I love you- I thought of these words arranged in this order to be the most trivial thing. Yet here I am, utterly consumed by them, but more than the words, consumed by her. Her scent envelopes me and drives me crazy every time she is close by, making me want to devour her. Disrespect her body in the most respectful way. I want to do things to her I’d only thought of. But more than that, I want to do everything with her.

She is the bravest person I know. The strongest woman I know. I respect her just as much as I love her and I love her more than I love even football. The comparison may seem trivial but trust me when I say, after my mother passed away, nothing except football and Riya have ever made me truly happy. I know it is a crappy comparison, but football saved my life. It saved me from drowning.

“I trust you with my heart, body and soul, James. ” She says and the thread holding me together finally snaps and I want nothing more than to bury myself inside her deep.

I crash my lips onto her and hold her hands behind her back. Her tongue slides over my lip and my cock presses hard against my jeans. Her soft moans and pleadings make me even more hungry for her.

“Fuck, Raven…” I groan as our breathing gets heavier and sweat beads over our bodies. It is mildly warm in my room. My mind goes back to the night we first met, when she passed out on my bed. She was mumbling in her sleep that she has never slept with the same man twice, so I didn’t have “sex” with her, no matter how badly I wanted to. Because deep within I knew that I didn’t want to do it just once, not with her.

I could spend an eternity with her and yet that would still not be enough time.

Her hands glide under my shirt, tracing up and down my abs. I slowly pull her shirt over her head and undo her bra. Her perky breasts fall beautifully, nipples, hard as rock and her neck flushed. She is the epitome of beauty for me. Of course she has the body which I worship, but she has a heart, which understands mine in a way no one does and that’s what makes our every touch and every kiss so much intense.

I’d fall for this woman in every universe in every body and form.

“I want you to make me come on your fingers.” And of course her filthy mouth. I love all of her.

“Your wish is my command, Raven.” I am so hard that if I don’t force myself right now, I can come from her words. I slowly slide off her pants and discover she is soaked. For me. I have never felt more pride in my entire life. I slide one finger inside her and a soft moan escapes from her mouth. Her cunt is the sweetest thing I have tasted. Her back arches as I slide another finger inside her and she moans considerably loud. I love a woman who is expressive, especially in bed. And I love the sounds she makes for me.

“Harder. Faster…. I’m…so…god…so… close.” I arch my fingers inside her and rub her from inside while my mouth takes in one of her breasts. I tug her nipple between my teeth, knowing full well that it is exactly what will tip her closer to her orgasm. She pulls on my hair in a way that it hurts so good, her nails scar my back (war scars) and she comes so loudly screaming my name that you could hear her scream in fucking Egypt.

“That’s my girl!” I crash my mouth onto hers and finally pull the fingers out of her. I pull back to suck on my slick fingers which were buried inside her and damn she tastes so sweet.

“I want to taste it.” her eyes look at me with such heat that I am surprised that I am not burnt crisp yet. I crash my mouth on hers, giving her a taste of what she wanted.

“What do you want next, Raven?”

“I want to see you come apart for me.” Her shy smile and her confident eyes are such a deadly combination that I am a goner. I unbutton myself, slowly, deliberately. “You are such a tease.” She pushes me back and climbs on top of me. I flip her over and hold her hands above her head. I know she loves being thrown around as much as she loves taking charge.

“Where do you want me to come?” She looks down, all shy and brings her eyes back up to hold my gaze.

“Inside me.” she bites her lip and I can’t hold myself anymore.

“Good girl.” I pull a condom from the side drawer of my bed and quickly take my jeans and boxer briefs off. I am too hard to care about teasing her anymore. All I know is I need to feel her from inside, once and for all. I slide the condom on and lower myself on her. She spreads her legs for me, giving me enough room to be able to dig deep within her. “Let me know if it is too much for you or if you want me to stop.”

“Yes.”

I slowly slide myself inside her. We don’t need any lube because my Raven is literally dripping her slick on the bed. She gasps and hugs me tightly. Digging her nails in my back.

“Fuck…you are so tight.” She feels like what I imagine heaven to feel like.

“You are so big. I always knew you’d be too big for me.” A raspy laugh leaves my throat.

“You are my biggest ego booster, Raven. Now take it all like the good girl you are and come for me screaming my name until I see your legs shake.” Her eyes enlarge and her lips curve into a smile. One thrust and I am completely inside her. Her eyes roll back and another loud moan escapes her mouth. This is my favourite site. I want to capture this image in my head for the rest of my life. I want to bottle this feeling and keep it with me at all times.

“Oh my god, right there! Yes! Harder.” I slowly increase my pace and she digs her nails in my back so hard that it's probably bleeding, but that just turns me on even more.

