The bright morning rays shown through the blinds into Special Agent Jack Hudson's bedroom onto the pair sleeping wrapped in each other's arms, tangled in the sheets. They had agreed to face the opposite way- both were barely hanging onto their edge of the bed.

"How am I ever going to do this?" Sue silently asked herself. She didn't want to toss and turn, but she couldn't make herself comfortable. She turned onto her back, hoping he'd fallen asleep already. He hadn't.

Jack lay there, wrapped under the same blanket as the woman of his dreams. How did he expect to actually fall asleep. "How am I going to do this? I'm never going to fall asleep." Jack thought to himself.

Both had managed to fall asleep the previous night, and at some point, they'd found their way into each other's arms. Jack's right arm was resting around Sue's waist, holding her close to him as they slept. His leg was tucked between hers, snuggling sweetly with his face buried in her golden locks. Both had smiles plastered upon their faces. Sue's smile got bigger as she cuddled up against Jack more than before. Her eyes fluttered open and the realization that the love of her life was holding her, overwhelmed her. She slowly turned to face him, their eyes searching for silent permission to be granted as their lips touched. It was a sweet, pure first acknowledgement of their love. Sue rolled toward Jack, her lips never breaking from his. The kiss increased in passion. Sue pulled herself up to be closer to Jack's lips. She closed her eyes, breathing in his scent. Her lips instinctively opened to allow their tongues to meet once again. She innocently darted her tongue toward him first. She slowly licked his bottom lip, then his top. He smiled as he allowed her access. Jack's tongue joined hers, anxious to investigate the newly discovered territory. They lay tangled with the other, engulfed in the passion the kiss was creating between them.

Jack's hands wandered down Sue's back, venturing lower. His fingers grasped onto the soft flesh of her backside and pulled her closer to him. Sue could feel his need for her growing as they continued to kiss. Jack broke the kiss only long enough to place a trail of kisses down her cheek to her neck. He bathed her neck and shoulder in hot caresses. Sue began to trail her own path of exploration with her hands on Jack's body. She moved one hand to his waist and ventured under his shirt he'd worn to bed. Her cold fingers made him flinch and grimace at the shock of the cold. He didn't pull away. Her thumb began massage his hardened nipples as her finger tips traced random shaped along his bare chest. Jack began to bring his hands northward finding her breasts. He began to show them the same attention she was teasing him with. Sue gasped at the initial feel of his hands on her. Her head swirled in the lustful whirlwind she was caught in. She willed herself to stay focused, she wanted this first experience to be a memory she would dwell on in her golden years. Jack's lips ascended on hers with more yearning than he'd felt in years. He wanted Sue. He needed her more than he had ever intended. He also loved her, and didn't want to hurt her, or push her before she was ready. He could tell she was nervous, cautious. Jack slowed the assault his lips were creating on her body. He slowly kissed her lips again, then to her cheek. He looked at her, lovingly. Their eyes locked. He didn't get the chance to say a word. His eyes spoke for him. She leaned upward to kiss him again. She looked him in the eye again whispering to him.

"Don't stop." She said as she kissed his cheek.

"Sue…" Jack began to protest. She put her finger to his lips. Jack stared into her eyes. She smiled at him.

"I've never been more sure about wanting something as much as I want you. I'm ready. I love you Jack. I've wanted this for a long time, I've just been too nervous, and too shy, to tell you how I feel." Sue said with as much honesty and love she could find.

"I love you too Sue. Same thing… I let too many things get in my way." Jack admitted.

"I want you Jack." She paused, looking at him with a coy smile on her lips. "Now." She whispered. "I want you to be my fir…" She began, but Jack's lips captured hers with a shared eagerness. Sue nearly forgot to breathe as the desire overtook her once again. Jack slowly lifted her shirt over her head and dropped it casually onto the floor. He reached for his, and began pulling it over his own head, Sue pushed it seductively upward. Jack softly reached his hand to her chest, slowly rolling his fingertips along the soft mounds. He trailed a layer of kisses along her shoulder, down her arm to her hands, slowly taking her index finger into his mouth. Sue giggled from the sensation, pulling it away quickly. Jack chuckled as he placed soft caresses along her midriff to the center of her stomach. Sue tried to control her breathing, blowing out nervous breaths. Jack focused on layering his desire equally all over Sue's torso. His hands softly massaged Sue's breasts as his lips continued their attack. Jack's palms rubbed slowly over Sue's hardening tips. His fingers circled around each making them perk up more. Sue moaned with nearly every movement of his hand hands. Jack's lips finally reached the primed targets. His tongue darted out quickly to the rosy tops, as his hands continued to knead the tender skin. Jack's lips covered the perky tops as his tongue circled them continuously. He drew her breast into his mouth, bathing it with his tongue. Sue let out a squeal that made Jack smile. He lightened up on his onslaught.

His hands began to wander to her waist band of her panties. His thumb slipped inside pulling them down, just a bit. He leaned back from her for a quick look to see if there was any hesitation in her eyes. Sue answered his unasked question by placing her own hand inside the back of his waist band to his pajama bottoms. Jack smiled and leaned down to kiss her. His lips softly touched hers, sucking in her bottom lip. He followed the previous laid path to her neck. Sue gasped as he touched her for the first time. Jack could feel his need for her building; he knew he couldn't hold off long. He reached into the drawer of the table next to his bed and took out a condom, putting it on. He positioned himself over Sue, and slowly lowered his body onto hers. She cringed at his entrance. Jack deliberately slowed his progress, being sure not to hurt her. He felt Sue move beneath him. Jack took that to signal he could continue. They began to move in unison, the passion building between them. Both were lost in their own world of desire. As Jack neared his climax, he began to call Sue's name out. She could feel her own nearly spilling over.

"Sue… Sue…" Jack's breath was labored. "Sue…. Sue…" He called again.

"J a c k…" Sue whispered… A smile curled on her lips.

"Sue…" There was a pause. "Sue… Sue… wake up Sue…" Jack's fragrance of sweat and passion began to fade. Sue's eyes sprung open. She looked around and noticed the morning light shining through the blinds. Jack's hand was on her shoulder, he was behind her, his left arm wrapped around her waist underneath her.

"Oh my gosh! Jack!" Sue said as she sat up with a shot.

"You OK?" Jack asked.

"Yes, fine." She said short, embarrassed by the dream she apparently had.

"Did you sleep ok?" She asked, trying to hide her uncomfortable feeling, and embarrassment. She pulled the blanket up to cover herself, shyly.

"I did. You?" He asked, noticing her cheeks turning a dark crimson.

"Yeah… comfy mattress. I- I'm going to shower." She said as she gathered her clothes and hurried to the bathroom.

Jack smiled, raising his eyebrow the way he does, looking innocently sexy. He flashed his trademark smile as he realized that Sue had been dreaming about him. But even the great Jack Hudson couldn't have imagined this dream.
