Chapter 29: The First Night
"The difficulties and struggles of today are but the price we must pay for the accomplishments and victories of tomorrow." – William J. H. Boetcker
"Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through the experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, vision cleared, ambition inspired, and success achieved." – Helen Keller
Sydney had deliberately left that one light one for a number of reasons. First, for practical reasons, she wanted a light on so she could maneuver around his bandages and injuries so she didn't cause him more pain. Secondly, she thought that he might be more comfortable if the were not in complete darkness, after all, she couldn't remember there ever not being at least a small light on in his hospital rooms and even though he was home, he still needed to readjust to another environment. Plus, she couldn't imagine that complete darkness would really bring him any comfort for a while. Lastly, she wanted to see Vaughn the first time they made love at home again. She wanted to see the expressions cross his face, the love, the hunger, the ecstasy, the comfort. She needed to be able to see him in every way this first time, all times.
He looked at her quizzically for a moment, but then seemed to understand. It wasn't like he would complain if he got to see her in all her glory, in soft light, illuminating all her curves, all her beauty. He relished in seeing her every part, every perfection.
She moved over under the covers until she was straddling him. His cock was fully erect after having watched her prance all over the room doing various things stark naked. If that was the affect she had been looking for, it worked perfectly. She wordlessly mounted him, sitting upright while she swallowed his hardness inside of her. Once he was fully sheathed inside her she began to ride him gently. He watched in a haze as her breasts bounced lightly up and down. While he thoroughly enjoyed these riding sessions of hers, he cursed that he couldn't sit up and thrust and all the other things that were floating in and out of his mind. He silently promised himself that the first chance he got, when he was in better health, he would literally fuck her brains out. His thoughts were interrupted when she changed her angle. He moaned instantly as she squeezed him while she worked her new angle. She was enjoying this new angle as well; every time she came back down on him, the base of his cock would rub against her clit and it was driving her wild. Her mouth formed in an "O" as she rode him faster. She allowed him to thrust gently and he thrusted deeply into her warm channel, thirsting for more of what she was offering him. She changed angles again and now she was closer to his body. She leaned forward and grabbed onto the headboard of the bed, offering her breasts to him. He eagerly obliged the offering and began to kiss and suck all around her nipples. The pebble nipples became even harder with his mouth working on them. She was moaning as she continued to ride him. He reached his good hand down to her clit to worry it for her as she rode. She leaned down to give him a long, deep kiss as she felt the stirrings of her orgasm. He sped up his movement on her clit as she started to shake. Her secretions began to leak from her pussy as she moved on him through her orgasm. "Oh, God Vaughn! That feels so good…don't stop…" He continued his ministrations while she came down, but she didn't stop riding him. She sped up again so she could make him come with her. She was just at the peak of her second orgasm when it triggered his own. "Come Vaughn…come in me." He let go at her statement, emptying his balls deep into her waiting tunnel. Her walls milked him, and the amount of liquid surprised her as she felt the force of it hit her walls. She felt instant warmth course through not only her pussy, but a heat also coursed through her entire body. As she gently eased herself off of him, she could feel some of his juice that had mixed with her own spilling out onto her thighs. She reveled in the feeling of his hot seed that was still deep inside her. The warmth continued long after they were finished, and she could still feel the after effects as she lay on him. He was still propped up with the pillows, so she moved him down so they could rest more comfortably. His breathing was beginning to return to normal and he smiled as she looked at him, making sure that he was ok. She kissed him and settled against his chest.
"Vaughn?"
"Yeah?"
She noted that he sounded rather winded and his voice was tired.
"You'd tell me if I was being too rough with you, wouldn't you?"
She waited for an answer that didn't arrive. She moved to look up at him. "Vaughn?"
He looked down at her smiling, "Sydney, I'm ok…"
She looked at him worriedly, "Vaughn! What do you mean you're ok? Did I hurt you?"
"No, Syd…really I'm fine."
"I was too rough wasn't I?"
"No, it was…intense…I liked it Syd. I just get frustrated. I can't do anything…you know…I'd really like to participate at some point. I just can't imagine the next few months going by and not making love to you."
"What do you mean? What do you think we did right now?"
"No, that's not what I mean…ok…how can I say this without totally sounding like an ass…"
"Just spit it out Vaughn."
"Ok, look, I'm a guy ok? I'm a sensitive guy, but I'm still a guy. You know, sometime guys would like to be able to be all macho and…you know…on top…"
She smiled. "Vaughn, you can be a guy while on the bottom…"
"I know, and it's great. I love what you do to me when you're on top. But I can't thrust, I can't sit up, I can't really do anything unless you do something to accommodate. It's just going to get really frustrating. It's not like I can't imagine the next few months with you doing this stuff to me, one would imagine that would be like a total fantasy, but sometimes I'd really like to be the guy in the drivers' seat, you know? Does that make sense?"
"Yeah, sweetie, it does." She sat up and looked at him.
"Does that make me like the biggest asshole in the world?"
"No Vaughn, it doesn't make you an asshole." She thought a moment and then continued, "Look, I know that's what you want, and I do understand, but it's not like you won't ever be able to do that stuff. Really, I mean I don't think it's going to be like months until you're back in the drivers' seat. Listen, we'll go slow, we can try other stuff. We can try you on top, just not right away, ok? Give it some time. Give yourself some time – really Vaughn, you gotta give yourself a break here. So you'll just have to suffer through a few more weeks of Sydney intensity. Ok?"
He smiled at her and pulled her down to him, kissing her deeply. "Yeah, Syd. I can put up with that…"
She kissed him again, moved some of the pillows under his head so he could lay down more, and then lay back down on his chest. She listened to the steady beat of his heart and savored the sound of his breath coming out evenly. She swore to herself that she could cherish that sound for the rest of her life. She looked up again at him and noticed that he was already asleep. It had been a very busy day, and her last thought as she drifted off as well was how nice it was to have Vaughn back in her bed.
