Chapter Nineteen

Touching down in Newark Intl at 11am local time, they hopped in a waiting car and headed for the farm to drop Jenn off. Jon still somewhat disgruntled at his lack of action on the flight was immediately busy on his cell phone and left the two girls to chat amongst themselves. Watching him flick from one call to another, Jenn shook her head in amazement. Steph noticing laughed and rolled her eyes.

“Meet my dad the rock star aka the workaholic! He gives out that I spend too much time on my cell - he’s never off his!”

Jenn laughed and shrugged her shoulders,

“Guess he’s a busy guy!”

“I just count myself lucky he’s here! When he starts working with the guys again I’ll forget what he looks like!” Steph smiled a little ruefully.

“Does it bother you?”

The younger girl ran her hands through her hair and sighed,

“Nope, not really. I mean yeah it sucks when we don’t see each other that much but I guess I grew up with it.” Pausing she grinned and winked at Jenn, “Plus he makes up for it when he is around!” and rubbed her fingers together, “Kick ass presents!”

Jenn laughed and sat back to think. She couldn’t imagine what life growing up for Steph and her siblings was like. She came from an ordinary family with ordinary jobs, both her parents had always been home. If she and Jon carried on seeing one another, was he really going to be around that much?

A little while later they pulled up outside the guest house behind the barn. Jon grabbed Jenn’s bags and headed inside with them while Steph ran off to see everyone in the stables. As soon as they were in the hallway with the door shut, Jon dropped the bags and spun around to grab Jenn. Wrapping his arms around her waist, effectively pinning her arms to her side, he whispered wickedly;

“No excuses this time baby!”

She giggled and made no effort to resist him as he crushed his lips to hers, devouring her in a hungry kiss. Returning the kiss with all of her might, she wrapped a leg high around his thigh. Breaking apart they gasped for breath as he released her arms and delved under her tank top. Jenn braced herself against the wall and threw her other leg around his hip, grinding herself against him. She squirmed in delight as his fingers found her nipples.

“Jesus Jenn, I want you so bad baby”, his whisper came in ragged breaths as she kneaded the muscles at the back of his neck. Her response was swallowed by his mouth once more, their tongues dancing together and tasting one another. She could feel his rock hard erection straining against her through his combats as she squeezed tighter with her legs. Moaning she threw her head back as Jon moved one hand down past her panties, seeking out the heat that was exuding from between her legs.

“Oh Christ!”, she gasped, feeling his thumb graze the sensitive nub and impulsively rocked against him. He growled and pushed deeper letting her muscles clench his fingers when they were suddenly interrupted by the house phone ringing loudly on the wall beside Jenn’s ear.

“Fuck!”, she exclaimed loudly looking at the intrusion in disgust.

“Leave it!”, Jon grunted nibbling on her ear.

“No, no could be important!”, gasping she slid down to the floor, her legs threatening to give away beneath her weight.

“Hello?”, her breaths came in quick short gasps as Jon bit down on her ear lobe.

“Hey Jenn! Thought I saw a car go round back! Welcome back!” enthused Paul on the other end. “Is this a bad time?”

Couldn’t be worse timing she thought grimly. Jon was refusing to give up and his hand had snaked between her legs once more making her quiver and shake.

“No, no problem Paul, just in the door s’all!”, she suppressed a giggle as her assailant continued his exploration on her inner parts.

“Oh good….look I know you’re just back but I’ve been trying to reach you on your cell all morning”

“Oh crap! Sorry it’s still switched off in my bag somewhere.”

“Yeah, well thing is Jenn……..”, Paul’s voice was serious now, “I’m real sorry to land this on you but there’s some people here to see you…..”

“To see me? Who?” Jenn pushed Jon away to cradle the phone better and he finally relented hearing the change in her voice from relaxed to concerned.

“Erm…..Steve’s parents…….I’m sorry they just showed up last night and when I said you’d be back tomorrow they stayed over……….. They really want to see you Jenn.”

She felt her heart skip a few beats and all the colour drained from her face as she took in what she’d just heard.

Steve’s parents? Here? Oh God!

