The Masseuse

by Kiki Goodman

  “Oh Jake!”

  Jacob stayed still as her shockwaves subsided and then slowly moved away, grabbing hold of her to keep her steady as he stood up. He looked into her eyes which were smouldering in the afterglow, and then kissed her passionately.

  “Let’s continue this upstairs.”

  “Lead the way,” Jake said before Kelly took his hand and led him upstairs to the bathroom. If this was how life was going to be between them then Jacob couldn’t have asked for anything more. The kindness and gentleness they shared, as well as the passion, was all either of them could ever ask for. Perhaps everything could work out as hoped.

  Chapter 42

  Things were starting to get back on track. That’s how Jacob felt anyway. He had ten years to be with Kelly and he wanted to make every moment count. Some days were going to be better than others, but that was life. Jacob just needed to hold onto the best moments they could make together. He could do that, perhaps the timeframe didn’t matter, perhaps they could live a relatively good life together. Everything seemed to be calming down and slowly getting back to the ‘new normal’ as he called it – the normal where they were happy, and living life to its fullest. Kelly had been floating around all day in a lovely summer dress looking incredibly peaceful and angelic. Jacob enjoyed watching her, in disbelief to a degree that they were finally together. Nothing was going to come between them, it had all been cleared up.

  “Jake, can you come out the front please?” Kelly asked in a peaceful tone. Jacob was happy to oblige, the warm weather, the sounds of birds singing and not a cloud in the sky. He headed out the front door and immediately stopped dead in his tracks. Tyler was standing there in front of Kelly, she was smiling and he looked awkward. Before Jacob could say anything Kelly walked up the stairs to him.

  “I asked him to come,” Kelly said with a pleasant smile. “Life’s too short to be without friends Jake.”

  Jacob knew where she was coming from, they had been through so much and now was the time to be happy, together. He didn’t want his time taken up by such silly things, but knew Kelly was right, things had to be put to rest, there had to be no regrets.

  “I’ll leave you two to chat. If you need me I won’t be far.”

  “Hey,” Tyler said his hands resting on his back. Jacob slowly walked down the steps to be at the same level. “I wasn’t sure I should come.”

  “I wasn’t sure I wanted to see you,” Jacob said sitting down on the bottom step. “But there’s no point worrying about that now.”

  He motioned for Tyler to sit down and he moved over to the side and sat against the wall of the house.

  “How’s it all going?” Tyler asked trying to break the ice.

  “Fine. Things are… fine. You?” Jacob replied gently.

  “Yeah good. Things are going… good,” Tyler said picking up a twig and playing with it in his fingers. “Listen man, I… you know.”

  “Yeah… I know,” Jacob said, things starting to suddenly feel like old times.

  Tyler threw the twig away and looked at Jacob. He could see he needed to address something straight away to try and clear the air.

  “Jake… the baby isn’t yours man,” Tyler said reluctantly which made Jacob curious as to how he knew this for sure. “We both have had… a pregnancy fantasy. She went off birth control to increase the risk. You two hadn’t been together for a couple of weeks and well… let’s just say I knocked her up but tried to downplay it.”

  “What do you mean? Nikki’s certain I’m the father,” Jacob said bluntly, even though he felt his whole body relax and mellow out. It was a welcome relief to hear that he couldn’t possibly be the father, but he was still angry at how it all had gone down.

  “I told her I was sterile, that I don’t want kids, that it’s not who I am – you’ll see when the baby is born. I promise you are not the father Jake. Nikki likes to play games, and well… oh man this is going to sound so bad…” Tyler said shaking his head and pausing to regroup his thoughts. “We sleep around to make our relationship stronger. The games are all role playing. The risky sex is part of it. It gets us off. It was never about hurting anyone.”

  “The bit that gets me Tyler is that you didn’t tell me about her. You two kept something going behind my back. For how long? I thought we had an agreement? I thought we were best buds? I would have at least thought you would have come to me… told me,” Jacob said trying his best not to get angry and blow up. While he was definitely at ease of not being tied to Nikki for the rest of his life, the betrayal was still eating away at him.

