‘What’s that all about?’ exclaimed Lexi. ‘Do people usually order individual glasses of wine at a restaurant?’
‘Seems so Lex, we’re such lushes.’
The waitress returned with our two bottles and poured us each a glass and took our order. I sighed as I took a good glug of mine.
‘You ok, Mia?’
‘I am now,’ I nodded. ‘I love him so much Lex, but it’s just been so intense this last two weeks. This is just what I needed to take the edge off and I can return refreshed and recharged. So I’ve spoken to Cindy at Pepper’s and we’re on, every Wednesday morning at ten for two hours.’
‘Mia, I told you I don’t think it’s for me. I can dance, but I’m not all sexy like you. I’d be arms and legs everywhere, I’d look like an ice skating tarantula.’
‘You really won’t do it? You could always come and watch even if you aren’t taking part.’
‘It’s bad enough listening to the two of you at it, I don’t need images of you grinding in his lap half naked, thanks. Would you mind going on your own? I’m so behind I’ve decided Wednesday morning and nights are going to be dedicated study times.’
‘Of course I don’t mind.’ I swirled my wine around my glass and drained it and poured another one and looked at her, taking a deep breath. ‘Lex, I need to talk to you about something and I don’t want you to freak out, ok?’
‘Fuck, you aren’t pregnant too?’ She looked at me mortified.
‘No. Getting pregnant is a whole other issue I need to talk to you about. It’s about Gabe and I.’
‘God, you’ve got engaged ... you’ve got married.’ Her eyes were wide and her mouth ajar and I shook my head.
‘No, will you let me just talk to you and maybe I can tell you.’
‘You know I can’t deal with all of this tension, cut to the chase.’
‘We want to live together Lexi, but not at his place and ...’
‘You’re moving away? Into a new place?’ she cut in again, stopping me mid flow looking hurt.
‘Yes, but not exactly moving away as such ...’
‘Are you asking me to move out so he can move in?’
‘LEXI, will you let me finish, please,’ I snapped. ‘No, you aren’t going anywhere. He’s purchased the apartment next door.’
‘Seriously?’
‘Yes, it’s being gutted and remodelled and when it’s done I’ll move over there. That way I’m with him, but close to you and can move between the two apartments when needed. He’ll pay all the bills on his, I’ll carry on paying ours, so I’m no worse off and neither are you. Is that ok with you?’
‘Of course it is, Mia,’ she said with a big sigh of relief. ‘I was panicking thinking you were moving away to another part of the city, I’d have hated that. Moving next door’s bloody brilliant. Especially as I won’t have to hear all your sex noises.’
‘You really mean it?’
‘Yeah, I mean you’re damn noisy with all the screaming and groaning and the “give it to me big boy” yells.’
‘The move, not the sex noises, and when have I ever shouted “give it to me big boy” Lex?’ I laughed.
‘Well I try to block it out so my ears get a bit muffled, but I hear you shouting all right,’ she chuckled.
‘Not “give it to me big boy” I don’t, I’m not a porn star,’ I replied with a shake of my head. ‘So you’re really ok with the move?’
‘Yeah, of course. We’re still accessible to each other and you get to keep Mr. Control Freak happy knowing you aren’t roaming the city alone after a visit.’
‘I’d be happy to swap bedrooms once I’ve moved. You can have the bigger one next to the bathroom.’
‘Mia, I’m living with you rent and bill free. I’m fine in my room, besides it’s done out to my taste anyway. You telling your mum?’
‘Christ no. If she comes to stay, as far as she’s concerned I’m just spending the night with Gabe. She’d flip out if she knew.’
‘I can’t believe you aren’t. I know I suggested it, but it’s quick, for you anyway. You guys are going so quickly.’
‘I know, but I hate not being with him at night, sex or no sex, and it’s not like I’ve made any financial commitment. If it all goes tits up, I move back in with you. It’s not like we’ve just purchased a house together is it?’
‘You see it going tits up? I see you marrying this guy.’
I choked on my wine and she had to whack my back and I was glad when our main courses arrived so I could divert the conversation to her and Doug. We’d finished our wine by the time we’d finished our main course, so I ordered a double Archers and lemonade and Lexi a bottle of beer and we each went for cheesecake for dessert and rounded it off with another set of drinks much to our waitresses delight. I filled Lexi in on my appointment on Friday and about how relieved I was that I could leave things for a year and worry then.