Chapter Eighteen

After a ridiculously early start, all three were safely ensconced in the spacious first class cabin of the Boeing 747 headed for New York. Glancing out the window, Jenn fought back the tears as the plane steadily rose above the clouds until the last views of Dublin Bay slid out of sight. Sighing heavily she snapped the blind shut on the window and rested her head back. As much as she enjoyed working abroad, every time she had to leave her home country it seemed that much harder. She would always be a home bird at heart and right now her heart was aching at leaving behind her family and friends once more. Her parents were both now in their early seventies and it was becoming painfully clear to her that they wouldn’t be around for ever.

Pushing any further morbid thoughts from her mind before she burst into tears there and then, she reached into the pocket in front of her and retrieved the in-flight magazine. Beside her Steph was doing the same her ipod earphones plugged firmly in her head. Jon sat in the aisle seat in front of his daughter and Jenn could still detect the faintest trace of a scowl on his face. Smiling to herself she continued thumbing through the magazine. She knew the reason for his grumpy mood. When checking in she had made quite sure that she wouldn’t be sitting beside him for the flight. Jon had been less than pleased that his plans for his own form of in-flight entertainment had been scuppered. Jenn had known exactly what he would have been up to throughout the long journey and pleasurable as it may have sounded, there was no way in hell that she was chancing anything with Steph sitting less than five feet from them!

Once breakfast had been cleared away, she pulled out her laptop and started going over plans with Steph for the horses they’d bought. In four weeks time, barring no problems, the four horses should have cleared quarantine and be safely installed in the barn that Jon had leased from Paul. Steph was relatively inexperienced when it came to actually training horses, especially novice ones and engrossed herself in the schedules that Jenn had laid out. As it was now the middle of September, she hoped to have both Steph and the horses progressed far enough by January that they could head down to Ocala in Florida for the spring to start competing. Steph was giddy with excitement and after an hour of answering questions Jenn was mentally exhausted.

“Alright, alright! Lets see if you’re still so enthusiastic in two months time! I’m telling you now Steph, this is not gonna be an easy ride! You haven’t seen me in action yet and I can be pretty hard to please.” she warned her gently.

Steph calmed down and nodded, “I know! I just can’t wait to get started!”

Jenn smiled and stowed her laptop away. Steph reminded her so much of herself as a teenager, willing to do anything if it meant climbing the ladder. There had been a time when she too had never entertained a negative thought about anything - how things have changed she mused.

After a quick trip to the bathroom, she returned to her seat to find Steph fiddling with the personal t.v screen. Squeezing past her to drop back down in her seat, she leaned over to see what the problem was. A blank screen indicated a definite lack of power somewhere and Steph threw her arms up in frustration.

“Arrghhh! Typical!”, she muttered furiously. Before Jenn could offer any help, Steph leaned forward around the seat in front of her and poked a semi-sleeping Jon in the arm.

“Dad! Will you swap seats with me? My t.v’s busted!”

Quick as a flash Jon jumped up out of his seat;

“Sure honey!”, a broad grin plastered across his face as he flashed a victorious look at Jenn.

“Steph you can swap with me!!”, she blurted out quickly but Steph was already sidling past her father into his empty seat.

Jon flopped down beside Jenn and looked triumphantly at her, an impish smirk developing at the side of his mouth;

“Hey neighbour!! How ya doin?”

‘Oh God! I’m doomed!’, Jenn thought as she glared back at him. Just the way he was looking at her already had a warm flush creeping up her neck. She shot him a warning look and then smiled sweetly pulling out her eyemask;

“Time for a nap I think!” smirking herself as the smile vanished from his face, she snapped the elastic over her head and settled back to snooze.

Jon stared at her incredulously. ‘She can not be serious? Hmmph! She wants to play hard ball huh!’ Standing up, he retrieved a blanket from the overhead compartment and leaned over Jenn’s seat. Laying it lightly across her he fought back a grin as he felt her startle beneath him.

“Just making you comfortable Madam!”, he imitated in his best British accent. With a furtive glance about the cabin to make sure no-one was watching, Steph included, he leaned lower and blew gently on her neck. She stiffened instantly as the hairs stood up on her skin. Pursing her lips, she refused to let herself move, praying he would give up before someone noticed. Shivering she felt him tuck the blanket around her, his fingers discreetly brushing the curve of her breasts, pausing to squeeze only slightly as continued down her legs to her feet.

