Mya started yawning and five hours after arriving at the dance club, I could see she was dead on her feet. We said our goodbyes and I took my girl back to our apartment to show her just how much she meant to me. She was more than a little bit tipsy when we finally arrived home and she headed straight to the bathroom.
I had planned ahead and had wanted to give her a night that was a little different from all the rest, so I had hired a massage table, bought some extra luxurious massage oil and some mandarin and Jasmin infused candles.
As soon as the bathroom door closed I ran to the sitting room, lit the log burner and candles then opened the massage table. The linen cupboard where our towels had hot water pipes running through it kept our linen warm, so I pulled out four white fluffy bath sheets and draped two over the table just as I’d heard Mya padding along the wooden floor in the hallway.
Throwing the other towels in front of the log burner to keep them warm I quickly stripped off all my clothes and waited at the side of the table. When Mya opened the door she was hesitant.
“What the…”
“Well, you said you didn’t want to play with anything in my pants so… ta-da, no pants. Problem solved.”
Watching Mya’s face light up as her lips curved up into a sexy smile was great. Raising her eyebrow she wandered around the table her fingers trailing over it until she reached my side and I didn’t know who was turned on the most by my little gesture.
“What do you suggest I do now, Jack? All of a sudden I’m feeling a tad overdressed for this party.”
Smirking wickedly I reached out and slowly flicked her hair over her shoulders. My hands swept around her upper arms and my fingers found her button down top. I began to unbutton the little blue silky blouse and when I’d reached the last button I glanced up at her to see her standing watching me, mesmerised. She smiled adoringly when her eyes eventually met mine and I mirrored the emotion and winked.
Slipping the blouse over her shoulders it fell down her arms until it pooled at her feet on the floor. My hands skated around her skin from her ribs to her upper spine reaching for her bra strap. Expert fingers unhooked the fasters and I peeled it away from her as well. As I dropped the offending clothing on the floor, I saw her nipples react to the cool room and bent to kiss each one of them before stepping back to the table.
“Come here.” My voice was gruff with emotion as I tried to contain my own needs and focus on giving pleasure to my beautiful girl.
Mya stepped towards me and my fingers trailed from her hips to the zipper of her tight blue leather leggings. They were extremely sexy with zips up the ankles and when she had come out of the bedroom with them on and some six inch stiletto shoes I had wanted to tear them right off of her before we got out the door. Her arse looked incredible in them.
Unzipping her leggings was like un-wrapping a precious gift, I ticked each tooth on the zipper down as slowly as I could. I was tormenting myself so it had to be teasing her a little as well. Turning her around to pull her back against my chest, I slipped my hands from around the sides of her ribcage down in front of her belly and into her trousers until I found the tiny triangle of lace that did nothing to stop me from finding her clitoris through it. Mya didn’t usually wear underwear so it was a special treat to find another layer to unwrap.
Exhaling heavily, Mya sighed and sagged further against me as I slipped my middle finger further down to her entrance. A loud gasp followed by a moan escaped her lips and she turned her head to look up at me. I leaned forward to meet her mouth and kissed her softly before spinning her around as quickly as I could and bending her across the table.
“Ohh, God.” She muttered when I caught her off guard.
Her body trembled slightly under my touch. Her response made me smile and I pulled her trousers down to her knees and quickly pressed my mouth between her thighs as my tongue sought to taste her through her thong. She groaned and shivered, and I stood back abruptly smacking her arse a little hard, fighting to stay in control and not just take her right then. I rubbed the red handprint, gently squeezed her arse cheek and ordered her to finish getting undressed and lie face down on the table.
Without a word, Mya complied with my demand as I wandered around the table observing her form lying before me. Every time I’d looked at her I thanked God for sending her to me. She was an incredible person, beautiful inside and out. Her California tan had completely faded and her skin was an even olive tone all over. She was amazingly relaxed in my presence, even in the knowledge that I must be looking at her closely. I saw the welt my hand had left on her right buttock and bent to kiss it again. Mya moaned and her legs instinctively parted.
