They had another lazy evening with lit candles in front of the television, it was becoming quite a regular thing now and they both loved it, just snuggling into each other's bodies and every now and then sharing intimate, passionate kisses where their lips are pressed together for a few seconds at a time, and then they would break off gently and stare at the television for a while, and then back to their kissing, their hands also wandering each other's bodies because it was an irresistible opportunity. Once it hit midnight they thought it'd be best to call it a day and head off to bed, where they snuggled up closely together, their bodies locked into each other and their arms wrapped around each other, safely tucked up with the duvet wrapped around them, and various pillows surrounding them. Karen felt so safe in Chris's arms, and he found it extremely comforting to know she cared about him so much, and they were both amazed at how well the relationship had settled in, and how quickly they'd got used to it, knowing it had always been destined.
The following morning the girls were off out early to work and college, and Chris rose early leaving Karen to sleep and he headed for the shower as soon as the girls were done in the bathroom showering, and doing their hair and make up, which Chris was still not used to: spending so much time in a house full of women, he'd never understand why they spent so much time making themselves over, just to go out to work or whatever. He sighed as he waited for the bathroom to become free and then made his way in to get himself together leaving Karen still asleep, she deserved to get as much rest as possible...
When he was dressed and out the shower he returned to Karen, she was his own special sleeping beauty, he loved watching her sleep, she seemed so innocent and helpless lying there in the middle of the bed, with the duvet wrapped around her and the wintery January sunlight just starting to seep through the curtains. He knew he'd have to wake her soon to get her up, so they could head off to the rink without them being so late that Jayne gets annoyed, (this was also becoming quite a regular habit, much to Jayne's disgust, and Chris's too, he had also been extremely conscious of time, but now he was with Karen the obsession seemed to have died down a bit, she seemed to calm him down a bit and he didn't mind being a little late).
"Karen, honey, wakey-wakey..." he whispered softly into her ear, as he wandered over to the bedside and slowly and gently climbed on next to her, gently so he didn't jog the bed or jolt her awake...he hated to disturb her, but after all it had to be done...
"No... no not yet just a little longer... please.... oh I love you sexy Christopher..." Karen replied with her eyes still shut tight, still sleeping and dreaming, but somehow aware that Chris was there in her surroundings, but wasn't fully conscious of where exactly she was...
Chris laughed lightly at her response and gently shook her shoulders in a second attempt to wake her, not liking that he was breaking up her wonderful dreams.
"No babe, come on you've got to get up, we've got to go to work honey..." he said in a hushed voice, lying next to her now, and stroking her arm softly.
"What time is it...." she murmered still reluctant to get up, not realizing how late it was.
"It's half 8 honey, come on it's time you got up and sorted, or we'll be late..." he said speaking a little louder this time but still in a soft tone of voice.
This woke Karen up in an instant, half 8?? Normally she would have been up an hour ago if not longer, and would be dressed and showered and be doing her hair and make up, now she was sure to be late... Why hadn't he woken her earlier? And he'd be the one complaining when they were late and Jayne would be getting annoyed...
"Chris!" she said quite loudly, sitting up quickly, a bit too quickly for her head's liking...
"What?" he asked innocently.
"Why haven't you got me up before now??" she demanded, worried how they were ever going to get to the rink for 9:15. "We're going to be so late now do you realize that?!" she carried on, quickly getting out of bed in a hurry, and looking for her towel to have a quick shower, and there'd be no time to wash her hair.
"Well that doesn't matter too much does it?" Chris said to her, surprised at how worked up she was getting, and not realizing she would need more than an hour to get ready for work! "Jayne must be used to us being late by now anyway, and I'm not even that bothered anymore, and you know what I was like before I was with you..." Chris continued on, thinking of when he used to live with Jill and be rushing around to get to the rink about an hour before anyone else, and if they weren't there 5 minutes before they were supposed to be meeting he'd get all panicked and wonder where the hell they'd got to...
