Under The Mistletoe

Part 16

Unwrapped

I watched her as she trembled and bit her lip. I smiled and touched her face. I had never felt like I did with her. Would it be so bad to allow her that boon of letting her family and her friends know who her boyfriend was? What was I afraid of? She loved me. My friends and family knew who she was, what she looked like and had spent time with us, hell they'd spend more. Was I being selfish and inconsiderate or was I trying to preserve something that would preserve itself over time? It wasn't like she didn't know my dating history already. I smiled again. "I love you, Lizette Michaels."

"I love you too, Avriel Kaplan." I closed the distance between us and captured his lips with mine. The need was strong. Someday he would let me tell people. I knew he wasn't hiding me or us, but he had been burned a lot in the past and he was protecting himself. I could only imagine what that was like. I poured every ounce of my love and understanding into the kiss as I wrapped my arms around his neck and pushed him towards the couch.

Always comfortable in her arms, I let her lead me where she wanted me to go and focused solely on the love she was giving me. A warm deep sound escaped my throat as I wrapped my hands around her back and gave into the kiss.

I trailed my lips across his cheek and to his ear. I whispered my need for him and continued my assault on his neck. I couldn't explain the need that I was feeling, but I wanted to resolve it.

I felt all kinds of emotions as she trailed her lips over my cheek. My desire burned when she whispered hers in my ear. I lifted my chin so she could have access to my throat and purred as she nibbled. I pulled her body down over me and moaned softly.

I moaned into his throat as I nibbled and bit softly. "Take me to bed, please."

I mumbled and shifted us so I could carry her to what was currently our bedroom. She tucked into me and nuzzled under my beard. I sighed and smiled as I lay her on our bed. "What more can I do for you, princess?" She was my princess, my world, my life. Given time, there wasn't anything that I would not do for her. Realizing that made me want to cry.

"Make love to me. Please. I need that." It was what I craved from him in that moment. I was almost ready to cry. I sighed. I knew I didn't have to beg and he would give me exactly what I wanted.

"Okay." I touched her face, letting my fingertips trail down her jawline to her chin. I touched her chin with my thumb and pulled my eyes away from hers long enough to look at her lips and then back up. The kiss I gave her was slow and deliberate as I laid my body gently over hers. I gave her a dozen gentle touches and kissed her tenderly. We were headed into all eyes and heart. I took my time slipping her out of her clothing and quietly removed mine. I gave into the soft desire I had for her and moved with slow powerful movements until we were both naked and breathless and lay in each other's arms waiting for the next step. I was content to kiss and gently touch and ready to give her all of me emotionally and physically and I was ready to do it all without uttering a single word. I lay beside her, my hand on her face and looked into her eyes.

His eyes held mine in a trance as I gave my heart and soul over to him as completely as I did my body. Everything I was, belonged to him. I started to tell him, but he put his finger over my lips and shook his head slowly. I pressed my hips into his and ran my hands over his shoulders. My eyes asked him to continue to take me to the places that only he could.

As I kissed her I slipped my knee between hers and gently rolled us so she was on her back. Meticulously I moved my other knee between her legs and opened them to make room for me. I hovered, my body millimeters from her hot core and kissed her again. It was slow torture. I timed it all out without a thought dipping my body into hers as I slipped my tongue past her teeth. I pushed in slowly and pulled out the same then did it all over again repeatedly.

I moaned as his body entered mine. I closed my eyes and let myself ride the sensations taking over my body. The movements of his mouth coincided with the movements of his body. The actions were slow and tender and pure, delicious, torture. It was exactly what I wanted. His pace was perfect, my body wrapped around his, our tongues danced. It wasn't long before I was ready to tumble over the edge.

I followed her lead and listened to the soft sweet sounds she made. Mine echoed hers. She was hot and wet and tightening around me as we moved. I didn't need to change a thing, time would take us both and it did in the most beautiful powerful way. Sex had never been more satisfying and rewarding, but it was also exhausting. What energy I had, I gave to her. I gave her my everything and had nothing left to give. I curled beside her and pulled her close, tangling my legs and body in hers. I kissed her forehead, her nose and her lips whispering 'I love you' against them and passed out cold.

We came together in beautiful bliss. It was satisfying and rewarding. I felt loved and cherished and worshipped. Afterward, he tangled his body with mine and drifted off to sleep. I curled into him and let his breathing lull me to sleep. "I love you too."

I woke, curled behind Lizzie, naked and warm in my bed needing to pee something fierce. I looked at the clock, it was still very early, but we had slept the night through. I got up and walked to the bathroom after untangling myself from her.

I stirred as he pulled away from me. I rolled over and crawled under the covers and curled up with his pillow and drifted back to sleep.

She was cute. I grabbed some shorts and wandered out to the living room. The tree scared the crap out of me for a moment. I laughed at myself and moved on. I needed to start breakfast. I put water on for tea and got to cooking hoping the smells would wake her.

I smelled bacon cooking and realized I had to go potty. I went to the bathroom and brushed my hair. I pulled on some panties and his t-shirt and made my way to the kitchen. He was standing in front of the stove singing Christmas carols. I giggled and leaned against the door frame. "Good morning sunshine."

"Wah! Ou, ou, ou." I shook my hand. "Hi. Ha. I'm not used to that, even though I knew I was cooking for two. Goodmorning, Love."

"Mmm. That smells amazing." What time do we need to be ready to leave?" I made my way across the kitchen and wrapped my arms around his waist.

"We should head out about noonish. Can you get the plates out of the dishwasher? I hadn't put them away yet."

"Sure." I got him two plates and put the rest of the dishes away. I grabbed a couple of mugs and two forks as well. "What are we having?"

"Bacon, eggs, and toast. Do you want any fruit or cottage cheese?"

I shook my head and got out two tea bags and the honey. "Did you want juice?"

"Yes please." I put the food on the only two plates I had and joined her at the table. "You ready for today?"

I poured juice into two glasses and waited for him at the table. "I think so. A little nervous, but I love your parents. What should I wear?"

"Clothes."

I rolled my eyes and picked up a piece of bacon. "Really? Do I need to dress up or is this a jeans thing?"

"Babe, you worry too much. Jeans are fine. It should just be the four of us. Two couples. It will--"

"Turn out fine?" I dug into the eggs and sipped my tea. "Hopefully I don't do anything embarrassing or say the wrong thing. I want them to love me."

"They do."
