Slowly began to sink back to reality. Deep aches in her bones were causing waves of cold to over sweep her frail body. Her heart was pounding and she felt numb. A chilly draft swept over her still body. Breathing lightly, she tried to move her fingers. A huge wave of warmth swept through her as she managed to lift her fingers from the ground. As her senses stirred into action, tried to lift her heavy eyelids. Suddenly she froze, a loud noise echoed throughout the environment. The sound of a squeaky door opened slowly and a shadow fell above her. She heard a gasp as her body tensed up.
“Oh my god.”
’s voice sounded distant and far away in. A huge wave of relief ran through ’s weak body.
“, ?” replied, feeling all her nerves spring to life.
Crouching down next to her best friend, proceeded to untie from her bounds. Angry red burns tortured her wrists and a burning sensation formed as the rope was removed.
“Open your eyes ,” told her best friend as she stared solidly down at her form.
Feeling as if she was using all her strength, slowly she opened up her scared eyes. Instantly she saw ’s face studying her own as she knelt down on her knees with her slim arms by her side.
“I’m alright now , get me out of here,” croaked as she made a feeble attempt to move.
Her face screwed up in confusion as ’s piercing eyes stared at her sadly.
“What, what is it?”
panicked, feeling the hairs on the back of her neck stand on end.
“It’s no use ,” whispered quietly as a tear fell slowly down her pale cheek.
began to tremble, blood was rushing through her body like a powerful stream of water and a banging sensation was echoing throughout her mind. As she opened her mouth to speak, the taste of dry blood ran across her thirsty tongue.
“Wh - what do you mean?”
Tears filled up ’s large eyes as she saw shaking her head very slowly from side to side.
Hugging her knees up to her chest, she slowly began to rock backwards and forwards, clutching an unforeseen object in her shaking hands. A spark of strong sunlight shone in through the wooden crack in the shed. Catching its rays, the silver knife glistened brightly.
“No,” choked out. “ no.”
Raising the knife above ’s battered and bruised body. Stretching out her blood streaked arm she made a pathetic attempt to grab the knife.
“I’m sorry,” mouthed as tears poured heavily out of her sorrowful eyes.
’s teeth clamped down onto her lips, drawing fresh blood. “Why?”
“Because doesn’t love you,” replied, her eyes lighting up at the mention of him. “He loves me…”
A shattering scream escaped ’s mouth as she felt her blood seeping out of her. The last thing saw was the knife come crashing down to pierce her chest
Michael’s tired body jolted with shock as he saw his wife’s body contracting wildly against the splintered wooden floor. He stumbled over to her side as he roughly placed his hand over her mouth to silence her. He felt a pang of guilt in his chest as he saw the fear and shock in her eyes. stared at him in utter confusion.
“You were having a nightmare,” his voice showed a slight hint of guilt and concern. “Make sure it doesn’t happen again.”
His tone of voice changed instantly, it echoed through her head, cold and clear. She nodded her head to agree as she watched him remove himself from her side, and resume to sitting back down on an upturned flowerpot by the door to the shed.
“It was a nightmare,” realised, her chest heaving with shock. “Not real, just a nightmare.”
She let her gaze travel around the room she was held captive in. Confusion overpowered her mind.
“Was this real or was it a dream? Did really tell me he loved me? Am I even going out with ?”
felt a lump develop in her dry throat.
She took in all the usual objects of her shed. She lowered her eyes to observe her state. Her ankles were tied with thick rope, and she realised her hands were bound to a broken chair behind her. Suddenly she felt Michael’s stare watching her every move. As she tried to get her mind back into focus, she realised that no one would probably find her here.
“What day is it?”
called out, wincing as a cloud removed itself from the path of the sunrays.
“It’s the morning.”
His smooth voice cut through the still air like a knife through silk.
“What’s the time?”
“Time you shut your mouth or I’ll do it for you,” he threatened, turning the glimmering knife over and over in his grubby hands.
Her heart increased its speed just that little bit.
“Why Michael?”
The question hung in the air like a loose thread.
Silence surrounded them as waited for him to answer. She watched him change his position as he reached down for something beside him. The loud rustle of thin paper ran through the air.
“This, is why,” he spat angrily as he marched over towards her, his large strides easily covering the distance.
’s heart jumped into her mouth as she saw a pair of familiar eyes staring back at her.
“He was real after all!” She thought to herself as she couldn’t help but release a smile at the sight of the true man she loved.
“Look, just untie me and we can talk about this properly,” tried reasoning but seeing the anger flashing in his eyes, she knew she had already failed.
“I’m not stupid .”
“I never said you were Michael, I simply asked you to release me so we can behave like adults.”
It was amazing how calm she now felt after seeing the photograph of .
“No.”
His reply was short and sour.
“What the hell are you thinking going with a boy who is ten years younger than you?”
“Ah, so this is what it’s all about is it?” replied, feeling her strength slowly returning.
“I want to know how you think your going to explain this to ?”
’s heart stopped beating for a split second.
“,” she thought.
Glaring in Michael’s direction, her eyes turned greener with anger.
“Where’s my son?”
“Our son honey, is still in Disneyland with Karen.”
He sat down next to her and crossed his legs. Fiddling with the knife, he suddenly looked at it, and then at the smooth skin of her cheek. Straight away realised what he was thinking.
“No, Michael don’t.”
Her voice came out as no more than a mere whisper.
“One good reason why not?”
“Because what would think?”
Her question had an effect on him. His blue eyes softened at the thought of his little boy.
“Please Michael, untie me.”
He stared at for what seemed like an eternity, even though it was no more than perhaps a minute. Leaning forward, her eyes widened in fear as his face came closer to hers with the knife. She could smell the taste of stale beer on his breath, which would explain the faint sight of his blood shot eyes. She closed her eyes tightly and grimaced as she felt his rough lips brush across hers. She felt her stomach turn as he forced open her lips with his tongue. All she could think about was .
“Geddakffe,” screamed as his hand clamped down hard onto her shoulders and his tongue battled against hers.
“What did you just say?”
Michael asked pulling away, his dark hair a total mess.
“You heard.” replied, pure venom showing in her voice. “I said, get the fuck off me.”
His blue eyes stared dangerously at her, showing no signs of emotion.
“Temper, temper,” he breathed into her ear, as he moved towards the ropes that bound her.
“Just do what you wanna do Michael and get it over with.”
Her voice bounced off the thin walls to the shed. She felt his muscular body stiffen above hers as the effect of them began to hit him.
“I don’t mean to hurt you intentionally ,” he sighed as he let one rope slide off her sore wrist. “It’s just because your such an infuriating woman, you wind me up and then, well you know what happens.”
