Gary and Libby - Take One

Chapter Seventy Three

  "We need a name." Gary pants against my neck.
"What?" I half laugh as i try and regain my breath.
"For Mr here." He places one hand on my tolerable bump. "We need a name."
"Oh," I smile. "I kind of already had an idea..." I chew on my bottom lip.
"Go on..." Gary raises his eyebrow as he bends down to drag back on his boxers.
"Mark." I try and keep a straight face.
"You're taking the piss right?"  Garys green eyes pierce through me. God i love winding him up.
"No..." I shake my head and try to act offended by his abrupt manner. "Gary i really like the name..."
"Libby, if you think for one moment i will even consider naming our baby after the ma-"
"Gary im joking!" I burst into fits of laughter as i double over in front of him.
"You..." He breathes out, taking a deep breath."Bitch." He goes to grab my wrists but i cease my opportunity and make a run for the door. I head straight for the bathroom, and try and lock the door, but Garys too strong and fast and pushes it open with ease. Im still laughing uncontrollably as i jump into the shower and turn on the water, knowing full well that Gary will have to waste time taking his t-shirt and his boxers on. Serves him right.

"You!" Gary makes me jump as he grabs me suddenly by the hips, i try to wriggle free and i can tell he still has his T-shirt and boxers on. Bastard. "You are horrible" He laughs with me, i pull the water jet free and spray him in the face so he has to let go of my hips. "That wasn't funny!" He splutters as he goes to grab me again, but i pull the bottom of his t-shirt up over his head so now he cant see either. Whilst he drags it off i pull down his boxers, still laughing so much i cant breathe.
"What is so funny?" Gary grins once hes kicked away his boxers and is stood naked infront of me.
"Just you!" I giggle, "When you get all wound up."
"Thats not funny!" He growls back in mock anger, this time its his turn to twist the shower head so it sprays in my face. The shower door is still wide open and the bathroom is soaked.
"Stop" I splutter, pushing Garys arm above my head so the water isnt hitting my face. "You bastard!"
"Im the bastard?" He chokes, shutting the shower door too to keep the water in. "Im not the one that wanted to call out baby Mark you bitch!" He squirts the water into my face again as im about to speak and i get a mouthful of it.
"Stop Gary!" I sound like im drowning, but im laughing too much to do anything constructive. "Stop." I breathe again. This time Gary willingly lets me take the shower head from his hand and attach it back to the wall. When i turn around again hes grinning at me.

"What?" I smirk.
"Just you." He grins back. "You're so cute."
"Cute?" I twist my lips into a sideways smile. "I thought i was a bitch?"
"Yea well." Gary shrugs, taking a step closer to me and balancing his hands on my hips. "You're that too."
"Gee, thanks..." I furrow my brow in mock annoyance.
"You love it." Gary just grins confidently, before his lips claim mine. He kisses me passionately, like he did that very first night on my doorstep. I run my hand along his wet stubbed cheek and into his damp hair, dragging my finger through it like a comb. Gary snakes one hand behind my back, holding me too him at the base of my spine. The other hand glides and tangles into my hair, he tugs ever so gently and i cant help but groan onto his mouth. Gary runs his tongue over my lips as he wills them to open, i obey and within seconds his tongue is exploring each and every corner of my mouth. I do the same to him as i run my hand back down over the side of his face and stroke his earlobe before, toying with his stubble.
I open my eyes slowly and notice Garys piercing green eyes staring straight into mine, he slows the kiss down slightly and begins to just chew gently on my bottom lip as our gazes lock. His eyes are tame, but wild at the same time somehow as he stares deep into mine. Running his fingers delicately up and down my spine, he closes his eyes once more and resumes the kiss. This time kissing me gently, my lips instinctively move in time with his. My whole body is alight. I run my tongue around the inside of his mouth, savouring what i can of him because i know any moment he'll pull away.
Slowly, Gary pants a final kiss on my lips and does just that, dropping his one hand to the top of my neck.

"Ethan." I breathe a satified breath.
"Ethan?" Gary raises his eyebrows in confusion.
"Yea, for Mr here..." I smirk, my fingers still stroking the short hairs at the back of Garys head.
"Ethan..." Garys nods slowly, dropping his forhead against mine as he speaks. "Yea, i like Ethan. Ethan it is." He leans down at kisses my lips again swiftly, his hands slidding down to my hips.
"Im tired Gary..." I murmur, i feel like a spoil sport, but im genuinly exhausted.
"Alright Baby." He smiles down at me, and reaches for the towel. "Shit,,," He mutters under his breath, stepping out of the shower completley.
"What?"
"Its soaked!" Gary chuckles, wrapping the wet towel around his own waist as he goes to find me a try one. By the time he comes back im shivering in the shower.
"Come 'ere." He smiles softly at me as he holds out the biggest fluffiest towel he could possibly have gone and found. I step into it with a sleepy smile.
"Thank you." I whisper as he wraps it under my arms and steers in across into the bedroom, hes already pulled the covers back for me. Bless him.
"Come on." He kisses my shoulder as he tucks me in. "You sure you're okay? You dont want anything?"
I shake my head with a smile. "No thank you."
"Alright." Gary makes his was round to his side of the bed, to my disappointment hes pulled on a pair of black Calvin Klein boxers. "Night Baby." He wraps his arms around me from behind, warming me suddenly and kissing me just below my ear. "Love you."
"Love you too..." I mutter as my eyes begin to close.

When i wake up in the morning im in bed alone, Gary must have woken early,...or not. I glance at the the time.
11:56 am
Fuck! Its Monday! Im late for work! Shit shit shit! I climb out of bed and realise that im still in the towel from last night. I let it drop to the floor and drag on some clothes suitable to actually go to work in. Grabbing some black heels from the wardrobe i race down the stairs.
"Gary?" I call. "Gaz why didnt you wake me? Im late!"

I burst into the kitchen and Gary is sat on the worktop, a finger pressed to his lips and his phone to his ear. Oops. I stand infront of him, resting one hand on his knee as i balance myself to put my shoes on. I watch him as he furrows his brow at me.
"Ye...look Nicole, im going to have to call you back laer, okay?" He speaks into the phone. Oh, Its her.
"Yes. I will....Nicole im going, ill talk to you later."
"What does she want?" I mutter once hes hung up.
"Nothing." Gary looks down at me. "Where are you going?"
"To work," I answer as i pick my bag up from the kitchen table.
"In those?" He nods disapprovingly at my shoes as he sides off the worktop.
"Yes, In these." I give him a patronising smile.
"Are you sure you'll be okay? I dont want you falling."
Im trying not to laugh because hes been deadly serious, but hes so over protective sometimes.
"Ill be fine Gary." I smile reassuringly as i take out my car keys.
"Ill drive you."
"No you wont." I shake my head. "I want to drive myself, plus i have an appointment with the doctor after so ill be home late."
"Well i want to come to that."
"You dont need to." I shake my head, as i reach to kiss the corner of his mouth. "...Anyway, itll give you more time to stay here and fuck Nicole." I look down at the floor after my rather childish remark.
"Oi." Gary tilts my chin up. "Dont start."
"Sorry." I sigh, "You'll stay away from her right? Please Gary, dont see her when im not here..."
"Dont you trust me?" He sounds slightly offended, Shit.
"Of course i do." I plant a quick kiss on his lips again. "I just dont trust her." With that, i turn on my heels and head for work....
