Kim came outside and informed everyone that dinner was ready. She’d gone in earlier to make dinner and had been adamant that she was feeding everyone. When they’d all cleaned themselves up, they sat at the table that had extended out and now able to seat all eleven of them. Kim had brought in the extra chairs from the garage.
 

“Thanks, everyone, for helping me.” Said Holly. “I really appreciate it.” She squeezed Alex’s hand as there were choruses of ‘No problem’ and ‘you’re welcome’.
 

“I’ll be back in a bit.” She said and lightly kissed Alex before she walked back out into the garden. She sat on the rock seat.

“Hiya Dad. Sorry I haven’t been out lately. I couldn’t face seeing what that girl had done to your hard work. It made me angry and upset, and I’m glad my friends helped me put everything back together. I don’t think I could’ve done it alone.
 

They’re a really good bunch. I don’t think I could’ve found better friends anywhere, ya know.
 

Especially my Alex.
 

He’s…Dad, he’s just amazing. I don’t know what I did to deserve him.

I love him so much.

He’s the other half of me; I can feel it. I feel empty when I’m not with him, and I feel loved, wanted, and safe when I am.
 

You’d love him too, Dad. Protective, just like you were. Alway making sure I’m ok.
 

He’s everything to me, and I want to be with him for the rest of my life. I don’t understand how I know, but I just do.
 

He’ll be the best Dad too, like you.
 

Dad…I miss you so much.”
 

Holly’s head dropped into her hands as she sobbed.
 
She felt strong arms around her.

Alex.

She could feel him before he’d even touched her.

She turned into him, and he held her as she cried, both sitting on the floor. Holly wiped her eyes and looked up into Alex’s; his eyes were full of sadness.

“I don’t like to see you upset.” He said as he stroked her face. “And, um…I heard some of what you said. It was…” his voice was full of emotion and he didn’t finish his sentence. He swallowed hard, and he frowned.
 

Holly wasn’t angry that Alex had overheard her talking to her Dad.
 
He didn’t want her to be alone, and she would’ve done the same thing if it were him.
 
She stroked his cheek as she brought her face to his.
 

“I love you, Alex.” She said against his lips.
 

“I love you, Holly.” He replied and then joined their mouths together, tongues seeking each other. Her fingers tangled in his gorgeous hair as he held her tight to his body.
 

 
When they came up for air, Alex stood, taking Holly with him.
 

“I think everyone’s watching.” He smiled. Sure enough, eyes from inside the house were on them, so they went back inside for dinner.

Everybody fell into normal conversation around the table, and anybody would think that Ryan and Kyle had known Holly’s parents for a long time instead of a few hours. Everything was so relaxed.

Nick had to leave, due to his work schedule.
 

“Thanks, Nick” Holly said as she, Alex and Ryan walked him out.
 

“No problem. Speak to you later, Ry.” He said before he left.
 

“He’s a good guy, really.” Said Ryan on his way back to the dining room.
 

“I know.” She’d looked over, at Nick, when he was helping out and the expression on his face looked a lot different than the guy that had joked around the lunch table that day. She didn’t know, but she could swear he looked sad.
 
She knew Ryan had told him what had happened, and he’d insisted on helping, but his reaction was strange.

It was after nine when everybody said their goodbyes and left. They’d helped clean up after dinner which impressed Kim and Oli.
 

“I need a shower.” Said Holly and Alex’s groin stood to attention.
 

Alex had his clothes from earlier and Kim had already said he was welcome to shower there, separately.

Both Holly and Alex went upstairs and when they’d showered, Alex knocked on her bedroom door. She was in her Tatty Teddy Pj’s as she opened the door, letting Alex in.
 

They lay on her bed, wrapped up in each other’s arms. Holly’s fingers tracing along the muscles that lay under Alex’s shirt, whilst he was tracing circles over her hip as her leg was across his.

 
Holly let out a little moan as she ran her fingertips across his hard abs.
 

