Silence returned to the room as Steve and Kate settled down to sleep. Kate turned on to her side facing Steve. "Thank you," she said in to the dark room lit only by the moonlight as they had left the curtains undrawn. "The evening turned out a lot better than I thought it would," she continued. "I'm glad I decided to go out. Better than drowning my sorrows in red wine all alone,".

"I'm glad you came out as well," Steve agreed.

He didn't know why he did what he did next, maybe it was the alcohol, but he scooted a little closer to Kate and gave her a kiss. Nothing too sensual, just lips to lips. Hers were soft and full he thought, and if he wasn't imagining it, were responding to his touch. He knew he had promised that he wouldn't try anything, but it had just felt like the right thought g to do.

He pulled back wondering what was going to happen next. A slap to his cheek or the green light to take things further? He took her dazed smile as the latter and started kissing her again, this time deepening the kiss.

What are you doing? Kate thought to herself as she felt Steve's tongue enter her mouth. This is a bad idea, her conscience kept going. A really bad idea. You are drunk. You are so going to regret this in the morning.

It's only a kiss, another voice said. It won't cause too much harm. It's a nice way to end the day.

He's actually really rather good at this, another voice said and Kate couldn't help but give a little moan as Steve persisted.

Hearing Kate moan, Steve felt encouraged to move on. He brought a hand to her chest and started palming one breast through her T-shirt. He gently squeezed the soft flesh in his hand and soon felt a hardened nipple against his palm. He rubbed his thumb over it making it tauter.

This is definitely, definitely the most stupid thing you've done in a while, Kate's inner voice kept on. Probably should think about stopping soon, it told her, before you find yourself in trouble.

Really should put a stop to this, it prompted as Steve's hands now went under her T-shirt and started stroking the skin of her abdomen and rib cage before finding her breasts again.

Kate ignored the voices telling her to slow things down and soon found herself raising her arms above her head to allow Steve to remove her t-shirt altogether.

Steve gazed at the beautiful sight of Kate topless before him before his head lowered to one breast and gave it a gentle nip before he began suckling. His tongue flicked one nipple and rolled it around before he tugged at it gently again.

Fuck that feels good, Kate thought. It had been a while since she'd received such attention from the opposite sex. Her hands went to Steve's head to keep him in place as she felt her arousal start to pool between her legs.

Not wanting one breast to be left out, Steve changed sides and began paying homage to it. He was rock hard by now and needed to know if Kate felt similarly turned on. As he continued to suckle, the fingers of one hand delved under her underwear and between her legs. She was definitely as aroused as he was by the feel of it.

If you don't want to end up doing something incredibly stupid put a stop to this now! A voice screamed in Kate's head. The alcohol and her arousal made her ignore it.

One of Steve's fingers penetrated her before gathering some of her arousal and spreading it around her entrance. She could feel his erection prodding her in the thigh and she reached down and in to his underwear to touch him. He was rock hard in her hand. Moving towards his tip she found him leaking and rubbed some of his pre-cum around the mushroom shaped head.

Steve stopped suckling at her breast and raised his head to enjoy Kate's ministrations. He wasn't going to last much longer with her touching him like this.

He removed his finger from her core and began to gently ease her knickers down. Kate found herself tilting her hips to aid him in removing the last of her clothing.

Are you fucking insane? Her inner voice said. This is utter madness. Don't be an idiot!

Kate reached down and circled Steve's wrist, halting his movement. Steve looked at Kate, worried he had misread her signals.

"Have you got a condom?" Kate asked. If she was going to have sex then she was going to be safe.

"Err, yeah," Steve replied. "You want me to use one?".

"I'm not on anything," Kate explained.

"Probably best then," he agreed. He rolled away from Kate and reached for his jeans on the floor. In one back pocket was his wallet and inside there was a foil packet. He took it, ripped the packet open and hurriedly sheathed himself in the silver moonlight as Kate watched on. "OK?" He asked Kate expectantly, hoping she wasn't getting cold feet.

Kate found herself nodding and Steve was soon kissing her again. This time he also moved to rest on top of her and Kate was spreading her legs to cradle him in her thighs.

Kate felt him tease her entrance a few times before he finally penetrated her. She couldn't help the groan that escaped her lips as he did so.

Steve stopped kissing Kate and stilled his hips. "You ok?" he checked.

"Yeah," Kate replied a little unconvincingly.

Steve continued pressing in to Kate, only this time slowly and under his watchful eye in case he caused any more discomfort. "You're so tight," he informed her, aware she was gripping him more than he was used to.

"Sorry," Kate apologised. "I haven't done this a lot," she explained.

Steve stopped completely. "You're not a-," he started to ask. He would be a lot more gentle if this was her first time.

"No," Kate interrupted. She wasn't a virgin. She just hadn't had much sex.

"So what's your body count then?" He enquired.

Kate giggled at the phrase. "Two," she revealed, a little shyly. She knew it wasn't that much compared to her friends, but she had her reasons. She'd grown up with her mum having a string of one night stands and feeling cheap and worthless the next morning. Kate had vowed to herself that she would never do the same. She deserved better and therefore only went to bed with someone she was in a relationship with. "You're number three,".

"Wow," said Steve, feeling very embarrassed about his number of conquests.

"I was very studious at Ryton," Kate continued. "Sex wasn't as important as passing my exams,".

"I guess its my job as lucky number three to make you change your mind," Steve flirted as he resumed pushing in to Kate. He was determined to show her a good time and saw it as a bit of a challenge.

"What's your number?" Kate asked.

"A bit more than three," Steve said, not wanting to give her the exact number, "but in the last year only one," he added, hoping to sound more virtuous.

Eventually Steve was fully inside Kate. "Relax," Steve instructed after a few false starts and awkward bumping and grinding against each other that wasn't particularly enjoyable. "Just do what comes instinctually,".

With a bit of practise, Steve was soon pumping confidently in and out of Kate in long smooth strokes as Kate's feet pushed down on to the mattress as her hips rose up to meet Steve's as she mirrored his movements.

Kate felt the familiar tightenings of an orgasm beginning to build as Steve picked up the pace. She could feel his back muscles rippling under her fingers as she clung on as her peak grew ever closer.

"Oh!" she moaned as she reached the summit as she felt her inner muscles fluttering around Steve's length. She heard him grunt soon after as he reached his climax before he collapsed on top of her, completely spent.

"Did I succeed?" Steve mumbled against her sweaty skin when he could talk. It had been a rather enjoyable experience for him as well, much more so than he had expected.

"Yeah," Kate replied. In truth it had been her first orgasm experienced by penetration and had been amazing.

Reaching for the base of the condom, Steve withdrew from Kate's body and rolled over to deposit the used contraceptive in a tissue. Kate saw a few scratch marks on his back that she must have inflicted on him during the height of her passion and felt bad. She reached out to stroke one particularly sore looking one that had drawn blood. "Sorry," she apologised. "Never done that before,".

"Soon heal," Steve said as he rolled back and gathered Kate up to his body. She was soon fast asleep beside him and it wasn't long before he followed Kate in to dreamland.