"Oh come on Chris, you know how long it takes me to get ready, surely you'd have thought to get me up before now? How long have you been up? Have the girls gone?" she was firing questions at him like god knows what and still couldn't find her towel, something else that Chris had tidied up during his period of boredom the day before, and not warned Karen about it, or where he'd moved it to. "I don't suppose you've seen my towel have you..." she asked, feeling like it was a stupid question to ask, but thought she'd better ask anyway in case he did know where it was; her voice was muffled because she was looking through the cupboards at the other side of the room.
"Erm, yeah I do actually, it's in the wash, thought it could do with one," he replied casually.
"Well thanks for the heads up, here's me looking for it! I'm wasting so much time... the more I think about it the more late I'm convinced we're going to be!" Karen snapped back at him dragging another clean towel out the top of the wardrobe, pulling a small load down with it, and ordering Chris to sort it out for her and have it done by the time she was out.
"Wow, what's wrong with you today?" he said as she disappeared through to the en suite bathroom and slammed the door slightly behind her. "Stressy!" Chris muttered under his breath as he got up off the bed and went to pick up all the towels that had fallen in a heap on the floor.
Karen must have had the quickest shower of her life - normally she took forever in there until everything got steamed up and then she was forced to open the window to clear the place out, and normally she'd go out and forget to close it, so when she got home, the whole house would be freezing - but today she was so quick it barely got foggy at all, she hurried out quickly dried herself and picked out her grey jog bottoms with a fluffy lining, and cream long sleeved top, quickly ran a brush through her almost- perfect hair and quickly applied a bit of mascara (poking her eye with the wand in the process because she was trying to do it in such a hurry) and lippy, before running downstairs and putting four slices of toast under the grill.
"Blimey Karen, I don't think I've ever seen you get ready that bloody quick," Chris said in a bit of shock, following her downstairs, glancing at the clock which read just 8:45. "We've got half an hour!"
"Well we could get a lot done in half an hour," she replied seductively, impressed by her own speediness, thinking it would at the very least, be 9:00. She walked over to where Chris was sitting at the kitchen table, and leaving the toast in the grill, placed soft kisses on his lips, wrapping her arms around his neck.
"Oh, could we now," Chris replied in between sweet kisses, he had one arm wrapped around Karen's waist and the other placed on her bottom, then he moved it slowly down her leg, pulled her onto his lap as the kisses got a little longer and more intense, and his fingers wandered up and down her thigh, and tickling the back of her knees which she found strangely satisfying. A few minutes of kissing passed as if it were more like a few seconds much to their disappointment, and they were alerted by the smell of burnt toast wafting around the air around them, so the kisses were abruptly ended, as Karen swiftly leaped up of Chris's lap and went to get the toast out quickly rescuing it, and grabbing the butter out the fridge, Chris getting up and standing behind her while she spread a thick layer of butter on each slice and plated Chris's, they both sat down at the kitchen table and ate away quickly, silenced for once. It was a little crunchy and they could tell if they'd left it any longer it would have been totally black all over but neither of them really minded.
"Right we'd better go then, are you going to get a jumper to put on over that, you'll freeze babe," Chris suggested as he attended the dishes and quickly rinsed them and placed them on the draining board.
"Yes I was planning to actually, but I left my favorite one down here last night when we came in," she said disappearing into the living room to find it while Chris got his jacket and boots on.
Once Karen had spent 10 minutes decided what shoes and coat to wear, she followed Chris out to the car and they drove off listening to the local radio, with the digital screen in the car reading an impressive 9:10, much earlier than they'd initially thought they were going to get out...
"See, it doesn't take you that long to get ready does it?" Chris said to Karen, they were both still surprised to not be running too madly late.
They were half way there and Karen had a looming thought that suddenly doomed on her. "I've forgotten my purse!"
"What do you need it for"
"I've got to go and pick Emma's dresses up! We're going to have to go back now, aw and we were doing so well!"
"Oh Karen, you could have thought about this earlier before we'd left, we're almost there and by the time we go all the way back, and then head off again, there's going to be loads of traffic around here and then we really will be late..." he said sighing heavily.