I’d resisted diving in and devouring her when my animalist side was provoked after smelling her scent and tasting her, and I tried to remember my plan for the night. Lifting one of the towels to cover her up from the base of her spine to her ankles I took the oils I’d left to warm up on top of the log burner. Smoothing her hair out of the way, I trailed my hand down her spine then opened the oil bottle.
When I poured it on my hands it was extremely thick and I was turned on almost as much as Mya when I began to massage it over her shoulders and down her arms before bringing it back over her back and down to her hips. The erotic noises she made at the sensation of the oil and my hands on her skin made my dick rock solid. The bottom half of her body wriggled each time she moaned.
I’d taken my time, making sure I covered every inch of her back, arms and neck with my hands working in unhurried sensual strokes to worship her beautiful body. Eventually I tugged the towel away from her and began to pay attention to her lower limbs and buttocks.
Mya’s legs parted slowly as I’d rubbed her inner thighs from her knee to her groin. Each time Mya’s arse arched towards my hand it signalled that she wanted more than what I was doing. I nudged her side indicating that I wanted her to turn over and once she had, my eyes fell on her gorgeous breasts. Her nipples were pebble hard as they met the cool air. Mya looked up and when her eyes met mine I could see the lust radiating from them towards me.
I poured more oil onto my hands, trying to make the massage last longer but I was desperate to be inside her. I massaged over her breasts and down towards her belly, before running my hands down her legs as I tried to keep away from her perfectly shaven pussy. My dick was distracting me by twitching every time my eyes raked over her until I eventually began massaging her clitoris with my fingers. Mya moaned loudly and raised her arse off the table in an effort to get more contact. It was actually quite fun teasing her. And when I saw that little crease of frustration appear in her brow I knew she’d be begging to have me in no time.
I dropped to my knees and dragged her width ways on the table with her head hanging off the other side and took her pussy in my mouth. She tasted incredible as always and I groaned into her core.
“Please Jack…”
And there it was. Just as I knew she would, Mya was begging me to take her and she didn’t have to ask twice. Since she’d started taking the contraceptive pill I wondered how I’d ever managed to get the condom on in time before. I placed the crown of my dick at her entrance and leaned over her on the table to support her head in my hand.
When my forehead touched hers the look of love she gave me almost blew me away. I slid inside her painstakingly slowly and saw her eyes change from love to lust at the same time as her hand reached out and stroked down my abs because she needed to touch me a little more.
The feel of her clenching around me tightly always made me feel like a king and when I thrust into her and pulled out so just my tip was inside her, she lifted her left leg and pressed her heel into me to draw my arse nearer and to keep me from leaving her completely.
What started out as slow and sensual became hard and passionate and almost competitive as the both of us let loose our inner animals which turned our love-making into a wild ride. Mya moaned and screamed her way through three orgasms and I managed two of my own. When we were done we land
ed on the floor next to the log burner draped in the bath towels. Mya lay with her head in my lap, her silky locks of hair strewn all around her and I bent my neck to kiss her again.
We had been through so much as a couple. More than many would in a life time in terms of the barriers we’d overcome so far, and the way she just seemed to know what I’d needed was amazing. Everything she did seemed so easy, her love for Ava and me was effortless. I was a very lucky man.
After a while I lifted Mya in my arms, held her close and carried her to our bed. She slid between the sheets and I crawled in next to her, scooping her in my arms so I could spoon her. I used to like spooning with Lily but with Mya it was so much more intimate. No clothing and my dick nestled safely at the crease of her arse with her pulled tight to me and one hand securely cupping one of her breasts—it felt just perfect. What Lily and I did was nothing like that.
“I love you so much, Mya.” I told her as I kissed the top of her head affectionately. I made it a point to tell her several times a day how much I loved her and how beautiful she was.
Mya snuggled into the curve of my body and I was vaguely aware of her telling me she loved me more right before I fell asleep.
