Shit, he’s still after Rona

 

My fear of losing her must be showing, because Rona takes hold of my face and kisses me.  “Yes, I know he’s attracted to me.  In fact, I would have to be an idiot not to know, but I’ve told him it’s you I love.  He’s a nice guy and I’m so glad he was there today, but I don’t have anything other than, maybe, friendship on my mind.”

 

“I believe you love.”

 

“I feel better now,” Rona says.

 

I only wish I do.

 

She pulls me towards Justin’s car, “Will you help us carry the bags in please?” she asks, still holding my hand.

 

“Of course I will.”
 Then I stop dead.  “I think you’re going to need a walk in closet.”  I look at a smiling Rona, “Unless, of course, these all belong to Elise?”

 

“These are mine.” Elise walks around the car waving her two bags in the air.

 

“I’m afraid your girlfriend loves shopping at that store.”

 

“You bought all this in one place?”

 

“Yes, it’s so much easier than going shop to shop, don’t you think?”

 

“I love you.
  Come on let’s get this lot inside.”  I grab as many bags as I can.

 

“Rona, I’m going to go straight upstairs with these.”

 

“I’ll make coffee.”

 

~~ Rona ~~

 

“Elise, do you want some coffee?”

 

“No thanks, I’m going to go and hide these before Jake gets back.”
 Elise heads towards her room, but not fast enough before Cade comes back down.

 

“Elise, what did you buy to ‘knock Jake’s socks off’?” Cade asks, her trying not to laugh at the look of horror on her face.

 

I laugh, while she blushes, “I made her buy her own red dress, except Elise’s is blue.”

 

“Oh my god, should I warn Jake?”

 

“Don’t you dare.”  I laugh at Cade, pointing the sugar spoon at him.

 

“I’ll see you both later.” Elise makes her escape.

 

Smiling at Cade, “Jake’s in for a shock.”

 

“When is she planning the big seduction?” Cade asks, walking over to me.

 

I wrap my arms around his waist, “In a couple of days.  In fact the night before we leave, we’re having a dinner here, just us, Jake and Elise.”  I lift my face for his kiss.

 

“Are you sure you’re alright?”

 

“I really am fine.  I’m just so glad that Nick is behind bars.  Let’s forget about him for now.”  I pinch Cade’s rear.

 

“You’re playing with fire love,” Cade says, huskily.

 

Looking into his eyes, my heart pounds.

 

“You’re sure about this no sex thing?”
  Cade pulls me in closer.  I feel his erection.

 

Placing a kiss on his chest, “Yes, I’m sure, although by then I’m going to be frustrated as hell.”

 

“You’re not the only one.... hey, we could join the mile high club.”

Groaning, “Please don’t put ideas in my head Cade, there are enough there already.”

 

Raising his eyebrow, he lifts me on to the counter top, “What kind of ideas.... anything involving a breakfast bar?”  Cade starts to kiss his way down my neck.  I moan.  He opens my legs and puts his hands on my butt, pulling me in close to his groin.  I feel his penis, throbbing between my legs.

 

“Cade, we really have to stop, because all I can think about is getting you inside me.”
  He slams his mouth down on mine.  I suck his tongue deeper into my mouth.  My arms go around his neck with my fingers running through his hair.  He shivers and rubs his penis against me.

 

Cade feels so good and smells delicious; cologne and man.
  An aphrodisiac.  His tongue is all over the inside of my mouth, tasting me.  His hands are on my butt and my legs are wrapped around his waist as we grind wildly against each other.

 

He moves his hand around to the front and works it up inside my top, caressing first one breast, then the other; sending shock waves straight through me.
  Undoing the front clasp of my bra, he removes his mouth from mine and finds my breast.  First licking, then sucking and nibbling on me, alternating between breasts.  I’m tingling.  I’m so close and about to come, fully clothed…. again!

 

His erection is huge rubbing against me.
 “Cade…. Oh God.... Yes.”  I just about choke out as a powerful orgasm rips through me.  I hear Cade groaning in my ear; his penis jerks against me.

 

Still wrapped in each other’s arms, I can’t think.
  My brain has turned to mush.

 

He groans.
  “We really do have to stop doing this?” Cade gives me another kiss, “I’m forty-five and since I’ve known you I’ve come in my pants twice; that’s only supposed to happen to teenagers.”

 

“That’s what happens when you try to instigate sex when I said ‘no sex’.
  But we didn’t really have sex as there was no penetration, although we both had an orgasm.” I smile, trying not to laugh at the look on his face, “What do you think honey?”

 

“What I think is that you need to stop talking about penetration and orgasm, because in case you haven’t noticed I’m hard as steel, again.
  I want nothing more than to carry you upstairs to make sure penetration takes place.”  He rubs his hidden, but aroused penis against me.  I wiggle on the counter trying to get him inside me.

