Chapter 14

"Yeah… I guess I'm a little early… for me anyway… Is this for me?" She pointed to the bathtub and Darien blushed a bit.

"It is… well… kind of. I was hoping that you could take some time to relax and I could help you with your relaxation process." He laughed, realizing how weird his idea sounded. She laughed with him and gave him a big hug then slowly began undressing. She began stepping into the water, and Darien fixated on her every move.

"Ahh. Perfect." She sighed and closed her eyes, sitting deeper into the water.

Luckily, the bathtub was big enough for both of them to fit in.

"Aren't you going to join me?" She looked up at him and grinned.

"If you want, I can do that."

"I want that… I want you with me."

At that moment, Darien began unbuttoning. His pace was snail-like and he was fumbling frequently. Completely distracted by Serena's naked body, immersed in the hot water he'd set up for her only a short time ago, he couldn't take his eyes off her.

"Quit staring and hurry up! It'll be cold by the time you get in, silly."

"Oh. Right!"

With that, he focussed on getting his shirt off, then his pants in one swift motion. He slid himself into the water behind Serena and positioned himself, legs spread and outstretched alongside Serena's. She leaned onto his chest and took in a deep breath, sighing.

"Good day with the girls?"

"Erm. Yeah. It was good."

"I'm not even going to ask what you talked about." Darien laughed and Serena blushed, smiling and chuckling too.

As Serena moved forward a bit, Darien started massaging her shoulders and kissing her neck. His motions were sending shivers down her spine, forcing her to close her eyes. He kissed up to her earlobes and nibbled slowly.

"Mmm. Darien." Serena talked quietly and turned to face Darien, moving his hands to her breasts and directing his motion around her nipples.

"So eager… Just be patient." Darien slowed his wandering hands and moved to her collar bone, kissing inch by inch from her shoulder to her neck and then moving down, kissing between her breasts and to her stomach. His hands accompanied the kissing and he caressed her sides, around to her back and massaged the base of her spine. All the while, Serena holding his hair between her fingers, eyes closed and making low cooing sounds.

"Feeling relaxed yet?" Darien lowered his seductively, smiling a little.

"Definitely. Though I'm feeling like there's more you could do to relax me…"

"Yeah? What have you got in mind?"

"Maybe some more caresses, soft kisses, you know…"

Darien stood, stepped out of the bathtub, and wandered to the bedroom. He had placed rose petals across the bed earlier in the day and was checking to see they were still perfectly scattered. Slowly Serena made her entrance into the room, revelling in the relaxing atmosphere and came up behind Darien, rubbing his shoulders and resting her head on him. He inched away and turned on the stereo, beginning to dance before turning to face Serena and take her into his arms.

"You look so goofy. What are you doing?" Serena laughed at his antics but he just smiled and continued dancing, signalling her to twirl.

After one more twirl and a dip, Darien scooped her up and placed her on the bed. He snuggled up beside her, holding her gently in his arms as she reached up to kiss him.

"Are you ever going to run out of these crazy romantic ideas?" She asked jokingly.

"… I hope not. I'm setting the bar very high for myself and I can't disappoint you now."

"You could never disappoint me." She smiled to him reassuringly and he kissed her forehead.

With that, Serena grabbed Darien's hair and pressed her lips into his, nibbling at his lower lip. He responded, holding the small of her back and pulling her body close to his. She let out a soft moan and Darien kissed her more fervently, desperate to feel every part of her. As they parted to take a breath, Serena quickly positioned herself on top of Darien, kissing his chest and shoulders. Darien's eyes widened when Serena sat back up, straddling him.

"Whoa."

Serena blushed at his response and Darien positioned himself at her entrance, letting out a soft moan as he slid into her wetness.

"Ooh. You feel sooo good." Serena lowly whined and began moving her hips with his, grinding in circular motions. Darien held her hips and pushed deeper, causing her to hunch forward with pleasure. She kissed and nibbled at his neck, her hips continuing to echo the movements of his thrusting.

"Serena, I don't think I can hold back much longer."

"Mmm. Me neither….." Her breath became staggered by her heavy breathing. "Don't… Stop…. Oh my God." And with that, Serena released, her body sent into spasms as she came down from her high. Darien felt her walls tighten around his length and was sent to his own high. Serena had already collapsed on top of him and he held her tightly, rubbing her back soothingly. Their breathing began to slow as they clutched each other tightly. Serena moved from on top of Darien and laid beside him, brushing her hand over his cheek and smiling. They kissed again but Serena's stomach began growling.

"Oops. Sorry. I guess it's dinner time? Heh." She laughed slightly, embarrassed.

"Haha. I guess so. You want to cook something together?" He smiled to her but her eyes widened slightly.

"You know how bad my cooking is, right? Do you have a death wish?" She gave him a look of concern and serious doubt.

"Yes. But I'll be there to supervise and help as often as necessary." He smiled reassuringly and with that, she reluctantly nodded.
