By late evening Julie’s temperature had returned. Jake watched her shiver, wanting desperately to comfort her as she lay bundled on the couch, but Michelle had the matter well in hand. She catered to the girl, bringing her juice and Tylenol, smoothing her hair and giving her a cool cloth for her forehead.
Julie drifted off to sleep, her fevered pink face giving the illusion that she was younger than her years. Michelle cleaned up a bit, putting away sleeping Jacob’s toys and setting the room to rights again, while Jake tried desperately to keep his eyes away from the young girl lying just a few feet away.
When the room was tidy to Michelle’s satisfaction, she sat down on the arm of his chair, but she obstructed his view of Julie so he pulled her onto his lap and held her there.
“Honestly honey, what did you to the girl? She’s exhausted.” Michelle asked as she snuggled up to him.
Jake’s heart instantly hammered painfully against his ribs, and his mouth became as dry as the desert.
“What do you mean?” He asked, irrational fear making his voice high and almost squeaky.
Michelle laughed and kissed his neck. “Nothing silly. She just seems especially tired. Probably the fever though, summer colds are the worst.”
She attached her lips to Jake’s earlobe and tugged gently, her signal that she wanted him tonight. He sighed and leaned his head back, tired and sleepy, and still afraid she could look at him and see the truth. Denying her was impossible, or she would wonder why, but his drained and tense body wasn’t much in the mood for sex with his wife. As he glanced once more at Julie, however, he felt himself stir with the memories of her sweet young body. God, this was crazy.
His wife sat up and eyed him seductively, the brilliant green of her gaze announcing her intentions. Leaning closer, she pressed her lips to his mouth and inserted her tongue. They kissed for a moment and Jake began to lose himself in the feeling. Michelle was such a wonderful kisser, very erotic and sensual. Working her body tight against his, she slowly explored the inside of his mouth, swirling her tongue delicately, sucking his lip in, and moaning softly. Just as he lifted his arms to pull her closer, his half-closed eyes saw movement and he looked at Julie.
She was staring at them, her eyes filled with hurt and accusation as she watched Jake kiss his wife. Using his eyes, he pleaded for her to understand as he allowed all the conflicting emotions that thundered through him to show on his face, but the girl just flounced over on her other side so she wouldn’t have to watch them kiss.
Hearing Julie’s movement, Michelle pulled away and looked over at her. “She must be uncomfortable. Why don’t you help her get to bed while I have a shower? Then we can take this to our room. Okay?”
“Sure,” he said, rising to his feet, grateful to get a small moment with Julie.
Michelle went upstairs while Jake locked up and turned out the lights. When he heard the shower start up for one of his wife’s half hour cleansing rituals, he went to Julie and stroked her hair.
“Julie, honey, are you all right?”
She ignored him, keeping her face turned away.
“You have to understand sweetie. Michelle is my wife; I have no choice really. Please baby, don’t be mad at me.”
When she turned to face him finally, he was relieved to see a glimmer of understanding in her eyes. Reaching out, she ran her finger down his cheek.
“I love you so much Jake. I do understand I guess, but I don’t like it. I want to be the one in your bed tonight. I feel so… left out.”
“I’m sorry about that angel, I really am, and I love you too. I want you in my bed just as much as you want to be there, but it has to be this way until I can figure something better out for us. Okay?”
“Okay,” she said in a small voice. “I don’t feel good Jake.”
“I know honey, you’re sick is all. I should have left you alone today and put you to bed instead of making love to you, even though I enjoyed every minute with you and every inch of your body.”
The girl moved closer, putting her head against his chest. He put his arms under her and lifted her up. Squirming, she cuddled close to him, wrapping her arms around his neck as he carried her up the stairs.
“Where are you taking me?” She murmured sleepily.
“To bed. You need to get some rest.”
“To your bed Jake?”
“No angel. I’m taking you to your bed.”
She was light as a feather and incredibly warm. Worrying over her, he slid her between the cool sheets and started to cover her up.
“I’m hot Jake. Take off my pajamas.”
“Um, not a good idea sweetheart. You do it.”
“Uh uh. You.”
Jake listened for the shower for a moment then tugged Julie’s top over her head. She sighed, her eyes still closed, and lifted her arms to allow him to pull it free. He watched as she breathed deeply, her lovely chest rising and falling with each inhalation. Helpless to resist, he leaned over and kissed the stiff nipples that topped each beautiful breast, then he pulled her pajama bottoms down.
She was bare underneath. Jake stared at her soft pussy lips, remembering the way they’d snugly held on to his cock as he’d fucked her. The young girl stroked his face and smiled with her sleepy blue eyes.
“Kiss me Jake.”
He leaned toward her lips, but she pushed his head down along the front of her body instead, shivering as she felt the moist trail he left behind on her hot skin. Tenderly, he laid his lips on her mound, breathing her sweet scent in and kissing softly. Julie groaned and spread her legs, encouraging him to work in deep for a liquid kiss that would hold them both until they could join their bodies together again.
Jake’s cock hardened right away, his young love’s naked sex so tantalizingly close to his face. Slipping his tongue out, he teased her plump lips, licking up the trace fluids that coated them. In her feverish state, her moans were even lower in pitch and full of such need. Watching her body’s reaction from the corner of his eye, and hearing the passion in her voice drove Jake high up the scale of arousal. Amazed at how strongly he always wanted her, he tongued her clitoris for a few seconds before reluctantly pulling away.
“What is it?” She asked softly.
“I can’t stay here. I have to go now, besides Julie, you really need to rest and get better.”
Groaning just a little, she turned on her side to face him. “Cover me up Jake, and give me another kiss before you go.”
Smiling, he pulled the bedding up and tucked it under her chin. She snuggled down and gave him a sweet smile. His mind flew, imagining the curves of her body as it must look arranged under the blanket that covered her. He brushed her hair from her face, kissed her cheek and just stood there looking at her until he heard the shower stop.
“Go now Jake. I’m fine,” she whispered.
Leaning down, he pressed his lips to hers firmly, tasting her once more before standing and walking towards the door.
“If you need anything Julie, just call out, okay?”
Sleepy and warm, she answered with a murmured okay, then let her tired eyes close.
Jake made a final check of the house, filling his mind with images of Julie as he carefully tried the doors and windows. Mostly, he was killing time as he thought; he simply couldn’t understand why she excited him so much. Maybe it was her eager youth; when it gave way, allowing her sexuality to emerge, she was like a volcano, spewing her passion far and wide, surrounding him with liquid heat, and God, he just wanted her all the time.
He entered his bedroom a few minutes later. Michelle sat naked at her vanity table brushing her hair. Jake took a moment to look at her. She really was very beautiful, with no sign of having birthed a chubby baby boy some nineteen months earlier. Her hair fell like shiny beach sand around her face and down her back. Straight, long, and naturally blonde, it came to just above her buttocks and had always drawn Jake like a magnet. He often imagined feeling it wrapped fully around his entire body and wouldn’t even discuss her cutting it.
At thirty-seven, Michelle’s body was in perfect condition. She stood five feet, ten inches tall, her long muscled legs attesting to her dancer history. Her waist was narrow, her tummy flat, her arms firm, and as always he admired her large, high breasts with their light brown, oh so exciting nipples. He knew his friends envied him; Michelle was a real prize and he was proud of her beauty as well as her strong, vibrant personality. Her sultry green eyes caught his in the mirror, her lips curving into a promising smile as she beckoned to him.