"Oh I'm sorry, you said you didn't mind being late anymore!" Karen snapped back at him, wondering why his mood had suddenly changed as they headed back, seeing the opposite side of the road begin to build up a bit of traffic. When they got back to the house Karen quickly ran in, grabbed her purse and headed out to the car, then realized that she'd been using her credit card last night to order the shoes online, so had to go back in once again, and then try and remember where she'd put it...
****
"Where the hell have you two been?!!" said a slightly annoyed Jayne, who had already started the rehearsals with the professional skaters; she'd found it difficult to try and explain to them the choreography by herself, she really needed Chris to help with all the partnered work!
More to come soon, probably tomorrow, hope it's not getting too boring!xxx
"Sorry Jayne we got held back..." Chris said not too convincingly as the pair of them sat at the side of the rink and got their skates on quickly.
"But we're here now!" Karen said happily trying to cheer Jayne up.
"Well hurry up and get on the ice then it's no good you being over there is it, that's not helping at all." The whole group paused whilst Karen and Chris got on the ice and waited for the music to start again as they went through the routine again, or what they'd managed to pick up of it, and Jayne and Chris demonstrated the whole thing, the rest of the pros trying to pick up as much more as they could just by watching and taking it all in, and Karen skated around helping them, seeing who needed help, and managed to demonstrate to the women pros the position they should be in in the man's arms quite a few times too... They worked hard for a couple of good solid hours and by the end of it the routine was perfected and Chris told everyone to take a break, mainly because he couldn't wait any longer to be with Karen again. He skated over to her, grabbed her hand and pulled her to the other side of the rink and as they climbed off, they had a little moment with their bodies pressed up closely together and intimately kissing for a few minutes, Chris mentally undressing Karen in front of his eyes, disappointed by the fact he couldn't do it for real... Their hands began to wonder each other's bodies too, and Chris's managed to make their way underneath Karen's jumper...
"Erm excuse me you two," Jayne said coming up behind them acting disgusted by their behavior, but couldn't help feeling jealous she didn't have Phil to have a good smooch with in the breaks.
"Oh what now Jayne..." Chris said impatiently, slowly breaking off his intense kisses with Karen, not happy that they'd been disturbed and interrupted again.
"Well unlike you, everyone else would actually like to get some work done..." she said gesturing towards the ice rink behind them.
"Well isn't there any work to be done in the office?" Chris thought tactfully.
"There is a bit actually that could use doing, I suppose you two want to go do that?" Jayne said seeing exactly where he was heading with that cheeky request... and Chris nodded eagerly. "Well if I let you go, you have to promise to actually have all the work done in the next two hours... understood?" Jayne said sternly, acting as if she were their mother.
"Yes, alright," they said in unison, Karen had now caught on to what Chris was planning and a smile had crept onto her face as she imagined the time they were about to spend alone with no interruptions...
yeah the box bit is coming... it's a bit me and TeamKarenBarber did in a fic we wrote one time... i think its quite funny, anyways i think the updates are gonna get longer now:P
Jayne quickly regretted teling Karen and Chris they could go work in the office by themselves, she knew they'd just be up to no good and of course there would be no sign of any work being done whatsoever, but the two of them were in such a lovey dovey, giggly mood now, they were only going to giggle, muck around, and just cause Jayne to get fustrated with them if they were to stay on the ice...
As Jayne skated gracefully back onto the ice, gathering the group together to discuss the rest of the day's plans, conversations were still going on between the rest of the pros, and nobody was really listening to poor Jayne at all, who was desperately trying to get all their attention, and really not having much luck.
"I thought Karen and Chris were just having a fling!" somebody asked Jayne, she wasn't even fully aware who it was, maybe Fred, or Michael?
"No, they're now in a rather stable relationship actually, a lot happened for both of them over the christmas break, and I suppose the situation has changed quite a bit since you lot last saw them," Jayne said, happy for her friends.
Meanwhile, in the so-called office, things were just about heating up.
"Do we have to actually do the work?" Karen complained as Chris struggled to unlock the door.
"Nope, well, I was planning something a little different anyway, but unless you want to...?" Chris told her cheekily, and finally unlocking the door and going inside.