 

“Oh my.”
   My heart starts to race.

 

Bursting out laughing, “Oh my, is that all you have to say about my condition?”

“Okay honey, how about this.... I want you to strip me naked.  Put your rather large cock inside me.  Then love me hard and fast.”  I smile sweetly.

 

Cade’s eyes darken, because of my teasing, “Go and have a shower.”
  I push him slightly away, laughing, “I’ll stay down here so I don’t distract you.”

 

“Hell....
I think Jake’s just pulled up outside anyway.”

 

“I’ll start dinner.”
 I kiss him one last time before he helps me off the counter.

 

I laugh to myself, watching him walking up the stairs, adjusting his sweats.

 

God, he’s hot and one hell of a sexy guy.  I’m not sure how I got so lucky.

 

~~ Cade ~~

 

After showering, I decide to start packing to keep me out of touching range of Rona for a while.

 

Heck, I have it real bad for her.
  All I want to do is go back downstairs and bury my cock so deep inside her she never wants me to leave.

 

It took me about half an hour to pack.
  Actually it only took me five minutes to pack, but about half an hour to find shorts, t-shirts and a couple of pairs of swimming shorts.

 

Anna had bought the sun cream for me and Jake had left a box of condoms in my office with a sticky note on saying ‘
have fun’!  Didn’t think I would need the latter as we haven’t been using any.

 

We had the discussion about babies, and we agreed not to use anything.

 

The thought of Rona pregnant with my child fills me with so much love for her.  I know this time would be exactly as the first time should have been.... Perfect.

 

Rona has said how much she wants my child growing inside her, and I really hope it happens.
  I’m just not sure how Anna and Beth would feel about having a brother or sister younger than their kids.  Jake would probably laugh his head off.  It sure as hell isn’t a conversation I’m going to have with them.  It had been hard enough having the ‘birds and the bees’ talk when they were growing up.

 

This morning I’ve spent about an hour on the phone to the resort in the Maldives making arrangements for a surprise for Rona.
 I just hope, with all my heart that she co-operates; that was why I’d asked her to buy a white dress.

 

~~ Rona ~~

 

I’ve made lasagna for dinner.  About the only thing I can make from scratch from actual memory.  I also find some garlic bread in the refrigerator along with some salad.  I just hope everyone likes it.

 

“Hi Rona, how are you doing?
  Elise rang and told me what happened,” Jake says, coming in through the back door and going to the sink to wash his hands.

 

“I’m fine really, at least I can res
t a bit now Nick’s behind bars.  Oh, Elise got something to wear today!”

 

Looking over to me, his eyes widen.
 “You won’t be seeing it for a couple of nights though.”  I laugh at the look on his face.

 

“That’s evil....
  where’s my dad gone?”

 

“Having another cold shower probably.”

 

“That’s cruel,” he laughs.

 

“What’s cruel?” Cade
enters the kitchen.

 

Jake’s tongue tied now.
  “Err, nothing.... Something smells good.”

 

“You have about five minutes,
then bring Elise for dinner.”

 

“Okay, see you guys later.”
  He dashes off to his room.

 

I pour a glass of wine and get a beer out the refrigerator for Cade, “Here you go.”
 I pass him the beer, “are you okay?” I ask glancing up into his eyes.

 

“I’m fine love, just looking forward to having you all to myself for a little over two weeks.”
 He places a very gentle, loving kiss to my lips.

 

“When are you going to tell me our destination?”

 

“The night before we go, after we have dinner with Jake and Elise.”

 

“I can’t wait.”  I smile.  “L
et me check dinner, I think I just heard their bedroom door open.”

 

“Hi guys, dinner’s ready.
  Let’s eat.  Grab yourselves a drink then come and sit.”  I remove the dinner from the oven, “I hope everyone likes lasagna.”

 

“Yes,” all three reply.

 

We all had an enjoyable meal with lots of laughter, especially while Cade told me and Elise some stories about Jake when he was a then.” eenager.  Jake blushed on more than one occasion.

 

Heading up to the bedroom real late, I decide it’s best to wear my pajamas to bed and I just hope Cade keeps his shorts on, otherwise I don’t think the no sex ban will last.

 

After a quick shower I put on my sleep shorts and vest top, only to find Cade already showered and in bed, flashing a very naked sexy chest.

 

Groaning, “I hope you have something on under there?” I
climb into bed and peep under the covers, to my relief, he has pajama bottoms on.

 

Laughing at me now, with sparkling green eyes, “Now why would you hope that?”
  He pulls me down into his arms to lie next to him.
