| Kevin left her side only to walk toward the french doors, opening the blinds allowing the moonlight to illuminate the room. He then lit all the candles..."I don't want lights on...but I want to see you....is this ok?" "It's perfect," she sighed, meeting his gaze, "you're perfect....." "No...I'm far from perfect...but us.....we're perfect and God help me...I love you so much. Just look at you....," he stepped toward her. She was one of the sexiest women he'd ever seen...and she didn't even have to try. She was soft..she was real...she was everything that reminded him of being home. "You're so beautiful.....I want you every time I see you." He closed the distance between them and took her hands in his raising them to his face...his eyes remaining fixed on hers the entire time. "Do you love me?" his lips pressed against her knuckles. "You know I do.....," a gasp escaping her as he gently opened one of her hands and kissed her palm. "Please say it", he murmured as he slowly traced her fingers with his tongue. "Kevin.....," his name spoken on a gentle moan, "I love you....." When he felt her sway slightly against him, he wrapped an arm around her, pulling her closer to him. "Tell me you want me....I need to hear you say it...," his voice seductive, yet pleading as he gently pulled one finger at a time into his mouth, never letting his eyes leave hers. "Oh God Kevin I do.....," her reply a breathless whisper. "I want you like I've never wanted any man before...you have to know that. What's wrong.....?" Before she could say another word, Kevin shook his head slightly, touched a finger to her lips and took a shaky breath. "Kaylee....I've never felt this way before...I...I'm trying to be so smooth right now," he smiled slightly, "trying to be all sexy and shit...tryin' to seduce you...but, truth be told....I'm scared to death..and I don't know what to do," he sighed. "How am I gonna let you go tomorrow?" his eyes shining as tears slipped onto his cheeks. Kevin Richardson...multi-talented recording artist...adored by millions of women..strong...determined..handsome..self confident...suddenly found himself reduced to tears by the love of and for a woman. He wasn't sure when it happened, but he knew that during their stay in Kentucky, he had fallen deeply in love. She slipped her arms around his neck, pulling his face closer to hers, as she laced her fingers in his hair. "I'm just as afraid as you are baby, but for right now...there's just tonight...no tomorrow," she murmured against his skin, tiny butterfly kisses capturing each tear as it fell. Her lips finally settling on his with a tender kiss. Kevin could hear the pounding of his heart, the sound of his breathing echoing in his ears. He thought words would help, but none were adequate. He studied her face, tracing his fingers over her eyes, her nose, her lips. Suddenly every sappy love song he'd heard...even the ones he'd written... had meaning. And at that moment, the man who prided himself on his words, was speechless. He took a step back, letting one hand linger on her cheek as he tried to unbutton his shirt with the other. Kaylee covered his shaking hand with hers, her voice and words sending a shiver through his body. "Please.....let me do it......let me undress you Kevin." He was barely able to nod his head. She placed his arms at his sides, and her fingers set to work on the buttons of his shirt. He dropped his head to watch her and gently stroked his thumb over her cheek. Sliding her hands over his shoulders, she pushed his shirt off and dropped it onto the floor. Reaching down to his waist, she pulled his tee shirt out of his jeans and up over his head. He drew in his breath as she flattened her palms against his hard chest, gently caressing him...feeling the softness of his skin. "Kevin...I wish...I really wish you could see you... like I see you...know you like I know you....then you would never....ever wonder about my feelings." Her hands made their way down his broad chest, her fingers dancing over his abdomen...finally reaching his belt. She pressed her lips to his chest, letting her tongue trace the deep patterns of muscle, as she unbuckled his belt. Lightly her tongue grazed his nipple, his head dropping as a shiver ran through him. Tonight .. to Kaylee .. was all about reassuring him...pleasing him...letting him hear, see and feel her love. She continued teasing the sensitive areas of his chest as her fingers opened the buttons on his jeans. "Tonight Kevin......let me.....love you. Can you do that? Can you let me show you how I feel...let it be all about you baby," her breath hot on his skin as she moved her lips to his neck. Slowly she backed him up, gently