Chapter 41 ~ Exhibitionist
By the time Saturday came Mya was really into the swing of socialising and she thought it would be a real coup if we surprised everyone by playing together during the party. Apart from Mya no one knew I was now a proficient guitar player in a band she’d put together for fun and I really liked the idea, if I could get over my nerves, so I told her I’d think about it.
At that point she came clean that we were the local band my mother had referred to. That’s when the panic really started to set in. A couple of the best bands in the world were going to be there and they were going to have to say that they enjoyed our little amateurish stint out of loyalty. I felt sick.
“No fucking way, Mya. No. A song maybe but a whole gig…”
Mya chuckled at me and nodded interrupting me.
“Jack Cunningham, you’re doing it. Don’t do it for them, do it for me. I think you’re incredible, you’d give them all a run for their money and I enjoy playing with you. Please, for me? Don’t say no to me, it’s my twenty-first birthday.”
How could I refuse after that plea? So I nodded and felt like shitting my pants because I had just agreed to make a fool of myself in front of everyone.
Mya laid some clothes out for me to wear and what she had chosen was exactly what I’d have worn for the day as well, a blue and white striped shirt from my favourite tailor and some dark jeans, but with my Italian leather shoes.
While I had been working for the magazine Mya had a hand in organising her birthday bash at my parents with Ava and I could see her little touches everywhere as I looked. The old wooden pagoda with the lead roof had been transformed with flowers and string lighting and had been set up as the band stand with a drum kit some guitars and a microphone for us. The sound system and amps were stacked discretely at the back.
Glancing up I saw that the foliage of all the trees had strings of tinsel hanging from them as well, giving a glittery effect from the rope lighting Mya had strung around the balustrade that ran the length of the back of the house as well. I was a little jealous to have missed my mother’s reaction to Mya’s takeover of her normally immaculately and well pruned garden.
Inside the marque that stood in the middle of the garden there were tables with small flower jars and floating candles, balloons and bunting.
Somewhere around five people began to arrive. There was a couple of hours before Ava went down for the night and everyone wanted to share in her first birthday celebration. She was thoroughly spoiled by everyone and when I saw all the wrapped presents for her, the enormity of having a growing child hit me. Our apartment was only going to be good for another year at the most. I made a mental note to speak to my father about that at some point the following week.
Lily, Emily and Elle fawned over Ava and I even saw Alfie have a sneaky cuddle when he thought I wasn’t looking, but I wandered over and put my finger in front of Ava while he was holding her. She immediately grabbed it and squeezed it smiling widely at me with adoration. Alfie gave her his lopsided smile and I could see that he was taken with her. Ava began to cry for me and stretched out her little arms in my direction. I lifted her out of Alfie’s arms into mine to comfort her and he looked a little awkward.
“Oh, Alfie, look at that. Another stunning looking girl with good taste, I see. How does it feel to have stiff competition? First Lily, now Ava.” Giving Ava my complete attention I cooed, “Aw sweetheart you are a great judge of character, don’t worry, daddy’s the only rock star in your life.”
Mya came up behind me and kissed my shoulder. “Ah, Jack did I hear you sharing your secret talent at last?”
“Jack’s always wanted to be a rock star, I’ve seen him perform a few times, Mya, but those performances would normally get him arrested for public indecency, although I don’t doubt in certain circles people would pay to see it.” Alfie sniggered.
It was my turn to look awkwardly at Alfie, wondering if he really just tried to put my previous antics with women out there in front of Mya.
Again I was surprised when Mya pushed his jibe back at him.
“Alfie, I was telling my Jack here he could probably give you, Lily and even my uncle Rick a run for your money. He’s an awesome guitar player and when he sings to me it just melts my panties right off.”
Alfie sniggered and winked at Mya.
“Damn, Jack, you got yourself a fan for life there. I might just have to have the Jack experience for myself. Mya makes you sound so appealing.”
Shaking her head, Mya patted Alfie’s arm.
