FEEDBACK: To Amanda J Frechin
After they had drilled Wills about the murder of his wife, Denby and
Russell walked out of the room stressed. After that last night, things
were bound to be tense, especially with Andy hanging around them and
making sure they did nothing that wasn't professional.
Andy's dislike...hate for Harry was evident and he made no attempt to
hide it. He glared at him in the hall, made effort to come into rough
physical contact with him and didn't speak.
When the whole trying day was over, Harry approached Diane in the
lockers.
"Diane, would you like to come over for dinner? Discuss our 'victories'
of the day?" This time his sarcasm was polite and cute.
She sighed and slammed her locker shut. Leaning against it, she faced him
with exhaustion on her face.
"Harry, I'm sorry but I'm really tired and need to think things through.
Last night was wonderful, but things can't move at that pace. I'm just
not up to the emotional stamina that it doesn't take to have a
fuck-buddie relationship."
Harry grasped her hand in his, playing with her knuckles and distracting
her from her train of thought. When she looked into his eyes, she got
mental pictures of him laying in bed, aroused and staring at her body
across the room, beckoning her to his side.
"Diane, that's not the relationship I want. I thought you knew that. I
just wanted to know if you would like to come over and split some salad
and maybe wine-" he stopped for a moment. "Well, given both of our pasts,
maybe not wine. Just to relax and find out more about each other. Last
night at dinner was great and so was the sex, but I want to know
everything about you. I want to know," he said, drawing in closer. "every
little thought that goes through that pretty head of yours." And closer.
"What you dream about in bed at night." And even closer. "The first boy
who broke your heart and how much you really cared about him."
Finally, he stopped moving. His face was close enough to where she could
feel his breath on her face. He flicked his eyes closed and leaned in to
kiss her. She let him and kissed him back. When they broke apart, he
smiled at her, an old Denby smile, and a glint of mischief in his mood eyes.
"I want to know what my kiss does to you."
Diane couldn't go to his house that night, she had told him. She was much
too worn out. Okay, he could understand that. But his body ached for her.
He had truly meant what he had said to her. He wanted to know every
detail about her thoughts and feelings. He wanted to know her; Diane.
He drove home from the precinct slowly. After pulling into his driveway
and almost forgetting to put the parking break on, he climbed up the
meagre two stairs to his apartment; 22B.
When he opened the door, his ever faithful cat, Virginia, trotted up to
him, expecting her nightly treat of tuna and a good petting session. But
the only thing Harry wanted to pet was Diane.
After changing into more comfortable clothes, he settled in on the couch
to read the latest book he had checked out, "What Dreams May Come." He
hadn't seen the movie so the thing wasn't that predictable.
A sharp knock on the door several hours later jerked him out of the
novel. He cursed under his breath, wondering who would disturb him
at...2:00 in the morning.
To say the least he was surprised when he found Diane at his door. He
stared for a moment before her voice knocked him out of his haze.
"Are you going to let me in or do we have to have a...what do you call
it? Ah, yes a priori."
He let a half-assed smile flicker onto his face.
"No Diane, we don't have to have one for the orgasms I experienced by
your hands will cover you and any...exchanges or favours for a good year
or two."
She blushed a little at the mention of the orgasms. There had been many
of them, in fact. He knew for a fact that she had came at least three
times.
But she didn't let the subject of sex, orgasms or priories linger.
Instead, she slipped into the room and shook off her coat.
"I've been thinking about you for the last couple hours or so. What you
said."
She paused for a moment, giving the desired affect.
"And I realized....I realized that I don't want to stay at home, alone,
in bed thinking about you. I want to be here, with you, having sex or
talking or whatever the hell it is normal people do in a relationship."
He studied her for a second, and then walked back over to the couch.
When he sat down on it, he offered her a remark.
"Now now Diane, I never did stake a claim at being normal."
She smiled to herself. Then setting the coat down that she held in her
arms on the table, she walked over to him.
"Denby?"
"Yes?"
"Shut the fuck up and hold me or get me a drink."
"Yes sir."
Diane and Harry sat before a fireplace with a small pasta salad Harry had
in the fridge and some 'candy wine' as Harry called it. They both only
allowed each other half a glass.
Harry found himself even more fascinated with Diane as their
'relationship' (if you could call it that) progressed. The sex part had
been easy; now came the difficulties. He wanted to know Diane, and when
he first met her, thought he did. Now he was finding that this woman
before him was just a sarcophagus; there were many layers to the
beautiful Diane Russell.
The firelight was catching the auburn highlights in her mass of curly
hair, and it glittered there, making Harry want to photograph it. She
wore flannel pyjama bottoms and a black top. She was laid out directly in
front of the fire so it warmed her back and he was stretched out so he
could face her, the fire warming his face.
They spoke about nothing and anything at all; weather, family, politics
and holidays. Denby hadn't had much 'holiday spirit' growing up though
Diane had. Her family was rich and had lavish parties and the gifts were
as well. But her memories were not happy, the majority of them anyway.
