[Francesca is in the driver's seat and doing significantly more work, but this is a particularly intense second session and even Nate is feeling it. Almost woozy in a good way, completely lovesick but not spent yet. He grumbles adoringly as her tits jiggle against his face, hands skimming up her as a form of tactile praise.

He curses like he's in pain when she clenches and grips him. It doesn't take long for him to follow. He grips her face through it, kissing her deeply and bucking his hips up under her.

He softly declares his love and they collapse into a pile of limbs.

As predicted, the scope of the honeymoon shifts but the purpose is still fulfilled. They spend many happy days overseas, planning ahead and thinking of what they need to do when they get home. Francesca feels particularly tired, dozing off more during the day and earlier at night. Nate is her go-to surface for sleeping and spends a lot of time pretending he's comfortable and staying still.

The first check-ups are promising. She seems well despite her fatigue. Nate is a little concerned when she wants to continue with school, but he understands the logic. They get into a routine of coming together and discreetly going seperate ways. It is distracting to have her in his class, knowing there's a secret both between them and growing inside her. It's hard not to fuss over her or touch her, but he manages.

She's been suffering with nausea intermittently, so he's alarmed but not terribly surprised when she asks him to come to her. It is rather a precarious request, since she wants him in the bathroom. His gut twinges, but he aims to be calm as he enters. Blessedly, it is empty aside from her stall.]


Is that you in there?

[If it's not, this will be hard to explain.]

[In these moments, it is both a blessing and a curse to have lived the life he has. It enables him to face this with a levelhead and a calm demeanour, but it has also has entirely obliterated his ability to hope for a good outcome.

Of course, there's a world of difference between the trauma of strangers and the trauma of his incredibly precious wife. He can feel a tremble building in him that he actively pushes down.]


You're alright, Bambi.

[He keeps his voice steady, brushing his fingers over her cheek in reassurance. He wriggles out of his coat, wrapping it around her as he scoops her up off the ground.

He ghosts his lips over her temple, feeling melancholic echoes of the way they came back together in the rain. He runs her out of the bathroom, warning anyone about the mess is far from his mind. He manoeuvres her into the truck, whipping around to his side so he can rally them out of the parking lot and straight to hospital.

It's hard to keep his eyes on the road, flicking his eyes to her every so often.]


Deep breaths, bambi.

[In order to temper his reaction, Nate clenches his fingers around the steering wheel until his knuckles are white. It's hard to even process it, since the dominant side of his brain is telling him he just needs to get her to hospital.

But he picks up on the pronoun and casts a worried look to her. They're so close to hospital-- but he knows she's not look to be soothed or placated. He just nods, pausing before adding:]


It's you I'm worried about. [She's lost a lot of blood and he knows she's in tremendous pain.

They pull into the emergency parking and he scoops her up. Blessedly, they're attended to almost as soon as they're in the doors. That never happens, so it's not good.

She needs to be anaesthetised. He waits with her as long as he's allowed (and probably beyond that, to be honest). When she comes to, he's sitting at her bedside just staring ahead at the wall.]

[He doesn't quite jolt, but he does snap back to reality when she rouses. He turns, scooting his chair closer toward her and smoothing his hand over her hair.]

Hi Bambi. [Softly. She's groggy, he doesn't want to jump right into things.]

We're at the hospital. You've been under anaesthetic.

[There's a long pause, which answers the question implicitly. His hand moves to hers, looping their fingers and squeezing softly.]

Yeah. We lost him. [We, not her. It's not her fault. There's a threadiness to his voice that is unusually vulnerable for him. He brings her fingers to his lips, holding them there.]

I'm so sorry, Bambi.

[The limpness of her fingers is noted. In any other situation, he'd give her space. Now? It feels important to make sure she knows she's not alone in this.

Surprisingly limber for his age, he steps out of his shoes and scoots onto the bed with her. He cradles the back of her head with his hand, inviting her to move in closer or stay as is.

His jaw tightens at the question, because he knows why she's asking and it hurts to think about. He can't make those feelings just go away.]


He wasn't developing properly.

[It was difficult to get information from the staff, who initially thought he was her father and were unconvinced of their marital status. In another situation, he might have found it funny.]

It's a game of odds, they were against us this time-- but it happens, bambi. Happens to all kinds of couples.

[It's not dismissive, he's mourning too.]

[There's nothing Nate can say to make this better. Nothing makes it better, it's just something they'll have to endure. But he hates that for her. If he could, he'd take it on himself.

He's eager to get her home, even if there's parts of it that are difficult for both of them. Little things that remind him of their loss. He lets her sleep as much as she likes, but he makes her eat and he starts to ease her into sitting in the garden with him to get some sun.

They bury their baby in the garden, somewhere safe with a young tree planted atop the remains.

After a week, he surprises her with two highland calves. It's something they'd discussed and he feels like she could use the joy and the focus. It's the first time he's seen her smile since that day, which makes him hopeful for her.