“Don’t worry, Alfie, as soon as Jack’s put Ava to bed, he’ll be up on that stage shocking the hell out of you all.”
Alfie’s eyes widened and Lily walked up slipping her arm around Alfie.
“What’s that, Mya? Jack’s performing? I hope whatever it is, it’s decent. All of our parents are going to be here later.”
If looks could kill, Lily would have been flat on her back. Mya’s dark side instantly showed, her mouth twisting at Lily’s comment which obviously left a sour taste there.
“You may think you know Jack, Lily but I know I do. Be prepared to be blown away later. Y’all are going to wonder how the hell you have jobs when you hear my Jack play.”
No pressure then, Mya. Right then I wanted to kiss Mya and smack her arse at the same time for talking me up like that in front of those two. If I had been feeling queasy about performing before, I was going to need to check my pants after that build up.
I knew I was stalking but Ava had her first late night where I kept her up twenty minutes past her bedtime. That was more about me delaying my performance than anyone having more time with her. Once she was tucked up in her cot sleeping peacefully, I went back to the garden to find Mya, but I bumped into Hugh, the drummer we’d been playing with.
“All set?” I wasn’t I was crapping my pants but I couldn’t allow Hugh to see how nervous I was because he wasn’t the most confident guy I’d ever met either.
“Sure, we’ve got this, Hugh. No pressure.” Hugh hesitated and then swallowed hard.
“If you say so, Jack.”
It was a muggy night once the sun had gone and the light was kind of grey when we took up our positions on in the pagoda. I was thinking all kinds of random stuff to try and make myself comfortable in front of the mic. God only knows how those guys do this for a living day after day. Karaoke was way different.
Lily grinned and shook her head at me like she thought I was joking and I stepped forward with the microphone in my hand. I was shaking, the only mic I had held before outside of rehearsals was on Karaoke nights.
“I just want to say thank you to my parents for having us all over to celebrate my beautiful girls’ birthdays and I want to thank all of you, my friends for your love and support during the hardest but th
e most rewarding year of my life so far. Before I blow you all away with my talent I have just one note of sadness to bring to the party.”
“Most of you knew Rosie, Ava’s birth mother. Rosie was a sweet person and I guess she felt I didn’t treat her with respect for the way she kept Ava a secret from me. Now I don’t want her memory sullied with opinions of what she did to us. In my heart I have forgiven her for not telling me about Ava until after she’d passed.” I held a glass up and saluted her.
“Rosie, honey, if you’re looking down on us, no hard feelings. Thank you for my beautiful daughter. I will do everything in my power to see that she has the best life possible.” I took my glass and raised it.
“Rosie.” Everyone raised their glasses and Mya did as well then we all saluted her together.
“To Rosie.”
With that I turned to Mya staring deeply into her eyes but still speaking to everyone.
“I know now that I was a mess when I split from Rosie and some of you may have felt for her. I did too, believe me, however in my heart I knew she wasn’t the person I could spend the rest of my life with. When I realised that, I did the descent thing and set her free. As you know I took the choice to opt out of life for a while and during that time I thought I had acted in haste. But then I met Mya and we fell in love so effortlessly. I can’t imagine life without this wonderful girl by my side. She is the stars and the moon to me, heaven and earth and I don’t know how I survived without her.”
Mya leaned in and kissed me on the lips and murmured, “Ditto.”
I broke my eye contact with her and turned back to all of my friends. “No one really knew what I did during that time away, apart from Mya, because I’ve never really spoken about it. Now you are all about to find out, or I’m about to make the biggest arse of myself in front of two worldwide bands.”
Lily smirked and looked at Alfie and he folded his arms in an arrogant pose and smirked back at her as if to say, ‘This is going to be funny’.
I nodded my head at the band and started to play the song that Mya thought suited me best, ‘Smart Dressed Man’ by ZZ Top. When I started singing Lily’s jaw dropped and she and Alfie glanced at each other with a surprised look on their faces.