“Save the apologies,” replied as she tried to move her arms in front of her, letting the blood slowly begin to circulate back into them.
Michael remained at her side as he watched her try to soothe the pain he had caused her. She turned round to face him, her ankles were still strapped together.
“What about my feet? Do it for Michael, if not for yourself.”
She looked straight into his eyes, as she saw them sparkle with flecks of happiness at the second mention of their six-year-old son together. Shuffling along the grubby floor towards her feet, took this opportunity to scan the shed for possible weapons. She felt a burning pain tear through her as he began to slice through the thick rope with his strong knife. Falling back, her head smacked against the chair he had used. Suddenly it all flew into place. Twisting her body violently kicking Michael’s face in the process, she heard the crack of his jaw as his face met her bare foot. Her hands painfully gripped the chair as she raised it above her before sending it crashing down onto his terrified face.
felt her stomach lurch at the sight of his smashed up face. Closing her eyes she couldn’t do anything in time to stop herself from vomiting violently all over herself. The stench easily filled the shed, making her feel claustrophobic despite the sun roaring powerfully through the crack in the shed and the sound of innocent little birds chirping happily outside. Very slowly, she worked up the courage she needed to remove the knife from his limp hand. Her body was shaking uncontrollably, a vision of and was firmly imprinted in her mind. Time seemed to come to a slow standstill as she used her remaining strength to finish cutting through the rope. As it fell away, she closed her eyes and breathed a loud sigh of relief as she felt her panicked breathing returning to normal.
As she sat there in the silence of the shed listening to the sounds of her garden, her body froze with shock as she felt a hand grab her still leg. She widened her mouth as a silent scream froze on her mouth, her whole body becoming wracked with fear. Terror overtook her pale face as Michael’s hand finally fell to the floor, for the last time. Realising she could no longer stay in the shed, she half stumbled, half slid her way to the door. The room was spinning wildly and her head became light headed. Reaching for the metal door handle, she clenched it and pushed with all her might. Tears blocked her vision as she pressed down hard on it and continued to push. It didn’t move. Sobs overtook her battered body as she yelled out in tired defeat and slumped heavily against the door, tears streaming down her dusty face. It felt like something out of a horror film. Breathing deeply, she thought of what was waiting for her on the other side of the door. The room spinning faster by the second and she felt her head roll lazily around before banging against the wooden door.
As she wavered of the verge of consciousness, a very small voice echoed through the garden, travelling to the shed. Instantly recognising the voice, felt her chest tightening with every forced breath. Again the voice sailed out, sounding louder than the time before. Suddenly a loud thud banged against the shed, the sound of another human form sent everything trembling. Jumping with fright, screamed loudly before passing out, letting a wave of darkness wash over her as she surrendered to the light, yet again.
felt a pounding sensation in her head as she began to come around. Opening her eyes she felt a sense of déjà vu as a pair of cornflower eyes smiled back at her.
“ thank god,” sighed with relief, his highlighted hair looking a total mess. “I thought I’d lost ye.”
She smiled as he softly moved his hand towards her face and stroked her cheek gently. Suddenly she froze. An image of Michael staring at her with the knife entered her head. instantly noticed the change in her but didn’t remove his hand.
“Get off me ,” whispered, her eyes filling with tears. He shook his head firmly.
“Not a chance in hell , I’m , he, Michael has gone now, he’s never going to hurt ye again.”
His eyes searched hers, probing for unanswered questions.
“He, he’s gone?”
choked out as her pulse sped up.
“What do you mean gone?”
“Dead , he’s not alive any more,” responded quietly, his own eyes filling with unshed tears.
“How?”
He stared at her in confusion. Her gorgeous eyes looked at him, waiting patiently for an answer. They were suddenly interrupted by the arrival of .
“Nice to see you're back in the world of the living!” said with a grin as she bounded through the room pleased that had finally come around.
“Come here .”
Leaning forward, pulled her best friend into a comforting hug. glanced at uncertainly, and nodded her head towards the hospital room door. Understanding, he left immediately and went to phone .
“, what did I do to Michael? I can hardly remember anything.”
leaned back on the smooth mattress, realising she wasn’t connected to anything other than a drip in her right hand.
“You killed the bastard that’s what you did . You had no choice from what we guessed.”
“I, I killed him?”
The words seemed to stop in her throat.
“Not on purposely believe me. You did what anyone of us would have done. We were all so scared, has been in a right state and the media has had a field day with the story. Apparently I was part of Michael’s plot because I was jealous about you and and teamed up with him to finish you off!”
laughed as she recalled reading it in the paper. smiled at her pretty friend.
“What day is it?”
“It’s four PM, it all happened this morning. I wasn’t very worried though because I knew you wouldn’t let the prick get you down! It’s not that I don’t care or anything, you know what I’m like .”
Grinning again began to sit up.
“You're right, I tell you though, he nearly finished me off I tell ya, if it wasn’t for the picture of and I had in my head, I dread to think what would of happened.”
“You would have thought of me and know that you couldn’t let me and down by not coming to our wedding.”
’s eyes sparkled brightly, shining with happiness.
“You’re fuckin’ what?” said as her pretty pink mouth hung open.
“You heard!”
smirked, standing up and stretching her slim body towards the heavens.
“Are you fuckin’ mental?”
“No, just in love,” she replied simply, holding her left hand and waving it delicately in front of ’s face.
“You’re a twat, you should know what I went through with Michael.”
“Well congratulations , I’m really pleased for you and for once I might just keep my gob shut about what I think and be happy your happy,” teased sarcastically, her smile lighting up the whole dismal bare room.
“Yeah, yeah I get it, I just hope you know what your letting yourself in for, I don’t wanna see you get hurt.”
“I know you care , and I know it is very soon but I truly do love him. Nobody understands and all the fans hate me at the minute but me and Shay are happy and that’s all that matters to be honest.”
“You're right. I am happy for you honey, I wish you all the best I really do.”
“Thanks, so you’ll be my maid of honour then?”
“Of course!” grinned, the sparkle coming back to life in her eyes. “Now go get me man back in here ok!”
With a big smile, turned and skipped out of the room, leaving the door swaying wildly behind her. As saw the tired form of approaching along with a very small person, her heart missed a beat as she heard ’s excited voice.

