At Last
Punk pulled up in front of his house two hours later. He jumped out of his car and reached for his keys and unlocked the door. He hadn't been inside of his house since he purchased it. There was furniture that came with the house but it had white sheets covering it. He walked around slowly and checked for any sign of April. He walked down the stairs and checked the large family room then passed by the side door that lead to the garage and saw the glass was broke which meant someone unlocked the door.
Punk wandered around the home and checked every bedroom and he was starting to second guess himself when there was no sign of her. No clothes, no shoes, nothing out of place. He took a big gamble coming here because it was so far out of the way and now he was hours behind her. His next hope would be that she'd call him for help or just to let him know she was alright.
He was walking down the hall to the steps when he saw it. He hadn't even remembered it was there but there was door that lead up the stairs to an attic. He climbed the stairs and entered the empty attic and looked around it and that's when he saw her. She was in the furthest corner of the attic with her eyes shut and her knees pulled up to her chest. She must have heard someone coming and knew there was nowhere to hide.
"Please make it fast." She cried.
"Ape." He said and she looked up at him. "I've been looking for you for weeks."
"Phil." She whispered then jumped up and ran into his arms.
"I've missed you." Punk said holding her tight.
"You have no idea how much I've missed you." She said crying into his neck. "How did you find me? Did I set off an alarm?" She asked pulling away.
"I was there last night in Wisconsin. I watched the house all night and John said you took off today. I remember you wrote in your note you wanted to go to a place with a red door." he said to her.
"You read my note?" She asked instantly feeling embarrassed.
"I did." He said pulling it out of his back jean pocket. "I read it everyday. I heard what John told you last night and I haven't been working. I haven't worked in weeks. I've been driving around Wisconsin looking for you."
"Really? Why?" She asked quietly.
"Because I want you with me." He said honestly. "And not just because it's safer for you but because I want you around. Danger or no danger. Are you ok? Did John hurt you?"
"No." April told him shaking her head. "He's been decent."
"If he was decent he wouldn't have snuck you away." Punk said to her. "Why did you go with them? We talked about this."
"John told me Sawyer was going to kill you." April told him then choked back tears. "I didn't want you to die."
"How can I die when you're always around to save me?" he asked teasingly as he brushed his thumb under her eye to clear away her tears.
"It's not funny." She frowned.
"It's a little funny." He smirked.
"What are we going to do now? Are you going to turn me in?" She asked.
"No." he told her. "We can hide out here for a bit until we think of something else. I'm not actively working and after the shit I've pulled these last few weeks I don't think I'll be working for a while."
"What was the point of you doing that? You're going to blow your own case. I'm your witness." She reminded him.
"You're not my witness." he said then grabbed her face and kissed her.
April felt her body ease in his arms for the first time in weeks. This was when she felt safest. April wrapped her arms around his neck as he tugged her body harder against her. She walked backwards without separating their lips towards a white sheet she laid out in the corner. She wasn't going to lose this opportunity with him again. If almost dying three times taught her anything, it was to live life to the fullest before you go.
April pulled Punk onto the attic floor over the sheet with him on top of her, still not parting their lips. Punk was laying straight across of her body as he devoured her mouth completely. His tongue was practically down her throat and she eagerly sucked on it as she spread her legs so he could cradle his body between her thighs. April made the first brave move by pulling at shirt from the hem and he lifted his face away from hers and helped pull his own shirt off. His ribs were wrapped from the car accident and he saw April look at the injury.
"It's fine." He assured her then leaned back down to kiss her again.
April pushed the thoughts of his injury out of her mind after his assurance he was fine. She had literally been dreaming of this moment since she moved into his apartment. His mouth slid across hers and he began to open mouth kiss her jawline. His hands were pushing her t-shirt up as he did this and April was just basking in the feel. His hands on her bare stomach, his mouth sucking on her face. She hadn't even lost an item of clothing yet and she was already soaking.
Punk pushed her shirt up over her breasts and began to kiss her tummy and she ran her fingers through his hair as he did so. He peppered her stomach with kisses so hot she thought it would burn her. His face moved lover and she was in awe when he used his teeth to unbutton her jeans. His face ran lower over her jean clad covered area but he opened his mouth and bit there. The jeans protected her from the pain but the pressure was so arousing. She moaned out as he moved back up her body and pulled her shirt off completely. She sat up slightly and he unclasped her bra then grabbed her face and kissed her again as he lowered her back onto the floor.
Her bra was still on but barely hanging onto her shoulder. Punk was already pulling her jeans down as she rested her back against the floor and it wasn't just her jeans, her panties came right down with them and she felt so exposed to him but yet, not uncomfortable. He sat up on his knees and admired her body. April reached her arms forward and began to tug at his jeans that came down over his hips easily and also revealed he didn't have on boxers. She reached out and began to stroke him and he laid across her body again, tugging her bra completely off now. His face was buried in her hair now as he arched into her hands and he instantly stiffened in her tiny hands.
