When he could remember what the unusual feeling was that he was lying on her still his face buried in the crook of her neck, he knew he had to move. One of her hands was rubbing his back softly and the other in his hair. He lifted up slightly and looked down at her.
“Are you okay?” he asked softly as he kissed her on the nose as he started to move off of her. He looked at her and saw the change in her eyes in the low light of the room.
“Fine.” She said with a soft smile.
“How long was I out?” he asked as he began to move. He saw the slight wince from her, and he knew that she would be sore. Though he wanted to be super gentle with her, there was nothing he could do to erase all the pain she would feel. He was not an expert with virgins. He avoided the idea as he did most things. His first experience had not been great, and t

A few hours after the darkness of the room took over, she woke up fast as the hand on her front moved, and she became startled. She remembered everything that happened in the past few hours, and she couldn’t believe that she did that. She took the reins away and led him into the shower, which led them to be in bed together. The idea would have never normally crossed her mind to move forward so quickly, even with her infatuation of him from years prior. It was all almost too much to handle for her brain. She was trying to piece the reasons why she acted like that, and she couldn’t fit the pieces together. She shook her head on the pillow as she tried to find the answers.She heard him chuckle behind her. She turned to face him. His lazy grin was something she would have thought was something she could have seen in some dream she had of him. It was not something she t

The next day moved quickly for the both of them. Though they worked together in the morning to which they had arrived later than he normally did. It seemed like any other day between them. Max was reading his cues from how Deanna was acting. If she wanted to act like nothing was different between them while they were at work, that was fine with him. He knew his professional integrity was thrown out the window when it came to her.Everything had changed for him, and he knew it as well. After the shower, they both needed. He wrapped her up in his arms and watched as she fell back asleep. He didn’t know how much he needed her there with him. It had been a drive since she walked into the office a few days before. He now understood more about the way he wanted her. It wasn’t sex that he wanted. He wanted more. He understood that last night as he thought about the act the

Max waited there for some time, just holding her close on his lap. He was whispering words of love and encouragement to her as she began to reawaken though she had not really fallen asleep against him. Though he could tell when he was back to being herself. She began to rebutton her shirt and look around for some way to clean herself up after he moved her off of him.“Now, are you going to tell me what brought that on?” he asked softly in her ear.“I don’t know what you are talking about.” Deanna simply stated as she tried to move off of him, but his grip was still on her hips as he moved, so she had nowhere to go, and she had to look at him.“I am not complaining, my dear. However, this wasn’t exactly something you would have done a few hours ago. So what happened?” he said with a

Max watched her as she moved throughout the store. She was self-assured and knew how to shop better than he did. Though he normally ate something from a fast food place or some kind of take out, he didn’t do this food shopping thing very often. For her, he would brave the store and repeat what she wanted him to do. He started to realize the power the small female in front of him already had over him when she turned back to him and smiled as she placed something in the cart.He had been arguing with her about who was going to pay for everything so she could get whatever she wanted. She was still a little worn out from the session in the office so she could be verbally worn down even easier than he expected. He took advantage of that as well. He wanted to get home so they could eat, and he could call to see what was going on with his parents.When s

After one of the best dinners, he could remember having he helped her clean up the kitchen, and then she threw off her clothes as they went to the bathroom and the steaming shower that awaited them. Max was not like her when it came to keeping the floors free from clothes. He didn’t throw them in the basket he had. He just left them in a pile and then kicked them into the corner, so he knew he had to wash them. His suit jacket never made it to the room. He hung those up in the front of the house upon arriving home. He had trained himself on those just like he had when he was a beat cop and only had two uniforms. He didn’t miss those days.Deanna was already under the water when he managed to pull back the shower door. He still almost was surprised there was a small woman in under the hot water before him. He smiled down

The next two days were nothing more than packing and moving boxes back and forth between her apartment and the house they both shared now. The entire day of Thursday was spent together as he took her into the office, and they did his office hours while cleaning up the office a bit more. Now there were no papers and stacks of books all over the floor. It had begun to really look like an office now.She had used some of the boxes in the storage room to label and place every section of his course. It was all completely organized now, and he would be able to find everything much easier. Max was in awe of how quickly and easily she had tackled the entire mess that had taken him a few years to make.The rest of the day, he helped her box up everything and judge exactly what he needed to do to move the rest of the furniture. He had already called a few of his

“where do you want to go to dinner?” he asked as he was driving back towards where they had to go to check in with his parents. Though things had gotten done in his absence and he really wanted to have minimal contact with them and everything going on around them. He felt he had to go at least check on them. During the past few days, he called to make sure everything was okay for them and what step they were on to regain their lives from the control of his brother.His father had open heart surgery the day prior. The simple catch that she had found set his recovery back a few days when they realized that the damage done with the first attack on his heart was much worse than they had hoped. When he had come in as well, the results of the blood work had not been passed on to the doctor. Deanna’s quick thinking had saved the man, and her calling out the doctor ha

Deanna stood straight and didn’t let the woman who was staring at her make her feel anything other than the slight fear that racked through her. Max placed his hand on her back and waited for her to make her move. He knew without thinking about it that he would back her up no matter what she chose to do. The exit was within sight. She could choose to do whatever she wanted. It was one way or another.The group all looked up as they saw their mother and father, and then they turned as one to look and see Deanna standing there as well. Her mother sighed and then walked slowly toward her youngest daughter. She was looking the younger version of herself up and down as she moved closer. When her eyes flashed to Max standing by Deanna’s side, she grimaced slightly.“What are you doing here, Deanna?” her
