Beyond A Crush Read online

  "This was a beautiful wedding." Simone's mother said looking down at her hand.

  "Yes it is. I'm having a good time." Terri said as she took her grandmother's hand.

  "I'm glad you all are enjoying yourselves." Simone said.

  Simone's father touched her hand. "Thank you for inviting us again. The ceremony was wonderful."

  "You're welcome." Simone said

  "Hopefully we will see the two of you more often, so we can get to know each other." I said while looking at Simone.

  She smiled at me. "We'll see."

  It got really quiet. I was starting to feel a little bit uncomfortable. Simone's parent's got up to leave with Terri. As they were leaving, Simone's mother looked back at her.

  "Simone, I hope one day you can forgive us and we can build a new and better relationship with you."

  Simone looked at her parents. "We will. I just need some time."

  Everyone finally left our home. Simone and I were both exhausted. Simone was sitting on the couch in our room, while I sat on the floor rubbing her feet.

  "I don't know why you didn't put your other shoes on."

  "I know, I know. I was looking too good. Plus my loafers didn't match my dress."

  I started laughing. "Well that's why your feet are hurting. Trying to look good."

  Simone tried to kick me but I was holding both her legs. She got up and unzipped her dress. It fell to the floor. She took her bra and thong off. She walked to the bathroom and was standing in the doorway.

  Simone smiled and bit her bottom lip. "Would you like to join me Mrs. Jefferson?"

  Simone didn't wait for my response. She walked in the bathroom and turned the shower on. I started taking my clothes off while walking toward the bathroom. When I entered the shower, Simone had soap all over her. She smelled like coco butter. She handed me her wash cloth so I could wash her back for her. While I was washing her back, I felt Simone hands on my legs. She turn around to face me and she kissed me. She open my mouth with her tongue. I could tell she wanted me. I felt like teasing her. I pulled back from her and grabbed the shower gel. She started laughing. We continued to shower without making love. I was so wet. I can only imagine how wet Simone was. We got out the shower and dried each other off. Simone put her robe on and went to the kitchen to get some glasses and a bottle of wine. I lit some candles and incense, and put some music on. Miguel's Adorn was playing in the background. Simone walked in and I took the glasses and wine away from her. I pulled her close to me and started slow dancing with her.

  I started singing the song in her ear. "These lips, can't wait to taste you skin, baby. And these eyes, can't wait to see your grin."

  She started breathing heavy. I untied her belt and slid her robe off of her shoulders. We continued dancing. I needed to feel her skin on mine. I rubbed her back and softly caressed her butt. I started kissing her and sucking on her neck. She moaned and gripped my sides. I licked her lightly, from her neck to her earlobes. I took her hand and put it between my legs. She felt my wetness. She rubbed my lips, then brought her fingers to her mouth. I watched in excitement.

  Simone whispered in my ear out of breath. "I need you now love."

  I took her hand and we got in the bed. I started to go down on Simone, but she stopped me. I looked at her confused.

  "I want to taste you, while you taste me." She said.

  I laid on my side and Simone was on her side opposite me. We moved close to each other. Our noses could touch each other’s lips. I grabbed Simone's legs and put my face between her thighs. She did the same to me. Our bodies were connected as one. She licked and sucked all of my juices and I took all of hers. We both moaned and shook. Loving each other to our very core. I came first. My orgasm was so powerful. If I wasn't so focused on Simone coming, I would have cried out. It felt beyond good. I flipped over so Simone was on top of me. Never taking my tongue out of her. Simone rode my face backwards. She had her hands pressed against my stomach. I wish I could see her face, but her butt was all I could see. The way she was moaning and breathing heavily, I could tell my tongue was working its magic on her clit.

  "Jamie... Stay right there baby."

  Simone laid her head between my thighs and screamed into my wet lips as she started to come. She laid beside me out of breath. I start laughing at her and kissed her on the forehead.

  "You thirsty babe? You look like you could use some water."

  Simone looked at me and rolled her eyes and laughed. "I could use some wine instead."

  I got up and poured us a glass of wine. We both sat up in bed, sipping on our wine. Simone played with my hand, looking at my ring.