I push myself as deep as I can go and feel her clenching around me. It takes everything in me to keep going. “I love you, Raven.” I say as I bury my face in her neck. Her scent…it’s so overwhelming!

She pants and moans as I thrust in her every time. “I’m…I…” her breathing becomes faster, harder and her body shakes as an orgasm soars through her, robbing her of her ability to form her words except for her screaming my name. But I know exactly what she was going to say. ‘I’m having the best sex of my life’. Too cocky?

I am unable to hold myself anymore as I let my release shudder too with groans and pants. We both catch our breath and I peel the condom off and dispose of it in the trash can. I slide into bed under the covers and she lays her head on my arm. “I was saying that, I fucking love you too, Marcus.” God, does that bring a huge smile on my face!

After making my sweet Raven come for the fifth time, our bodies are covered in sweat and bodily juices. But I am ready for round two. Just as I slide another condom on, Raven flips me over and props herself onto me. Her knees on either side of me. Her clit rubs off on my cock and it rushes blood to my groyne. I hold her hips and slide her onto me.

She hisses as she slides down my entire length and I am back in heaven. Her walls stretch around me and squeeze me at the same time. My breath becomes heavy and my vision clouds as everything narrows down to her.

“You take me so well.” I manage to say. Her raspy laugh and her nails digging in my chest, hungers me. I buck my hips as I thrust deeper into her and she shudders, trying to adjust to the last few inches.

“All of it. You will take in every last inch. You are mine. All mine.” My grip on her hips tightens and she starts moving by herself. Such a good girl. Her head falls back and I miss my favourite view.

“Eyes on me, Raven.” Her soft moans tell me that she is nearing her release. I hold her hips in place and start thrusting into her. Hard and fast.

Her eyes stay on mine as they start tearing up and her mouth tugs into a smile which tells me that it is a smile of pleasure. Tears of pleasure. I hold myself from coming so soon. She needs to come first.

I feel the sweat trickle down my stomach and my back and my legs. I see sweat trickling down her body. I follow every drop as it makes its way from between her beautiful breasts and to her navel and down her beautiful body.

“Come apart for me, Sweetheart. One more time.” Her nails digs in my pecs. “Let go for me, Riya.”

“You are going to be the death of me, Marcus.” she says as her walls squeeze me, so tight, making it impossible to hold my release anymore. Her body shivers on me and she falls on my chest and I quickly wrap my arms around her. I find my release at the same time as hers and it feels like my hunger has finally been satiated.

“Good job.” I whisper in her ear and feel her raspy laugh against my neck.

“I love you.” I tell her one more time. I cannot believe that I get to have this amazing woman all to myself!

◆◆◆

I am the happiest person on this planet as I make my way down the stairs to make breakfast for Raven. Our activities last night went on till dawn and just as promised, I did make her legs shake and she can barely walk now. I had to help her get to the bathroom to brush her teeth. And she was blaming me when she was the one who couldn’t keep her hands off me. I know…everybody wants a piece of this! But sorry ladies, not anymore. I’m reserved for a special someone for the rest of my life. Although, I am very proud of myself.

My streak of happiness is interrupted by a couple of black eyes in the kitchen. “What happened to you guys?” The smile from my face has not diminished even a bit.

George groans.“Your energy could be contagious.” He fills his cup with coffee and walks away.

“I can almost imagine him doing ballet in tights. He looks disgustingly happy.” Dan groans and walks away from me.

“Why do they got their panties in a twist?” I ask Sid as I pour a cup of coffee for myself.

“Bruh! Riya didn’t let us sleep a wink! Next time you guys want to bone, book yourself a room or book one for us!” Sid frustratingly walks away and yet I can’t help but feel proud and happy about last night. The grumpies would get over it.

“I’m making breakfast.” That’s all it takes for the jocks to get over it and crowd around the table.

“Is Riya making it?” Sid asks me with a cute smile.

“No. She’s…she can’t…I’m making it.” Some nasty looks passed around followed by some hooting and cheering praise for me because it was very obvious what happened. Riya is clearly not the silent type in bed or outside bed to be honest. “Scrambled eggs and pancakes?” I ask the lot.

Sid walks around to stand next to me. “Are you sure you don’t need my help?”

“I can crack the eggs for you.” I offer my help. “And make the batter for the pancakes.”

“Yeah! That’ll be of huge help. It’s best for the house if you stay away from fire.” Sid squishes me over towards the fridge. I open it to find everything neatly arranged. There’s proper order and everything is so clean! I grab a dozen of the eggs and get cracking. After taking out 15 egg shells out of the bowl and straining the egg mixture twice the eggs were shell-free.

“Also, do you guys want to go to the gym later?” I ask everyone.

“You’re leaving her alone in the house?” Dan asks me.

