She breathed a sigh of relief and sat up as the night’s memories came flashing back. Her cheeks burned and she clapped her hands over them just as she heard his footsteps in the hallway. He entered the room carrying a tray, dressed in a robe over his sleeping shorts.
“Good morning baby, you must be hungry.” She waited for the crass remarks and the knowing looks, but instead he placed the tray in the center of the bed and got in on the other side.
“Drink your coffee before it gets cold.” He picked up a cup and passed it to her before taking his own. Annabelle finally found her voice beneath the embarrassment, ”you made all this?” ‘This’ was pancakes, eggs and crisp turkey bacon. The white plates were decorated with strawberries and she could’ve cried at how beautiful they were and the effort he’d gone to.
“Of course; did you sleep okay? I forgot to draw the blinds so the sunlight didn’t get you.” He looked at his watch and she was reminded of the first morning she woke up here. Here it comes, she thought. The big brush-off.
He’s going to tell me he has to leave and suddenly me living in that hell as he calls it no longer matters and he’s going to ask me to leave. She was near tears when he put his cup down and turned to her.
‘There’s somewhere I want to take you.” She was so surprised by his words, coming so soon after her worst expectations that it took a minute for his meaning to register. “Okay!” She had to clear the lump from her throat to get that one word past her lips.
“Great, we have to get going soon, I was late twice already this month and I don’t think they’d go easy on me this time.” He smiled when he said it so she didn’t think it was that serious. Still she wondered who could make him worry about something like that seeing as he owned his company.
There was no grabby feely from him when she climbed off the bed after she’d finished breakfast. Just a, “I’m not going to join you in there or we won’t get out the door until noon.” She blushed and hurried into the shower and found herself grinning like a fool as she put her head under the water.
Chase did everything but handsprings as he came back from taking the tray to the kitchen and looked through his closet for something to wear. This could’ve gone way worst if he hadn’t been quick on his feet.
He’d woken up wanting her but because he knew she had to be sore, even after the salve he’d rubbed into her after she fell asleep that last time, he kept his hands and his cock to himself.
He’d just laid there looking at her, watching her beautiful face while she slept. Then he got to thinking about his girl and her personality and decided that she’d probably be very uncomfortable when she woke up.
So climbing out of bed he went to make breakfast for his woman while coming up with the best way to greet this first morning after. As far as he could tell it had been the right call. There’d been no uncomfortable silences and she hadn’t shied away from him.
But now he felt just a little bit of hesitation at what he had planned for the day. What if she didn’t like it? What if this thing that he was so passionate about meant nothing to her?
His eyes went to the closed bathroom door as he heard the water turn off. He imagined her naked, wet, and his cock gave a little jerk against his zipper. “Stay down boy, our girl has had enough.”
Annabelle stood on the other side of the door biting into the pad of the thumb of one hand while holding onto the knot in the towel with a death grip with the other.
There was no robe this time and she wasn’t about to put back on the dirty clothes she’d just taken off. She couldn’t hear him moving around in the bedroom so took a chance that he wasn’t there and opened the door and stepped out.
He was looking in that direction when the door opened and one look at her wrapped in the towel, her hair wet from her shower, that light of new love in her eyes and all his good intentions went flying out the window.
She felt the tremble in her tummy as he started walking towards her and realized that she’d wanted this. That from the moment she opened her eyes, while they were having their conversation over breakfast, her body had wanted this.
Chase said nothing as he pulled the towel from around her small frame and looked down at her tanned body. “Fuck baby, how are you so perfect?” It was true, he’d never seen anyone as perfect as she, both inside and out.
“I’m going to have you again. If you’re too sore I’ll give you my mouth first.”
“You said you’d be late.”
“I’ll handle it don’t worry.” He laid her back on the bed and settled his hips between her thighs.
He decided to wait before taking off his jeans because he knew if he did he’d end up fucking her again without much foreplay. He licked her neck, which made her legs move against the sheets and filed that away for later.
He moved down to her nipples licking and sucking both nipples until they were hard and firm. His tongue and teeth blazed a trail down her middle until he came to a stop between her spread thighs.
He inhaled her heady scent and felt his heart shift at the same time his cock did. She flinched at the feel of his tongue until he did it again, and then again until soon he was licking into her and she’d never felt anything that felt so good; and yet, she wanted that other part of him inside her now.
She pulled at his hair and moved her legs against his ears, arching her back until her pussy was smashed against his face. She didn’t have time to be embarrassed when she felt the liquid heat leave her body and flow into his mouth, because seconds later he climbed up over her and slid inside.
Her eyes closed in ecstasy and her heart raced with pleasure. “Open your eyes and look at me.” He fucked slow until she obeyed, then he lowered his head and covered her lips with his as his hips picked up speed and he was driving into her faster and faster.
“Does it hurt?” She shook her head no and fought for her next breath as that earth shattering feeling built deep inside her again. She wondered fleetingly how she could feel the sensation even in her toes that curled and her ears that burned even as he took her to new heights.
