I woke up not really remembering where I was. While I lay there with my eyes still closed I felt warm and safe. I could smell masculine smells and feel the hard body of a man beneath my fingers and my face. Splaying my fingers out I could tell this wasn't Chuck because this man was firmer than he was. I could hear his heartbeat, strong and steady, beneath my ear. My body scooted itself closer to the man without my even thinking about it. I felt his arm around me tighten to pull me closer and it was then that I decided to open my eyes.

He lay on his back, eyes closed in sleep and face inches from my own. I saw the stubble that had begun to grow back along his jaw and his brown lashes lay against his cheek. My savior and probably someone I could fall hard for if I let myself, Sam. The longer I looked at him the more beautiful I realized he was. Then I remembered the events from yesterday. I remembered how he had come to my rescue and how he fought for my freedom from the abusive relationship I had been in for far too long. As I lay there watching him, he began to stir. I closed my eyes so he wouldn't catch me looking at him. I tried to keep my breathing even and soft when I was pretty sure he was watching me.

After a few seconds I felt his fingers trailing up and down my back and I fought to not let my breath catch in my throat. Sam moved a little and then I felt the light touch of his lips on the top of my head. He quietly said, "I promise to protect you as long as you'll let me." He said it so softly that I barely even heard what he said. Still feigning sleep I let my hand trail slowly down from Sam's chest, over his stomach and to the top of his boxer briefs before I felt his hand grab my wrist and stop my descent. I let myself "wade up" at that moment. Looking up into his almost brown eyes innocently I said, "Oh I'm sorry. I must have been dreaming." Sam gave me a half smile, "No biggie. I just thought it was best to stop you."

We both felt a bit uncomfortable so I pushed myself up, "I'm going to use the restroom. Thank you for putting up with me last night. Do you need anything while I'm up?" Sam went to sit up and then grimaced. I could tell his shoulder was hurting him. He shook his head, "No I'm good." I put my hands on my hips and gave him my best "mom look", "No you're not. I'll get you a pain pill while I'm up. I'll be right back. You just lay back and rest." Sam finally agreed and I headed to the bathroom quickly. I checked myself in the mirror and brushed my teeth as fast as I could, ran a brush through my hair and then braided it into a messy braid and then ran to the kitchen to get a bottle of water and one of Sam's pain pills.

I carried the water and pill in to Sam's room after knocking softly. Sam took the pill and chased it with the water. "You should rest today Sam. I can call in and not work again today and just hang out here." Sam ran his hand through his hair, "I guess you're right." "I'll go cook some breakfast. You stay here and I'll bring it to you when it's ready." Sam scooted back down in the bed and I reached to pull the covers up. I then leaned down to kiss his forehead but before I could stand back up Sam reached for me. His good hand went behind my neck as he pulled my mouth down from his head to where his lips could capture mine. We kissed for several long seconds before he broke the kiss, "I'm not really hungry for breakfast right now."

A thrill shot through my body like nothing I had ever felt before as he pulled me back in for another kiss. His lips felt wonderful and his tongue probed, asking for permission to pass my lips. When I opened up to him he slid his tongue easily along mine and I tasted him, causing a warmth to pool in my lower region. Sam sat up then and threw the sheets back. I crawled into his lap with my knees on each side of his hips. His hurt arm was between us but that didn't stop us from getting really close. His good arm was wrapped around me with his hand splayed out against the small of my back, holding me where he wanted me. I wound one hand through his long hair and pulled gently for him to look up at me so I could have complete access to his mouth.

I felt him grow hard beneath me so I rocked my hips, moving my body against his. Sam moaned into my mouth causing me to grow wet with need. I broke from our kiss and breathed, "Sam." His mouth attacked my neck while it was thrown back and he started trying to push my shorts off of my hips. He was having trouble doing it one handed so I scooted off of his lap. There was no turning back now and boy did I for sure not want to. It was as if we had known each other forever instead of just having met two days ago. "Help me.", Sam said huskily after I had removed my own clothes. He had unstrapped the sling and was trying to get his own shirt off. I helped him remove it and then his boxers were next to be removed by me.

At the sight of his hardness in front of me I sucked in a breath. I had never been with someone as large as he was. I wondered for a few seconds if he would even fit. I was willing to find out though. I stopped and looked at Sam, he looked back at me and then I stated, "I'd feel better if you'd put that sling back on. We want you healed as quickly as possible and I can get a little frisky sometimes. I need the reminder." Sam gave me a beautiful smile and picked up the sling. I helped him get it back on before he reached to pull me back into his lap. I didn't slide all the way forward yet but did reach out and place my finger in the hollow just above his top lip. "You're beautiful. Did you know that?", I said to him before I leaned in and kissed him deeply.

"I want you Jade.", Sam breathed against my neck. Nodding I rose up on my knees above him and he reached with his good hand to line himself up with my opening. He slid his tip along my wetness before holding still and letting me descend slowly. I gasped as he stretched me to fit his size and my lashes fluttered. When I looked at Sam he was smiling, "You feel really good.", he said to me. "Probably not as good as you feel inside me." When I was fully impaled on Sam I began to rock against him. I was careful to not hold onto Sam's hurt shoulder but it was almost all I could do not to ride him harder than I should. I began to slide up and down his enormous length and he urged me on with one hand under my ass. It wasn't long before I felt myself exploding and my walls began to clench around Sam's hardness. He threw back his head and rose to meet me a few more times before he experienced his own release.

******************************

Sam held Jade close as she rested her head against his shoulder after they both experienced the earth shattering release from a few seconds ago. He guessed the work from their lovemaking had sped up the effects of the pain pill on him too because he suddenly felt as if he could sleep for hours. His lids felt heavy and his breathing was slowing. Jade looked down at Sam after raising her head and stated, "Are you as sleepy as I am?" Sam smiled at her, "I thought it was just because of my medicine." Jade shook her head at Sam, "I really think it's just from the amazing sex we just had. I'm not complaining about spending the day in bed with you if that's what you want."

Sam winked at Jade, "Why don't we do just that. I can wait on food. How about you?" Jade agreed and scooted out of Sam's lap. He lay back against the pillows and Jade snuggled in beside him again. "This is even nicer than when you came in last night.",he told her. "I honestly didn't come in here last night to get in your bed.", Jade answered him. "Well I'm glad you needed the comfort.", Sam told her.
