Chapter Text
It's a beautiful warm night as MC grabs her phone, Lucas’s teasing message makes her smile as she locks the house door behind her. Standing out in the evening air she fiddles with her hair to make sure it's sitting right. She doesn't want to admit how long it took her to get ready, she wants to look perfect for Lucas.
A car pulls into her street and she recognises the driver with his blond messy hair and MC grins and waves.
Her phone beeps again with another message
"WOW," MC smiles at his reaction and then blushes at the next instant message.
"You look AMAZING."
She glances up as he pulls up and jumps out the car and opens the passenger door for MC. Placing a chaste kiss on her cheek his gaze rakes over her, the look in his eyes makes her blush return with a vengeance.
As they get in the car and drive off MC leans back in the chair and watches Lucas. His hand is on the gearstick so she instinctively places her hand over his. Enjoying the blush he now wears as he glances at her and laces their fingers together.
It doesn't feel long till the soldier is parking up at the side of a country road and MC is glad she chose sensible boots instead of heels now. Getting out of the car and following Lucas they walk up a small slope, and MC looks amazed at the scene before her.
They're both high above the city, the lights below twinkling like stars. MC breathes a sigh of wonder and at her side she feels Lucas stand close to her.
"Do you like it?" He asks and MC nods before glancing up at him.
"I'm happy anywhere as long as I'm with you." She replies and means it wholeheartedly.
Lucas explains how he came across the place when hiking and that he likes to come here to appreciate how lucky he is with what he has in life and now he wants to share it with MC. MC gazes back out at the view as Lucas spreads out a blanket on the grassy hillside and settles down on it. He watches her silhouetted by the evening twilight and feels his heart thunder in his chest. He's never seen anything so beautiful before and he wants to engrave the image in his memory. MC turns around innocent of the effect on him and sits down beside him on the blanket, close enough that their arms touch and Lucas feels the energy spark at the contact.
"Are you cold?" He asks but she smiles at him with that teasing look he dreams about.
"I'm sure you'll keep me warm." She replies and Lucas wraps an arm around her pulling her close and sighs happily as she leans her head against his shoulder.
This is all he's ever wanted, at this moment he knows this is all he's ever been looking for. He glances down at MC who's gazing out over the city with a soft smile and the thundering in his chest returns. He's been in more dangerous situations than he cares to remember but being here with MC he's actually scared. The strength of his feelings for her, someone that they've only known for a short time but it's undeniable.
He asks her if she likes to travel to try to gather his thoughts. The soldier explains that travelling was never a reason he enlisted as whenever he leaves he just longs to be home. Here looking over this city surrounded by his loved ones and now MC. It feels natural to include her in that group of important people now, having her by his side.
MC looks up at Lucas seeing the thoughtful look on his handsome face. She didn't know when this man had become so important to her but he had. In such a short time he became a constant thought in her head.
"You'll come back," she tells him and more to herself as the thought of him not being in her life hurts too much. "I know you will," she finishes and squeezes his arm. She wants to chase that worried look off his face.
"You don't. But thanks," he replies with calmness that makes MC want to cling to him and make him smile again.
"MC I need to tell you something," he says quietly, turning to look at her. MC bite her bottom lip nervously, as he reaches out and takes her hand. "I don't know how to say this." He starts and looks suddenly shy and looks away.
"You can tell me anything." MC says encouragingly while squeezing his hand. She wants to reach out and touch his face, to look in his subtle mismatched eyes. He turns to her and flashes a smile that makes her heart thud fast.
He begins to confess to her, that despite only knowing her for such a short time, that she means so much to him. His words make her stomach flip with wonderful butterflies.
"I've never had this connection before with anyone." He finishes and MC bites her lip to stop herself from grinning like an idiot.
She leans forward and presses a soft kiss to his lips hoping he could feel how much she cares for him.
"I feel the same way." She confesses and can't stop the grin now on her face.
"I'm going to miss you " he says with that thoughtful look returning. MC tells him the same and stops herself from continuing. He's finding this difficult as is and he doesn't need her crying because he's leaving.
He whispers her name and leans forward kissing her gently. It's such a bittersweet moment full of things that could have been had timing been different. MC reaches up and touches his jaw, dragging her nails along his blond stubble.
He was gentle and tender and MC could feel her heart swell with words she was too scared to say. She moves her hand to slide around his neck and pull him close.
Lucas had never felt this close to anyone before, not that he didn't love his family, but to find someone who felt like an extension of himself. But now he was going to have to leave her here and it felt like he was having to leave a part of him. He deepened the kiss when MC slid an arm around his neck. The soldier wanted her to feel his affection, his adoration for her.
MC kisses him back eagerly trying to get him to understand her blossoming love for him. His hand moves to her waist, his thumb brushing over soft skin peeking under her top. He feels her shiver at the contact and he feels his stomach flip with nerves.
Lucas whispers her name and any doubts he may have had at escalating contact are gone when he sees the way she looks at him. Licking her bottom lip and brushing her nose against his. He leads MC backwards so the blond soldier is leaning half over her. Her fingers are back at his jaw again holding him in place as her tongue flicks out against his lips. He sighs, wondering how such a simple action can make his blood burn. His fingers are tracing patterns on her hip and he relishes the soft whimper he can elicit from MC.
