A Bath and More

Mary was supposed to meet Steve for afternoon drinks at a bar in his part of town, which Mary was happy to describe as 'working class' and not seedy in any way. It had taken a bit of convincing to be allowed out without a chaperone. Consequently, Martha knew about Mary's late night outings with Steve. The old woman was no fool. They had a sit down conversation about it, in which Martha acknowledged that Mary was a young lady, old enough to be considered an adult who would make her own choices. Her only advice was that Mary be discreet and not do anything that might get her into trouble. Martha realized that it was a new world after the war and that women were expressing their freedoms, her own granddaughter among them. If Mary wanted to be out with a man, so be it. Have her dalliances. But be careful. Apparently, Martha did not see this relationship in the long term.

Mary saw it a bit differently. She and Steve had spent a lot of time together and she could tell that she was starting to fall for him. They had fun together and he made her feel comfortable. He was kind and courteous and always a gentleman. He made her laugh and he made her think. And of course, he was one of the most handsome men she had ever seen. The only thing that may have made him unsuitable was his social class.

Steve arrived a bit late to their meeting and Mary was dismayed to find him covered in engine grease. He apologized profusely and said that he'd had to do some unexpected work on the airplanes. He hadn't even bothered to change out of his work clothes since he knew that he was going to have to take a bath. Mary was invited back to his flat while he cleaned himself up.

She was excited to get to see where he lived. The building was nondescript, and they climbed two flights of stairs inside before he let her into one of the apartments. Mary looked around as they entered. It was humble, but clean and tidy. At least he wasn't crammed into one of those tenements.

"It's lovely," she said, honestly meaning it, even if she couldn't picture herself living in a place like this.

Her words served to reassure him of what he felt already, that she was close to reaching her climax. Letting out a soft whimper of his own, he made sure to keep up that same pace, neither slowing down nor getting carried away and picking up speed, or she might lose her momentum. His head tipped just so and his gaze fell down between them, trying to catch a glimpse of her body as she moved her hips against him, legs spread wide as his hand rubbed against her, finger pushing into her tight heat.

"I've got you, Mary," he practically purred, his own breath a little labored as he kissed her temple. "Let go... let me hear you."

He held his breath in as he both felt and heard her orgasm, hand moving fast against her, then slowing into a softer and smoother pace as she started to climb down from her peak. His cheek pressed against her forehead and he closed his eyes for a moment, burying his finger into her and staying there for a few seconds before pulling out in one single motion, hand catching her waist.

Swallowing dryly, he tipped his head and pressed a kiss to her forehead, then down to her cheek, urging her to look up so he could kiss her on the lips. "I take it that felt good."

He mirrored her grin, though he wasn't particularly worried about her not enjoying that. It had been more than clear that it had felt good to her— more than good, even. He was also glad for that, that she wasn't reluctant to express her own pleasure.

"You felt incredible, too," he murmured, washing his hand off in the water before lifting it up to brush a strand of hair behind her ear. "Do you... you want to move to bed?"
rightly: (thirty two.)

That gave him a bit of pause, and for more than one reason. He knitted his eyebrows at first, then let out a chuckle, shaking his head.

"I don't mean— we don't have to do anything more than this, Mary. I'm perfectly happy with just touching you right now." Even if he might be going a little mad with how badly he wanted her right now, he could cope with it. He certainly wouldn't force her or so much as try to persuade her into doing something she wasn't ready to.

However, the way she said it implied something else entirely. Like the only thing stopping her was the possibility that she might get pregnant— and he definitely had a solution for that.

"But if you want to, I have a way for us to... do more," he said, licking his lips a little awkwardly. "I have condoms. Rubber sheathes," he added, figuring she must have at least heard of them, even if never seen or made use of one.

Steve smiled lopsidedly at her question, tipping his head a little. "Yes, I should hope so." Or else it seemed a little pointless that anyone would use them. He at least never had any issues.

"If you want to, Mary, then... I'd like that very much," he said softly, closing his eyes as he returned her kiss. "I'll make you feel good, too."

Smiling against her lips, his nose bumped lightly against hers, hands nudging gently at her waist. Her words only made him more excited and eager to do more, and that definitely wasn't going to happen while they were still in the bath. "Get up, then. Bed's far more comfortable." And she was lying partly on top of him, so she'd need to get out of the tub before him.
rightly: (eleven.)

Though he took her hand, he got to his feet with ease, his other hand propped on the edge of the tub, then he climbed out. He didn't mind the wet floor much, and once he was standing outside of the tub, he pulled the plug from it, then fetched another towel to dry himself off too.

He kept close to Mary all the while, admittedly distracted by all the kisses but he sure wasn't about to complain. Humming softly, he finished drying off his back and hair, then dropped his towel on the floor and reached out to help her finish up a little faster.

He watched with a sort of awe as her long hair fell down her shoulders, one of his hands brushing lightly down the length of the strands. Taking her hand, he followed her quietly to the bedroom, then stepped closer once she sat down.

Cupping her face in his hands, he leaned down to kiss her, letting out a soft hum against her lips as he climbed onto the bed on his knees.

It would be a little strange not to stare, right now. They were both completely naked and getting into bed together; if she had no desire to look at him then they really shouldn't be doing this. Steve for one seemed as unbothered by having her gaze on him as could be, if anything he seemed pleased to find her staring so openly.

Lying down while facing her, he slid a hand up her arm, fingers brushing a stray strand of hair out of her face.

"Yes," he smiled, fingers stroking across her cheek and lips. "You can touch me all you want."
rightly: (forty two.)

Wetting his lips and swallowing dryly, Steve closed his eyes a moment in a bid to keep himself calm and collected. Even the faintest touch of her hands on his skin was driving him mad right now, but he didn't want to rush her either. He wanted her to take as much time as she needed or wanted to get used to him, to make herself comfortable with the intimacy of the moment, to explore and learn him the way he had her in that bath.

When her hand reached his groin, though, it was impossible for him not to react. Inhaling sharply, he let out a soft whimper, his hand dropping to her arm and curling there just a hint. His knees shifted slightly apart, his back tensing and hips swaying faintly on the bed.
rightly: (forty eight.)

[personal profile] rightly 2017-06-28 12:24 am (UTC)(link)
He would have promptly told her to keep going if she showed any signs of stopping, but as it was it didn't seem like he had to. He breathed in soft little pants as her hand touched along his cock, purring again when her fingers slid farther down and cupped his balls.

"God, Mary," he moaned softly, leaning in closer to press his lips to hers in a featherlight kiss. His hand dropped down to join hers, guiding her to grip around his erection and stroke him more properly. "Keep touching me."
rightly: (twenty three.)

[personal profile] rightly 2017-06-28 01:13 am (UTC)(link)
He breathed a sigh of relief against her lips as she followed his directions. His own hand curled around the head of his cock, squeezing a little tighter, a soft relieved groan spilling from his lips as he finally started to feel some relief on the frustration that had only grown over the past few weeks.

Not that it would last much longer, because Mary was naked and right there on his bed, and God... he wanted so much more. Wanted to have her completely. And now that she wanted it too, this would never be enough.
rightly: (forty.)

[personal profile] rightly 2017-06-28 01:26 am (UTC)(link)
"Yes," he breathed the answer thoughtlessly, immediately followed by a soft little whine. "No... no. Stop— hold on."

He took his hand from the head of his cock, settling it near her wrist instead, and gently tugged her hand away. Lifting it up, he kissed her fingertips, then across her palm, down to the inside of her wrist and along the length of her arm. "I want you. I want you so badly, Mary..."
