"It's okay, girl, I feel it too. Let it be, baby, breathe.
I swear I'm right here.
We'll be good, I promise, we'll be good.

. . .You don't know what's in store,
But you know what you're here for. . .

. . .Don't be scared, I'm right here."

The Weeknd "High For This"

Christina stared down at Robbie.

Robbie stared up at Christina.

They froze for a moment.

"What are you doing with her?" she demanded, pointing at Bree. "Who the hell is she? One of your hoes?"

"What the fuck are you wearing?" he demanded while pointing at what she was barely wearing. "God, you're practically naked!" He jumped up and covered her with his jacket.

Marcel quickly moved to the end of the stage. "Christina," he hissed. "Both of you get your asses off this stage right this minute."

Robbie ushered Christina off the stage. It wasn't long before Marcel ran up to them, face red with anger.

"What the hell was that?" Marcel demanded. "What was that deer in the headlights crap about?"

"Oh shut up," Robbie said. "You got my baby running around here in superhoe wear."

"You are so lucky the designers want to keep you," Marcel said pointing a finger at Christina. "I wanted to fire you. Instead you're suspended for one week. That'll give you time to think about what you did."

Christina glared at him. "Whatever." she stomped off to the dressing room to change. Robbie was right behind her.

"Sir," someone told him. "You're not supposed to be back here."

"Fuck off." Robbie said before slamming the door. He went over to Christina. "Alright, who told you to wear that slut uniform?"

"My asshole boss," She removed his jacket and threw it at him. "Who told you to bring a slut to my show?" She folded her arms and glared at him.

"That's Colin's girl," he said. "He couldn't bring her here. Since I got out of work early, I thought I'd surprise you. He asked me to bring her so I did."

"Oh," Christina was embarrassed on top of everything else. "Well it almost cost me my job."

They stared at each other for a moment before Robbie spoke. "I guess we're gonna have to work on our trust issues if we're going to do this relationship thing."

"Yeah,"

"By the way, I really like that outfit." He smirked as he looked at her. "Very sexy."

"Get out of here so I can get dressed." Christina said, nudging him.

"Okay, let me go get a cab for Bree. There's something I need to talk to you about."

"Yeah? What if I don't wanna listen?"

"Oh trust me you're gonna want to hear what I got to say. Be right back." Robbie left.

As Christina changed into her street clothes she sulked over the events of the evening. She felt so embarrassed. Robbie showing up with that girl really threw her. It ruined her show. That douche Marcel wanted to fire her. Thank God he didn't, she really needed the job.

Christina met Robbie outside the back door. He stood by his car with his hands in his pockets.

"You want to go somewhere to eat?" He asked. "I know someplace nice and quiet for us."

Christina nodded before sitting in the passenger seat. As they drove in silence she wondered about his strange behavior. He seemed a little distant. Oh no, what if he wanted to break up with her? Maybe he was put off seeing her wearing that whore costume out in front of all those people? That damn Marcel. She would never forgive him if he ruined her first real relationship.

Robbie took her to a little Italian restaurant. They had a secluded table in the corner. Robbie ordered for both of them. As soon as the waiter left Robbie leaned across the table and took Christina's hand into his own.

"What did you need to talk about?" Christina asked.

Robbie looked at their hands holding each other. He cleared his throat, trying to get his thoughts together. He was so nervous but he had to do this. "Christina, I know we just became a couple but--"

"It wasn't my fault."

He was confused "What wasn't?"

"Me wearing that hoe outfit," she said. "I didn't want to wear that but my boss made me."

He shook his head. "That's good to know but I don't mean that." He took a huge gulp from his drink. He needed the liquid courage. "What I'm saying is I don't like the idea of anyone looking at my woman that way but me. I want you to be mine, all mine, body and soul. That means that no one can look at you but me and me only. Do you know what I'm trying to say?"

"Are you proposing?"

"What? No! I mean, uh, no." Robbie stuttered before taking some more liquid courage. "I'm saying that I like you a lot, Christina." He gave her hands a squeeze. "I really like you a lot. I can't put it into words yet but I want to take this to the next level. But that's up to you."

Christina smiled. "I like you too, a lot."

Robbie looked surprised. "Really? Does that mean--"

"Yes," she said. "I think I'm ready to go to the next level with you."

Robbie kissed her hands.

Back at the apartment Robbie and Christina kissed for a moment before she excused herself. "I just need to freshen up a little."

"Okay, baby," he kissed her on the forehead. "Don't take too long. I got a surprise for you."

Christina went into the bathroom. She jumped into the shower quickly, shaved her legs and removed her makeup. She wanted to be all natural for him.

While she was in there Robbie went in her room. Lucky for him she had scented candles in there. Perfect for the mood. He lit all of them, then put rose petals on the bed and condoms on the nightstand. He took Sandy into his room with her bed and toys.

