Easing his firm grip on my hair, he untangled his fingers. Leisurely, his right hand moved down to my right thigh. The tip of his fingers tickled up and down the inside of my upper thigh. Resting the palm of his hand over my mound, he slid his index finger over my sensitive bud. His hand stilled, “Natalia,” he breathed, “You feel so good.”

Continuing a counter clockwise motion, his touch sent sparks of pleasure throughout my entire body. Pushing his middle finger into my slick wet center, he crooned my name again. Stroking, he suckled and nibbled on my left nipple. I mewled, arching my back. My body thrashed as his fingers pressed deep inside me, faster and faster, and rubbed my nub with his thumb.   

Whatever sliver of thought or control I had, vanished. Swooning, I succumbed to my desires. The pleasure had my entire body screaming, “
Bradley… don’t stop!
” I kissed him fiercely, pulling his hair as his finger went deeper, stroking and penetrating me harder, quicker. My muscles tightened, toes curled as my storm broke and my climax shook through me.

My body convulsed almost violently. I tried to catch my breath. My mouth was too dry making it nearly impossible for me to swallow. Shaky, breathless, and barely audible I whimpered, “Bradley.” I couldn’t say anything else so I buried my head in his neck wept uncontrollably.

Misunderstanding that my tears were happy tears, he asked if he hurt me. “I’m sorry I got lost in the moment, too.” He backed away trying to see how bad he hurt me.

“N-no-o.” I shoved my face back into his neck and my body convulsed one more time.

“Then why are you crying?” He tried not to sound frustrated.

“You were right, I did enjoy it more.” I made a strangled sound and he chuckled. “Please give me a minute.” I needed to catch my breath. I wanted to embrace the moment. However, before I could catch my breath he kissed me intimately.

When I could finally speak again, I shyly confessed, “You made me weep. It felt so good I lost control of my emotions.” Unsure if that was a good or bad thing I promised, “I promise to do better next time.”

His eyes grab hold of mine. “Silly woman, you couldn’t get any better. I thought I lost control and hurt you. I’ve never been with anyone that I’ve pleasured into tears. That’s a huge ego boost for someone like me.” Hearing his boisterous laughter made me grin. We laid there in each other’s arms, my breasts pressing against his bare chest, until we were in control of ourselves. Apparently, I ripped his shirt open, sending the buttons flying through the air. Since I don’t remember doing that, I’ll have to take his word for it.

Bradley reminded me that Jesse and Colleen may still be downstairs, that I should get dressed. As I dressed, I could tell by the way he stared at me, that he was memorizing every part of my naked body. He sported his devilish smile with eyes burning, wanting to do it again.

I sighed and grimaced at the thought of going downstairs. I knew Jesse would take advantage of the moment and tease me, ruining the rest of my day.

“It’ll be alright. I won’t let him tease you. Come on let's go get you something to eat.” He kissed my forehead and we headed downstairs.

To my relief Colleen and Jesse weren’t there, they left leaving us a note reading,
Breakfast is on the counter. We had to go. We’ll call you later. See ya
.

“Do you think they knew what we were doing?” The thought made me blush.

“No. You’re blushing.” He stroked my left cheek with his fingers, my heart skipped a beat. “They were too busy eating. You still hungry?”

“No, now I’m starving.” We laughed.

As I ate, he just sat next to me holding my left hand gently, running his fingers along my palm lines. It reminded me how his fingers felt inside of me and I quivered.

“You okay?” He raised a quizzical eyebrow.

“Yep, just a delayed reaction. Guess I wasn’t finished.” I smiled at him. When he figured out what I meant his eyes glazed over and he flashed my favorite smile.

“I love you, Natalia. Would you like me to show you, again, how much?”

Still smiling, I swallow my mouthful of food and countered, “I love you, too. Sure, you can show me any time after we come back from our hike and I get a shower. My body is still recovering from the last time. Would that be okay with you?”