It was four by the time we left the restaurant and both of us were a bit inebriated. I was giggling at everything and had to concentrate on walking in a straight line, while Lexi hung onto my arm for dear life and engaged in her favourite past time of “cock spotting” where she’d ogle men’s crotches and shout out a score out of ten and then give me a running commentary on how she imagined each would look naked. After a particularly portly guy waddled past and she shouted ‘Two’ and muttered ‘Hairy Chipolata’ I had to let go of her and sit on the floor as I cried with laughter. She pulled me up and we did some new silly passport photos of the two of us for our notice boards and I went into a stationers and got some supplies for Uni and for a project to keep Gabe occupied, before we found a taxi rank outside. I sent him a text while we were waiting.
Hello sexy boy, are you behaving? I’ve missed you. I’ve missed not having your cock in my mouth today. I have Gabe withdrawal :-( I’m coming home and I expect you to be ready for me <3 xxx PS It’s your Mia and I love you big boy xxx
‘We need more booze Lexi, we need to stop at an off licence.’
‘There’s a bloody cellar full of wine in that house.’
‘Noooo, that’s his dads. We’d get in so much trouble. I need beers and zinfandel.’
‘You pay, I’ll carry.’
‘Deal.’
We giggled our way into a taxi and I gave him Gabe’s address and Lexi instructed him to the local off licence she’d been to with Doug. I felt my phone vibrate and focussed my eyes to read my text.
Mia Page are you drunk? You always call me sexy boy when you’re drunk and you text the word “cock” instead of penis like normal. Plus I know it’s you texting me without you telling me baby. I’ve Mia withdrawal too. See you soon. Your G xxx
Dear Mr. A. Yes Sir I’m guilty as charged. I want your big hard beautiful cock in my mouth when I get back, so you’d better be ready in that bedroom or we’ll be having words. I’m in charge girl today, so there. Good day to you Sir. Your M xx
We grabbed a twelve pack of beer and a four bottles of wine and giggled our way up the gravel drive after the taxi dropped us off. I tried opening the door, but had the wrong key in the lock and focussed on trying each one with no success and started again.
‘Lex. LEX. I have to go and attend to Gabe’s penis for a while, you ok to settle in and see you in the lounge later?’
‘You could’ve just said you were going for a sleep. I don’t need to know about his penis.’
‘Well that makes a change, you were obsessed with it the other week. It must be l.o.v.e., loooovvvee with Doug.’
‘Sod off,’ she chuckled with a shove that nearly knocked me into the box hedge by the front door. She shot out a hand to grab me with as I screamed with laughter. ‘I’m focussing on Doug’s cock now, I’ve moved on from my wildly inappropriate desire to see Gabe’s and I don’t need to know about it.’
O but Lex you should, it’s a gorgeous one. Very big and thick and it’s always hard. I’ve constant face ache at the moment and I swear I have cracks at the corner of my mouth where he’s stretch
ed me, look, I have cock lines,’ I giggled as I pointed to my mouth.
‘Stop fucking rubbing it in. O Lex, he’s so romantic, O Lex, he’s so big and hard, O Lex, the sex is so good, I love him so much, O Lex …’
‘Do you two ever check who’s standing in a doorway before you talk about sex?’ asked Gabe, as he stood with the front door wide open, both eyebrows raised as we turned sheepishly to face him.
‘Hello sexy boy, how long have you been standing there?’ I giggled.
‘Since you tried a key in the door for the fourth time, screamed, then gave up and started talking about cocks. Good time out then?’
‘Excellent,’ replied Lexi. ‘I’ll leave you two alone to do whatever you’re going to do with his ... well … you know what. Can’t wait until you move into your own place.’ She headed to the lounge and I stood on the door step smiling at him, swayed and grabbed the door frame.
‘Baby, you’re very drunk,’ he sighed.
‘Not very, just a little bit drunk,’ I indicated how much with my finger and thumb as I squinted at them. ‘I missed you. You look very sexy in your jeans and that blue t-shirt. Are you ready for me?’
‘Always Mia, but first you’re coming to the kitchen and drinking some water. Come on, get in.’