"Of course I don't want to, you'd have to be bloody mad to actually, physically want to do it, even Jayne hates it!"
"I totally agree, its so dull... has to be done at some point though, doesn't it? Unfortunately..."
"Okay, so what have you got planned then?" Karen asked walking over to Chris who had, to her disappointment, gone straight to sit at the computer desk, and was impatiently (as usual) waiting for it to load up.
"Well you'll have to wait won't you?" he teased, and pulled her onto his lap as he loaded up a few files that needed completing. "You know we're quite lucky really, a lot of jobs involve a hell of a lot more paper work than this-" He was cut off by the sudden action of Karen's lips pressed against his.
"You said we weren't going to do the work," she said inbetween kissing him and moving her hands swiftly through his hair, and up and down his neck.
"I was just-" Karen cut him off again by pressing her finger against his lips to stop him talking, before continuing to passionately kiss him.
"Karen" Chris said through soft kisses getting more and more intimate. "the door-" "is open" he finally got out, and Karen took the information in, so still kissing each other, Chris picked Karen up, wrapping his arms around her carried her to the other side of the room, closing the door and then putting her down, pressing her up against the back of the office door and kissing her more and more. "I love you Mrs Barber" he whispered through kissing.
"I love you too I want you here... now... make love to me Dean..." Karen whispered back, but more fiercly and with a loving urgency in her voice.
"I want you too..." Chris continued, his hands now wandering up and down Karen's slight figure, her hands wandering muscular frame.
"I want you more and more every minute," Karen confessed, kissing more and more intently.
"I know me too..." Chris then slowly, still kissing Karen, lifted up her jumper and had to pause slightly to fling it across the room, and then continued with the intimacy, lifting up her top and his hands wandering the laciness of her bra. He took her top off over her head, and that too, was flinged across the room. They moved to the other side of the room, passionately making their way around the office, almost as if doing a sexy dance or a scene from a film, but they never wanted to part...
There was a knock at the door before Jayne let herself in, wandering what she would come across; Karen and Chris were totally unaware of course. Jayne cleared her throat, but still neither of them noticed her standing there, plainly watching them make out.
"Excuse me?!" she finally said in a disgusted tone, and slowly the two bodies drifted apart, but they were still standing real close, with a guilty yet innocent look on their faces...
"Do you want to explain yourselves?!" she continued on, not really knowing why she was so shocked, after all this is exactly what she'd expected to walk in on, maybe a little more passionately involved than she'd perhaps hoped.
"Sorry Jayne... we'll get the work done now, I'm sorry, won't happen again, promise, we're on it..." he apologized not so sympathetically, as if he was back at school apologizing to a teacher for not doing his work.
"I don't know why I let the pair of you in here alone, I knew it was stupid..." she mused, not knowing why she was about to walk out again and leave them alone once more. "Sorry Karen, I find it a little weird standing here telling you off and you staring up at me wearing nothing but your bra!"
"Ah well it's nothing you haven't seen before is it..." Karen replied then went over to get her top and started to put it back on under Jayne's stern look. Jayne then proceeded to get out all the documents and legal stuff from the filing cabinet in the corner of the room, and explained to Chris specifically what she wanted done by the next half hour, before returning to the rink.
"God she's stressy isn't she?" Chris mocked as soon as Jayne had left the room, causing Karen to let out a giggle.
"She's just jealous she doesn't have Phil, I do feel sorry for her at times you know..."
"Ah well I bet she gets all this when she gets home...now where were we..." Chris said pressing their bodies closer together again and proceeding to kiss her gently.
"I'm so lucky to have you Mr Dean..." Karen murmered through kisses, and her top came off again, and made its way to the other side of the room.
"What about me, what did I ever do to deserve such a stunning woman like you..."
They weren't kissing for as long this time, before Jayne came in again, this time to get her phone to ring Phil quickly about something she wanted him to pick up before she got home.
