It was Monday morning. The first day Kim was teaching the dancers from New York. Her usual alarm went off at 6 like clock work. "No way darling! Sleep a bit longer. It's a busy day between rehearsal and teaching. I know your nervous so curl back into my arms for another hour please." Adam was not happy about her alarm this morning. "Okay baby!" Kim turned off her alarm and curled back up into his waiting arms. "You need more rest." Adam argued slightly but stopped when he realized she was already asleep again. Adam kissed her forehead before falling back to sleep again holding her tight.
When he awoke next it was right before the alarm went off. He turned it off before it could wake Kim. He wanted to wake her naturally. Or more like he wanted to wake her sweetly. He hovered over her placing sweet, soft kisses all over face. He watched as her eyes began to flutter open. A sleepy smile taking over her face. "Morning darling. It's time to wake up." Adam whispered as he kissed right by her ear. "Morning." Kim moaned a little as she felt Adam hovering over her. "Apparently I need to stop or you won't be getting up today." Adam chuckled lightly. "No please don't stop! You are making me feel better and is a beautiful distraction." Kim whined pulling his body closer to hers. "Do you have time this morning? I don't want you to be late?" Adam asked unsure of what to do. He knew what he wanted, always but he needed to be sure.
"One round won't hurt I promise. It will help with my nerves. Please baby!" Kim begged biting her lower lip knowing he loved it. "Ugh! You know I can't resist you. Especially when you bite your lip like that. Fine! What do you want? Tell me what's gonna make you feel the best this morning?" Adam asked knowing from the glint in her eyes she had a good idea of what she wanted. "Baby! You know exactly what I want. I need a sweet, slow release. While I love rough and hard I can't before work." Kim smiled up at him knowing she won. "Okay your wish is granted." Adam stood off the bed to remove his clothes and climbed back on to the bed. He slowly started to kiss his way down her neck. He tugged on the hem of her shirt. She sat up to allow him to remove the shirt. Once it was removed he helped her to lay back down.
As she settled into a comfy space again he continued the quest of kissing her body. He slowly kissed over chest. He could feel her body humming with excitement. The soft moans spurring him to move to the places that made her body come alive. He started to kiss you left breast first, his right hand massaging her right breast. Kim's back arched as Adams mouth opened to take her nipple into his mouth. He sucked softly hearing her moaning in pleasure. "Darling relax her body a bit." Adam helped her lower back on to the bed. "Please I need you baby!" Kim begged. "I got you darling!" Adam moved to give her what she wanted and needed. He moved her legs wider and settled in between. Running his erection up and down across her core collecting some juices before he entered her.
Kim moaned loudly in relief the pleasure washing over her. At the same point Adam groaned at the feeling of being connected again. It hadn't been long but it always felt like home. He slowly moved in and out of her. Thrusting never picked up in speed or power. He continued to love her throughly till her body was spent and fully relaxed. When they came together it had been a beautiful moment filled with pure love and contentment. "Thank you baby! That was exactly what I needed." Kim pulled Adam into her arms kissing him lovingly. "You are so very welcome. I'm happy to please you. Taking away your stress makes me happy. So let's get you in the shower and clean you up for your day." Adam helped to into his arms carrying her into the bathroom. Starting the shower before returning to her arms.
She was sitting on the countertop watching his every move. When he returned to her arms. She wrapped her arms around his neck pulling him closer. Crashing her lips against his. She wrapped her legs around his waist trapping him against her core. "Darling. What are you doing?" Adam asked knowing the answer already. "Maybe one more?" Kim asked. "Darling! You know I want that but we are running out of time. I want to wash you sweetly and then feed you breakfast before we have to leave." Adam groaned knowing he really wanted to be buried deep inside her again. "Okay baby!" Kim whined and pouted. He lifted her up kissing her pout away before bringing her into the shower. He did just as promised washing every inch of her body. Spending special attention to her core. After she was clean she stepped out to start getting ready as Adam washed himself. As he left the bathroom he saw her dressed and packing her duffel bag for today.
