Chapter 20.

"I think I need to return the favour Prince Charming" and that was it, she set about her business with a determined look on her face as she, quite frankly ravished my body. Fucking hell, she WAS a firecracker. Screaming out as I came I found myself wrapped up in her strong embrace. Jesus, for someone so small, she was pretty strong. I came down to Earth slowly and just nuzzled into her neck as I lay there contented, Emily dropping little kisses onto my head and those hands...those hands of hers were still setting fire to my skin.

I lifted my head up and kissed her button nose. Giving her an Eskimo kiss into the bargain.

"You're pretty damned perfect yourself Cinders" I put my head down and dozed for a few minutes. Content to bask in our after sex glow.

I sighed and opened my eyes. I'd dozed off for a while by the looks of things. Jesus, what was it about this woman? She totally undid me. I was not the walking talking bad attitude I'd become. It was darker in my living room and I assumed it was much later in the afternoon. I could hear the steady thump of Emily's heart from where my head rested, and felt her fingers running through my hair. I lifted my head and saw deep browns eyes looking back at me. I smiled and leaned up to kiss Emily's perfect lips.

"We'd better shut those doors, the rains getting in."

Huh? What rain? I frowned and put my hand behind me and felt the floor behind me. It WAS wet. I looked back up at Emily. She smiled at me and kissed my forehead. Shit, she must think I've got no stamina if I'd been asleep on the poor woman for ages. Truth was, I felt so relaxed and chilled in her company. I'd really let those walls I'd built up down. I must have looked a little sheepish. She ran the back of her hand down my cheek and smiled

"I've not long woke up myself, you looked so peaceful lying there, I just wanted to let you rest for a while. I've been a little stressed with Kate and her stupid husband and everything. It was nice to just fall asleep with you." She smiled slyly, "not that I didn't enjoy what we did to get so tired." She kissed me and stood up, wrapped up in a blanket and stood in front of the open doors.

I stood up and stretched, walking naked over to her. I grabbed the blanket off her, laughing as she squealed and quickly wrapped both of us up in it. My chin on her shoulder and arms circling her waist. She leaned her head back, exposing her neck a little. We stood for a few minutes, both breathing in the fresh smell.

"What you doing tomorrow Ems?" I asked to break the silence. I was always shite at silences. I started placing small kisses on her neck, breathing in her scent.

"Nothing." She 'hhhhmmmmeed' as I nibbled at a pulse point in her neck. "I was going to just relax and do very little, but Kate's in mine. She's better than she was after our chat, but I can't be bothered with her at the minute. She's thinking about taking that arse back."

"Yeah? Well, I'd love it if you'd stay over?" I decided to swallow down those insecurities of mine and get cheeky. "Maybe try the bedroom instead of the floor?" I ran my hand down her flat stomach and gently cupped her centre, feeling the heat there and hearing her groan as I dipped my fingers in her wetness. She turned in my arms and kissed me roughly, her tongue demanding entry. A kiss full of passion and want and need I guess. Didn't matter what it was to me, it was fucking horny as hell and if it was at all possible, I was getting even more turned on.

I moved quickly and hooked an arm under her legs and my other arm around her waist, and acting all macho and butch; I carried her off to the bedroom. A little more in control again

I got her onto the bed but she managed to somehow flip me over and straddled me. Balancing her weight with her hands either side of my shoulders. I took advantage of her being exposed to my wandering hands and carried on stroking her clit. Fuck she was wet. She rocked against my hand, her eyes closed, her movements becoming more erratic and frantic as she reached her climax. She opened her eyes staring at me after I begged her to open them. She cried out as she came and collapsed onto me.

I put my arms around her and hugged her close. I could not get enough of this woman.

"You figured out yet why we can't keep our hands off each other Em's?"

"Yeah, I fancy the fucking pants off you Naomi" I felt her smile against my neck and then those talented lips and hands got to work with the rest of me, moving to all the right places, teasing and touching me into submission.

We spent a while making love. There was no other word for it. It wasn't fucking, even when we got frantic, it was making love. I lay in my bed with Emily snuggled up next to me. Neither of us were asleep, but we were both sated from our exertions. Talk about breaking your drought. I idly traced patterns on the arm she had slung over me, and she was gently placing little kisses over the skin she could reach without moving her head.

"You hungry Ems?" She lifted her head and looked at me.

"We're talking food here right?"

"Yes Emsy, food. That's what I was doing in Tesco yesterday babe. Buying food. Real food." We both laughed and made a move to leave our love nest. It was difficult, but after locking lips a few more times we managed to leave the comfort of my bed. I pulled on some shorts and a T-shirt, grabbing some clean ones for Emily. I offered them to her. She looked at me with a raised eyebrow.

"Not that I dislike seeing you naked, but if you want to eat some real food, you'd better cover up a little. It's been well established by now that I can't help myself around you babes."

Hand in hand I strolled into the kitchen with a now clothed Emily in tow. She looked so cute in my clothes, the shorts hanging by knees and the t shirt almost like a dress it was that long. We'd worked together and managed to make a decent enough dinner in between the stolen kisses and touches.

I'd not shut the windows and the drizzle had turned into a full on thunder and lightning storm which raged while we ate the meal we'd made. Well, ok Emily had made and I'd followed her around the kitchen like a puppy interfering in everything.

I managed to check my phone while I was in the toilet in case Tony'd tried to call me. I turned it on and was met with a text from Effy. It was simple.

"AND?"

I smiled and texted her back.

"And we're getting along just fine thank you. I fell asleep on her. I feel vulnerable Eff. She scares me, it all comes tumbling down when she's around. She's staying the night, I'll call tomorrow, if Tony calls, tell him my phones off. X. P.S Yes, she's bendy"

I walked out to the living room. Emily was putting her phone away in her bag with an embarrassed look on her face at being caught. Huh, bet she was texting Panda. We ended up watching a DVD lying on the couch wrapped up in a blanket and each other. I say watching, I don't think much watching was done by either of us. Needless to say the night ended with us tangled up in the sheets of my bed loving each other yet again. I don't think a scale had been invented that went high enough to score how well the date went. Nope. She was perfect.

I woke up with red hair fanned out across my chest and Emily's warm breath on my neck. I tried to gently stretch to ease my aching muscles. Fuck. I had aches in places I never knew existed, and definitely had aches in places that hadn't been used (or should that be abused) like that in some time.

Emily murmured something in her sleep, wriggled tightened her grip on me and promptly moved her knee so it was pressing on my bladder. Ahhhhh... fuck, I needed a piss now, and my arms are full of adorable, button nosed Emily.

I managed to wiggle out from under her and grabbed my shorts and shirt when where they'd been thrown last night. Ah fuck I really did ache like a bitch. I looked at Emily snuggling up to my pillow and smiled. Fuck she was gorgeous. Grabbing my phone, I padded lightly to the bathroom to relive myself. Turning on my phone it booted up and started blinking two messages to me from Tony

"Mystery girl called Crimestoppers again last night Naoms. Still no idea who she is. Tony."

I opened the second message.

"By the way Studly, I told you matching underwear was the way to go. T"

Fuck, I wanted this twatting job over with.
