Holiday Hearts Chapter 23
"I'll be staying with you," he murmured.Her spine stiffened and she stared down at the floor of the tub. Damn, even his big feet were sexy. "I don't think so."Theo sighed. "I know things might - no, will - get awkward, but, Star, I can't leave you alone. If by some sick twist of fate this is real, and if you did change inside the house, you'd be so vulnerable - I couldn't have that on my conscience. Not as your former lover, not even as a family friend." Tenderly he rinsed the suds from her hair then picked up a bar of soap and began to wash her skin. Everywhere he touched, she felt as if she were on fire, and the wetness between her legs had nothing to do with the water.She wanted to argue, but he was right. Besides, nothing had ever felt quite so good as standing here with him. She even forgot all about the dull throb of her ankle. "Okay. Thank you."Then she made the mistake of looking up. He was staring down at her, his lids heavy, his lip caught between his teeth. Her hands

"You don't have to stay," Star said as she reached out and snagged another smaller towel to wrap around her hair. "Just call one of my sibs to come up.""Probably a good idea," he agreed. He wished - but no, nothing had changed between them. Even though the chemistry was still as strong as ever, their fundamental differences were just too big to overcome.Neither of them spoke as they finished drying off. After wrapping a towel around his waist, he turned to see Star tucking in the end of the one she'd tied sarong-style above her breasts, covering her to her hips. "Ready."She nodded and let him lift her into his arms. He carried her into the room he knew she shared with her sister and set her down on the big lower bunk. This was the bed they'd used when he'd spent stolen weekends here with Star. She hadn't been able to handle using her parents' bed for a lovers' tryst, so they'd used hers, even though it was really too small for someone Theo's size. His cock hardened again at the m

Theo helped her to her feet and wrapped an arm around her waist to take some of her weight as they walked out to the great room. "Funny, how we've known each other half our lives and yet - ""Never really talked much," she finished for him. Her voice was a little wistful as she continued. "Maybe we'd have been better off last summer if we'd talked more and spent less time - "He couldn't resist the pun - it was one of his greatest weaknesses. "Going at it like bunnies?"That earned him a shout of laughter and a punch in the arm. "Bad Theo. No lame rabbit jokes before dinner.""Well, I wasn't going to call you lame. Just a bit gimpy."She slugged him again then sat down across at the big oak table while Theo brought over bowls of soup and a box of saltines then poured coffee and sat down across from her. Watching her nose twitch as she inhaled the aroma of the canned chicken soup reminded him again of her weird transformation."So, somehow or another, your whole family is actually

Theo became soaked again on his trip to town, mainly when he got out to search the ditch for Star's purse, and the clothes she'd been wearing when the transformation hit. He found them about halfway between the car and the cabin and scooped them all into a plastic grocery bag. Then, after making a grocery run and the necessary calls, he retrieved her suitcase from her car while he waited for the tow truck operator. Once her car was hauled to the garage, he returned to the cabin to find Star had cleaned up after dinner and done a load of laundry. Apparently her ankle wasn't bothering her much at all, though he chewed her out for abusing it anyway."I told my parents I wasn't coming up," he informed her as they sat in front of the fire he'd built. Star lounged on the sofa with her ankle up while he sat on the floor with his back against the front of the couch. "I also told Sam you were fine, but that I would stay here overnight to keep an eye on you, just in case. He wanted to rush up h

Star nodded when Theo asked if she'd packed nipple clamps. "Just little ones, but they work for me when I'm alone.""Put them on. And anything else you use to make yourself come." One thing he knew about Star - sexually, she liked to be told what to do. As she'd said, she was a bottom all the way. She wasn't into pain or serious bondage, but she liked to submit, and that suited Theo just fine."Okay." She wet her lips then sat up and dug through her bag, drawing out another small, cloth pouch. She shook it open and three objects fell out - two small disks of some kind of wire lace with holes in the center, and a tiny tin that looked like lip balm, with a flower on the lid. While he watched, Star picked up the tin and rubbed white ointment on her finger tip. "This is a warming balm."He stared, mesmerized as she rubbed the balm onto her nipples. The deep pink buds grew even harder than they'd already been and darkened another shade. She took her time, twisting and pulling each one, u

"Absolutely," Star said with a yawn at the end. "Just like bunnies, but with no little buns in the oven. You're not going to quit with the rabbit puns are you?Theo chuckled. "Maybe when we're eighty. Now I think maybe it's time to put this tired little bunny to bed." He made no move to get up though. Right now it just felt too good to lie here with her in his arms in the warm glow of the fire."Only if you're coming with me," she murmured. "You're not going to make me sleep alone tonight, are you?"How could she even think that? Damn, the communication between the two of them really did have some giant gaps in it. "I'm not a hypocrite, sugar. Whatever's going on here this weekend, I'm not going to deny it's happening. I'll be right there beside you, all the way.""Now you're making yourself like a golden retriever," she teased, playing idly with his sparse chest hair."Well, I prefer to think of myself as an invincible sex god, but if you like to think about fucking a dog..." He

"This a very good morning," Theo said, kissing Star hard, not seeming to mind the taste of his own cum in her mouth. "Now it's my turn to play. Can't have me getting the only present on your birthday, can we?" He rolled her onto her back.Star wasn't going to complain a bit. He kissed her chin, her neck and the valley between her breasts before settling down to pay serious attention to her nipples, which were still sensitive from the night before. He rolled the tender nubs between his fingers, sucking and licking first one and then the other until Star was writhing against the crisp cotton sheets. Finally, when she'd begged him, he moved between her legs and slid his hands under her ass to lift her pussy to his mouth."Put your legs over my shoulders," he instructed then lowered his mouth to lick the seam of her labia and draw circles around her clit with his tongue. "And play with your own nipples."She caught one of her breasts in each hand and pinched her nipples lightly as he li

"You know you're a better cook than I am," Star said later as she finished off the last of the omelet Theo had made for brunch. Neither of them had realized it was almost noon when the mechanic called to tell them Star's car was fine except for a small ding in the front fender and some scratches in the paint. After the car had been dropped off, they'd decided to finish eating before testing her ability to leave the cabin.Theo had to admit, part of him hoped the spell, or whatever it was, wasn't over yet. He and Star had been growing closer in the last eighteen or so hours, but they hadn't had enough chance to talk yet, to sort out the issues that had driven them apart last summer."Theo?" Star set her fork down and reached across the table to take his hand. "Is something wrong?""No." He shook his head and smiled. "Just thinking a little too hard, I guess."Her lips twisted into a wry grin. "I doubt it. Me not thinking enough was probably most of our problem. You seemed so grown-u