Unsurprisingly, there are physical and mental barriers around sex that he's respectful of. He wants to be lead by her, so there's been one or two times in 3 weeks where he's engaged her with his fingers or his mouth, but she struggles to finish. It's certainly a change of pace, going from the kind of sex life they had before to this period. He understands it to be temporary, but he still needs to relieve himself when he gets a moment.

It becomes tricky not to be amorous when she comes out of her shell more. He's so in love with her and every part of him aches for her all the time. Every brush against him makes him eager, but he's still allowing her to lead.

On a pleasant afternoon after spending some time in the garden, Francesca bends to look at a flower. Her dress hitches and the curve of her ass is visible. His hand moves instinctively to grab a handful of her backside, squeezing firmly and suggestively. Although at some point he realises he's being forward, he lets his hand linger. Just to see how she reacts.]

[The freeze is just long enough that Nate nearly pulls away and apologises for getting fresh with her. That thought makes him pause, because it's so contrary to the way they've been before.

He can see the uncertainty in her eyes and realises, perhaps, he's given her mixed signals by slowing things down instead of guiding her. It makes him more resolute, wanting to encourage her rather than fussing over her. He circles his arm around her waist, pulling her back against him so he can brush his lips up her neck and murmur in her ear]


Always hungry for you, Bambi. [And he nearly tries to seek obvious interest or consent from her but he bites it back, turning it into an order.]

I want you naked, on all fours on the bed when I get up stairs. [He pulls back, smacking her ass as he walks away.]

I'm going to lock up.

[Nate plays his role with confidence, though inside there's a little niggling uncertainty about whether she'll like it. He can never fully shut off the part of him that worries about her.

His heart races as he gets closer to the bedroom, but he keeps his gait casual. He says nothing when he walks in the room to see her. He feels a tiny flutter of glee just knowing she's still interested.

He peels his shirt off, coming to walk around her so he can grab her chin and tilt her face up to look at him.]


Good girl. [He bends down, kissing her deeply before standing back up.]

Open your mouth, stick out your tongue for me.

[It's a little test to see how game she really is. The way she thrusts her tongue out is very promising, reminiscent of the power-play they engage in when they're really egging each other on.

He doesn't hide his pleased look (sometimes he'll stay stoic to rile her up more). It's a non-verbal good girl. He cups her face, pressing his thumb firmly on her chin and dragging her bottom lip down. He leans in, taking his time to turn her head so he can visually inspect her. With one hand on her chin, he uses the other hand to trace his fingers around the inside of her lips and mouth and the tip of her tongue.

With his fingers curled on the tip of his tongue, he looks her in the eye.]


Suck.

[personal profile] sodark 2025-06-02 02:00 am (UTC)(link)
[So far, so good. She's not as openly receptive as she normally would be, but he's not sensing discomfort. He hums as she sucks at his fingers, cock firming up all the more as he watches her. His fingers withdraw and he guides her face to press against the outline of his cock, so she can feel how hard he is.

His hand slides under her, taking her breast in his hand and kneading it.]


I want to make you feel good. Fuck you good. [His cock twitches under her cheek, eager.]

I want you so wet you drip. [Which has been something of a difficulty, but he's confident if he takes charge and takes time, he'll find her pleasure again. He pulls back with a meaningful look. He needs a towel and lube-- he can work her up to being wet with encouragement.

When he returns, he reaches under her to tuck the towel on the bed. They're going to need it. He lubes his fingers and warms them, wanting everything to feel good for her when he touches her.]


Face down, ass up.

[He reaches under again, this time running his fingers over the lips of her pussy. He starts light, exploring over the shapes and folds before circling his finger over her clit.]

Every part of you is perfect. And it's mine.

[He can intuit that she's fretting inside, but she's doing incredibly well in his eyes. He pets her backside with his other hand, dragging his thumb over her ass cheek and spreading her a little more.

Still, this is his favourite place and his favourite thing. He loves her soft, pink cunt. Loves having his mouth and fingers there. He feels impossibly thirsty for it and he wants to lap at her cunt and bury his face in it.

Small steps.]


Feels nice, bambi.

[He doesn't want to tell her to relax, she knows what she needs to do and if it were that easy, she would. He needs to relax her. He presses a thick finger inside her and feels her walls clench in resistance. He doesn't panic, pumping his finger in and out of her slowly.]

[Nate can feel her getting wetter, warmer against his fingers. It's enough to make him drool, especially when she arches and sways. Her ass looks very tempting, as much as it did when he grabbed it the first time.

He curls his finger in her, working her up to a second. His other hand skims under her to squeeze her breast, pinching a nipple.]


Your body makes me fucking crazy. [Which she knows by now, but he wants her to know the depth of it as he pumps two fingers in and out of her.]

When you came out in your little dress this morning, I wanted to bend you over the table and bury my cock in you. [He squeezes her breast firmly, like he's scolding her for being beautiful.]

Been thinking about your pussy all day.
