Exultation (18+)

Chapter Seventeen

Lahni

It was torture feeling like the next bad thing was just around the corner.
Eric was driving himself up a wall and I could see it, he was frustrated.
He was blaming himself for Andrew's ability to surpass the security he put in place. There was no point in calling the cops they couldn't do anything.
All we could do was report trespassing but we had no hard proof it was him, or he was even there. All we could prove was that someone was intruding on the property. I've had a restraining order on him since he was released from prison, but that doesn't help unless we can prove it's him or catch him in my vicinity. He was being calculated this time around, not sloppily violent, he had obviously learned some things in the last four years, one of them being he didn't want to go back to prison.
He wasn't showing his ass, not this time, he was covering his tracks.
It almost felt like this whole thing wasn't him, Andrew was never the slow-torture kind of guy. He was someone who wanted his revenge right then and there if you crossed him. This was very new, and I couldn't predict his next moves anymore.

"Let's get out of here first while we've been cooped up" I suggest to Eric. He looks down as runs his hand through his ruffled hair and lets a sigh of frustration out at the work he's been trying to get done to no avail.

"You're right, chasing myself in circles in here isn't going to help, let's go" He flashes me a smile and retrieves his coat from the rack it's hanging on. We walk to the garage and slide in his car, he pushes the button, and the garage door lifts. The sunlight gently streamed through the windshield as we backed up, warming the car with its soft glow. We decided to eat at a cute diner I found on Google Maps. It was a vintage place still stuck in the 50s with beautiful pastel colors dribbling all over the place. We parked and walked to the door, the server greeted us and sat us at a booth. The restaurant was alive with chatter, the clinking of cutlery provided a comforting background noise, a welcome distraction from the troubles that had been weighing on us. The server comes back to our table and we order our drinks.
Flicking through the cute plastic menu my eyes land on waffles, scrambled eggs, bacon, and toast.
I immediately knew what I was having. Eric had settled for pancakes, hash browns, sunny-side-up eggs, and toast. We ordered and awaited our food. I gazed out the window and basked in the beauty that was the bustling streets, the lights glimmering and everyone wrapped up in their bubbles as they walked briskly. It had been a long time since I was able to just sit down somewhere in the city and admire it, without it being for work or an errand.

After our food comes we eat and then move on to festivities, we wander through the busy streets of the city, exploring quirky shops and admiring street art. I couldn't help but laugh at Eric's attempts to haggle with a street vendor over a handmade necklace, his earnest expression causing my heart to swell with affection. In the end, he got the necklace. He made me lift my hair as he placed it around my neck, I smiled brightly and took his hand as we continued our adventure.

As we strolled hand in hand through the city, we found ourselves caught up in the vibrant energy of the very lively streets, the sights, and sounds of urban life serving as a reprieve from our worries.

We stumbled upon a small park tucked away in a quiet corner of the city, the gentle rustle of leaves and the chirping of birds providing a peaceful backdrop to my thoughts.
I ran to the swings not missing a beat, I heard Eric chuckle behind me.
I got on and smiled devilishly at him as I started to swing back and forth until my swing damn near did a wrap-around on the bar that was holding it. Eric watched me with a smile on his face, which too soon turned into fright as I jumped off the swing and hurdled myself towards him, we both fell to the ground with a thud.
I erupted in laughter at the wood chips now scattered in his hair. He scowled but it didn't hold long before he flopped himself beside me and was laughing too. My lungs were burning from how hard I was laughing, I was left breathless. The sky had started to dim and the sun set, pretty stars scattered just barely able to be seen by the naked eye amongst the bright hues of orange and pink.

"Thank you for today," I said, turning to Eric with a grateful smile.
"I needed this, to just be in the moment and forget about everything else."

Eric squeezed my hand, his eyes filled with warmth and understanding.
"This was all you" he replied with a gentle smile. "We'll get through all this, Lahni, together"

As the sun began to rapidly dip below the horizon, the glow that once shined upon the park dissipated, and the sky was now a dark purple looming over the park. We found a sense of peace and contentment in each other's company. In that moment, surrounded by the simplicity I saw a glimpse of what my life could be like forever, without the troubles and worries that were currently present.
Without any of it, everything was too close to perfect. It started to rain on us, we laughed and grasped one another hands as we ran to find where we parked the car. After many minutes of trying to find it, we finally saw the sleek black vehicle.
We chuckled as we both hoisted ourselves into safety from the rain.
Eric looked over at me with such warm passionate expression the cold wet rain that had been prickling my skin seemed to be replaced with a warmth he was seeping.
The tension was thick in the car as the rain cascaded down the windshields, the raging thunder making the ground rattle.
Eric leaned in brushing his nose against mine, our lips grazing against each other. In a heated moment, I pulled the back of his head closer and deepened the kiss. He moaned into my mouth as we caressed one another's tongues in a passionate battle. My panties were soaked and not because of the weather.
His hands explored my thighs, pulling up the skirt I was wearing and invading past my undergarments.
I felt his warm fingertips graze my quivering cunt, my entire body jolted as if I was struck by lightning.
He dipped his fingers inside me making me buck against him, my back arching against the seat. He removed his digits making me whimper, I arched my back as he placed them on my aching clit and began rubbing the sensitive bundle of nerves. I was a mess trying to keep the kiss going but I couldn't focus as my mouth kept hanging ajar with each stroke of my pussy. I was getting close, I could feel the sensation building up. He removed his hands from my pants, his chest was heaving, and his eyes filled with a lust that heavy and greedy.

"Back seat now" He ordered,
I crawled over the console and scooted to the side so he could sit in the middle. He sat down and gestured to his pants, he didn't need to use his words, I knew what I was supposed to do. I began to unbuckle his belt, sliding his boxers and pants down. He patted his lap and I obliged. His fingers wrapped around the flimsy material and with a yank they gave way. He threw them to the side and positioned himself at my entrance.
I braced myself as he slowly slipped past my smooth lips and inside me, each inch stretching me more than the last, my head was thrown back in ecstasy as he finally filled me to the brim. My warmth was involuntarily squeezing around him, making him growl in lust. He began bucking his hips meeting mine with each swift move. He ripped my shirt and bra down allowing my tits to fall out of their barrier, he grabbed them harshly, my nipples were so hard I'm pretty sure they could've cut through glass. He pinched them both as he fucked me into oblivion, the amount of pleasure I was feeling was overwhelming. My hand made its way down to my pulsating clit and I began to play with it.

"That's it, pretty girl, play with your pussy for me" His raspy voice just about sent me over the edge.
I moaned and threw my head back, his cock was fucking me to salvation.
Tears brimmed in my eyes at the pure amount of stimulation my body was receiving. All I could do was comply.

"Such a good slut" He whispered in my ear, tingles erupting. That was all it took to send me into waves of orgasmic bliss as I rode my high out, he was still pumping in and out of me harshly, and my orgasm felt like it was never going to end. He grabbed me by the back of my hair and held me there as he pounded my pussy, his thrusts started getting sloppy as his face contorted into an almost pained expression, I felt the moment he started cumming, the endless ropes covering my walls, his last few pumps I could feel it leaking out. I collapsed on his chest and we both were breathing heavily, our hearts thumping against our chests.

"I love you" He whispered caressing my cheek.

"I love you too" I whispered back.

It took a few minutes for us to clean up and get adjusted as we prepared to drive back home. The rain was still pouring from the skies, the dark clouds unbroken.  As we made our journey back home, chests lighter than before, I carried the knowledge that amid chaos and uncertainty, we could always find solace in each other no matter what was happening around us.