Punk's hand moved down her stomach and he began to run two fingers up and down her slit and she was drenched in want. He slid both fingers into her eagerly and she gasped in pleasure. She felt his thumb play with her nub. She pulled his hand away, taking his fingers out of her and used her other hand to bring his member to her entrance. She teased him first running her slit up and down him to lubricate him a bit then guided him inside of her body. He gently pushed her hand out of the way as the tip of him was inside of her. He looked her directly in the eyes and she nodded for him to move all the way in. She grabbed his face but didn't force him to kiss her she just wanted to see into his eyes.
Finally Punk pushed into her through her walls completely and she never shut her eyes. Punk let out a satisfied breath though. It was like he had an itch for weeks he couldn't scratch and finally someone was doing it for him. He began to move his hips slowly and placed the thumb that was playing with her into her mouth on the side and she sucked on it, only arousing him further and forcing him to move faster. Punk sucked on her bottom lip since her mouth was parted slightly do to his thumb inside of it and April was trying to concentrate on matching his pace but his lips and fingers were distracting her as well. She orgasmed after four thrusts but he was just moving faster.
Punk's tongue grew jealous of his own thumb so he replaced his tongue with his thumb and he was back trying to dive into her throat as he used his hands to keep some of his weight off of her as he thrust into her harder and harder.
April was feeling a bit embarrassed when she felt a second orgasm rock through her body causing her to scream out in pleasure. Punk and her were just getting started and she was losing it like crazy but she didn't want it to stop either. Punk rolled them over and April sat up on him and began to ride him. This was his new favorite thing to watch. Her breasts bounced as her body rode him up and down until her hands moved over her own breasts and began to cup and play with them. Punk licked his lips and felt himself get closer and closer to his limit but he waited too long for this to end. He sat up and he wrapped his one arm around her hip to halt her movements and he was now perfectly still inside of her.
His mouth began to suck on her nipple and she was moaning out trying to move her hips because even though she lost it so many times, she was about to lose it again but he wouldn't let her move. All she could do was look down as he pleasured her like no other man ever had before. She racked her nails through his messy and now sweaty hair and tried to pry his mouth off of her so she could kiss him but he was seemingly enjoying himself too much.
She was finally able to get his attention and he looked up at her with desperate eyes and she kissed him as deeply and as hard as she could. She wanted him to feel how she felt about him through this kiss, just like she felt the way he felt. He kissed her back and gently thrust up into her as his hands ran over her bare back.
April's need for air forced her to pull away from his glorious mouth and she hugged him as close to his body as she could as she gently moved her hips. Punk was kissing her neck when she came for the third time but it was so much better because he joined her. She felt her body go limp in his arms but he was still kissing her neck. She moaned quietly as she arched her neck a bit so he could still kiss her.
"So good." he hummed against her skin.
"Mmhmm." She moaned in agreement.
Half an hour later Punk and AJ were getting dressed and April groaned in annoyance.
"What?" Punk asked.
"I really need a shower." She said to him. "I would have liked to have cleaned up."
"I told you I have no running water here." He shrugged. "Why would I pay bills on a house no one lives in?"
"I didn't think of that before I came here." She said buttoning up her jeans. "So, what now?"
"We stay here." Punk told her. "No one knows about this place yet but John will figure it out soon."
"You're right." April said to him. "So we just do what?" She asked.
"We hide out until Adam and Beth arrest James." Punk told her. "They will."
"Is this illegal?" She asked
"No." He laughed. "You're not on the run from the law. You're not refusing to testify you're just refusing witness protection which is your prerogative."
"What about us?" She asked.
"There's a lot going on Ape." Punk said to her. "But I wouldn't be doing this if I didn't want you in my life."
"I'm pretty annoying." She warned and he laughed. "And I leave wet towels on the floor."
"I'm well aware of who you are." He said cupping her face and nipping her lips.
"You're going to make me really sad about dying." She warned with a nervous smile.
"Stop saying that." he said letting go of her. "You clearly can't be killed." He teased.
"Was John made I left?" April asked.
"Yea he was but good." Punk said to her. "We don't want to keep John happy. Did you hear him talking to anyone? Any idea what he was planning?"
"I heard him talking to his wife a lot." April told him. "But we didn't speak much. He didn't try anything with me. He did lie about what you were up to though."
"He knew you'd try to find me." Punk said to her. "Yet you didn't." he said. "Why didn't you try to call me?"
"They wouldn't let me near a phone." April said to him. "And John told me you were fine and back to work. Why would you want to hear from me?"
"You knew better than that." Punk scolded lightly. "I thought that kiss we shared before we were found-"
"You remember the kiss?" She asked and he laughed.
"You think that I'd forget that?" He asked amused.
"You were barely awake. I kind of jumped you." She reminded him.
"You can jump me anytime." he said seriously and she laughed. "We should stay up here tonight." he told her.
"Ok." She said sitting on the floor.
"There's something I need you to do." Punk said standing over her and she looked up as he passed her his phone. "Call your dad. He's worried sick."
