeling more like a Pink Wafer dipped in tea" Alex reasured her and told him not to feel worried.

Shortly afterward at around 8.30pm, the experienced chef Thomas had at long last delievered the PM and Alex's starter and main course meals together on four seperate plates, placing them on a tray and carrying the tray into the dining room lounge.

"Sorry about the delay Prime Minister, regrettably the staff have taken the night left me all alone and left me short-staffed altogether. So that's left me cooking your evening meals for you without any help I'm afraid." Thomas nervously said, feeling annoyed but soon finding himself temptingly rather distracted by the glamorous appearance of Alex.

"That's perfectly understandable Thomas" Gene smirked upon suddenly detecting how sidetracked and unfocused the hardworking experienced chef seemed everytime he glanced over towards Alex. "Oh one more thing Thomas, eyes off her heavenly puppies and keep them peeled more on the food you're serving." He knowingly smiled and then cheerily instructed.

"I wasn't eye flirting sir, I'm being honest and truthful" The chef seemed as though he'd undeniably made matters much worser, remaining blissfully unaware that this was only a part of PM's occasional outspoken one-liners he'd enjoyed cracking every now and then. Thomas soon hurried back to the kitchen, wondering why he'd kept believing he was being told off when actually he wasn't.

Throughout dinner whilst still exchanging affectionate and comical glances between themselves, as they eagerly devoured and consumed their mouthwatering and appealing sherpherds pies. Gene widened both eyes curiously and questionably, spotting that she'd scoffed her Shepherds Pie too quickly. "I didn't know any single posh person had more than an unexpected appetite than me" He said as he looked and scanned over her finished plate, thorougly inspecting it, only to find there were no crumbs and that it had been fully ate.

"Why do you continue to act so cheeky?" Alex shrewdly probed him, hugging herself as she placed her knife and folk down alongside the plate.

"And why do you constantly act too brainy for being posh bird and a more romantic question what truly made you fall madly in love with me?" Gene considerately questioned her, staying desperate to find out what the reasons for why she truly loved him. In his heart he honestly knew it was an meaningful matter of questioning and challenging how deeply her feelings ran for him.

Straightaway Alex confidently answered his unreturned questions "Gene I don't care too much about being too posh for you, it doesn't bother me in the slightest. However once you'll get to know me well, I genuinely believe you'll be admiring very much. To answer your second question I don't know what is that you blissfully do to me, but everytime we're together you simply take my breath away and you make my heart flutter every chance you when speaking to me. I know I've never felt anything like this before but I'm glad you've made me feel this way for the better" she smiled, gazing devotingly towards his entrancing and enchanting eyes.

"So you think of me as an hearthrob?" A smirk emerged across his lips, wondering if she thought he was cuter than the music stars nowadays.

"Oh absolutely, you having so wonderfully attractive about you, simply gazing at those lingering, smouldering eyes of yours that would make not only me persuasively go weak within the knees but saying this I think its fair to say you'd have the same effect on any other woman. I can't myself admiring and adoring the wonderful way you pursue your lips flatteringly whenever you've been asked a question by a member of staff or when you taken Prime Minister Question Time at Westminister, I know makes me sound as if I've been sensibly observing you too much, my Psychology skills obviously coming to the forefront" Alex responded again, feeling expressively foolish on admitting this to the man she deeply loved, she wondered what must he be thinking of me.

"Alex you've been staring at the menu for fifteen minutes, you're worrying me, are you finding whatever dessert you've been admiring closely more tempting to look at then me." Gene amusingly questioned her, feeling rather eager to know, as they both optimistically speculated about what to choose for dessert.

"Let's skip dessert, its too much waiting and its clearly been making you feel unhappy waiting for Thomas to serve each meal this evening" Alex wisely suggested, knowing for a fact she wasn't in a reasonable mood to wait any longer, so she cunningly grabbed his hand, before he had the suitable chance on writing a note for Thomas informing him about them skipping dessert. Gene soon found himself being enticingly hauled lengthways throughout the corridor halls and lastly getting delicately pushed onto the long seated couch within the sitting room lounge situated by the widescreen television. She had practically known from earlier that evening, no matter what, it was pretty evident how their brilliant evening together would seamlessly end, that they were both eager to fall passionately into one another's arms. Alex smirked knowingly as she gazed admiringly into his eyes and could instantly see the flames of intensifying passion within them.

