Blooming (23 page)

The two of
them slept together that night in his king size bed, wrapped together as tight
as two people could be and it felt pretty great.

Todd woke
early, glancing at the alarm clock it was only 6am, looking down he saw his arms
deliciously full of Jen, her nose crooked in his armpit and her hair spilling
out over his chest.  He was surrounded in the smell of her, she smelled like
marshmallows and cotton candy and other things that were probably pink. Actually
they both did since he’d used her shower gel as well; parts of his body came
fully awake in a hurry.

He stayed put
for a few minutes just enjoying her up against him, then the naughty side of
him refused to be contained any longer and he decided to see how long he could play
with her without disturbing her sleep.

Gently
rolling Jen off him and onto her back, he quietly scooted down her body trying
not to rock the bed or disturb the covers, she sighed and shifted, licking her
dry lips but remained asleep.

Carefully he
lifted his t shirt up her legs exposing her slender thighs and lower body for
his pleasure, and then he gently slid her panties off and settled his head
between her legs trapping her in place with his arms.

She didn’t
stir when he began to kiss her belly and thighs, soft little kisses designed
solely for him and not to disturb her, his hands encompassed the cheeks of her
rounded little bottom. Steeling himself not to squeeze until she decided to
wake up he took his tongue and licked up the crease of her legs outside of her
little landing strip, making a mental note to talk to her about that.

When Jen
still didn’t stir Todd stepped up his game, he took one firm lick right through
every intimate crevice from back to front, and like an electric shock up her
spine Jen was awake.

****

Jen woke with
a start - her first thought was where was she? Her second thought was where was
Todd?

In the next
breath she became aware of strong hands encompassing her bottom, squeezing and
kneading and then with a gasp she felt a hot slick sensation deep within her
causing delicious rippling and flickering sensations. She craned her neck and looked
down and saw a huge lump hidden under the bedspread and yep it was situated
right between her legs. Her legs!

She raised herself
to her elbows breathing heavily as a strong urge to push her hips into the
delicious pressure in her nether regions gripped her. The fact she couldn’t see
what the hell Todd was doing, god she hoped it was Todd, only heightened the
sensations. She was too turned on to laugh at the sight of his legs hanging
yards off the end of the bed and then Todd released one ass cheek to allow
those fingers to stroke the lips of her vagina as his tongue continued to lick
and press.

“Todd what
are you doing,” she gasped.

“I think that’s
fairly obvious,” came his muffled reply, “I’m taking advantage of you, now shut
up and let me get on with it.”

Jen found
herself senselessly making soft little huffing noises as Todd licked and
caressed her sensitive folds alternately making little stabbing pulses to her
clit. He stopped for a second, “hmm do you want me to use my fingers or my
tongue?”

There was a
long pause broken only by Jen’s panting and Todd questioned, “Jen?”

“I don’t know
what the right answer is Todd.”

“Both baby,
that’s the right answer.”

Not being
able to see she had to guess that the next thing she felt was one of Todd’s
long fingers sliding inside her and a long low moan passed her lips.

“Jen pull the
covers off me, you should watch this.”

Her hand
hovered not sure whether she could look and then he sighed as if he was gaining
real pleasure from what he was doing and her curiosity got the better of her. She
wanted to see his face, she flung the bedspread away and Todd’s face lit up.

She had a
hell of a view; Todd’s beautiful nude body, the solid weight of his hard torso
pinning her to the bed made her feel incredibly exposed and wanton. His eyes
flashed at her as he resumed lazily licking her insides - flickering over her
clitoris, confidently stroking his finger in and out. Her eyes closed in
pleasure as her hips tilted up to meet him. He pinched her butt to make her
open them again, making her squeak in shock.

“Watch,” he
ordered but with tenderness in his voice.

He forced her
to keep eye contact, as he removed his fingers and curving his tongue thrust it
as deep inside her core as he could reach.

Jen’s hips
flew back up involuntarily and she felt herself push against his face, sounds
coming from her she was unashamed to make - wanting him to know how good he was
making her feel. She didn’t know what to do with her hands, torn between
grabbing the headboard and grabbing his face instead they fluttered about as if
she was playing an invisible instrument.