‘Can I kiss you first?’
‘Yes, but watch the arm and ribs.’ He held out his hand and helped me over the doorstep, closed the door and leaned back on it and pulled me into his left hand side. I put my right arm around his back and into his jeans pocket and held his face as I kissed him and moaned softly. We carried on for a few minutes and I pulled away all glassy eyed. ‘Hmmm, Mia, you kiss so good.’
‘No, you kiss so good. I love you Gabe, have I told you that I love you?’
‘Yes baby, but I love hearing it.’
‘Are you ready for me yet? I want you,’ I nestled my head on his chest and he squeezed me tightly to him.
‘Of course I am, but I don’t want to give you more face ache or premature cock wrinkles,’ he laughed, before turning serious. ‘It is really becoming a chore?’
‘NO. My cheeks ache, but I love doing it. I love seeing your face, you’re so cute and you’re totally mine when you come. I love that.’
‘You couldn’t come up with a more manly word than cute?’
‘But you are cute, you’re cute and mine when I suck you and you come in my mouth.’
‘I may not be able to see you but I can still hear you,’ yelled Lexi from the lounge, making me giggle.
‘I feel that way about you too Mia, but I’m totally yours all the time. Even when you’re drunk so come on, water.’ He took my hand and led me to the kitchen, sat me down on the bar stool and poured me some and made me drink the whole glass, then poured another and insisted I go upstairs for a rest. He supervised as he instructed me to take off my shorts and tights and laughed as I kept falling backwards on the bed, giggling every time I took one foot off the floor to try and pull them off. ‘Mia, we’ll be here all day. Lie on the bed and lift your feet up and I’ll pull them off for you, he ordered. I collapsed on it and lifted my legs straight up in the air.
‘Ok sex machine, my legs are a go.’
‘O God, Mia,’ he groaned as he tugged them off with his left hand. ‘That thong’s not covering anything. Are you trying to torture me?’
‘You torture me every day with your multiple erections, so don’t be telling me and my vagina off. Can I put my legs down now?’
‘Yes please, and do it quickly and get your top off and into bed,’ he ordered. I sat back up and undid my wrap top and pulled off my vest.
‘You’re looking at me with lustful eyes, Gabe Austin. Come here.’ I tugged him to me by the jeans and undid his buttons and slid them down to his ankles, then stroked his hard on through his boxers.
‘Mia, behave,’ he sighed.
‘Don’t want to behave, want to play.’ I slipped my fingers in his tight boxers and pulled them down as well and grinned as he sprung loose above me.
‘God Mia, what are you doing?’
‘I want you. Hold onto the end of the bed big boy.’ I heard him groan and looked up. ‘Are you in pain, should I stop?’
‘I’m fine, don’t stop now baby,’ he said gruffly. I smiled and cupped his balls with my palm and gently squeezed until he moaned and his eyes went dark. I kissed each of them and ran my tongue over them and slowly up his shaft. He held onto the bed footer and tightened his grip as I enveloped him with my mouth.
‘Hmmm, you taste so good,’ I murmured, happy he seemed to have gotten over his not taking advantage of me when I was drunk phase. ‘Hmmmmmmmm.’
‘O God Mia, don’t make noises like that, I’d like it to last this time instead of a ten second … fuck … you’re too good at this baby,’ he groaned half closing his eyes. I caressed his balls and perineum with one hand as I gripped him by the root, hollowed my cheeks and thrust my tongue as I slid up and down and enjoyed listening to the groans he was making and closed my eyes. ‘Don’t close them baby ... o God, don’t close them … I want to see them as I come.’ I opened them and looked up at him through my overgrown fringe and felt him swell in my mouth. ‘Mia … you look so hot doing that … o God Mia … I love you baby,’ he groaned as he pulsated and filled my mouth with scorching come multiple times. He’d shut his eyes, trying to take shallow breaths and let go of the footer clutching his ribs and I pulled back immediately.
‘Gabe, have I hurt you?’ I uttered.
‘No baby, I’m fine, honestly I’m fine. You’re so good at that, seeing you with my cock in your mouth, is a great form of painkiller,’ he smiled and let go of his ribs and stroked my hair and cheek. I closed my eyes and put my forehead on his hard toned stomach.
