The
Quiet Before the Storm Part 15 - Finale In one fluid motion his lips made contact with hers with a feathery light touch. Sonny slowly cupped Alexis' neck in his hands, and gently pulled her body fully into his embrace. Kissing her with a restrained passion for fear that his hunger for her would consume him too fast if he was not careful. “Sonny, get a hold of yourself. Take it slow. You have all night. Make this a night she’ll never forget.” “SSSOOONNY.” Came the whispered reply from Alexis. Their lips barely a whisper apart. Her small voice brought him out of his thoughts, and back to the task at hand. The only thing she could think to do was run her fingers through his hair at the nape of his neck. Holding him to her, afraid that he might let go. To do so at this time would kill her. Little did she know he had no intention of letting go anytime soon. Sonny slowly traced a path with his tongue along the shell of her ear. His lips finally coming to rest against the pulse point in her lower neck. Her mewling sound reminded him of the first time he had kissed her there a year ago. He continued to sear her skin as he roamed her bruised lips, her chin, and neck. As moments went by, Alexis, becoming fed up with the barriers that still separated her body from his, finally pulled away and said, “Sonny, I need to feel your skin. I need you to touch me now.” As she held his head in her hands she pointedly looked him in the eye. He can see her eyes take on another color all together. They are glazed with passion and want. Little did he know his own eyes mirrored the same. With a glint in his eye he slowly pulled Alexis up with him into a sitting position. Never losing eye contact. He slowly began to unbutton each pearl that adorned her blouse. Reveling in the moment like an expectant child on Christmas morning, he began to open his present. His slow ministrations were killing her, but she wouldn’t say a word. Not yet. She’d let him have this moment. She closed her eyes and felt the silk finally cascade down her shoulders. Her chest heaved with each deep breath she took, awaiting the moment when he would free her from her restraints. Finally the clasp on the front of her bra popped open, and an audible gasp sprang forth from both of their parted lips. Alexis' eyes remain closed as she breathed in deeply, awaiting his touch. Sonny, overcome with the fire raging inside him roughly pulled her body upward. Alexis writhed and bucked beneath him, unable to form words. Simple monosyllabic responses would have to do for now. Alexis, wanting to bring him pleasure, pulled away from his mouth and hands. He looked questioningly into her eyes wondering if he has done something wrong. Alexis, not ready to explain herself, simply told him, “Sonny…lay down.” He did so, slowly, as she pushed his body down into the soft crimson pillows, wondering what she had in store for him. Alexis slowly moved up beside him and looked at him as she smiled. His eyes were closed, his body awaiting her touch. Totally trusting. Slowly bending her head to kiss him, she placed a chaste kiss upon his eyelids. One, then the other. She could feel him exhale as his breath tickled her throat, eliciting a small giggle from her, which made him smile. Not wanting to break the moment she continued on down, stopping to kiss his beautiful mouth. Softly flicking her tongue against his lips, he allowed her entry. As her tongue found his, their tongues wrap around each other. Not fighting for control, but looking for and soon finding that same, if not more powerful sensation they stoked in each other a year before. She was then free to explore the sweet cavern of his mouth. Feeling the vibration of his moan, deep and throaty in nature, his hands grabbed a hold of her elbows and upper arms. Pulling back from his mouth, she looked him pointedly in the eye and straddled his waist. The sight of the scar on his chest catches her eye. Dipping her head down she softly kissed it, branding his scar with her smoldering kiss. An audible moan escaped his lips as he reveled in her touch. Sitting back up and pressing her lower body more firmly onto his drove them both almost to the brink of insanity. She then threw her head back, eyes closed and in rapture of the feelings that the motion stirred in her. The temperature in the room continued to rise as they both feel their desire eating away at them. She finally stopped her movements after he pleadingly cried, “Alexis…please.” Sonny then ran his fingers through Lex’s hair lovingly as a peaceful serenity enveloped him. He is overcome with the joy and love he feels for Lex, and the beautiful gift of her heart, body and soul. Taking a moment to each catch her breath, she laid against his chest, trying to regain her strength. Sonny, wanting to reciprocate her gift, with out words slowly sat up and rolled Alexis onto her back. Looking into her flushed face he can see her want and need. She breathed shallowly and with trepidation not wanting to miss a minute of this