"Are you all ready for today?" Adam asked watching her think as she packed. "Um yeah. Just thinking what extra stuff I should bring. I'm not sure if they are preparing properly before they dance. I want to teach them so extra tips to help them. Tips I've learned along the way. Just protecting your toes better to prevent bleeding is huge. You can't dance well if you aren't properly prepared. So that's how I want to start the day with them." Kim explained holding out the extra items. "Completely correct! Well let's get you fed! Because you can't be at your best without proper nutrition." Adam kissed her head as he walked past to cook her a quick breakfast. Just a quick turkey bacon, yogurt and some fruit. He knew she wouldn't want to many carbs before rehearsal.
"Thank you! This whole morning has been special. I'm truly thankful for how you have been treating me this morning. I want to make a difference with these students and I'm nervous. But your love is getting me through this." Kim squeezed his hand as they ate. This was completely new for both of them but they were enjoying the moment. "I'm here for you always. Just like you always support me." Adam squeezes her hand back. They finished breakfast in silence. They cleaned up the dishes together before they headed out. "You know I think this is the first time I've seen you dress like a teacher in proper attire. You normally do your own thing. It's adorable!" Adam watched her blush. "Well I don't have to dress in proper attire daily but today I want to do things right. Teach properly, dress properly. I kind of don't like it." Kim shrugged as they stepped onto the elevator.
As they left the building hand in hand they had their last moment of peace before parting. "Do good! Teach well. Practice hard! I will see you tonight. I love you so much! Only you!" Adam held her closer. "You be safe! No getting shot today! And I love you so very much too! My only one!" Kim smiled kissing him before getting in her car to leave. Once she was in Adam got in his car to leave as well. As they headed in opposite directions the nerves in Kim returned and Adam just tried to not worry about his girl. He was afraid she was stretching herself too thin once again. Next weekend he planned to take her away for a couple of days. They couldn't go far but they needed it. More she needed it.
The more he thought about it the more he knew it was the right idea. He just needed to find the perfect place to take her. As soon as he was at his desk he started to research a place to take her that was close but relaxing and hopefully fun. He wanted to give her new experiences that were fun and child like. He would use every weekend for the rest of his life making her happy. Allowing her to be the child she never not to be. That forced her to take on too much to survive. May was an off month but she still had to work one week in Paris. He was determined to make the most of that month for her to relax as much as possible. He wish he had more vacation time to take her away more often.
"Yo Ruz! Whatcha looking at?" Kevin asked watching Adam looking so intently at his computer. "Oh um I'm just looking at some place to take Kim this weekend. She's spreading herself too thin and I want to take her away for a couple days. After she finishes teaching on Friday I want to leave for the weekend with her. So I'm just looking for somewhere close. Maybe somewhere she hasn't been before. Just started thinking about it today on my way in." Adam shrugged a bit knowing it sounded a bit cheesy coming from him. "That sounds nice man! I'm sure she would appreciate that a lot!" Kevin patted him on the back before heading to his own desk. "Yeah I know she would. I just want to find the right place. With fun things to do, relaxation. But I want her to have a weekend all about her." Adam mentioned as he still looked at his screen.
"That's a nice idea Adam. If you need any help let me know." Erin offered knowing this was out of his comfort zone. "Thanks Linds! I appreciate it." Adam nodded towards her before he started searching again. With Kim she headed to the studio she and Stephen used on a daily basis. It was further back which allowed for less interruptions. They both liked that so they could bang out there work and head home to rest. They were a good team and they worked hard together. They also trusted each other completely. Which was a necessity in this job. As she stepped into the studio she noticed Steven was already there. "Hey are you ready for this?" Kim asked feeling bad this was sprung on him. "Hey it's all good. This is a good thing you are doing. As for me, they are just watching so I'm not worried about it. We are on display daily. Now I think our company is here." Steven pointed towards the door when the group walked in.