He enjoyed the lovely manner in which she smiled and was a bit taken aback
when she asked him to take off his shirt. But he obliged, and she scooted
over to his backside, adjusting their positions so their backs were both
to the fire.
She urged him to lay on his stomach on the carpet and he did, sighing
like a contented cat when she grabbed some hand lotion off the nearby
coffee table and rubbed it into the warm skin of his back.
"I wish you would do this more often."
"Harry, how long have we been intimate?"
"Maybe two days."
"Right."
She first ran her hands lightly over his skin, raking the nails gently at
his lower neck. Then she began massaging in slow circles with her palms.
"You're not as tense as I thought you would be."
"You relax me."
His voice was soft and it seemed almost faint. She did relax him. His
back was smooth and fragrant from the lotion, and her hands glided easily
over his muscles and soft skin. Leaning forward, she first kissed his
hair and neck then pressed down to pop his back.
He grunted in reply, his vocal skills gone from her gentle ministrations.
She massaged deeply for the next few minutes, brushing over his skin with
more force as she got to know what he liked and responded to. And
responded he did, he kept squirming and after a while reached down to
adjust himself. She smiled to herself a little, then got off his butt to
kiss him.
When he rolled onto his side dragging her with her, she curled her hands
into his hair and gave his scalp a nice rub. He sighed again and closed
his eyes. She worked mindlessly for a few minutes until she became aware
of the soft steady breathing coming from him.
Stopping, she laid down as close to him as she could get and went to
sleep beside her sleeping lover.
Diane woke up with a small kink in her back. She soon realized why. She
was in the spoon position with Harry and suspected that she had been all
night. With great pleasure, she found that she was the only one awake and
therefore she could study him while he slept.
After she crawled out of his embrace, she found that he slept peacefully,
his arms at his sides where she put them, and a small smile on his
handsome face. It was only know that Diane realized how truly beautiful
Harry could be; inside and out.
If only he would let the good side show, she thought. She had learned
that after his ex-wife Rossy had left him and taken the two kids that he
had let himself go. Kind of like how she did before she met Bobby. Only
he didn't have someone like Bobby to pull himself out of the mess. She
corrected that thought; no, he had her, Diane.
He sighed in his sleep, something he did without thinking in the day as
well. It had always caused her heart to jump and this was no exception.
Without thinking, she leaned in and caught his sleeping mouth with her
own, and kissed him awake.
When he did wake, it took him a moment to distinguish what was happening.
After he did though, he groaned low in his throat and wrapped his strong
arms around her.
"Mmm, what a pleasant way to wake up." He smiled at her when they broke
apart.
She grinned cheekily at him and cuffed his head.
"I thought you might like it."
"I can think of something I would like even more, you know."
"Oh, really? What's that?"
He grinned and flipped her over without warning onto her back. After
giving her the sexiest look she had ever seen in her life, he ripped off
her shirt.
"So...Diane? How do you feel about....sex?"
"Hmmm....I really can't say. If it's between you and I then I'll have to
say..."
"Yes?"
"Fuck me before we got to work."
"You wish is my command, milady."
He kissed his way from her mouth to toes with restrained urgency. She
groaned when his tongue flicked out of his mouth at choice spots. She
grabbed his head and clutched it to her when he flick/kissed over her
labia and then her clitoris.
He lingered there for a few minutes, teasing her to the brink of climax
and then stopping. She was begging for it this time, panting and writhing
all over the floor.
"Please Denby, I w-want you inside of me now!"
Diane would beg and plead put never would he draw himself up to enter
her. It was hard as hell for him as well; he thought he was going to
explode inside of his pants. He drew himself up finally just to get the
damn things off, and she reached for him.
He froze dead when she started to fondle him. After a beat, he closed his
eyes, and leaned into her touch. She got up from the floor to give him
the same delicious torture he gave her.
God willing, when her perfect lips closed over him, how he wanted to come
in her mouth. But he restrained himself from it, knowing that he wanted
to be inside of her for it and wouldn't have time to do it again.
He stopped her when it became too much and hoisted her on top of him. She
rubbed his shaft against her for a second, her eyes becoming glassy and
then closing from the feeling.
With one downward thrust, he was inside of her. God, she was so tight and
perfect. He thought that the pleasure would diminish after he made love
to her at least once, but he was wrong. Gloriously wrong.
He thrust upward against her heated downward strokes, and the upside of
his penis grazed her most sensitive spot. She threw her head back and
cried out, and he knew she was at the door to coming. A few more upward
strokes and she was going to be lost.
He flipped her over, wanting to be on top to deepen the pleasure. She
wrapped her slender legs around him and welcomed it. She clawed at his
back when he slowed the pace down, wanting to tease her. But when he
resumed, he put everything into making her scream when she came.
She felt it begin at the pit of her stomach and travel down to her womb.
When her orgasm rocked her, she was completely oblivious to the sweet
agony of his. She ground her hips up and rode it out for all it was
worth.
It was over, they smiled at each other, and to Denby's surprise, it
hadn't taken that long and she hopped up to take a much needed shower.
But before the door to the bathroom closed, she turned her head and
winked provocatively at him.
