  To Davio everything was fuzzy. He knew they had crashed, but he couldn’t seem to gain his senses. He tried to sit up but dizziness overtook him and he lay back on the ground. He asked Ashley if she was hurt and was grateful when she told him no. He had to get his senses back so he could figure a way to get them out of here. He had no idea where they were, or if there were any houses close by.

  Ashley knew that Davio had suffered head trauma, and that she needed to get him back to the plane if possible. She asked him if he thought he could walk if he leaned on her. He told her he would try, but they needed to take it slow. Finally Ashley was able to get him on his feet and give him support when he started to stagger. The rear half of the plane still had the couch intact and she needed to get him there if possible. It seemed to take forever, but finally she managed to help Davio to the couch so that he could lay down and rest for a while. She had no idea what they were going to do, but she needed Davio to come back to his senses so they could devise some sort of plan to get help. Davio really needed medical attention, but Ashley had no way of getting it for him.

  While Davio rested, Ashley began exploring the area, searching for anything that would help them. She discovered a first aid kit and quickly opened it to find bandages, antibiotic cream, and scissors. She went back to Davio and removed the strip of clothing that she had tied around his head. Thankfully the bleeding had stopped, so she took one of the alcohol pads and cleaned the area before applying the antibiotic cream. She found a bandage that looked to be the right size and placed it over the wound. She noticed from the sky that darkness was not far away. She feared they would be stuck there for the night. Davio had filed a flight plan, but it would be a while before they were found.

  As darkness started to fall, Ashley was searching for anything she could find to make the two of them more comfortable. There was a refrigerated compartment in the rear of the plane that had bottled water, apples, and cheese. She grabbed a bottle and tried to get Davio to drink. He managed to get in a few sips before returning to unconsciousness. Ashley grabbed a bottle and an apple, knowing that she must somehow keep her strength up. Until Davio was able to walk, they were stuck here. She wasn’t about to leave him alone, and she had no idea where to go to find help. Since Davio was asleep on the couch, Ashely grabbed a cushion off one of the seats and placed it under her head. She lay down, not expecting to get any sleep, but at least she could rest for a while.

  Davio had a splitting headache. The glare of the sun woke him, causing him to squint in pain. He looked around and saw that he was on the couch and Ashley was asleep on the floor of the plane. He reached down and touched her to let her know that he was awake.

  Ashley sat up with a start. She looked up to see Davio awake on the couch, holding his head.

  “How are you feeling,” she asked.

  “My head is about to split in two, but at least I am not dizzy anymore,” he said. “We have got to find a way to get out of here. I need to find the cabin of the plane and see if we still have radio contact.”

  Ashley had not thought to check the radio, but she somehow doubted it was working. She had not heard anything since the crash. She helped Davio up and they walked across the field where the cabin had landed. Davio picked up the mic but it was as she suspected, the crash had ruined the radio.

  “What do we do now,” she asked.

  “For the time being we wait. The tower will know that we are in trouble since we did not arrive on schedule. They will send out a search party, but it could take days to find us. I don’t have any idea where we are, or what we are close to,” Davio said. “But we need to stay with the plane if possible. That is where they will be looking for us.”

  Ashely was thankful that at least they had part of the plane where they could get out of the sun, and they had water and some food for the time being. She longed for a hot shower and the comfort of her bed, but there was no telling when she would ever get back home. She supposed that she should be thankful that they were alive. The plane was broken up pretty bad, and it was a miracle that either of them survived. She reflected that she had not told anybody that she was leaving town, and she guessed that Davio had not told anyone either. Their only hope was the tower. She just hoped that a search party was sent out soon. They had precious little to survive on.

  They were forced to spend another night in the plane. Neither of them could get a signal out on their cell phones. Ashley knew that soon their batteries would be completely dead and they had no way to charge them. She slept fitfully, hoping that they would be discovered soon. The days were long when all you had to do is sit and wait to be rescued. Davio talked to her, trying to keep her calm while also trying to pass the time. With every day that went by, the outlook was getting bleaker. Davio determined that if they were not found soon they would have to set out on foot in search of civilization.

  Davio sat up straight. He was sure he heard the blades of a chopper. He ran outside to see if he could determine which way it was coming from. The sound was getting closer and Davio screamed for Ashley to join him. They must make sure the chopper saw them. They were both waving their arms in the air with the chopper came into view. Finally, they had been found.

  The chopper descended slowly, trying to find a safe spot to land. The debris from the plane was scattered across the field, making the landing difficult. Once the chopper was on the ground the pilot turned off the engine, allowing Davio and Ashley to walk up to it. The pilot stepped out and introduced himself as Andrew Simmons. Ashley had never seen anything that looked as good as that huge chopper sitting in the middle of airplane debris.