  "I love my ring babe." I said looking at it with Simone

  "I am so glad you do. Terri and I went ring shopping and she showed me the style of rings you like. I had this one custom made just for you."

  "Thank you babe."

  I put my wine glass down and took Simone's empty glass out of her hand. I put my hands on her face and kissed her. I moved from her lips to her breasts. I sucked on each one slowly and pulled each nipple with my lips. Simone threw her head back. She was enjoying what I was doing to her.

  "You are like the energizer bunny. You keep going and going and going and..."

  I started laughing. "I can't help that I have a sexy wife who I want to make love to over and over again.

  "Is that right?" Simone said with her eyebrows hiked up. "I think you just have a high sex drive."

  "You may be right, but I can't help myself. You are sexy as hell."

  We both started laughing.

  "I promise to always give myself to you." Simone said. "You don't ever have to worry about that. My body is yours and it belongs to you."

  I kissed Simone and put my forehead on hers. "My body is yours too babe."

  Simone and I made love to each other all night long. It was definitely a wedding night to remember.

  Years Later

  "Max come pick up your backpack." Simone yelled.

  "Ok mama. Here I come." Max looks at me and pause the game.

  "I told you to pick it up. You're going to get me in trouble, too." I said.

  "You're not going to get in trouble mommy." Max said as he jumps up and sprints downstairs.

  I followed behind him. "Hey babe." I hugged Simone from the back and kissed the back of her neck.

  She turned around and kissed me on my lips. "Hey love." Her smile filled the room.

  "Gross!" Max said.

  Simone and I started laughing. "Hi Mad Max." Simone hugged him and gave him a kiss on the cheek.

  "Double Gross!" he said.

  "You need to get used to the kissing little boy." I said.

  "Yeah, yeah can I go finish playing my game?" Max asked.

  "Yes baby. Dinner will be ready soon." Simone said.

  Max left the kitchen and Simone looked at me smiling. She walked over to me and put her hands on my waist. She had this sparkle in her eyes. I became shy with her looking at me.

  "You're so beautiful." Simone said as she brought her lips to mine.

  I love our quick make out sessions. Since we adopted Maxwell our lives have dramatically changed. I never thought our lives could become better than what it was, but it did. The love we have for Max surpasses the love we have for each other.

  We never thought about having children or adopting. Simone had Terri and that was it. But things changed when Terri brought her son Julian to stay with us for two weeks while she and her husband went on vacation. Julian was two, and I completely fell in love with him. Simone could see it. After he left, I missed him terribly. I was sad for about a week. Simone kept asking me what was wrong, but I didn't tell her. I just told her I was ok. I thought if I told her the truth, it would hurt our marriage. I loved Simone too much to mess up what we had together. Deep down, Simone knew. She tried to talk to me, but I would change the subject.

  Then one day while we were cuddling in bed she said, "We have so much love to give". Those words had me
crying. She knew I wanted a child. I didn't fully understand what was going on with me, but she did. One day I came home from work and she was sitting on the floor playing with this precious little boy. He looked like he was around three years old. He looked at me, and motioned me with his little fingers to come and play with them. I sat between the two of them and we started playing. I looked at Simone with tears building up in my eyes. She whispered, "This is our son Maxwell." I sat there on the floor and cried like a baby. I hugged Simone so tight. She wiped my tears with her hands.

  We tucked Max in bed and kissed him goodnight. When we finally got in bed. Simone told me for the past year she was looking to adopt a child. Maxwell was two when he entered the system. She visited him a couple times and she knew he was meant to be our son. And she was right. We adopted him and we've been his two mommies ever since.

  No-one can ever tell me what love is because I know firsthand. To try to truly describe it would be hard because it changes for everyone, but its foundation is always the same; giving of one self. Simone had no fear or doubt about what I needed. I felt having a child would change the love I had for her, for our relationship. What she saw was completely different. When she saw me, she saw love, and that was all she needed.

  So here we are, years later with a ten year old running our lives. I am truly complete. When I think back on how we began, none of this would have happened if I didn’t go with Terri to visit her mother that wonderful weekend. Destiny… fate… that’s Simone and I.
