Chapter 40 - Silence

Jo checks the messages on her phone and opens the one from her mom. 

Did Dart's mother like you?
I had coffee with Dirk yesterday,
he's a very nice guy.
xx 

Jo smiles at her phone, imagining her mother with Dirk. She replies to her mum, telling her everything went fine. The next message is from Laurent. 

You should record that voice.
You can use it on Dart when you
want something from him. 

She tries to hide her laugh and replies with a thumbs up and a winking emote. Maria texted her about the purple dress and how amazing it looked and how Jake really misses her. And then she sees a message from Pierre with some art he did. She looks at the first picture and sees it's of her and Dart. Dart is winking into the 'camera' with his crooked smile and she is pulling his tie with a fist close to his chin. The second one is of her in a skimpy, white dress and Dart in front of her on his knees, with hearts for his eyes and his tongue hanging out. 

Jo giggles and Dart asks her what she is laughing about. She shakes her head and he drives onto the driveway of his childhood home. Jo replies to Pierre, thanking him and telling him the art is awesome. Dart parks the car and looks over at her. She shows him the art Pierre made and he chuckles. "That is awesome! Pierre is such an amazing artist." 

Jo nods and whispers: "I asked him to make something for our wedding invitations." 

Dart looks a bit taken aback and says: "You would want his art on that? And smart move to whisper by the way." He winks at her. 

Jo smiles and says in her hoarse voice: "I would love to have his art on our invitations." 

Dart smiles and says: "I'll call him once we're inside. I would really like that too." They go inside and Claire greats them warmly. She asks Jo about the evening and Jo starts telling her about the launch. 

Claire stops her from talking and says: "Did you catch a cold Jo? Maybe you should rest for a bit." 

Dart lifts Jo up and says: "Yes, she seriously needs some rest. I will take her to bed, right now." He carries her up the stairs and Jo laughs, making him walk faster, leaving Claire stunned downstairs.Dart lays her down on the bed and says: "You can speak now, love." But Jo just stares at him and keeps her mouth shut. Dart tickles her over and over, to hear her hoarse laughter. 

Eventually she begs him for mercy: "Please, Dart. Let me catch my breath." 

He moans and says: "I'll try. If you promise you will keep talking to me." He lays down on his side,  lifts up the hem of her shirt and slowly runs a finger over her revealed skin. 

Jo shivers and says: "D'Artagnan? Je t'aime." 

Dart gasps and groans: "Mon Dieu!" He leans over to her stomach and kisses it over and over, before looking up at her and saying: "Keep talking." 

"I am not really sure what to talk about here. I don't think your mum is a good subject." Dart bites her stomach and Jo lets out a squeal. "Okay so no talking about your mum. Maybe about the woman of your dreams?" Dart lifts her shirt up higher and licks his way op to her bra. Jo moans and says: "There's no way I can keep on talking, if you keep doing that." 

Dart pulls her bra down and licks the skin of her breasts, making Jo moan again. "Dart..." He looks up at her with a very pleased smile and unbuttons her jeans, before sliding his hand down. Jo moans louder. "Dart..please." Dart keeps on touching and tasting her and Jo grabs his hair, pulling him up to her face. 

Dart grins and says: "What do you want love?" He brings his lips close to hers, but just far away enough to make sure they don't touch. Jo begs him with her eyes and tries to move her face closer, but he backs away and says: "Say it love." He pulls his hands away from her body and holds himself up, hovering over her and waiting.