"For heavens sake you too!" she said really quite cross this time. "Karen, get your bloody top on! Now stop all this and actually get some work done or I'll be seperating you and I mean it ok!" she huffed and left the room for a second, and, surprise surprise, the kissing continued until she came back in... "Oh for **** sake, that's it now I mean it this time! Chris, out on the rink, help the celebrities with their routines that I've had to show them myself." she snapped angrily putting her phone back in her bag. "Karen, you're staying here, and I want all this work done within the next 25 minutes or they'll be huge trouble..." Jayne instructed strictly acting as her mother.
"Yes ma am..." Karen replied appropiately.
"Do you know where everything is?" Jayne made sure.
"Yep, pens, paper, other files..." she said pointing to where each thing was to prove her point.
"Okay I'll leave you to it then..." Jayne sighed and walked out, following Chris.
5 minutes later, Jayne came back rushing into the office. "Can you pass the first aid box please Karen, quick we've got blood here!" she said urgently.
"Yep," she replied not even looking to see who was injured, and searched around for the box.
"Oh come on we haven't got all bloody day!" Jayne said impateintly.
"I don't know where it is!"
"On top of the cupboard in the corner, come on Karen hurry up please just get the bloody box!"
"I can't reach it!" she complained as she stood on the toe picks of her skates trying to reach the box but not having any luck. "Hang on a second..." she said, going to find Chris to get him to reach it.
"No we don't have a second, oh for god's sake!"
A few seconds later, Karen and Chris come speeding through the door, and Jayne grunts in disaproval. "What are you doing here, I thought I told the pair of you to stay away from each other?"
"Look do you want this box or not?" Chris said ****ily and reaching up to pass Jayne the box.
"Right now thanks Chris, off you go again thank you!" Jayne demanded, but Chris still proceeding to pop another kiss on Karen's soft shiny lips before he walked out of the room to Jayne hitting him on the way out...
"Oi!"
"Okay, you should be okay to carry on now, just have a bit of rest for 5 minutes and then it'll be fine," Jayne instructed Maria, who'd just had a blade lightly jabbed into her calf, and been incredibly lucky it hadn't been more serious than a little cut. "Karen, back to work please honey." she said nodding at her as she left the room.
"Yep..." she sighed and typed out the rest of what needed filling in, and eventually Chris and Jayne both returned, it was finally time for their lunch break.
"Hey honey..." he said as he walked over to Karen and kissed her for a few seconds before Jayne broke them apart.
"Excuse me, could you please not do that while I'm in the room?"
"Oh god! I forgot, I've got to go and pick up the dresses! Emma will bloody kill me if I don't get there in time... oh god what even is the time? Am I already too late? What time did I say I had to be there for?" she said, panic setting into her voice.
"Oohhh, have you been wedding shopping?" asked Jayne a little excitedly.
"Yeah we went yesterday, me, Ems and Laura, we all went. We bought Ems' dress and she made me order the shoes online when we got back, but when it came to the bridesmaids dresses they were all out of stock, but they were due another delivery of them this morning... I just hope they're still there..."
Karen and Chris quickly rushed off to get in the car and drive to the shopping centre which was about 10 minutes away from the rink, and it was almost 2 o clock by the time they got there, Karen was hoping like mad the dresses were going to be there, ready and waiting for her, she was petrified she might have missed her chance and then Emma would be cursing her forever... or so she thought. She hurried into the shop while Chris opted to stay in the car, and rushed over to the counter, luckily it was the same lady in the shop who was there yesterday, so at least she knew who she was...
"Erm, excuse me..."
"Yes, how can I help?"
"I came by yesterday and bought a brides dress, and you said you were getting another batch of the bridesmaids dresses in today so I've come to collect them if that's okay... are they here?"
"Yes, they came at 10 this morning and I've been saving them for you ever since, it's a good job I remembered because my collegue almost sold half of them to someone else..." she said with a tang of guilt in her voice, as she disapeared into the stock to room to find Karen's dresses.
"Oh thank you so much," Karen gushed.
"Here they are..." she said producing the bridesmaids dresses to Karen, all wrapped up in a waterproof, plastic cover to protect them, and then Karen handed over her credit card, and carefully draped the dresses over her arms so she didn't crease them up.
