Private Emotions – Invitations (The Private Emotions Trilogy) (12 page)

“Ethan, oh god, that is so fucking good, you just don’t know how much I needed this. Ohhhhhhhhh.” His oral expertise was screaming to take my orgasm out of me and I arched off the bed, slamming his face into my wet center. In the afterglow of the moment, I felt his love tool touch my pussy lips as his hands held the back of my neck. Moving with him, he willed his presence onto me and then into the very depths of me.

“Emily, I’ve seen a side of you that I never expected to see....oh my god... you’re so tight around me.” His thrusts were slow and methodical at first as he took his time to rub his shaft over my sensitive clit. The sensation was so good that it made me cum over and over again around his penis.

I kissed his lips gently just as his eyes shot open and his body gave up the liquid pleasure that came shooting forth. He pressed his head on my shoulder. His cock was still half hard inside me as his hot offering dripped out around him.

He continued to hold on to me so tightly that I thought he was going to squeeze all the air out of my lungs. We lay in each other’s arms for a long time. I felt Ethan and I had connected on a level that we hadn’t previously. The gentleness that he showed, the softness of the expression in his eyes, the loving feel of his touch all made me feel like the only woman in the world...the only woman in his world. This time I was not imagining it and I knew that he felt it too.

I awoke to the smell of hot coffee and toast wafting from the kitchen. I felt a little brighter in spirits but still had a hole in my heart for a little redhead girl who was no longer with me. I got up and followed the enticing aroma down the hall in nothing but my birthday suit. It just felt so natural to walk into the kitchen as bare as the day I was born and I guess he felt the same way because he was cooking in the nude. He had his back to me and his tight ass was so inviting. I went to him and circled his waist with my hands, feeling his hard welcome come to life.

I stroked his hard length as he mewed in excitement. I slipped my thumb over the top to be rewarded with a sigh of contentment and his pre-cum that I used to spread down all his wonderful inches.

He turned towards me and I put my finger over his lips and said, “Shhh, don’t say another word.” He watched me with intent eyes as I got down on the cold tiled floor and took all of him into my mouth. He had to grab onto the counter behind him as I administered to his needs, just like he had done for me last night.

His cock had this clean soapy taste. He must’ve had time to take a shower this morning while I slept the sleep of the angels. I wrapped my hand around his base and went to work in drawing his lust out of him. This time I was in a hurry to make him go off and it showed in the fire that I was unleashing on him.

“Fuck, fuck, mmmmph.” He was biting the knuckle of his right hand, while he watched me orally satisfy his deepest desires. “Not like that, Emily, not like that.”

He sat down on the kitchen chair as he held his impressive monument in his fist. I straddled his lap and moved to take him inside me until finally he was enveloped in my tight glove. He grasped onto my thighs and began to bounce me up and down in his lap, making me scream my joy into the morning light.

“Ohhhhhhhhhh.” I was like a rag doll and he had to hold me to make sure that he had his way with me. He came so quickly that it surprised me and made me feel that he couldn’t hold out because he was that hot for me. He buried his head between my breasts for a brief moment and let out a soft sigh. “Emily...Emily.” He whispered my name with the slightest hint of regret in his voice.

After that he got this look on his face like he had done something wrong. He got dressed and ran out of there so fast that he barely got his pants on before going out of the door.

“What the fuck?...Aaarrrggghhh!”

Chapter Seven
Secret Parties

Sophie called me from across the country and she said, “Emily, I just talked to Ethan and I’m so sorry for the loss that you just had. I wish I was there right now to hold you in my arms and tell you that everything will be all right. I hope you had someone there in your hour of need and you didn’t have to go through that alone.”

“No, Ethan was there for me the whole time and he was the perfect rock of strength. He brought me home and we made love last night and another quickie this morning but then he left my apartment so quickly that I thought for a moment his pants were on fire.”

“Hahahahaha, that’s funny, but you know how Ethan is and he has a hard time letting himself show any sort of real emotions. Sounds to me like you are getting to him and I think that is the first time that has happened since Henrietta back in his days in Berlin.
Don’t worry, I know that you tried to talk to him about her.”

“Oh god, Sophie, I hope that I did not betray your trust and get you into trouble. Ethan was really upset that you told me.”

“Don’t worry about me, I can handle Ethan and besides I know too many of his secrets for him to stay mad at me. It would be so easy to blackmail him with all the dirt that I have access to. I think that you did the right thing in helping him to confront his own fears. So maybe he is learning just as much from the student? Now, I have to go, but please believe me when I say that my thoughts and prayers are with you and this won’t be the last time you hear from me.”

The phone clicked and I sat there absorbing what she told me. Sophie only confirmed my suspicion. He did indeed have walls that he had put up. It was the kind of wall that would take the patience of, Jobe, to break down and it would come down, if only one brick at a time.

My boss had given me the day off in exchange for the all the overtime that I had put in after my holiday with Ethan, Ronnie and Mark. The even better news was that Barry had just emailed and wanted to meet up with me later and I told him that I was not at work and we could meet now at our favorite coffee place along the river. He was working the night shift that day so it would be perfect timing for the both of us.

