She was in the kitchen making a sandwich for herself when her thoughts turned to him.  She could only imagine how he must have been feeling at that very moment.  She knew he must have been feeling devastated to have two shows canceled in two years.  She had read the news about the cancellation of the show on-line and was surprised he hadn’t called.  She was just getting ready to head back upstairs when their was a gentle knock on her front door.  She walked over and pulled it open.  There he stood his coat pulled tight around his body.

“What are you doing here?” she asked.

“I took a late flight,” he said gently, “I just had to get away for a while.  I would have called,”

“Don’t be silly,” she said.

“I didn’t even pack a bag,” he said, “I just left with the clothes on my back,”

“Just get in here,” she smiled pulling him into the house. 

She moved to take his coat off as he stood inside the door.  She hung up his coat and looked back at him.  He was just wearing a dark blue long sleeved shirt, and black jeans.  He rubbed his hands together trying to regain his warmth.

“Can I get you anything, coffee, tea?”

“No,” he said, “I’m fine,”

“If you were fine you wouldn’t be here,” she said.

“You’re right,” he said, “I just really needed to see a friendly face,”

“Hon, I’m really sorry,” she said moving closer to him.

“I know babe,” he said, “It’s all right though.  To be fair I wasn’t really happy with the way things were going,”

“Come on,” she said taking his hand in hers, “Let’s talk,”

She led him into the living room and they sat on the couch.  She curled her long legs under her as he sat next to her.  He looked so handsome sitting there.  She heard a deep sigh escape his soft lips.

“Hon?” she said gently.

“I feel like TV poison,” he said suddenly.

“Don’t say that,” she said, “It’s not your fault,”

“It’s just not fair.  That’s two shows now, in a row.  I swear they’re going to stop offering me roles if this keeps up,”

“Hey, don’t say things like that,” she said looking at him, “I won’t sit here and let you start doubting yourself,”

“It’s just I really thought this time was going to be different,” he said standing up, “I liked having a job to go to on a regular basis, working with the same people.  Damn it!  Why can’t I catch a break?” 

“Hey,” she said walking over to him, “Don’t do this to yourself please,” she placed a hand on his arm, “You did the best you could with what you had to work with.  It kills me to see you shouldering all the blame for this,” He turned to her and she nearly melted under his gaze.  He had never looked at her that way before.

“You know you are the best friend I’ve ever had,” he said softly, “I mean you’ve been by my side right from the start.  I don’t know how I would have gotten through all this without you,”

“You’re my best friend, I would never leave you in a lurch, you know that,”

“I honestly don’t know what I did to deserve you,” he hugged her close. 

As he held her in his arms, she felt the strangest feeling creep up on her.  A warm wave of desire suddenly washed over her as she felt his strong arms wrapped around her.  They had been through a lot together.  She had been by his side since he landed his very first role. 

She saw him through the mindless little roles that went unnoticed, to his blockbuster breakthrough.  She had seen all his highs and helped him through his lows.  Now when the low had come again there she was to lean on.  He pulled back to look at her and he saw a flicker in her eyes.  Without thinking, he leaned in and kissed her sweet lips.  His lips touched hers briefly before he looked at her again.

“Hon,” she said softly.

“I need this,” he said quietly, “I need you,”

“Yes,” she said in near whisper, “Yes,”

He pressed his lips to hers and she thought her knees would give way at the feel of him.  He tightened his hold on her trim waist feeling her hips press against his.  She slipped her arms around his neck, and slipped her fingers into his short hair.  She opened her mouth when she felt his soft tongue caressing her lips.  A moan escaped her body as he probed her mouth tasting every measure of her.  He was lost in the taste of her at that moment.

He moved his mouth from hers and she soon felt his lips on her neck.  She felt a shiver pass through her as the stubble on his chin brushed against her soft skin.  His full lips nipped playfully at her skin as his tongue tasted her.  She couldn’t help but sigh at the feeling of him touching her that way.  His mouth soon found it’s way to her ear and he nipped at it as well.  His hot breath sent another shiver through her as she hung on with all her might.

“Where’s your bedroom?” he asked softly as he licked the sensitive skin at the base of her ear.

“It’s…it’s…upstairs,” she stammered, “End…of…the…hall,” 

He stopped at that moment and she let out a gasp of surprise as he lifted her into his arms.  He strode up the staircase with her as if she weighed nothing.  He carried her into the bedroom and stopped just short of the bed.  He set her on her feet and looked at her.  There was a full moon that night and it spilled through her bedroom windows giving him just enough light to see her. 

She reached forward taking his shirt in her hands.  He dropped his eyes and watched as she unbuttoned his shirt slowly to reveal his smooth chest.  She ran her hand across him feeling the hardness of his muscles.  She soon moved up to push his shirt back off his shoulders.  It slipped off his long arms and feel to the floor.  She once again placed a hand on his chest feeling his breath catch.  She let it linger there and then she trailed it over his arm and around to his back as she circled him.  He was so beautiful as the moonlight illuminated his skin.

