The scorching afternoon sun bled a heat into the air by the
pool that would have been stifling if it hadn’t have been for the light breeze
floating off the glistening river that gently ruffled the pages of the book
Rachel was absentmindedly attempting to read. Stretching luxuriously on one of
the new loungers she had purchased on her shopping spree, she sighed with
pleasure and let the book slide to the ground. Her body barely concealed by a
black string bikini, appreciatively lapped up the warm sunshine, the heat
seeping under her skin and into her sated veins. It was a couple of hours since
Jon had rocked her to an unbelievable new level of orgasm, not once but three
delicious and satisfying times. Smiling to herself, she let her eyes drift shut
as she revelled in the still glorious aftermath of their morning union on his
sofa. The things that man could do amazed her, she felt like he’d unlocked the
door to a whole new sensual world that she’d been missing out on and she
couldn’t get enough of it.
They had lain together, slickened by a damp sweat
from the heat and friction of their bodies in a blissful daze until Jon’s cell
had interrupted and reminded them there was actually a real world outside
of the little sex bubble they had been existing in. She had left him to take
care of the important sounding call signalling that she was heading for the
pool, actually sniggering to herself that he had to drag himself back into
business mode while she took advantage of the benefits of a weekend off and
immersed herself in the taxing business of sun worshipping.
A bead of sweat trickled down the valley between her
breasts, it really was insanely hot out for the time of year. Reluctantly she
sat up, smirking at the gentle reminder of the frenzied morning activities from
between her legs. She’d missed feeling like this – simply satisfied. Reaching up to
tighten the band that scraped the hair off her face, she took one step towards
the pool’s edge and dived neatly into the cool depths of the water. Swimming a
couple of lengths along the bottom of the freshly tiled floor, she eventually
surfaced at the far end and hoisted herself up to sit on the edge, her legs
still dangling in the rippling water. She wiped the streams of water from her
eyes just in time to see a familiar figure walk around the side of the house
dressed in a t-shirt and board shorts, the sun glinting off his dark sunglasses
with every bouncy step. Grinning she watched in delight as he came closer,
stripping off his tee to expose the glorious tanned expanse of muscle that
defined his chest. That body was something she’d swear she’d be able to pick
out blindfolded.
“Hey there neighbour!”
Flashing his trademark smile that flipped her stomach every
time as he kicked off his trainers, Jon tossed his shirt and sunglasses to the
lounger Rachel had just vacated and dove straight in, splashes of water marking
his less than elegant torpedo under the surface. Giggling she stifled a scream
when he came up between her legs and threatened to pull her in on top of him.
“Don’t you dare – I just got out!”
“Aw baby, come on – let me get you all wet!” Smirking with
an evil grin, he pulled himself up just enough to deliver a quick kiss to her
lips before he let himself slide back into the water.
“You already did that this morning you bad, bad man!”
Laughing Rachel leaned down and ran her fingers through the tousled mess of
soaked hair on his head that was bobbing between her legs.
“Did you get everything taken care of?”
Her bikini bottom at his eye level, Jon focused on running a
finger just above the band of material that curved neatly around her hips. “Mmm
hmm………but you didn’t need to leave.”
“I know but the sun was too tempting and I needed to try out
my new pool furniture!”
“Nice suit you got there…………could you buy that in every
colour?”
Winking cheekily up at her, he ducked back under the water to sweep
his hair back and popped back up with a mouthful of water that he dropped with
a kiss onto the front of her low sitting bikini. The chill of the water made
her gasp, his lips pausing just long enough to nip at the soaked fabric. The
intense heat of the sun on her back did little to suppress the goose bumps that
were travelling up and down her skin.
Watching her sneakily under his eyes, Jon resumed running
his finger along the hem until he reached the side and daringly tugged on the
string tie just enough to loosen the garment for a more thorough inspection.
Shivering Rachel sucked in a breath, the taut skin across her belly tightening
just an inch more when he slowly dipped his finger lower.
“C-section?”
Glancing down to where Jon was lightly tracing the line of
her faint scar she nodded.
“Mmm hmm”
“With both of your kids?”
Curious, Jon pushed back in the
water just far enough to be able to curl his arms around the back of her knees. Smiling Rachel leaned back on her hands to gaze contentedly at him.
“Yeah. I wasn’t exactly built for having babies!”
