Unchained Melody (Daniel Ricciardo)

I want, i need

Daniel can't believe what he just heard. Also he's a bit distracted by Ayla's finger still going over his zipper and his cock getting harder by the second.

He tries not to get his hopes up too much, because he knows Ayla can change her mind at any moment and he would understand that.
But she is touching him, she is looking at him with her silvery blue eyes and he can see the desire burning in them.

It could actually be happening tonight, but the thought of it makes him nervous.
If he does anything wrong, he might ruin it for her. He might only make it worse.
He cannot fuck up, it's up to him to make sure Ayla has the best experience after what happened to her.

There's a lot of weight suddenly pressing on his shoulders and he swallows, trying to temper his nerves a bit.

"It's fine if you don't want it, you know. I would understand." Ayla says after seeing Daniel's stress building up in his eyes.
His body also feels more tense, as if he is about to freak out.

In her mind, he reacts like this because deep down he does think she is disgusting even though he says he doesn't.
Subconsciously he could feel different than to what he is saying.

Daniel realizes Ayla has interpreted his hesitation the wrong way. She removes her hand from his crotch and she suddenly seems to lose that little bit of confidence she just mustered up to tell him that she wanted to try to have sex with him.

He quickly grabs her hand to make sure she doesn't get up from the couch.
She looks back at him, the desire replaced by insecurity and pain.

"There's nothing I want to do more than that baby. I'm not hesitating because I don't want to do it. I just realized how important this is and that I have to make it perfect for you. I can't screw this up and add to your trauma or fear." He explains, praying in his head that she will understand and that he didn't just destroy the chance he had.

Ayla looks down at their hands, their fingers instinctively intertwined, connected like they are connected as well.
If Daniel is telling the truth, she understands why he would be nervous. She just doesn't believe that he could make it a bad experience.

That first time he didn't know she was still a virgin, but as soon as he realized he wanted to stop, he didn't want her to regret it. But when she convinced him she wanted it and he continued, it was magical. There's no way he could do anything wrong.

"So it's not because you don't want me in that way?" She asks for her confirmation.
Daniel vigorously shakes his head.
"God no baby. You know I want you. There's nothing I want more than to be able to make love to you and make it perfect. I'm just scared I can't make it perfect."

This man who was always so confident and sure about himself has lost so much of that. Not only because of his results on track, but also because Kendra has pretty much kicked him when he was already down.

Her words have created this insecurity about his ability to pleasure a woman. The times he and Kendra were intimate he tried to make it amazing for her, but she just never really participated. Sometimes it felt like all his attempts to please her were just a waste of time and effort.

"Daniel, you are not going to disappoint. I know you are amazing and besides, we're both in this together. We both need to enjoy it. Not just me. I can't promise I will be able to go through with it, but I really want to try. I love you so much and I need to be that close to you. We need that."

Determined not to let him get stuck in his insecurities, she puts her hand on his stubbly cheek and softly presses her lips on his.
As soon as their lips touch they are both lost in each other.