“Tut, tut!”, he whispered, “Madam should really not sleep with her shoes on. Not good for one’s circulation!”

Grasping her ankles, he eased off her trainers and lightly tickled the undersides of her toes. Jenn could contain herself no longer and squealed, jerking her knees up towards her chin. Unfortunately, Jon’s head didn’t quite get out of the way quick enough and her right knee hit him square under his chin with a loud crack as bone met bone.

“Fuck!”, he moaned as he slumped back on his seat, rubbing his jaw furiously.

“Shit! Sorry!” Jenn scrambled to sit up straight and tore off her mask, convinced she’d done serious damage. He waggled his jaw from side to side and found everything in working order albeit a bit tender. Seeing no harm was done, Jenn smirked and leaning towards him whispered in his ear;

“Serves you right asshole! Behave yourself and nobody gets hurt!” and winking at him, lay back and replaced her eye mask, grinning all the while.

Jon smiled to himself and shook his head ruefully. She was a live wire that was for sure! Resigning himself to the fact that he wasn’t going to get any action on this flight anyway, he closed his own eyes still massaging his bruised jaw. Might as well sleep if nothing better was on offer!

Chapter Seventeen

Dinner was a somewhat muted affair with both ladies present at the table grimly pushing their food around the plates. Jon had attempted to make light conversation as they waited on their orders but had given up when he had gotten nothing more than tight smiles and curt nods from both of them. When the waiter offered dessert, all of them declined with Steph failing miserably to stifle a yawn.

“You must be wrecked after today Steph! Long day huh?” Jenn gave her a subtle wink.

She laughed nervously and nodded, “Yeah, think all the Irish country air has got the better of me! Actually if you guys don’t mind I might head upstairs. I’ve still got a bit of packing to do before I go to bed.”

“Good idea honey, I’ll be up after you in a bit.” Jon smiled at his daughter as she left the table.

Jenn wished her goodnight and fiddled nervously with the watch on her wrist. Jon looked towards her and nudged her ankle gently with his foot under the table.

“Nightcap?”

She breathed in deeply through her nose and let it out between her lips to try and quell the rising nerves deep in the pit of her stomach.

“Definitely! I need to have a talk with you anyway……..” Glancing around her at the other diners she added “……in private.”

Jon noted the grim determination edged on her face and reckoned he wasn’t gonna like whatever the thoughts were that were swirling around Jenn’s head.

“Sure thing - your room?”

She nodded feeling relief at the fact that at least she wouldn’t have to worry about anymore rumours being circulated. Somebody had obviously been watching them the past few nights. Walking out of the dining room in front of him, she tensed momentarily as she felt his hand touch the small of her back. “Breathe baby, breathe”, she heard him murmer softly behind her. Swallowing hard she lead them over to the elevator, Jon never lifted his hand away once as they rode in silence up the floors. It was only after Jenn had let them into her room and closed the door firmly behind them that she started to speak.

“Jon, look I’m sorry about……..”

He moved in swiftly, wrapping a hand around the back of her neck and crushing her lips to hers, effectively cutting off any speech Jenn had planned. Unable to help herself, she closed her eyes and relaxed against him, curling her arms around his muscular back. Her knees wobbled as his tongue gently prised her lips apart and probed her own. Never breaking apart for a second, he manoeuvred them over to the bed until the back of Jenn’s legs just touched the throwback. Letting his hands trail past her shoulders down to the gentle curve of her bosum, he began placing butterfly kisses down the length of her neck, sucking slightly at the spot where he knew her pulse was beating wildly. She drew in her breath sharply and threw her head back as his thumbs grazed her nipples through the thin fabric of her dress.

“Oh God, Jon……..”

“Ssshh baby”, he crooned as his hands slipped around her back and eased the dress zipper down to just above the base of her ass. Tracing a finger lightly down her spine, Jenn gave a small cry and let herself fall back on the soft mattress as a jolt of electricity passed through her body. Jon moved with her pushing his knee high up between her thighs as he hovered above her. Leaning back he slowly slipped the straps of her dress free of her body. She watched him through darkly hooded eyes as the material fell away to expose her heaving, bra-less chest. As his head bent down to suckle on one of her rigid nipples she ran her fingers through his thick hair, tugging softly as he nibbled. Raising her hips she allowed him to tug the rest of her dress down her body past her panties. Lifting a leg she wriggled out of it, gasping as a hand cupped the throbbing lips between her legs. Feeling his fingers slide under the scrap of lace, her pelvis bucked involuntarily. She was more than ready for him and Jon smiled as his fingers met with a slick trickle of fluid. Deciding he’d taken things slow enough he plunged two fingers deep inside, stretching her to the limit. A scream escaped Jenn’s lips as her hips shot off the bed and she nearly yanked a fistful of his hair out.

