Guilty Pleasures

Chapter 15

Naomi screamed out her release as Gerard rammed into her welcoming body, her nails leaving long scratches along his back as his hands tilted her hips toward his, plunging deeper. Gerard felt the muscles in his jaw clench as he watched Naomi arching her back toward him, craving more contact and giving him a spectacular view of her body.

He could feel himself losing control as he pumped into her with such force that he was sure they would both be bruised in the morning. Naomi didn’t care as long as he kept moving.

“Gerard, I’m coming!” Naomi screamed as her second orgasm washed over her, nearly causing her to black out from the force of the pleasure. ‘I could easily die from this,’ she thought happily as Gerard called her name, spilling himself inside her before collapsing on top of her.

Naomi looked around, vaguely realizing that they’d made it to his bedroom. Or at least, practically in his bedroom- since they had been so focused on each other, they’d landed on the floor.

Gerard rolled away from her as Naomi snuggled into his chest, feeling a chill creep over her as they separated, leaving the cool air to run over her damp skin Gerard breathed heavily as he let his arms pull her close, trailing a hand along her skin. Naomi bit her lip, wondering if she should broach the Homecoming conversation right now and deciding this might be the best time. After all, what other time would he ever be this relaxed?

“Gee?” she murmured, letting her hand play with the muscles in his chest as he sighed in contentment.

“Yeah, baby” he whispered, his eyes already beginning to close with exhaustion.

“You know the dance this weekend?” Naomi asked in a quiet tone, before worrying her bottom lip, taking out her nervousness on it.

“Yeah,” Gerard said with a yawn. “I’m chaperoning.”

Naomi took a deep breath. “I guess I’ll see you there then,” she whispered.

Gerard was instantly awake as he realized what they were talking about.
“You’re going to be there?”

Naomi hesitantly nodded. “Martyn Williams asked me to go.”

Gerard felt his stomach drop as his hand fell from her shoulders.

Naomi propped herself up to look at him, her hair framing her face as she stared down at the man who was the object of all of her thoughts. “Gee, he doesn’t mean anything-“

“Have a good time,” Gerard replied in a cold voice as he got to his feet, looking around his bedroom and slipping on some sweatpants.

Naomi watched him, feeling tears spring to her eyes before looking at the ground, curling her legs up to her chest in a modest effort to hide herself.
“If you don’t want me to go…I won’t,” she murmured, not taking the risk of looking at him. “I’ll understand.”

Gerard looked at her, feeling his heart clench as he stared at her small huddled body before closing his eyes for a brief moment as he realized what he was doing to her. ‘She’s a senior in high school, you wanker,’ he chastised himself. ‘And you’re trying to take these memories away from her. You can’t honestly expect her to miss out on everything.’

“Come here, baby,” he whispered, helping her to her feet as he wrapped her in a strong embrace. He let his hands run through her hair, trying to soothe her as he felt her tears on his chest. “I’m sorry,” he whispered, kissing the top of her head. “You go and have a good time.”

“I don’t have to,” Naomi whispered, shaking her head as she looked at him with watery eyes, hating the fact that he was seeing her at such a weak moment.

Gerard tenderly brushed her tears away, keeping his eyes locked with hers. “You have fun with your friends,” he said before a smile spread across his face. “Meet up with me afterwards?”

Naomi smiled before nodding. “Of course,” she whispered as he pulled her to him for another hug. Naomi felt the relief wash over her as he continued to comfort her.

Gerard continued his soothing methods, staring at a point on the wall but not seeing it as his eyes took on a distant quality. ‘How long can we keep doing this?’
