FOLLOW-UP TO SPARKS: http://www.bewellweb.com/dknights/sparks.html DISCLAIMER: Not mine, just playing. PLEASE NOTE THIS STORY IS RATED NC-17 His words made her warm, much more than they should have. She'd been trying very hard not to get too attached to him, and she'd succeeded for the most part, but every once in a while that feeling of connection came up out of nowhere, and she started thinking about him in inappropriate ways. What she was thinking right now was totally inappropriate. She didn't care. "Speaking of layers," she said, "that hooded sweatshirt thing is really not your best look." He tended to dress more formally, she'd noticed, in high-quality shirts that needed cufflinks that he didn't bother to wear. She'd sent him a box of shirts not long ago, to replace the one she'd ruined ripping it off him. She'd picked expensive ones, mostly silk blends, in dark colors, of course, with high collars that would look good under his long, black coat. This hoodie thing looked almost silly, if anything could actually look silly on him. She really wasn't interested in critiquing his fashion sense, though. She slid across the wide seat until she was right next to him, and unzipped the sweatshirt. He had a gray cotton shirt on under it, a lightweight knit, softer than a T-shirt. She slid a hand across his chest and found his nipples already pebbled, ready to play with. "Gwen--" "Is there a problem?" "Well--I'm driving, for one thing." "Looks like a pretty straight stretch of highway, and there's not much traffic this time of night." She trailed her fingers down his stomach. "And, as I recall, I owe you an orgasm." "Two, but who's counting?" "Apparently you are." His pants had some kind of flat metal hook fastener that she was going to have a hell of a time getting undone without his cooperation. "Well, math has always fascinated me," he said. She decided not to bother with the pants and instead peeled up the bottom edge of his shirt. She still had her gloves on, so the lovely jolt of skin-to-skin contact was, for the moment, impossible. But it was still fun to slide the tip of her finger into his navel. He jumped a little, and she wondered why. She was positive she hadn't sparked him. "Gwen..." he said again, his voice a little lower this time. She wished she could see his face, look at his eyes to see if his irises had gone almost black, like they had the last time, in his bedroom. "Yes?" "No offense, but the last time I had sex with you, I couldn't pee for a week." "Do vampires pee?" "Not after they have sex with you, they don't." She couldn't tell if he was joking or not; his voice was too strained with arousal. "I'll keep my gloves on." He turned his head toward her, his eyes glinting. Gwen slid her hand down, over his fly, feeling him literally growing under her fingers. That was a good feeling, she noted. To feel a man's body respond like that to your touch--it was heady. Intoxicating. He'd already been hard when things had gotten underway last time, but this time she was starting more or less from scratch. Or tickle, or caress, or whatever she decided to do with him. She shifted her hand a little, tracing her fingernails down the growing ridge under his fly. He made a noise, a sort of breathy, gaspy sound, and slid down in the seat a little, laying his right arm along the seat back. She realized this was acquiescence--he was moving so she could undo his pants. So she did that, sliding his zipper down, pulling his soft cotton underwear out of the way until she got to his skin. Then, looking at the big, bobbing beast she'd just released, she realized something. "Ummm...I don't really know how to do this." "It's not that hard." "Looks pretty hard to me." "It's not that *difficult*. Especially when you're working with a guy who never gets any." "So you're easy?" "For the most part." He shifted his hips a little, sliding his shaft up against her palm. "Take off that damn glove." "Are you sure?" "Yeah. Who needs to pee?" She obediently slipped off the long, black glove, then stared at her hand. Her fingers were shaking. She had gone hot and weak inside, just thinking about touching him. "What's wrong?" he said. He was far too attuned to her moods for the shortness of their acquaintance. It freaked her out sometimes. "Just adjusting the current," she said, which was half the truth. She flexed her fingers, hoping that made it seem more believable, then reached for him again. And it was skin on skin again, that incredible rush of contact that had become like a drug for her. And she hadn't touched him here last time. She hated to admit it, but she'd actually been a little bit afraid to. Now she wished she had, because this was amazing. The skin here was so soft, so unbelievably soft, like silk or fine velvet filled with steel. He made an odd, choking sound in the back of his throat as she slid her fingers