pushing him down onto the bed. His breath caught in his throat as he wrapped his arms around her and rested his cheek on her stomach...breathing in her sweet feminine scent. "It's up to you Kevin.....," she slowly stroked his head and face, "please say yes...." His voice muffled against her, his breathing considerably labored, "....yes..show me......" "Sshh...just lay back," her one hand caressing his face as she pressed him back onto the mattress with the other. "Lift for me handsome.....," her command soft. He opened his legs and lifted his hips off the mattress as she slipped her hands into the waistband of his jeans..grasping his jeans and boxers, she slid them down over his hips..down his legs..and off, leaving him naked and exposed on the bed. Kaylee had no idea that by him giving her control, he had opened more of his heart to her. Kevin felt as though his emotions were even more exposed than his body. He raised himself on his elbows as she stood up and slowly removed her clothes. He sighed as her last article of clothing dropped to the floor. The moonlight silhouetting her, reflecting off her soft skin....her face full of love, Kevin had never seen a more beautiful sight. They locked gazes, each one slowly absorbing exactly what was happening between them...this was no longer a seduction, this was love in it's purest form. "Oh ...hell.....," his deep voice raspy and breathless, as she slipped between his legs and ran a trail of kisses over his hard calves and up onto his muscular thighs. Slowly she traced her tongue across his abdomen, dipping into his belly button. He dropped his head back on the bed, unable to control the feelings that were running through his body. Her tongue tracing his tattoos, her hands traveling over his legs...her breasts caressing his erection. He was becoming even harder as his hips lifted off the bed, pressing himself to her chest. As her hands settled on his thighs, she brought her arms tight to her body, causing her breasts to envelope him as she gently rocked against his hardness. He lifted himself slightly to watch her. "What're you doin' to me...," he could barely get the words out. "Do you remember when I asked you that same thing....our first time together," her eyes meeting his, her movements against him continuing. He nodded his head, as he fought to control the movements of his hips. "I think your answer was.....," she pulled away slightly and ran her tongue over the length of him, "lovin' you. Now....lay back....." Too overcome with the sensations she was creating to even try arguing, and not sure he even wanted to, he dropped his head back onto the bed. She took him on a slow erotic climb with her mouth..her tongue...her hands. His head was spinning....he fought his body when she moaned against him. His need to please her was slowly overpowering his need to be pleased. He raised himself onto his elbows, then slowly into a sitting position. "Shit," he muttered as the movement of sitting up caused an entirely different sensation to run through his body. "Something wrong...," she teased, "doesn't this feel good....tell me....," her tongue caressing the tip of him. "Baby...you... feel.... so damn good," his breath catching as he reached down and grabbed a fistful of her hair. Her hands cupped his firm rear as she lifted him closer to her. He fell back onto the bed, his hand fisting the comforter as he muttered a string of obscenities. Struggling to slow his body down, no matter how good her mouth felt, he was aching to be inside her...to share their love. Taking a deep breath, he sat upright...slid his arms under hers and pulled her onto him as he fell back onto the bed. She raised up onto her forearms, her fingers tracing small patterns on his chest. Her lips were slightly parted, her cheeks flushed....hair tossed wildly around her face and when he looked into her eyes he saw so much more than passion reflected there...he saw love. "Kevin....." He shook his head and pressed his finger to her lips. "Ya know...," his voice soft, "I haven't really kissed you since we walked in here." She reached up gently kissing the corner of his mouth. "I know...I wondered when you'd notice," her tongue lightly grazing his lips. "Damn.....," he moaned softly as she tried to suppress a smile, "we better fix that...kiss me woman." "Oh....just a little demanding, aren'tcha Richardson?" He stuck his tongue out at her, "smartass, aren'tcha Barrone?" His eyes widened as she lowered her mouth over his tongue. The shock quickly gave way to a more intimate reaction as she sucked on his tongue. He parted his lips to deepen the kiss. A kiss that had started out sloppy and silly, rapidly became very