Hey everyone, I don't believe that all my readers get my bulletins, so I just wanted to say that I have been sick the last couple days, and I didn't want to do jack shit...lol, I know that I update about twice a week and it didn't happen this time round, but it will be going back on track after this sickness of mine is fully butted out the door.

Enjoy!

Harper's eyes watched me as I moved in closer to her.  I couldn't stand not being near her.

"Let me stay." I asked her again. 

She looked around her kitchen and then back at me.  Slowly, she took a step into my bubble and ran a hand around my waste.

"Okay, but lets go enjoy everyone else's company for a while."  The smile that she had didn't fully meet her eyes, and I could tell she was hesitant on letting me stay.

But with the answer I had, it was better then what I could have asked for.  She could have told me to go and jump of a bridge then to share another night with her.

She started to head back out, but before she could I made a point by taking her hand in mine, pushing her onto the counter and wrapping her legs around my torso. She yelped in surprise, but the smile that played her lips this time was real.  One she didn't have to force.  I was direct, blunt in what I wanted.  I ran one of my hands down her neck and a shiver assured me that it wasn't just me that wanted this.

I pulled her head down to meet mine, and when out lips met in such an innocent manor, my body erupted.  I didn't care for the pain that my rips let off, for I was in heaven.  I was in the arms of an angel, and she had me lost.  Her fingers in my hair, while I ran my hands down her back were the perfect mixture of bliss.

My head was already dizzy from the alcohol that we had been drinking, but when we pulled apart from one another it was on a new level.  I was drunk on her kisses, her touch, and I wanted more.

Reaching for her again she put a finger to my lips.  Stopping me.

"My mother is probably wondering what we are doing in here so long.  So unless you want to get a mouth full from her for the second time tonight, I suggest we make our way out."  I laughed knowing that what she said was true, but I didn't want to let her go.

Wiggling from my arms her eyes didn't leave mine until she had fully turned and walked out the door.

I could hear everyone outside, the few people that surrounded Harper's life, and longed to be a part of it.  It had never occurred to me before, that in such a short period of time, a person could mean so much to you.  I didn't want to leave her, to go back to the city.  I didn't want to see the boss that thought she was higher then me, and I must certainly dreaded having to tell her that I dropped the case...

I could stay for a little longer, but I would have to go back.

The bad thing about working for an agency was that I did have a boss.  And what a  pain in the ass she was.  She had been a friend of my fathers, and up until last year I had thought that was all it was.  But I had found out that in the past they had been lovers.  So working under her was a strain.  She was rude and full of her self, but I figured the reason she didn't like me, was because my father had chosen my mother over her.

Shacking myself out of it I focused back onto the present and walked out front to see Jason and my sister packing up to leave.

"The parties over? I wasn't in there that long was I?"  Lilly looked me over and chuckled.

"You must have been in your own world.  Di had gone in to tell you she was leaving and when she came out she said you looked lost in thought.  Nothing was bringing you out of it."  I sighed and nodded, knowing it to be true.

"Thank you."  Nodding herself she started on the folding chairs.

I made my way over to where Di was with Jason, and to my surprise they both were in pleasant conversation.  I hadn't seen them really speak the whole night.

"Di?"  Cutting into there conversation she gave me a pleasant smile.  I was truly not used to this side of her.

"Jason here is going to follow me to the agency to drop of the car.  Then he's going to drive me to my hotel.  I know I had told you already, but I had a feeling you didn't hear me."  Flushed I cleared my throat and ran a hand through my already dis-halved hair. 

"Yeah...well, thanks for staying tonight sis.  It was good too see you have some real fun."  Pulling her into a hug she hugged me back.

"Aha, funny, but thank you.  This was nice."  Taking one last look over my shoulder at them as they drove away I saw that now everyone was gone but Harper and her Mother.

Lilly had taken the baby monitor and headed inside, while Harper turned the hose and doused the fire.  Walking over to her with my hands in my pockets I tried to mimic a southern accent.

"Well hello there ma'am, how are you this evening?"  Her abrupt laughed was cut short by the smoke that came with the dousing, and was replaced with a cough. Turning the other way while leaving the hose on she came to my side.

"You sir, might have to work on that a bit.  Sounded awful."  Still laughing and coughing finding her hands going through her belt loops.