  Andrew told them they had been searching for two days, but they were searching such a large area it was impossible for them to locate them any faster. Ashley was just glad they had finally found them. She and Davio gathered up a few of their belongings and headed toward the chopper. Ashley was a little hesitant to get back on an aircraft, but she knew the chopper was the only way out. The pilot insisted they take Davio to the nearest hospital to get checked out before heading back to Chicago. Davio protested, but the pilot was not taking no for an answer.

  Once Davio was cleared by the hospital to fly again, they were finally on their way home. Ashley thought she could sleep for a month, right after she had a decent meal. Cheese, apples, and water had kept them from starving, but she was ready for something more substantial.

  The Chicago airport was within their sights, and Ashley thought she had never seen anything that looked better. Finally they were back on the ground in Chicago, safe and sound. Andrew told Davio he needed to report to the tower and fill out a report about the crash. Experts would go to the scene and try to analyze what had caused them to crash. Davio told them everything that he could think of, but he still did not understand what had happened to their fuel. Finally, they were in Davio’s car and on the road to home.

  Chapter 2

  Ashely’s apartment had never looked so good. It was good to have her feet on stable ground with a real bed to sleep in, and a real shower to clean up in. She stepped into the shower and allowed the hot water to run over her sore muscles. By the time she was finished she could hardly hold her eyes open. She stumbled to her bed and fell asleep as soon as she hit the pillow.

  Davio called Ashley to see how she was doing. She told him she needed a few days of rest before she returned to work. She was sore, tired, and still a bit shaken by what had happened. Davio understood, telling her to take as long as she needed. She had just stretched out on the couch and planned to enjoy an evening of television when she heard a knock on the door. Getting off the couch, she went to the door to find Davio standing there with a large pizza and a six pack of beer.

  “I know you want to rest, but you still have to eat,” he said. “I took the liberty of getting us a pizza and some beer, hoping that you will allow me to spend the evening with you.”

  Ashley fretted that she looked a mess, her apartment was in disarray, and she wasn’t exactly prepared for entertain
ment.

  “I don’t care how you look, or how your apartment looks. I just needed to see you. The crash could have killed you and I am just thankful that you are able to stand there and argue with me,” he said.

  Why should Ashley expect Davio to cooperate with her? He was, after all, used to getting anything he wanted. She stood back and allowed him to enter her apartment. She instructed him to put the pizza on the coffee table while she grabbed a couple of plates. When she returned she discovered that Davio had already opened a beer for her and set it beside the pizza box. He took the plates and dug out each of them a piece of pizza. Ashley had to admit, the pizza and beer hit the spot. She was feeling better already.

  Davio was secretly hoping for more than beer and pizza. Ashley was slowly working her way into his heart and it had been a long time since making love to her in Florida. He had never felt this way about a woman before, but Ashley was important to him and he wanted to keep her close to him. He couldn’t blame her if she wanted to run. Since meeting him she had been raped, and lived through a plane crash.

  Ashley was have similar feelings as Davio. She knew that he was more to her than just her employer, but she feared he was out of her league. He was wealthy and handsome, and she was sure he could have any woman he wanted. She was nothing more than an up and coming interior designer who had to work for a living, and didn’t have a lot to offer to a relationship. She feared that once her work was complete, she would never see Davio again. The thought of that sent pains through her chest.

  Davio reached over and put his arm around her, pulling her close to him. He couldn’t get enough of this woman and right now he needed to feel her naked beneath him. He leaned down and kissed her, hoping that she would respond in kind.

  In spite of her misgivings, Ashley could not resist Davio. She craved him like a body craves air to breathe. She returned his kiss like a woman starving. She was briefly aware of him undoing the buttons of her robe, knowing that she didn’t have anything on under it except a pair of panties. She felt his hands find her taunt breasts and she knew that her nipples were already hardened, begging for his touch. She threw her head back against the back of the couch and allowed Davio to claim her body. She didn’t care what he did, as long as he didn’t stop. She felt the heat of his mouth as it claimed one of her breasts, gently sucking, causing desire to spread through her loins. She watched as he slowly removed her panties, allowing his hands access to her nakedness.

  “Why don’t we move to the bed where we will have plenty of room,” she whispered.

  Davio stood and waited for her to lead him in the direction of the bedroom. As soon as she stretched out on the bed Davio stood and took in her naked beauty. He quickly removed his clothes, freeing his already engorged manhood. He wanted this woman. He wanted to explore every inch of her body before finally burying his manhood deep inside her. He took her legs and gently placed them over his shoulders, spreading her open to his view. He looked at her in her most private place, watching her body react to his. He gently lifted her hips so that his mouth had access to her moist womanhood. He watched as she closed her eyes when his mouth took her clitoris, biting and sucking it, causing her to feel pleasure streak through her body. He knew that she was enjoying it. He marveled at how much she had changed since that first time they made love. Now she was a woman who enjoyed the pleasures of a man.

