Chapter Six : A Special Evening and Phone Stunts.

Crowley and Elizabeth sat at Crowley's house curled up on his leather sofa in the living room. Both of their eyes were focused on the television in front of them. Elizabeth was resting her head against Crowley's chest as he wrapped an arm around her holding her close to him.

To be honest though neither one of them were completely paying attention to the news program. They both had far too much on their minds at the moment.

Crowley glanced down at the glass of whiskey that he was holding in his free hand before he glanced at his girlfriend. He couldn't help but to feel that it wasn't right for him to be drinking in front of her. Now that he knew what he knew about her.

He cleared his throat as he glanced down at her. "Liz darling are you sure you're okay with...me drinking this ?"

She looked up at him giving him a soft reassuring smile. This was the third time he had asked her this. It was nice to know that he was concerned about her comfort. "Yeah. It really doesn't bother me. Honest. I mean my aunt owns a roadhouse, sweetheart. Occasionally I help out and work there on the weekends when they're short on wait staff. So I'm used to being around...it."

"Yeah, but it doesn't... you know make...you..." He paused not sure how to ask her exactly what he was thinking without making it sound offensive.

She let out a sigh knowing what he was trying to say. He wanted to know if she still had cravings. If seeing someone drink made her want a drink too.

She bit her bottom lip feeling a little awkward about this whole subject. She spoke up as she finished his sentence. "have cravings."

He nodded his head feeling a little bad that he'd asked her. What if she was offended by his question ?

Elizabeth shook her head as she spoke. "It was pretty hard at first. Seeing people drink...I really wanted to break down and just have a drink. It would just be a little sip or at least that's what I tried to tell myself. I knew better though. I knew that if I took even a sip that I'd lose everything I worked so hard to achieve."

She paused for a moment a lump developing in the back of her throat. She cleared her throat before continuing. "It's gotten better though...easier, as time goes on. I know that I can never go back. The second I have another drink is the second I lose everything. People act kind of weird about it now. I mean drinking in front of me...most of the time I just wish they'd treat me like a normal person though."

He gave her an apologetic look feeling bad that he had even brought it up. She leaned up giving him a gentle kiss before pulling away and speaking. "Thank you for asking though. It means a lot to me to know that you care about my comfort."

They sat in silence for a moment as they both stared back at the television. Elizabeth had way more on her mind at the moment than her past issues with alcohol.

The main thing she was thinking about was...well sex. She still hadn't gone that far with Crowley yet. They had gotten so close more than a few times, but she always put a stop to it.

She had spent the past week thinking about it, letting the idea of being intimate with him roll around in her head. She had been celibate since she had become sober. She hadn't even really wanted to have sex since she had gotten clean. That was until Crowley came into her life.

She was so afraid though. She was insecure about her body, since the accident. She hadn't even been able to build up the confidence to wear a bikini this summer. How was she supposed to let Crowley see her nude if she couldn't even handle being in a bikini ?

Tonight was the night though. She had spent all week long trying to work up her confidence for what she was planning to do tonight.

She had no idea how to approach the situation though. It wasn't like she could just blurt out 'hey let's have sex'. Yes saying that probably would get the point across but it wasn't exactly romantic.

She considered the idea of being intimate with him as something that needed to be special because he was special to her. He meant so much to her.

He had treated her better in the short time that they had been dating, than anyone had ever treated her before. Her ex Andy may have made empty promises to her that he would treat her like a queen, but Crowley had done just that and so much more in the past month.

When she was with him she felt completely elated, so beautiful, and like she really was a good person despite her past.

She tried to push away any anxieties that she had about tonight as she took him by surprise leaning up and pressing a kiss to his lips.

She frowned ignoring the taste of his whiskey on his breath as she deepened the kiss. They kissed for a long while before she pulled away speaking up beginning to grow even more nervous. "I have a surprise for you."

"Oh do you ?" he asked a smile developing along his face.

She nodded her head taking his hand in hers as they stood up. He let go of her hand as he laid his half empty glass down on the coffee table. He reached for the remote turning the television off.

He let her take his hand again as she led him upstairs to his bedroom. As soon as his bedroom door shut behind them he leaned down connecting his lips with hers.

