HALFWAY

FRESH START

"Where'd you want this?" Brian asked, holding up a lamp in his right hand. I had finally gotten my own apartment back in L.A. after spending a few weeks at Brian's house in New York, and not looking to overstay my welcome, he accompanied me back home to search and move into a suitable apartment for myself and the baby once he or she had finally arrived.

"Just put it next to the couch." I said, pointing to the top of a small drawer set.

"At least now it's starting to look a lot more like an apartment." He said as he flicked on the light, smiling at me as he made his way over to where I was standing. "I'm so proud of you." He said, placing both of his hands on either side of my waist, pulling me closer as I snaked my hands around the back of his neck.

"I'm not really sure what there is to be proud of, but I'm still happy with the compliment." I smirked up at him.

"You don't think that you've got anything to be proud of?" He announced as he looked around.

"A mattress on the floor, a couch, an unplanned pregnancy... Oh and a lamp, sure, a lot to be proud of." I joked as he shook his head in response.

"I'm serious, Jess. Look at everything that you've been through. Everything we've been through. And now you're in your own apartment, with a baby on the way.."

"Crazy, right?" I asked, feeling extremely overwhelmed, and wondering if he must have felt the same way.

"It wouldn't be us if there wasn't a little crazy." He stated, matter-of-factly.

"True." I said, planting a quick peck onto his lips before pulling away, heading into my bedroom. I picked up the bed sheets that I had packed separately and began to unfold them, watching as Brian entered the room and grabbed the opposite end, helping me place them onto the bed.

"So how'd you feel about having this big ole bed to yourself?" He asked, almost teasing.

"It's like you forget that when you go home, you'll be sleeping alone also." I shot him a glance.

"You got me there." He replied, placing the blanket back onto the bed, before walking around to where I was standing. "Just gonna have to make the most of it whilst we're together then, aren't we?"

"I don't know.. I think I might enjoy it." I played, enjoying the look on his face in response.

"No." He groaned, voice muffled as he closed his face in on my neck, planting sloppy kisses along it. "Tell me you don't mean it now." He said, as he continued his assault of kisses.

"I still mean it." I tried my best to keep my composure, having way too much fun messing with his head, although to some degree he obviously knew that I was just playing around.

"How about now?" He asked, nibbling at a certain spot, knowing that was the soft spot that always drove me crazy. I let out a soft moan, feeling his smirk build against my skin. "Works every time." He said, inching his face closer to mine, our lips now connecting.

What started as small kisses, ended up in a needy, full blown make out session with Brian now pushing me until my back was met with the bed. I slid myself up along the bed, followed moments later by Brian now hovering above me.

Wasting no time, he lifted his shirt up over his head, before fumbling with the bottom of my shirt until he repeated the same on mine. He glanced down at my chest, dropping kisses over it as he reached around my back, unclasping my bra and pulling it off, throwing it to the side. His mouth now reattached itself to my nipples, tongue swirling over the now hardened nub, himself groaning in response.

Making out once more, I undid his belt, followed shortly by his zipper, before pushing his jeans slightly down along with his boxers. He was already more than hard, and all I had to do now was rid myself off my own.

Pushing Brian so that he was now laid on his back, I pulled his jeans off the rest of the way, before standing up at the end of the bed and letting my pants and underwear fall to the floor. Brian now watching, not able to keep his gaze from travelling up and down my body.

"Fuck, get up over here would ya." He said, grasping his member, rubbing it slowly as he awaited my presence. I smirked mischievously as I crawled back onto the bed, throwing my leg over his waist, grabbing him in one hand as I slowly ran his head along my entrance, before letting him enter me inch by inch.

A moan fell from Brian's mouth as I began to rock my hips, taking in the view of his crumpled face, completely taken over by the pleasure he was feeling. After a few moments, his grip on my hips tightened as he began to push and pull me to grind faster and harder. My hands that were planted on his chest, were now grasping for skin as the pleasure that I was feeling intensified, pants and groans now filling the room.

Brian now pushed us over so that he was on top, before pumping himself in and out at an impeccable force, leaving me grasping at his shoulder at the pillow at the same time, all but gasping for air.

"Oh my god, Brian, holy shit." I whimpered in his ear, now running my hand up into his hair, pulling on it roughly.

I could tell by his deeper breaths that he wasn't going to last much longer, and if he were to keep going like he was, neither would I.

He reached his hand down in between us, rubbing his fingers over my clit, the two different kinds of pleasure combining into one as I felt a pit begin to form in my stomach, before I started to contract around his length.

"Shit." Brian growled, as I felt him erupt inside of me. His hot breaths returning to my neck as he tried to regain himself, before falling next to me, chest raising and falling as he steadied his breathing. I saw him look over at me, before laughing a little at what had just happened. One moment we were moving stuff in, the next we were lying naked next to one another. That was pretty much our whole relationship together thus far, completely spontaneous and dare I say.. Unpredictable?

"Guess we're gonna have to change the sheets again.." I said through a chuckle.