  “I know. I’m sorry. She wanted me to keep it a secret to up the excitement. I don’t know why, she… just has this way of making things happen. So I went along with it,” Tyler said trying to explain what was unexplainable to Jacob – his feelings.

  “How long?”

  “How long had we been seeing each other?” Tyler asked in reply to which Jacob nodded.

  Tyler took a deep breath. “Well it happened once a couple of weeks before my big party. I tried to put a stop to it, but she’s addictive man…”

  “Tyler…”

  “I’m sorry Jake. I told her we couldn’t see each other while you were together. She told me that you had broken up and then she went and got her boobs done. It exploded from there,” Tyler said, seeing that he had obviously used the wrong choice of words.

  Jacob started to fume.

  “I mean, we picked up from there. I thought you two were through. I… ahh fuck it. I’m sorry Jake, I really am.”

  “I don’t like how things went… but it happened. If you’re happy with Nikki then great, but I don’t trust her, okay?” Jacob said to which Tyler nodded.

  “How can I make it up to you Jake? What do I do?” Tyler asked hoping there was some way forward.

  “Well… I doubt you are breaking up with Nikki, so–” Jacob started but stopped, thinking about it. “You can start by not fucking anyone I’m seeing.”

  Tyler nodded and pulled face of understanding.

  “That’s fair.”

  “If you do I’ll cut your cock off!” Jacob said bluntly, making a snipping action with his fingers.

  “That’s a good start,” Tyler said seeming to honestly regret what had happened between them.

  “How about we take it by ear and see how we go?” Jacob said ready to go back into the house. “There’s a lot of stuff to get over, but we can start here.”

  “Deal,” Tyler said as Jacob stood up and held out his hand. Tyler got up and looked at his hand for a second before shaking it. “Thanks Jake.”

  “We should probably go for a run some time,” Jacob said before turning to head back up the stairs. “Thanks Tyler.”

  “Catchya later,” Tyler said with a quick wave of the hand before heading to his car.

  “See ya.”

  Jacob went back into the house and found Kelly standing there looking worried. He hadn’t seen that terror in her eyes before and knew something was up immediately.

  Kelly had overheard some of the conversation between them and started to fret, there was something in that whole situation that hit her to the core.

  “You okay?” Jacob asked gently, grabbing each arm and standing in front of her.

  She simply nodded but looked worried.

  “I’ve been trying to put a plan together for so long now, of what I want to do in life. Where I want to head, want to be, what I want to do. That’s changed. And I hope you are okay with that,” Kelly said looking him in the eyes.

  “Okay… I’m sure it’s not as bad as you are making out… let’s have it,” Jacob said with a smile trying to cheer her up.

  “I want to go travelling. I want us to pull up on an island somewhere and stay there for a few weeks, just us, on the beach, in the water, seeing the sights, making love to each other. Just us. Can we do that?” Kelly asked a sense of desperation evident. “Go to far away countries? See different cultures? See the beauty the world has to offer?”

&nbs
p; “Sure.”

  “The plan I have in my head is to make as much money in the next year as possible, set something up and then go… travel. Can we do that?” Kelly asked looking for a sign of hope.

  Jacob smiled and nodded.

  Suddenly Kelly looked petrified, as if it was too good to be true. There was something she was holding back and Jacob knew it, she wanted to say it, but obviously was having a hard time getting it out. He wasn’t sure if it was her medical condition or not but he had to at least ask.

  “What?”

  “I slept with Richard, my old boss!” Kelly said bursting into tears feeling like she had finally gotten the monkey off her back.

  She had been carrying it around for so long, making her feel miserable. It had made her angry about going against her principles and made her feel worthless for a time. But now it had to come out, it had to be out in the open if they were to truly live their lives together, to the fullest. No more secrets. “It’s how I got the promotion to the branch office. I couldn’t keep that from you. I’m so sorry!”

  Jacob grabbed hold of her and held her tightly, letting the tears flow before pulling her face up to look at his.

  “I don’t care.”