They kissed for only a moment before she pulled away from him. She spoke her cheeks flushing as she began to grow even more anxious. "Wait here."

Elizabeth made her way into the bathroom shutting the door behind her. She spotted her purse grateful that she had remembered to bring it up here when she had first arrived at the house.

She reached down into her purse retrieving what she needed. Thank god for her gigantic purse. She had spent her lunch break going out to buy this. She stared down at the lingerie feeling anxious.

She quickly changed into it before she studied herself in the mirror. The baby-doll and the matching thong were a soft pale blue. The baby-doll was chiffon and silk. The bottom half of it was very see through. Her breasts were covered by the same silk that the thong was made out of.

She ran her hands through her hair trying to straighten it out and flatten out some of the frizz. She stared at her reflection trying to work up her confidence.

All she could focus on though were the pink scars that stood out across her pale skin. She stared down at her thighs frowning. Why did she have to have such fat thighs ? And she didn't even want to get started thinking about the fat that had accumulated around her waist. She felt so pathetic.

She took a deep breath trying to ignore her insecurities. She should feel gorgeous and sexy right now not hideous. It was far too late to turn back now. She would hate herself if she chickened out.

She hesitantly reached out opening the bathroom door and stepping out into the dimmed bedroom. The only light in the room was coming from his beside lamps.

She locked her eyes with Crowley's silently praying that he liked this. She felt her cheeks flush as she noticed the way he was staring at her.

He had been sitting on the edge of his bed waiting for her until she had left the bathroom. He stood up letting out a breath that he hadn't realized he had been holding.

She was perfect.

He reached out for her noticing how anxious she looked. She wasn't the only one. He was nervous as hell right now.

Crowley knew that she had expectations for their first time together, and he worried that he wouldn't be able to fulfill all of her expectations.

She was younger than him and he worried that he wouldn't have the stamina to keep up with her. It had been so long since he had done this with anyone.

There had been a few drunken one night stands through out the years, but those didn't necessarily compare to this. This was special. He cared about her and he wanted her to know just how much she meant to him. Just how much he adored her.

He spoke up hoping that his voice hid any anxiety. "You look so amazing."

She gave him an uneasy smile as she walked over to him letting him take her in his arms. He wrapped his arms around her holding her gently as he leaned down pressing a kiss to her lips.

He noticed that she felt a little tense in his arms so he pulled away looking down at her. "Are you sure darling. I don't want you to feel like you have to do this if it makes you uncomfortable."

She nodded her head as she spoke. "Yes I'm sure."

They kissed again before she pulled away making a small request. "If I get uncomfortable and say stop you...won't be mad at me for chickening out again ?"

"Of course. I could never be mad at you darling. I promise. We'll go slow okay." He said doing his best to reassure her.

She led him over to the bed before they both got in it climbing underneath the covers. She laid down beside him letting him study her for a moment before he moved over her and leaned down giving her a deep kiss.

She returned his kisses as she let her hands run down his shirt. She began to unfasten the buttons of his dress shirt slowly before she helped him remove the shirt and throw it across the room.

She moved away from the kisses letting her eyes scan his bare torso. She hadn't realized that he was actually pretty fit though he did have a bit of pudge around his stomach, seeing as she had only seen him in dress shirts and the t-shirts he slept in.

She reached out wrapping her arms around his waist as he ran his hands up her sides caressing her soft skin underneath the baby-doll. He gave her a questioning look before she nodded her head allowing him to pull the baby-doll over her head.

She felt her cheeks flush as he let his eyes run over her body. She spoke up barely above a whisper as she felt her insecurities surfacing. "You don't think I'm gross ?"

He looked down at her realizing just how low her self-esteem really was. He reached out caressing her cheek as he spoke. "You are the most beautiful woman I've ever laid eyes on. Don't ever think anything different."

Just to prove his point he got her to roll over before he leaned down pressing his lips against the scars along her back. She felt a few tears leak out of the corners of her eyes as he pressed kisses to every scar along her body.

When he finished he got her to roll back over. He frowned noticing the tears fearing that he had somehow upset her. She did her best to give him a smile before she spoke up saying something that completely took his breath away. "I love you."

He leaned down kissing her before he pulled away. "I love you too."

