Beautiful Sky

by Ashley Blake

  “Ryan is a kiss ass and is really annoying. He’s probably a nice kid but he thinks he’s cooler than he actually is. He went on and on about how many girls on campus want him and he just comes off as a douche bag.” He waved his hand in the air to dismiss the subject. “Anyway, back to you. I’m glad you came down.”

  I felt totally shy when he said that, his eyes holding a hint of a smile. After all that we had been through so far, I still felt shy around him. Maybe if he wasn’t so gorgeous and so nice I would feel less shy, but the shyness was there and so were the butterflies. So what do I do when I’m shy like that? I try to change the subject. As I looked around his room I noticed there was only one bed. Perfect, I’ll ask about that.

  “Jonathan, you were able to get a single? How in the world were you able to pull that off?” Oh wait, he’s the R.A., of course he has his own room, he already told me that. Dumb question Skylar.

  He had a tiny smirk playing at the corner of his mouth as his gaze held mine. “Really Skylar? Is that what you want to talk about?”

  He crossed his arms, waiting for my response. No, it’s not really what I wanted to talk about, I wanted to talk about how perfect he was and how perfect I thought we would be together. I could have stood there all night just looking at him but I did kind of want to head over to the student union for a snack.

  I glanced at him. “No, that’s not what I want to talk about.”

  He took a step toward me and I could barely breathe. He studied me and stood there, silent, and I began to shift back and forth, becoming extremely uncomfortable under his gaze. Then after what felt like an eternity, he finally said something. He narrowed his eyes a bit as he looked me, seemingly trying to figure me out.

  “Let’s go grab a bite, what do you say?”

  He was so damned sexy and I didn’t realize I had been holding my breath until a loud hiss of air escaped my lungs and Jonathan turned up an eyebrow at me.

  “Are you okay?”

  Totally embarrassed I sheepishly nodded my head.

  He leaned in and gave me a soft, lingering kiss and I wanted so much more.

  “Good. Ready to go?” He took a couple of steps toward the door.

  My head was saying yes and my mouth had a mind of it’s own, and I was completely mortified when the next words came tumbling out of my mouth.

  “That was a really delicious kiss.” As soon as the words came out, I could feel my cheeks burning with fire. Did I really just say that out loud?

  I could see the look in his eyes shift and what I saw was pure desire.

  “Delicious kiss, huh?” He was leaning against his desk now and his gaze was pure seduction as his eyes searched mine.

  I felt butterflies flitting around in my belly as I returned his seductive gaze. It was as if all of my morals had flown out the window the moment I met Jonathan Hunter. I had only had one real boyfriend so I didn’t sleep around like so many girls in my high school did. Never in my life had I ever wanted a guy so badly, so soon. I thought I was really into Seth, but what I felt for him was nothing compared to what I was feeling for Jonathan. I was so physically drawn to him that I would probably do whatever he asked me to do in the bedroom. That’s how into him I was. My body wanted him and my head was not trying to fight it.

  “Earth to Sky.”

  I snapped back to reality and I realized that I had been standing there with what must have been a really silly look on my face, and I could feel the warmth of my cheeks as they most likely burned crimson red.

  “Oh, sorry. What was I saying?”

  Jonathan slowly walked over to me and stood less than a foot away and tipped my chin up with his finger so that our eyes locked. You are so beautiful. I felt like that teenager you see in the movies who is obsessed with a celebrity, except Jonathan wasn’t a celebrity, at least not yet. My skin tingled under my chin where our flesh met and I wanted to feel his touch all over my body.

  “You were saying that the kiss was delicious.” His eyes roamed over my hair and my face and settled on my lips. He leaned down and gently touched his lips to mine in a soft peck. He pulled back and I could see something in his eyes and it wasn’t lust, there was a look of caring behind his intense gaze.

  “I just had to do that, you look so beautiful Sky.”

  There were those pesky butterflies again, ravaging my belly. Feeling shy and not knowing what to say was a bad combination for me because anything was likely to come flying out of my mouth.

  I touched my hands to my face and hair. “Beautiful? I barely have on any makeup and I’m sure my hair looks a mess because I forgot to run a brush through it while I was waiting for you upstairs and then it was getting late and you didn’t show up so I was kind of annoyed and I just came down here without checking myself in the mirror. I’m sure I look a mess. Beautiful? I don’t think so.”

  He looked at me with amusement as I rambled on which was something I tended to do whenever I was uncomfortable or embarrassed.

  “Yes, beautiful. You look perfect.” I saw a sparkle in his eye and it made my belly flip again. His eyes perused my body and slowly made their way back up to mine and I could see that the sparkle in his eye had turned to pure lust. I knew that look and I was sure that same look was reflected in my eyes.

  I instinctively took a step back from him as he moved toward me.

  “Trying to get away from me Sky?” Seduction was written all over his face.

