Rift Avoided

            Ever since the attack in Germany, Kevin has been waiting on me hand and foot and treating me like a queen, but I notice that he seems to be distant. We aren’t talking like we normally would. Kevin will just speak to me whenever he feels it is necessary. I continually try to ask Kevin what the problem is, but he always brushes it off.

            It is now the last concert date in Europe, and I am determined to find out what is wrong with Kevin. I find him in the room pacing around the room. When the fans heard about my attack there has been an outpouring of love towards her and Kevin is having trouble deciding what to say to the crowd about it, the concert will be simulcast in the US, and all over Europe. He gives me what I feel is a faked smile, when I walk into the room. I sit down on the bed, and say, “Kevin I think we have to talk about some things before you leave tonight.”

            “I don’t have the time to talk right now,” Kevin says quickly.

            “Kevin, you’re going to make the time to talk. Ever since Jason got his paws on me things just haven’t been right between us. And you are not going to get away with telling me nothing is wrong this time, because I know there is,” I say, as I grab a hold of Kevin’s hand to keep him from walking away.

            Kevin looks back at me, and sees the tears running down my cheeks. “Oh God, you haven’t, have you?” I ask as I collapse on the floor in a pile of sobbing and tears.

                                    *            *            *            *            *            *            *                                 

            “What, Kala, Darling, I haven’t what?” he asks. God how he wants to just scoop her up into his arms and tell her that everything is ok. He can’t handle watching her so upset, so he does as his heart tells him. He kneels beside his crying wife and just holds her close.

            “Fallen out of love with me,” she says.

            “What? My darling angel, no, I love you more now than ever, Kala,” he says.

            She stands up and he does as well. “Then what is it? Why do you never have time to talk to me? Why don’t we chat like we did before?” she asks, choking on her tears. She and Kevin just stand there for several minutes, silent except for her tears. She stops crying as much and regains her composure. “Fine, Kevin. Silence speaks louder than words. I am going to stay away from you tonight, I will see you on the plane tomorrow, that is if you’ve come to your senses.”

            Kevin blinks away the tears and watches Kala’s back as she walks out of the room. This is not what he wants at all. It is time to come clean, or he will probably drive a rift between himself and the best thing that has ever happened to him. A rift that can never be fully repaired; he just can’t let that happen.

                                    *            *            *            *            *            *            *                                 

            I go to open the door, when I feel Kevin’s strong hand cover mine. I look up at him, to see tears in his eyes. I will give him a few seconds to speak, before I walk out the door.

            Kevin looks me in the eye, takes a deep breath, and says, “Please don’t.”

I reach up and wipe away the single tear that is slowly falling down his cheek. 

            “Kevin, you have to give me a reason not to,” I say.

             “You’re right Kala. There is something on my mind, and you have every right to know what it is,” Kevin says as he removes my hand from the door. “Can we go back to the bed?” Kevin asks. I follow Kevin back to the bed, and watches as he closes the bedroom door. I sit on the edge of the bed, waiting for him to start talking. He simply stands there a few feet away from me, for a few minutes, without either of them saying a word. Kevin finally speaks, “This is probably going to sound silly to you Kala, but I can’t get past what happened in Germany,” Kevin walks over to the window, and continues, “Kala, you have to understand that I only get this upset about things that I am passionate about,” he turns around to face me, and says, “I love you Kala, more than you know. I am afraid of that happening again, or something much worse,” Kevin finishes.

            I don’t know what to say. I have repeatedly told Kevin that I do not blame him for the attack. There is nothing to be done for it. But he is obviously still beating himself up over the whole incident. I walk up to Kevin, and am relieved when he takes me in his arms. I pull away after a few seconds, so I can speak.