“Jesus, Holly” Alex said, scrunching his eyes closed. “I’m trying to stay calm here but when you make sounds like that…” his voice came out strangled.

His skin was already burning where her fingers touched, his heart erratic and his hard on straining.

As soon as she’d made that sound, his pants were suddenly
way
too tight for comfort.

“I can’t help it; you’re so gorgeous.”

As they were lying on their sides, Holly pressed against Alex’s shoulder, pushing his back onto the bed. Holly sat on top of him, straddling his hips, directly over his hard length.
 

“Fuck, don’t move!” He said, almost begging Holly to keep still otherwise he’d explode in his pants. He could feel his skin tingling all over as she ran her hands over his T-shirt. Feeling his body over his clothes.
 

It was agony trying to control himself because his head wanted to have a repeat of the day before, but his body wanted more and more.

Holly’s hands ran down his chest, over his abs and to the hem of his T-shirt.

She began to move it upwards, exposing his burning flesh, her eyes fixed on where her hands were.
 
Alex watched Holly’s face as her eyes roamed over him. Her lips parted and the took her lower lip between her teeth, then let go.

The look in her eyes was hungry. Hungry for him and he loved it.

He’d never liked the way other girls had looked at him, but Holly.
 

It made his heart thunder in his chest, his skin burn, and his dick rock hard in his pants.

“Lift up.” She said as his T-shirt neared his underarms.
 

He lifted up, and she pulled off his top, throwing it on the floor. She took in a sharp breath as he lay back down.

He loved the expression on her face at seeing him like that. Like she wanted to devour him in the best way possible.

His pants were close to cutting off the circulation.
 

He slid his hands up her thighs to her perfect ass, cupping her and squeezing.

As he gripped, it caused her body to rock forwards slightly.
 

“Oh shit.” He hissed, with the feel of Holly’s body rubbing against his.

Holly’s breath hitched as his dick flinched underneath her.
 

“I’m sorry.” He whispered, Holly just shook her head ‘no’ and then leant forward to take his mouth. Lips kneading, tongues gliding over each other effortlessly.
 

Alex ran his hands up her back, under her vest. As he stroked higher, he realized he hadn’t come into contact with any straps.

Holy shit! She’s not wearing a bra!

A low growling sound came from his throat, and he amazed himself how he could make sounds so animalistic when he was with Holly.
 

It was as if she had awakened the beast in him and it wanted to be set free.
 

Holly pulled back from their kiss and moved straight to Alex’s chest. She trailed light kisses down from his squared pecs to his sternum.

He was close to combusting.

His breaths were shallow, his heart racing and his dick throbbing.

“Holly…Oh my…
Fuck
!” He said through gritted teeth. He was fast losing control.

Holly looked up to him and darted her tongue out to lick the top of his abs.
 

Alex had to bite his lip as he whimpered, clamping his eyes shut as Holly rained kiss upon kiss and tiny, featherlight licks across his chest and stomach. Luckily, Holly had scooted back on his legs and was no longer sitting on top of his ‘restriction’ but his body had other ideas and was screaming to be touched all over.
 

“Babe, It’s too much.” He said, his voice straining.
 

Holly’s kisses moved up his body until she reached his neck. She grazed her lips across his jawline as she moved her mouth to his ear, stroking his body with her hands. His skin quivering beneath her fingertips. Alex’s breaths were ragged as he tried to control his body. He ran his hands down her back and gripped her ass, making her suck in a breath.
 

“Mmmmm, you’re so sexy.” She whispered into his ear, and he nearly unloaded himself just from that.
 

“Oh God!” He said, barely audible. He had no idea what she was going to do next until she gently sucked his earlobe.

No more.

He couldn’t.

In a flash, he brought his hands around her back, sitting up slightly, and flipped Holly so she was on her back and he was lying between her legs.
 

Alex propped himself up on his hands and knees so he could look down at her.
 

“You’re playing a
very
dangerous game, babe.” He said, looking into her eyes.
 

