"Have fun Nat!"

She turns around giving a wink making Cass grin before turning back and taking a deep breath. Her ankle was still killing her but she was at least going to walk on her own. Wearing something simple, she decided to put on her guns and roses t shirt and some jean shorts. She had to go with some strap on sandals since all other shoes irritated her bite wounds. She took easy steps until she made it to the stairs. 

She looked at them and groaned. A yelp escaping her as she was swiftly lifted into someone's arms. Turning her head she is met with the beautiful eyes she has come to adore. She smiled which made him smile as well. Her arms wrapping around his neck as he carried her down the stairs. She began to wiggle but he didn't care and walked her towards the door. 

"Jax!" She says through laughter. He takes her outside. "We're taking the truck."

He took her to the truck and opened the passenger door. She looked at him with a raised eyebrow. "You're not driving Jax"

He chuckled but relented none the less and carried her to the driver's side before gently placing her down. She grinned as he closed the door chuckling gently again before jogging over to his side and climbing in. She started up her truck glancing in the trunk smiling before pulling them out of the spot and driving from the ranch. The sun just beginning to lower. 

She glanced over to find Jax looking around with a gentle smile on his lips. He looks completely different from the guy she met not so long ago. He has not been his stoic self since he left California. She liked this version and he looked happier. She reached over with her hand up. Jax looked to it with a raised brow, Nat just rolled her eyes before taking his hand into her own. Her eyes focusing back on the road as she could feel his eyes drilling into her head. His fingers then laced through hers making her bite her lip smiling. 

The drive continued until she found the familiar path. She turned going onto the narrow road. Jax leaned forward looking around for any signs but didn't ask. She grinned as the truck climbed the side of the mountain. She loved this area. The view was spectacular and it reminder her of the place he took her in California. Coming to the stopping point, she turned the truck around so the bed was facing the view. 

She opened her door and slowly climbed down as she heard his door open as well. She walked a few steps holding the truck for support as his eyes were glued outwards. She could see the amazement and wander in his eyes. 

"Wow"

"Yea, this is my spot" She said making his attention snap to her before his eyes widen. 

"Shit Natalia, I'm sorry" She looked to him with furrowed brows but he quickly walked to her snatching her back up off the ground. She giggled gently at his care for her. 

"I'm not broken Jax"

"I know but-"

"But... I can walk"

He frowned slightly making her peck his cheek affectionately. He cleared his throat and she giggled seeing some pink creep up his neck. She decided to not comment and reach behind her for the tailgate handle releasing it. Jax turned around with her still securely in his arms to once again feel stunned. He gently sat her down as he continued to look at it. 

Lying in the bed of the truck was a few blankets with a plethora of pillows against the back and a picnic basket off to the side. She pulls herself back into the bed before patting the seat beside her. He grins as he climbs in and crawls to the empty spot beside her. His arm coming up and around her shoulders so she could relax against him. 

"Thank you Natalia"

She turned to look up to him with a soft smile. "We haven't even started the date yet"

"Not that, well not just that... I'm just thankful for you in general." He shrugs but Nat could see he was serious. 

She cupped his cheek making his eyes focus in on hers. They continued to gaze at each other. Their eyes searching for the emotions they dare not speak yet. She pulled his face down gently allowing their lips to connect in a soft gesture as they moved in sink. After a moment she releases him and pulls back to look at him. His eyes remained close with a gentle smile. She pecked his lips once more before reaching for the picnic basket. 

"Now don't be mad but Maria totally made this"

He laughed heartily at her admission. "I've come to love her cooking almost as much as my aunts."

"I can't wait to tell her that"

A look of horror crossed his face making her laugh as well. His eyes eventually narrowing playfully, "You wouldn't dare!"

She just grinned cheekily while opening one of the containers. Inside was a delicious assortments of fruits and wraps. They began to open all containers as they picked at the different fruits while laughing at each other. Eventually finishing off the food just as the sun was lowering lighting the sky in a beautiful orange and pink glow. 

"How did you come up with this?"

Nat shrugged, "I couldn't really do much just yet with the ankle... And I figured you may be missing your spot so I figured I would share mine with you."

He leaned forward kissing her enjoying the sweetness from the lingering strawberries on her lips. He tugged her so she was laying down and he was partially hovering over her as they continued to kiss as if they were each other's air... without the other, they were sure to parish. Nat couldn't help but grip his shirt in her clutches pulling him impossibly closer. His groan causing her core to heat as his body pressed impossibly closer to her own. His body rotated so he was placed between her legs as they continued to indulge in each other. 

"Jesus love, we need to stop."

He pulled back sitting up on his knees as his hands rubbed down his face as he looked down at her. His eyes heated and in that moment, Nat just wanted him just as much if not more. She sat up kissing his cheek allowing her lips to linger. 

