Abe Sapien and the Witch

Chapter 39

She woke late into the next morning, aware of the warm body that lay pressed against hers. For a moment she panicked, wanting to pull away until his arm circled her waist, easing her closer as his gentle words filled her ears, "It's alright darling, you are here, with me..."

She curved into his embrace and found herself eye to eye with him on the pillow. "Good morning," she said, smiling though she was still a little bit groggy from sleep. "We never did eat that pizza..." she said, and the two of them started to laugh, easing any tension between them.

He pecked a gentle kiss on the tip of her nose. "Well I hear that pizza tastes good hot or cold," he said, his own lips curving into a sweet smile, "not that I would know- I've never tried it." "Oh well, we must change that!" she said, pulling herself up on one elbow, "we must right this grievous wrong!"

His gaze strayed to her stomach, which didn't show very much from under her nightie, though he of course knew that the bump was there. "May I?" he asked, sitting up to join her. She cocked her head, unsure of what he wished for, until he reached his hand over to caress her stomach. She smiled, pulling her nightie higher so that his hand touched against her bare skin.

"You are so warm," she said, and his cheeks darkened a little to a purple hue with a blush, "I suppose I always am, when I am with you." She cupped his cheek in her hand, and he leaned over her, his mouth pressing against hers in a delicate kiss.

She smiled, and at her approval his kiss became more intense. The months of longing for each other escaped between them as their breathing became more rapid, and their tongues reached to greet the others in a lustful dance.

He eased her body lower in the bed, settling between her open legs as she tugged at her underpants, kicking them off of her leg while the heat between them intensified. Their need for each other was strong, and soon he was squirming out of his shorts while she gazed up at him, her eyelids half-closed with want.

He pressed back down against her, lifting her body closer around him before he stopped, his breathing heavy, "Wait, is this alright?" he asked and she looked at him, mystified as to why he was stopping when every fibre of her body was screaming out for him.

"Huh?" she asked, squirming her groin against him, "With, um...well, it won't hurt the baby?" he asked, and realisation dawned. "Oh, no! Gosh no, not at all" she said, smiling at how sweet he was. Even in a moment of utter passion he was thinking of others over himself.

"Right..." he said, taking her word for it though still he was doubtful, "...you're sure?" "Abe," she laughed, rotating herself against him so that he gasped, "I promise you. It's fine." He let out a soft groan and his lips found her neck, tracing gentle kisses down as far as the top of her nightie before he lifted her hips, pressing himself deep inside of her with one slow, deliberate movement.

Her back arched, and she let out a gasp before his mouth found hers again. He kissed her while moving against her, until her breath was coming in short gasps and her body tightened around his. She could hear herself saying his name as her world turned to stars, and she knew from the fluttering sensation inside that he too was sharing this moment with her.

Catching their breath, Abe pulled back to lie alongside her. She fluffed herself against the pillows, cheeks red with heat. "You ripped my nightie," she said, showing him the torn end of it, and they both started to laugh, holding each other close.