Her eyes
roamed over him and focused on his gorgeous strong curvy bottom which was
thrusting against the end of the mattress at the same time his tongue thrust
inside her.  She longed to drag him up and over her to put her out of her suspense
but she just didn’t have the courage to do it, so she had to settle for
stretching out like a cat and digging her toes into the mattress.

Todd sensed
Jen’s orgasm coming as she fell back against the bed. Arching her back and
crying out, her fingers finally found their destination and thrust into his
hair - her short nails painfully raking his scalp. As he felt her about to
explode around his lips he pulled his tongue away and scraped his teeth over
her sensitive nub smiling in triumph as she came and came endlessly against his
face. He finally pressed tiny sweet kisses inside her - gentling her, soothing
her, as her body continued doing little bucks and spasms.

He’d made her
cry again, “Todd,” she gasped pressing his cheek against her pelvis stroking
his face, his hair; she was completely stunned by the power of her orgasm.

“Shush, I
know,” he said kissing her tummy, “that was what I’d hoped to do for you the
first night but you didn’t give me a chance to put the moves on you.”

“What can I
do for you?” she asked tiredly, navy eyes dazed, as he crawled up her body and
stroked his fabulous erection along her hip before kissing her deeply.

“Nothing - I
want to wait now. Until you have this appointment and know what you decide is
right for you and your body, I don’t want to mess around anymore. The next time
we’re together, we’re really going to be together, you hear me?” he said
shaking her chin.

“Hmm, my ears
are hearing but my brain’s not registering yet, tell me again later,” she
sighed as her hands slid down to caress his muscled butt, revelling in the
shape and bulk of him. She stretched her limbs languorously against Todd’s -
draining every bit of residual tension out of her muscles, the feeling was
exquisite. Her fingers stole lower, tracing his scrotum and as she was silently
thanking the stars again for all the tips she’d gleaned from soppy novels he
jumped up and away from her making the sign of the cross with his fingers.

“Back, back,
devil woman, I’m going to the shower for some quality time -
alone
,” he
stressed.

Jen fell back
against the bed, sated and happy and pulled the covers back over her before
drifting back to sleep feeling warm and tingly all over, she was woken again by
a soft kiss and a demand to get dressed, or she’d be late.

The group
split up for the day; seeing as the girls were setting out to Lexington, the
boys were going fishing, although Sean wasn’t really so keen he was going along
to please Sebastian.

Jen was
pleasantly surprised to discover that despite being nervous about this trip to
the doctor’s, she was starting to enjoy a little road trip with Bernie and
Lily. They were easy company and pretty soon all three of them were discussing Todd
and Marshall and moaning about men in general. Jen marvelled that Lily could
speak so candidly with her mother about everything even the possibility she was
developing feelings for Ben, she couldn’t help but wonder if she would ever have
reached a stage she could talk to her own mom like that.

They’d had a
good relationship, but her mom was so disillusioned about love and
relationships that when neither of them had had men in their lives, they’d never
had cause to discuss it. Now Jen wasn’t sure whether Bernie and Lily’s frank
conversation was what was considered normal or not, she was left a bit confused
and embarrassed, it felt like eavesdropping on an intimate moment.

Lily was
taking the opportunity to see the ob-gyn too, she’d already been given the all
clear and had thorough check-ups to make sure that the assault hadn’t given her
any lasting repercussions, but the last time she’d gone she was still quite
internally bruised and although she felt fine now she wanted to be sure she was
back to normal.

Lily had
confided in Jen that she was intending to discuss contraception too, she was fiercely
determined that what happened to her was not going to prevent her from moving
on eventually and Jen was hopeful it might be with Ben, who was courting her in
a rather gentle fashion.

At the
doctors Bernie offered to sit in with either of the girls if they wished but
both politely refused, Jen felt mortified enough at the discussion she was
going to have to have with the doctor without having company and Lily treated
it like a hurdle she had to overcome on her own.

