you dont have the courage PART 2

It was a dizzying sensation, feeling the rush of power as he leaned in to run his tongue along her very core. The near-silence in the room was finally shattered by the moan that escaped   Alicia then. When Emmett chanced a look up at her, he had expected her to cover her mouth with one hand, being rather shy, but instead, her eyes had fluttered shut, her mouth fallen slack and her hands stayed where they were, one tangled in his hair and the other fisted in the sheets.

She was entirely unabashed at this point and Emmett took pride in the fact that he worked her up to ragged breath and airless moans in a matter of mere minutes. When she let out a whispered, “Emmett-  …” he was suddenly reminded of the tightness of his own pants, containing his erection that had been neglected all this time.

Worming one hand underneath himself, he managed to undo his pants and slide both them and his underwear down to his knees so he could begin stroking himself in earnest.

Not long after, Emmett could feel   Alicia’s thighs tense around him and with a call of his name and a light whimper, all of the tension suddenly released from her body. He sat up partially then, his own hand even slowing on his cock, to watch her in the throes of pleasure.

When she regained some of her breath, she opened her eyes and looked up at Emmett before very obviously looking down to take in the sight of his hand lightly stroking his leaking arousal. Wordlessly, she sat up and gently removed his hand, replacing it with her own. Emmett would admit to being surprised, but then he would have to scold himself again for ever being surprised by   Alicia. He didn’t think he’d ever learn.

Her touch was light and hesitant at first, and he thrust shallowly into her grip, encouraging her to be firmer with her actions. It was clear she had never attempted this sort of thing before, but that didn’t seem to deter her in the least. In fact, she seemed eager to learn, which only made her more attractive to Emmett. Soon, she had learned several tricks to get Emmett to bury half-stifled moans into the side of her neck.

It was just like that, her hand curled around him, stroking him with an unpracticed perfect imperfection, and his body wrapped around hers, panting harshly against her neck, that he came.

As he floated back down from his cloud, he once again felt   Alicia’s hands on his face, turning him back to her so she could place her lips sweetly against his. Emmett allowed himself the liberty of savoring this kiss, taking his time with it and reaching to tuck her hair behind her ear and run his thumb over her cheek.

When they parted, no words were spoken as Emmett stood to swiftly clean up the light mess that had been made. He brought   Alicia a damp towel to wipe her hands and for some reason unknown to him, this made her smile warmly at him.

He didn’t understand. But he did appreciate.

Several minutes later, Emmett settled down on his bed and   Alicia looked as though she were about to stand. She wore an odd sort of expression now, one that Emmett finally, after some thought, realized as discomfort.

As she moved to stand, she also opened her mouth to speak, but before she could, Emmett reached and grabbed her wrist, gently but swiftly pulling her down beside him. He wrapped an easy, casual arm around her shoulders and held her against himself, planting a kiss atop her head and mumbling, “You’re not going anywhere.”

And if she buried a smile in his chest so he wouldn’t see, that was okay with him.

They fell into an easy silence, both tired enough to forego any attempts at conversation and simply close their eyes, holding each other close. Emmett knew there would be some repercussions to this at some point, most likely as soon as the following morning. But in that moment, Emmett couldn’t find it within him to care; he could only pity his future self.

And when the thunder started, Emmett held onto   Alicia until she stopped shaking and fell soundly asleep.