It was one miserable week later. sat in the couch, staring in to mid air. Cuttings from various newspapers were spread out all around her. The black and white blended well with the state of her mind at the point in time. understood that his daddy wasn’t coming back, ever. He was led to believe that he was a shining star in the midnight sky. had realised she was never going to be able to gaze at the stars again without thinking of him. That hurt. had been great. Well as great as he could be under the circumstances, but she could tell the pressure was beginning to get to him. The funeral had been and gone. It had been arranged quickly by the actual loving members of Michael’s family that were still living, no thanks to him. was the only one who truly understood what was experiencing right at the moment. It was at times like these she realised whom her friend’s really were.
She sighed as her gaze flickered towards a photograph of and Michael together. Even from a glass frame in front of him, his piercing blue eyes glared towards her, reminding her that he was still here. She stood up slowly, walking towards the mantelpiece in which stood the object of her hatred. Placing her hands on the wooden frame, she picked up the photograph and studied it.
walked through the door and felt his heart literally jump out of his broad chest as the sound of glass shattering rang in his ears. He ran towards the living room to see in a heap on the floor. She looked a state and his heart cried out with love for her.
“, babe, come here,” he said as he walked towards the crouching woman on the floor.
“Don’t,” she gasped as her eyes shot upward in his direction.
He lifted his arm to stroke it through his hair when he saw her arms fly protectively over her head and her face shot towards the ground.
“, I’m not going to touch ye,” cried as he dived towards the floor, his arms outreached to embrace her.
“Leave me alone ,” she whispered as her eyes clouded over with a blank expression.
“No , you’re not pushing me away any more. I love you ok? I’m not Michael.”
She bit down on her lip as her trembling subsided.
“You promised me you wouldn’t let him come near me ever again, you promised me .”
“I didn’t know , believe if I had have known, I would have done everything possible to stop what he did to ye.”
His ice eyes shone with unshed tears.
“I love ye , and I hate seeing ye like this. What he has done to you. Where is the strong, carefree woman that I fell in love with hey?” His deep voice asked gently.
She unfolded her long legs as she wiped away the tears from her face.
“He destroyed her , I can’t carry on like this. This house, the memories, every where I look I get reminders of him, what he did to me, how small he made me feel, how useless, how unloved I felt. But most of all, how unworthy I felt. He made me feel as if my life wasn’t worth anything to anyone.”
closed his eyes in pain upon hearing her words. He pulled her into his embrace and stroked her matted hair.
“You're gonna get through this baby, I promise ye, I’m gonna be with ye every step of the way.”
She clung to him as if her life depended on him. Gradually her sobs subsided into the occasional sniffle.
“Ye alright now hun? We’ve got a busy day ahead of us,” stated as he brushed a strand of hair out of her face.
“Why?” She questioned, her lips remaining slightly parted.
“We’ve gotta pack.”
The following day, sighed as he dumped the last of the brown boxes in the rented apartment he had for the three of them. He collapsed on the newly acquired sofa. Being this famous certainly did have its positive side. Money he had stashed away in a huge bank account certainly came in handy for times like these. The private apartment was perfect. Tucked neatly away from any interfering people, would have all the time in the world she needed to recover, and could still attend the same school and not lose any of his friends. He jumped slightly as his mobile began to vibrate firmly in his jean pocket. Picking it up, he took a shallow breath before answering the call.
“Hey its .”
“How you doin’ ?” said, releasing his breath as he stretched his long legs out in front of him.
“Not so bad ya know, still getting hassle from everyone about the wedding but ya know.”
“Argh, don’t worry about it, just jealousy. ’s broken millions of hearts out there!”
chuckled as he heard his best mate shouting something in the background.
“I was just calling to see if you were alright. mentioned this was having quite an affect on you?”
“Nah I’m fine. The most important thing is that and are. I think this move will work out for the best .”
The rolled her eyes at the nickname had insisted on giving her.
“You know I hate being called that,” she said, her tone not totally joking.
“There’s a lot of things we hate in life ,” replied as he could practically picture her rolling her eyes down the phone.
“I just wanna make sure your ok, trust me I know what it’s like. You can count on me for anything if you feel she gets too much. I was there with her the other times, I know what a handful she can be with all the mood swings and emotions she’s experiencing.”
“I’ll be fine ok? Thanks for checking I appreciate it. I think that the sooner all of this shit is forgotten though, the better to be honest.”
“Alright, don’t say I don’t care though! Take care, by the way, the new apartment, brilliant idea . Just let her regain your trust, I know ye haven’t done anything personally but it’s the way it effects her. Take it slowly with her, that’s all I’m saying.”
“I read ye loud and clear , have a good weekend.”
He hung up and stared at the bare wall in front of him. Strong winter light poured through the huge glass window, creating a halo effect in the room. Suddenly the sound of ’s excited childish babble rang through the hall. Standing up he walked towards the door and looked out of the spying hole. ’s tanned face beamed up at him, his brown eyes sparkling madly causing to break into a grin. Opening the door, he swooped him into his strong arms.
“How you doin’ little dude?” asked as he saw his girlfriend coming into sight.
“, where do babies come from? Are you and Mommy going to have one?”
His innocent tanned face waited expectantly for an answer.
“You really need a girlfriend,” joked as ’s eyes smiled at him as he closed the door and they began to unpack the shopping
As August drew to an end and September began, felt herself slowly returning to normal. Apart from one thing, the fact she couldn’t bare touching her or any male for that matter. Their new home was now properly furnished and oozed warmth and comfort. As she hadn’t left the apartment in over a week since they had first moved in, there hadn’t been anything else to do other than decorate it. was getting excited bout the fact he was due to start back at school in less than five days. smiled to herself as she realised the spare time it would give her. Work had given her two months off to get over the incident. As usual was out with ’s brother.
Looking around, she admired the gleaming furniture. A large black leather couch occupied the far wall of the living room. A small but elegant mantelpiece was situated opposite it, a smart coffee table in the centre with a neat vase resting on the pine. The walls had been painted a gentle blue colour, with a white borderline. Sun streamed in through the floor to ceiling wall, giving a gorgeous view of Sligo. Sighing gazed at her reflection in the mirror opposite her. Her blond roots were beginning to show and no traces of make up were on her tired face. Trackie bottoms and an old t shirt hung loosely off her body, hiding the weight she had shed due to the fact she had gone on a crash diet. was over in the United Kingdom somewhere doing come promotion for their new single. This weekend he was in London making TV appearances with the rest of the band. knew this was affecting him big time. She also knew it wasn’t fair but she had no where else to go at the moment. She was constantly biting his head off for no reasons and was hating herself inside because she knew it wasn’t any of his fault but only hers due to the insecurity Michael had caused. They hadn’t made love in weeks, the thought of a man touching her repulsed her. Tears brimmed her long eyelashes as she felt herself sinking onto the black couch, picking up her mobile phone in the process. Dialling her best friend’s number, she sniffled and wiped her messy hair out of her face.
“,” mumbled as the cheery voice of her friend answered.
“, I was about to call you. You better get dressed now because I’m taking you out and I’m not taking no for an answer. You’ve got half an hour maximum and I’m gonna be round to pick you up. See ya soon.”
As hung up frowned as she threw the mobile down onto the white carpet, cursing loudly in her breath. Going out with presumably to look for wedding dresses, like she had been doing for the past two weeks, was not something she wanted to do. remained seated for the next half an hour. Not moving a muscle, just gazing off into an absent daydream. Memories of the first time she met rushed through her confused head. Inside she was longing for his touch. Those sweet lips of his to caress hers, her body tingled as she reminisced his loving touch all over her body. The ringing of the doorbell interrupted her thoughts.