“If you insist. However, we could just skip the hike and get in the shower.” He laughed. I didn’t respond. I wanted to think about it while I ate. It did sound like a good idea. Plus, I’d get to see him naked, completely naked because next time I will be the one doing the pleasuring. Unfortunately, I lacked experience in this area so I wasn’t quite sure how I was going to do that. Maybe I’ll bring it up during a casual conversation with Colleen.

Knowing what I wanted, after we ate we took a walk to see how far back my property went. Before getting to the property line, we came upon a creek. There’s only two ways to get to the other side, walk through the water or jump over it. It was about twenty feet wide so Bradley picked me up and easily jumped over to the other side. He set me back on my feet, turned towards Seager, who stood waiting on the other side.

“Do you want me to come and get you?”

“You’re kidding, right?”
He jumped into the creek splashing his way to our side.
“It’s not deep.”
The water line came up to his back so it had to be about two or three feet deep. He strutted quickly past us then shook the excess water off.

“I can’t believe you were able to jump that far with me in your arms. You know I’ve noticed you’re really fast too, unbelievably fast.” I wanted to see how strong and fast, but thought it would be rude to ask. Sometimes he liked to flaunt his skills but other times he seemed quite modest about them.

Lifting my chin he looked into my eyes and asked, “What’s on your mind? I’ve seen that look before. Have you run out of questions already?” I shrugged my shoulders. “I really thought you’d have a few hundred lined up ready to ask away.”

Smiling I admitted, “I do have several questions, would you mind if I asked a few?” I stood on my tippy toes and planted one on him.

Unable to keep from laughing he nodded his head and said, “Ask away.”

“How fast can you run?”

“I don’t know I’ve never timed myself.”

“Oh. Hmm.”

He took off running. A blurred image raced towards the house. When he didn’t return immediately I started to get a little nervous, “Bradley?”

After a few minutes, he stood before me, with a bottle of water. Not even breathing heavy he handed it to me, “Thought you might be thirsty.” He smirked. Show off!

“You ran back to the house?” It was a rhetorical question. It took us about twenty minutes to get here. “Wow, you’re fast, Bradley.” My pride beamed, my man is skilled in more ways than one. He took my hand and we continued our hike, exploring my property. 

“How strong are you?”

“I’m strong enough to knock that tree down. If you want me to show you I will but keep in mind it may have a domino effect. Other trees may also fall.” I shook my head no. “You can’t come up with better questions than that?”

After about an hour of walking and my asking random questions, we finally reached my property line. Instead of following it, we decided to head back. That’s when we came upon a herd of deer. Seager started to take off before I told him to stay with us. You’d figure by now he’d know not to do that. We stood there watching them for a while before going back to the house. We saw a lot of wildlife. Suddenly, I felt humbled.

“I feel really fortunate right now. After all the bad things that I’ve experienced the last few months… Here I am living my dream. I’m so lucky.”

“I know someone who’s even luckier than you.”

“I doubt that, who?”

“Me. I have you.” He lifted me up, “It’ll be quicker if I carry you.”

I scowled at him. “Are you saying I’m slow?”

“No, never.” He laughed. “I thought maybe you’d like to feel how fast I am. Plus Seager could stretch out his legs. Shall we?”

“Okay, but don’t lose Seager.” Out the corner of my eye, I see Seager lift his lips as if to growl at me.

He started running. Everything flashed by so quickly that it made me dizzy. I tried to see if Seager followed but couldn’t. The forest, full of glorious rainbow colors; red, green and yellow, blurred and entwined together,making it hard to tell where one color started and the other ended.

“Bradley, wait. Where’s Seager?” He stopped immediately. I looked behind us and couldn’t find him anywhere. I turned and saw the house already. “Am I slowing you down?” I couldn’t resist the opportunity, I had to say it.

“Funny, he’s over there, behind you.” He turned around to show me where Seager stood waiting for us to resume our race back to the house. “Why don’t you show her how fast you are?” With that, Seager took off. All I saw was a white blur. I looked up at Bradley and asked how that could be possible.

“It seems as though your dog has skills too. What do you say we catch up to him?” And we were off. Before I knew it, we were all home sitting on the front porch.