“I was there when all four of mine were born……if seeing your
kids come into the world doesn't define ‘awe’ then I don’t know what does. I
barely made it there for Jakey……we had to get clearance from the White House to
fly over their air space.” Jon chuckled at the memory, water sloshing gently
around his neck. “I made it, but by the skin of my teeth!”
Rachel snorted, her head shaking in disbelief. “You just let
that roll right off your tongue didn’t you?...’I got clearance from the White House’….” Rolling her eyes she
grinned down at his unperturbed shrug.
“Well I did!”
“I was in labour for
two days with Lauren and this was back when women thought they had to do
‘natural childbirth’ or they were wimps. By the end of those first twelve hours
I was ready to do a runner!”
Jon nodded, his eyes dancing with merriment. “Hell yeah I remember
Dorothea was totally into the breathing and all that crap…….it didn’t take long
for us to discover breathing wasn’t equal to morphine! Didn’t help that I got
off track on the whole breathing thing which threw her off – I thought she was
gonna kill me!”
Running her toes up the sides of his chest under the water,
Rachel laughed back at him. She was enjoying this easy conversation; it was
nice to be able to just talk.
“I hope you were more help to her than Nick was to me! He
was the coolest person I’ve ever known except
when it came to childbirth! Then he was completely useless! He was chewing on
those Peppermint Lifesavers and breathing them into my face – nine months of
pregnancy and I never once had an
ounce of morning sickness but the nausea during labour from those peppermint
things – ugh!”
Grimacing she shook her head. “I still can’t stand the smell!”
Pleased that she was willingly opening up to him and giving
him a look through the window of her past life, Jon gazed up at her softly from his semi submerged state.
“I bet you were an incredible mother….”
Rachel thought for a moment before she answered with a
slight shrug. “Well if the desire to
be a mother makes you a great one, then yeah I was. But you know how it is, you
do your best and some days you fall a little short. I’m sure there are a
million things you’d do differently with your kids right?”
“Well sure………but they’re really great kids….. and they’re
mercifully forgiving!” He shot her a rueful smile. “They’re incredibly tolerant
of me being gone so much. Their mother has had the burden of parenting, that’s
for sure.”
Teasing, Rachel poked him gently with her toe. “That’s
probably why they’re such good kids – you haven’t been around to corrupt them!”
Chuckling with mock hurt Jon grabbed her foot and tugged,
nearly but not quite toppling her into the water. “Hey! Keep that up and I
might have to cut you off!”
Giggling she rolled her eyes and pushed herself back onto
the ledge. “I’m quaking in my boots!”
Jon pulled himself back in between her legs once more and
narrowing his eyes began to nip shamelessly at the soft flesh of her inner
thigh.
“You know you like it……”
Retying the strings of her bikini bottom Rachel looked down
at him incredulously.
“Good LORD! You’re gonna be the death of me – you can’t
possibly be able to get it up again!”
“Of course I can – anytime, anywhere you want it baby!”
Reluctantly tearing his attention away from her warm legs he grinned up at her.
“But lucky for you – we have to go
get cleaned up.”
Puzzled Rachel stopped fumbling with the strings. “Cleaned
up for what?”
“We’re going into the City for a little shopping and dinner.
Just jeans or shorts – whatever you want to wear……I have a casual evening
planned for you.”
“Oh you do? Hmm….. shopping for what exactly?” Suspicious Rachel got to her feet and headed for the
lounger to retrieve her towel as Jon hoisted himself up out of the water.
“You’ll see! Now go get dressed my sweet and meet me at my
place – can you be ready in an hour?”
Rachel snorted derisively at his order as she rubbed the
towel over her hair.
“Yes Boss! I can be ready before then but….”
“Ah ah!” Water dripping from his chest and shorts, Jon shook
his head showering her with droplets of water that flew from his hair. “No
questions from you little girl! Just go put some clothes on…..”
Smirking he grabbed a corner of her towel to dry off his
face and waggled his brows cheekily at her.
“….preferably something I can see through and tear off of
you with one hand.”
Rolling her eyes Rachel grinned at him and retrieved her
fallen book from the ground, the thoughts of an evening out with him excited
her beyond belief and the added uncertainty of a mystery date only served to
heighten the intensity.
Awwwwwww! They are so sweet. No more sad days for Jon and Rachel.