"Good morning! Welcome to the Chicago Ballet! I'm Kimberly and this is my partner Steven. During the days you will be watching our practices. I want you watching our movements, the stances we take, the way we carry ourselves. You are here to learn. We will be going through proper stretches and warm ups with you. I also want to go over how to properly care and cover your feet before you put your shoes on. We need to start with the proper first steps so we can prevent injury. So let's get this started!" Kim spoke as she shook hands with each member of the visiting dance company. She had known before hand that they were not particularly fit and were in need of a diet overhaul but that wasn't her concern. Hers was clearly just making them better and stronger dancers.
"Okay so let's all sit and start getting our shoes on so we can stretch. The items in front of me are extra items that will help you prevent damaging your toes. Prevent bleeding and give a little extra cushion. If you don't use these please take some to try today and see what a difference it makes." Kim went through her routine allowing the students to watch her and try her items. "Now that we are all set let's get warmed up." Kim did her usual stretch routine and followed up a couple of spins to make sure her shoes were properly placed and comfortable. It took around 30 minutes before they started the actual rehearsals.
Kim and Steven went through the entire first half of their routine before taking a small break. It gave them an opportunity to use the restrooms and grab a quick lunch. They took the students down to the schools cafeteria to get lunch. Kim offered to pay for the lunches for the group and allowed them to pick whatever they wanted. Kim watched as they chose heavier foods and unhealthy options. Kim, Steven and Kim's friend Jen all ate healthy options. The three professionals all looked at each other before deciding who would speak. "Okay so guys I think this is a really good time to discuss healthier eating. No one here wants you all to be stick figures but you can't keep eating like this. It's beyond unhealthy. And all the carbs will slow down your performance. As a team we need to focus on proper diet and exercise routine. We are here to learn and make changes. So they start today. Tonight we will restart on the basics." Jen was forceful and strong but she had a point. They had to see that.
"So no chips, burgers, fries, pizza?" A student asked. "Only occasionally. Indulging is fine once in awhile but not everyday. And you all make it an everyday thing. And it's not okay. So changes need to happen. Not just to make your preform better but to make you all healthier. You all deserve this! You were done a disservice by your previous school who didn't care to help you before hand. But I do care! And I want to help you all. Just let me help you." Kim explained strongly hoping to get through to them. Hopefully they took the help and used it to their advantage.
They headed back to the studio to finish rehearsal. As the second half started the students all looked bloated and uncomfortable. While Kim and Steven were just fine. They continued dancing showing the students exactly why they are paid performers. Why they are stars. While she danced she had no idea across town Adam was still in deep thought about surprising Kim with a trip. "Ruz? What about just taking her to a lake front cabin on Lake Michigan. It would be close by and relaxing for sure." Jay offered a suggestion knowing Adam wasn't sure what to do. "I like that idea. I really didn't want to have to fly. It takes too much time wasted with airports. So this is definitely something I look at better." Adam got to work right away trying to find something cozy and close to the water. He knew Kim spent lots of time by the water growing up before she was basically sent away.
"Oh look at this place. It's bigger than we need but it's a good price and it's updated. Kim would love it. Guys come look at it." Adam showed the team the pictures and waited for an opinion from them. Once the last photo was seen the group agreed it was a good find. Adam booked it right away. They could get there late Friday and leave late Sunday since it was the off season and the place wasn't rented before hand. He couldn't wait to get her away from all this. They really needed this time together to make memories together. He just couldn't wait to tell her now. He also decided on another surprise for her. More of a gift for her to play with. Would he like to play together of course but that would be her decision.
