The Surrogate
It felt good talking to his mother, and she took the news about Cristy well. There was no doubt in his mind that the two would get along. The food had arrived and they sat down to eat, then later they went and sat outside.
"I think we should start coming up with some names for our son," he said while he had his arm around her.
"Have you got any in mind?"
"A couple, Jacob or maybe Wesley. What are your thoughts on those names?"
"I'm not sure, they are good names. Let's think of more before we decide. Oh, I just felt him kicking a little." She grabbed his hand and placed it over her stomach. "Do you feel that?"
He smiled. "Yes, I do feel some movement. It's not very strong yet, but pretty soon he will be kicking up a storm." He looked into her eyes. "I thank God every day for sending you into my life and in a way, I should thank Joyce."
"What do you have to thank her for?"
"Because she was the one that found you and said we should hire you."
"Yes, I see your point and I also have her to thank, but I won't. I can't stand her and she'll only try and make me feel bad."
"Let's not talk about Joyce, we have much better things to do."
"Like what?"
"Like this," he said, putting his hand behind her neck he pulled her close and kissed her. He slowly lowered her down onto her back on the lounge chair they were on and laid on top of her, he was careful not to put all of his weight on her. "I've been thinking that since Joyce is accusing me of adultery why shouldn't we go ahead and make love?"
"Cole, you know I want you too. It's just that when you go to your divorce proceedings and they ask you if we've slept together I don't want you to make things worse for you. This way you can say with a clear conscience that we haven't been physical."
"I don't know how much longer I can wait."
She reached up and stroked his cheek. "I know it's not easy, but you can do this. I'm sure it won't be much longer."
He got off of her and stood up. "Knowing Joyce she will keep this thing going just out of spite. We can't let her ruin our life this way. I want you and I know you want me. I don't want to wait another night, it's time we did what we want."
She also stood up, shaking her head. "No, I won't let you give her any more ammunition than she already has."
That night as he got ready for bed after taking a shower he only had a towel around his waist. He watched her as she brushed her hair and after placing it down on the table and as she was walking to the bed he grabbed a hold of the back of her neck and pulled her back towards him and turned her around. He didn't give her a chance to speak as his lips came down hard on hers.
There was something so sexy about the way he grabbed the back of her neck and pulled her into him, he had lit the flames inside her and she knew right then that there was no turning back. She wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him back with as much passion as she could possibly muster. She could feel his hands sliding the straps of her nightgown down past her shoulders as it piled around her feet. She used her fingers to tear the towel he was wearing from his body.

With his arms still around her and his lips on hers, he slowly walked her backwards toward the bed. Very gently he lowered her down onto the bed, sliding her panties down her legs. His member was hard and throbbing, he couldn't wait to have it inside her. He managed to tear his lips from hers and looked down at her as he hovered over top of her. "If you want me to stop I will, but I'm really hoping you won't."
It felt as if her insides were on fire and her core was throbbing and she knew that she was wet down there. If what they were about to do now was wrong then she didn't want to be right. "I can't wait any longer for you, I don't want you to stop. I want you so much, just be gentle."
Even though he was a man who had been starved for sex for so long he took his time, giving her pleasure before he took his. He ran his hand down her body in between her thighs as he kissed her lips down to her neck. He moved a couple of fingers inside her and when he felt how wet she was he became more aroused than he had ever been. He continued to kiss down to her breasts, his tongue circling around her nipple and moving to the other one. Taking one in his mouth he began sucking, his tongue tickling the tip of her erect nipple.
He could feel her squirming and heard the moans that were escaping from her lips as she ran her fingers through his hair. Moving down further he removed his fingers and placed his mouth over her moisten pussy. His tongue moved along her lips as he slowly slid his tongue inside of her. He licked and sucked until he felt her body convulsing with an orgasm that had her screaming his name out loud.
He got up on his knees and with his hands on her knees, he looked down, loving how he had finally gotten to the place he had been dreaming of since he had met her. It was as amazing as he knew it would be and he knew that being inside her would be a hell of a lot better. So slowly moving up her body he kissed her hard on the lips as he used one hand to rub his cock against her wet pussy before he entered her. He knew he had to be gentle and as much as he wanted to just pound into her like crazy he took it slow.
She really had no idea that being with him in this way was going to be so amazing. As much as she would have loved for him to be a little bit rougher she understood that he was taking it easy for the sake of her and the baby.
"Faster, I'm almost there," she called out, digging her nails into his back as she felt the orgasm coming. When it did it left her breathless and panting like crazy and when she felt him release inside of her and the way he was moaning it made her feel so good.
After catching his breath he leaned over and kissed her before rolling off and onto his side. "Wow, there are no words to describe how fantastic that felt." He turned his head to look at her and reached for her hand. "I love you and I hope that it was as good for you as it was for me."

"Oh, it sure was, even though I could tell you were holding back a little it was still amazing. I want you to know that I don't regret what we've done and I just hope it doesn't cause you any trouble later on."
"I don't regret it for a minute and I can't wait to do it again. As for what will happen if anyone finds out I don't care. We've done nothing wrong. But you are right about one thing."