At first, I didn’t say anything to Seager. Slightly irritated that he never mentioned his skills I actually ignored him. I wondered what other skills, if any, he hadn’t told me about. I mean, we’re supposed to be buds, best buds.

He broke the silence first.
“Don’t be mad, Natalia. I didn’t realize I could run that fast either. I’ve never had to. I promise you know all there is to know about me. Okay?”

“Fine. Sorry I got so upset. You know I love you.”

“Ditto. I’m going to take a nap. It sounds like Jesse and Colleen are on their way up the drive.”

“Seager says Jess and Coll are on their way.”

“Yes, ma’am,” he said. By the look on his face, he was about to tell me something but instead waited until they pulled up. They both walked up to the house, Colleen carried a duffel bag and Jesse, two bags full of groceries.

“Hey guys, what’s up? You ready, Brad?” Jesse asked.

“Ready for what?” I replied looking at Bradley confused.

“I have to go, Natalia. We’ve had these plans for a few weeks now, I can’t cancel them.” He pulled me from my seat and hugged me. “I’m sorry, love; you know I would if I could. I’ll return tomorrow mid-morning.”

“But I’m leaving tomorrow at noon.”

“Aw, I’ve disappointed you. I do apologize that was not my intention. I didn’t know you were coming, otherwise I would have changed my plans. It just wasn’t enough notice.” He brushed my hair from my cheek and placed it behind my ear.

“Well, I guess this is what I get for not telling you I was coming. I assure you that won’t happen again.” I was disappointed, but not with him, more with the fact that I’d be by myself tonight.

“No worries, girlfriend, we’re having a sleep over, a girl’s night.” She lifted up her duffel bag. “I brought some clothes. Jess and I stopped to pick up a pizza and some junk food.” Jesse pulled a pizza from the truck.

“Really? Great. That’ll be fun.”

“I also brought some chick flicks and my manicure kit. You’re in major need of a manicure and some polish.” Colleen’s intentions were to turn me into a girly girl. That’s just not me.

I sighed. “I’m afraid to ask you what else is in the bag.”

“You should be.” She laughed and gave Jesse a kiss goodbye.

“I’ll see you tomorrow. Only sweet dreams my love.” Bradley held me tightly, kissing me fiercely, passionately, like earlier. Smiling down at me, he kissed my forehead and said, “Seager, watch over her.”

“Oh what, am I chopped liver?” Colleen sarcastically added as she walked up beside me.

We watched and waved as they drove away. As soon as they were out of sight, Colleen looked down at my nails asking what we’re doing first. If she doesn’t get to do my nails, she’d probably pout all night, moping around.

“How about we eat first then you can do my nails?” Clutching my hand, she pulled me into the house through to the kitchen flicking the pizza box open. “I pick the polish color and nothing too extreme.”

“Fine… fine. Now eat so we can get started.” With her mouth full of pizza she asked, “Want to watch ‘Fifty First Dates?’”

After swallowing the food in my mouth, I replied, “Sure, I love that movie. Drew is a great actress. I love the way she beats the guy with the bat… ‘Keep running.’” I tried to impersonate her but failed miserably. Still we both cracked up laughing.

While watching the movie, she worked on my nails every now and then, stabbing me with the cuticle cutters when she laughed. I would tell her to pay more attention but I planned to take advantage of my current situation to ask her about sex and Bradley. It took me longer than I thought to come up with the courage to ask.

Halfway through the movie, trying to sound casual I finally asked, “Colleen, do you have a lot of experience with men?”

She didn’t even look away from my nails. “It depends what you mean by experience. I’ve been with a few of my kind but I’m not a pro.” She gets agitated when she erroneously painted my finger. “Why do you ask?”

I inhaled deeply and exhaled slowly. “Well I don’t have any experience with sex and well… I don’t really have any experience with pleasuring men. I was just wondering what to do. I mean I know I could
play
with him, but, is that all?” Uncomfortable with my subject of choice, wishing I’d never brought it up I just stopped talking. The silence was deafening. No longer painting my nails, I focused on them and felt her staring at me. I never expected the terrified glare I saw when I finally looked up at her.