MC can feel his calloused fingertips drag over her skin making her twitch and shiver. They sweep up over her ribs and she moans shamelessly into their kiss. Her own hands now sliding over his shoulder blades tracing the hard muscles there and she wraps a leg around his waist. She breaks the kiss and offers her neck to Lucas who moves his lips up and down the sensitive skin. His tongue flicks out to taste her and marvels at the sweet noises it causes her to make.
One of her hands moves to his hair as the other slides under his t-shirt wanting contact with his skin. He nuzzles below her ear kissing and whispering her name. MC opens her eyes and sees him leaning over her, stars in the background crowing his head and she's not sure if she's going to survive without this man now.
"Is this ok?" He asks, even now thinking of her, taking care of her.
MC nods and savours the feeling of his soft hair through her fingers.
"I want you Lucas." MC says softly.
There's a tinge of sadness to his gaze and she leans up to tug off her top and kiss him again. She wants to forget tomorrow and just feel the moment. Lucas helps remove her top and he follows suit, the contact of naked flesh against the other causing both to moan.
There's a flurry of movement from the couple as their clothing is scattered around.
Seeing MC finally naked below him takes Lucas's breath away. Starlight paints her skin in the twilight and Lucas realises how much he cares for her, loves her.
Kissing the hollow of her throat he savours the shiver that runs through her.
MC let's her eyes flutter as he moves up her neck and pulls him close to her. She wants to merge with him, blend them together so they can never part. The evening air is cool on MC's skin but wherever Lucas touches burns and sears her.
His fingers run over her skin like he's trying to commit every curve to memory causing goosebumps of pleasure in their wake. MC runs a hand up to his shoulders while the other traces his spine causing him to shudder. Her leg is wrapped around his waist again and the slide of his hard on against her belly makes them both moan again. He's already leaking precum, causing the soft skin on her belly to become slick as she's grinding herself against his hip.
Lucas hears her whimper his name and his hand moves lower to her entrance. She's already wet and sliding a finger into her is no issue. MC is burrowing her face into his neck as she starts to ride his finger. He adds another and crooks them so they rub against the sensitive bundle of nerves inside her and MC bites his shoulder to stop herself screaming in euphoria. He's whispering encouragement to her as he scissors his rough fingers between the onslaught on her g-spot. MC is grinding her hips against his hand and panting hard as she tells him how close she is.
Lucas sucks on her neck again, leaving marks on that smooth skin. He grazes his teeth on her pulse point and bites down causing an eruption of ecstasy as MC climaxes. She cries out and her nails dig into his shoulders leaving crescent shapes behind.
Lucas removes his fingers from MC and licks them humming at her taste. MC watches through fluttering eyelashes as she catches her breath. Kissing his jaw she nips at him and moves her other leg to wrap around his waist.
"Lucas," her voice had a slight whine to it. She needs him in her, filling her. When she sees the flash of his grin her hand moves between them and strokes his hard length making Lucas shudder.
"That's cheating." He grunts trying to regain some composure. When she giggles in his ear he bites her shoulder gently.
MC nuzzles his neck whispering her need and gets some satisfaction when he leans on one arm and rubs the tip of his length at her entrance. She angles her hips and watches his face as he slowly pushes into her. MC arches her back in pleasure as Lucas stretches her with his hard dick, his jaw going slack at the bliss of MC's tight heat. Her legs move to hook around the small of his back, the angle he's thrusting in at causing her to see fireworks behind her eyelids.
Lucas makes sure when he pushes into MC that she feels nothing but pleasure. He wants nothing but this moment to be perfect for them both. He keeps pushing, and pushing till he is completely seated in her. His own breathing comes in fast as he wants to lose himself in her. Leaning over her on his elbows he experimentally gives a slow grind of his hips and shudders at the way she clenches around him.
"Are you ok?" He asks, his breathing ragged. Not hearing a reply straight away he looks down at MC and she's lying looking up at him with a happy dazed expression. Her hands reach up to hold his face and he turns his head to kiss her palm.
"Lucas," she whispers and tugs him close. He's breathing hard through his nose as she sucks on his bottom lip. "I'm so full of you." MC finishes between nipping his lip.
"MC." Lucas grinds out, feeling his control slip. She seems to understand as her legs squeeze around him in encouragement. He starts at a slow pace, each time he thrusts he can feel MC quiver. Releasing a shaking breath he presses close to her, taking her breasts in his hands.
MC mewls as Lucas fondles her tits, her nails raking down his arms as he pinches her nipples. It felt so intense her heart was thundering against her ribs. She watches his face again and he seems lost in pleasure, mesmerised by the way her breasts rise and fall. He leans forward to take a nipple in his mouth, flicking a tongue over it and sucking. MC's hands fly to his hair holding him there as her hips roll against him in perfect rhythm.