As I was almost out of the door, I heard my answering machine. It was Ethan, “Emily, I know that you’re not there but I just wanted to tell you how much I admired the strength you had during that funeral. What you said on Kelly’s behalf showed a grace under fire that I found very admirable. I hope that I showed you that in some small way last night and this morning. Anyway, there is this party on the weekend that I would very much like to take you to. You’ll have to get a costume for the occasion, keeping in mind the theme is of the Victorian times. I’ll let you go for now but just know that I enjoy your company and look forward to seeing you again soon.” That wasn’t the same man that had spent the night. I could tell that he was trying hard to distance himself from his own feelings, so that his heart wouldn’t feel the pain that he had already endured with Henrietta. It wasn’t my place to mention his loss to him, and he would just have to reveal that vulnerable side to me when he felt comfortable doing so.

The coffee shop was as inviting as ever and I could see Barry behind the glass waiting patiently for me to arrive. As usual, he was the perfect gentleman and already had my order on the table. “Sorry to keep you waiting, Barry.”

“That’s ok. How come you are not at work today?”

“I attended the funeral of friend who passed away yesterday so I decided to take the day off and just take it easy.”

“Em, I am really sorry for your loss and you know that Maria and I would have gladly been there for you if you needed us.”

“Thanks, Barry. Yes, I know that you guys would be happy to be there for me but Ethan offered his support so I did not feel alone. I am slowly accepting the fact that Kelly is no longer here and although it still leaves a sore feeling in my heart, I can’t begin to imagine how her parents must be feeling.” I knew that I should give Julia a call but I felt that I needed to give her and Scott some more time to mourn their daughter’s passing. I felt my eyes tearing up at the thought of it all so I changed the topic to lighten the mood.

“So how is Maria getting on?” I saw Barry’s face light up with the mention of Maria’s name. “Okay, Barry, what are you not telling me? You look like you just won the lottery.” Barry blurted out the good news in one excited breath.

“Maria is pregnant, we don’t know if it’s a boy or girl, still too early to tell but we are over the moon with the news. You must promise not to say anything though. Maria wanted to break the news to you herself, but I am so excited that I could not wait to tell you.”

“Oh my goodness, Barry, that’s wonderful news. Congratulations! This is great and don’t worry, my lips are sealed. Were you guys trying for a while or is this just a lovely surprise?”

“Maria and I were trying for a while. Trust me when I say that we have tried everything that was available, but still nothing. We started discussing the possibility of adoption and looked into all the different options that were open to us. Then Maria missed her period and decided to do a pregnancy test. The test confirmed that she was pregnant but we could not believe it so she tested herself at least three more times that day and a couple more times the following day. They all had a positive result. We couldn’t believe it! We still can’t believe it! I am going to be a dad!”

“Oh, Barry, this is great news, I am so, so, so happy for you guys. No one deserves it more. You will make a great dad.” He looked at me beaming with pride. The fact that he would soon be a dad filled him with a joy that I had never seen from Barry.

“You think so, Em? Do you really think that I would make a great dad?”

“Absolutely! I don’t think so, I KNOW SO. You want to know why?” He leaned towards me in anticipation for what I was about to say. “Because you, Barry, are ultra-full of uber-amazingness.”

“Haaa haaa. Wow, that must mean I am one heck of a guy! You really know how to make a man feel good, Em. The guy who will capture your heart is one luck fella. Speaking of captured hearts, how are things with Ethan?” The expression on my face slowly changed to that of frustration. “Hmm. Do you want to tell me about it?”

“Nothing to tell really.” I didn’t want to put a damper on Barry’s good news. Today was his day and I was not going to let anything that I had to say ruin it for him. He and Maria had been through a lot of lately and I wanted to be the friend who could share in their happiness as much as they had shared in mine.

“It will all happen exactly when it is supposed to, Em, and not a moment sooner. He will either realize that you are the woman for him or you will realize that he is not the man for you. Either way I hope that you find your own happiness. I believe that you will, I truly do. It’s just taking a little longer than you would like but it will happen for you.”

“Thanks, Barry, it means a lot to hear you say that. Now I must leave you in your blissful bubble and rush off because Ethan extended an invitation to some sort of Victorian party and I need to get myself a dress.” Barry and I hugged as we said our goodbyes and I once again wished him well on his good news. “Please give Maria my love and tell her that I will stop by soon to see her.”

“I will, Em. Enjoy your party.” I watched as Barry walked away with a skip in his step. It really made me feel a lot better to see him so happy and it put me in a brighter mood for the party.

Now, I had to scavenge for a Victorian dress for a party that I hardly knew anything about. I did not even know who would be attending besides Ethan. It was to be a masked ball and I needed something that would set the stage for an evening that would be hard to top.

It was the dress that was the hardest thing to find but I discovered that a local high school had just finished their run of ‘A Midsummer’s Night Dream’. I had to wonder what was going to happen to the dresses in the play. Deciding on a whim, I stopped by and talked to the principal who told me that she could sell me one of the dresses at a reasonable price and if I returned it the following week, then there would be no cost at all.

“I’ll take the leading lady’s outfit and I don’t suppose you have someone that could do the fitting?”

“As a matter of fact, our home economics class has a seamstress class right now and I could make you part of the homework assignment.”

“Sounds like a plan to me, lead the way.” For the next hour I was to be a live guinea pig for the class in question, but they did a remarkable job on the dress. I would be the belle of the ball when I entered into the room.
