Chapter Nineteen: Touch

Then he ran. With great speed, he sprinted to the nearest elevator and descended downward. Garfield panted and gasped for air while the elevator went down. The woman that stood moments before him consumed his thoughts. Unknowingly, the man began to hyperventilate. He couldn't believe he was inches away from her face; only inches away from her lips. The image of disappointment on her face haunted his thoughts. He deeply cared for this woman, but he couldn't even get close to her out of his own fear.

Garfield turned to one of the walls of the elevator and punched the wall in fiery. With his strength, he created dents in the wall and slowly stopped. His fists ached from the force and he abruptly hit is head on the wall. Grinding his teeth, Garfield cursed in his mind.

How could I be so close, and mess up like that? Now she obviously knows I have feelings for her. How can I be so lame? Now what am I going to do?He thought. The elevator opening to the garage soon interrupted his thoughts. Garfield dragged his feet along the garage floor with his head hung low.

However, a deep voice in his head silenced his racing thoughts. What the hell do you think you're doing? You left that gorgeous woman on that roof with no clue what happened. She clearly has feelings for you, but you are too scared to go after her. You are a coward.

Garfield stopped walking and shook his head roughly. "I am not a coward" he spoke to himself grinding his teeth out of frustration.

"Yes you are." The voice bellowed, "You are a coward and you cannot deny it. If say you are not a coward, prove me wrong."

Garfield fell to the ground on his knees in frustration. His eyes were closed, teeth grinding, and head aching out of confusion, stress, and frustration. "I don't know what to do." He whispered to himself.

"You know what to do host."The voice echoed in his mind.

Suddenly his aches and frustrations disappeared. However, his anxiety remained. The man quickly stood up and ran towards the elevator. He pressed the button to the roof and headed towards his destination. Once the man opened the door to the roof, he searched for the woman he saw only moments ago. Yet, the woman he was looking for was nowhere to be found. The only remnants of her that remained in the atmosphere where a mix of jasmine, lavender, and the feeling of disappointment.

The man cursed to himself and ran towards the stairs of the building. He didn't even bother to consider taking the elevator but his only objective was to get to the thirteenth floor. After several flights of stairs, he finally reached his destination. With his heart pounding and heavy panting he stood in front of a door and knocked franticly on it. Within moments the door opened revealing a certain half-demon. She stared for seconds in confusion as the man panted for air in near the threshold.

"Garfield? What the hell are yo-" but the woman was cut off completing her sentence when the man in front of her crushed his lips on hers. He hastily cupped her cheeks and gently pulled her closer to him. Her eyes widened out of surprise and her heart began to race. She did not know what was happening and how it happened so fast. Rationally was racing through her mind, but the feeling of bliss, happiness, and passion overwhelmed her body. Overthrowing her rationally, her body gave in to the pleasure and wonderful sensations she was feeling. Her body no longer was tense and she closed her eyes in complete pleasure. She gave in to his spell and passionately returned the kiss. The woman wrapped her arms around the man's next and he took the initiative to snake his hands around her waist.

For moments they stood passionately kissing one another until Raven gently stepped towards the inside of her apartment suite and in the same motion moved the man she was kissing inside. The door closed automatically leaving the couple alone together in the quiet apartment. While kissing the woman in front of him, Garfield opened his eyes to look around the apartment suite. He noticed that it had not changed since his last encounter in the apartment. Quickly the woman touched his chin to direct his attention towards her. She released her lips from his and gave him a soft smile.

"Don't act as if you haven't been in my apartment before." She smirked.

Garfield's eyes widened. He wanted to deny her accusations although they were true. The look she gave him, he knew that whatever he said would have to pass her judgment since she was the one who could easily detect a lie. "I'm not gonna deny that, but how did you know?"

"Please Garfield; your smell was all over my apartment" she replied to his inquiry and inched towards his ear "I guess then I don't have to give you a tour of my living quarters since you already know where everything is. Including the bedroom."Raven said in a soft seductive voice.

With her last sentence echoing in his mind, it set him off. Garfield took the woman's lips with his and pressed himself closer to her. He could feel his pants becoming tighter and she could feel him become harder. In this passionate and heated kiss they began to head towards her bedroom. The couple stumbled through the living room nearly falling on the couch and knocking over a lamp. They wallowed throughout the hallway where Raven eagerly began to take the man's shirt off. Once she successfully got his shirt off, Raven began to rub her hands up and down his bare chest. Garfield, on the other hand, was enjoying the feeling of her soft cold hands on his chest. He soon began to rub and massage her right breast with her clothes still intact.

They continued stumbling throughout the apartment until they reached the woman's bedroom door. Before they were able to open the door, Raven pressed against it while he continued his assault on her breast. He began to slip his hand underneath her shirt and gently massage her breast within the confinement of her bra. The aroused woman raised her leg to rest on his waist, curling it around the man. His hand found her leg and fondled her inner thigh. Raven fingers traced from around his neck, moving around his hair gripping it.

Garfield picked up the woman while she wrapped her legs for support around his waist. She began to kiss and bite at his neck while he fumbled with the door handle. When he finally opened the door, he nearly fell with the woman straddling herself on his waist. Her room was filled with the scent of lavender and jasmine. Gently, he laid the aroused woman on her bed and hovered over her body giving her sweet tender kisses. Slowly he withdrew from the kiss and stared into the eyes of the woman that lay beneath him. Her hair was sprawled in the bed in an angelic manner and her eyes her half-lidded as she stared at the man above her. Garfield gave the woman a loving smile.

