In Need of You

Chapter Eighteen

Sabrina nuzzled her nose in Elisha's chest as she stirred. She placed her hand over his heart, feeling it thump against it. His arm tightened around her shoulders as he slumbered. The cool breeze from the ceiling fan touched her skin where the comforter missed to protect. She snuggled more into his body heat, feeling the muscles tense in his chest and biceps as he stirred.

"Good morning, beautiful," Elisha whispered. He kissed her forehead, then rested his head back onto the pillow.

"Good morning," Sabrina replied, placing a kiss on his chest.

"Mmm. I like that."

Sabrina smiled. For the first time in almost twelve hours, she smiled genuinely rather than put on a brave face. Still, she couldn't help but think about how everything happened so quickly. Losing her apartment. Getting fired from her job. These things just didn't happen without reasonable cause. That was, unless, his father had anything to do with it.

He obviously had left them alone. He hadn't called Elisha nor reared his ugly head in nearly a month. Though, there was still the possibility that he could have been behind all of that crap. He could have been warning her to leave his son alone or something bad was going to happen to her. She closed her eyes. He could have been looking into his home at that very moment, waiting for the perfect moment to strike her when she wasn't expecting it.

Sabrina jumped, then sat up from his chest. She glared into Elisha's eyes, seeing the worry in them. He ran his fingers through her hair. "What's wrong?"

"Thinking too much," she replied, placing her head back on his chest. "I hope this isn't," she stopped, not wanting to upset him.

"That my dad isn't doing this to you," Elisha finished her thought. He watched the ceiling fan turn quickly. "He thinks that I chose you over him."

Sabrina circled her index finger in the center of his chest. "Did you?"

He sighed. "I didn't. I love my dad, but I hate how he sees you. I hate how speaks of you and Madeline." He took a deep breath, then released it slowly. "I guess maybe I did, in a way."

Sabrina looked at him, noticing a tear fall from his eye. She'd never seen this man cry. Even when he was injured and laid up in the hospital, he never shed a tear. She didn't think he knew how, until now. "Lisha," she whispered. "I didn't mean to make you--"

He covered her lips with his index finger. "You didn't anger me, Sabrina. Please don't think that." He moved his index finger from her lips to her chin, caressing it. "You matter more to me than his foolishness."

She glared into his eyes and nodded. "I just don't want to be the reason why there is a wedge between you and your father, Lisha."

"You're not," he replied. "His hatred is."

Pulling her into a kiss, she felt his hand caress the small of her back. His fingers moved across her skin, making her arch her foot and rub it against his leg as she moved it up. Sabrina centered herself on top of him. Her bare breasts were pressed against his chest. His fingers slid slowly up her spine, forcing her to suck in a breath. She closed her eyes. The feel of his tongue against her neck made her bite her bottom lip.

"Elisha," she whispered. She stared into his eyes, losing herself in them. "I never thought I would fall in love again, until you. You've made me feel what it's like to be loved. . . to feel it . . . to bask in it. I love you so much."

He smiled, then kissed her lips. "I fell in love with you when I first saw you. You gave me the sun," he said, kissing her lips once more. "Let me send you into orbit."

He rolled Sabrina onto her back and eased himself in between her thighs. He left a trail of kisses from her neck to her breasts, taking each nipple into his mouth and swirling his tongue around each one until they reached their peaks. Moving from her breasts, Elisha kissed her navel. He propped himself on his elbows and stared into her Sabrina's eyes as he applied his tongue to her clit. He watched her close her eyes. Her back arched in response to him kissing her lower lips.

She threw her head back onto the pillow. Intertwining her fingers with his, she held on tight to him, feeling his tongue enter her vagina. "Oh my God!" Sabrina moaned. "Please don't stop."

He groaned against her lower lips, making her grab onto the bedsheets. She moved against his tongue, making him rub his shaft against the smoothness of the bed. "Lisha," she said, sucking in a breath. "Baby, I'm...," she screamed, feeling the orgasm rush throughout her body.

Elisha kissed her inner thigh and laid next to her. He pulled her into a kiss. She could taste the saltiness and tang of her own essence on his tongue as he flicked into her mouth. She moaned, then smiled. She hated to admit that she'd never had oral sex before, but for the first time, it was everything she dreamt of and then some.

He smiled while caressing her cheek with his index finger. "I love you."

"I love you too," she said. She glared into his eyes. "What about you?"

"You don't have to if you don't want to," he replied, staring in her eyes. "I would rather please you than make you feel uncomfortable."

"I wanna please you too," she said. Sabrina kissed his chest, then made her way to his navel. She took his shaft into her hand and stroked his full length. It grew in hand as she took her tongue against the side of it. She looked into his eyes, feeling his hand caress her shoulders. He moaned aloud as she took his shaft into her mouth.

"Oh my God!" Elisha moaned. He moved her hair from her face, watching her head bob up and down. She twirled her tongue around the tip and kissed it before taking it back into her mouth. She stroked him while sliding him in and out of her mouth.

"Sabrina," he moaned. "Baby, I'm about to climax."

She twirled her tongue around the tip of his shaft before gliding her hand against the wetness she created. Stroking him, Elisha held onto her shoulders. She listened to his breathing as it labored through the moans. He closed his eyes tight and threw his head against the pillow as he released his creamy goodness onto his already sweaty skin.

She laid next to him with a smile. "Was that okay?"

He glared at her and smiled. "You've never done this before haven't you?"

"What makes you think that?" She caressed his chest with her fingers.

"You seemed nervous. As many times we've made love, you were never nervous," Elisha replied.

She covered face with her hands, trying to hide her red cheeks and smile. She laughed. "I'm so embarrassed."

He smiled while moving her hands from her face. "Don't be. I'm happy that I was your first, orally speaking."

She smiled, then kissed his lips. "You're silly, Lisha."

"I'm glad your smiling. Yesterday was so hard for you."

She sighed. "It really was."

"But, I have a way that I can make that go away."

"How?"

"Let me make love to you," whispered as he pulled her body close to his. "Roll on your side for me, beautiful."

Sabrina rolled on her side. Feeling his glide inside her slowly, he held her closer to his body, keeping her still. As he began to thrust, he watched her close her eyes and bite her lower lip.

Each thrust inside her went deeper and deeper. He caressed her hip and kissed her shoulder as he quickened his pace. His breath upon her skin made her moan louder. She gripped the bedsheets, pulling them from one of their rounded corners.

This was more than just casual sex, Sabrina thought. This was love mixed with passion at its finest. Every thrust into her vagina made her thirst for more. Elisha had done something that Tariq couldn't even fathom doing. Give her love. Give her respect. Give her thrills. Give her orgasms.

"I love you," she said as she moaned.

"I love you too, beautiful." He kissed the back of her neck. "Give it to me, baby."

Sabrina screamed. Every fiber in her body tingled with vibrations as she listened to him moan after her. She nestled in his arms and breathed in his essence. Elisha was more than just his skin color. He was a blessing.

Ava smirked. She backed away from their bedroom window with a camera in hand. "He won't be yours for too much longer, sweetheart." She grinned. "Cause he's all mine."