            “Kevin, you know already that I don’t blame you for what happened. And the passion that comes out in you, when you are doing something or near someone that you enjoy, is one of the things I love about you Kevin. Please, Kevin, don’t let the fear of an accident tear us apart Kevin. That is the first time it has ever happened, and I know well enough to know that it will never happen again. Kevin you are the only person that fully understands everything I have been through in the past months. I love you too Kevin, and don’t want you going away to the concert tonight thinking that I blame you, or that you’ll be coming home to a dark room and or a cold wife, who isn’t at the door, holding her arms out to you in a welcome embrace.”

            Kevin takes me in his arms, and says, “I’m sorry, Kala. I really should have talked to you about this before it became a problem.”

            I reach up and let his fingers run through Kevin’s fine black hair, as our lips meet. Kevin lets his hands roam up and down my back as the kiss become more passionate. I become confused, when Kevin breaks the kiss and shakes his head. 

             “What?” I ask.

            “Not tonight, you’re still hurt,” he says. That’s when it hits me; he won’t make love to me for fear that he will hurt me.

            “Oh, Kevin, I just want a kiss before we leave,” I say.

            “We?” he asks.

            “Yes, we,” I say. “I have an idea.”

            That night, in the middle of the show, Kevin mysteriously disappears, then his voice comes from offstage and he says that would like to thank the audience for the concern that had been displayed to himself and his wife, but that he also thinks it will mean more coming from someone else. Kevin walks out onstage, and he brings Kala out onstage with him. Kevin kisses for an instant, and the crowd goes wild, and then she thanks the audience.

            As we go back to the hotel Kala leans her head on Kevin’s shoulder, and she knows that he wants sex, and is trying to be noble for her sake. She decides that it is a good night to give Kevin what he wants, she feels fine, and she knows that Kevin will be very conscientious of her and her needs.

            They get to the hotel and once he is standing up, she sees that he is extremely aroused; the elevator is empty on the way up to their floor, and she strokes the lump with a single finger. She looks up at Kevin with a gentle, deep, chuckle and a smile. He looks at her with the same expression; they get to their room.

            As soon as the door is locked behind them, Kevin takes Kala in his arms and carries her up the stairs; this floor is made up of two story deluxe suites. Kevin fears he will drop her as she sucks on his ear and kisses his neck. He gently puts her down on the top of the second floor because he knows that with her nibbling on him like a midnight snack, he won’t be able to make it into the bathroom without dropping her. He leads her into the bathroom. He removes his socks and shoes as Kala turns the shower on and gets the temperature right. She lightly places her hand on Kevin's crotch and gives him a light squeeze.
            Kevin lightly pushes her up against the wall. He then presses his body to hers and kisses her passionately. Kala wraps her arms around Kevin and starts running her fingers down Kevin's back. Kevin slowly pulls himself from Kala and pulls her silk lace, body-hugging shirt off over her head very slowly. When he finally gets it off, he can’t believe how beautiful she is in her black lace bra. Kevin secretly hopes that her bra matches her panties. Kala pulls Kevin's t-shirt off, and starts giggling for no reason other than she is so happy to have her husband back. Kala finally stops laughing when Kevin takes her bra off and takes a nipple in his mouth and flicks it with his tongue. Kala arches her back to bring herself closer to Kevin. Kevin slowly makes his way down Kala's abdomen and when he reaches the top of her jeans, he undoes the button, then the zipper and finally frees Kala from her tight black jeans. To Kevin's delight, her bra does match her panties. He presses himself up against Kala so she can feel the effect she is having on him.

            “See what you do to me?” Kevin asks, as he lightly grinds his hips.
            Kala takes Kevin's hand and places it between her legs. “Well, why don't you find out what you do to me,” she says.

