Author's Note-As I said in the last chapter, this is rated M. I won't be changing the entire story's rating, but this particular chapter is a higher rating.

Rick turned Kate and folded her in his arms before kissing her again, once they had reached the edge of his bed. He was nervous, they both were, and he knew this could make or break them. But he wanted them both to enjoy it.

He slowly ran his hands from her waist to her hips and then back up, following the line of her rib cage, smiling into their kiss when she shuddered against him. He smoothed his hands around the side of her bust, sweeping across her already pebbled nipples eliciting a quiet whimper, before settling his fingers on the top button of his button down that she had put on that morning. He pulled back, wanting to see her for this bit, and felt that warm satisfaction when she leaned forward to chase his lips.

"Easy Kate." He murmured, slowly easing the first disk out of its slot. "I'm right here Sweetheart."

He managed to slip the next three buttons free before she interrupted him. "Rick?"

As he'd promised, he stopped immediately and looked up at her once more. "What's wrong Kate, what's going on?"

She shook her head quickly. "Just, kiss me? Please, Rick I need you to..." he cut off her almost frantic pleading with his mouth as his right hand came up to cup the back of her head. He pulled away after a long moment and leaned his forehead against hers.

"You okay?" She nodded. "You want to keep going?" He waited until she nodded once more before kissing her quickly and undoing the rest of the buttons.

He carefully slipped his hands across her shoulders, underneath the fabric, and slid it off, letting it pool behind her. He took a moment to just look at her, her gorgeous skin encased in deep purple lace. "You're beautiful, you know that?" He whispered against her ear. He could feel the shy smile that graced her face. "Lay down for me Kate."

Kate sat on the edge of the bed before lying back flat with a deep breath. She knew she could trust Rick, knew he would never purposefully hurt her, but given her last two attempts at this, she could be forgiven for being apprehensive.

Rick knelt in front of her and stroked his hands up from her bent knees, up her thighs, until they settled at the waistband of her jeans. He pressed his lips against the ridge of her knee before popping the button and slowly drawing the zipper down.

"You okay?" He asked softly. Kate nodded against his sheets. "Good." With slow gentle movements, Rick slipped his fingers beneath the denim and let Kate raise her hips slightly before peeling her jeans down her perfect legs.

He sat back against his heels once he'd tossed her jeans away from him. He knew that she hadn't planned this, but the black, high-cut cotton was perhaps even more sexy than lace would have been. "How you doing Kate?" He asked his voice low and rough.

"I'm good." She murmured, her own tone lowered by her arousal.

Rick hummed softly. "You ready for me to start this?"

Kate nodded. "I'm ready." She said as she braced herself.

Rick chuckled and moved to sit beside her, gently tracing patterns on the flat plane of her stomach. "Hey, Kate, we can stop now if you need to."

She leaned up on her elbows and kissed his pectoral, having no idea when he lost his shirt. "I want to do this Rick." She assured him again. He leaned down and kissed her sweetly.

"Okay, Baby." He slid his right hand behind her back and snapped her bra clasp, noting the pride that flashed in her gaze at him being able to do it one handed. He smirked as he teased the strap down her arm and slowly slid the garment from her body.

"Rick." Kate murmured. His eyes snapped to hers. "I, I'm not the biggest in the world Rick and..."

He cut off her protest by gently cupping her breast in his hand. She gasped softly.

"Kate, you're perfect." He told her softly. "I don't care how big or small you are." He accentuated his point by flipping his thumb over her nipple making her arch into his touch. He smiled softly and kissed her forehead before lowering his head to her chest.

He gently peppered her pale creamy flesh with tiny kisses before fastening his lips around the dark peak, making her moan. His other hand came into play, teasingly pinching her other nipple, flickering it between his fingers before massaging her entire breast, just as he pressed his teeth against her hardened flesh.

Kate cried out under his ministrations.

Neither of her past partners had been much interested in her pleasure, but Rick seemed to get off on it.

"Rick..." she groaned softly, "Please Rick I need..." she cut herself off as she cried out again prompted by Rick flickering his tongue against her trapped flesh. He pulled away with one last kiss of her neglected nipple, almost a promise to come back later, before trailing his kisses down her stomach while his hands traced each rib individually on their way down to her hips.

Kate couldn't stop her hand from settling in Rick's hair, her fingers tangling with the strands in preparation. Rick kissed the inside of her thighs that she didn't remember spreading for him.

"You doing okay?" Rick asked, his breath hitting her sensitive flesh at just the right angle to make her squirm. He took that as his answer before raising his hand to gently trace her outline through her panties.

Kate arched off the bed suddenly with a whimpered cry before falling down against his sheets, panting hard.

Rick chuckled. "I'm sorry; did I just make you come with my first touch?"

She huffed. "Try not to sound quite so smug about it, 'kay?"

Rick smiled and pulled himself up the bed to kiss her gently. "I'm just glad I can make you feel so good. Not smug Kate, happy and proud." She smiled gently and kissed him again. "Now," he practically growled in her ear, "I wanna taste you, Kate."

She whimpered as he returned to his earlier position and pulled the soaked cotton down her legs, flinging them away before kissing the ridge of her pelvis.

Kate moaned even before he touched her.

"Ready?" Rick husked, receiving a frantic nod from Kate.

He again traced her with a light fingertip before slipping it inside her millimetre by millimetre. She squirmed, thrusting her hips back against the intrusion.

