The scent of candied apples filled the room, and the only light came from the few candles strategically scattered along the tub and vanity. Soft calming music played from her iPod and Ariana was immersed up to her chin in bubbles.
Sleep had not come easy. No matter what she tried, she couldn’t get comfortable. Even after they made love a second time, she still couldn’t fall asleep. The dull lower back ache she had been reading about had kicked in full force. Deciding not to disturb him, she had slipped quietly from his embrace and headed for the tub. In her current state, she didn't hear or see him come into the darkened room.
"Crash you, okay?" His voice was low and groggy.
"Mmm. My lower back has been killing me. Thought this might help."
"Is it?"
Sapphire eyes smiled down on her as she lifted the towel covering her eyes. "Not really."
Motioning for her to move forward, Jon sank into the hot bubbled filled water and positioned her between his legs. Once settled, Ariana leaned forward, wrapping her arms around her knees, allowing him better access to her back.
Using the clip that sat on the tub’s edge, Jon twisted the excess water from her long-wet curls and secured them on top of her head. Squirting a few drops of her scented bath oils into the palms of his hands, he peppered her left shoulder with a few kisses first, then worked the tension from the base of her neck.
Thick, strong, calloused fingers worked their way over her neck, across her shoulder blades and down her spine. With her head resting on her knees, she let out a soft groan.
“That feels so good.”
“Why didn’t you wake me for help then?”
“You looked so peaceful. Face all squished against the pillow, a little drool spilling from the corner of your mouth.” She shielded her face from the water as he flicked at her.
“Okay, Ms. I talk in my sleep.” Putting his hands on her shoulders, he helped her to turn to the left just a bit. Following his direction, she rested her arms on the tub's edge. Shifting onto her left hip caused some of the tub’s water to spill over the side.
“I do not talk in my sleep!” she gruffed.
“Yeah, ya do!”
“If so, what do I say?”
“Hmm. It starts out as mumbo jumbo about rigging something or other.” He used his knuckles to dig into the middle of her back. “Or barking orders at someone for not doing their job.”
“I do not bark!” It was her turn to splash at him. “I ask sternly.”
“Uh-huh.”
Still uncomfortable, she rotated to her right side. From this position she was able the lean further over the tub's outside rim. Directing him to the area just above the small of her back, he obliged, using his thumb to knead one spot for a few minutes, then moving across her back.
“Well, at least I don’t drool or snore.”
“Oh, you snore, trust me.” Eliciting a long soft mewl as his two fingers dug into her skin just above her tailbone, he chuckled. “You do that too.”
“Now I know you’re lying.”
“Trust me, I’m not. I’ve watched you sleep long enough to know. Every sound you make is different, and I can tell exactly what you are dreaming about by the ones you are making.”
Jon lovingly traced his middle finger over the cleft of her ass, then let it dip between her cheeks. Her purr-like sigh stirred a churning deep down in the pit of his belly. One he hadn’t felt in a long time. The intimacy of what he was doing wasn’t unfamiliar. It was something they had explored many times before throughout their relationship. One that commanded trust... heart, body, and soul. A level of trust she gave to him and only him.
Jon continued his ministrations, waiting, hoping she wouldn’t object, and as she arched back into him, silently urging him to continue, he had his answer. Maneuvering his body as close behind hers as he could for how they were positioned, he inhaled her scent and dragged his tongue over the sensitive spot behind her ear.
“Do you know how much I love you?” His warm breath caused goosebumps to fan over her damp skin.
The sensuous kisses he splayed over her neck and shoulder combined with the gentleness of his finger tracing softly over her rosette had her body easing and moving in tandem with him.
“You're my air.” Teeth scraped over her spine. “Without you I can’t breathe.”
“Jon...” she whimpered.
“Shh.” he whispered against her skin. Moving his free hand under her and took her nipple between his fingers, pinching and rolling the bud, relaxing her even more.
A disappointed cry escaped her lips as he released the taut peak, allowing his hand to travel down over the now noticeable life they created and nestle between her legs. Slipping two fingers inside her, he used his thumb to continue pleasuring her clit, alternating between lightly flicking and pinching. Bending down, he took her earlobe between his teeth and lightly tugged it, before moving down and nipping along the alluring curve of her neck.
“I can’t get enough of you.”
Circling her opening, he used the natural lubrication from her bath oils to slowly massage and relax the tight muscle, only giving pause, when he entered her, he heard her small gasp and felt her body tense.
“I got you.” he whispered.
Ariana shivered at his words and pushed back against him, her movement sending him deeper inside her and with slow tantalizing movements, her body gave way as her inner muscles clenched around him.
“Jon...” a breathless moan fell from her lips as her tremors began.
“That’s its Crash. You're almost there. I can feel it.”
Hooded emerald eyes shot open and looked up at him. She could feel it, too. Every nerve in her body was alive. But she needed more, something to send her hurtling across that finish line. Wanting to touch him, to feel him. With their position, she did the best she could and curled her arms around the back of his head, pulling him down to her.
As her lips took possession of his, she ravished his mouth, forcing her tongue inside, kissing him rough enough to bruise her lips and his. It was just what she needed to stoke the fire that had been churning inside. Arching her back, all her muscles went rigid as her orgasm washed over her, leaving her panting and breathless.
Circling her waist with one arm, Jon lifted her slightly into his lap and held her. In that moment, no words were needed, all the love they felt for each other could be gathered from Ari's soft sighs and the way Jon was still softly running his hands down over her shoulders and arms.
“You amaze me.” he whispered.
With those three words and that special moment they had just shared, tears filled her eyes. Without another word, Jon first got to his knees, then stood with Ari in his arms. After making sure she was comfortable, he slipped under the covers next to her and fell asleep.