“Just as I thought,” sighed as she marched straight through into ’s living room after looking her up and down.
“I don’t want to go anywhere ,” told her as she stood defiantly in front of her, her hands fixed securely on her hips.
“Tough shit chick you are, so you might aswell except it but if you think I’m going out with you in public looking like that than you’ve got another thing coming.”
’s eyes were flashing brightly, her mouth fixed in a firm line.
“Into the shower now , if you don’t move now I’ll drag you in there myself.”
“Fuck off would ya,” spat back, angry at her so-called friend’s harshness.
“Well try it and see.”
flung her tight denim jacket off onto the couch and she marched up to looking her square in her eyes.
“Look , your nearly thirty four now, yes you’ve been through a really bad experience but you’ve got to get over it and carry on with your life. Everyone has been tip toeing around you for the past month and to be honest it’s beginning to drive me crazy. Packs feeling sorry for yourself and letting Michael continue to destroy your life. is an absolute state. told me that he said you won't even let him sleep in the same room as you. Just what the hell do you think he’s going to do to you? isn’t Michael and never will be. I think your taking the piss to be honest because he loves you , so much, and this is how your repaying him. God knows how he has put up with all the hassle he’s been having off everyone just lately. You need to get your act together or move out and leave to get on with his life because I hate seeing him like this as do the other lads.”
By now, ’s bright eyes were flashing angrily and her cheeks were flushed a bright red. herself felt a stirring of anger begin to boil in her stomach.
“How dare you speak to me like that?”
spat out, her eyes sparkling madly with shock as told her the realties of life.
“Because I know you , and this isn’t you.”
“You’ve got no fucking right waltzing into my home,”
“Correction , ’s home.”
“No , OUR home, he got this for me.”
“And why did he do that then?” asked, a secret feeling of happiness working its way through her body.
Finally the old was coming back.
“Because he loves me,” cried as tears filled her eyes. “ loves me and wants to look after me, THAT’S why . You haven’t got a clue what I’ve been through lately.”
“Oh no course I don’t,” mocked heartily. “I’ve only been through this with you for the past three years ever since you married the twat.”
“It’s not my fault you know,” screamed as she struggled to breathe.
“I never said it was, but whose fault is it that you’re like this? Pushing away the one man who truly does love you? THAT’S your fault Wigg, and you bloody know it aswell.”
“Well I’m not the slag who shagged a famous bloke in a pantry and is just marrying him for his money,” spat nastily her hand flying to her mouth as she realised what she suddenly said.
“You know you don’t mean that ,” replied calmly as hurt glistened in her eyes.
“I am so sorry ,” whispered as tears trailed down her face. “I didn’t mean it, I’m so fucked up.”
“Ya fool. Come here .”
sighed as she pulled into her slender arms.
Stroking her hair she let release everything she had been keeping inside since the vicious attack.
“I’m glad to se the old is back,” joked as pulled away and stared into her friend’s eyes. “ always has the best ideas.”
“What do you mean?” sniffed as she wiped away her tears with the back of her hand.
“Put it this way darlin’, I knew it wouldn’t take much to wind you up.”
managed a watery smile as she stepped back and straightened herself up.
“, help me fix things.”
“I already am. You better get in that shower because your due for a hair cut at one o clock, followed by a huge shopping spree courtesy of my credit card!” she grinned as she sank into the black leather seat. “Oh god,” gasped as she fell onto the soft leather.
“What?” questioned.
“If ever you and are out of the apartment for the night, would you mind me and coming round to use this couch? It’s well nice,” replied as a naughty glint flitted across her face.
“Your bloody sick, you are!” laughed as she walked towards the bathroom.
glanced round his empty apartment nervously.
“, I really ain’t sure about this you know,” he admitted as he turned to see his fellow band member walking in through the kitchen.
“Look, obviously got her out of apartment which means only one thing. My babe got through to her!”
’s eyes glazed over as a mental image of his new acquired fiancée shot through his loved up mind.
“The place looks wicked, she’s gonna die when she see’s it mate.”
“I still dunno, what if she flips out or something?” asked his best mate as uncertainty shot through his baby eyes.
“Look your crazy about her and she knows it, it’s going to be fine. Anyway I’m gonna head off, I’m meeting later on.”
“Alright, I’ll text you later and let you know whats happening.”
“That’s if you ain’t too busy!”
“Yeah, yeah,” replied as he rolled his eyes. “Have fun whatever you two do tonight.”
“Guaranteed .”
’s face broke into in a cheeky grin as he felt his mobile phone begin to vibrate in his pocket.
“One min,” mouthed as he answered the call.
looked into the huge mirror opposite as he studied what he was wearing. His fresh blond highlights definetly did him a favour, making his eyes look er than ever.
“,” began nervously as he shuffled from one foot to the other.
Instantly a feeling of dread formed in his flat stomach.
“What?”
“You’ve got ten minutes and then she’ll be here,” smiled as he slid his phone back into its usual place.
“Oh shit, go now . You can’t be here when she turns up it will ruin everything!”
panicked as nerves got the better of him.
“I’m going, I’m going,” ’s smooth Irish voice laughed. “It’ll be alright mate, I promise ya. My girl wouldn’t let ye down.”
attempted to smile as he strode across to his recently purchased hi fi system. Nodding at him, he grinned as he watched depart.
walked happily along the narrow corridor leading to her new home. She hadn’t felt or looked this good in ages. Today had been brilliant and spending quality best friend time was something she definetly had needed. She observed her image in a small hand pocket. The blond hair was gone and was now a dark auburn colour, making her eyes look and mysterious. The new clothes that her and had spent hours finding looked brilliant on her. Dressed in a sophisticated knee length black skirt, with a sexy white gypsy top, she oozed sexiness as she continued to walk along the corridor.
As she approached the door, preparing herself for a night alone as was staying the night at his new “uncle’s” house, she sighed deeply, wishing could see the new her. Not once today had she thought about Michael. All of her concentration had been centred on and how she was going to make it up to him.
“That’s weird,” thought as she saw the front door slightly open.
Darkness escaped from the small wedge, instantly making her feel slightly uneasy. As she pushed open the door, she slowly walked in.
“Oh my god,” she gasped as her hands flew to her dainty mouth.
The whole living room was drowned in spotlights, creating a romantic atmosphere. ’s new hi fi gently played music and felt her pulse double in speed as she recognised the tall muscular frame of her boyfriend.
“,” she whispered as she walked into the living, feeling tears well up in her eyes.
’s heartbeat soared as he saw the new look of his girlfriend. He let his sturdy gaze travel from head to toe as a huge smile formed on his full lips.
“Ye look absolutely breath taking ,” said as he began to travel towards her.
His fingers reached up to run themselves through the new colour of her hair. It was so soft on his hands, so smooth. He gazed down at the stunning woman in front of him, breathing in the new addictive scent of her perfume. Ever so slowly, a shy smile formed on her alluring lips. found herself drowning in the ness of his eyes. Dressed in smart black trousers, with a deep blue shirt, the old feeling of arousal formed in her stomach. The coffee table had been transformed into a table for two as a single red rose lay gently in the vase.
“, this is beautiful,” breathed as he brushed past her to close the door.
“Well I’ve got one thing to say to you first, listen.”
She watched his every move as he walked back into the room and towards the hi fi system. The tight trousers hugged his legs tightly, showing the muscular lengths of them. His new shirt was half undone, letting her have a peak of the mass of dark curly chest hair that she had so many times ran her slender fingers through. His gorgeous masculine smell, the same as usual filled her senses as it mingled with the air. Her breathing increased as he pressed play and motioned her over to him. Opening his arms, bit down nervously on her lip before sliding her own arms up and around his neck, clasping her fingers tightly together as he pulled her body up against his, closely and tightly.
“Listen to the words,” he whispered as his lips brushed her ear lobe, instantly setting off fireworks in his hot body.

