Chapter Seven
Nathan didn’t hear Haley enter the kitchen but he felt her arms come around his middle and her head lightly rest against his back.
“Hey, I’m sorry I didn’t say anything back there. I guess I was a little shocked and surprised at what you said, but I’ve had a moment to think and it’s actually not a bad idea.”
Releasing the breath he had unconsciously been holding, he turned around to face her and wrapped his arms around her waist, he brought her in closer to his chest. “You don’t think it’s too soon to be thinking about moving in together?”
Smoothing her hands over his bare chest, Haley gave his question a moment of thought. “I guess it does sound a little soon but so what? It’s not like we’re going to move in together today or anything. Look, we’ve wanted to be together for the past six months and we didn’t do a damn thing about it, did we? It took me being knocked on my ass for us to actually kiss each other and when it finally does happen we discover it’s the best kiss either of us has ever had.” She stood on her tiptoes and kissed him gently on the lips before drawing back and continuing what she was saying.
“My suggestion is that we try dating for a few months or so and just see how it goes. If it goes great and we’re both happy, then we can talk more about moving in together. For the time being I can continue staying at Peyton and Jake’s place but spending lots of time here with you and whenever they actually do leave the apartment of an evening, you can come over and hang out there with me. What do you think?” Bringing her arms up around his neck, she gently scratched the back of it as she waited for his response.
Pulling her in even closer, Nathan kissed her softly. “I think you’re a genius, Haley,” he told her, a smile gracing his lips. “I’ll admit I was worried that maybe I’d blown it by even suggesting you move in here. I guess another good thing about doing it your way is that I can get to know your cousin and your best friend and try and convince them I’m a good guy and not out to hurt you.”
“Don’t worry about them, okay. I know they’ll really like you and if they don’t, tough. Me liking you is more important, right?”
“Right,” he confirmed, pressing his lips against hers before drawing back and adding, “Actually, I think you should start showing me just how much you like me, sweetie.”
Haley snuggled into his chest, breathing in his natural scent and lowering one of her hands, she slowly trailed the pads of her fingers over his sculpted chest. She circled one of his nipples before pinching it between her thumb and forefinger and then soothed the pinch by licking it, enjoying the gasp she elicited from him. “Mmm, you’re so right. Besides, we’ve got a few minutes to kill before the coffee is ready so we might as well make the most of it.”
“Good thinking. And let’s not waste time going back to bed either,” he suggested before suddenly lifting her up onto the kitchen counter and running his hands up and down her bare legs, loving the silkiness of her skin.
She pulled him closer to her and tilted his head back so he was looking into her eyes and she slowly moved forward and captured his lips, kissing him hard and deep. Parting his lips with her tongue, she slipped it inside his mouth, committing the taste and feel of him plus the sounds he was making to her memory.
Nathan moved back slightly and outlined Haley’s lips with his tongue before sucking on her lower lip and then nibbling on it. He brought his arms up from where they rested on the outside of her thighs and made short work of unbuttoning the shirt she was wearing before running his hands over her flat stomach and cupping her breasts in his palms.
“Yessss...I love your hands, Nathan... Don’t stop touching me...” she mumbled as she moved away from his lips for a moment to breathe in some much needed air.
“Okay,” he replied in a husky tone before shifting further down and taking one of her nipples into his mouth, sucking it hard. He couldn’t help smiling at the loud moan she released and then it was his turn to groan in pleasure when she scratched her nails down his back before sinking them into the skin of his shoulders. In retaliation, he bit down on one of her nipples making her cry out.
Thinking he had maybe gone too far, Nathan pulled back and looked into Haley’s eyes and was mildly shocked at the blatant lust and desire they displayed.
“Oh god, please! Do it again...that felt amazing,” she told him rubbing her thumb across his lips. He opened his mouth to take in the offered digit and proceeded to suck and then graze it with his teeth. Slowly withdrawing it from between his lips, she bent forward and held his face firmly between her palms as he swooped in and kissed her, taking control of the kiss.
“I want you so much, Haley... I want to be inside you.”
“I want you too... Now! I can’t wait.”
Nathan didn’t have to be told twice and picking Haley up off the counter, she automatically wrapped her legs around his waist as he carried her into the living room. He sat her down in the large armchair while he quickly stripped off his boxers and for a moment he was standing naked in front of her.
Not being able to tear her eyes away from his gorgeous body, she reached out her hand and softly touched his hard, throbbing erection; closing her fingers around the base and stroking him back and forth. He closed his eyes as the indescribable sensation of her hand masturbating him sent his temperature soaring and his senses reeling and the next thing he knew something wet was encasing the tip of his cock. Opening his eyes, he nearly fainted at the sight of Haley’s lips moving over his hot and aching flesh.
“Ohhh…th-that feels so good...but you...you’ve gotta stop... Stop!” Nathan suddenly exclaimed.
As per his demand, Haley immediately stopped what she was doing and withdrew her mouth from him, nervously looking up into his eyes. “Nathan, what’s wrong? D-Didn’t you like it?” She asked him shyly and somewhat confused, knowing her face was no doubt blushing again.
Crouching down so he was at eye level with her, he kissed her and couldn’t help but taste himself on her lips. “Baby, I loved what you were doing but if you didn’t stop I was gonna...”
