Chapter 8: Blow Out the Candles

A/N: Hey guys! Thanks again for reading. Fair notice, this chapter is rated M for a really good reason. It's basically pure, smut, so if you aren't into porny goodness, you should NOT read this chapter. You've been warned. Otherwise, I hope you enjoy!

April wiggled around in the bed she was sharing with Jackson, unable to fall asleep. As content and happy as she was, there was something gnawing at the back of her head, keeping her from some much needed snoozing. After an hour of tossing and turning, the redhead finally gave up. Slipping out of the covers, she glanced at the man splayed out on the soft mattress. Jackson looked peaceful in his sleep, his mouth slightly open as he let out a soft snore. April giggled at the noise that came out of his mouth- she thought that his tendency to talk in his sleep was adorable. Pulling a light sweater over her tank top and shorts, April slipped on a pair of slippers and quietly exited the hotel room, hoping that some fresh air would help clear her mind. She paced outside of the large resort building, before catching a glimpse of some familiar blonde hair and walking towards her friend. Arizona Robbins was leaning against the resort's brick wall, the glowing embers of a lit cigarette in her mouth casting a soft glow onto her face.

"Arizona? What are you doing out h- wait, you smoke?"

Arizona smiled guiltily, putting out the cigarette quickly and waving away the smoke in the air. "Only rarely. I know, it's terrible, and I'm a doctor, but I couldn't sleep and…" She shrugged, before surveying April. "What's on your mind?"

April sighed. "I've got a lot on my mind," she confided in the blonde woman across from her. Arizona nodded understandingly.

"You're thinking about sex," Arizona said bluntly. Noticing April's blush, she smiled continued, "It's all over your face, April."

April knew that Arizona was right, the real reason behind her nerves was thinking about sex with Jackson. "It's just- Jackson and I kissed. A lot. And I can't help but want…more, you know? But I'm a virgin, and he's Jackson Avery. What if I do it wrong?" It was a huge relief to admit her worries out loud to Arizona.

Arizona tilted her head to the side. "April, do you trust him?"

April nodded. That one was a no-brainer.

"Are you attracted to him? You know, sexually?"

April raised her eyebrows in disbelief at the woman across from her. "Uh, have you seen him?"

Arizona laughed. The redhead did have a point- if Arizona wasn't a lesbian and in love with Callie, she would definitely hit that. "Then go for it. You'll be great, April. You just have to be confident."

April looked at the floor. Confidence was definitely not April's strong suit. Seeing the look on the redhead's face, Arizona put her hand on April's shoulder. "I promise. It'll be awesome. You'll be awesome." April smiled gratefully at her friend. The pediatric surgeon's words were really helping her.

"I'm going to hug you now," April announced, wrapping her arms around the older woman. Arizona smiled and hugged her back tightly. Finally, she pulled away and winked at April.

"Go get him, tiger."


April tiptoed quietly into the room and next to the bed. Arizona's pep talk was just what she needed to give her a confidence boost, and she was ready to go there with Jackson. The girl shrugged off her slippers and sweater as she watched Jackson mumble quietly in his sleep. Taking a deep breath, she poked her friend in the arm.

"Jackson," she whispered. Jackson stirred, blinking groggily at April.

"Are you alright?" he asked, alarmed. April bit her bottom lip and nodded. Jackson sat up in bed, looking up at the girl standing in front of him. "What's up?"

"Jackson, I want to."

Jackson rubbed his eyes, confused. "Want to what?" Seeing April's exasperated glare, his eyes darkened and his mouth dropped open. Jackson quickly scrambled out of the bed, standing up facing the girl so his lips were less than an inch away from April's. "Are you sure?" April nodded. She wasn't before, but after her talk with Arizona, she had never been surer of anything.

"Positive," she murmured. Jackson grinned, diving in to capture April's mouth. They kissed passionately, heat flooding through their bodies. Jackson softly pushed April onto the bed and climbed on top of her, his lips never leaving hers. He wanted April's first time to be nothing short of perfection. It was Jackson's first time with a virgin, and he couldn't help but feel a little bit nervous as their tongues danced leisurely. What if it wasn't good for her? Jackson's lips moved to April's earlobe, lightly sucking and pulling on the soft flesh. April moaned, closing her eyes and leaning her head back to grant him more access. Jackson smirked against her pale skin. He loved how sensitive April's neck was. He kissed his way down the girl's neck, pausing when he reached the hickey he had given her earlier. It had already gotten darker, and he knew that she wouldn't be able to hide it with makeup. The thought that everybody would know about the pleasure he gave her made him strangely happy. Maybe it was a little bit territorial, but Jackson wanted everybody to see that the beautiful redhead was his. He lapped at the bruise, kissing it softly before he continued down to her collarbone. April gasped at the feel of his warm tongue on her skin.

"Take this off," April commanded, pulling at the undershirt he was wearing to sleep in. Jackson gladly obliged, pulling the thin cotton garment off in one fluid movement. April breathlessly ran her fingers down his chest, tracing his defined muscles with her fingers. Jackson smiled slightly. He knew that his body drove April crazy. Buzzing with a strange surge of confidence, April flipped Jackson over so she was straddling him. She experimentally kissed the top of his chest, smiling when she heard the groan that escaped his lips. Growing bolder, she trailed downwards, depositing a gentle kiss at the top of his abs. Jackson shivered at the touch of her mouth on his stomach, feeling his sweatpants grow slightly tighter. April sucked lightly on the toned skin, relishing the noises he made. She loved the effect her mouth was having on Jackson. Shuddering with arousal, Jackson caressed April's face and pulled her mouth up to meet his. They kissed sensually, hands roaming each other's bodies. Jackson's hands found themselves at the bottom of April's tank top, tugging lightly at the fabric.