  I gave him a small, cautious smile. “No, of course not, but I think we should probably get going before it gets too late. I have an 8:00 class tomorrow morning.”

  He reached out and pulled me close to him, his arms wrapping tightly around my waist. “I think we’ve had a change of plans, I don’t want to share you with anyone else tonight. I just want it to be you and me. I don’t know what it is about you Sky, but you draw me in and I don’t want to be let out.”

  Well, how could I resist that? He was saying exactly what I wanted to hear and I wanted to be with just him too, no interruptions and no other noise, just us two. I didn’t back away when he leaned in to kiss me and this kiss was different. Something had shifted between us when I finally found out that nothing was going on with him and Barbi. I had let my guard down and I allowed myself to feel for him and I allowed myself to stop running from what I was feeling.

  His lips were soft and searching at first and then they were hungry, greedy for me, as his grip tightened and he pulled me even closer. His hands roamed down over the round curves of my ass as he pressed his pelvis into mine. I could feel his erection pressed against me and I wanted to wrap my legs around him to feel his throbbing against my warm core.

  He walked me over to the bed as he buried his hands in my long brown waves, his tongue sliding up my neck, and he slowly fell back onto his bed with me on top of him. He quickly turned us over, him now on top, and I felt the amazing weight of him on me. I loved the feeling of having him on top of me, I felt so safe and protected. His hands explored my body everywhere, sliding under my shirt and reaching beneath me to quickly unhook my bra, and then sliding back around to gently rub and flick my nipples. I started to move and moan softly as waves of pleasure began to engulf me.

  “You drive me crazy, you know that?” His rich, deep voice purred in my ear.

  I held his face in my hands and looked in his eyes. “The feeling is mutual.”

  His mouth came crushing down on mine and I arched my body toward him as he cupped my breasts in each hand, running his tongue over my lips. I let out a soft sigh as his hands found the bottom of my shirt and lifted it off over my head. I slid my arms out of my bra and gently raked my fingers through his thick hair. The cool air clashed against my hot skin as Jonathan ran his tongue around my belly button and then up my stomach to capture my nipple with his mouth. One hand slid down between my legs and I opened them for him, his fingers finding my warm core. I began to slowly writhe around on the bed and I felt my body tense up as a choked cry escaped my lips.

  Being with
him in that moment just felt right, the way things were supposed to be. I didn’t feel shy with him because he seemed to love every inch of my body as his hands and tongue explored me.

  “Let me take these off.” His voice was pure sex.

  He slowly slid my panties off of me, his fingers gently trailing along my skin as he did so. As he slid his hands back up my legs, his tongue followed along the trail up to my inner thigh, stopping to kiss the sensitive skin there. My breathing was heavy as my body was engulfed in pure ecstasy. Fooling around had never felt so good and I didn’t want him to stop. I unabashedly spread my legs wide giving him permission to devour me with his tongue. I nearly came right then with the first stroke of his tongue, I thought it was going to send me over the edge. My body was tingling with pleasure as Jonathan’s skilled tongue delved into my most sensitive spots. My hands were buried deep in his hair as I was entangled in the throws of pleasure and as the soft moans escaped my lips I knew that no one else would ever be able to make feel that way again. As Jonathan’s tongue stroked my most intimate place, waves of pleasure began to build and then he repeatedly flicked my bud with his tongue and I couldn’t hold back any longer. My body erupted in an orgasm so strong I nearly fell off of his small bed.

  I lay there panting, trying to catch my breath and I looked over at him and had a devilish grin on his face.

  “You look so sexy like that, Sky. I can’t wait to see the look on your face when I make love to you.”

  I gave him a seductive smile and reached out to pull him to me for a sensual kiss, our tongues sliding over each other.

  “You can see that look right now Jonathan.”

  He shocked me by pulling away and had a serious look on his face.

  “I want our first time together to be special Sky, you deserve that.”

  I was disappointed but also kind of happy because it showed me that Jonathan really cared about me. He could have had sex with me right then because, believe me, I was ready. I mean, this guy was so freakin’ hot I was ready to do whatever he wanted. I had never been with such a gorgeous, sexy guy ever and I couldn’t wait to have all of him.

  I couldn’t hide my disappointment and he must have seen it because he gently placed a finger under my chin and I raised my eyes to his.

  “It will be worth the wait, I promise.” He leaned down and gave me a soft peck on the tip of my nose.

  That kind of talk sent the butterflies fluttering like crazy in my belly and I was left tongue-tied once again. I was beginning to think that I would feel like this around him all the time. The chemistry between us was so strong that it freaked me out a little bit because I didn’t know that I could feel so strongly for another person.

  He had taken care of me but I could see through his jeans that he was fully erect so I wanted to take care of that for him.

  “Okay, we’ll wait, but we can still do other stuff, can’t we?” I looked at the obvious bulge in his jeans, and looked at him and raised my eyebrows.

  A slow grin spread across his face. “Yes, we can do other stuff, but today is just about you.”