  Ashley was thoroughly enjoying what Davio was doing to her body. At one time she would have been shy, feeling exposed to his eyes, but now all she felt was desire and passion. She loved the feel of his mouth on her most private parts. She felt nothing but passion and pleasure while his mouth brought her to the very brink of desire. She heard herself begging for more, begging him to fill her full with his huge manhood. She opened her eyes and watched as he placed his manhood at the opening of her hot canal. Her eyes met his as she felt him plunge deep inside. This is what she wanted. She wanted to feel him deep inside her, giving her the pleasure she desired. Their eyes were locked on each other when he started moving in and out of her, causing her body to feel the waves of pleasure that only he could bring.

  Davio started out slowly, moving in and out, trying to heighten her desire. He wanted to give her as much pleasure as he could. He teased her by pulling out, then pushing back into her. She could feel every inch of him as he moved in and out, in and out, until the pressure started to build. She looked at him with her eyes, pleading with him to give her more. He increased his speed, watching her face as the pleasure spread through her body. He took his finger and started massaging her clitoris while moving his manhood in and out of her body.

  Ashley didn’t know how much more she could stand. Her entire body was on fire, waiting for Davio to fan the flames to the point of no return. She felt him take his fingers and pinch her clitoris while he increased his speed. Finally she was standing there on that cliff, waiting to jump off. Davio increased the pressure on her clitoris while he pounded fast and hard, taking both of them off the cliff together. Ashely screamed as her body burst into a thousand flames of pleasure. She felt herself convulse around Davio, holding him fast inside her until he finally filled her with his hot seed.

  Chapter 3

  It was time to get back to work, and Ashley was ready to tackle the kitchen at Davio’s place. She had waited until she got a little practice under her belt before taking on the biggest project in the house. She wanted to give Davio a chef’s kitchen that anybody would be proud of. It was a project that would take her several weeks to complete. She smiled as she remembered Davio coming to her place with pizza. The night ended surprisingly well. She loved giving herself to Davio. He knew exactly how to make her body sing. She didn’t think she would ever tire of the passion her brought to her. When she had met him she had been a shy virgin, guarding her virtue, never allowing another person a chance to look at her. Now she couldn’t wait to feel Davio between her legs, pushing his huge manhood deep inside her.

  Ashley arrived at Davio’s place a little past 8 a.m. She was confident that she was ready to take on the kitchen. She had already been sketching out the design, carefully planning where she was going to place the refrigerator, stove, and sink. All of the cabinets were going to be replaced with cabinets that were more modern and better suited Davio’s tastes. She took a minute to stick her head in his office and say hello before she proceeded to the kitchen.

  “It is good to see you ready to get back to work,” he said. “I feared that you might be afraid to spend much time with me, considering what all has happened since you first started.”

  “I am more than ready to get back to work. I doubt that you could do anything to run me off at this point. After all, I have become a survivor,” she said. “Besides, I have been looking forward to the kitchen.”

  Ashley didn’t waste any time getting to work. She was basically prepared for the new kitchen layout, but she needed to decide what colors she was going to use, and what kind of cabinets she wanted. There would be a lot of shopping for the kitchen, and she couldn’t wait to get started. It was fun to get to go shopping and not have to worry about money. She contacted a destruction crew and told them she was ready for them to get started tearing out the cabinets.

  While the crew was working on literally destroying the kitchen, Ashley took her pad and went shopping. She picked out a dark quartz counter top with a mixed gray glass tile backsplash. For cabinets she decided to go with all white. The kitchen island would be dark in contrast to the light cabinets on the wall. The island would feature a large farm sink and plenty of workspace for food prep. She wondered exactly who would get to use the kitchen after it was complete. She knew that Davio did not do a lot of cooking, and the kitchen she was designing was meant to be used. Perhaps one day Davio would allow her to cook for him. She would love to be turned loose in a kitchen like this. She had always been one to cook for herself rather than going out to eat. For one thing, she had never hand to money to eat out much, and she didn’t like to eat out alone.

&n
bsp; For the kitchen floor Ashley chose a lighter shade of gray tile that looked like wood. She chose tile for the flooring because she knew having wood in the kitchen was not a wise choice. Spills and moisture would soon ruin hardwood. The tile she chose was a perfect accent to the counter tops and backsplash. She picked out appliances of stainless steel and went to settle up with the cashier. She gave them the address where her purchases were to be delivered, and was on her way. She couldn’t wait to see how the kitchen would come together. When she got back to the house she found Davio in the sitting room pacing.

  “What are you doing in here,” she asked.

  “All of this noise is driving me crazy,” he answered. “I know it is necessary, but I just need to get out of here for a while. Do you want to go for a ride and get some lunch while we are out?”

  Ashley knew she should decline. There was still a lot of work to be done, but saying no to Davio was not something she did easily. She went to check on the progress in the kitchen, and told the crew that she was leaving for a few hours. She encouraged them to get as much done as possible while they were away.