“We're gonna take things back to the way things used to be,
when a love song - was a love song.”

She gazed up into his eyes, feeling herself getting lost in the sincerity shining through them. His large hands placed themselves snugly around her waist as he tried to control his sudden urge to pick her up and carry her straight to their bedroom.
“No,” he thought.
He had to take this very slowly, do it the right way, and let him regain her utmost trust.

“You have got to have the bluest eyes I've ever seen,
And when I wake from dreamin,
I am screamin out your name,
Yes, I must confess,
You simply are the best,
And there's no point denyin,
When I'm lyin by your side,”

felt sad tears filling her eyes as she listened to the words of the song had especially played. She could feel the pounding of her heart through the translucent top as she took a shaky deep breath. His arms gently squeezed her as he leant his head down onto her shoulder, inhaling her alluring perfume.

“It's more than just a crush,
Every time we touch,
Cause, baby, you know you make this feel brand new,
Like there's been no one else but you,
For the first time, I feel,
This could be the last time, I'm real,
Fall, in love,”

“I love you ,” revealed as he pulled back and gazed tenderly into her glistening eyes.
She swallowed as the first tear fell soon to be followed by another as she realised just how much she loved him aswell.
“I love you too .”

“For a thousand years,
I hope to stay right here,
Wrapped up all around you,
So that I found you and I feel,
You make me feel so pure,
Like you're some kind of cure,
Baby, you're my healer,
You heart stealer of a man,”

Ever so slowly he began to trail his fingers along the gentle curve of her back, tingles formed where ever his fingers touched and a warm powerful surge of desire for the man in front of her ripped through her body. She smiled gently at him as his fingers played with the ends of her cut hair. He lifted a hand and gently began to slide it over her face, loving the silky feel of her smooth skin on his.

