Chapter 11

Who would have thought that a morning in the woods would be this exciting! Okay... technically we haven't even made it into the woods yet but to me it didn't matter. Just the sight of Jack walking in front of me, shirtless, was enough to keep my blood pumping wildly.

With every step I could see his muscles bunch and relax, just begging for me to run my fingers all over them. I even wanted to smooth those same fingertips over the light splattering of freckles that adorned his broad shoulders.

"I hope you know where you are going?" I said in a light, sing-song voice, knowing full and well that he had no clue where we are headed. I just had to say something, hoping it would pull my mind away from those muscles! Hell, if I'm not thinking about that the only other thing on my mind is how a virgin like him could possibly know so much about pleasing a woman? Maybe he was lying when he said he was a virgin? It's possible after all... I mean, women do it everyday... right?

"Nope, not one bit. But if I had to take a guess, we are on a trail right now so it must lead somewhere or there wouldn't be one. Not only that but there seems to be a little more light ahead of us, maybe there is a clearing up ahead or a field of grass... right now anything will do." Jack answered, that last bit almost a whisper compared to his answer.

"Just so long as ya' don't get us lost out here. Well I guess I wouldn't really mind as long as you're here to keep the monsters away." I teased, tugging softly on the waistband of his shorts.

"I'd never let anything happen to you." Jack said under his breath, not meant for me to hear, I'm sure.

We walked along in silence, me too absorbed in Jack's body. Jack, quiet for his own reasons I'm sure but it still made me slightly uncomfortable. I never could stand silence... maybe that's why I talk so much?

Still mesmerized in Jack, I ran straight into him when he stopped directly in front of me. "Whoa! Warning next time, huh?"

"Sorry." Jack turned to face me, his body still blocking the trail in front of us. He shrugged the backpack on his shoulder up higher before putting his hands on my shoulders and pulling me to him gently.

I didn't even try to resist him as he lowered his mouth to mine, successfully capturing my own in a soft, almost lazy kiss. I swear if he hadn't been holding me up, I would have fallen straight on my knees in the dirt covered trail. This man just seemed to have that affect on me... a magnetic force that seemed to pull me to him completely.

"Told you I wouldn't get lost." Jack said once he pulled away from my needy lips.

I looked up at him, my face the perfect picture of confusion. "Huh?" Damn, he sure knew how to make me think of nothing but him.

Jack only chuckled before releasing me and stepping behind me. In front of me was one of the most romantic spots I had ever had the pleasure to lay eyes on. Thick, tall trees surrounded a brightly lit clearing, complete with it's own pond and soft rays of sun that found their way through the canopy of trees above. I could hear the sound of the crickets chirping in the heat of the morning as well as the rustling of birds in the leaves high above us. Hell, there was even the storybook white swan swimming lazy circles in the lily pad covered water.

"Wow..." I said, eyes wide in wonder.

"My thoughts exactly." Jack said. He stared straight at me, and even though I was talking about the sight in front of me I couldn't help but blush slightly at his words. No man had ever made me feel as special and unique as this man did. Of course I couldn't verbalize any of my thoughts but I'm sure that by the look of absolute adoration on my face, Jack got the idea...

"It's beautiful, Jack." I whispered, trying to hide the fact that he had flustered me deeply.

"Not as beautiful as you." Jack said, still staring at me. Okay, it was a bit corny... but damn if I didn't almost swoon right there, and trust me I'm not really the swooning type.

"Jack, are you trying to get in my pants?" I said, shrugging my shoulder and batting my eyelashes at him flirtatiously. Anything to distract him from my soul bearing attitude...

"Didn't I already get there? Although I sure wouldn't mind a few more goes at that..." Jack said jokingly, his beautiful eyes told me otherwise. Everything in his gaze reflected everything that was on mind... trust, shock, lust... overall joy.

"Just a few?" I teased yet again.

His pupil's dilated to the point where all the color was gone.

"More than a few." His deep husky voice said, hitting me straight at my core. How in the hell could one man be so sexy, open, and believable but sooo scary at the same time?

Yes, I said scary. He scares the bejezzus out of me! Even though everything in me tried to deny it... he was my kryptonite. Plain and simple. Even if the idea of marriage crossed my mind, I would have picked him to be my husband in a heartbeat! But being as it may, I wasn't thinking about marriage and he wouldn't obviously not want to go that far... but then again.. what's wrong with marriage? Nothing I guess but I'm not ready for that. Am I?

Of course my stomach decided to make itself known and growled loudly, reminding me of the fact that neither one of us had eaten breakfast. "Jack, I'm hungry. Do you see a place we can settle in? I'd love some of those omelets that Micah packed for us..."

Jack took a minute to look over our new 'secret spot' before pointing to a rock I hadn't seen on first glance. There it sat, flat as could be and ready for us to spread the blanket on and... well you get the idea!

"Perfect." Jack said, still looking off into the distance at the rock. Deciding to take matters into my own hands I took off at a brisk pace towards the rock, ready for whatever Jack had planned next. Of course I was secretly praying for a repeat of our activities earlier and the night before. This man really knew how to make a woman 'happy'.

"In a hurry?" He asked loudly, the smirk evident in his sexy voice.

"Depends on what you're talking about." I yelled back suggestively, almost to the rock.

I just couldn't help but tease him, ya' know, just a little bit!

