Catch Me (The Winters Family Series: Book 1) (4 page)

He stepped in front of her, only a moment separating them.  He cupped the sides of her face with his rough warm hands, her skin was warm, and so soft.  "I am not sure how it happened, but in this short amount of time, you have completely altered my senses.  My thoughts are only of you, and that means you have managed to distract me even when I'm working."

Isabel heard his words, and remembered what her mom had told her.  She felt like she was on fire, he made her crazy with desire.

Drew moved his hands slowly down to her neck.  Then one hand cupped the back of her neck, and the other hand moved down her back to cup her hip.  He brought her in closer, "tell me you feel the same, tell me this is not crazy."

She slowly smiled, "well, I can tell you you are definitely not alone.  I have never felt this way about anyone so quickly.  It's new to me, and I'm not for sure what it all means, but yes I do feel the same."

He took a deep sigh of relief, and bent down to capture her gorgeous lips with his.  They immediately wrapped their arms around each other.  He tugged at her bottom lip, and she parted for him, their tongues entangled in a dance of desire.

When they finally parted, Isabel's head was spinning, completely out of breath.  She looked up into his eyes, and with a devious grin, "well... I believe we may have a problem here."

Still slightly out of breath, he laughed softly, "yeah, what kind of problem?"

She slowly rocked herself up against him.  He groaned slightly.  She could feel the hard length of his shaft on her stomach.  "I believe we both need to get to work."

"You are making me crazy Isabel, and I love every minute of it."

Isabel laughed, leaned up and slowly kissed him, just a soft kiss.  "Well if it makes you feel any better, you have completely scrambled my brain, too."  She teasingly pushed him back.  He looked surprised, then with a child-like grin he looked sad.  Poking him softly in his chest, playfully stern, she said "Oh no you don't, Mister, but when will you be back home?"

He immediately lit up, "Saturday morning. Can I come see you?"

He brought her close to him.  She put her hands on his chest, "you better,"  then with a pout, "Saturday is too far away, but okay. I'll just have find a way to keep myself busy."

"See, now that is just mean." He took her mouth and kissed her with such passion.  When they surfaced it felt like it had been hours, instead only seconds had passed.

Drew looked down into her green eyes, "I will call you tonight, okay?"

She smiled, "that sounds perfect."

He kissed her one last time, then turned to head to his Jeep.  He looked back, she was leaning on the side of the railing, her hands across her stomach.  She smiled, shooing him away, "go!"

He just laughed, and got into his jeep.

CHAPTER 4

Shawna was smiling, shaking her head as she walked up to Isabel's desk, "Earth to Isabel!"

Isabel was sitting at her desk, with a glazed look in her eyes, "huh, what?"

Smiling, Shawna said, "Okay, Sweetie, you alright tonight?  You have been staring at the same image for almost ten minutes."

"Oh my God, Shawna, I feel like I am going crazy. I am on a count down to Saturday."

Shawna grabbed a chair and rolled it over to Isabel's desk.  "What's on Saturday?  Wait... does this have anything to do with that hot neighbor of yours?"

Isabel just sighed, "Shawna, I can't explain why or how, but he is on my mind 24/7.  We talk every night before I go to sleep, and he even calls in the morning."

Shawna leaned back in her chair, holding up both hands. "Wait, you're telling me the guy you just met, what, last Thursday?  You both talk everyday now?"

Isabel nodded her head, "everytime we are together, there is like an electrical current pulling us towards each other.  We both have tried to control it, but we finally gave in on Tuesday morning."

Shawna sat up in her chair. "Gave up?  As in... you have already slept with the guy?"

Startled, Isabel backpedaled. "No, no, I mean kissing.  But I think more will happen very soon.  Like Saturday!" Isabel blushed.

"Are you okay with that?"

Isabel just smiled, "I wish Saturday was here already!  Since we talk everyday now, we have really taken the time to get to know each other.  It is nice to have the time to get to know each other."

Smiling, Shawna got up from her chair, put a hand on her friend's shoulder, "Well, like my momma always told me, you can't always choose who you love, sometimes love chooses for you.  Be careful," then, with a wink, "and don't do anything I wouldn't do."

Isabel touched her friends hand, and laughed, "So basically just have fun then?"

"Exactly!"

Danny walked into the station on Saturday morning, with coffee and bagels in tow.  Looking startled, Danny said, "What are you doing?"

Drew was slouched on the couch, tapping his fingers, an overnight bag at his feet.  Looking up at Danny, "Counting down to nine o'clock."

Danny sat down in the chair opposite his friend, "I've never seen you so anxious to go home."

Raising his eyebrows, Drew said, "How sweet, I didn't know you were keeping tabs," then, with a smile, "I've never had someone special waiting at home for me."

Smiling, Danny said, "Ahhhh, the beautiful green eyed neighbor!  Well... I don't think anything crazy will happen in the next 20 minutes, so why don't you take off?"

"You sure?"

"I'm sure... Go!"

Drew rushed home, while still obeying the traffic laws.  When he pulled up to his cottage, he looked over and saw Isabel's curtains blowing in the breeze.  Her windows were slightly open, and you could hear a slight hum coming from inside.  She was probably watching tv.  Drew immediately had images of her in bed, naked, and enjoying the gorgeous morning.  He quickly got out of his jeep, and went into his house to make them each breakfast.

Drew had never felt so many emotions for one woman, but this woman had something special about her.

He made some coffee, eggs and toast.  He placed two mugs of coffee, two small glasses with orange juice, a plate with eggs and toast all on a tray.  He took a deep breath and walked over to Isabel's cottage.  He lightly knocked on her door, but did not hear her respond.  He actually felt nervous.  He turned the knob... it was unlocked.  He may need to talk with her about safety, but that conversation was for another day.