“It's more than just a crush,
Every time we touch,
Cause, baby, you know you make this feel brand new,
Like there's been no one else but you,
For the first time, I feel,
This could be the last time, I'm real,
Fall in, in love,”

raised onto her tiptoes pressing her body against his as she found her stare being drawn to his lips. Lips that made her feel things she never thought was possible, lips that had said the most loving things she thought she wasn’t worth hearing, lips that made her feel like the most luckiest woman in the world. He tightened his grip as his Irish blood fled through his body, a small stirring in his stomach formed as he felt himself begin to grow. He leant forward and rested his head lightly on top of hers, wanting her to feel how much he loved her. He smiled to himself as he let himself drown in the loving grasp she had him in.

“Hold me, baby cause you know me,
With every single touch,
It's more than just a crush,
Reach me, only you can see me,
And what I crave so much,
It's more than just a crush,”

sighed as she rested her head on broad chest, feeling his heart beating softly through the thin material of his open shirt. His body yearned for her touch, and she felt his growing erection gently pressing against her throbbing centre as they continued to move gently in time with the music.
“You know , we’ve never danced together before,” said gently as notes of the song he had selected for her played in the air.
“There’s a first time for everything,” she replied as she snuggled her head against him losing herself in the soft notes of the song.

“It's more than just a crush,
Every time we touch,
Cause baby, you know you make this feel brand new,
Like there's been no one else but you,
For the first time, I feel,
This could be the last time I'm real,
Fall in, in love, for a thousand years...”