Dr Benson was
the practice’s only female doctor available and because Lily had been seeing
her forever, Jen felt she couldn’t insist on having that appointment which
meant she would be seeing Dr Gregg.

A nurse came
in and asked her to take her clothes off and put on a paper gown then she sat
on the examining table waiting for the doctor - her heart strumming 50 to the
dozen. At least she didn’t have to worry about hairy legs or hairy pubes she
kept chanting to herself silently.

Dr Gregg came
in, he was young and good looking in a clean cut fashion and was quick to put
her at ease, he kept up a running banter with the nurse and Jen felt herself
relax a little. He sped through a few quick questions about her health and then
asked how old she was when she lost her virginity.

Jen stumbled
only slightly, “I’m still a virgin at the moment.”

Dr Gregg for
his part managed to gloss over his surprise, “actually that’s quite refreshing
to hear; the sad truth these days is I don’t get so many virgin’s coming
through my office.”

“Oh, I
suppose not,” was the only response that came to mind and she reddened.

“OK Jennifer
pop your legs into the stirrups and let’s examine you, while you’re here we’ll
do a full exam, which means checking your breasts and take a pap smear.”

“Oh God, I
didn’t realise there was quite so much to it, I just wanted some
contraception.”

“Its fine
Jennifer we’ll get to that, now first things first.”

When Jen came
out into reception a little later looking shell shocked, Bernie gave her a worried
look. “Jen, you ok?” Bernie thought it was Lily she had to be worried about but
Jen looked like she’d lost a winning lottery ticket. “Was it all straight
forward, did you have any problems?”

“Yeah, yes I
mean I’m all sorted no problem, is Lily ok?”

“Yes she’s
all finished with her doctor; she went out to listen to the radio in the car.”

Jen was
preoccupied all through lunch. She joined in the conversation just so they
wouldn’t quiz her, but her mind was churning away and by the time they got back
to the cabins, after a brief stop to make sure Bernie and Marsh’s house was ok,
Jen was feeling pretty exhausted.

Instead of
going to track Todd down, she wandered off down to the end of the dock and sat
with her jeans rolled up so she could dabble her ankles in the water, that’s
where he found her an hour later.

“Hey,” she
felt his hand on her shoulder before she realised he was there; he sat and
turned her head to kiss her but stopped when he saw her red crumpled face.

“What’s wrong
honey?” a touch of alarm in his voice as he checked his pockets for a tissue
and not finding one gently wiped her face with his cuff.

“Nothing
really, it’s stupid I don’t even know why I’m crying.”

“Did you...”
he broke off not sure how to ask the question.

“Yes, I’ll be
able to start the pill in a few days when... god I can’t believe I’m having
this discussion with you, my face will be all flushed again. What I’m trying to
say is my period’s due in a few days I’m to start taking it then and after that
I suppose?” She shrugged her shoulders.

“Why the
tears, was it really so bad?”

“It’s nothing
Todd I’m just being pathetic, it’s just when the doctor examined me he found
that my hymen wasn’t intact anymore, I’m not really a virgin and I didn’t even
know it,” her voice broke slightly and fresh tears fell.

Todd pulled
her in close but she stayed rigid against him, it didn’t matter a damn to him
but it obviously did to her.

“It could have
happened at anytime, the doctor seemed a bit disappointed I don’t think he’d
come across a 27 year old virgin before, but I guess it could have been the
accident, doing ballet when I was younger, the few times I went horse riding,
tampons, god knows. It probably withered away from boredom.

I know it’s
really stupid Todd, but although I was embarrassed about it, another part of me
held onto that. That one day maybe I would meet someone and I would have like
this stupid gift, to give them, give you I suppose. I thought it made me
special made up for me being so ridiculous.”

He quieted
her with his hands and spoke softly, “Well I’m glad it’s not an issue, it’s a
no brainer for me. I know you’ve not been with anyone else but it wouldn’t
change the way I feel even if you had. I’m just happy I don’t have to worry
about hurting you when we do make love, and you should be glad – it’s one less
anxiety for you.”