"You know that's the quickest anyone's ever pounced on me before" Gene muttered as he realized he was now laying flat on his back on his black leather couch, still trying to recapture his huskily breathing and presently feasting his delightful eyes straight at her while she done the same except she found herself feeling red faced. She'd felt bad about them skipping afters and wonder about whether they should return back to the dining room. Gene was clearly becoming distracted by a sudden glimpse of her black silk knickers.

"Sorry about me dragging you out of the dining room out of the blue, It was wrong of me I know, I just couldn't help myself, couldn't take my eyes off you all night. You were easily tempting me with your impeccable eyes. " Alex felt guilty and began to feel apologetic towards him, as she remembered, he'd mentioned about looking forward to scoffing a few slices of the delicious Christmas Pudding.

"You really don't have to make an apology Alex seeing as I dreadfully lied earlier because I know I wasn't after dessert anyway, all I ever wanted was you Alex Drake and the certain qualities that have always drawn me to you; its your elegance, your knack to speak out against anyone who's ever doubted you, your impressive goodness and your true beauty." Gene said, while pushing himself up on three pillows and reaching his hands tenderly towards her cheeks.

Gene's sudden heartwarming declaration left her feeling genuinely speechless and lost for words, as they both rested their foreheads against each others. "You gonna contribute on what I've told ya or are you gonna having me feel all those little midget butterflies floating around within my stomach" Gene amused as he hanged onto waiting for her answer.

"Gene that's just a fairytale isn't it though, if there were butterflies within your stomach, they'd be surely annoying you right at this moment probably humming along to Love is in the Air on helium" Alex joyfully answered, before he could reply, she gently placed her finger across his lips before she soon placed her arms tightly around his waist and happily closed the gap between them as they eagerly moved in for a soft kiss on the lips. "Can be honest...I've actually been waiting so much to kiss you tonight since I saw you wearing your matching black jacket and trousers and white shirt. Certainly made know for sure that our night was bound to feel resplendent " she truthfully admitted.

As Gene moved nearer she began to giggle affectionately "What, what's so funny Miss Giggly Knickers, seen something particularly hilarious have ya?" he asked before bursting into tears of laughter, this making laugh together concurrently seconds before they finally succumbed and surrended to each others lips. Gene softly closed his eyes, they irresistibly fluttered every few seconds as he gently placed his left hand around her back, upright towards her neck and pulled her closely towards him. They soon embarked on losing themselves within their heartfelt yet tender kiss. Both even falling back against the couch together, overwhelmed by desire and lust.

Alex slowly pulled away a few minutes later, feeling utterly breathtaking by the alluring touch of his lips and also she experienced the superb throbbing pace of her heart after their kiss . "Bedroom?"

Five minutes later, Gene caringly carried a half naked and giggly Alex into his master bedroom, having frustratingly given up on leading her by hand and lightly placed her down standing in front of him, soon they frantically began ripping at one another's clothes, their lust-filled eyes never leaving each other. Gene humbly couldn't stand holding back the temptation any longer as he considering grasping the opportunity of demonstrating how he truly felt about her because he simply knew if he never did so he would be regretting it soon after.

Gene provactively started to unbutton his shirt as he knelt on the bed"This is because of the wonderful things you do to me Alex, I want to show you, worship and cherish you, how much I love you" He soon unloosened the buttons on his shirt sleeves, unhooked his belt and lastly unfastened his tie from around his neck.

Alex delicately giggled, reaching a hand behind her back and towards the zipper, releasing it away the silk fabric that it had been caught on. "Oh Prime Minister, you are such a horrible teaser, let me unbutton the rest of your shirt while you do unzip my dress" she suggested, tantalizingly fluttering her eyelashes at him as he started to do so. She did the same movement as well, expertly unbuttoning the buttons on shirt that he'd left for her to do.