As the music finished stiffened, letting go of his girlfriend. He still couldn’t believe how gorgeous she looked. Her eyes had their naturally bright sparkle back, and her lips were no longer strained, but relaxed in a happy smile.
“I didn’t burn the chinese this time,” teased as he led her to the centre of their living room.
“It smell’s lovely,” smiled as he pulled out a chair motioning her to sit down.
“Yeah but afters are gonna be the best,” replied as he moved around to the other side of the table, clearly slightly uncomfortable with the position his body had put him in.
Lowering her eyes towards his crotch, felt his breathing increase as he followed her gaze.
“I couldn’t agree more!” replied with a teasing glint showing in her pretty eyes.
Half an hour later, pushed her plate gently away before taking a slow sip of the expensive champagne had purchased.
“Thanks , I mean it.”
felt a small blush begin to rise on her face.
What was wrong with her? She felt nervous as her sparkling eyes travelled slowly up and down ’s body. Normally her wild and carefree side shone through, but tonight she could tell was going to be slightly different. placed his unfinished glass on the small table as he stood up, revealing his tall frame. His baby eyes were a shade darker than usual, clearly indicating to the change in his lean body. felt his breathing tighten as he neared the beautiful woman on front of him. He felt his eyes being drawn to the tempting sight of her lips, he was longing to brush them with his own and feel the warmth she had always provided him. Her intoxicating scent filled all of his demanding senses. Not perfume, but her own feminine scent that was unique to her, and her alone.
stood up as he came close to her, centimetres apart. She found her pulse beginning to speed up with nerves as ’s gentle hand glided along the seductive curve of her jaw line, running along the smooth skin leading up to her sensitive ear lobe. As his fingers grazed her skin, she shuddered under his electrifying caress. All around them, the spotlights continued to dot themselves here and there around the apartment. Music pounded softly out of the speakers as carefully picked up his girlfriend’s hand. Staring into her mesmerising eyes that showed him so much, he placed the softest of kisses of her fingertip. So light actually had to think if it had really occurred or not. Her chest had tightened and his dark chest hair was peaking out from his shirt, daring her to place her slender fingers on it and feel its masculine texture. As their gazes locked, his eyes asked her one question. A shy smile formed on the playful shape of her lips, causing his gorgeous face to light up in his heart stopping grin.
“Don’t tell me your nervous babe?”
’s face broke into a teasing grin as he wrapped his arms around her slim waist, loving the sensual feeling of her body against his.
“Well it has been a while,” admitted a small blush took over her smooth cheeks.
“Well that better change then hadn’t it,” murmured as he leant his head down towards her.
As his lips gently brushed hers, a surge of desire ripped through her body as she stretched up and breathed deeply, inhaling his gorgeous aftershave, making her feel delirious. felt his tongue sliding across her top lip, praying for more access. She opened her mouth gladly as his hot tongue briefly caressed hers, sending a shock wave of pleasure to sweep through both of their bodies. gasped as she felt his strong arms suddenly pick her up into his loving grasp. He pulled away and smiled lovingly into the pools that were her stunning eyes. He carried her to their bedroom, pausing to kick shut the white door. bit down on her lip as she saw scattered red rose petals all over their bed. Candles of incense were spread randomly around their red and gold decorated bedroom. He carefully placed her down on the floor near the bed, feeling a ripple of want travel through his aroused body. As she licked her lips, couldn’t wait any longer. He placed his hands hungrily on her hips and pulled her up to him, his powerful mouth demanding everything she had to offer him. His fingers brushed her soft skin driving her crazy with their burning sensation.
Her fingers slid along his broad shoulder, teasingly along the outline of his unbuttoned shirt, longing to feel his chest. As her fingers entwined with his hair, stifled a moan as he felt his body soar into bliss as her fingers rubbed themselves across his covered nipples. His fingers struggled to keep control of their speed as his hand glided up and down her smooth body, savouring every gentle curve her body offered. His breathing became more ragged as her fingers entered the inside of his blue shirt, splaying themselves along his smooth skin. Electrical bolts shot through his body as he pulled her closer towards him, pressing his growing member firmly against her tingling centre. The gorgeous smell of the candles mixed with his intoxicating scent was sending dizzy with passion. Her lips widened, as his mouth became more demanding, his hands slowly working off her buttoned shirt.
As it fell loosely to the floor, sighed inside to himself. He had wanted this for so long, finally he had managed to get through to her. This was the start of their new beginning, and he wanted it to be one she wouldn’t ever forget. Forcing her legs wider apart, he slid his firm trouser clad leg in between hers, raising her body slightly to rest itself on his knee. felt his nipples turn as hard as bullets as her teasing fingers gently caressed them, the heat from his body sending her light headed with desire. Her heart was pounding furiously and she hurried to undo the few remaining buttons on his shirt. As she pulled away, ’s wet lips remained slightly parted, his chest heaving for breath. Ever so slowly she walked around him, letting her hand trail across his shoulders whilest he remained totally still, feeling his boxers becoming increasingly tighter as each fast second passed. Her hand trailed round the waistband to his jeans, letting it drift over his bulging erection. Instantly gasped at her light teasing touch, his eyes turned even darker as passion clouded over them. The blue shirt slowly floated to the floor as light as silk as shrugged off his shoes and socks. watched in fascination as she saw each of his muscles rippling with his every movement. Her eyes locked on the small trail of abdomen hair that led downwards to the one place that was dying for release.
Sitting down on the bed, kneeled down in front of her and placed her foot gently on his knee, beginning to undo the thin black strap of her stiletto. He felt her desirable stare on every part of his hot body as he finally slid the second shoe off. His fingers began to massage her foot, a deep throbbing began in her centre as his fingers eased all of the tension out of them. She felt weak under his touch, as he had wove a magic spell over her that would condemn her to do anything he wished. ’s hands slowly began to work their way up her long leg, savouring everything about the beauty of the woman in front of him. His fingers didn’t miss a stop and felt herself trying to contain the moan of pleasure she badly wanted to release. Her chest was becoming heavier with every breath, causing ’s eyes to be drawn to their tempting movement as they rose and fell continuously.
As he neared the inside of her thigh, felt a small explosion of want run through her. Before she could stop herself she grabbed him and bought his mouth crashing hungrily down onto hers, losing her self in the strong caresses of his hot tongue on hers. His fingers worked their way round to the back of her skirt, instantly undoing the zip and sliding it down the long lengths of her slim legs. He pulled away and stared at the woman beneath him. Wearing now a sexy diamante bra and thong, he felt his raging hard on begging to be released and plunged into the one place he loved the most. Gently he eased her backwards onto the bed, smiling at the darkness of her eyes that almost looked brown. Her swollen lips were slightly parted, her breathing was short and fast and he hadn’t even touched her anywhere intimately yet. He stood up and undid the buckle to his expensive trousers, letting them fall to the carpeted floor, revealing his large throbbing erection. The tip just peaked out the top of his tight black boxers, ’s exploring eyes instantly remained fixed on it as she felt her tongue slowly lick her own lips. stifled a groan as he followed his girlfriends penetrating gaze towards the crotch of his boxers.
“, if you stare at me like that for much longer there’s no way I’m gonna be able to last.”
The Irish words came out in a hurried breath as he neared the bed, determined to make feel like she had never before. Sliding onto the bed, at the tip of her painted toenails, stared at him with open eyes as she waited for him to make some sort of connection. His sweet breath tickled her feet as he began to spoke. She giggled slightly as his cheeky face gazed up, a naughty sparkle in his piercing eyes.
“Now baby,” breathed lightly as he leant forward and placed a soft kiss on her foot.
gasped at the tender kiss he had placed on her. She hadn’t realised how sensitive her feet were.
“We’re gonna take this nice and slow.”
His voice had turned a tone deeper, sexier than ever. She felt her heart pounding as she lay back on the bed, submissive to the man in front of her. Minutes seemed to fly by as his lips and fingers explored the entire lengths of her legs. As his mouth trailed along the inside of her throbbing thighs, a powerful tingling sensation erupted in the centre of her.
“,” she moaned as his fingers began to toy with the curly hairs.
“Nice and slow, I already told you that , now be quiet.”
Her whole body went into overdrive at the commanding tone of his strong soulful voice. Softly he blew over her throbbing centre, his eyes feasting on the sight in front of him. Her back arched as his hands slid her wet thong down and flung it to the other side of their dark bedroom. With one finger, he gently trailed it over her folds. Her body melted under his light brushes. His thumb circled her sensitive clitoris that was begging to be touched. Leaning forward his tongue flicked over it. Her hips thrashed upwards as his hand rubbed over, enjoying the silky hot texture of her. She flung her arms onto the quilt as perspiration formed on her smooth forehead. As he slipped two fingers easily inside of her, she tightened her legs as rested in between them, his hot erection pressing down onto the bed.