  “But I want to make you feel good too, Jonathan.”

  He held my face in his hands as his eyes searched mine. “Just being around you makes me feel good Sky. I want to be inside of you the first time I experience that kind of pleasure with you.”

  I glanced down at his still firm bulge. “Isn’t that painful?”

  He gave me an amused smile. “I’ll be fine. I’m going to go to the bathroom and I’ll be right back.”

  I put my clothes back on and sat on his bed waiting for him to come back. It was getting late and I had an early class so when he came back to the room I would say goodnight and then go up to bed. He was taking kind of a long time so I walked around his room and looked at the picture he had on his desk. He had one picture of him, his parents, two women who had to be his sisters, an older woman and another couple and their children and they were all on a yacht. It was a stunning group of people and they all looked really happy and really rich. Must be nice.

  “That’s my family.” His deep voice caught me off guard and I spun around to face him.

  “I wasn’t snooping, I just wanted to take a quick look at the picture since it was on your desk and you were taking a while.”

  “Sorry about that, I had to take care of business.”

  I glanced down at his pants and could see that the bulge was gone. Oh! He took care of that in the bathroom, got it! Jonathan walked over to me and slipped his arm around my waist and picked up the picture.

  “These are my parents, which I’m sure you already knew, these are my beautiful sisters Claire and Abby, this is my Nana Bunny, this is my uncle Jake and Aunt Lauren and my cousins Emily and Jeremy. We took this picture on a trip to Croatia for my parents 20th wedding anniversary.”

  “Your family is so beautiful and they look so happy.”

  “Thanks, yeah, they’re a pretty happy bunch and really fun to be around.” He put the picture back down on his desk.

  “Jonathan, it’s getting late and I have an early class tomorrow so I better get up to bed. Thanks for an amazing night.”

  “You don’t have to leave Sky, I don’t have a roommate so you can stay with me. I’ll give you a t-shirt to sleep in. Will you please stay?”

  It was so hard to resist those gorgeous dark eyes that were begging me to stay.

  “I better go back to my room Jonathan, I won’t be able to control myself if I stay.”

  I couldn’t believe that I had let that slip out and I wanted to just die of embarrassment.

  “Being in control when you want to lose control makes things so much more interesting. I promise I won’t let anything happen. I just want to hold you in my arms all night and feel your body next to mine.”

  My belly flipped when he said that to me and that was what I wanted too. I didn’t want to leave him so I quickly changed into his shirt and crawled under his covers, full makeup and all. I was sitting up, waiting for him to join me. His eyes glazed over with lust, I saw it, and he quickly caught himself.

  “You look amazing in my t-shirt. Are you comfortable, can I get you anything?”

  “Can you set your alarm for 6:30? I can’t be late for class.”

  “Sure thing.” He walked over to the table next to the bed and set his alarm. He stood there for a minute and I really wanted to feel him next to me.

  “Thanks. Are you going to join me?”

  He turned off his light and slipped into bed behind me. My heart was thumping against my chest as I felt his warm hands slide down to my hips pulling me close to him. I wanted so badly to turn around and kiss him but I knew it would lead to more. His arm wrapped around my stomach, holding me close to him and I snuggled against him feeling his warm breath in my ear.

  “Are you comfortable, Sky?”

  “I’m perfect. I’m glad we stayed in tonight, Jonathan, I had a really good time with you.” My words were a whisper as my eyelids became heavy.

  He squeezed me tight. “Ditto.”

  I drifted off to sleep happier than I had been in a very long time.

  Chapter Thirteen

  The next morning Jonathan’s alarm startled me awake and at first I didn’t know where I was, but then I looked over at him and happiness swept over me.

  “Good morning, beautiful.” I don’t know how it was possible, but he was even more yummy in the morning with his hair tousled and his chiseled chest begging for me to touch it. I literally had to suck in air when my eyes fell on his gorgeous chest.

  I smiled at him. “Good morning.”

  He had a t-shirt on when he climbed into bed and he must have taken it off during the night. Let me just say that it’s a good thing I didn’t see that last night because there was no way I would have been able to control myself. His chest looked like it had been carved from stone and his muscles were so defined and perfect. Each muscle was more perfect than the next; he was an absolute specimen. I wanted to jump his bones rig
ht there but I didn’t have time so I climbed out of bed and quickly put on my clothes. I glanced at myself in the mirror and I was instantly horrifed. Could my mascara be any more smeared all over my face?

  I wiped away what I could and stood away from the bed so that Jonathan couldn’t see the mess so up close and personal.

  “I’ll see you later?” I was almost afraid to ask him but I wanted him to know that I expected that last night was the beginning of something between us.

  “Yes, of course. My last class is at 2:00 and then I have band practice at 4:30. Do you want to meet in the library at 8:15 and study together?”

  Of course I did! “Sure, sounds good. I’ll meet you by the circulation desk.”