She was so close again and his ragged breathing and stuttering hips gave away how close Lucas was also. MC suddenly feels desperate, she doesn't want it to end, they'd have to stop being one, have to separate and she didn't want that pain. She clutched at his shoulders and as he raised his head from her tits the starlight caught the profile of his face. He looked ethereal, a blond god deeming her worthy as thrusting hips became an urgent pace.
Lucas was so close looking up from MC's breast and saw her watching him. She whispered his name and held his face so he couldn't look away. Even now his shyness is trying to rear its head but she wouldn't let it.
She's kissing him and whimpering soft words of affection and encouragement. How good he makes her feel, and he can't help but agree. He feels this is where he belongs, beside her, in her as one person. Her tongue flicks out against his as he pants open mouthed, his hips pistoning in and out of her. His hands were on her hips holding her in place as her cries of pleasure filled his head.
Her arms are wrapped around his neck as another climax hits her. Her voice caught in her throat as her eyes rolled in her head and MC buried her face in his neck as she gave a strangled moan.
As MC rode out her orgasm Lucas shuddered and thrust his hips one last time before coming hard. His hips ground against MC filling her with cum and his breath left in a shaking rush. He groaned her name as her tight walls clenched around him, wrenching the last of his orgasm from him. They held on to one another as the couple were caught up in the blissful afterglow. Lucas just wanted to float away with MC into the night sky joined together forever.
MC held his jaw and guided his mouth to her to leave a whisper of a kiss on the corner of his mouth.
Lucas gave a hum at the chaste kiss, nuzzling his face into the crook of her neck he took a deep inhale of her, the scent of her perfume and skin filling his senses. His large hands rubbed at her arms and savoured the shiver that ran through her at the contact. The soldier couldn’t get enough of her.
After a few moments Lucas pulled out of MC making them both shudder at the action, pulling her close to him MC sighed happily as she curled up against him. Resting her head on his chest Lucas wrapped himself around her to keep her warm. His calloused fingers running up and down her back.
Looking up at the sky the couple lay curled against one another in companionable silence feeling like they were the only two in the world. They chatted idly and Lucas smiled as MC giggled at his awful jokes, enjoying the way the noise vibrated through his chest that she lay on.
They knew they were running out of time and neither wanted to be the first one to break the spell over them. Darkness crept around them as the evening air turned into chilly night making Lucas lean up and cup MC’s face.
She knew they had run out of time, that he didn’t want to say it to her so she smiled trying to hide the sadness threatening to choke her. He nodded to her and gathered up their clothes handing them to MC so she could change as he gathered up the blanket.
Holding her hand he led her back to the car and soon they were heading back to the city below them.
As Lucas pulled up outside MC’s house they both sat in the car in silence looking out the front window.
MC looked down at her hands folded in her lap and squeezed them tight, she didn’t want to make this harder for Lucas. She glanced up at him and he had that sad expression on his face again before shaking it lightly and turning to her a bright and brittle smile on his face.
“Let me walk you to the door?” He asked and MC nodded, returning the smile.
As the couple got out of the car and walked up to her door they paused in front of it. Lucas tucked his hand into his pockets as MC fumbled for her keys and unlocked the door. She thought a moment of inviting him in but was worried she might try locking him in with her so he couldn’t leave. Not an impression she wanted to make on him.
Lucas watched her as she frowned when she looked into the dark house and glanced up at him as if to ask him inside but seemed to change her mind. It was for the best, the offer was too tempting and he would be too tempted to barricade the two of them in together, and didn’t want to seem as desperate as he really felt inside.
MC reached out her hand and touched his arm, fingers curling around his bicep and he reached out to her and placed his hands on her shoulders.
He murmured her name and despite the intimate activities on the hillside he still blushed at being able to touch her like this.
MC looked up at him and tried to smile but could feel her eyes burning with approaching tears. She flung herself into his chest to hide her face, burrowing her head into his neck as her shaking hands gripped his t-shirt at the back.
Lucas could feel her shaking against him and he wrapped his arms around her resting his head on the top of her head. Placing a long kiss to her soft hair he pulled back after a minute or so she stood back.
“I better go.” He said softly and MC nodded her eyes red rimmed.
“Message me tomorrow?” She asked hopefully and smiled wanly when he nodded and scuffed his shoe on the ground.
“You better get in, you’ll get cold,” Lucas said looking bashful and MC had to stop herself from flinging herself at him again. He watched her nod and move in doors and he nodded back, he was going to turn away when MC called his name. She surprised him by grabbing his face and kissing him, but before he could return it she pulled back and ran inside saying goodnight and slamming the door.
MC leaned against the inside of her door a moment before looking out the peephole to see Lucas still standing there stunned at her kiss. He blinked and smiled touching his lips before looking at her closed door. Placing a kiss on his index and middle finger he touched her door before turning and walking away. MC watched as he walked to the car, got in and then as it roared to life and pulled away.
Releasing the shake breath she was holding, MC finally gave in and started crying. Locking the door she ran to her room and flung herself onto her bed burying her head into a pillow. The grief finally taking hold of her, angry sobs wracked her body for what seemed like hours. Sobbing subsiding into crying hiccups she turned on her side and closed her eyes, praying that she could find peace in the oblivion of sleep.