"Mm you're quite good at this" Gene smirked complimenting her. Alex once again placed finger across his lips just to make he kept still and perfectly quiet.

Minutes later she had finally undressed him and dropped every clothing of his along the bedroom floor. Alex knelt down onto him, placing one leg on either side of his waist, she started to straddle him gently and unhurriedly, in her mind she wantonly desired for them to stay like this for the rest of the night. Her hands caressed everywhere and across his body, his chest, legs, shoulders, back and arse, as she caressed his arse with both hands she coaxed him by squeezing his bum cheeks roughly and hard.

"Ohhh Alexx" Gene comfortably laid back, adequately enjoying this, feeling the sensation of his bum cheeks getting a skillful and expert massage. She smirked thoughtfully and then slowly ran her hands up his bare back and across his broad shoulders. She bought her lips crashing down on his as she continued caressing both shoulders. As they kissed passionately, she waywardly slipped her tongue into his mouth and twirled it around with his own tongue. Gene's long fingertips brushed against her left cheekbone smoothly as he deepened their kiss, pushing her to lay within his arms. However before Gene had the chance of responding he felt her lips soon gently moving away from his mouth and dipping downward, diagonally and from side to side over each reddened cheek. Her lips deftly nibbled and sucked on his neck, leaving marks.

"I may have left some lovemarks on your neck, they might sting in the morning" Alex cleverly pointed out. This never bothered him at all as he looked over at the bedside rectangular shaped mirror to see three or presumably four lovemarks on his lower neck. He glanced back at her and asked curiously, almost forgetting.

"Now where were we?"

"I believe I was thinking of making love to you" Alex's grin widenned as he looked on watchfully, watching her closely as she ran her lips and her hands lower down his body before stopping at his stomach, she slipped one hand between his upper thighs and began to caress his balls slowly, looking up at him she now sat that his eyes were firmly closed, concentrating and focusing on whatever she planned on doing next. She continued by rubbing her thumb his length she then glanced down and took him on mouth, sucking him hard and gently. As she done this, Gene reached his hands towards her breasts and began to pinch at both nipples, when he heard the delighted response etched across her lips, he softly caressed them both. It was remarkable to hear himself and Alex both panting breathlessly as they pleasured one another.

"Ohhhh fuck...fuck...that feels good" Gene gasped strongly, feeling her concentrating on him, pleasuring him. His mind completely floating away as she gave him an unexpected blow job within his bedroom, it suddenly made him feel like a teenager again, this feeling never troubled him at all as it made him feel much better than he'd ever felt beforehand. As she pulled away, she licked his cum with her tongue and kissed back up his body, over his physique chest and against his lips once more. Gene's mind raced when he tasted himself on her lips, she certainly knew how to make an lasting effect remain on a man's mind.

"My turn next" He promptly flipped her over so she was now lying back against the pillows and he soon began to show what exactly he meant minutes earlier. Tracing a finger teasingly over and across her pristine and wonderful curves, his lips soon followed the pursuit of his wandering finger as they both drew lower down her beautiful body and focused on, repaying her earlier action to his thighs and cock. Gene kissed each thigh and looked back at her as she widened her legs for him, so she could grant him more space. He smiled and then delicately kissed inbetween both thighs before dipping his tongue against her already wet entrance and teasing it, which soon began to frustrate her.

"Will you please stop teasing me, I want you to make love to me" She moaned annoyingly, which then caused him to laugh in response.

"Relax I'm just getting warmed up, the main event is just about to start" Gene bat his left eyelid suggestively and then soon sank down on her wet entrance, entering her quickly. Placing his hands now firmly against her waist and pushed himself deeper within her, trying to bury his cock deeply, he gazed lovingly at her as he saw the immense passion and eagerness written and engraved within her lustrous eyes, she reached both hands under his armpits and around to be placed along his broad shoulders, clinging onto them for protection as he began to make glorious love to her within the perfect comfort of his bedroom alongside the closed curtained window.

Gene pushed strongly into her, adjusting himself as he felt her feeling mind-bogglingly desperate for her, wonderfully sensing her excitement for him. She encouraged him to push ardently within her. Alex didn't want this night to end and she certainly didn't want to rush him altogether. As they made love fireworks began to enlighten the midnight sky from outside and flashes against the curtains within the bedroom. She wanted desperately to scream his name out when she came, this was precisely what she wanted to do all night along.