“Yeah and? I wanted you to, Nathan. I love the fact that I get to do that to you. That I’m the one who makes you lose control.”
“I...I guess I just didn’t want you to be uncomfortable doing that if it wasn’t what you wanted.”
Stroking her fingers across his cheek, she leaned forward and rested her forehead against his. “You’re not making me do anything I don’t want to do, okay?” She paused for a moment before deciding to reveal something to him. “I’ll let you into a little secret. I’ve, uh, I’ve never actually done that before. I never felt comfortable or confident enough to do that to either of my previous boyfriends. It’s just that…seeing you standing right in front of me, I couldn’t resist trying it but if you don’t want me to--”
“Hey, I never said that. Did you hear me say that? I definitely want you to do that,” he told her, rubbing his nose against hers in an Eskimo’s kiss. “I just wasn’t expecting you to do it then, that’s all.”
Tilting her head to the side, she slanted her mouth across his and kissed him hotly, sliding her tongue past his lips to duel with his. Having him reassure her the way he did just then gave her even more proof that this was more than just a casual fling and she could practically feel her heart melting at the thought of being with him long term.
“I want you,” he whispered, his breath coming in heavy pants against her lips.
“I want you, too.” Keeping her gaze locked on his, she licked the inside of his bottom lip and then giggled at the moan that little action elicited from him. “So, do you want to go back to bed or do it here?” she asked, a playful smirk gracing her features.
“I wanna do it here and I want you on top this time.” Nathan told her as he stood up again. He picked her up from the chair and walked over to the couch and sat down, arranging them so that she was straddling his thighs, her knees resting either side of him on the couch.
“Shit! I forgot to get a condom.”
Haley smiled at him as she slipped her hand into the top pocket of the open shirt of his she was wearing and removed two condoms from it. She placed one beside them on the couch while she ripped open the foil packet of the other one with her teeth. Reaching down, she rolled the condom onto his erection and stroked him a couple of times.
“Keep doing that and it’s definitely all over for a while,” he told her, giving her a sexy smile.
“Well, we don’t want that to happen now, do we?” she teased while moving forward and guiding him inside of her, hissing as he stretched her.
“You feel so good, Haley,” Nathan murmured as he placed his hands on her hips and gently guided her up and down his shaft. He loved the intense look of concentration she wore on her face, particularly the way she was biting her lower lip and he moved forward so he could do it for her.
“Uh...faster...Nathan...faster...” she cried out, gripping his shoulders as she moved with him.
Knowing he was going to climax soon, he moved his hands up to Haley’s breasts, first cupping them and then rolling her nipples between his fingers before finally pinching them hard.
She cried out, feeling the sharp pinch from his fingers travel all the way from the sensitive little nubs right to her core and she began clenching and unclenching her internal muscles around his cock, holding him tight within her body before speeding up her movements.
In compliance with her whispered demands in his ear, Nathan pinched her nipples again and then moved forward and took the right one between his lips, sucking on it furiously and using his teeth to graze against it while his free hand came around her, massaging and kneading her bottom.
As their bodies continued to move together, the sensations grew to be too much and he practically roared as he erupted within her. All he could see, smell and taste in that precise moment was Haley and he still couldn’t get enough.
His body was slowly calming down from his climax and as it did so, Haley continued moving along his semi-hard cock before slipping her hand between them and caressing her clit as she fought to achieve her own orgasm.
Closing her eyes, she lost herself in the sensation of her fingers touching her sensitive tissue combined with the feel of Nathan’s scorching flesh repeatedly sliding in and out of her. Suddenly, she felt his fingers touching her just there and a few moments later and with a final pinch to her clit from him, she chanted his name before collapsing against his chest as the intensity of the orgasm she had just experienced washed over her.
Resting against each other while they fought for breath, Nathan’s hands travelled up and down Haley’s back which was slick with sweat and he kissed her shoulder, sucking her flesh into his mouth and tasting its salty tang. He then kissed all along her shoulder until he reached her neck and she tilted her head to one side to give him better access which he took full advantage of.
She sighed with pleasure as she reveled in the feel of his lips planting soft, wet kisses along her shoulders, neck and throat while his cock was still sheathed inside of her. Moving back slightly so she could look at him, he just happened to look up into her eyes in that same moment and they seemed to move in slow motion toward each other until their lips met in a long and very intense kiss.
Breaking the kiss, they then leaned in and rested their foreheads together, gazing into each other’s eyes.
Nathan couldn’t tear his eyes away from her and without even thinking about what he was doing, he said, “Haley, I...I’ve never felt like this before...about anyone.”
“Me either,” she whispered against his lips. “I’ve never wanted anyone this much. It just feels...right.” Pausing for a moment, she kissed his lips before moving to the side of his face and kissing a path from his mouth to his cheek and then to his ear. “I wasn’t expecting this to happen between us but I’m so happy it did.”
“I wasn’t expecting this either,” he admitted, tightening his hold on her.
They sat there for a few moments just holding each other, enjoying the comfortable silence that fell between them as they both realised this wasn’t just a mere affair between employer and employee. This could actually be the start of something they had been waiting for their whole lives.