The team was released at 4 since they had no cases for the day. Adam was thrilled as he headed home to make a healthy dinner for the group. He knew Kim would need a meal and that she would want it to be healthy. Adam decided to stop at the store to pick up groceries to have enough to feed the whole group. Adam was cleaning up the kitchen as he cooked knowing Kim hated a mess. Especially when guests came over. He started the dish washer just as she was coming through the door. "Hey Darling! How was your day?" Adam asked as he saw her crossing the threshold. "It was a very good day. Adam these are the students that will be training here all week." Kim introduced them to Adam. He was polite and shook hands with them all. "Great to meet you all. I made dinner for you all. Chicken and roasted veggies. We should eat while it's still hot." Adam placed the food at the table and put out a pitcher of iced water for the group to drink.
"Thank you for cooking baby! It's looks wonderful." Kim waited till the group sat before she sat to start enjoying dinner. "This is great Adam. Thank you for cooking." Jen spoke as she dug into the meal. "You're welcome. I don't normally cook but wanted to take something off Kim's plate this week. And it worked out since we didn't get called to a crime scene today." Adam was happy to see Kim relaxed and eating. Normally when she's stressed she doesn't eat so this was a good thing to see. "How many days a week do you two work out?" A student asked. "Um well I work out 7 days a week and Adam works out 5 days a week." Kim replied. "Really? Why?" A different student asked. "Well we both need to keep up strength and endurance for our jobs. Its also a great stress relief and prevent depression. Just me it's a much needed activity in our lives." Adam answers. "How often do you students work out?" Kim asked wondering but knew the answer. They all came out with never or almost never answers.
"Well let me tell you. You all need to start working out, now! It will help tremendously with you performance quality and your over all health. Your stamina will be better too. I get it's not always fun but you can change it up. Try new things. Pilates, yoga, cardio, weights, running, swimming, boxing, tons of different options. You will thank me later! But you all need to step up your game. Between diet and exercise you guys will all be able to go further in your careers. After dinner we will start fixing what your other teachers failed at. You guys deserve a second chance at this. So let's get at it." Kim explained. "You guys should also be working on your steps at home and practicing when you are at home. I literally practice 7 days a week besides working out and redial rehearsal. I have one more question I'm very curious about. How long have you been using your current pointe shoes?" Kim asked knowing she probably would like the answer.
"A month." One student commented before the rest agreed. "So that tells me you guys definitely aren't practicing enough. I go through 3 to 4 pairs a week. Again you all need to step it up." Kim commented watching their eyes bug out. Adam chuckled lightly as he got up to clear the table. He cleans up the table as Kim moves the students into the studio. "Wow you have your own studio?" Kim heard the students mumble. "Yes I do. And I have plans to have a whole dance studio across the main hall when I retire. And you guys can have this too. Hard work, determination, practice will help you get these things too. So let's get our shoes on and start our warms ups." Kim showed the students where the could set up to work. "Okay so to start Jen will ask you to do steps and I will go around and help adjust your positions to align better. You find the steps are easier once you are in proper form. So let's get in position." Kim explained and watched as they lined up around the room.
After the kitchen was cleaned up Adam sat to watch the hockey game. He loved hockey so this was a perfect chance for him to watch it while supporting Kim. He was engrossed in the game ignoring the messages from his father. It wasn't worth answering when Adam couldn't afford to bail him out. And even if he could he's not sure he would. He's done it before and nothing changes. He couldn't do it anymore. He however answered the message from Kevin letting him know he was staying in and that he was more than welcome to come over to hang out. But he wasn't leaving so he could support Kim. He was happy to see Kevin, Jay and Erin would be coming over to hang out while Kim taught.
Kim moved around her studio helping each student. She spent time with each student. Helping them correct bad form brought on from years of poor teaching. Thousands of companies around the country and they aren't all good. It's truly sad to see. She wanted better for them so she made sure to help them all. During each step she spoke to each one guiding them to be better and stronger. She lost track of time as they moved and worked. Adam was happy when his friends arrived. "Hey guys! Come on in. Help yourself to anything in the fridge." Adam greeted them. "Well thanks for having us. Do we need to keep it down? We don't want to interrupt Kim." Erin asked grabbing a drink. "Nope the studio is sound proof. Actually the apartment is sound proof. She built it that way so the neighbors below wouldn't complain about the noises when she's dancing." Adam explained as they sat around the living room.
