***ATTENTION:  CHAPTER HAS EROTIC SCENES***

*****

August 14th, 1981 (Friday)

All that craziness made that Robert visited Walter's house almost every day.

It was obvious the young couple were happy and in love.

The portrait was wrapped again and stored in the same wardrobe, along with Clair Smith's journal, Regina's great-great-grandmother.

Life was back to "nearly" normal. Andrea was the constant connection to the past, when she treated Robert like her real father.

Regina and Robert would always go out for dinner, to the movies or dancing. The intimate moments were still nothing more than kissing and hugging. As difficult as it was for him, he would never force her to do anything. Her past traumas were already enough.

On Fridays, Robert was always at the club. Firstly, because he loved to hear her sing. Secondly, to avoid any inconvenient situation.

Regina began her concert that night dedicating a song to him. For hours, she played and beautifully sang many love songs. Her long and tight dress, one shoulder only, shaped her body, making Robert filled with desire.

When the concert ended, he came to help her grab her things to take her home when she surprised him with a question.

─ Can we go to your apartment tonight?

─ Now? Why?

─ I want to make love to you.

If he hadn't been leaned against the piano, he would have fallen down. He thought he had misheard something.

─ Is there a problem with my proposal?

─ Re, why tonight? I'm not pushing you to do anything. I promised you I would wait how much time you needed it.

─ I had all the time in the world. I'm the one pushing you, doctor cowboy.

─ Are you sure about this?

─ Absolutely.

They took the car and drove to his apartment. Robert still couldn't believe it. He stopped by a drugstore and bought some condoms. Just to be sure.

─ Re, if you change your mind, just tell me. I don't expect you to do anything that you don't want to do just to make me happy. Ok? Do you get it?

─ Yes, I got it. I want to. I really want to.

Those words had a huge effect on him. He felt like his pants were going to explode at any second.

While Robert was driving, Regina watched him closely.

His big and strong hands holding the steering wheel, with long fingers and well-cared nails. Those hands could do such things to her body!

A strange heat came to her face just imagining it. His arms were strong and muscular, shaped by his farm life. His chest was wide. On the times they had been in her house's swimming pool, she noticed the thin layer of hair that make a path through his abs.

It was possible to notice the fuzz through his shirt opened around his neck. His body was muscular and apparently strong, without exaggeration. He exhaled sexiness. He had a very pretty face too.

His nose was pointy in a way that completed his square shaped face with his slightly forward chin. His mouth had a medium size and his lips were symmetrical, his teeth weren't perfectly aligned, which made his smile sexy. When he smiled, two beautiful dimples appeared on his cheek. That swept her off her feet.

His skin was white, but tanned by the sun, giving him wrinkles around his eyes when he smiled. His dark brown wavy hair was cut in a relaxed way. He had a big forehead with some locks of hair falling on it.

In all of this package, his eyes popped out due to its color and shape. There was something different about that look that seemed to look into her soul. Its green brown color changed according to the light or his excitement. To sum up, a beautiful example of man.

He noticed she was staring at him and asked if everything was ok.

─ I'm just enjoying the view.

He shook his head and smiled, a little shy. As if he wasn't aware of how attractive he was.

When they arrived, Robert put Regina's things on the couch, while watching her. If this was really going to happen, it would have to be an amazing and unforgettable experience to her. He needed to control his anxiety to be the man that she deserved, he thought.

He grabbed by her waist and kissed her slowly, then slid to her ears, and came down her beautiful neck. She smelled amazing. He hugged her tight, making her feel all his excitement. She moaned quietly. And the sound faded away. ─ Focus, Robert. Calm down, calm down, he mentally told himself.

He caressed her back, following his hands down her body and whispered:

─ You're so hot!

Robert started unzipping her dress, making her bra appear. He moved his hands around her chest and down to her breasts. He finished unzipping the dress and took off her bra. She was only in her underwear, and high heels. Sexier, impossible. He took off his shirt to feel his skin pressed against hers. It was a delicious feeling. His senses were all alert. He could feel every inch of her body pressed against his, her smell, her breathing, her taste.

Regina was wet with desire. Robert's skin close to hers, his muscular arms, his tanned chest. Something was urging inside of her. She wanted to feel everything that she couldn't the first time. Her mind wandered in thoughts. ─ Is it going to hurt that much again? It didn't matter, even if it hurt, it was different. She needed to get over her past.

Robert picked her up and took her to the bedroom. Laid her on the bed and admired her body. Reached his arm and turned it on the radio that was next to the bed. A slow song started playing. He slowly took off her heels. She was a vision. He started kissing her ankles, going up to her knees, thighs, licked her belly, until he reached her breasts. Stimulated each of them carefully, making them bulge.

Regina felt as she was floating. There was a tiny tingle between her legs, waiting to be filled.

Robert didn't seem to be in a rush and was driving her crazy with his kisses. He stopped kissing her breasts and went down to her belly.

His fingers started to slide down her underwear and his lips followed the path. That made her as tense as a violin string. He took off her underwear and tossed on the floor. Regina realized the direction that his lips were moving to. He grabbed her hips strongly and his tongue reached places that she had never imagined. Regina was squirming and her thoughts seemed numb.

She continued feeling his tongue doing unexplainable things to her most intimate part. Some was taking over her, a growing shiver, like she was going to be ripped apart, and then came an explosion of sensations that took her to another dimension. She couldn't see the room anymore, everything was spinning. Minutes, seconds, she couldn't tell. Slowly that feeling vanished and everything came back to normal.

She noticed that Robert was completely naked, putting a condom on his member and looking at her wildly.

─ Re, I'll come into you very slowly, so I can stretch you without any discomfort. If it hurts, just let me know and I'll stop until the pain goes away ok?

─ Yes.

─ Great. Try to relax. Let's give you that wonderful sensation again.

─ Oh! Yes, she confirmed with her voice and a nod. Only hearing his voice, that hot tension came back. She felt him coming into her very slowly, back and forth, each time going deeper. All of that fear of pain, disappeared. It was amazing, and she let herself go with that movement.

Robert kept a powerful mental control as he slid inside her so carefully. He felt pain for his repressed desire, but he ignored it. She deserved that attention.

– Wow, Re, you're so tight...

Regina surprised him by lifting her hips making him go deeper. He moaned loudly and bit his lips to hold himself.

─ Re, I'm on the edge here, he said moaning. He started to move faster, and she followed him. As he felt her legs stiffen, he let go and they climaxed together. He let himself go inside of her with a roar of pain and horniness, repeating her name countlessly. Feeling her coming again under him made his emission longer. Exhausted, he fell on top on her.

Regina felt all of that moment's fullness as she was filled by her man, by her love. She loved feeling his weight on top of her. The acid smell of sex was exciting. Everything was wonderfully perfect, magical.

Robert seemed to wake from trance. Regina felt an emptiness inside as he came out of her. He was very thoughtful and caring. The sweat was running down the side of his face, that looked relaxed and sleepy. However, his voice showed concern about her when he asked:

─ What did you think about the experience, honey?

─ Perfect, wonderful, splendid... and dangerous.

─ Dangerous? Why?

─ Because it can be addicting.

They both laughed and looked at each other tenderly. She, thankful for such joy, and he, swooned by the honor of making her a woman.

They laid in bed, exchanging secrets. Regina remembered a romantic song and quietly sang it to him. The desire appeared again, and the ritual of kissing and hugging started one more time led by another dizzying trip.

Tired, they fell asleep in each other's arms while the room became lighter with dawn.
