He couldn't take his eyes off of her. She was absolutely beautiful, even in the dim lighting of the moon that came in through the windows.

Absolutely exquisite.

Leaning back against the headboard, he watched, entranced as toyed with the hem of her top. A coy smile played on her lips before she gripped the bottom and lifted it up and over her head in one swift movement.

The breath was knocked out of him as his eyes feasted on the blood of the bra that she was wearing, even fierier than her hair. Thelonious couldn't help but groan as she unbuttoned her jeans and got rid of them too, leaving her in a tiny piece of silk that left little to the imagination.

The fact that her bottoms were dark as night and didn't match her bra just made him hotter for her. The fact that she hadn't anticipated that they would sleeping together tonight, but was still this eager

He doubted she was more excited than him though. He had been fantasising about this from the very first moment that he had laid eyes on her.

The anticipation was killing him.

The way her she remained defiant with a smug smile on her face – clearly happy with his reaction towards her and her body – and with her eyes unwavering from his, he was sure that he wouldn't last long.

Darcy stalked towards the bed slowly, with a purpose. She had wanted him for so long and the whole night she couldn't help but wander what it would feel like to be with him, to truly be with him. She was just glad that that this was finally happening.

Her insides felt like jelly and the closer she got to him, the more she felt her underwear dampening. If she wasn't so turned on and desperate for him, she would be embarrassed with her wanton behaviour. But right now, she was past caring.

Darcy wanted him.

When she was within reaching distance, he did exactly that. A surprised gasp escaped her as he leaned forward, grabbed her by the waist and yanked her towards him. They both landed in a heap on the bed, with her splayed over his chest as he resumed his previous position of sitting up, leaning against the headboard.

This just made her hotter.

A small pout played on her lips as her arms slithered around his neck, pulling his face closer to her. "That's not playing fair."

"You haven't been playing fair all night, you vixen." His voice was gruff and husky with lust, his hands shaping over the slope of her back before they reached her panties. Two fingers slipped past the waistband and when she didn't stop him, but rather stretched further up onto her knees to give him better access, he grinned before his fingers adventured further.

Darcy wanted to gulp, but her breath hitched in her throat at the sensation. A mewl escaped her when he had located her clitoris, flicking it. At this point, he had his whole hand was in her underwear and rubbed her relentlessly, only pulling her closer to him as her back arched at the welcomed sensation.

"Thelonious," she gasped, too breathy and airy to be considered actual speech. "That feels so good. Please don't stop."

"I know," he replied and heeding to her command, he dipped his finger into her folds.

Her hands braced against his back as she buried her face in the crook of his neck in attempt to mute the groans of satisfaction that passed her lips. His finger dipped in and out, faster and harder as the sounds of her pleasure increased in volume.

When he added a second finger, he could feel her thighs trembling with anticipation and knew that she wouldn't be able to last much longer.

"I'm going to cum," she whispered in his ear, out of breath. She placed open mouthed kisses along his neck and he continued thrusting his fingers in and out of her before she exploded into her first climax of the night. And Thelonious was determined that it would be the first of many. As if a promise, he guided her face to his as he gave a sweet but short kiss.

Placing his hands on her hips, he hooked his fingers in her underwear before pulling them off of her. She made it easier by pulling them over her knees and flinging them over the edge of the bed and onto the floor.

Darcy didn't even have time to look back at him before he pounced on her, pinning her down on the bed.

She giggled as his nose trailed down the side of her face before his mouth attached onto hers. The kiss started off sweet and innocent, ironic after what they had just indulged in. She couldn't help but smile against his lips as she felt him grow impatient, it being obvious with the aggressiveness that he was kissing her with, but also with the bulge in his boxers which she could feel up against her bare thigh.

Thelonious could feel his heart beat hard in his chest as he glanced down at her. Darcy Blake was the most beautiful being he had ever seen and he would do anything to keep her in his arms. Always.

He must have been lost in his own thoughts as he jumped as she tugged at his boxers, pulling them down just enough to release his throbbing appendage. Her tongue slithered out unconsciously to wet her lips as his dick slapped up against his stomach before standing salute to her.

While he was on the longer side, he definitely wasn't packing the longest there ever was but that didn't bother her as it she knew that it was more about technique than just size. Though the thick girth of him excited her immensely, so much so that she was sure that the bed sheets under her would be damp.

Even though she had just orgasmed, she found herself creaming.

"What are you doing?"

"I want to taste you."

"I want to taste you too."

When her mouth parted and her eyes hooded over, he grinned. "Me first." At any other time, he would have always let her go first because he was a gentleman but in bed, he was determined to get the first taste. If she was well behaved then maybe he would give her just what she was begging for. But for now, he wanted something sweet and he knew just where to find it.

She panted as he placed one last kiss on her nipple before beginning to trail his kisses down her body. She could feel him smile against her skin, nipping occasionally. She was sure that in the morning, she would awake to various hickeys all over her body but she wasn't complaining.

Him wanting to leave his mark on her just made things even hotter. Any more and it would be sizzling dangerously.

Her toes curled as he licked a stripe up her folds and to her clitoris, his tongue wet but her entrance wetter. The juice from her orgasm leaked down her vagina and onto the sheets below her. His length twitched at the sight.

Mewls passed her lips as tongue slipped into her. She tugged at his hair, pushing his face closer to where she desperately needed it. His thumb rubbed while his tongue licked, only stopped to suck her into his mouth, French kissing her lower lips.

When the pleasure became overwhelming and her knees threatened to crush his head, he grinned against her lips and simply braced his arms against her thighs, holding her down.

"You taste so good," he moaned against her, licking feverishly until finally, the tell-tale signs of her pleasure came gushing out of her.