"That was quick," Chris said as Karen opened the car boot and carefully laid the dresses flat.
"She had them all ready for me," she said happily. "Right how much time we got to kill?" she said flirtaciously kissing him as she got into the passenger seat next to him, and then adjusted the mirror so she could re-do her lippy.
"Well seeing as Jayne is pretty much already expecting us to be late... and she's already pretty mad with us I don't think it'd make much difference if we were a bit late back..." Chris said, and then kissed her back, spoiling her lippy again. "I don't know why you bother..." he said, and she laughed.
"Nor do I..." The kissing then became a little more intense as they sat in the car park having a nice little smooch, luckily it was a dimmed car park so no one could really see...
"Right I really think we better be heading back, don't you?" Karen said about half an hour/45 minutes later, not wanting to upset Jayne anymore than she already had that morning.
"Just a few more minutes.."
"Chris, your phone's ringing, I can feel it vibrating," Karen told him as they kissed and felt each other's bodies.
"Do you want me to answer it?"
"Not really but I suppose you'd better..." Karen sighed as the kissing slowed down and broke off.
"Urgh it's Jayne, she's really not happy with us is she..."
"Nope, and can you blame her really? I mean really?" Karen said as she took the phone out of Chris's hand and answered it for him.
"Hi Jayne"
"Karen, wherever you are, this is your 10 minute warning so you'd better make your way back over here please.." she kindly requested.
"Yep we're on our way back now, don't worry...see you in a few"
"Couple more minutes here then right?" Chris asked kissing her again.
"Yep..."
Back at the rink they really hadn't done too badly for time, they arrived just 10 minutes after the time they were supposed to be... 20 minutes after Jayne's 10 minute warning.
"Right you two, can I trust you now? I'm headed for the office for a few hours, that way some work actually might get done... I want you two to start teaching the group dance, the one with the celebs too, hear me? And I want it done by 5!" Jayne gave them clear instructions as Karen and Chris got their skates on, and Jayne took hers off, and changed into her comfy uggs, much more preferable.
Karen and Chris took to the ice and there were a few giggles amongst everyone else as they did, and a few of the pros sighed, thinking nothing was going to be done.
"Right, the song for this week's group performance is Raining Men..." Chris started, and then explained to them all about the different props and costumes that were going to be involved, most of them liked what they heard.
"Okay let's get started then..." Karen said, and she went through the first few bars of moves, this would open the first show of 2012 and it was really important that they got it right, so there was a lot of work to be done. The choreography was quite simple seeing as the competition had only just begun, but the standards were much higher than any other year and the skating was at a pretty impressive level, for just a couple of months training.
Jayne appeared a few hours later having completed all the work that needed doing, and Karen and Chris had surprisingly got through the whole routine. There had been lots of giggles, but they'd done it, and that was the main thing, they'd certainly surprised Jayne for one thing.
"Well done guys, you all did fantastic today! See you tomorrow!" Chris said and then left the ice, hand in hand with Karen, and went to speak to Jayne.
"You don't need us this weekend do you?" Chris checked with Jayne.
"Well no not really, most of the couples will just be working on their individual routines and not all at this rink either, why what you planning?"
"Oh nothing, I just wanted to check I ws free that's all.." he said rather secretively, much to Karen's disappointment because she hated secrets, and Chris hadn't mentioned anything to her...
"What are we doing at the weekend then?" Karen asked trying to get it out of him as they walked out to the car with their bags in the dark wintery sky.
"Oh nothing you need to know about..." he said with a cheeky sound to his voice.
"Are you taking me somewhere?" Karen asked eagerly, getting a bit excited.
"Well maybe, I guess you'll just have to wait and see won't you...I'm not saying a word, let's just say I've got it covered..." he said. He'd secretly been planning a weekend away for both of them for a few weeks now, just a little break before all the real work began with Dancing on Ice on the tv and everything, this would be their last chance to get some proper time to themselves and he was definately planning to make the most of it...