“Yeouch woman!”, he grinned up at her raising his lips from her breasts momentarily.

“Sorry but oooooohh……” Yet again she was unable to finish her sentence as he mercilessly added a third finger and dove deep inside her tight walls. Pumping strongly in and out of her, he felt his fingers being sucked in as the tight muscles clenched around them and Jenn screamed her release. Feeling the waves subside he sat up and withdrew his hand taking her panties with him. She lay gasping for air, gripping the duvet tightly and watched as he unbuckled his belt, threw off his jacket and pulled off his shirt all in one seemingly smooth movement. Raising herself up on her elbows, Jenn took in the very noticeable bulge protruding behind his tightly fitted shorts. Sitting up she pulled him to her and looked straight up into his eyes, hooking her fingers inside the elastic band. Now it was Jon’s turn to suck in his breath sharply as she released him from the fabric prison and his cock sprang free and straight into her waiting mouth. Groaning he looked down into her seemingly unblinking eyes as she swirled her tongue around the engorged tip, tasting the fluid which was rapidly gathering there.

Suddenly feeling the impending rush at the base of his shaft he pulled his hips back and gently pushed her back on the bed once more. Surprising him, he watched as she flipped beneath him propping herself up on her knees. With her hair tousled messily in heaped waves around her face she looked back over shoulder and lowered herself down onto her elbows. Jon needed no further enticement and grasping her hips on either side, entered her quickly and deeply in one swift thrust. A muffled moan came from the woman beneath him as she buried her face in the soft comforter. Meeting each other thrust for thrust, beads of sweat trickled off Jon’s brow as his breathing grew more laboured and his legs began to tremble. Bracing himself on her back, they met in one final crescendo. This time Jenn lifted her head and screamed aloud. Never before had she felt a man fill her so completely and she felt her insides melt away as stars exploded in the depths of her brain. Jon buried to the hilt released his warm load within her and collapsed on her back, their sweat slicked bodies embracing each other in the heat of passion.

They lay like that for several moments, neither able to move a muscle even if they wanted to. As both their breathing started to even out, Jon kissed the back of her neck softly and whispered in her ear,

“You’re incredible baby, you know that?”

Jenn smiled and twisted to face him, gasping in pleasure as she felt him slide out of her.

“You’re pretty incredible yourself!”

Sidling up beside her he pulled the tendrils of hair that were glued to her face from sweat and pushed them back across her forehead. Kissing her sweetly, he gazed deep into her wide eyes.

“I know you’re scared baby, hell I’m scared a bit myself but I believe in this. This ain’t a fling Jenn and I’m not gonna hurt you.” Pausing he sighed and caressed her cheek with the back of a hand, “I’m not gonna lie to you, it won’t be all plain sailing but if you trust me, we’ll get through it - one day at a time okay?”

Jenn felt her heart pounding in her chest as he spoke. His blue eyes gazed at her with such sincerity she couldn’t help but believe him. Swallowing she spoke slowly,

“I freaked out today Jon. I heard a bunch of stuff on the radio and well I just…….freaked! This has all happened so fast that I felt like I was out of control and I’m not used to feeling that way.”

Her eyes filled with tears, emotions threatening to overwhelm her.

“Sssh baby, please don’t cry.” he wiped away her tears with his thumbs. “I don’t know where we’re headed darlin’ but I’m sure as hell willing to find out………come with me Jenn, lets find out together.”

She reached up and kissed him softly on the lips. “I don’t think I’ve got a choice, my heart’s already gone on without me”, she whispered.

Grinning he rolled over on his back so she was straddling him. Squeezing her waist gently he gazed up at her flushed face.

“You better catch up with it quick then woman before I steal it for good!”