"What's that?"
"The part about how I was holding back. Now that you're getting further along in your pregnancy I don't want to risk anything going wrong. So for the time being I will be gentle."
The next day when he went to work he walked in with a smile on his face and hummed a tune from a song he had heard playing on the radio. He said hi to everybody that he walked by, even to the people that he barely knew. He didn't think anything could spoil his mood, that was until he walked into his office and found Joyce sitting there waiting for him.
"Well someone's in a good mood."
"I was until I saw you."
"Is that any way to talk to your wife?"
"Soon to be ex-wife, and yes it is. So what the hell do you want?"
"I just came to see if you would like to settle our divorce without going before a judge. All you have to do is give me everything I ask for and I'll leave you alone."
He slammed his fist on the desk. "I'm not giving you a penny more than I have to. As for the house, there's no way in hell I'm letting you get it. Damn it, Joyce, you don't even like that it."
"You're right I don't and I have no intentions of living in it. I'll be selling it and buying something more fitting and luxurious. Do you really want to put your lover through a messy divorce?"
"Christy has nothing to do with this, it's between you and me."
"Now you listen to me, I will not only make your life a living hell I'll also make her life miserable. She will be known as a homewrecker and a gold digger."
"I think you're talking about yourself. If anyone is a gold digger it's you, you nasty evil cow." He was shocked and raised an eyebrow when she started crying, wiping her eyes with a tissue.
"I don't know why you cheated on me or why you never touched me all these years. I know you've been cheating on me for years but I let it go because I loved you so much but when you brought that girl into our house I knew right away that you were sleeping with her. I'm so heartbroken, how could you be so cruel to me? I put up with your abuse and you're running around and this is the thanks I get."
"You can cut the act," he snapped at her.
She looked up at him with an evil smile on her face. "You have to admit it was a good act and I'll guarantee that the judge will believe me."
He didn't want to admit it to her but to himself, he had to agree, she did sound convincing but he wasn't going to let her get away with it. "You can shed all the tears you want, no one is going to believe you."
"I will just see about that, I have more up my sleeve but I'm going to save that for a later time. So do yourself and that tramp a favour and just give me everything I want and sign the divorce papers."
"Get out of my office before I bodily throw you out."
"I would love that, let everyone here see how abusive you are to me. But I do have a hair appointment so I will see you next week at the courthouse. Goodbye, darling."
When she walked out and shut the door behind her he picked up his empty coffee mug and threw it across the room and cursed. Needless to say, the rest of his day was ruined, he went through the motions until it was time to go home.
When Christy heard the front door opening and knew he was home she went to greet him. Right away she could tell he was in a bad mood.
"You look like you could use a drink," she said, hoping it would relax him.
"Do you really think a drink solves everything?"
It was a shock to hear him snap at her like that, he had never done that before. "No I don't, I just thought you could use something because it looked like you had a bad day. So excuse me, I'll just leave you alone."
He rubbed his forehead, he felt terrible for snapping at her the way he had. He knew he had to go and apologize right away. So he went to find her and when she wasn't anywhere inside he went outside and found her sitting on the bench in the garden.
"Christy, I'm so sorry. I had no right to snap at you, you didn't deserve that."
She wiped her tears away and looked up at him. "I just want to know what I did to make you so angry."
"It was nothing you did."
"Then why did you snap at me?"
He went over and sat down beside her. "I was in a great mood when I left here this morning but as soon as I got to work Joyce was waiting for me in my office."
"Are you going to take your anger out on me every time you have a run-in with her?"
He took her hand and held it in his. "No, it's just that she really got to me. My whole day was ruined because of her and I couldn't concentrate on my work. I just thank God that I didn't have any surgeries to perform today."
"Do you want to talk to me about what she said to you?"
"She kind of threatened me. Told me that if I didn't agree to everything that she wanted she would make my life as well as yours a living hell."
"How exactly can she do that?"
"For one thing she could delay the divorce proceedings for months, maybe even years. I believe she is planning on accusing me of physical abuse as well as cheating."
"Cole, there is nothing for her to prove. Until last night we hadn't had sex. We didn't do anything when the two of you were together. She's just trying to scare you. I bet she knows that when you go in front of the judge and he hears both sides of the story he will know that she is the one lying."
"You don't know her the way I do. She had the nerve to show me what a good actress she was while she was in my office. Showing me what she was going to do in front of the judge, tears and everything. If I didn't know her and what she is capable of doing I would have believed her."
"Whatever happens I'll be right by your side."
He placed his hand on the side of her face and leaned over and kissed her. "As long as I have you by my side I can get through anything. I love you so much, Christy."
"I love you too. I think I know what might help you to relax a little."
"I'm willing to try anything, so what have you got in mind?"
"I think you could use a nice warm shower."
"I'd rather stay right here with you."
She got up and held her hand out for him to take. "You'll still be with me." When she saw the confused look on his face she giggled. "For someone so educated you're not very bright. I am suggesting that we take a shower together."
"Now you're talking," he said as he took her hand and followed her inside.