"I need you to stay in Daddy's room," he told her. "And for God's sake please don't howl. Not tonight."

Robbie shut the door. He quickly washed up in the kitchen sink, combed his hair and took a swig of Scope. Then he waited for Christina in her room. He felt so nervous.

Christina came in wearing a short silky nightie. Classy and hot, he thought, a great combination.

"Ahem, you look very nice tonight," he said.

Christina was touched by the effort he put into the room with the candles and the rose petals. There was also wine and strawberries.

Robbie caught her looking. "I thought I'd make your first time a little special." He handed her a glass of wine. They took a few sips from their glasses before he took them. "Let's save some for later."

Robbie moved closer, took her face in his hands and kissed her deeply. Christina returned his affections.

Then Robbie suddenly picked her up and took her to bed. He removed his shirt and joined her. They continued kissing. He moved his hands under her nightie, feelings her breasts. Slowly he slipped the nightie off.

"Wait a minute." she said, feeling a little scared.

"It's okay," he said, touching her face. "Just relax, it's all good."

Robbie went back to kissing her, moving from her neck to her breasts, kissing the nipples. He took his time to lick and stroke.

Then he slid down to her belly. Christina watched as he pulled her bikini panties down her legs.

"Robbie? What are you doing?"

Robbie was now under the covers, his head under the edge of the blanket. "You're gonna love this, I promise you."

He gave her a wicked grin before he disappeared beneath the blanket. Christina could feel him kissing and fondling her thighs. His fingers slipped inside, sliding in and around. That felt sooo good. Christina was responding.

Then his tongue moved between her legs.

Christina lay still as Robbie moved his tongue against her sweet spot. It felt weird and ticklish at first, then tingly. Very, very tingly.

Robbie wrapped his hands around her thighs and dove in. He knew she was enjoying it by the squirming and moaning she was doing. One of her legs was thrown over his shoulder and across his back.

Christina had a difficult time being still. She had never experienced this kind of pleasure. She grabbed his hair as he took her over the edge, screaming.

Robbie moved above her as she tried to catch her breath. "So," he smiled. "How did you like that?"

"Wow," Christina giggled. "That was just. . .wow."

"I know right." He sat next to her. "Are you ready to go all the way?"

Again Christina was afraid. This was it, the real deal. "Is it going to hurt?"

"It might if you're tense," he said. "Just relax, it'll be okay."

Robbie removed his shorts and tossed them on the floor. They were now naked. Christina saw how smooth and lean he was, with shapely legs and chest. Then she snuck a look below his waist.

"Jesus!" She said.

"What?"

"You're. . .kinda huge."

He grinned. "Thanks. It's all yours. Do you wanna try anything before we do this?"

She knew he was talking oral. "Um, maybe later on."

"Okay, that's cool." Robbie took one of the condoms from the nightstand and tore the packet open with his teeth. Then he carefully rolled it on.

Christina lay back as Robbie moved above her. She moved her legs apart to give him room and tried to relax. He gave her another kiss.

"You are so beautiful," he murmured. "Are you ready?"

Christina fondled his back as they embraced.

Then she felt it. A sudden sharp pain. Oh Jesus, this was it!

Robbie slowly eased himself inside. Then he was still so she could get used to the feeling. "Does it hurt?" He whispered in her ear.

"Yeah," Was he kidding? It hurt like hell. He was so huge. This was not how she wanted her first time to be.

Then just like that the pain was gone.

"Can I move?" Robbie asked.

"Yeah go ahead."

Balanced on his elbows Robbie slowly and gently moved back and forth. Christina gradually relaxed.  There was no pain.  She was beginning to enjoy having him inside, it felt so awesome.

She watched his face closely.  It was tense, jaw clenched as he continued moving slowly, holding himself back so he wouldn't hurt her.  He was gasping as he kissed her cheek.

"Christina." Robbie could feel himself getting close.  "Christina, I'm gonna. . .Oh Jesus!"

Robbie's face turned red and his body tensed up.  Christina held onto him tightly as he moved faster.  Her tingles returned.  Then he stiffened and moaned.

"Oh man."  He hovered over her, now still and gasping, his face red.  "Oh wow."

Christina was still holding him.  She gave him a kiss.  "Is it usually that good?"

"Not the first time it isn't."  He eased out and lay on his side.  "That was beyond amazing.  You sure this is your first time?"

Christina lay in his arms.  "I feel different now, I can't explain it.  I'm not a virgin anymore, I can't believe it."

"Welcome to the wonderful world of sex, babe." He said, giving her another kiss.  "Hope you have your strength, cause we're not done yet."

Christina returned his kisses.  They lay back and rested, completely satisfied and happy, looking forward to many nights ahead of them.