She felt a bit bolder as she kissed him and trailed her hands down his torso reaching his belt. She undid the belt as he reached down unzipping his pants.

He pulled away from the kiss as he worked his pants and his boxers off kicking them down somewhere at the foot of the bed. She felt her cheeks flush as she let her eyes trail down his body taking him fully in.

He let his hands trail down her body as he reached the last article of clothing she had on. He removed the thong before he leaned down pressing kisses to her neck.

He worked his lips down her neck before reaching his destination. She let out a soft sigh as his lips reached her ample breasts. Her eyes widened as she felt his hand trail up her thigh.

He pulled his attention away from her breasts as he spoke up noticing her tense a little. "It's okay darling. Trust me you'll enjoy this."

She nodded her head silently. She felt a little ridiculous. She wasn't a virgin. She was far from it, but she had never had anyone be this gentle and loving with her before.

Elizabeth felt a bit ashamed thinking of her past experiences with men especially her intoxicated ones.

She was afraid that she wouldn't be what Crowley was probably expecting. She didn't have very long to focus on these worries as she felt his fingers press against her rubbing lightly. She took herself and him by surprise as she reached down placing her hand over his encouraging his movements.

He returned his attentions to her neck kissing her and nibbling playfully. He couldn't help but to smirk as she let out a soft moan.

He worked his fingers against her slowly winding her up. She rocked her hips as she became lost in the sensations he was giving her. Her eyes shut as she felt her legs begin to tremble. Her breathing was grew more and more erratic the longer he worked his fingers. She was so close but she struggled to hold back wanting to enjoy the feeling as long as possible.

He felt her begin to tighten around his fingers before she let out a loud noise somewhere between a squeak and a moan. He did his best to continue moving his fingers throughout her climax. He did finally pull his fingers away as her breathing began to calm, feeling prideful as he moved away from her neck and noticed the sated look on her face.

He knew that he wasn't going to able to wait much longer. He felt like he was about to burst. And feeling her tighten around his fingers and hearing her moans had made his member twitch and begin to throb in anticipation.

She opened her eyes as she reached out wrapping her arms around his waist. He pressed a kiss to her lips before he pulled away and looked into her dark eyes. He spoke up his voice growing husky. "Are you ready ?"

She nodded her head before she spoke. "You have something right ?"

He nodded as he reached over opening a drawer and locating what he needed. He ripped the package open before he prepared himself.

He pressed his lips to her as he pushed himself into her. They both let out heavy satisfied sighs against each others mouths.

He did his best to stay still knowing that she needed time to adjust to him. Even though the need to move was overwhelming. He pulled away from the kiss before he strained to speak. "I love you."

She smiled as she ran her hands down his back feeling a little at loss as to what to do with her hands. She finally settled them against the small of his back. "I love you too."

She rocked her hips encouraging him to move as he let out a soft groan. He rocked back against her trying to go slow even though he wanted nothing more than to lose control and let his body get lost in the pleasure.

She dug her nails into his back as he finally began to speed up his movements ever so slightly. She shifted her hips up a little allowing him to thrust even deeper.

They stayed like that for what seemed like an eternity rocking against each other so slowly. The only noise in the room was their heavy breathing along with the occasional soft moan.

She closed her eyes letting out a soft indistinguishable noise as she spoke. "oh god. You feel so..." She let out a moan before she continued her sentence. "good...so good."

He nodded his head unable to form words. He was so overwhelmed by her, she was so hot, and wet, and tight. So tight he could barely stand it.

He knew that he wasn't going to be able to last much longer if she kept making the noises she was making. He was relieved as he began to feel her tremble in his arms obviously just as close as him.

She let out a soft muffled sound as she locked her lips with his and shook in his arms hitting her climax. He thrusted in her a few more times his last thrust a little rough as he hit his as well.

He moved away from this kiss and buried his head against the pillow and her neck muffling his groans as he tried to continue to move against her as they came down from their high.

He collapsed on top of her the both of them so exhausted and completely satisfied, as he moved his head over kissing her neck a few more times. He smirked a little proud of himself as he noticed that she had developed a bit of a hickey along her neck.

She ran her hand up his back as they both tried to recover from the experience. He finally rolled off of her as he reached down removing the condom and tossing it into a trash bin beside the bed.

