Hope y'all like it! *-*-*-*-*-* CHAPTER SIX *-*-*-*-*-* ********** Amy ********** Amy woke up from the knock on her door. 'Who would be here this early in the day?' Slipping on a robe, Amy said, "I'm coming!" Opening her door, Amy tried valiantly not to be surprised, "Robert, what are you doing here?" Pulling a bouquet of a dozen aqua roses from behind his back, Robert said sheepishly, "I came by to say I'm sorry." Blushing a little at the gift, she looked up at him, "What for?" Clearing his throat, he said, "For taking..." Holding up her hand, Amy said, "Everything that happened, I wanted to happen. I'm the one who should being saying sorry." Slowly rubbing her shoulders Robert asked, "Why should you be saying you're sorry?" Trying not to concentrate on what his hands were doing to her, Amy said, "For getting you mixed up with... him." Playing innocent, Robert said, "Who, Alan?" Seeing and feeling her nod, Robert continued, "It's alright Amy. I didn't feel bad." Smiling he added close to her ear, "I feel jealous that a guy you've seen twice grabbed your attention faster than I did." Rubbing her hand over his face, Amy looked up at him with bright blue eyes, "Don't worry, you have my *complete* attention." Shyly brushing his lips with hers, she added, "Besides, I think I like flesh and blood better than a specter." Robert grabbed at the hand that was running through his hair. Sometimes she was able to drive him to distraction by just being Amy. Kissing her earlobe, he whispered, "Don't worry, I'm all flesh and blood." Pulling her away, he looked between their bodies. A blush creeping up her face, Amy slowly turned away. Pulling the robe around her tighter, Amy said, "I pray you're not always in that state." Rubbing his arms up and hers, the silk robe stimulating his sensitive fingertips, Robert turned Amy around. Looking into Amy's eyes, he dropped his voice and said, "Only when I'm around you." Unconsciously licking her lips, Amy asked, "Have you had any breakfast?" Gazing at her hungrily, Robert said, "Not yet." Shaking her head at him, Amy stuttered, "O-o-oh no! You stay right where you are!" She sauntered into the living room, facing toward Robert. Looking down at him, she added desperately, "Keep that in your pants and out of mine!" Growling, he grabbed her around the waist and put her on the couch. "That's gonna be hard to do," Robert said, raking his gaze up and down her body, "seeing as how you're not wearing any." "Gee, you noticed, you smart... oh!" Robert started kissing her throat, lazily moving lower to the edge of her robe. "Tell me to stop and I'll stop." Tracing a lazy path around her breast through the robe, Robert lowered his mouth onto hers. Writhing beneath him, Amy sighed in delicious pleasure. Nothing like this had ever happened to her, ever. She was spiraling out of control and loving every minute of it. "Robert?" Lifting his head, Robert gazed at her. If he thought she was beautiful before, he was sorely mistaken. In the throes of desire, Amy was impossible to resist. Kissing the side of her throat, he asked, "Yes?" Lazily kissing him back, Amy somehow got into a sitting position. Keeping a hand on his chest, she cleared her throat. "I need to know something. Is it because I..." Amy broke down in tears. Robert just stared at her for a moment. She could change from laughing to crying faster than anyone he knew could. Cradling her in his arms, he lightly stroked her hair. Dropping kisses on her face, he said, "No, I want you for you. Not because of what you represent." Turning her to face him, he smiled and said, "Would my body lie to you?" Looking down in his lap, Amy smiled through her tears. Although she could dampen spirits faster than a high-pressured hose, she obviously hadn't doused his passions. The evidence of his attraction sprang up for the entire world to see. "I guess you are excited. Has it been very long since, you know, it happened last?" Groaning, Robert covered her lips with his. "No more talking *or* self-doubt. I don't think I can take it." He moved his hands up and down her body, stopping in her sensitive places. Impatiently pushing the robe away, Robert gasped. Amy had *long* legs. Robert swallowed as a dozen fantasies floated through his head; every single