"Do they know what happened?" She asked taking the phone.
"Your dad knows you went into WITSEC but not why. Just tell him you're with me and you're ok." Punk told her and she nodded.
"I didn't think I'd get to speak to them ever again." April said to him. "Thank you."
"You did this yourself. You're too smart for your own good sometimes." He said to her then eyed her.
"What?" She asked before she called her father.
"What were you going to do?" he asked her.
"I was going to live in your attic. And when you eventually retried and moved here with your family I'd pretend to be a ghost or something." She shrugged.
"That was you plan? To be a ghost?" he asked trying not to laugh.
"Not a real ghost, duh." She said with a roll of her eyes and he shook his head in amusement then put the phone to her ear. "Daddy, its me." she greeted with a smile.
While April spoke to her father Punk walked over tot he window that looked out into the street and made sure it was clear. Across the street was a family getting out of their car. A husband, wife, baby and a dog. He was envious of that life while he hid in the attic of his home with April but hearing her laughing as she spoke on the phone was the best thing he had ever heard. It was going to be ok. Even though April asked what they were going to do he still wasn't too sure even though he tried to reassure her but this was bigger than him.
"What are we going to eat?" Punk asked after she got off the phone.
"I have food in my bag." April said almost smugly and he sat down next to her on the blanket and unzipped the bag.
"Ape, it's all crap." he frowned.
"That's all they had at the gas station during the bus stop." She shrugged.
"I have to try to get out of here and get us some food." Punk said passing her back her bag.
"No." She said to him. "We're fine here."
"I wouldn't leave you behind." He smirked. "I can't let you out of my sight apparently."
"I just need a shower." She said leaning into him.
"We'll get to a motel at some point." Punk told her. "Don't worry you'll get your four hour shower."
"You sound annoyed when you said that but you can join me in the shower now." She reminded him and his eyes widened.
"Maybe we'll make it longer." he suggested.
"Was I uh..." She trailed off nervously.
"Were you what?" He asked seriously.
"Ok?" She asked quietly and eyed her with confusion.
"Ok with what?" he asked and she rolled her eyes annoyed.
"Before! I haven't been with someone for a long time." She admitted.
"You were...I think my body made it clear how I thought you were." He said to her and she gave him a blank look. "You were great, Ape." he clarified.
"Are you sure?" She asked and he laughed.
"You want to go again so I can prove it to you? Or maybe we should go again since you feel out of practice." He suggested.
"I mean, it's not like we have anything else to do..." she trailed off and he quickly pinned her on the floor and grinned.
"That is true. And I am starving." he said to her and moaned at the innuendo.
Punk's hand went right up her shirt and she laughed which made him laugh.
"It kind of hurts my ego when you laugh while I'm touching you." Punk warned grinning.
"I would take that as a hint." A third voice said and Punk and AJ turned their heads and saw John. "Fun is over." he told them and Punk pulled his hand out of April's shirt and stood up. "You both are in way over your head."
"How did you find me?" Punk asked annoyed.
"I looked into property you own and took a stab in the dark." John said to him. "This wasn't far from where the accident took place either so whoever tried to kill you both that night knows this house is here as well."
"You mean you." Punk said to him and John shook his head.
"April go down and wait in my car." John ordered her.
"Don't boss her around." Punk warned him. "She's staying here with me."
"And you're going to do what?" John asked. "You didn't even hear me coming in!"
"I'm not going back with you." April said standing up and next to Punk. "I don't want to be in the program."
"And what do you think is going to happen?" Cena asked "You think Jeremy Sawyer is going to be magically arrested and you and your US Marshal are going to live in his loft and be able to pretend none of this ever happened? Or pretend that half of the attraction and lust is really just from the danger of this situation?"
"Shut the fuck up." Punk warned him. "We have to go." he told April looking at her. "If he's here, his friend Sawyer is on the way."
"I am not working with him!" John yelled as April quickly grabbed her bag.
"If you follow us, I will kill you." Punk threatened.
"You're making a big mistake." John warned them. "Sawyer is on to you but it's not because of me.'
"Ape, go downstairs." Punk told her.
"Are you sure?" she asked nervously. "What if he tries something?"
"I didn't even bring my gun in." John yelled his arms up and tugging on his jeans to show he didn't have his second piece on his ankle.
"It's fine." Punk told April. "I'll meet you at the car."
"Ok." She said brushing past John and walking down the stairs.
April was outside but looking up at the window in case she heard them arguing. But she was distracted when she heard a car pulling into the driveway and was about to run until she saw Adam get out of the car.
"Where's Punk?" Adam asked her.
"He's upstairs with John." She told him. "You should get up there because I think they're going to-"
April's sentence was cut short due to the bullet ripping through her body. She fell back on the front lawn and raised her hand to see it covered in blood then suddenly Adam was standing over her pointing his gun at her head.
"You've made this extremely difficult for me." Adam said cocking his gun back again.