Maintaining strong eye contact, he lifted his thumb to his lips and sucked it clean, moaning once again at the taste. He wanted to go back for seconds and when he tried, she closed her legs which only caused him to laugh.

"Too sensitive," she pouted. Still breathing heavily from her second orgasm, she grinned and reached out for him.

"Darcy," he called out in warning, but the rest of the words remained unsaid as she got down on her knees lapped at the pre-cum that beaded at the top of his cock. When he didn't protest, she grinned and sucked him into her mouth, taking him in inch by inch until she found herself with nearly all of him down her throat. Pulling back slightly so she didn't gag, Darcy hollowed out her cheeks and sucked hard, her tongue running up and down the side of his length.

He pulled at her hair, his grip yet firm so as to not hurt her, causing her to pause in her actions. As much as he was enjoying himself, he feared that he was enjoying himself a little too much.

The question was clear in her eyes as she sucked the tip back into her mouth. He threw his head back in pleasure as a groan escaped him, her mouth warm and very welcoming.

"You need to stop that or I won't last much longer."

An evil glint shone in her eyes as she bobbed her head up and down, only speaking a few words between mouthfuls. "I want to see you cum."

Thelonious ran a hand down his face before he reached down and pulled her up, his actions a bit more forceful this time to ensure that she didn't go back for seconds, or was it thirds? He could no longer remember. Around her, especially in her very much naked and sexually awakened state, he couldn't think at all. "And I want to cum in you first."

"Later then." Her breath hitched at his admission and as if a switch just flipped on inside of her, she grinned as she crawled over onto the bed and pushed him back so he was lying down completely.

His mouth twitched. "Definitely later." The promise was clear.

Thelonious braced his hands on her hips as she lifted herself up and grabbed him from the base, her grip firm and strong as she slid over the rubber of the condom onto it. He hadn't even noticed her pull out a condom from his stash in the bedside table – nor did he know how she about it, but he was glad; glad that at least one of them was thinking clearly.

He reached up and brushed a lock of hair away from her face, desperate to see everything. "You're so beautiful."

Darcy grinned and raised herself up on her knees, leaning forward and resting her hands on his chest. She leaned further down and nipped at his earlobe. "And you're extremely handsome." Just as she lifted her lips expectantly, he reached down and guided himself towards her entrance, still holding firmly onto her waist. "Sometimes I can't believe you're real."

"Do you feel that?" He asked, thrusting himself into her. She gasped at the welcome intrusion which was soon followed by a throaty groan as he delved deeper and deeper into her. "I'm definitely real, baby." She grinned against his mouth, her tongue entwined with his as he set the rhythm with his erratic thrusts into her. She struggled to keep up and could already feel herself building towards another orgasm as she wasn't used to someone so thick, or skilled for that matter.

"You feel so good," she moaned, now sitting upright as she rode him, lifting herself up and down. He guided her with his hands on her hips, helping her.

When she began squeezing around him, he knew she was on the edge. With her eyes rolled back in pleasure, she didn't notice the grin on his face as he lifted her up and pushed her onto the bed so she was now lying on her back.

A gasp escaped her as she landed on her back and her eyes flew open, ready to protest, though the words died on her tongue as he pushed apart her knees and plunged back into her. The new angle was welcomed for being on top was very tiring, especially with the pace that he had adopted nearly as soon as they had started. It was not unnoticed that Thelonious had a sexual appetite which she feared she would struggle to keep up with, though was very eager to keep trying. Especially if it brought this much pleasure.

Darcy gripped the sheets around her, her toes curling as he continued his animalistic thrusts. She lifted her hips, meeting him every time.

A low, prolonged groan escaped him. "I've never felt so good," he admitted amidst the throes of passion, occasionally pressing his lips against the hollow of her neck. "You're tighter than a virgin."

If Darcy wasn't so desperate for a release then she would have laughed at his admission. It appeared that he wasn't great at stringing together words to form coherent, normal sentences when rutting between the sheets.

She squeezed around him, milking him until he found himself busting inside the condom. A guttural groan passed his lips and he buried his face further into the crook of his neck as he found himself coming harder than he had ever cum before.

They remained like that for a few minutes, his head rested on her chest in the valley between her breasts and her arms wrapped around his upper body, just enjoying the skin on skin contact and listening to the other's heartbeat.

What they had shared was far greater than what words could possibly describe.

Pushing himself over and rolling onto his side of the bed, he reached out and scooped her body into his. While he lay flat on his back, she snuggled into his side; sated and now tired.

Darcy enjoyed being fucked to sleep. She always slept better that way.

Silence passed between them, no words needed after the extracurricular activities that they had just indulged in.

He didn't want to ask but he did anyway. "Was that good for you?" His voice was quiet, a mere murmur in the darkness.

Thelonious thought she had fallen asleep at first, but was proved wrong when she stirred suddenly and threw her leg over him. "No," she replied sleepily, snuggling her face into the crook of his neck. His heart stopped beating at her response, afraid that he had disappointed her; not satisfied her. It was all his insecurities coming back up again.

Suddenly, he felt like a little kid again. The one that no one wanted, the one that wasn't good enough at school. The one that no one wanted.

Her response was difficult to swallow but most of all, he was ashamed of himself.

He was just glad that it was dark and she wouldn't be able to see him wallow in his own shame.

"It was amazing. The best I've ever had!" She whispered in his ear before her breath evened out, having drifted off to sleep.

And suddenly, he was beaming. Those few words had turned his world upside down. He pressed his lips against the crown of her head, closing his eyes as he buried his face in her hair. Three words passed his lips, so quiet that even he hadn't heard himself.

He truly meant them though, even if she wasn't awake to witness his declaration.

Thelonious was never one to share a bed, not having been very fond of it ever since he was a young child. But for the fiery vixen now nestled in his arms, he was willing to make any and every exception.