"I love you" He whispered to the woman he loved so dearly. Garfield could see a twinkle in her eyes and see how much joy and happiness through them. She smiled revealing her snow-white canines.

"I love you too." She replied and captured his lips once again.

They continued their assault on each other's mouth for minutes as Garfield began to touch and feel throughout the woman's physique body. Slowly, yet swiftly, Raven rolled herself from the bottom, and now lay on top of the man. He began to slowly take her shirt off and she helped him since it took him moments to strip her shirt off. The man began to rub and feel her cold soft skin that once lay trapped beneath her shirt. She began to kiss, lick, and bite on his neck while he began to unhook her black-laced bra. Unlike her shirt, he was able to strip it off without her assistance. He was amazed at how beautiful her supple breasts were and started to suck on her hardened nipples. She slightly moaned in pleasure lightly scratched her silk sheets. He alternated between the two plump breasts as the woman began to moan louder and louder.

Meanwhile he continued his assault on her breasts; she could feel the now growing hardened member of the man pressing against her inner thigh. Raven took her left hand and began to massage the outside of his jeans where she found his hardened member. Garfield moaned softly while sucking on her right breast. Soon, she unhooked his belt and placed her hand in the front on his jeans. He gasped after realization that her hand was rubbing up and down his member. He halted his assault on her breast and lay back on the bed with hands clasping the silk sheets. She merely smiled and began to take off his jeans to release the hardened member out of its confinement. Raven discarded his jeans only to find out he was going commando on this particular day. To her surprise, she found a large hardened member standing nearly straight.

She began to rub her hand up and down his shaft and he moaned out of complete pleasure. She was driving him crazy and he wanted and needed her so bad. Garfield began to take off her jeans since that was the only article of clothing that remained on her body. Slowly but surely he was able to strip her of her jeans and throw them across the room. The only problem he had was the black lacy thong she wore, but that could easily be discarded. Her body was exceptionally sexier than he pictured it since the closest interaction he had was months ago when he accidently stumbled in her office while she was changing. Beside the point, he loved her and her model-sculpted body. Soon, he lifted his fingers to toss away the last article of clothing she wore. Now, they were both completely naked with the woman on top of the man looking at each other's nude forms.

Without a moments noticed, Garfield began to rub the woman's breast and descended down to her lower vaginal lips. He began to rub and massage the inner flaps of her lower lips. Raven responded by moaning slightly louder than earlier. Feeling more aroused, Garfield slipped one of his fingers inside of her and she widened her eyes while gasping. He then thrust his finger in and out of her. Garfield even had the boldness to add two fingers to thrust in and out of her. She moaned and called his name in desperation. He quickly removed his fingers from her and positioned his hardened member to go inside.

Slowly, he adjusted himself to insert himself in her and she slowly positioned her body to go down on him. Quickly, he inserted himself inside her and a shriek of pain was heard from the woman. Raven winced and bit her lower lip to relieve the pain. Garfield sat up to comfort the woman during his penetration. One teardrop ran from her eye and down her cheek. Garfield gave her a reassuring kiss on the cheek and on the lips to help ease the pain. Soon he began to thrust himself slowly in and out of the woman. With each thrust, her pain seemed to disappear with it and soon she no longer felt the pain.

Raven then began to move herself so that she was riding him slowly. Garfield moaned in pleasure and urged the woman to go faster and deeper. She complied with his request and soon began to ram herself in and out of his membrane. Her breasts were bobbing up and down with every motion and louder moans escaped her lips. Soon those moans turned into cries of pleasure and passion. She continued to ride him for some time but Garfield quickly turned her over so that she was on bottom. She was covered in sweat and became wetter each time she took a breath.

He lowered his head down and kissed her passionately. He continued to kiss the woman and traced his lips from her cheek, to her jaw, down her neck, ending to her breasts. Again, he inserted himself in Raven and she squealed out of pure delight. He continued to thrust deep and hard inside of her. They continued to look into each other's eyes while sharing this moment together. Raven's right leg began to shake furiously and soon she curled her leg so that it was easier for him to penetrate. Garfield began to move faster and faster as Raven began to moan louder and call out his name. Raven felt like her climax was about to come and Garfield was feeling the same way. He continued to thrust himself in and out of her, when soon he pulled out and covered the woman's stomach in his own reproductive liquids. To Raven's surprise she came at the same time he pulled out feeling her own fluids dripping from her womanhood.

They continued to catch their breath after their sexual ordeal. This was a memorable experience for the two of them that the shared together on this starry night. Garfield rolled over and grabbed his shirt and wiped his fluids off of the woman's stomach. He tossed the shirt aside and grabbed the dark purple silk blanket and draped it over the two. He lay on his back while Raven lay on her side with her head lying on his chest. She was at ease listening to his heartbeat as he wrapped his arms around her for comfort. Somehow, she felt secure and that the world had stopped. There was nothing that could harm them as long as they were together. She felt safe in his arms. He softly kissed her forehead and held her closer to his naked body.

"I love you." He whispered.

She replied, "I love you too." Soon they drifted together into a peaceful slumber.