"Oh thanks so much for getting these mum, you're a bloody life saver!" Emma exclaimed excitedly as Karen walked through the front door with the dresses safely in her arms, and Chris followed her in behind. Emma had been waiting for about half an hour since she got back from work for the dresses to arrive, she couldn't wait to see them!
"Laura!" she called up the stairs to her sister so had not long been home either.
"Yeah?" she said trudging down the stairs reluctantly.
"You and mum have to try your dresses on!" said Emma excitedly.
"Oh Emma I know you're excited but can't you wait a bit, just until we get settled I've literally just walked through the door!"
"Okay, sorry..." she said more quietly, taking the dresses from Karen's arms and taking them upstairs with Laura.
"I'll be up in 5 minutes okay? Just let me put the kettle on"
"Do I get to see you in this beautiful dress then?" Chris said excitedly.
"Yep you do... I want you to take a picture of me and Laura in them okay?"
"Yep ma am, you'd better go up then hadn't you, I'll put the kettle on, call me up when you're ready?" he said as he hung his coat up.
Karen ran up the stairs daintily to Emma's room and brought the dresses into her own bedroom, and Laura and Emma followed her in. Laura got the dress on first and luckily it fitted like a glove, it was a perfect fit on Karen too. They both looked beautiful in them, and they came to just above the knee.
"Hang on a second..." Karen said, and she went to go and get two pairs of shoes, silver diamante sandles and passed a pair to Laura, and they matched the dress perfectly.
"Chris!" she called as she went out to the landing to call him up the stairs, with the camera.
"You look beautiful baby..." he said as soon as he saw her and gave her a quick kiss. "Pose then both of you!"
"It's lovely..." Chris said looking at the picture on the screen and admiring his beautiful lover.
The next day of training dragged on for both Karen and Chris, Chris more so as he knew what he was waiting for, Karen just knew Chris had planned something special, and she couldn't wait to find out what. When they day was finally over, they got out of the rink by 3, and Chris drove them home in Karen's car, instructed her to pack a bag for a weekend away, but he still wouldn't tell her where they were going. He'd already packed her a bag secretly the night before, and then regretted it so he told her just to go and check what he'd packed was okay. All Karen did was add in a bit more make up and an extra cardigan, then rushed downstairs to meet Chris by the door.
"I'm so excited baby!" she said wrapping her arms around his neck and holding on tight as he swept up her legs and carried her out to the car, putting all the luggage in the boot. By 4pm they were off on the road and Karen had still no idea where they were going.
"So when are you going to tell me what all this is about, and where you're whisking me off to?" Karen asked excitedly.
"I'm not telling you still..." he teased. "You'll just have to wait until we get there won't you, I promise you'll like it..."
An hour later Karen was still bugging Chris about telling her where they were going, she genuinely had no idea, except the part that they were heading out of town and towards the country.
"Here we are honey..." Chris said finally after an hour and a half journey it had now got a lot colder and was dark out, but Karen was excited to find out where Chris had taken her.
Chris pulled up the car outside this great big house, which looked really special just from the outside. The front door was smaller than the average door and it kind of reminded Karen of an old fashioned cottage type place from the outside, with a rose bush out the front and ivy climbing up one side of the house; it also had a thatched roof and two chimneys.
"This is beautiful Chris," Karen told him and gave him a kiss while they sat in the car for a few seconds.
"We've got the whole place to ourselves until Sunday evening..."
"Really? How? How did you even find out about this place?"
"Well let's just say I know some people..." Chris said still being quite secretive. "Shall we go inside?"