“No I meant, you guys! Do you guys want to go to the gym later?” I am not at all embarrassed to shoo the boys out of the house so that I can enjoy some alone time with my woman. Without any ears around! Let her be as loud as she wants to be.

“I see what’s happening here…” George suspects my intentions, which I swear are not innocent whatsoever.

“I’m booking a room for myself for the weekend. If you fuckers want to crash.” Dan taps away on his screen.

I whisk the eggs in the bowl. “We’re not behemoths. You don’t have to sleep outside.” I try to act coy.

“And listen to all of that again?” Sid shudders besides me, making me roll my eyes. “We’re staying at that fancy 5 star hotel, right Dan?” George asks Dan.

“It’s the inn close to our school.” Dan hates spending his piece of shit father’s money. And I understand why. He works at the public school as a part-time assistant football coach. He likes to keep his pride and self respect as a human by at least paying for his basic necessities out of his own pocket.

“They have a pool! Woohoo!” George throws his arms in the air.

“It’s snowing next week.” I mention.

“What’s your point?” George asks me.

“Nevermind. Don’t forget to bring a chisel and hammer when swimming through the ice.” I pass the whisked eggs to Sid and start making pancake batter.

Breakfast is made and I quickly grab two plates and make my way to the room. I’m halfway up the stairs when I turn back to ask the boys- “So, you all will be gone when we come down, right?”

“I will kill you if you do it in the living room.” George shouts from behind as I close the bedroom door behind me. There is a weird fantasy of George, it changes every year.

Freshman year it was having sex in the closet. The coat closet in the living room- with the door open.

Sophomore year it was having sex on the porch outside which is very clearly visible from the kitchen and the living room. Thankfully our porch is on the back of the house with trees covering it from all sides, but I still don’t understand it.

Junior year he started doing it in the living room. I’m scared for next year. I just hope Senior year he chooses to just do it in his room!

When I open my room door I find Riya in bed, scrolling on her phone. Her face lights up as soon as she sees me and it fills my heart with immense warmth.

I make my way to the bed and put the tray down. “Hot tea for ma’am!” I give her the black tea she’d ask for.

“Thank you so much, captain.” My head jerks up to see her bite her lip knowing full well what she is doing to me.

“You are being a very very naughty girl, first thing in the morning. That won’t do. I guess I’ll have to give you a glimpse of yesterday.” She chuckles.

“I would like that very much…” she leans closer to me and whispers in my ear, “...captain.” If it wasn’t for the hot tea that she was holding I would bend her over and spank her ass until she begged me to fuck her.

I take a deep breath and grasp control of my feelings again. “You need to eat. For what I am going to do to you next, you will need a lot of energy.”

“Ooo! That sounds… exciting. ” She stresses on the last part.

“You have a very filthy mouth, Raven.” She bites her lip and takes a sip of her tea. I lean closer to her and kiss her lips. “And an even filthier mind. And I fucking love you for that.” She moans as I deepen the kiss. I pull away just as it was getting hot and she growls. That’s for teasing me.

We have breakfast and watch a movie together downstairs. Play cards, fuck, order in lunch, eat, fuck, play another movie, ignore the movie and fuck again until we are drained of our energy and order dinner while playing the new season of Demon Slayer. I pause the anime to go grab dinner and come back with plates and cutlery.

“Did you see the meme I just sent you?” she asks me.

“I broke my phone. I forgot to order a new one. Do you want to go with me to get a new one?” I sit next to her and hand her the plate.

“Or…” she puts her phone away too. “Maybe, we can both be off our phones and just…” she kisses me. “Spend time with each other and then we can buy you a new phone. How does that sound?”

“Perfect.” I smile so hard, it reaches my eyes. No phone would mean peace. Not having to worry and take responsibility for once.

◆◆◆

She stands in the doorway of the bathroom. “You should go. I need to wash my hair anyway. You have tangled it way too much for one wash with conditioner. I am going to have to apply the conditioner at least three times. I’ll be done by the time you come back from the gym.” Raven convinces me to go to the gym. It’s been two days since I didn’t go and we just saw George’s story on Instagram in the gym. It was a boomerang of him, shirtless and sweaty, shaking his head in disappointment with the text that read, “When you get kicked out of your own house.”

I am going to kill him when I see him. But clearly, the boys are at the gym. “Are you sure?” I ask her one more time.

“Yes, now go. I need to wash my hair. I’ll be here when you come back.” She kisses my lips.

“I don’t have my phone, so if you need anything, anything at all, call Dan, okay?” I kiss her lips and then her forehead.

“You’re such a cheeseball.” she chuckles.

“And you still love me.” I smirk.

“And I still love you, James. Maybe that’s why I love you.” she shrugs.

“God, I love you so much, Raven. ”