            Kevin takes this opportunity to remove the only piece of clothing left on her body. Then he brings his finger back up her thighs slowly and lightly moves his finger over her moist clitoris. Kala jumps when Kevin does this; it feels like she is going to go over the edge if he does that one more time. Kala can’t take it anymore so she very quickly removes Kevin's pants and underwear to reveal his gorgeous manhood. She takes him in her hands and she can see the drop of liquid on the tip. That’s when he steps into the shower and Kala follows. She watches as Kevin stands under the flow of water and leans his head back to wet his hair. As Kevin does this Kala drops to her knees and takes his aroused member in her mouth. But she also strokes it with her fingers; this brings Kevin to climax much faster. The harder and closer to it he becomes the harder and faster she works at it with her mouth and fingers. As Kevin finally releases everything into her mouth, after prolonging his climax as long as he can, he screams her name out. As the two of them stand up, they each wash each other’s hair with shampoo twice and then conditioner. As they allow the conditioner to set, they wash each other’s bodies with soap. Kevin starts with her neck and moves down her arms then to her breasts and her back, then knelt down as he starts to work on her feet, finally coming to the place he wants to touch most of all. Kevin rises and places his hand between her legs and finds her sensitive button. Not sure how ready she truly is for love, he decides to start with slow caresses and slowly picks up the pace. Then in a now very commonplace ritual, Kala throws her arms around her husband's neck as she feels her climax nearing. Kevin covers Kala's lips with his own lips and probes her mouth with his tongue as he slips his finger into her and continues the massage, ultimately pushing her over the edge.

            Once Kala recovers from the experience, she does the exact same thing to Kevin, she starts in on his neck, and worked her way down to his stomach, then up from his feet. Kala slowly starts pumping Kevin's member, until Kevin knows he can’t take anymore. He comes into her hands and decides that things will have to be taken a little slower tonight than usual. He touches his wife’s shoulders and finds, much to his pleasure that her muscles are extremely tense.

            Kevin brings towels into the shower and dries Kala off with the utmost care and caution. He pats her skin with the soft, fluffy cotton towel, instead of rubbing it, which he fears will irritate it. He doesn’t leave any moisture on her body that can chill her. Then he dries himself off rather quickly, he makes her sit down as he dries her hair for her so it is soft and silky smooth. Kevin runs his fingers down the length of her newly dried hair and smells it. It is so sweet, just like the rest of her.

            Once her hair is finished, Kevin picks Kala up and carries her over to the bed and places her down lightly, however, he places her on her chest, not her back. Then leaves her for a short while, soon there are dancing shadows all about the room, he has lit candles all around the room.

            “Kevin, what are you doing?” she asks.

            “Sh, hush, my love,” he says as he straddles her body high on her legs. “I don’t want to hurt you, so I’m just going to relieve your tension,” Kevin announces in a whisper in her ear as he brings his mouth there, he gives her ear a gentle little nibble, then his hands rub her shoulders and arms. He takes his time before he moves to her neck and upper back. Whenever he finishes massaging a section of her body he covers it with a pre-warmed blanket.

                                    *            *            *            *            *            *            *                                 

            I can’t understand why he is doing this to me, but I am certain that I love it. I let him know just how good it feels by staying perfectly still and quietly sighing and softly moaning. He moves himself off of my body and rubs my legs and feet. Finally he finishes and I turn onto my back as he slowly lowers himself down on me, I can feel his manhood against my stomach and smile in pleasure.

                                    *            *            *            *            *            *            *                                 

            As he takes her supple breast in his hand he looks Kala in the eyes and asks, “Kala, are you sure that you’re ready to make love so soon after your run in with Jason?”

            “Oh trust me Kevin, I'm ready for this, it’s been nearly four months since that happened,” she says before she gives Kevin a passionate kiss. Without removing his lips from Kala's he slides his hand down to her pleasure spot. Kevin wants to make absolutely sure that he won’t harm his wife, and he thought that the massage would prove it, but she hadn’t responded to it as he hoped she would and so now he thinks of another method. By the time he dips his fingers into her hot core, she is ready for whatever Kevin has to offer. She gently rolls her head back as Kevin lightly begins to massage her sensitive bud. She goes to take his aroused member in her hand, but he stops her and whispers in her ear, “Kala, I want to be the one to give you pleasure, I will do all of the work. But tell me if you want me to stop.”
