Fourth Wave (eBook)

Chapter 12

Simon

Just as I finish with the last detail of one of the project items, Shelby comes back in. I notice she looks slightly pale and my protective instincts start. Did Frank upset her?

“Luv, are you okay?” I ask, as I get up to meet her half way. I bring my hands to her arms rubbing them. I then take one to her forehead, feeling it with the back of my hand.

“I feel nauseous,” she says and leans in against me, wrapping her arms tightly around my waist. I will never get tired of her leaning on me.

“You want something to eat? We have been busy, maybe you are just hungry.” I say, still holding her in my arms.

“Maybe some toast,” she says as she releases her grip and walks over to the couch, grabbing her water bottle on the way.

“I can do that.” I say, watching her as she moves before I head to the kitchen. Once in the kitchen, I grab two slices of bread and put them into the toaster. “Do you want anything on the toast?” I call from the kitchen.

“No,” she says and then I hear the television turn on. I peek out from the kitchen and see Shelby laying on the couch with the blanket over her as she changes the channels on the television. Just then the toaster pops. I put the two pieces on a plate and grab a napkin for her.

“Here you go,” I say, placing the plate on the coffee table in front of her. I join her sitting at the end of the couch, putting her legs over my lap. Shelby grabs a piece of toast and takes a small bite. I watch the news with her hoping the toast helps, but still wondering about Frank.

After a few minutes pass and Shelby has finished her toast and had some water, her color looks a little better.

“So, what happened with Frank?” I ask.

“The normal,” she says with a short smile that I am not sure how to react to. “At first he was against it. Well, not against it, but against me going,” she says shaking her head.

“I can’t say I don’t agree with him,” I say, putting it out there. It is not that I don’t want to help. But, having Shelby in a hostile area definitely has my nerves on edge.

“Not going there,” she says, looking over at me and pushing her foot slightly into my side. “Never-the-less, he wants you to send him your outline so he can go over the security part of it.”

She pauses.

“Okay, I will email it to him.” I glance over at the news that has information about the war zone. We both finish watching the story before Shelby continues.

“No, you can’t email it. He wants it delivered by courier and double wrapped,” she says with a smile. I just look at her with a confused look on my face. “He does not want anyone to know about the outline and our plans as much as possible. He definitely does not want anything electronic he said for security purposes.”

She finishes and grabs her water to take a drink. She sits up a little as if she is feeling better.

“Really, top secret.” I say laughing, but then I feel sick to my stomach, as my nerves start playing with me. Frank has seen things that Shelby and I have never seen. Just then, I have an urge to go through the outline again for safety factors. I decide then that once Frank does his part, we will have to meet. Knowing, we can’t do anything this minute, I try to get the thought out of my head.

“I’m hungry,” she says, interrupting my thoughts. “Let’s go get some Italian,” she announces, getting up from the couch.

“That’s specific,” I say with a laugh and walk over to my laptop.

“What are you doing?” she asks.

“Since we are going out. I figured, I would bring the top secret material together to drop off at the courier for Carol to bring.” I say with all seriousness.

“That’s a good idea,” she says and turns to go into the bedroom. I assume to get a sweatshirt. The restaurant and the currier are all in walking distance. I hit print and grab the papers and put them in a sealed envelope and then another with just the basic information so it will get to Frank.

“All set.” I say, as Shelby walks in. She looks so cute and sexy. The yoga pants bring out her curves and the sweatshirt can’t hide her chest. My eyes quickly rake up her body, thinking what our night will be like.

Shelby grabs a set of keys and we make our way to the elevator. Once the door closes, I corner her pressing my body against her. Moving her hair off her neck, I bring my lips to the spot she loves to be kissed. A moan escapes her lips as I suck harder, leaving a slight mark and lick with my tongue to soothe it.

“Simon,” she moans again and the elevator doors open. I grab her hand intertwining our fingers as she tries to control her breathing from my little tease feast. Once outside, we first hit the delivery store. It was pretty simple and they informed us that it will be delivered to Carol today. A few blocks away is the Italian restaurant. Shelby takes a deep breath when we enter.

“We will have to wait a little to get take out or do you want to eat here?” I ask, grabbing a menu. Just then the hostess comes over.

“Can I help you?” she asks and before I can find out where we are eating. Shelby answers her.

“We just want to get an order to go,” she says, informing the hostess of our plans. The hostess provides us with a menu and points over to the bar area where we can order and wait for our food. Shelby and I review the menu before the bartender comes over to take our order. I order a lasagna and Shelby orders three other entrees.

“I guess, you were hungry,” I say, teasing my girl as I wrap my arms around her waist standing behind her and whispering in her ear. She turns around in my arms and brings her arms around my shoulders pulling me closer to her.

“You can only imagine what I am hungry for,” she says softly in my ear. Without missing a beat she grabs my hand and pulls me to follow her. The restaurant is nearly empty as it is late afternoon and too early for the dinner crowd.

“Where are we going?” I ask, not sure what she is thinking. Just then she stops in front of the ladies room. She looks around as I look where she does. She opens the door and pulls me in. Quickly she locks the door and looks at me with a fire in her eyes, I have never seen before.

She walks over to the counter with the sinks and looks at me in the mirror. I slowly walk towards her as the blood rushes to my sweatpants. Shelby is still looking in the mirror at me and lifts her arms over her head. I quickly bring my hands to the hem of her sweatshirt and pull it over her head and arms leaving her in her black lace bra with her breast bulging to be released.

I press my body against hers and she brings her hands to my cock and rubs over it causing me to grow for her. My mouth finds her neck as my hands release her breasts from the lace. Shelby’s other hand moves to the counter holding herself in place as I rub against her.

“You look amazing,” I say into her ear as I continue to kiss her. She moves her head to meet my lips. I move my hand down the front of her yoga pants and panties feeling the moisture that has collected. Looking quickly in the mirror as my fingers enter her. Shelby moans my name as I increase my rhythm.

“I need you,” she says as she moves her hands to the hem of her yoga pants and slides them down. I remove my hand quickly and finish removing her pants leaving one leg off. Shelby moves her hands to the counter and bends her ass into me. I slide down by sweatpants and underwear pressing my bulge against her.

“You are so naughty,” I say into her ear as I enter her. She brings her bum against me moving with the same rhythm. I move one hand to her breast as the other moves to her sensitive spot moving my fingers in a tight circle.

“You make me feel so good,” she says breathless as I increase my pace. Looking at her one more time as my head moves up and my mouth opens with my breathing increasing. My hands move to her hips as I pump harder and faster in her. Her legs start to shake letting me know she is almost there.

“Luv, come for me. Come around me, now,” I say, leaning over her quickly and kissing the spot on her neck. Shelby quickly moves one of her hands over her mouth as she comes undone. I use my hand to hold her up as I pump again and release inside of her. I learn over her, kissing her back and neck as she catches her breath. She finally opens her eyes and I lean up slowing pulling out of her.

“I love you,” she says as she turns to face me and brings her arms around my neck and kisses me.

“I love you too,” I say, bringing my tongue to massage hers. Shelby and I have done a lot of stuff, but this was amazing. Both of us with smiles indented across our face, get dressed. Shelby looks in the mirror before we leave the restroom.

Once back at the bar, we sit...