"Can I take this off?" he asked softly, green eyes boring into her hazel ones.

April nodded self-consciously, fighting the urge to cross her arms around her chest as he peeled the thin shirt off, leaving her lying in just a bra. Jackson's eyes turned dark as his eyes feasted at the girl in front of him. The moonlight shining through the curtains bounced off her fair skin, highlighting her creamy stomach and breasts. Moving so that he was on top of the girl, Jackson placed his lips next to her belly button, nipping and licking at her soft flesh. April purred softly as Jackson's lips trailed up, pressing open-mouthed kisses to her skin. Jackson slowly pushed the strap of her bra to the side, biting softly at the exposed skin. April squirmed, desperate for more. She moved to pull her bra off, but Jackson stopped her.

"Let me," he murmured quietly.

April's skin flushed as Jackson's skilled hands slipped under her back and unclasped her bra. He slowly slipped the straps off her shoulders, pulling the undergarment off and tossing it behind him. He was totally unprepared for the sight that was waiting for him. April was lying on the bed in just her pajama shorts, her tangled red hair spread out to make a halo around her face. She was gazing up at him, skin pink and hazel eyes heavily lidded in arousal. His eyes trailed downwards and he felt himself grow impossibly hard. April's breasts were breathtaking. They were soft and round, her rosy nipples providing a stark contrast against her white skin. Jackson didn't waste a second before diving down and capturing a stiff nipple in his mouth. He smiled against the pink flesh when April groaned. His hand massaged her other breast as he kissed and licked at chest. He couldn't get enough of the way her back arched off of the mattress when he rolled it between his teeth, or the soft noises she released.

"Jackson," she breathed. He climbed up to her mouth, kissing her frantically as his hand moved southward. Jackson cupped April's thigh, tracing patterns on her skin.

"Is this okay?" Jackson asked quietly into her mouth as his hand slipped up between the tops of her thighs. April nodded quickly, unable to form words. It felt better than anything else in the world. April moaned loudly as his fingers brushed that place. Scratch that, this felt better than anything else in the world. Jackson smiled against her mouth as he stroked her over her shorts. April grinded her hips against his hand, eager for more. It was the sexiest thing Jackson had ever seen in his life, and his dick felt like it was going to burst through his sweatpants. April struggled to push her shorts down, gesturing for Jackson to finish the job. He pulled the small piece of cloth down her legs and threw it to the side, not caring to see where it landed. Jackson's breath caught in his throat when he saw the large wet spot on her light pink panties. April cried out in pleasure as Jackson's fingers rubbed her clit through her underwear.

She screamed his name as she came, stars blurring her vision as her back arched. Her nails raked down his back as she lay beneath him, legs quivering. He beamed at the dreamy look on her face, ecstatic that he had caused her pleasure. April breathed heavily as she recovered from her orgasm.

"Wow," she panted as Jackson leaned over to kiss her. Her small hands roved his chest as they kissed slowly, slowly brushing down until they reached the band of his sweatpants. Jackson let out a strangled noise as April's hand found his erection, causing April to giggle. She pulled her lips away from his with a pop and slid down his body, straddling his knees as she played with the drawstrings of his pants. He moaned gutturally when April pulled the pants off, releasing his erection. April gazed in awe at his penis, admiring the soft skin and pink head. April had seen plenty of penises before, she was a doctor after all, but she had never seen one quite so beautiful. She experimentally wrapped her hand around it, grinning at the growl that he made. She felt strangely giddy- she was the reason he was so hard. It was beautiful, and she wanted it inside of her. Now.

"Condom," she murmured, eyes dark. Jackson nodded hastily, springing up and reaching into his suitcase. He procured the foil packet quickly, tearing it open and rolling it onto his waiting length before diving back onto the bed. He stared into April's black eyes, as he pulled her damp underwear off and positioned himself at her entrance.

"Are you ready?" he asked, slipping his hand down to stroke her gently. She was wetter than any girl Jackson had ever been with, something that turned him on immensely. April nodded.

"Yes."

Jackson looked at her. "I don't want to hurt you."

April leaned up to place a kiss on his mouth. "You won't."

Jackson kissed her softly as he slowly slipped into her body. She was so tight around his member he felt like he could come right then. He slowly began to thrust in and out, careful to be gentle. April moaned in pleasure when he hit a certain spot inside of her, digging her nails into his back and grinding against him. Jackson shivered as he moved, knowing that he would come soon. His fingers rubbed April's bundle of nerves, causing her to yell out. He could feel how close she was.

"Come for me," he whispered. April screamed out as her second orgasm hit her, sending sparks through her body. She clenched around him as Jackson came, moaning her name as he rode out the wave of pleasure. He kissed her softly before rolling off of her, tossing the condom into the trashcan next to the bed.

"That was…" April trailed off.

"Amazing," Jackson finished. April nodded, a smile growing on her mouth.

"Amazing," she repeated as she curled into his neck. April's eyes fluttered shut, sleep finally overcoming her.
