Steam rising. Billowing, intoxicating.
It was almost like the curls of steam emanating from the bottom of the door were beckoning Maria to go forth and intrude.
She inched forward hesitantly, not knowing whether it was a good idea or not. Things were still uncertain between herself and Michael, and she wasn't sure if he truly knew what her reasons for leaving with the group after Graduation were. While they had shared a bed for the past two days since leaving Roswell for the final time, they had yet to begin making love again.
Through the slightly ajar door Maria could just make out his well toned form, shadowed behind the shower. She crept up closer, not realising that her footsteps were far from being quiet. Suddenly the shower curtain was shoved to the side, revealing Michael in all his naked glory.
Holy shit. Somehow he was still the most beautiful thing Maria had ever laid her eyes on. Pure unadulterated manhood. The water was still cascading down his body as his eyes stared at her with raw intensity. Oh that look, how she had craved it for so long, and still did now. The look that was reserved for her and her only. It had been a while since Michael had gazed at her that way, he seemed to have traded it in for a look of pained sadness since their break up in November.
Maria moved closer and closer until she was mere inches away from his beautiful body. She looked up into his eyes and held his gaze until her vision began to blur. And then the floodgates opened. Strong wet arms encircled her as her body was racked with uncontrollable sobs. So much sorrow, so much…. Alex’s death, leaving Amy behind and nearly losing Michael. The death of her best friend had been so hard, the thought of never seeing her mother again was intolerable but Michael… Losing him forever would kill her. That she was absolutely certain of now. Oh God, I can’t breathe!
“Shhhh….baby, please don’t cry.” Michael whispered softly into her hair. “It’s ok, we’re going to make it.”
Maria managed to get just enough control of herself to answer him. “You…you don’t understand. If, if I wasn’t here with you now, if I lost you then there’s no way that I could have gone on. I know that now, for sure and believe me, I’ve had the last few months to finally come to that conclusion.”
At that, Michael pulled back and moved his arms up to hold her face in those wonderful hands of his.
“I know.” he replied. “I know because I feel the same. I meant what I said the other day, you’re the only one for me and I’ll never ever feel that way about anyone but you.”
My Spaceboy. Maria tried to form a response but couldn’t get the words out. Instead, she smiled up at him brilliantly through her tears. Her heart was so full of love for him that it felt as though it would burst at any moment.
“And I also now understand why you walked away.” Michael continued. “It was something you needed to do, to rediscover yourself. I know it wasn’t because you no longer had feelings for me. I can always feel you, Maria, and I know that you still feel me.”
“Yes, always.” she whispered.
Maria couldn’t take it any longer, jumping up into Michael’s arms and crashing her lips against his, still fully clothed. He smiled against her mouth, only breaking away to maneuver his arms to pull her t-shirt up over her head.
The denim of Maria’s jeans was soaked but at that point in time she really didn’t give a damn, reaching up once more to mate her lips to Michael’s. Their tongues dueled in a frenzy until she slowly pulled away to kiss her way down to his chest. Her tongue swirled around his right nipple, while her hand stroked the other.
Sliding further down, she licked her way to his navel, becoming more and more aware of the prominent erection straining against her bra-clad chest. At this contact, Michael attempted to pull her back up so that their enjoyment could be mutual, but Maria wasn’t having any of it. She took his cock in into her hand and began to lightly stroke it for a few moments before touching her lips to the tip, tasting the salty pre-cum that had gathered. Michael shuddered; Maria always did know exactly how to make him crazy with her subtle actions.
She chose that moment to take him right into her mouth, taking in as much as she could given his size. He could feel every last drop of blood in his groin reach boiling point as she licked and scraped her teeth gently along the underside of his penis. Michael buried his hand in her hair, encouraging her to continue her ministrations, thrusting as gently as he could into her mouth.
“Oh yeah honey, just like that….oh shit this is so good, so good.” he mumbled as he writhed above her.
Maria could feel Michael getting close as his balls curled up higher into his body and his cock stiffened slightly even more. She sucked ever harder, working the base of his erection with her right hand, while gripping his muscled backside with her left. Let it go baby, let go. She pulled him as far as possible into her mouth as he flooded it with his release. After tasting him for a moment, she swallowed his seed down and let him go.
Michael pulled Maria up off her knees and turned off the faucet, which was now running cold. He led her out of the shower and helped her peel off the rest of her soaking clothes. After drying themselves with a towel, they moved back into the bedroom to lay on the bed.
Michael smiled tenderly. “Thank you, you were completely amazing. Even though you wouldn’t let me do anything for you.”
“I know but I just really needed to show you how much I love you. I wanted to make you feel special.” Maria replied, still feeling guilty for the one time that they had slept together after breaking up.
Michael rolled over to take her into his arms. “You do, every day just by choosing to be with me. And now it’s time for me to make you feel special.”
With that, he moved down her body and proceeded to love her, all night and every night.
THE END
