Saving Grace

Grace endured the boredom that struck her for two weeks straight. She wrote till she was tired, she also tore off some displeasing pages off the notebook. Joshua visited her everyday and complimented her beauty, he refused to talk about their previous conversation concerning her mother. He was her light and her salvation. She stared at her immobile legs and bit her lips. If only she could walk. If only she could stand on her feet.

Due to the heat, Grace removed two buttons from her hospital gown, then another. The creamy flesh exposed to the air. She looked down on her cleavage and smiled. Her breasts had grown bigger in the hospital.

Her stray thoughts were halted when she sighted Joshua at the door with a amused look on his face.

“You do know you are supposed to knock?” Grace smiled.

“Well I don’t know and I don’t intend to. ” Joshua replied with a husky voice.

Grace wondered why his eyes were so dark until she looked at her cleavage. She internally facepalmed herself for revealing so much. She then proceeded to button up but Joshua had already walked up to the bed with crazy strides. Grace then placed her hands on her cleavage, trying to protect herself in a dramatic way.

Joshua chuckled.

Grace gasped. What was he thinking?

Before she could protest, he had shoved her hands away from her cleavage. Joshua brought his fingers to her chest teasingly and slid them up her cleavage, all the way to her neck, then down again. She bit her lip. She was so sensitive and she knew he loved that. She watched as Joshua sat on the bed and her breathing became quicker and ragged.

Joshua ran his hands to the mounds of flesh that were her breasts, and squeezed them while he leaned closer to kiss her jaw, then her neck. She ran her hands over his back as he licked and grazed the skin of her neck with his teeth, leaving little marks that wouldn’t stay there long, but the sight of them on her pale, sensitive skin still turned him on. He did the same with her collarbone, brushing at her skin with his lips to tease her, before kissing and sucking gently.

Her breathing was already getting a little louder and faster and she had her hands folded up around his back, pressing him down against her. He left a trail of kisses from her neck to one of her breasts squeezing it in his hand as he kissed all around it playfully.

“Hmm…” she moaned as he lingered on the side where he could feel her ribs. She was a little bit ticklish there. She threw one arm over her head as she arched her back slightly. She wanted more but he wasn’t going to give it to her just yet. Instead he licked the skin under her breasts, just at the line where they started while squeezing them both in his hands and playing with them, pushing them together. Then he let go, letting them fall and he kissed the skin between them. As he pulled back, he admired how hard and flushed her nipples were.

“Has anyone ever told you you’ve got big nipples?” he asked her.

“Do you think it’s weird?” she asked as she stroked his hair.

“Are you kidding? No, I love it, they’re beautiful…”

He took one between his thumb and index finger and pinched it gently as he kissed the skin around it, working his way to the nipple excruciatingly slowly. He sucked at her skin, leaving a couple of hickeys. She let out a cute moan and he felt so turned on, but he wanted to be patient with her. He knew how sensitive she was and he wanted to see if he could please her to her satisfaction.

She hadn’t been expecting this but now she found herself enjoying it. She didn’t want him to stop. Her breathing got more intense and her eyes lidded as she tangled her pale fingers in Joshua’s dark tousled hair. She loved it, but at the same time it was torture. His tongue expertly licked her skin, making circles before pulling back and letting his lips do the work. And his hot breath against her just-kissed skin made her go crazy. Slowly, so slowly, he got closer to her nipple, which he still held between his fingers, occasionally squeezing, sometimes just a little too hard before releasing it right away so she barely had time to register the pain.

“Hmm… bite my nipple…” she said before she could stop herself. She blushed at the words she hadn’t even thought before she spoke them out loud.

He smirked at her, but then he switched to her other breast without even giving her what she wanted.

“Jerk,” she teased.

“All in good time, tigress,” he said huskily then went to work again with his tongue, twirling it against her sensitive, pale skin. He blew across her skin and her nipple teasingly.

“Mmm…”

She wanted his tongue to lick her nipple so bad; she’d never even thought she could crave something like that so badly up until now.

Joshua continued to kiss all around her breasts for a little while and he ran his warm hands over her body, and her nipples were so hard and neglected that she started to feel a little frustrated. She wanted to feel the friction of his chest against her nipples. But he didn’t let her. And when she reached under his pants with a desperate hand he grabbed both her arms and pinned her wrists above her head.

He smiled at her. “Impatient much?”

“Joshua, come on, please…”

He smirked, then finally indulged her, giving one slow, long lick across her breast before kissing her nipple. She shivered in pleasure, feeling a tingle deep in her privates, he gave her nipple his full attention, flicking it over and over with his tongue. With his other hand he squeezed the other nipple, flicking it with his finger. She felt all warm and tingly between her legs, and all throughout her body. He was so good with his tongue; she’d never experienced something like that before.