moment. “Now is not the time to pass out Alexis,” she told herself. She is for a moment mute, like the quiet before the storm. As the intensity continues to build, She can stay silent no longer. She can feel it coming, like icy hot in veins. She finally cried out as white lightning and heat coursed through her body. After the flames in her body seemed to have cooled themselves, she took a moment to catch her breath. He gently placed her body back onto the blanket-covered floor while he gave her a moment to catch her breath. As she came down from the dizzying moment she caressed his back with her long manicured fingers, making lazy circles upon his skin. Listening only to the crackling of the fire and her own heavy breathing. He finally spoke, his voice muffled and almost unintelligible as he lay against her. “Alexis I need…” Reading his mind as well as feeling his desire, she cut him off. “Sonny… I need you. Now.” Lifting his head his heart smiles inside, happy to see that they are now of one mind. Reaching underneath her to unzip her and free her of her remaining clothes, they can both see that they are now free. Free from all restraints to fully enjoy one another. As he takes one last look at her, their eyes connect and communicate all that is happening and going to happen between them. Sonny and Alexis now know that they were meant to be. Their bodies fused as one. Comfortable and secure. They continued to ride the wave of passion until they both felt the stirrings of their collective high begin. Finally joined as one, Sonny can't help but call out to Alexis in the heat of the moment. Her eyes were closed. Too heavy and lust filled to want to open at that moment. "Alexis...Alexis. Sweetheart. Open your eyes. I need to see those beautiful brown eyes of yours, right now. You are soo beautiful. Look into my eyes and see what you do to me. See what we do to each other? It’s the most beautiful thing I've ever experienced. Share this moment with me. Please," he said as if it will kill him if she said no. “I can’t… I can’t,” she pleads, her head motioning side-to-side, tears escaping her eyes. Biting her lip as the heat continues to consume her. “Yes you can. Yes you can. I’m right here with you. I won’t let you fall. I’m not going anywhere. You’re safe with me, believe that. Look at me. There’s nothing to fear. Open your eyes sweetheart. Please.” Slowly looking up into his face, she can see the love radiating in his eyes. She knows this is where she belongs. With him, she’s at home, she just has to let go and trust. As they collectively scream out, months of pent up desire are released in one act of love. Their lungs fully stripped of air try fitfully to fill again. Their ragged breaths permeate the air while the thunder and lightning steadily raged on outside in the stormy rain. Collapsing against her soaked and sweaty body, he laid there, trying to gather his wits. When he feels his breathing return to normal he tried to move off of her, to lie beside her. But she stilled his movements. Hugging him closer to her. Thinking, “You’re not going anywhere.” Kissing
her forehead, he quietly accepted her body’s quiet demand and
remains where he is. Comfortable to stay exactly where he is. Moments later they both fall asleep. The wind continued to howl and whip beyond the doors of the house, leaving two sated lovers to sleep. Not the rest of the weary, but of the saved. April 23, 2003 The early morning sun peeked through the windows of the cottage. The storm was gone, washing away all the bad the past contained. The fire in the fireplace had cooled from its nights use, as the two lovers too exhausted to wake, remained spooned in each other's arms, ignoring the light. Enjoying a sleep well overdue, but much deserved. ”Kristina,” standing in the corner, could only look down at the sleeping couple. Smiling, triumphant in the fact that all was right with the world. Her sister was safe. Alexis was loved. She was strong enough to face the world on her own now. “She can stand on her own without me.” Sonny was there, and she knew that he would for now on and always be there. For Alexis and their daughter. Smiling at her sister she said, “I love you Alexis. I always will. I will forever be with you in your heart. You don't have to be scared now. You have someone to protect you. You've found love. That's all I ever wanted for you, to be happy. Remember to have fun,” she said with a smile. “Don't ever let your love go. Live each moment to it’s fullest. And remember to kiss little one for me." Smiling but with tears of joy in her eyes, she walked towards the door and disappeared. Gone from this world, but not forgotten. Sonny, content with being right where he was, snuggled his head further down into the crook of Alexis' neck, bringing her body flush against his chest as he pulled her closer to him. A smile gracing his lips as he half sleepily but assuredly thought to himself, "Everything's going to be alright. Everything's going to be all right..." And it was.