deep, wet and sensuous. Kaylee broke the kiss first..."I wanted this to be about you Kevin.....why'd you stop me?" "Because I want this to be about us," his breath caressing her cheek as he moved to nuzzle her neck. "I can see how much you love me....baby...it's in your eyes," he sighed deeply, as he slid them up the bed, gently laying her next to him. "But, I think it's time we share....and after I'm done lovin' you....WE will make love...to each other," his voice slightly muffled as he kissed down her neck. "I love you," he whispered as he laved his tongue over her breast...gently suckling. Kaylee moaned and arched her back in response allowing him greater access to her, as he pulled her further into his mouth...his tongue flicking over her nipple until it hardened. "I love you...," he muttered repeatedly as he continued trailing hot kisses down her body. "I love you....," as he slipped his tongue along the core of her sexuality, "....so much." Kaylee reached for his head, running her fingers through his hair. She had never experienced feelings this intense...his love took her to places she had never been.... "Oh my God," her voice breathless, as he looked up and locked eyes with her. "Feels good, doesn't it," his deep voice creating tremors...his goatee tickling her sensitive skin...his mouth covering her....his teeth nipping...his tongue dancing against her...in her... "Good....doesn't even....come close...oh Kevin......please....." Knowing she was close to her release, he moved up her body...hooking her leg with his hand and bringing it around his waist. "Please what," his breath hot on her skin...his hardness gently pressed against her. "Make love to me.....," her voice a gentle plea. He shook his head, softly smiling at her...."No Kaylee....with you........," tenderness filling his voice, "God..you're so beautiful....I want you...I need to be inside you...." While never breaking eye contact, he joined his body with hers...hard melting into soft...man against woman. Their bodies moved in perfect rythym as she wrapped her other leg around his waist...her hips raising to meet his every thrust. He buried his face in her neck as she dropped her hands to his firm rear...pulling him closer and tighter into her. "Want more, baby?" his hips rotating as he rocked himself inside her. She blushed, but nodded as she bit her lip. "Harder Kevin.....I want to still feel you tomorrow.....when I'm gone." "Turn over....," his voice husky as he withdrew and sat up. "Lift up baby," his demand firm yet gentle. As she rose up onto her knees, Kevin reached for a pillow and placed it under her. Staring down at her, he moaned loudly...the sight before him almost more than even he could handle. He held her hips as he entered her swiftly. "Jesus....," he muttered, as he filled her completely. He wrapped his one arm around her and leaned over dropping kisses on her back. His other hand sliding down to her soft curls as he slowly circled his thumb over her. She met each thrust, pressing herself tighter to him. His thrusting became stronger as she urged him on. As he felt her reaching the point of no return, he withdrew almost completely. "Don't Kevin...please don't stop.....," her words muffled into the pillow as she tried to turn her head to see him. "No baby....believe me....I'm not stopping....," he growled as he thrust harder and deeper. "I want you to....," he thrust again...deeper...harder...driven by a need to seal himself to her, he thrust harder, pressing his mouth to her shoulder...mumbling..."feel me...in you......every day....." "Every day Kevin.....I love you so much....," her voice strained as she ground her hips back onto him. As he felt her start to tense under him, his thrusting became more powerful. Each stroke of his thumb, matched the thrusting of his hips...he held her tighter to him as she called out his name, her body trembling as wave after wave of pleasure rolled over her. Kevin followed quickly and with one last thrust, his body was overcome with a tremendous climax that was brought about not just by a physical release, but by an emotional release as well. As he rested his cheek on her back, he realized that in the course of a week, he had come to learn that an orgasm reached through love was overwhelming...leaving him weak and vulnerable...yet totally filled and complete. Neither of them spoke or moved for a minute until Kevin finally slid onto his side next to her. Removing the pillow from under her...he pulled her closer. Wrapping both arms around her, he kissed the top of her head as she snuggled into his embrace. "I miss you already," he whispered into her damp hair. "We can do this Kevin....we can," her chin trembling