The Turn of An
Overly Friendly Card
(Part Two)

© 2000, dragon

Alex wandered down the hallway absently shuffling the deck of cards in hands.  It was a graceful motion.  She could even bridge them without much effort as she walked.  A faint smile curled up the corners of her mouth.  She stopped outside Nick's door for a moment.  She heard the spings of his bed squeek as he shifted in his sleep.  She started to move away from the door when they squeeked again.  She got a mischievous look on her face and listened.  Squeek.  Thirty seconds.  Squeek.  Thirty seconds.  Squeek.

Her hands were fanning and playing with the cards as she listened to Nick tossing and turning.  She rapped softly on the door, just loud enough for Nick to hear if he wasn't asleep.

Silence.

Squeek -- squeek.  He was moving.  The door opened. Alex was standing there looking amused, her hands gracefully shuffling a deck of cards. Nick scowled at her.

"What?"

"I'm having a hard time getting to sleep. I thought i'd see if anyone else was awake."

"Uh.  OK.  I'm awake."

"Gin Rummy?" she offered.

"Poker."

"I don't play poker."

Nick grinned suddenly, looking a lot younger than his years.  "I'll teach you.  That should bore us both into sleepy land."

Alex accepted with a laugh and entered the room.

They sat on the floor, Alex with her long legs curled to the side, Nick semi-indian style.  He shuffled and dealt the cards.   He made her promise not to peek at his while he opened a window.  "Stuffy in here," he commented, dropping his worn terry cloth robe on the floor and sitting down again.  The dim light of his room reflected off his well muscled torso.

Alex fanned herself with her cards.  My, it was getting warm.  She looked at her hand.  King, Queen, Jack, Queen, King. Well.  She rearranged it in pairs, only it didn't look right, so she put them back the way they had been.  Was it her imagination,or did there seem to be some self satisfied smiles on those face cards? She looked to Nick expectantly.

Nick, his attention distracted by the soft glint of light off Alex's riotous curls, turned his attention to the cards with a jerk.  queen, Jack, Queen, Jack, King.  Two pair.  That was good.  Very good.  Alex couldn't possibly have a better hand. He looked mischievous.  "What are we gonna bet?" he said softly.

Alex looked at him.  She was trying for innocent.  She was almost making it.  "I dunno.  I didn't bring anything with me."

"We could play strip --"

"OK."

If her answer startled him, he didn't show it.  But he was suddenly wondering if he should have kept his robe on.  He was wearing only pajama bottoms at this point.  They each discarded one card and took one each. Alex added a 2.  Nick added an Ace.  Neither had a better hand than they had previously held.

"I call," Nick said and laid his cards on the carpet.  Alex was clad in pajamas, robe and slippers.  It might take a while to get anywhere.

Alex laid her cards down.

Nick blinked.

"Uh -- OK.  Beginner's luck with a vengeance.  Kings beat Queens.  Uhm -- "  He blushed slightly as he met Alex's suddenly hot looking gaze.  He licked his lips nervously.  Alex licked hers -- hungrily.  "Uhm -- Alex --"

"Mmmm?"

"I'm -- uh -- I mean -- "

"Yes?" she encouraged him, noticing a bulge under the light fabric of his pajamas that hadn't been there a few moments earlier.  "You need some help?" she asked huskily, getting to her knees and moving across the intervening empty space.

"No -- I -- Well -- Maybe --"  Her hands on his bare shoulders were sending all kinds of signals, not the least of which were the ones telling his groin that it was time to play.  He felt he should be embarrassed.  Then Alex's hot mouth was on his and he was entirely too busy with Alex to be embarrassed.

He felt her hands at the waist of his pants, untying the string that held them to his waist.  Then she was sliding them over his heavily muscled ass and down his long, well muscled legs.  Her mouth traveled south, following her hands, and stopped on his engorged cock.  The soft touch of lips and tongue nearly undid him right there.  His knees buckled. Alex caught him and they moved to the bed.  She teased the sensitive skin of his throat, then moved to his chest, sucking and nipping with her strong teeth at his already extended nipples.  He groaned under her weight.  She smiled again and went to the seat of his need.

Gently, oh so gently, she licked all around his stiffened shaft, tickling his balls with the tip of her tongue.  Then she took him in her mouth, tongue and lips and -- oh, wow.  He stiffened further, fighting to keep from thrusting hard into her hot, teasing mouth.  She released him, straddled his hips and grinned down at him.

"You're still dressed," he pointed out.

"So, undress me," she encouraged, shrugging out of her robe.  

There was a small popping sound as the buttons of her pajamas gave way under Nick's insistant assault.  He was a little less destructive getting her out of the bottoms.  God, she was beautiful, all dark gold and honey from top to bottom.  "Ready?"

"Don't be a tease," she responded, wrapping those long legs around him and pulling him into her.  Oh, yes, she was ready for him.

For a few moments, there was no sound but breathing as he thrust into her and she rose to meet him.  Then the tension built toward unbearable and then met in the release of climax.  They fell together in a tangle of sweaty limbs.  Alex slid her arms around Nick and pulled him into a hug. She kissed him one last time.  "That was nice -- that was really -- yawn -- really -- yawn -- mmmm.  Yeah."

Nick nodded his agreement.  It felt so good to just lie there, buried inside her still.  He drifted off to sleep.  He stirred only a little as Alex slid off of him and out of bed.  Sleepily, she gathered up her things and left the room.  She tiptoed down the corridor, slid into her own room and into her bed without even bothering to put her pajamas back on.  she fell into dreamless slumber with a grin on her face.

On Nick's floor, the forgotten deck of cards gathered itself together, neatly stacked and settled down to wait.