She was again stood before him and she smiled as she took his hand in hers.  She led him to her bed and had him sit down.  She knelt before him and could feel his gaze on her as she removed his shoes.  She soon slipped his socks off as well before she stood up.  She felt his strong hands on her hips as he drew her near to him.  She caressed his stubbled cheek and gave him a sweet smile.  She straddled his lap and she could feel how aroused he was.  He looked into her eyes at that moment.

“Babe I,” he started.  He was cut off when she placed her fingers to his lips.

“No,” she said, “We’ll just let it happen,” 

She kissed his lips and she felt a deep moan escape his body.  He slipped his hands around to her back as she started her own exploration of his neck.  It was now her turn to nip at his skin, lick his ear, and nibble his ear lob.  It wasn’t long before she felt him coil her hair around his slender fingers.  She licked her way down to his throat and playfully nipped at his Adam’s apple.  She felt him swallow hard making it bob as she teased him.

He held her tight as he slid back further onto her bed, she soon pushed his back as her mouth moved lower across him.  She ran her hands over his soft skin feeling every curve of his tight muscles.  He let out a deep moan as her mouth followed the trail her hands had just blazed.  She moved down and let her soft tongue glide over his flat nipple.  It instantly grew hard as she teased it.  She licked his skin as she moved across his flat stomach. 

Before she could make her next move, she felt his strong hands on her arms.  He pulled her up dragging her across his lean body.  He rolled with her and she let out a slight gasp as she felt his weight on her.  He parted her legs with his knee and she eagerly wrapped her leg around his. 

His mouth was on her skin again as he reached for the buttons on her silk blouse.  He moved quickly to open it, hungry to feel her skin against his.  He waisted no time unhooking her bra.  Her firm full breasts slid from the lace and he drew a rosy nipple into his mouth.  She cried out instantly as he sucked it deep.  She pressed against him as he released one breast for the other.  He ravaged her breasts before moving down her body.

She trembled as he undid the button on her jeans.  He drew the zipper down and then moved his hands to her waist.  She lifted her hips as she felt him hook his fingers into her waistband.  He pulled them down bringing her lace panties with them.  She laid there naked before him, desire burning in her eyes.  He moved to her again and she hugged him close.  His mouth met hers in a frenzy of passion his hand slipped down between her thighs, searching for her hidden jewel of pleasure.

He moaned into her mouth when he felt how hot and wet she was.  She felt incredible and he could hardly believe he was finally going to have her.  He began to stroke her in an attempt to ready her for the final act, but he soon felt her hands on his jeans.  He tore his mouth from hers and looked down at her face.  She met his gaze as she undid his jeans.  She grabbed the waistband shoving it down over his hard ass.

She didn’t speak but he knew what she wanted from him at that moment.  He shifted his weight and settled between her long legs.  A shudder passed through him as he felt himself sink into her hot chamber.  The heat and the tightness of her body clinging to him was almost mind shattering.  He wanted to hold still, wanted to savor the moment but he felt his control quickly slipping away.

He began moving inside her as she cried out in pleasure.  She quickly matched his rhythm and soon their moans hung in the air.  He continued to plunge his full length into her.  She clutched at his back and ass as he pounded into her.  In that instant he felt like he was soaring.  He felt it then, the tiny muscles inside her clamped down on him as her orgasm tore through her body.  She arched wildly against him, her eyes rolling back as the pleasure shook her to her core.

The furiousity of her orgasm caused him to quickly find his own.  He shifted his weight to his elbows as he hovered over her.  She soon opened her beautiful eyes and smiled softly at him.  He soon felt his breath slow as he recovered.  He finally decided to speak.

“I loved you,” he said softly, “Did you know that?”

“Yes,” she said softly, “In my heart I always knew,”

“I’m sorry I never told you,” he said in a whisper.

“I knew honey,” she said caressing his cheek, “I knew,” she kissed him gently, “Our time is ending,”

“No,” he said, “Don’t leave,”

“I have to,” she said, “You know we can’t stay here forever,”

“I miss you,” he said pressing his forehead to hers.

“I’m always with you,” she said quietly, “I’ll always be here when you need me,” In the back of his mind he heard an alarm go off, “It’s time for you to go,”

“I love you,” he said again.

“I know darling,” she said, “I love you too.  Now wake up,”

His eyes shot open he felt his heart jump.  He sat up and turned away from the bed.  He knew she wasn’t there and he felt tears sting his eyes.  It had been years since she had passed and yet when he truly needed her she was there.  He reached for his wallet on his nightstand and flipped it open.  There tucked behind his license was her picture.  She was still beautiful, still the loving girl he remembered.

Somehow, someway, she had managed to keep her promise to him.  With her dying breath, she promised that no matter what happened, no matter how bad things got, she would be there.  He hadn’t thought it was possible, but there it was.  He ran his hands through his short hair.  At that moment, he realized that no matter what happened, he would be all right.

“Thanks babe,” he said as he ran his fingers over her picture.  In his mind, he could almost hear her voice.