He reached out for her as she settled against him resting her head on his chest. He held her close as they laid in silence neither of them able to come up with the right words to describe what had just occurred between them.

She finally spoke up her voice tired. "That was so perfect sweetheart."

He smiled enjoying her new pet-name for him. This was only the second time she had called him that. "It was."

Elizabeth felt her eyes grow heavy before she drifted into a deep sleep. Crowley felt his own eyes shut before he managed to work out a sleepy happy sigh. "I love you."

Elizabeth awoke the next morning keeping her eyes shut as she reached out blindly looking for Crowley's sleeping form. She frowned as she hit the cold sheets.

She opened her eyes disappointed to find that she was in bed all alone. She sat up pulling the covers up covering her nude form as she studied the empty room.

She wasn't alone for long as Crowley entered the room wearing his boxers and a plain red t-shirt that he usually reserved for the gym.

She smiled as he noticed he was carrying two cups of coffee. He sat down in the bed beside her as he handed her a cup. "Here just like you like it loaded with milk and enough sugar to make a dentist cringe."

She took a sip of the hot coffee before she spoke ignoring his playful jab about how she preferred her coffee. "Good morning."

He leaned over pressing a kiss to her lips as he responded. "Good morning and may I say that this is probably the best good morning I've had in a while."

She didn't have time to respond as she heard her phone ring all the way from the bathroom. Crowley rolled his eyes obviously unhappy that their happy morning after was being interrupted.

He placed his coffee cup down on the bedside table as he got out of bed and made his way to the bathroom.

He returned handing her the cell phone as she gave him an apologetic look. She answered it letting out a tired sigh as she placed her coffee cup on the bedside table beside her. "Hello."

She heard Jo's cheery voice on the other end. "Hey. Good morning."

She rolled her eyes wondering how anyone could be this cheerful this early in the morning. It was inhuman to sound so awake at this hour.

She bit her bottom lip trying to focus on Jo's voice as Crowley crawled back into bed beside her and leaned over pressing his lips to her bare shoulder.

She began to lose focus on the phone as he worked his lips up towards her neck. She heard Jo's slightly annoyed voice. "Did you hear me ?"

She frowned trying to ignore just how good his lips felt against her skin. "Huh ?"

"I said my mom wants you to come to dinner tonight. You know bring Crowley over to meet her." Jo said annoyed that her cousin hadn't heard her the first time.

Elizabeth moved the phone away letting out a soft gasp as Crowley began to trail his hand underneath the covers and along her lower stomach and over to her hipbone. His hand was getting far too close to where it definitely did not need to be while she was on the phone.

She did her best to glare at him letting out an irritated shocked noise as he took the phone from her speaking up. "Hey Jo."

He pulled away as Elizabeth tried to take her phone back. He nodded his head as he spoke his voice far too cheerful. "Of course we'll come to dinner. That sounds great. Yes...yes. Tell your mum that we'll bring dessert...yeah pie if that's all right."

He nodded his head as he glanced over at Elizabeth a smirk developing on his face. "So I'm going to have to let you go. Your cousin is looking far too amazing for me to keep my hands off of her any longer."

She watched him smirk even more as he spoke again. "Yeah, yeah oh gross to you too. Teaches you to call early on a Saturday morning huh ?"

And with that he hung up the phone turning to look at his shocked girlfriend. She shook her head frowning at him. "Are you nuts ? Taking my phone from me like that. What if that had been my dad ?"

He shook his head. "I could hear your cousin's voice and besides I saw that it was her on your caller id."

She shook her head again feeling a tad bit embarrassed. "I cannot believe you just said that to her."

"It did get her off the phone." He pointed out pressing a kiss to her cheek as he laid her phone down on the bedside table.

"Yeah but that was...so bad." She said trying to hide her slight amusement but failing as she cracked a smile.

He smirked opening his arms and motioning for her to come over to him. "Yes yes I know I'm a bad boy. Now get over here and punish me."

She rolled her eyes as she leaned over locking lips with him her irritation about his little stunt with her phone disappearing from her mind.

She had a feeling that he wasn't going to let her out of this bed anytime soon. Not that she had a problem with that.