“, let me touch you.”
begged as her hands reached forward and tenderly stroked the short layers of his hair.
“I said not one word. If your not going to be a good girl I’m stopping right now.”
Just to emphasise the true meaning of his words, he released his hand and flicked his glance up towards her. The sight of her sent his heart into overtime. Layers of her auburn hair splayed out on the crisp white pillow, her eyes smothered with desire, and love. The new dominant side of was having more of an affect than she realised as she clamped her mouth straight shut, her fists slightly clenched as his hands played with her dark curly hair, teasing her more as each second passed. It was taking all of her willpower not to grab him and shove him straight into her. But she knew this was what wanted, so she sighed deeply as his tongue licked its teasing way upward to her throbbing centre. His fingers circled her burning clitoris endlessly as his tongue slid along her entrance, losing itself in her sweet scent. As soon as he had a taste, found himself not being able to resist her addictive flavour and instantly plunged his tongue in as his thumb pressed deeply down on her swollen clitoris, causing ’s hot body to explode under his sensuous touch. As each thrust of his tongue deepened, felt her stomach stirring, the warm familiar feeling she always experienced at the signs of an approaching orgasm. His tongue and fingers switched places and heard a far away voice crying out, not recognising its throaty groans as her own. She was flying high, oblivious to all of her surroundings except the irresistible touch of the man she loved. Her body felt light as she travelled to the height of her orgasm. ’s mouth was still working, his fingers becoming slippery under her.
pulled away and rested his head gently in his large hands, his concentration totally centred on the beautiful woman laying in front of him. He tried to ignore the intense throbbing of his hard on as her bra covered breasts rose and fell heavily. One thin strap had fallen off her shoulder, and a tempting nipple was showing, begging to take it. As ’s breathing gradually returned to normal and she once again opened her eyes, she found herself staring straight into the dark depths of his. She opened her mouth to say something but was instantly quietened as he expertly slid his tongue into her hungry mouth, exploring all areas all over again. His throbbing erection pressed against her stomach as she felt his pre cum spilling out. Her hands ran lightly across his broad shoulders and down his back, examining every contour of his defined body. His nose nudged hers playfully as he breathed her in deeply, her musky smell making him grow even harder. felt her hands sliding continuously up and down his back, each time go slightly lower than the time before until the finally reached the waistband of his boxers that were shielding him.
A rush of cold air blew around his hot erection as slid from underneath him pushing him down to lie flat on his stomach. Her hands continued to work his soaked boxers down his legs. As she pulled them over his feet, she positioned herself at the sole of them. Her hands rubbed his muscular legs sensually as she leant forward and let him feel her breasts lightly brush his feet. A muffled groan escaped into the pillow as his arms wrapped around his head, trying to control himself. She widened his legs with a wicked smile on her face, which he couldn’t see.
“Now baby,” breathed in the same tone as he had used on her. “We’re gonna take this nice and slow.”
She resisted laughing as mumbled some unknown words into the pillow. Leaning forward she brushed her lips along the rough hairs on his legs, enjoying their firm texture against the smooth skin of her chin. Her fingers glided mercilessly between his thighs, her eyes fixed on her target. He felt his body arch as suddenly stretched up and lay on top of him, her hands stroking the chopped layers of his damp hair, trailing softly along the curve of his neck, making him squirm in a ticklish manner. The touch of her breasts rested on his back, her nipples were hard, and realised if it wasn’t for the fact he couldn’t move, he would have taken them one at a time each in his mouth. He could feel the heat pouring from her entrance against his hips. Her lips grazed his skin hungrily as she began to kiss and lick her way down. Her hand slid up to his mouth trailing around the contours of his swollen lips. Opening his mouth, felt her finger become enveloped in his hot touch. Her leg had slipped in between his, pushing them further apart. One hand sneakily made it’s way to the centre of him, very lightly brushing over his heavy balls. His body jumped at her sudden touch, his erection becoming all tingly as he waited for more. She kissed down the smooth curve of his spine, letting her lips massage each tiny muscle as she slid down onto her side urging to let her beneath him.
All of his aroused body was burning from her magnetic touch. As she slid underneath him he found his large eyes locking with hers as he softly blew a strand of her auburn hair out her way. Her hands cupped his bum as she urged him slightly up her body, not letting the tip of him anywhere near her, although she was aching for his touch. She pushed her chest up skin to skin against his as she opened her mouth to let him seek all the access he was after. Bringing her right hand up, she pushed her index and middle finger into his mouth, loving the wet sensation of his tongue against hers and her fingers. As she continued to kiss him her hand fell lower and lower towards his opening. Every so gently she let the dampness from her hand rub over him, making him slippery. was lost in his own little world, as his chest panted against hers and his kisses became hungrier by the second. His mouth widening with every caress as he fought to stop himself from thrashing straight down into her and letting himself sink into her silky hidden depth.
stiffened as a small surge of pain ripped through him.
“Relax,” whispered tenderly as her lips brushed his gently.
As his grew accustomed to the new experience, the pain soon disappeared. Every so gently at first, pulled her finger out slightly before positioning upwards in order to find his prostate. All breath rushed out of him as she hit it perfectly. His whole body turned numb as his breathing sped up immensely. He closed his eyes as a sensational throbbing overtook his entire body, making him feel weak.
“,” he panted. “Stop.”
She silenced him with a gentle kiss as she increased the speed of her movement, loving the reaction she was getting from him. Her hand slid in between their damp bodies and began to circle his dripping tip as ’s face screwed up and he groaned loudly as a deep explosion inside of her erupted. He slumped heavily against as he tried to regain his breathing. That had been the most amazing experience of his life.
“I’m not done with you yet baby,” she murmured huskily as she rolled herself from under his large grasp.
All he could offer was a moan in reply. He turned over onto his back, his erection resting just below his stomach button as the sensational feelings she had just caused him began to fade. Her hand gripped his long hard length confidently as she began to stroke him in light movements, from base to tip. ’s body heaved at her light caresses, he found himself begging to increase her speed. She simply chose to ignore his requests, continuing in the manner she wanted. A light sheen of perspiration shone lightly on his forehead as his hips buckled constantly.
Moving her head down, she circled pink tip with her tongue, tasting him and losing herself in the sweetness of him. It was him, and him alone. No one else had ever reacted in the way he had to her, she could feel how wet she was. It was taking all of her stamina not to let herself lower down onto him, letting him fill her up all the way. Her gaze flickered upwards to look at him. His eyebrows were furrowed together tightly, his lips fixed together tightly as his hair lay matted on his forehead. The rough curls on his chest shimmered against the light of the candles and she realised she couldn’t wait any longer. After placing one last lick along his erection, she moved along the bed next to him. He opened his strong arms and positioned himself above her, the tip of him slid teasingly along her soaking folds. She was feeling hot and flustered, dizzy with desire and love. Her hands clutched his shoulders as he pressed his hips downwards, gradually sinking in. She moaned in bliss as she felt him pushing further down inside her. ’s lips grazed hers delicately as his weight rested on his muscular arms. Her legs entwined with his as they finally became one again, after so long. As he finally sank his full length in her, felt tears welling up in her eyes as he gazed down tenderly at her. His bright eyes told her everything and more she needed to know. His finger brushed a tear away as he mouthed the three words he never grew tired of telling her, time after time.
“I love you too , so much.” whispered as tears spilled down her cheeks.
“Shhh,” he whispered gently as he kissed each salty tear away.
Very slowly he began to move slowly inside of her, wanting to make it last as long as possible. closed her eyes as rested his head against his shoulder, each thrust becoming longer and harder than the one before. She met him half way in slow movement as both of them began to feel the huge build up. Her mind was clouded with love as her fingers played with the back of his neck, ’s heart was banging furiously against his chest as each movement took them higher than the last. As both of them soared to a new height of passion, remained motionless as she stared hypnotised by the beauty of ’s eyes gazing strongly back at her. Images of their past few months together shot through her head. She blinked slowly as he kissed her gently, his tongue caressing hers with the most tender stroke he could achieve. As his gorgeous face broke into that famous cute smile of his, found herself grinning back as he remained inside of her, trying to keep the tight feeling of her around him for as long as possible. All they had now was the future to forward to, the past too never look back on.

The End