Alex could see then arousal evident in her expression.

Pupils dilated until hardly any of the irises were visible, flushed cheeks and short, shallow breaths.

Just the sounds of Holly’s breathing changes told Alex how she was feeling.
 

In a short time, he’d picked up on her reactions to his touch, kiss, whispers… It turned him on too and no doubt she could detect the changes in him. Hell, she’d honed in on them and tortured him with her kisses and caresses.
 

“I can’t help myself.” She said between breaths. “The more I touch you, the less control I have”. Hearing Holly say those words to him almost pushed him over the edge.

She finds it difficult to control herself over me! Fuck! Five days!

“Babe, you have
no
idea how hard it is to keep it together right now.”

As soon as he said the words, he lowered himself down so he was almost lying on top of her.
 

Her hands moving up his torso, leaving his muscles quaking, until her arms snaked around his neck and her fingers threading through his hair.

He loved how she did that. Holding him to her like she never wanted to let go. Gripping him desperately. She pulled his mouth to hers, sucking and licking his lips.
 

Alex entered her mouth, with his tongue dancing with hers. Making Holly moan and his groin groan in agony.
 

“How hard is it?” She asked as she broke their kiss.

Alex knew she was talking about his control, but he decided to describe a different meaning. He smiled and pushed his hips forward into hers, just for a second, his groin hitting her centre. Judging by the widening of her eyes and her mouth popping open with a gasp; she knew exactly how
hard
it was.
 

“You do this to me.” He said, painfully.

Just touching where his parts wanted to go was agony. A second longer in that area and he would have seriously messed up his clothes. Just like the day before, when Holly had stroked him over his jeans. He could shower and change then, but now he couldn’t.

Holly licked her lips, and Alex devoured her mouth again. He needed to feel more of her smooth skin, and he stroked down her side, over her ass, and down her leg. It was a pity her pj’s were long pants instead of shorts. He would’ve loved to have felt her bare legs around him again.

He gently moved his hands up, back towards her hips and then to her flat stomach. He leant on both elbows so he could use both hands without pressing his weight onto her. His hands sliding underneath her dark blue vest top, to her ribcage.
 

He wanted to go further, but as he knew she wasn’t wearing a bra he hesitated.
 

Holly released a hand from his hair and brought it down on top of one of his.
 

Shit. Oh my God

H
e knew Holly was moving his hand to her bare breast.

His thumb and index finger brushed the underside of her mound first, followed by his palm. Alex had to break their kiss to contain himself. His eyes shut tight and jaw clenched, as he recited his sports lists that had no calming effect whatsoever. Feeling her silky, hot skin without her underwear was causing him greater pain.
 

“Alex…” Holly whispered, causing him to open his eyes and look into hers. He could see understanding and frustration which mirrored himself. She was in pain just as much as he was and, so help him, he wanted to take care of it for her. He wanted to touch her all over, kiss her all over, lick her all over until he’d taken away any discomfort she may have. He wanted to watch her, gaze into her eyes as he brought her to orgasm.

Holly’s hand squeezed over his, indicating she wanted it and he happily obliged.
 

He cupped her large mound and brought his other hand up to cup the other. Holly’s back arched slightly as she bit her lip. Her mounds felt perfect, soft, and warm, in his hands. He gently ran his thumbs across her nipples, which were hard with arousal, and Holly’s mouth opened.
 

“Oh!” She squeaked, arching again.
 

“Holy shit, babe.” He said as he buried his face into her neck, kissing her down to her collarbone and licking across it.
 

“Oh fuck, Alex” Holly whisper shouted. Her hands shot out to grasp the bed covers. “I can’t take anymore.” She panted, her chest heaving.

“Alex! Your Mom’s on the phone” Oli’s voice came through the door as he knocked. “She couldn’t reach your cell”

“Uh, thanks” Alex said, trying to control his voice so it didn’t sound like he was in agony with a raging hard on.