up the length of him, over that incredibly soft skin, to where it made a soft sheath over his glans. She had completely drained the current from her fingers--an effort of will it had taken her literally a decade and a half to perfect--and hesitated a moment just to be sure she could sustain it, before carefully, delicately pushing the velvety hood back and touching the sleek skin beneath. He slammed the back of his head into his headrest, his left hand convulsing on the steering wheel. Gwen glanced at the speedometer. They were going ninety-five. "Might want to ease up on the accelerator." He blinked at the dial. "Yeah, right." She waited until he'd eased back down to eighty, then continued her exploration. It was difficult, holding the current back for this amount of time, but she did it, channeling the flow elsewhere as she carefully tormented him. His hand on the seat back moved forward to cup her head, caressing her hair. Sparks flew when his fingers touched the back of her neck. "Tell me what you like," she said. "What do you want me to do?" "Just grab hold," he said. "Not too tight." She fisted her hand gently around him and he began to thrust through the curl of her fingers, slowly at first, drawing his full length in and out. His face remained straight ahead, but he didn't seem terribly focused on the road. It was a good thing it was a straight shot here, with no landmarks to watch for, no hairpin turns and no stoplights. "Is that good?" she asked, though she could tell by the tension in the body that he was responding appropriately. "Good," he said tersely--another good sign, that tight voice. "Spit on your hand. And there should be some napkins or something in the glove box." This confused her a minute, and she let him go so it could sink in. Then she figured it out--lube, to make it better for him, and something to clean up with after. "I wouldn't worry about it, but these pants have to be dry-cleaned." He sounded almost apologetic. Gwen couldn't help smiling. "Trust you to worry about your clothes." She flexed her fingers, taking advantage of the moment to let the current run. It would be easier to get it back under control if she let it flow for a moment. "Dry cleaning is expensive." He watched her as she sat there doing what probably looked to him like nothing, and finally said, "Could you hurry a little?" "Sorry. Just give me a second." "Are you okay?" She looked up. He was eyeing her with concern, which surprised her. "I'm fine. Just redirecting the current. It's hard to hold it back that long." "Oh. I just--" She opened the glove box and found a stack of Subway napkins. That seemed appropriate. Then she realized Angel hadn't finished his sentence. "You just what?" Behind the Subway napkins were a few from Der Weinerschnitzel. That was even better. She pulled out those. "I don't want you to think you have to do this. You don't owe me anything, Gwen." Gwen spat into her hand, trying not to be too gross about it. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw something twitch, and looked down. Her preparations seemed to be further arousing Angel rather than putting him off. "I know that, Angel." She took a moment to clamp down on the current a little more, then closed her hand again around his long, hard shaft. "You have no idea how much I want this, do you?" She worked him gently, then a little harder. His head fell back again and she heard his teeth clench. "I could sit next to you and hold your hand and that would be incredible, but this is so much better." Her hand moved more easily on him now, sliding over that velvet skin. He pulsed his hips a little, but she had mostly taken over the rhythm by now. His thrusting before had given her the general idea. She pressed her thumb against his glans, sliding over that smooth skin. He gasped and closed his eyes a moment, then snapped them open as if only then remembering he was driving. "You learn fast," he said, his voice breathy. He braced his back against the car seat and bucked under her hand, thrusting harder and faster, eyes glued straight ahead. Scooting as close as she could, she hung onto him as he slid in and out of her fist. "Now," he said suddenly. "God, Gwen, now," and she was so fascinated by the thick length of him plunging through her fist that she barely got the napkins into place in time. She wanted to see this, too, though, feel as much of it as she could. She was half in his lap now, feeling his body clench and shudder, feeling his cock pulse in her hand, watching him spill himself into the paper napkins. Then, suddenly, he laughed. Startled, she looked into his face. She was almost close enough to kiss him. His body loosened against her as he laughed, the last seconds of his orgasm wringing out of him. "God, Gwen," he said. "Der Weinerschnitzel?" She smiled, smugly dried him off, and zipped his pants. END PART TWO
