They walked slowly into his apartment hands held firmly. There was no talking, no questions. They were past that. Elizabeth wasn't nervous. She wanted this moment with him. She wanted him. She crossed the room looking around. He stayed at the door just watching her. She was so beautiful. He could watch her all night. Her long chestnut hair was loose, curling down her back. The high heels she was wearing only accentuated her shapely legs and curving backside. She slowly took of her coat laying it gently down on the sofa. She turned to face him. They stood ten feet apart. He took her in. Her smooth porcelain skin was glowing. A curl had fallen across her cheek and he wanted to brush it away. His fingers actually itched with the desire to touch her. His eyes traveled the length of her; her creamy soft shoulders, the fullness of her breasts, the small indent of her waist, her legs. His eyes traveled back to her beautiful face, the face that haunted his dreams while he was away. Her blue eyes glowed with passion and something more.

They stood apart neither able to move. She was looking at him as intently as he was watching her. The look in his eyes took her breath away. The uncertainty was gone. She knew what she wanted and so did he. She took everything about him in. He took a step. One step and that was all they needed they came together but stopped just shy of actually touching. He reached out his hand and finally brushed the curl away from her cheek. He watched his hand as it traced down her neck gently, like he was memorizing her shape. His fingers crossed down to her collar-bone and softly over her shoulder, down to where her hand fluttered by her side and back up one finger tracing. He was driving her crazy. He slowly agonizingly slowly reached the fullness of her breast. She was watching him. He was watching his hand. It was intoxicating. Her breath caught in her throat as he gently caressed her. She wished she wasn't wearing her dress. His hand trailed down to her waist and curved around behind to cup her bottom gently. His other hand curled into her hair. He pulled her inexorably to him.

She looked deeply into his eyes. Her breath held, as though she were searching for something. Slowly ever so slowly he eased closer. Their lips were a breath apart when he finally closed the space between them. The kiss was soft, searching. He delicately traced the seam of her lips with his tongue seeking entrance. She opened for him and he felt her own searching out his. It was the most erotic kiss of her life. Their breathing quickened as the kiss deepened. He pulled back and looked into her eyes asking the question without words. She kissed him in answer. He swept her up in his arms and carried her to the bedroom setting her down just inside the door. He moved to the stereo and turned on the play list that had been playing before he had left the apartment. It was a collection of songs that made him think of her. He eased his coat of his shoulders as he crossed to her. She immediately went to work on his tie as he touched everywhere he could reach.

He picked her up and crossed the room to the bed. He gently set her down. He needed to slow this down he wanted this to last. She slowly undid the buttons on his shirt, spreading it so she could run her hands around his waist. He leaned down and kissed her neck. He pressed his open mouth to the pulse that beat erratically there. She slid his shirt off of his shoulders and laid her lips against his chest. His breath caught in his throat. She was so gentle with her touch it was like butterfly kisses. Being in her arms was like coming home. He gently reached out for her jaw and lifted her face. He tenderly kissed her lips before turning her slowly in his arms. He slid her hair out of the way and laid a trail of kisses across her nape. He wrapped his arms around her from behind. She pressed back into him. She was driving him crazy. He was hard as a rock and the feel of her soft bottom pressing against him made it almost impossible to think. He reached for the zipper of her dress and slowly slid it down his fingers brushing against her spine the whole way down. Her dress pooled around her feet and she kicked it away. He ran his hands down her body and turned her back in his arms. Their kisses grew more impassioned and she reached for his belt but her hands were shaking he reached down to help her. Together they sank down on the bed. He made sure to keep his weight off of her not wanting to crush her. He kissed his way down her neck. He undid the front clasp of her bra and helped her off with it. He returned to her. She gasped his name as he teased the her breast blowing gently on it before licking the tip he used his hands, teeth and tongue to worship her body. Their breathing grew labored as their passion grew. He kissed his way down to her navel loving the little indent. He moved lower removing her panties and she groaned in response as he did magical things to her. He took her to the peak over and over again. Always pulling back right as she was about to fall. He used his mouth and hands to torment her. She was gasping and calling out his name when he finally let the first wave of her orgasm crash over her it was like the tide beating against the shore. It was never-ending. Every inch of her was tingling. She was vibrating with need. He slid up her body while shedding the last barrier between them. He reached over to the nightstand and protected them both. He settled against her. And kissed her gently. He looked deep into her eyes loving how expressive they were.

"AJ" She breathed his name.

He entered her slowly. It had been a long time for both of them. AJ was afraid just the feel of her would cause him to lose it. He pressed his forehead to hers as he tried to get control back over his body. Elizabeth was the one woman for him. He knew that. He also knew that he loved her but he knew she wasn't ready to hear it yet. So he bit his lips and pushed deeper into her. Their lips met again and again. His thrusts were gentle at first but grew stronger and faster. Elizabeth pulled up her knees to take him deeper and he groaned in response. It was going to be a close thing. He felt her shatter around him and that was all it took. He came calling out her name. He buried his face in her hair.

When their breathing returned to normal he rolled to his back bringing her with him. He tucked her into his side her leg thrown over his. He trailed his fingers through her hair. She pressed kisses to his chest beneath her cheek. She was so glad that AJ had walked out of the Haunted Star. They could be together without any ghosts between them. She decided that Lucky was her past. AJ was her future.