‘I miss you so much, I’m finding this really hard,’ I whispered.
‘I know, I feel the same, but we’re going to make up for lost time soon, I promise. Let me do something for you.’
‘I’m ok.’
‘Don’t lie Mia, you’ve turned on face, you need to come as well.’
‘I’ll be fine, right now I’m tired. Can I sleep for a while?’
‘Sure baby, get into bed.’ I helped him pull up his boxers and jeans, then took off my bra and climbed in and curled up into a little ball. He came and sat on the edge of the bed and reached out and buried his fingers in my hair, his thumb stroking my cheek.
‘Alcohol makes me very tired, Gabe,’ I sighed.
‘Alcohol and looking after me. I’m sorry it’s so hard for you.’
‘Looking after you is my duty, Gabe.’
‘There’s no duty, Mia. I’m not a Dom and you’re not my sub. We’re an equal partnership in and out of bed.’
‘I love looking after you, you’re my man and don’t you forget it,’ I said with a big yawn.
‘And you’re my girl, don’t you forget it. Sleep baby, your eyes keep closing. Have a good sleep and I’ll go and get Lexi to help me do some dinner for us all. I can’t bend down to kiss you, but I would if I could.’
I nodded, closed my eyes and heard a kiss and then felt his fingers on my lips, I kissed them back and drifted off as he continued to caress my cheek.
I woke up all warm and cosy. I felt better for a few hours rest, I hadn’t had a decent night’s sleep in over ten days. I woke myself up with a hot shower and ran my fingers over my scars, which were small, but still an angry red colour. The one in my navel meant I’d had to ditch my belly button piercing for now, then there were two low on my pelvic line over my hips. One of them was just to the side of my heart tattoo and I wondered if they’d deliberately avoided cutting into it. I pulled on my yoga pants and new red jumper and padded downstairs and went into the kitchen.
‘You’re up,’ he smiled. ‘Did you sleep?’
‘Yes, like a log. It smells good in here. What are you doing?’
‘Making a chilli for the four of us. Lexi put everything in the saucepan for me. She’s in the games room with Doug on the Xbox again, she
’s determined to beat him. It’s nearly ready, but I can’t drain the rice one handed.’
‘I’ll do it and I’ll set the table too.’
‘Nice jumper, you look good in red,’ he smiled. I gave him a loving kiss and squeezed his bottom, set the table and called Lexi and Doug in, then helped Gabe drain and plate up. The four of us enjoyed dinner with just the one bottle of wine, which I passed on. I filled up my glass with water and saw Gabe smile at me. I ate one handed with my other on his thigh and gave it a squeeze as I stood up to clear our plates. We decided on Star Trek Into Darkness as our movie of choice and Lexi and I took down a mini tub of B&J’s and a small bar of chocolate. Lexi beat me to the back row and pulled out her tongue.
‘Gabe, will it hurt you if I curl up and put my head in your lap?’ I asked.
‘I don’t think so, it’s standing, sitting and deep breaths that hurt. Try it.’
I lay down, tucked my legs up and put my head down and he smiled at me. It was nice to feel some body contact with him, even it was just my cheek on his thigh. He put his arm around me and I grabbed his hand and peppered it with kisses, until he ran his finger along my lips, then put it up my jumper and stroked my stomach. He only stopped when he needed a drink. I giggled every time I heard Lexi and Doug sucking each other’s faces off and wondered if that was what Gabe and I sounded like.
‘I want to watch this Alan Partridge one. You two up for it?’ asked Lexi as Star Trek ended.
‘I better pass, sorry Lex,’ replied Gabe. ‘All that laughing’s going to hurt my ribs too much and I’m pretty tired. I think I’ll head up to bed if you don’t mind. Stay and enjoy it Mia, you laughed so much last time.’
‘No, it’s ok.’ I signalled with my eyes to Lexi and Doug kissing again on the back row and he smiled. ‘I’m really tired too Gabe, and you’ll need a hand undressing. Sorry to leave you guys, enjoy the film if you can stop kissing long enough to watch it.’ I smiled at them as they broke apart looking embarrassed. ‘Lex, don’t forget we’re studying in the morning, we need to leave at nine-thirty.’
‘Eh?’ she asked looking confused.
