CHAPTER 9

Adam

No one can make melaugh like this woman can, but I don't want to be laughing right now.

I've finally got her settled back down, so we stand, and I take my boxers the rest of the way off by myself.I pull her into me and kiss her because I can't not kiss her.I can't not touch her.This beautiful thing that I know is meant for me.It's a thing that I know, not a thing that I think.It clicked for me what all of these feelings have been about when I first saw her beneath me, submitting to me.I have never been so attracted to another person in my life.I have never felt as emotionally and physically connected to someone as I do to her.

It's important to know your limits and your weaknesses.I always told myself that I would recognize mine if ever I were confronted with them.Eve is my weakness.Eve is my limit.Eve is my everything and it doesn't matter how long I've known her.It doesn't matter how apprehensive she is.Eve is mine and she was always meant to be.

Leading her to the shower, which has already been running for too long, I help her into it.I slide in to get behind her, but she's already facing me.Her eyes become panicked when I grab her shoulders to turn her around.The water is raining down around us as she shakes her head jerkily.She's scared.Why?"Turn around, Eve."

"No.Please."Her quiet words are like a knife slicing me open.They're pained and full of fear.Is this a body image thing again?If so, I don't want to give her a choice here but she's so much more troubled now than she was before that I just walk her backward into the streaming water.My fingers comb through her long, dark hair that's so much darker under the water.She closes her eyes, leaning her head back into my palms while I lean down, kissing her on those soft, full lips.She keeps her mouth closed, purring into my kiss.I take my time washing her hair, conditioning it, and rinsing it clean before I pour body wash onto her green loofa.Her towels are green and so are her sheets."What's your favorite color?"

She opens her eyes and smiles her most genuine smile."Green.What's yours?"

Staring back at her, I search her face.Looking into her pale green eyes that are the color of a bird I once saw.The Glistening Green Tanager.Like Eve, the bird is beautiful and elusive.I read once that pale green is the color of new beginnings."Green."I finally say."Tanager green."

I want to ask what her last name is, but I know that will only prompt her to ask mine again and I don't think she's ready for that yet.I continue asking her questions and fielding some in return while I lather the loofa and begin washing her shoulders.Without ever turning her around, I gently wash her back.Thoroughly enjoying myself, I wash every perfect inch of her tan skin paying special attention to her firm round ass and her pretty pink pussy listening to her gasps each time my fingers run across her clit.

I see several other scars in various places on her body and I'm convinced that she must have been in a pretty serious accident.

Standing to my feet, I rinse the soap from her glistening body.Once she's clean, I reach down between her legs again, finding her clit.She sucks in a sharp breath at the contact.She's looking directly into my eyes with awe.So very responsive to my every touch.The rest of the time, she's an expert at hiding what she's feeling.She gives away nothing on her face and keeps her tone level but when I touch her, she quickly comes apart beneath my fingers.It's the hottest thing I've ever experienced, and I have experienced a lot.

I swirl and flick her clit until her head falls to my shoulder and her gasps and whimpers become louder.I circle her clit faster and she grabs me around the neck with one hand while stabilizing herself against the shower wall with the other.Moving faster and rougher, rocking my hand forward and backward, I create a different sensation until she screams into my neck.Again changing my movements, I grasp her clit between thumb and forefinger rubbing and tugging until the last of her orgasm works its way through her body.

"Have you ever made yourself cum like that?"

She shakes her head and tries to control her breathing.

I turn and kiss her neck, her shoulder, her neck again.She straightens and looks me in the eyes."My turn."

My eyebrows shoot up at her boldness.This is new.I like it.Repositioning us until I'm under the streaming water, she runs her hands through my hair, making sure it's wet before repeating the same routine I just performed on her.As she begins to soap my body, she watches the loofa in her hand while it moves across my chest, down my abdomen, and onto my shaft.It's like watching a child learn a new skill.She's filled with curiosity and wonder in equal measure.

She finishes washing me and rinsing off the soap, so I turn to shut off the water, but she grabs both of my hands from behind, dropping them at my sides.My breath is audible when she reaches around my hips to grasp my cock in both hands.At first, she just explores, softly rubbing up and down my length.She rubs her thumb over my moistening tip and I nearly cum on the spot.Hmmm she's not the only one that is responsive to the touch of the other.While placing soft kisses across my back she says, “Tell me how you like it."

I groan and lean my head back onto hers."Fuck, Eve.There's nothing you can do to me that won't feel better than every other experience I've ever had."