  Chapter 43

  They couldn’t have asked for a more picture perfect day. The sun was hot, the sky was clear and blue, and the forest they were hiking through was fresh. Kelly had made it a point to go hiking today, up to Giant’s Chair and then down to the lake. It had been a few weeks since they last went and Kelly wanted to go since it had been sometime since they both had a quiet get away. As usual Kelly was in the lead, a position Jacob didn’t seem to mind because he enjoyed the view and had no problems letting Kelly know, to which she would feign disgust, even though deep down she loved being admired by him. With the time passing quickly, Kelly and Jacob had finally reached the peak they had come to call their own.

  “I thought we might stop up here for a quick rest before heading down to the lake,” Kelly said setting her large backpack down towards the back of Giant’s Chair. She walked to the edge of the flat rock outlook before turning back to Jacob who was putting his backpack down as well.

  “Sounds good,” Jacob said looking at Kelly and suddenly noticing she was nervous. She was taking in a few deep breaths, her brow furrowed in worry while her hands fidgeted in her pockets. “Is everything all right?”

  Kelly smiled nervously before moving closer.

  “Yeah, everything’s great,” Kelly said taking a deep breath. “I ah… wanted to say something to you.”

  Jacob looked at Kelly and waited. Obviously it was something important with how she was acting.

  “Okay, shoot,” Jacob said politely.

  “I just wanted to say that I have never been so happy in all my life. I feel like I’m complete, that I am now whole with you beside me. You make me feel so incredible, so alive and I don’t know if I am ever going to be able to fully explain it. I’ve said to you so many times now that I am yours – physically, emotionally, spiritually. It’s a choice that I’ve made willingly, a choice that I never realised that I would make. But I am happy, so happy,” Kelly said starting to tear up before composing herself. “So… I wanted to give you two things today.”

  She looked at Jacob who was smiling and could see the quizzical look in his eyes.

  “Okay –” Jacob said but Kelly cut him off.

  “Wait… I wanted to give you this first,” Kelly said pulling out a ring box before opening it and showing him a white and yellow gold ring that glimmered in the sunlight. “And I wanted to ask you to marry me. Will you marry me Jacob?”

  Kelly got down on her knees in front of him, waiting for an answer. Jacob smiled, kneeling down in front of Kelly as well.

  “Before I answer, I want to say this. You are, bar none, the best thing that has ever happened to me. I never lived before you came along. I never realised what I had missed out on until it hit me that day that I was in fact in love with you. I love you Kelly and…” Jacob said pulling a ring box out of his pocket and opening it in front of Kelly.

  The large offset square diamond sparkled in the light, causing Kelly’s mouth to drop open. Tears started streaming down her face before throwing herself at Jacob and hugging him tightly.

  “Yes! Yes! Yes!” Kelly said happily.

  She kissed him on the lips before he took her left hand and placed the large rock on her ring finger. She gleamed at the engagement ring and excitedly hugged Jacob again before kissing him passionately. Kelly took the ring she had out and placed it on Jacob’s ring finger, kissing his hand before placing it on her cheek, affectionately resting her head into his hand.

  “You’re so beautiful,” Jacob said kissing Kelly on the lips.

  “I’ve got one other thing remember?” Kelly said standing up and pulling a key out of her pocket.

  “And what’s that?” Jacob asked standing up.

  Kelly smiled before handing Jacob the key and then stepping back. She removed her shirt and took her shorts off, throwing them near the backpack. She stood there, wearing a bodysuit that zipped up the middle and had a padlock through the zip above her breasts and a leather strap that was in place around her body.

  “The key opens this up, your other gift,” Kelly said twirling around and showing off the figure hugging bodysuit that defined her wonderful figure. Jacob moved forward just as Kelly stopped and grabbed hold of the padlock, inserting the key and unlocking it. He threw the padlock on the ground, all the while looking into her eyes, and then undid the leather strap allowing him access to the zipper. Jacob began kissing Kelly’s neck, turning her into putty in his arms while his hands roamed her body. He reached up and began pulling the zipper down, letting the air hit her skin as he exposed her chest to nature. Kelly let out a soft groan, before Jacob turned her around and kissed her neck from behind while pulling the zipper all the way down the front of her body.