He carefully walked in not sure what to expect.  He heard her tv, then said her name, before poking his head into her room.  The scene before him was completely erotic, and well, Goddamn arousing.  She was stretched out on her bed with only a sheet covering her every curve.  Her body was beyond amazing.

Isabel sat up, not thinking about the fact that the sheet was the only thing between her and Drew.  Her sheet slid down exposing her gorgeous breasts for just a moment.  She quickly covered herself, "Drew?  How did you get in?  Crap, did I leave the door unlocked again?"

Drew smiled, "Again?  I know we live in a pretty safe place, BUT still!"

She smiled, then felt a flush run down her face, quietly she said, "Finally... it is Saturday!"

Isabel could hear a loud beating, and finally realized it was her heart.  Drew was standing in her doorway holding a tray of breakfast.  He truly looked delicious wearing jeans that hugged him in all the right places, a white t-shirt, and was... oh my God... barefoot.  Her mind had been clouded by images of him all week.  She tried to stay focused, but that was impossible.  To have him standing in her doorway actually calmed her.

Drew walked slowly to her bed, sat the tray on her nightstand.  He carefully started to sit down on her bed.  He moved a pillow and leaned back against the wall, crossing his legs.

Isabel watched every move he made, and realized at that moment she needed to let go of her fears.  This man, this beautiful firefighter was not like any man she had ever dated.  She smiled, "I should probably go put some clothes on."

He looked into her eyes, and then his eyes slowly wandered down, enjoying every luscious curve, her delicate skin, and her beautiful breasts.  He then slowly looked back up into her eyes, his irises were almost black from desire, he slowly said in a husky voice, "Please don't."

There was mischief in his eyes, and she could feel the heat radiating between their bodies.  The feeling was intense.

Isabel was never one to be open when it came to relationships.  She found she was shy, nervous, and that was probably why it had been awhile since she had dated.  Today was different- it was morning, her windows were open- and the man next to her wanted her as well.

Isabel looked into his eyes, then carefully looked at the tray he had brought over, "Do I smell coffee?" Then she started to lean over Drew, while still looking into those beautiful blue eyes.

Drew inhaled deeply, the feeling of Isabel on him was enough to send him over the edge. His voice was a little raspy when he said, "Isabel?"

She was momentarily frozen, not from nerves, but from the anticipation.  Hearing her name, looking into those blue eyes, her insides felt like mush, like she could just melt away.  Isabel's hand was resting on the bed right next to Drew's rib cage.  She started to sit back slightly, and slowly moved her other hand up his abdomen, his muscles tightening from her touch.  She stopped her hand, and traced his collar bone, the side of his neck, his jaw line, and his bottom lip.  Her slight smile showed happiness and desire.

Drew was having difficulty staying still, as he felt Isabel slowly touch him.  Her touch was warm, and sensuous.  He wanted to take her into his arms right then and there, but he knew he had to be patient.  This moment, with Isabel, was beyond anything he could describe.  His body shook from the intense need for this beautiful woman.

Isabel slowly moved her hand back down to his abdomen.  With careful movements, she slid her hand under his shirt.  His skin felt warm, and that helped chase away any doubt that was lingering in the back of her mind.

Drew was taking in deep breaths, and slightly shaking from her touch.

Isabel then moved his shirt up, and slowly bent down to kiss him.  While kissing his abdomen, she looked up at him behind half closed eyelids and smiled.  When she moved just slightly to move up and kiss him again, the sheet fell off of her.   She looked down, then with a slow sexy laugh just said, "oops."

That was it, Drew took the moment and moved sharply.  Isabel let out a gasp of shock, while giggling.  He moved Isabel on to her back, and let the sheet completely fall away from her.  He sat back on his knees, stopping to enjoy the scene in front of him.  She had creamy pale skin, with gorgeous freckles sprinkled all over her body.  Her breasts were full and laying out, seemingly just for him.

She shifted just slightly, and managed to rub up against him.  He was so hard and ready for her, he felt like he could break the zipper on his jeans.

Isabel looked up, smiling, "Someone is wearing too many clothes."

Drew looked down at her, "Or someone is not wearing enough clothes."

Teasing, she slowly went to get up, "I can go grab my robe if you like?"

Drew grabbed both of her wrists, and brought them down to the bed above her head. Laughing, he said seductively, "you're not going anywhere."  He bent down and took one taut nipple in his mouth, then slowly moved to her other nipple, she tasted so sweet.  He could not get enough of her taste, the way she felt. Drew continued to enjoy every inch of her of delicious body.  Isabel was so aroused, she was panting and writhing beneath him.

He then rose and pulled his shirt over his head.  Then unzipped his jeans, and pulled both his jeans and boxers down at the same time.  His was hugely aroused.  He looked up to find Isabel looking him over in anticipation.  With a half grin, he said, "do you approve?"

Isabel just giggled, "get over here!"

As he started to get on the bed and move his way up her body, he stopped half way, and started kissing the inside of her leg.

Isabel's mind was reeling, she really couldn't think straight... especially with what he was about to do.  The man was a God in her eyes.  The moment he took his jeans off, she was breathless.  He was magnificent.  Now here he was about to do the one thing she wondered about, but had never experienced.  Then he slid his fingers up and down her heated flesh.  When he bent his head down to arouse and possess every last inch of her, Isabel was off in another world.

Drew loved every part of Isabel, she was so beautiful.  He kissed the inside of her leg, then she slowly parted for him, and he continued to trail hot kisses on her. He could feel her get hotter and wetter.  Isabel let out a gasp, "please don't stop."

That was all Drew needed.  He continued to stroke and arouse her, sliding over her clitoris, then suddenly pushing his fingers deep inside and moving fast.