"Alright it's been an hour. Let's take a small break. Bathroom down the hall, waters are in here with towels to dry off some." Kim let the students exit the room. She heard them grumble about being tired and sore already. Kim and Jen followed behind them chuckling. "Hey guys! Thanks for keeping Adam company tonight." Kim hugged them all before grabbing a water. "No problem. Thanks for the drinks and snacks!" Jay answered as they laughed. "How's it going?" They all wanted to know. "Well they are tired and sore already but we aren't done yet. It's gonna be a long week." Kim laughed heading back inside her studio waiting for her students to return. They all heard the students talking about the brutal work out and the apparent man candy in the living room. It was quiet amusing actually. "No man candy here is available!" Erin spoke in a stern tone. The students ticked and ran back into the studio.
"Well that was funny! And amusing! Kim's got to be kicking their asses in there. I doubt they will be able to walk later." Kevin laughs looking over towards the door. "Oh they will be struggling later. I promise you they will be cursing Kim's name later!" Adam laughed hard knowing how hard she works when she's alone. "Well round two just started to let's pray for them!" Jay laughed wishing he was inside the room. "Oh yeah! They need it!" Erin laughed before turning her attention back to the tv. "Alright let's get back at it! I know you are all tired and sore but this is how you should be working out everyday! Let do it!" Kim cheered them on as they continued to get back into place. The groans heard around the room made Kim smile wide. "Your groans spur me on! I'm not stopping and neither are you!" Kim yelled as they worked.
Another hour of steps before Km decided to end the night. They literally couldn't turn properly anymore. They were exhausted from the amount of work they had been put through. Adam and his friends watched as the students walked outside the studio towards the door. "Thank you for all your hard work tonight. I will see you in the morning. Sleep well!" Kim smiled as they left. Once the door was shut she busted out laughing. "God they are so out of shape! That was insane!" Kim plopped down in Adams lap. "They looked beat! My god! You would think you worked them all day!" Jay laughed. "Oh yeah! I did a full 8 hour rehearsal with Steven. Then came here to teach them for two hours! And I'm tired but I could still go. That was beyond sad! Especially considering a performance is 3 hours. Wow!" Kim was just shocked by their lack of stamina.
"Well I'm proud of you but you need sleep. And I'm sure you are ready to be out of this perfect little dancer outfit." Adam smirked. "Yeah yeah! I'm going to shower and then throwing this in the wash. If you guys are gone before I get back, it's been good seeing you all. And I hope we can all hang out again soon." Kim hug them before leaving the room. Adam watched her leave. "You want to go with her Ruz?" Erin asked laughing a bit at him. "Um no. She needs to relax for a bit. By herself. I want her to sleep tonight and if I go in there it won't happen anytime soon." Adam laughed blushing slightly. "Well I think we already knew you two had a very active sex life but that just proved it." Kevin laughed as Adam turned bright red before a smug smile took over. "Okay that's our cue to leave. See you tomorrow! Thanks for a fun night!" Jay stated as he got up and ready to leave.
Adam walked them all to the door. Saying goodbye and watching them get on the elevator before locking the door behind them. As he walked to the bedroom he found Kim's clothes on the floor and the shower still running. He took her clothes to the washer to soak over night. It wasn't enough to run and it was late. He wouldn't get them in the dryer before falling asleep and he knew she would freak about them being left in the washer wet all night. When he returned he saw her on the bed half asleep already. "I was waiting for you before I let myself sleep." Kim smiled at him. "Perfect let me get in so you can curl up and sleep." Adam striped down to his boxers and crawled into bed. Allowing Kim to curl into his arms. Before he even spoke he heard her breaths even out. She was passed out and he was thrilled.
"Good night darling! I love you! Only you!"