against his chest as she fought to overcome her emotions. "Please....don't cry...," his voice slow and full of emotion, "we can do this...two weeks baby...that's all...two weeks." "R...rrr....right...two weeks...then you'll be in Pittsburgh," she nodded her head vigorously against his shoulder, "and..." He sat up, leaning on his elbow resting his head in his hand, he gently caressed her face and kissed each tear off her cheeks. He placed a finger under her chin, "Kaylee....we WILL make it through these next two weeks. We'll both be busy....and....hey...look at me..." Her emotion filled brown eyes met his tear filled green eyes. "What? Why you lookin' at me like that baby," his head tilted to the side. "Kevin....I never once look at you....that you don't take my breath away," her emotions catching in her throat. She studied every line of his face...his strong jaw...his high cheekbones...his soft skin... slowly tracing her fingers through his goatee...she smiled. "What're you smiling 'bout woman? I'm dyin' here...and you're smilin'." She slowly shook her head and gave him a half smile. "Nothing...I can't believe I would think of this now...," she sighed, "I was just wondering if you were ever going to shave this off.....that's all." "Baby," a smile touching his mouth, "you SAW those videos from waaaay back in the days of 'no facial hair' and it wasn't pretty. And, hell....I shave it off in the morning...and it's back by night time anyway." "Oh really.....," she looked up at him through wet spiked lashes. "Yeah...cause I'm just such a manly kinda man, ya know," he rubbed his nose against hers...and kissed each eye. "Don't go to sleep Kevin," her tone suddenly serious. "Where'd that come from," his expression confused as he brushed his thumbs under her eyes. "Just stay up..let's spend every minute we have awake...and together," she ducked her forehead onto his chest. He lifted her face to his, kissing her gently. "You know....if I stay awake...that means something else stays awake," his voice husky and seductive. "Can you handle makin' love all night," his lips close to hers as he slid his leg between hers. "Oh yeah handsome...I can handle that.....," she reached her hand up to the back of his neck and pulled him down to her....."now kiss me...." "Kaylee....don't ever forget how much I love you." "Never Kevin....but just in case...why don't you show me....make sure I remember," the seductive tone of her voice causing everything that made him a "man" to stir. "Trust me baby....you won't ever forget...," his words a whisper against her lips as his mouth captured hers in a searing kiss. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Their night was spent making love...much like their first night together. They both fought sleep until Kaylee finally surrendered...dozing off around 6am. Kevin watched her sleeping and smiled. As much as he loved to sleep...he loved the woman in his arms even more. He looked at her and his heart filled. Any other man might have watched her sleeping...taking the opportunity to capture everything about her to memory, but he'd already done that...the night he stayed at her townhouse ... when she invited him to share her bed. That was the night he knew he loved her...the night he realized that his life would never be the same...the night he realized he would never settle for anything less than the love of this woman. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The ride to the airport was quicker than Kevin ever thought it would be....their goodbye was harder than any he ever remembered. Just two weeks. He lied...it wasn't just two weeks...it would be the hardest two weeks of his life. He waited with her at the security check point until it was finally time to leave. Their goodbyes were quick. Kevin knew he couldn't linger, his heart was already breaking. Kaylee knew if she lingered, she'd never let go of him. A kiss goodbye...a promise that they would talk every night...and Kaylee was gone. Kevin went home to his mother and cried. Kaylee saw Ali at the airport and cried. When Ali saw Kaylee, she hugged her close...and cried for her and Kevin. It wasn't until they arrived back home that Kaylee was able to share her week with Ali. They laughed...they cried...they sighed. It was everything that Ali expected. She saw the way Kaylee and Kevin looked at each other from the very beginning. She knew they were in love long before they were willing to admit it to each other. What Ali also knew, and most definitely wasn't looking forward to sharing, were her concerns. Her concerns that on at least three different occasions, Jeff had been at their home...watching...and waiting. BACK HOME NEXT |