"Shit...Shit...Ohhh Gene" Alex was already giving to the heavenly feel of him,her head spinning, moving from side to side against the fluffy bed pillow as he began to pick up on the confidence to move quickly against her. His hands tightened on her waist as he thrusted quickly and strappingly, the movements they made certainlly made the bed scrape against the wall behind it. She pulled him down on top of her, she wanted to be locked within him, wanted to feel her heart tremble with overwhelming pleasure.

"Fuck...Christ Alex..." Gene panted, feeling his legs beginning to tremble and shake massively as they carried on, he met her eyes again and could see her on the brink of orgasm, especially as she was covered in sweat across her forehead.

"Don't stop, just don't stop. make me come Gene" Alex pleaded breathlessly, her eyes filling up with tears, her heart skipping and thrashing to the immense passion that was overpowering her, as they matched each other's movements perfectly. Their fingertips connected and entangled together to increase their wondrous thrusts and to drive the other simply crazy.

Thirty minutes later after magnificently exploring each other's bodies and pushing the other over the edge of pure bliss, they both came at the same time within the other's embracing and warm arms, Alex's pleasurable scream echoing throughout the walls of the upstairs area of 10 Downing Street and Gene shouting her name out not so loudly before collapsing alongside her on the bed. It took them another 15 minutes or so to recover and to regain their breathing back to normal.

As Alex delightedly laid in Gene's arms, she glanced over at the curtains on her left hand side and wondered if she ought to take a glimpse out of the window so she could eagerly see the illuminated fireworks lightening up the sky throughout London and across the South of the Country. "Gene you don't mind if I have a quick look out do you?" She considerately asked him, he reassuringly smiled and wordlessly agreed. As she climbed from enveloped arms and out of the bed, she hadn't noticed Gene evidently smirking as he watched her walking across the middle of the room naked.

"Careful Alex, you don't know what peeping tom might end up catching you naked, flashing them gorgoeus boobs of yours" Gene flirtatiously informed her, she never took long to respond as she turned around and flicked the v sign at him, he laughed joyfully and watched her as she found a bathrobe towel and wrapped it right around her upper chest.

"Come with me and watch then" Alex challenged him grinning wildly, as she saw that he was instantly taking up her dare straightaway.

"Okay" Gene mumbled, still considering this.

"So that's a yes?"

"Well I'm hardly gonna say no am I" He confirmed what he'd answered a few seconds before. Gene hurriedly sprung out of the bed, like an overexcited kangaroo hopping through the Australian outback, displaying his cock as he approached her.

"Gene put your boxers on, are you trying to arouse me again" Alex giggled as she caught a sexy glimpse of him getting changed into his boxers which he found alongside his boots by the bedside table he then joined her at the window and embracingly hugged her from behind especially after she'd carefully opened the curtains wide enough.

"Perhaps if you stop enticing me with your gorgeous peachy bum" Gene mumbled huskily, as he pressed himself against her, his cock pressed against her bum. They both happily glanced up towards the sky, enthusiastically watching every spectacular firework marvelously flashing before their eyes. Alex felt utterly memorized by how stunning and dazzling the sky looked at night.

"Its beautiful isn't it, all them stars up there, shining tonight for everyone to see and the fireworks making the night fantastically complete" Gene whispered, leaning in to affectionately kiss her shoulder blade.

"Absolutely" Alex answered, joyfully smiling.

They heard the countdown to 2011 commencing close by. "Looks like Big Ben's bringing in a New Year" He suggested knowingly.

10, 9, 8, 7, 6 5, 4, 3...

Gene and Alex counted together, "2, 1..." He happily turned to face him "Happy New Year Alex"

"Happy New Year Prime Minister...I mean Gene" Alex giggled as she notably blushed before moving in for another kiss on the lips. She caressed the back of his neck with her right hand as she drew him down towards him and nibbled on his bottom lip, he hugged her closely and smiled cheerfully.
