Time Goes On

~ CHAPTER 14 ~

I had at some point fell asleep and wasn't sure for how long. I also wasn't sure what had woken me up. I had wet drops on my t shirt from the tears and my face was red and puffy. I walked into the bathroom and splashed some cold water on my face.
As I brought the towel lower when I was drying off, I noticed the redness and swelling was almost completely gone from my mouth and the bruise on my wrist was fading. My throat was no longer sore and I wasn't in as much pain. I was able to walk better. I slowly opened the bedroom door and walked into the living room.
I stopped in my steps when I heard his voice say "Hi sleeping beauty." I looked up and Zac was walking toward me with his arms out. He embraced me in a gentle hug and immediately started crying. I put my arms around him and he slid to the floor on his knees, his arms wrapped tightly around my waist. I held onto the back of his neck and softly ran my fingers through his hair. I felt tears falling down my face.
His words were strained through his sobs. "Baby, oh god baby. I love you. I love you, don't leave me. Oh God, I'm sorry! I'm so sorry! I'll never hurt you again I swear! I love you baby. I'm so, so sorry!" I just held him and waited for him to compose himself. When he finally let go of me, he took my hands and looked up. Both of us had tears falling and I didn't know what I was supposed to say.
"Zac, I know you didn't mean to. I love you and I'm not gonna leave." He got to his feet and hugged me tightly, then pulled away and kissed my lips softly. He kissed my eyes, my nose, my forehead and cheeks then my lips again and finally pulled me into another hug. He was gentle and his eyes filled with regret and sadness. He softly whispered into my ear "I need you. I need you to want me again." He began softly kissing my neck. I tilted my head back as my hands rested on the back of his shoulders. He took full advantage of the unlimited access he now had to my neck. He kissed softly all over both sides and I felt his tongue lick slowly across my throat. His hands went up and down my back with a passionate pressure.
As he began kissing my lips again, I dug into his back with my fingernails. A light groan came from his lips and he suddenly and gently took me to the floor. His hands touched me as though they'd never touched anyone. He kissed me and began to take my shirt up and over my head. Once it was off he began kissing my stomach and chest.He slowly slid his finger tips under my bra straps and as he pulled them off, his lips followed them. I began kissing his neck and face. He raised up on his knees and slowly pulled off his shirt. He came closer and kissed me and then pulled me to my feet as he too stood up. "C'mere baby. Oh my sweet, sexy angel, I've missed you!" he said as he smiled and picked me up.
He carried me to the bedroom where he easily kicked the cracked door open the rest of the way and then leaned on it to shut it again. He carried me over to the bed and laid me down. He took my bra off and then climbed on top of me and began to tug at my jeans while kissing me. His tongue and mouth was so warm and he smelled of my favorite men's cologne and coffee. He unzipped my jeans and slowly pulled them off.His hands slowly went up and down my legs and as he pulled my panties off he stood up. "God, you're beautiful." he said. He smiled as he took off his jeans and socks. He pulled the blanket back on the unmade bed and ushered me under it then climbed in next to me. He put his arms around me and pulled me close as we kissed each other and I slowly rolled on top of him and pulled his boxers off. I giggled playfully as I threw them on the floor. He smiled and ran his hand threw my hair as he shifted on his back. I took him into my mouth and a sound almost like a scream escaped him as his closed his eyes and tilted his head back. He grabbed my face and pulled me up on top of him and we both let out deep moans as he slid into me. I whined a bit and he reached up and took my face in his hands. "Does it hurt? We can stop if it hurts." he said breathless. I looked into his eyes and saw the new concern and the gentleness that had always been there. "No, it's ok." I said barely able to breathe. God I just wanted him so bad. I slowly began to move as his hands gripped my back and then my thighs as we became desperate. The movements faster and the sweat appearing on both of us. Suddenly a release that brought pure and deep satisfaction to us both. I fell onto him and was immediately turned over to have him on top and kissing me again. He lifted his head and I had a hand on each side of his neck. He looked at me for a moment then kissed my forehead.
Before either of us caught our breath he asked "Are you sure it didn't hurt you?" I just shook my head and whispered "It didn't." He then gave me a long, deep kiss."I love you. "he said as he laid his head on my shoulder." I love you too. "I whispered. "Mmmm, I think we need a shower." he said as he rolled off of me and onto the bed. "Ok. I'll go take one first, then you can take one."
I giggled as I walked into the bathroom. I was about two minutes into my shower when I felt arms slid around me. "OH DAMMIT!" I shouted as I turned and was met with a deep, passionate kiss. "Now, I don't remember saying anything about you getting in first." he said seriously. We spent the next hour washing each other and kissing under the warm water. When we did get out, I grabbed a towel and wrapped it around me then walked to the mirror but before I could wipe it off he spun me around to face him. "Uh-uh." he said shaking his head, "We gotta get rid of this thing. "he smiled as he jerked the towel off of me and sit me on the edge of the sink. He dropped to his knees and spread my legs apart, putting one over his shoulder and taking my ankle to lift my foot upon the sink. He mouth took hold of me. I felt his lips move over me with a hunger. His tongue licked up and down and in every crease as his lips covered me. I began to scream and whine with excitement and desperate desire. He suddenly stopped and pulled me onto the floor. He gently slid into me and moved with ease and passion then a release took him and he fell onto me. "Oh God Zac!" I nearly screamed as I dug my nails into his flesh and slowly scratched along the back of his shoulders. His fingers found me and slid inside as I sucked in a breath. I reached a pleasurable climax and I felt myself tighten around his fingers. We lay on the floor breathless until finally moving to the bed where we kissed and touched for another hour.
"I want to stay here forever." he whispered as we lay facing each other. "Then stay. Don't ever leave." I said lacing our fingers together. He ran his finger down my face and onto my neck. "My family will be moving into the new house soon. I really want to stay here with you. They'll only be moving 12 miles away. You and I could just live here. Maybe we should go over there and tell them that." I sighed and nodded. He pulled me in close and I once again felt the comfort and safety of his arms. Just before drifting off though, I once again glanced at the fading bruise on my wrist. I thought about Isaac's words: It'll be worse next time. No, I wouldn't let myself think that way. I settled into Zac's embrace and fell into a deep sleep.
I often think of that day now. Now that it's too late. If only I had known what would happen as time went on...