"Let's go home" 

Her voice a mere whisper in the evening however the sultry in it promising more upon their arrival. He nodded and climbed down before holding his arms open for her. She went into them and this time wrapped her legs around his waist tucking her head into his neck leaving feather light kisses. His fingers dug into her side as he quickly shut the tailgate and carried her back to the driver side. He pressed her back to the door for a moment tilting his neck allowing her to have her way. She smiled against his skin before bringing her tongue out and grazing the length. His cursing making her smirk. He lifted her up kissing her hard for a moment as he yanked the door open. He moved slowly to settle her back in the seat before hesitating to release her. She smiled seeing his lips red in slightly swollen. He quickly shut the door still cursing lowly and running to his side. He climbed in and instantly his hand went to her thigh. 

They made it home in no time with how Nat was driving. She didn't even turn off the vehicle before he cupped her face making her kiss him yet again. The hunger setting her nerves aflame. He tugged her to his side making her straddle his lap as her hands went to his neck holding his lips to hers. His hands going down to backside cupping her ass through the jeans. 

"Love"

His groan only fueling her on more. "Take me in now Jax"

He didn't hesitate throwing his door open, climbing out with her still attached and briskly walking inside. The truck long forgotten along with anyone who may have been watching. Walking in the house, their lips continued to meet momentarily not wanting to pull away. 

"Cass?! Keith!"

Nat yelled loudly praying they were gone. After a moment of dead silence she grinned looking to Jax who grinned widely as well. Her lips coming down hard on his making him moan as he climbed the stairs with some difficulty. A few stumbles later they made it to her room. He tried to sit her down not wanting to rush her however she clung that much harder. 

"I want you Jackson"

"Fuck"

He walked in slamming the door to her room shut as he walked with her attacking his neck to her bed. He turned and sat down allowing her to have full control of this moment. His hands after a moment began to wander around her hips and butt. She detached their lips and leaned back to pull her top over her head. The sight of a black silk bra making Jax stiffen astronomically below her butt. She could feel his strain in his pants and loved the effect she had on him. 

"You're beautiful"

She smiled leaning forward again before reaching for the hem of his shirt. Pulling it over him before her eyes gazed over the man before her. He was beautiful. That was all she could think. His muscles were prominent without being overly defined. Her fingertips leisurely following the contours of his muscles. The rigids becoming defined as he stiffened from her gaze. 

"You are perfect Jax"

He smiled showing his beautiful teeth at her choice of words. His hand coming up to lock around her neck yanking her back down to kiss him. Her lips eagerly taking him in as she slowly pushed on him to lay down. He complied as his hands ran the length of her back to land on her glorious ass before squeezing it. 

She sighed and began moving her hips forward and backward enjoying the friction. Jackson groaned as his friend was dying to come out. She reached behind her releasing the bra and leaned back to take it off. His eyes going to her chest. She wasn't embarrassed by her body. She was proud of the body she made and maintained. She came back down cupping his jaw kissing him tenderly as her tongue searched the contours of his mouth earning a throaty moan from him. 

"Fuck me Jax"

He growled before flipping them. He leaned back reaching for his pants the same time Nat went to work on her own. She watched as he removed his pants first before looking back at her. Him standing in boxers made her clench her thighs. He reached for her jeans and panties pulling them together down her legs as his gaze remained with hers. After removing hers, he stood straight before slowly pushing his boxers down. Both keeping their eyes locked on each other. He climbed back on the bed as she opened her legs allowing him to lay between them. His arm came around her waist lifting her to lay where he wanted her. 

"I want you so fucking much Natalia"

"No more foreplay. Now Jax"

He looked around and Nat realizes what he is looking for. She grips his chin making him focus on her. 

"I'm on the pill and I'm clean"

He nods his head no longer searching for where ever he kicked his pants. His eyes looking into the depths of her chocolate pair as hers fell into the ocean depths of his own. He leaned down allowing his body to lay against hers feeling the temperature of the room to skyrocket. His lips grazing hers before going to her cheek down to her neck. Nat closed her eyes tilting her neck as his teeth came out grazing her. Goosebumps littered her skin. 

"I can't wait anymore love"

"Me either"

He began moving his hips forward and backwards and he groaned lifting his head to look at her. "You are so wet..."

"Please" Her whimper plea making him pull his hips back enough to press to her entrance. He kissed her as entered her. Her body arching underneath him. Her core clenching around him making him moan from the pleasure. The sound making Nat practically tumble over the edge already. "Jackson"

Her moaning his name made him begin moving in and out slowly before he felt her relax enough and began pumping faster. His hands were clutched in her own beside her head as he could feel her reaching towards her peak. "Give it to me love"

He released one of her hands to bring it down to her bundle of nerves making her scream out his name as she rode out her orgasm. He continued feeling how her body continued taking him deeper. He loved the way she felt, the way her body took him in like a missing key. His head went to her neck where he began sucking on it hearing her moan more. 

"Fuck Natalia"

Their moans and groans filling the room and probably the house. Their bodies moving together like a machine. As they continued to climb, Jackson couldn't help when they both tumbled together the words that tumbled out of his lips. 

"I love you Natalia, I'm so fucking in love with you."

Nat was trying to catch her breath from the incredible orgasm as she looked him directly in the eye. He was being dead serious with no hint of deceit. She cupped his face in her hands. 

"I love you too"