She flew up and over even as her body burned out of control and he was with her all the way. Even though time was of the essence, Chase didn’t do anything as crass as leaving her as soon as he was done cumming inside her. Something he’d forgot to protect her from again.
“Sorry, I got you all dirty again. Let’s go get cleaned up.” He made it seem as casual as possible when he lifted her from the bed and took her into the shower and washed her up.
They were on the road not long after with her hand held securely in his hand while he drove. Every once in a while he’d raise her hand to his lips and kiss her fingers, never once letting her come down from her high.
Annabelle was a bit nervous about where they were going. He hadn’t told her much of anything and she had no idea. At least she was sure he wasn’t taking her to his family or he would’ve said, but she had no idea where else it could be.
“We’re here.” They pulled up outside a little red brick building with kid’s toys painted in various colors on a huge storefront window on the first floor. The marquis said ‘Hope Haven’ in big letters. She still didn’t understand until they walked through the doors and a group of about twenty kids came running towards them screaming his name.
“Mr. Chase, you’re finally here.” They tugged on his arm, dragging him towards the back where there were doors leading into separate rooms. One of which was a large open air playroom.
“Give me a second guys I want to introduce you to someone.” A couple young women came from somewhere in the back of the building and Annabelle guessed from the way they were dressed in team shirts that they worked here.
“Annabelle, these are my kids, kids, this is my lady Annabelle, say hi.” There were a lot of hellos from the younger kids while some of the older kids just looked on as if sizing her up.
“So she’s the reason you’ve been late the last couple of times before you went away.” The young girl who said
this couldn’t be more than twelve but she didn’t say it with any malice, just a snicker, which encouraged the others to join in.
Annabelle’s cheeks were ablaze and Chase thought it best to get her out of the line of fire. “I’m going to give her a tour, you guys get back to what you were doing and we’ll be right back.”
He took her hand before there could be any protest and led her away. Annabelle was both relieved and nervous at where he’d brought her. And even more so when he told her that the place was his, started by him and his parents right after college.
She felt intimidated by his goodness and by all that he’d already achieved in his life. An old fear tickled the edges of her mind but she fought hard to push it aside.
Now was not the time to think about the fact that everyone else would be heading off to college in the coming days while she would be stuck here stocking shelves in a mom and pop store.
No, she wanted to hold onto this new beginning a little while longer before heading back to reality. So with that thought in mind, she threw herself into the center’s activities after the grand tour once she got the hang of what it is that they do there on a Sunday morning; and it was a lot.
It’s as if Chase and the other workers were trying to fit as much into the few hours they had to make up for all that was missing in the lives of the underprivileged kids, which is what she now found herself surrounded by.
Chase disappeared into the office to do some paperwork, thinking he’s close enough if she needs him and he’d check on her in a half an hour or so. And then he got caught up as time went by.
Annabelle hadn’t felt this worthwhile in quite sometime. Here with these kids, listening to some of their stories, she realized she was a lot better off than most. Not that her situations weren’t shit.
But in the face of these brave little souls who knew that after the few hours of respite spent at the center they were going back to whatever hell was their existence and could still smile and laugh and play, she felt silly.
She’d missed Chase for the first few minutes, but was soon engrossed with the kids who all seemed to want her to do ten different things at once.
Chase finally picked his head up and realized how much time had passed. He felt like the worst kind of boyfriend for having deserted her, but when he listened closely and realized that his little rugrats were much quieter than usual he got up from his chair to go check.
He was just in time to see her heading towards the back, maybe to the outside where he had a nice little play park for the kids to go wild on the days that it wasn’t too hot. On closer inspection it looked more like she was being dragged along by the horde.
He watched her as she went, and saw a few of the smaller kids surround her, each one trying to get her attention. They caught hold of her arms and one even wrapped her arm around her leg, each trying to pull her in a different direction at once. He folded his arms and watched her undetected to see how she was going to handle the unruly crowd.
“Where are you taking me?” she asked, trying to disengage herself. “It’s still too hot to play outside why don’t we play another board game?” She laughed as she said it, which they took to mean she wasn’t serious.
“No-no-no, you have to teach me how to play catch remember?” shouted one small boy. “You said you could do it better than Mr. Chase and we were gonna have a contest when he’s done.” Oh really now.
Chase couldn’t keep the smile from breaking out across his face. It had only been two hours, but already she was part of the fabric of the place. It was obvious that the kids loved her, and from the grin on her face she was more than a little fond of them as well.
“Shh, you little stinker, I said nothing of the sort!' said Annabelle, still trying to contain her laughter but failing miserably. The chorus of, let’s play outside soon started up again and he watched to see how she would handle herself.
Having been there himself a time or two in the beginning, he knew it was the kids’ way of bonding with someone they liked, someone they’d decided they could trust. He was just slightly amazed that it had happened so soon. His kids aren’t the most trusting.