“Oh my,” she exclaimed when his teeth grazed her nipple.

She hadn’t been expecting it; definitely took her by surprise but she liked it. He bit it gently, then increasingly hard, but switched to the other nipple before the first one could be too hurt. Using his hands to squeeze her breasts as close together as possible, he licked both her nipples with one long flick of his tongue. Then he focused on just one again, biting it, harder, harder, and she was about to scream out and tell him to stop, afraid that it would hurt too much. But just before she screamed out, he replaced his teeth with his lips, then his tongue, and he did that twirling thing again that made her go wild.

Grace moaned helplessly, expecting more but was perplexed when she felt nothing no more.

“That’s how you say good afternoon.” Joshua laughed while giving her a peck.

Grace’s face was completely flushed. She felt cheap like a slut. She thought he was going to give her more.

“I thought you didn’t want us to do this.” Joshua joked with a wink.

“Stop it!” Grace replied.

She was further perplexed when Joshua brought out his phone from his pocket and moved the device closer to her face.

“What are you doing?” Grace asked confusedly.

“Taking a picture.” Joshua simply responded.

Grace watched as Joshua buttoned up the undone buttons, cupping a last feel. Then he urged Grace to smile at the camera. Grace shot him a glare before smiling like an angel. She then smiled wider as he took several shots. Her jaws were starting to hurt.

“Are you not through with taking the pictures?” Grace gritted her teeth.

“Yeah, I’m done.” Joshua hurriedly replied on noticing her facial expression.

“Let me see them.” Grace asked, trying to reach out for his phone.

“No.”

“Seriously? It’s my face.” Grace complained.

“But it’s my phone.” Joshua replied with a smirk.

Grace decided to ask him a pressing question.

“Do you like me or you just like my body?” Grace asked with boldness, her head gummed to the pillow.

With a gentle pat on her hand, Joshua replied,”I like both.”

“Okay.”

“Why are you asking? You are doubtful of my feelings for you?” Joshua questioned.

“It’s not that. I just want to be certain that this is real.” Grace replied.

“This is real. You and I are real.” Joshua whispered, bending his head to devour her lips. Her sweet lips.

Grace placed her hands at the back of his head and obliged to the kiss. She drowned in the taste of his tongue and she was amazed. When he withdrew from the kiss, Grace smiled at him affectionately.

“I really like you a lot, Grace Waters. I like the way you smile. It makes me happy. I love your voice, it’s intoxicating. I love your breasts, they are so damn sexy. I like everything about you. ” Joshua confessed.

Grace wanted to cry, she was so happy. Even in her state, she was glad that someone still liked and cherished her.

“I want to stay with you so bad but I have to do something tonight. It’s pretty important. Catch you later, tigress.” Joshua winked.

“I like you too.” Grace whispered into his ear.

“I know.” Joshua gallantly replied before walking towards the door.

She smiled as he threw her an invisible kiss before leaving. She felt on top of the world. She was glad to meet a man like Joshua.

*******

Joshua grinned as he flung the door of the doctor’s lounge open. He wanted to speak to Helen. They were both not on talking terms for two weeks and he felt bad. Helen was always the person who called anytime there was an emergency but now she was indifferent and less concerned. He wasn’t surprised to see that she was the only person in the lounge.

Joshua advanced towards Helen who was fully engrossed in a textbook. He removed the textbook from her left hand and threw it on the table.

He needed her attention.

“What the hell do you want?” Helen glared.

“You.”

“What?” Helen asked.

“Well…. you see…. I’m really sorry about what happened but you caused it. You talked brashly about my love life which is none of your business.” Joshua responded.

“Apology not accepted.” Helen replied.

“Alright, I mean it. I’m really sorry for what I said.” Joshua pressed.

“Apology not accepted.” Helen repeated.

“Okay, what if we go out tonight? I could take you to your favorite bar and we could drink.” Joshua was desperate to get his best friend back.

“Really?” Helen said.

“Yeah and I promise, I won’t stand you up.” Joshua was slightly happy that she wasn’t upset.

“Okay then, what time?” Helen smiled.

“8pm.” Joshua replied.

“Then it’s a date?” Helen smirked.

“No, it’s just an outing but you could call it a date.” Joshua replied. He wanted to be careful so as not to infuriate her. He heaved a sigh of relief, clutching the couch. He watched as Helen picked up the textbook she was reading with a different smile on her face. Joshua beamed and then walked out of the lounge without speaking.

Joshua was happy with himself.