"Well, it got the job done.  You smiled."  Flushed she went and turned the hose off.

"I think it'll be fine to leave like that."  The amber still smoldering in the pit I watched as her eyes burned watching them.  "Fire danger isn't too high, but you can never to be too sure."  She whispered.  She was trying to prolong the moment.

"Hey, go for a stroll with me?"  Holding out my arm she looked at it.

"A stroll?"

"Yes."  I said after shuffling my feet.  "Never gone for a stroll?"

"I would say no sir, I have not."  Her skin flushed from the heat of the fire she took my arm in hers and I steered her over to where the barn was.  She had so much land here, and the only two building were the house and barn.  The rest were for the animals.

I wasn't sure what time of night it was, but I knew it was late.  The moon high in the sky we walked only using its light, and after a while of this we stopped a few hundred yards from the barn.

There was a large oak tree that stood before us, and I saw several names carved into the wood.  I saw Lilly's with her husband, his name was Edwin. And then I saw Harper's...with a scorched mark over it, the other half unreadable.  

She saw me looking at it and cleared her throat.

"A girl can only dream to have a love like her parents.  Ya know?"  Her eyes were misted as she looked at the burned bark, casting her eyes down, the shadows of her lashes hid her tears.

"There can still be love in your future Harper...you just have to let it in."  Sighing she leaned into my side, tightening her hold on me.

"Maybe.  But my world always seems to revolve around Jimmy's mistakes."

I hated the man.  I hated what he did to her and what he still did to her even not being present in her life.  Tell Harper I said hi.  His last words to me echoed in my head and I wanted to rip the memory away.

He was a snake.

"You won't have to live with his shadow behind you any more."  It was a promise that I wanted to make true.  I wanted to be the shadow behind her.  The man that held her when she couldn't be strong.

"Thank you."

We stood there for a while, what seemed like years, when her touch softened.  She turned in my arms and laid her head on my chest while I started to sway her from side to side.  There wasn't any music, but we didn't need any.  

The chirp of the crickets, the blue grass whistling, even the late night chirps of birds were all we needed to dance.  To sway.

Closing my eyes I wanted to take her in.  As close as I could to my body, and in the process found her lips.

I kissed her slow at first, measuring how much I could have of her, but when she gave me entrance and leaned completely into me I took her in my arms and devoured her mouth.  Her body responded to my advances, and before I knew it I had tossed my shirt over my head.

Never have I ever made love, or had sex outside either, but the moment was right.  I wanted her here under this oak tree. I wanted the dirt, the breeze on my bare skin with her skin in return on top of me.

Fighting to remove our cloths I knelt down in front of her.  The moment she laid bare before me I backed her up to where her back was on the tree and took her into my mouth.  Her cry cut through the open air as I took her in.  Her scent was intoxicating, and as I made sure to explore I slipped my fingers between her folds.

Her whimpers made my shaft grow even harder and it strained to be set free from my jeans, but I held on till I had her withering from my touch.

Her climax hit as I drove my fingers in her, my touch circling her clit.  I held onto her thighs as she dug her nails into my shoulders.

Once I had taken every wave of pleasure from her I looked up to find her watching me, her breathing hard and sweat dampening her skin, her breasts.  The moon light made her look even more beautiful then she already was.

Standing I took her mouth again as she worked on my jeans.  Straining at the belt I helped her and pulled myself free.  I couldn't help the in take of air as she wrapped her small hand around me.  Her touch made my skin burn.

"I want you."  I whispered into her ear, and in return she melted into my skin all over again.

Bare to the world I took her in my arms and made love to her on the grass, holding her legs to me and thrusting with everything I had.  Her cries hitched and her nails racked my back, but I took it all.

I had forgotten about my injury completely, and when I rolled her over to be on top I finally felt the pressure.  She noticed and stopped in mid thrust, but I shock my head and began the tempo again.  I didn't want this to end.  This night.  I didn't want her to leave my arms.

Throwing her head back she took me as I was sprawled on the grass as I took her into me.  Lifting my hips I rolled on her, nipped, kissed, and licked her.

I hadn't wanted anything to take this away.  But exhaustion and the coming morning made us retreat in our sated states. Wearing nothing but my boxer briefs and her in her panties we laid under the stares and drifted to sleep.

Even with the earth beneath me, and my body sour, I had never slept so good in my life.