His smiled at her reaction before feather lightly flicking against her clit with the tip of his tongue. She jerked off the bed like she'd been shocked, gasping his name as her hand tightened in his hair. He fastened his mouth around her nub and hummed, causing Kate's entire body to quake as she squealed her way through her next orgasm.

Rick rocked his finger in and out of her, easing her down from her climax as gently as he could.

Once he could feel just the errant contractions of aftershocks around his finger, he eased it out of her and sucked it clean, before slipping off his stupidly tight jeans and crawling up the bed to hold her into his chest, gently smoothing his hand against the back of her head as she tried to catch her breath. She gripped his wrist tightly as she panted against him.

He gave her a minute or so to recover before even trying to get her to hold a conversation. "Are you okay?" He asked softly against her head.

She nodded slowly, as though it took too much effort. "It was just, intense." She whispered breathily. "I, that's, never happened to me before."

He could feel her blushing.

"What? Are you honestly saying you've never had an orgasm before?" Rick asked incredulously.

Kate pulled back to look at him, the blush covering her cheeks escaping her face and tumbling all the way down to her still heaving breasts. The look in her eye spoke of her honestly.

"Oh wow, Kate." Rick murmured before kissing her sweetly. "Thank you." He whispered, leaning their foreheads together once he had pulled back.

"Why are you thanking me?" Kate chuckled shyly.

Rick smiled. "Because you gave me that honour Kate." He didn't think it was possible for her cheeks to get any redder but she proved him wrong. "On that same vein, if you wanna stop here, we can. We don't have to do it all in one go."

Kate shook her head. "I want to feel you Rick." She whispered.

He couldn't help but gasp. But he had to check. He really was okay if she wanted to stop there. "Are you sure? Kate, I don't want to push..." she cut him off with a passionate kiss.

"Rick, I want to do this. And I'm pretty certain you do to." She smiled seductively as she ran the back of her hand against his impressive erection below his boxers. His hips jerked without his permission. "I promise to tell you if I want to stop but I can't leave you like this, and I need you inside me."

Rick groaned into her neck while her quick, clever hands slipped under his boxers and drew them down his legs.

She gasped quietly once he was bare for her. Josh hadn't been small but Rick was at least an inch thicker and maybe two longer.

Rick leaned in and captured her mouth gently as he pulled himself up to hover over her.

"You have to tell me if you need something Kate. Okay? If you need me to slow down, stop, pull out completely..."

"Go faster, harder," Kate continued with a sly grin.

Rick chuckled and quickly sucked the join of her shoulder to her neck, making her shudder. "Minx."

"You enjoy it." Kate shot back.

Rick smiled. "That I do." He kissed her quickly before taking hold of himself and aligning them. Kate tensed as his tip nudged at her entrance. "Kate?"

She shook her head. "Just go slow."

Rick nodded and slowly, gently, fed the first inch inside her.

Kate gasped at the intrusion and her hands clutched at his wrists either side of her head. He looked at her for guidance but she nodded. Rick pulled nearly out before threading the next two inches inside her.

"Oh god Rick please, just get it over with." Kate begged, nervous enough without him dragging it out.

Rick leaned down and kissed her cheek before pressing deep until he sat all the way inside her. He felt Kate panting against his cheek and knew she'd been holding her breath the entire time.

"How's that?" Rick asked softly.

Kate nodded. "Feels good. Just give me a second though."

Rick had no intention of going anywhere. Simply being inside her silken honey-dipped walls was like heaven.

After a few seconds, Kate rolled her hips experimentally, making them both groan. She nodded and Rick started rocking in and out of her.

After a few minutes, Kate whimpered. "Faster, Rick please, I need you to go faster."

Rick complied on a moan and sped up his rocking, still keeping himself deep inside her even when he retreated.

Kate moaned and shook her head. "Please Rick, I won't break."

He kissed her soundly before pulling nearly out and surging back in.

Kate's hips rose to meet him, a guttural sound rising from her throat. "Like that, oh god, just like that."

He moved in and out of her for several minutes before he felt her start to flutter around his length.

"Harder." Kate panted. "Rick, harder, Rick!" She moaned his name as he followed her instructions.

Rick could feel his body wanting to speed up. His biological urges telling him to fuck her, to piston in and out of her until she forget everything but his name, but he knew he couldn't do that now. With any luck, if this went well, there would be time for that later.

For now he forced himself to go just fast and hard enough to satisfy them both.

After several strokes, Kate's moans transformed into sharp, wordless cries. Her grip tightened on his wrist and he knew she was close.

He removed his right hand from her grip and pressed against her clit with his forefinger.

Kate flew apart moments later, crying his name into the atmosphere as her climax trigger his own.

He fell against her, groaning her name into her neck as he spilled into her.

After a minute or so, Rick regained his senses enough to roll off his girlfriend and onto the bed beside her, Kate whimpering softly as he slipped out of her, immediately missing his grounding weight against her.

He wrapped his arm around her shoulders and brought her into his side, her cheek pillowed on his chest while her hand rested against his stomach.

For a few minutes, they just laid there, content in each others arms while they regained the ability to breathe, let alone speak.

"So, how was that for you?" Rick asked sarcastically.

Kate giggled, honest to goodness giggled. "Thank you Rick. You, you made me feel safe." She whispered softly.

Rick squeezed her waist gently. "I told you, I'll never hurt you Kate."

She smiled gently. "I know."