"Are you talking about in a hurry to eat? Or in a hurry to run my hands down that sexy chest of yours? Or in a hurry for me to rip those shorts from ya' body, push ya' down on this rock and ride you 'till you can't help yourself?" I finished just as Jack caught up with me.

His strong arms pulled me against his chest, nearly taking the breath from my lungs... who am I kidding? Just the sight of those broad shoulders is enough for me to be breathless, let alone molded against his body... that was enough for a woman to develop heart palpitations.

"All of the above." he said, his breathing slightly labored from the chase.

"Hmm... I think I'm ready for some food!" I said, jumping away from him again, giggling despite my sudden nervousness.

"Food? Are you sure about that?" He said, running his hands down his chest in a seductive way.

My mouth immediately parched and my tongue stuck to the roof of my mouth... damn this man for being so sexy!

"Ye... I mean no! I mean yes! Oh fuck, I don't know!" I said, too exasperated to care... he just was too much for me to think clearly.

"Yes... or maybe no... I think we could just eat. Plenty of time for me to make you scream later." Jack said, a slight blush coloring his cheeks the only clue that he wouldn't have normally said something like that. Of course that just made me want him even more!

"Hurry." It was all I could say. Just the thought of him in me again had my muscles quivering.

Jack let out a nervous chuckle before following me to our new picnic spot. With the rock at our back, we would be secluded from any prying eyes... not that I expected any one to be out here in the middle of no where. Also, not the first place I would have picked for the blanket but... it happened to work out better.

Once Jack laid out the blanket for me to sit, I was able to sit in the shade of the rock and cool myself off a little from the sun. I stopped to take a second to admire the quilt under us... handmade and old, it almost made me feel bad for even putting it on the dirty ground.

"What are you thinking about?" Jack asked, sitting across from me as I messed with the thread of the quilt.

"This quilt." Okay, even I had to admit, it was odd even for me me.

"Really?" Jack honestly sounded shocked, or maybe a little confused. "Why the quilt?"

Strange turn of events and topics but the fleeting thought of all the work put into this quilt made a small smile spread across my face in memory. "I bet you wouldn't think that I know how to quilt?"

"Do you really? How?" Jack started pulling containers from the backpack he had been carrying but his eyes were locked on me, interest clear in his eyes.

"My Grandma and Mom. They insisted it was a 'dying art' and after a while I believed them." I shrugged before adding, "I just thought briefly of the time and love put into this quilt. Here we are throwing it on the ground to sit on."

I chuckled, lightly fingering the slightly uneven stitches that held the colorful fabric together.

"Just think! One day one of my quilts will be used to have hot ass sex in the middle of the woods! Ohh, maybe I will make a camo one that will blend in with the grass!" I added just to let Jack know I wasn't going to keep a quilt from letting me ravage his hard body in the woods during broad daylight! Yep, sign me up for that!

Jack grinned back at me before offering me at bite of something out of one of the many plastic containers. I opened my mouth readily, not even looking to see what he offered.

Jack looked down at my mouth, curiosity gone and complete lust overtaking him. Unable to resist playing with him a little, I sure as hell made sure that when my lips closed around that delicious mixture of strawberries and pancakes, I made it looked sexy as hell. I let my eyes flutter close and my lips wrapped around his fork just right...

Jack moaned, an unexpected response, and my eyes shot open. He sat across from me, completely entranced in me. As he pulled the fork from my mouth I couldn't help but moan in response to his dark, lustful gaze.

"Jack, move the food." I nearly growled. My need for him so strong in that moment...

He didn't even question me, simply pushing the still closed containers off to the side before turning back to me and pulling me swiftly into his strong arms. Jack's mouth instantly connected with mine, hungrily devouring every part of my mouth.

His sun heated skin felt warm against my palms and it took me but a few seconds to shed my own shirt so I could feel him against me fully. The crisp, yet soft feeling of his dark chest hair rubbing against my tinder nipples was enough to make me squirm in his arms.

In less than a minute, although it could have been an hour, both of our shorts and shoes had found their way off of us and into the grass somewhere beyond the quilt. My blood rushed quickly through my my veins, more than ready to have another go at this hidden treasure of a man.

I used my weight to pull him down on top of me, allowing me to feel most of his weight against my body. There was just something about being nearly smothered by a man while making out or sex... 

"Jack. Please... I need you." I pleaded, after pulling away enough for me to catch my breath.

I could feel as much as hear his sharp intake of breath just before his mouth descended on mine and his hard length pushed smoothly in between my already spread and welcoming thighs.

Nothing seemed to compare to the way he filled me. Every inch made just right to fit me in such a way... hell I don't even know how to explain it.

Yet, right there, under the shadow of the rock and out amongst the peaceful sounds of nature everything slowed... Jack pulled back from my lips, taking his time. He looked down at me, the green halo of the trees above us a pale blur to the man that seemed to have knocked me off kilter.

"Sun... you look absolutely beautiful..." Jack whispered, running his knuckles down my cheek softly as his body continued to slowly tear mine apart.

Damn a girl sure could get used to this...

****

Okay everyone... I know it has been forevver! I'm sorry about that but I hope you liked it?! (Don't worry the wood's sex thing isn't over!)

Question for y'all: (Since its R rated and all) Do you like it rough or soft?

The majority will have Sun and Jack finishing it that way; rough or soft!

Love y'all!