He watched now as they formed a circle around her, now all crying with one voice. Some held up gloves others had balls and yet another a bat. “Okay-okay. Ten minutes but that’s it.”
They all gave a collective whoop and headed for the door, dragging her along with them. He walked over to the window and watched from behind the scenes as she took her time showing them the proper stance and how to hold the ball between their fingers. As he watched he wondered who had taught her.

“So, did you have a good time today?” They were in the car on their way back from the center after spending almost the whole day there. Annabelle turned in her seat to face him, still pleasantly tired from running around with the kids.
But as hot and sticky as she was, she wouldn’t have traded the experience for anything. Apart from seeing another side of him that she loved, being with the kids had opened her eyes to her own shortcomings and the things she needed to do if she wanted her life to change.
If they could overcome the things they needed to-to keep their dreams alive, then she didn’t see why she couldn’t. “It was amazing, thank you. I had no idea…Kimmy never mentioned the center.”
“It’s not something I talk about too much. I don’t like that feeling of bragging or tooting my own horn, kinda takes the joy out of it for me.”
Could he be any more perfect? She thought. Both of the other workers had filled her in on bits and pieces of what he’d done in the years since the center was open, once they’d warmed up to her that is. They told her stories about how he’d fought hard for his kids, and the fact that his care didn’t stop there.
He keeps on top of all the kids and their school work, and even have a back to school program that supplies all the necessities for them, even going so far as to pay for their lunches for the school year because he knows their parents can’t afford it.
As she sat there beside him in the tight confines of the car, her mind filled with the last few hours of hearing about how good he was, that low grade longing that has been on a slow burn all day suddenly heated up and she wished she was brave enough to scoot across the seat and rest her head on his shoulder while he drove.
Just then he turned his head her way. Chase was about to ask her if she wanted to eat out somewhere but the look in her eyes, the way she was looking at him, changed his mind. His hand squeezed around hers as he drove just a little bit faster to get back to his place.
Annabelle didn’t know what got into her. One minute they were discussing the center and the next all her hormones decided to act up at the same time. She felt twitchy, and hot and all she could see in her mind’s eye was him, moving on top of her. She could actually feel his weight pressing her down, feel him sliding into her over and over again.
She bit back the whimpering sound that threatened to escape and by the time they made it upstairs she was on fire. Chase saw the raw need in her and like any red blooded male wanted to see where it would lead.
Not that he saw his girl as nothing more than a new plaything for him to keep tied to his bed, but damn if she didn’t look like she would consume him. Something he never expected to see in her, especially not so soon.
So when the door closed behind them and she turned and all but threw her body against his he was ready. He just wrapped his arms around her and she did the rest. Her body trembled slightly beneath his hands when he sent them on an exploration down her back to her ass. And those sounds… have mercy.
He had the foresight to lift her and carry her down the hallway to his bed where he laid her gently back before tackling her clothes and then his. She laid back on the bed staring up at him with those fever bright eyes and a pink tinge on her cheeks.
He didn’t give her time for that shyness to set in though. As soon as he dropped his silk boxers, which were the last thing to go, he was down on his knees at
the foot of the bed, dragging her ass to the very edge in the perfect position for his tongue.
“Ahhhh!” Annabelle was lost somewhere inside her own head. She has no idea where the intense need came from. But she knew she’d die if she didn’t get some kind of relief soon. His tongue did amazing things between her thighs and she was too far-gone to be embarrassed by her body’s response.
The way she moved against his mouth, the way her fingers grabbed his hair, and the way she cried out each time he licked his tongue into her. But it was when he sucked her clit between his teeth that she really lost it and gave up any pretense of being a lady.
Chase reveled in every second of it. In his mind it was going to take his girl weeks, even months maybe, to get to this point, and now his heart and his dick were about to explode from all the emotion she’d unleashed inside him.
Pulling his tongue from inside her he leaned over her on the bed with his cock just hanging down between them right between her thighs. Annabelle’s eyes stayed glued to that beautiful monstrosity that she now knew would give her so much immense pleasure.
Her legs writhed against the cotton sheets and it was only now that she realized they hadn’t had time to turn on the AC and the room had just a touch of sultry heat. It was perfect. “I want to try something new baby, turn around.”
At first Annabelle had no idea what he was talking about, but with his help she soon found herself on her hands and knees in the middle of the bed with him behind her. Now her face really did sting with embarrassment at the undignified position, but that didn’t last long either.
Chase had to remind himself that she was new to this, that he couldn’t just drive his cock into her and slam her over and over again the way he saw in his mind. So no matter how fast his heart beat and how just the sight of her pink passion- flower peeping out between her thighs inflamed him, he knew he had to take his time.
He started out slow when he wanted to go fast, by running his hands over the soft, smooth flesh of her ass and up her back. The move made her spread her legs wider and he couldn’t resist giving her his fingers. She was soft and wet and all his good intentions went flying out the door when she pushed back into his hand in need.