one of them concerned her legs. He leaned down and kissed the inside of her knee. Amy jumped. He *had* kissed her knee! He was so very close to... "Robert? What are you doing?" When he didn't answer she tried to pull him up, only to have him kiss the inside of her thigh. "Robert Life!" Looking up, Robert eased up the length of her, probing in a sensitive area. "Hmm? Don't. You. Like. What. I'm. Doing?" Punctuating every word with a kiss, he looked up into her eyes. She so very much wanted to hit him; instead, she wrapped around him. Sweetly she said, "How do you like it?" Groaning, Robert picked her up and carried her into the bedroom. Looking at her, he asked, "Are you sure you want to do this?" Seeing her nod, he helped her out of her clothes. "Robert?" Amy asked softly, "Can you be gentle? This'll be my first time." Pushing a strand of hair out of her face he said, "I'll do my damnedest to make it as painless as possible." ********* Lying replete, Robert looked over at Amy. She had weathered the experience well, given her lack of experience. Gathering her close, Robert stroked her back. Amy stretched up and touched Robert's lips. It was hard to believe this was the same man who had given her the experience of a lifetime. Snuggling up against him, she sighed in contentment. Robert reached down and lifted her chin up. Kissing her, he asked softly, "Do you need to take a bath?" "Yes," Amy said, thinking of the soreness invading her body. "You can join me. You must be a mess too." Wiggling against him, she gave him an offer he couldn't refuse. Drawing in his breath, Robert groaned. She definitely knew how to turn him on. "Okay, I give!" Picking her up, Robert went into the bathroom and deposited her on the floor. "I'll be a minute. I just need to make a phone call." Standing on her tiptoes, Amy laced her arms around his neck and kissed him softly. "I'll be waiting." Grinning down at her, Robert said, "I'll be sure to hurry then." Watching him leave, Amy sighed and turned on the faucet. Humming softly as the tub filled up, Amy got out towels and washcloths. It struck her as funny that she had a lover and only three months after Greg died. Sneaking up behind her, Robert wrapped his arms around her. He could definitely get used to having her pressed up against him naked. Leaning his head down he kissed her neck. "Ready?" Nodding her head, Amy pulled away and sat in the tub. "Oh this feels so good." Turning the water off, she sank low in the tub, letting the water creep up her skin, relaxing her sore muscles. "Do you want me to wash your back?" Robert said startling her. Nodding, Amy sighed. Just to have him near was wonderful. "Robert, do you ever feel like something is too good to be true?" "Yes, all the time." ********** Robert ********** "I'll call you later, Amy said from the doorway. "I don't want to take too much time from your work." Turning her head up, Robert softly kissed her lips. "You'll never take too much time from me." Waving, he added, "I'll call you later." Biting her lip, Amy said, "I won't be home tonight. I have to go to my friend Raye's." Looking over his shoulder, Robert said, "I'll call you tomorrow then." Rounding the corner and taking one last look, Robert held his breath until Amy walked back inside. Leaning back against the wall, he let out a sigh of relief. Christmas was a few weeks away and he had wanted to get Amy something special. Smiling to himself, he thought, 'I might have already given her something special.' Walking home, Robert hailed a cab. Feeling someone place a hand on his shoulder, Robert turned around and beamed, "Michelle!" Shaking her finger at him, Michelle said, "Do you know what you did this morning?" Smiling bemusedly, Robert said, "Yeah, I know what I did this morning." Smacking him with a newspaper, Michelle said, "Look at this." Gazing at the front page, the headline read, "Life Found on Mercury!" Gazing at Michelle, he asked, "You knew this would happen, didn't you?" Looking at him wide-eyed and smacked him upside the head. "Well, duh! It would be even *if* Trista didn't tell me." Draping his arm around her, Robert said, "If you weren't my sister in a past life, I'd clock you." Walking off he asked, "How *long* have you known this will happen between us?"