"Course" Karen replied and got out the car and got her bags from the boot and Chris got his, they walked hand in hand up to the door and Chris whipped out a set of keys to let themselves in, which Karen had never seen before. There was a small hallway in front of them as Chris opened the door, where a shoe cupboard was and a few pegs for coats, so they hung their things up. Then they went through the door where there was another small hallway with a mirror along one wall, Karen glanced at her reflection and quickly smoothed down her hair before following Chris through to the main living room, which was rather large and had an open fire, with another big decorative mirror hanging above the fireplace, and a large open bay window out to a beautiful country view, which Karen immediately adored. Chris put the fire on to heat up the room a bit seeing as there seemed to be a bit of a draft coming through. Still carrying their bags, they went through to the next room which was a lovely open plan kitchen, very similar to one Karen had always wanted, complete with a breakfast bar in the middle. They continued through the back room which was very light and open, compared to the more closed in and cosy front room, and a little warmer in there too. Leading off from the back room was the wooden stairs, which they went up and found two huge bedrooms, one with a single bed and pastel walls, and another one with a big double bed with crisp, clean sheets laid out for them. Confetti hearts were sprinkled all over the room for them and it was all incredibly romantic, and Karen was falling in love with it. They put their bags down in the corner of the room and broke into a romantic kiss, standing in the middle of the room, then moving over towards the bed, and eventually falling back onto it.
"This is amazing Chris... thank you, thank you so much," she said gratefully, and continued kissing him, and kicking her shoes off.
"You're incredibly welcome..." he said in between soft kisses. "I thought we could both use a break before the show started..." he mused, letting his hands wonder Karen's body again.
"Yes we certainly could... I can't believe it's only a week to go!"
They continued having their romantic moments for the next hour, and both of them were certainly enjoying themselves already, and to think they had a whole weekend of this luxury place all to themselves...
"What do you say we find somewhere to go out for dinner?" Chris suggested. Karen was tired from working and then the drive over here, and didn't really fancy the idea of having to get all dressed up and ready to go out somewhere; the idea of a nice quiet night in, snuggling up in front of the cosy fire, seemed much more appealing to her at that moment, but of course she didn't want to hurt Chris with her decision.
"Actually... I was thinking we could have a nice relaxing evening..." she trailed off to hear Chris's view on her opinion.
"Okay babe, whatever you like..." he said tickling her gently, making her giggle.
"It will be much more fun than having to get all dressed up, won't it?" she said with a cheekiness in her voice as she sat up, leaning on her elbow with her cheek leaning against her hand, and she moved her leg up over Chris.
"Oh it's going to be one of those kinds of relaxing evenings is it?" he said cheekily back, and put his arms around her and kissed her again. "Shall we eat first? I don't know about you but I'm bloody starving... then we can have some fun," he suggested.
"okay" she happily agreed and they both got up giggling to each other about nothing in particular, and they managed to find some food in the cupboards and do a make shift dinner with what they found, and ate greedily, they hadn't eaten since breakfast, they never thought to stop for lunch.
"Shall we see what's on tv tonight then" Karen suggested taking Chris's hand to lead him away from the washing up. "Come on you don't have to do that now do you, let's go and relax... we'll sort everything out before we leave on Sunday, then we don't have to worry about anything else do we..."
They sat close enough they may as well have been on top of each other, and Karen was snuggled right into Chris's body, her head resting on his shoulder, and occasionally they'd look up at each other and stare into each other's eyes romantically, have a quick smooch and then go back to half watching whatever was on the television. An hour or two later they'd both woken up a lot more, but especially Karen, she began to get a little more playful, much to Chris's delight. She started off just kissing him, then placing soft kisses on his cheek, down his neck, and back to his lips, and then he'd continue and do the same to Karen, and they got closer and closer together until Karen was actually sitting on his lap, and Chris's hands were one minute through her soft, hair and then making their way down her body and feeling around inside her top...
"What do you say we move this to the bedroom?" Chris suggested.
"Ohh yes" Karen replied and Chris carried her back up to the beautiful bedroom and practically threw her down on the bed, and climbed on top of her, kissing her body all over.
"I love you Christopher" she said, a rarity of using his full name, but somehow she made it sound sexy...
"I love you baby too" he said pleasuring her greatly and then slowly taking off her top, the temptation to just lick her whole body was getting too much for him, he continued kissing her passionately, and moved the kisses to her chest, he was having all the fun.
"OK its my go now you've had your fun" Karen said in a seductive tone and straddled over him, and placed kisses on his chest, ripping his t-shirt away from his body...
Hope you like it so far, there will probably be more updates later seeing as i dont have much else to do!