  Kelly suddenly opened her eyes, realising she was about to be exposed to the world. “Jake, people will see…”

  “No they won’t… no one can see up here from down there,” Jacob said pulling the bodysuit down her arms and freeing her breasts.

  He caressed them expertly sending Kelly into overdrive, her worries still evident but all she wanted was Jacob to touch her. He pushed her bodysuit down and kissed down her back and over her backside as she exposed her nakedness to the world; Kelly stepping out of them at the bottom. She turned around and fumbled with his shirt, but quickly went to his shorts and ripped at them, pulling them down violently so that she could get to his manhood. Jacob stepped out of his shorts just as Kelly took him in her mouth and hungrily devoured his fruit. After a few moments Jacob lifted Kelly up and turned her around, spreading her legs with his foot before letting his hand wander down to her womanhood. He kissed Kelly’s neck and then inserted a finger into her wetness causing Kelly to moan loudly.

  “Jake, they’re going to see… let’s go down to the lake, please…” Kelly said as his free hand roamed her body, much to her satisfaction.

  Kelly wanted him badly but not in public like this, it was too open.

  Jacob quickly backed away, rummaging through his backpack and pulling out a picnic blanket. He placed it on the rock, close to the edge so that he could see across the tree tops and to the town. Happy with the spot he crouched down, grabbed Kelly’s hand and pulled her down to the ground, kissing her passionately.

  “This is crazy Jake…”

  “Just go with it… no one will know,” Jacob said rolling Kelly over and moving in behind her.

  He lifted her leg up and positioned himself at her opening, placing an arm under her head and getting comfortable. Jacob kissed her neck tenderly and then rubbed the tip of his manhood at her wet slit, causing Kelly to push back into him.

  “Oh Jake, I feel so naughty… hurry up please before I lose my nerve,” Kelly said reaching down and guiding his manhood into her centre. She moaned softly and rested her head on his arm as Jacob start
ed with a slow pace. Jacob’s hand came up and grabbed her breast, squeezing it in time with his thrusts and sending Kelly wild. She placed her hand on top of his, helping him squeeze her while her free hand reached back and pulled Jacob into her. He forced Kelly into him, holding her leg up while thrusting deep into her being, the world seeing their love in its rawest form. Kelly swam in the sensations of love, feeling Jacob move inside of her as the tingling sensations built in her loins. Her heart raced with the thoughts that someone was watching them, the naughtiness of the situation adding fuel to Kelly’s hungry fire. The idea of being caught by someone was arousing, but completely fearful at the same time, her body contradicting her mind with the battle. Jacob’s hands starting caressing her breasts, sending warm feelings through her and every so often his firm squeeze would add to her heat. His strong hand held her thigh up while he pumped deep into her body, building her orgasm quickly. Kelly pushed back into Jacob, the fear of being caught fading as the thought of being dirty filled her mind with all the things she wanted Jacob to do to her. She could feel her body tense up and flutter, a small moan escaping her lips as her breath became more ragged. A dirty thought crossed Kelly’s mind about what she wanted to do to Jacob, taking him and pleasuring him in ways that she had never thought of. Suddenly Kelly was pushed to the brink, feeling Jacob thrust inside her and send her petering on the edge of oblivion as she focused on the waves of pleasure washing over her. Kelly tried to speak a few times, to let Jacob know what he was doing to her was incredible, but the words never came. Feeling her body about to explode it was now or never. Kelly summoned up as much voice as possible before telling her soul mate what he probably already knew.

  “I’m about to cum,” Kelly said her voice cracking as she spoke.

  The emotions washing over her were irrepressible. The feeling of being exposed to the public mixed with the pure adrenaline and raw sexual desire of being with Jacob tipped her over the edge. She gripped his hand tightly as her body started convulsing, trapping Jacob with her power. Kelly’s hips bucked forward and her convulsions pushed Jacob to the edge, holding off enough so that he could keep diving deep into her being.
