“Thanks,” she said, smiling. “What do you have going on today?” she asked, looking over at him.

 

“The new contractors for the house are arriving sometime today. Then I have to draw up the ratings and reviews for the places that I viewed in Scotland and hand them in. What about you?”

 

“I need to drop off some more lingerie and toys to Stacy around lunch. Is there a chance you could drive me, I don’t feel up to it.”

 

“Sure, babe.” He smiled at her.

 

Finishing up in the kitchen, she went to her room to pack up the second lot of toys and lingerie; she took the boxes near the front door and went back in her room to clean it. Ripped off her sheets, pillowcases and quilt and placed them in the washing machine. Hopefully the load would be finished before she had to go. She was starting to feel a bit funny in her stomach, but didn’t worry too much about it right now.

 

When it was close to noon, both Craig and Skylar jumped in her car and made their way across town. But before they even got near town, Skylar had fallen asleep. Craig ran the stuff in to Stacy for her. A quarter of the way back home she woke up, “Craig, I really don’t feel well.”

 

He pulled over on the side of the road. “What is it?” he said with a worried tone.

 

“I don’t know, I just don’t feel right,” she said as she held her stomach.

 

He got out and walked to her side, opening the door. “Come and lie down on the back seat, you might feel a little better.” He helped her from the front and laid her down on the back seat.

 

“Thank you,” she said. Rolling on her side and facing the seat, she closed her eyes. On the way home Craig had to stop by his house to meet the contractors. She knew they had stopped but couldn’t get up. After half an hour they were on their way back to her place. All she could do right now was curl up in bed
, I’ll feel better tomorrow,
she told herself. By the time they arrived home, she couldn’t move, the pain in her stomach was getting worse.

 

Craig opened her door, “How do you feel now?”

 

“I think it’s getting worse, Craig… it hurts too much.”

 

“I’ll carry you in, babe. I’ll be as gentle as I can be, okay.” He was starting to worry about her. She nodded. He lifted her up off the seat gently, but even that movement made her moan. “I’m sorry. I’ll get in the house as quickly as I can.”

 

Tears started to run down her face at the pain. God, she felt like she was dying.

 

Craig walked slowly to her house; the movement was killing her. Stopping, he turned around. “
Nate
.” he yelled towards his house, staying still where he was, not to hurt her further.

 

* * *

 

Nate was under a car when he heard Craig yell his name. Sliding out from under it, he walked out of his shed and towards the front of the house. Frowning, he looked at his front porch, but no one was there. He looked over at Skylar’s and noticed Craig was standing in the middle of her lawn with Skylar in his arms. He took off running towards them. Stopping in front of Craig, out of breath, he asked, “What happened?” He looked over Skylar, she had no colour in her face, and she was moaning while holding her stomach.

 

“I don’t know. We were driving to Stacy’s to drop off stuff, but she was asleep by the time we got there. On the way home she said she didn’t feel well, so I laid her down in the back and now she said the pain is getting worse.” He could tell Craig was worried about her. Hell, so was he. “Can you carry her inside and I’ll go before you and get her bed ready?” Craig asked, passing her to Nate.

 

He gently lifted her to his chest and walked slowly to the house, careful not to hurt her, but it was hard not to as every step he took she cried out. The movement wasn’t helping the pain she felt. He managed to get her into the house and in her bed. Stripping off his boots, he lay down beside her and rubbed her back.

 

Craig brought in a cold rag and placed it on her forehead. She started to shiver, and Nate moved behind her enough that his body heat could warm her while gently stroking her belly, trying to sooth the pain she was in. He had no idea why she was like this. She was fine yesterday when he saw her. He really hoped everything was all right.

 

Skylar curled up into a ball all of a sudden, holding her stomach, crying harder. “Sky.” Nate jumped off the bed quickly and ran around to her side, kneeling beside her. Placing his hand over hers, he stroked the tears away from her eyes. “Baby, what’s wrong?”

 

Skylar looked up at him, “Nate, it feels like my insides are ripping apart.” Skylar sobbed.

 

Nate felt her forehead, “You need to cool down, baby. You’re burning up. I’ll run the bath for you.”

 

“No, I don’t want to move, Nate.”

 

“I know, sweetheart, but you have to. I’ll be gentle, I promise.” Nate went into her bathroom and ran a cool bath.

 

“Craig,” Nate yelled.

 

Craig came into her room, “What’s up?” he said, frowning.

 

“She needs to cool down. I’m going to jump in the bath, can you carry her in here and place her on top of me. You will need to strip her.”

 

“Maybe we should take her to the hospital.” Craig whispered.

 

“If her temperature hasn’t come down after the bath, we’ll take her, then.” Nodding, he went and grabbed Skylar. He lowered himself in it, and waited for Craig. Five minutes later he walked in with her, laying her down on top of him. Nate wrapped his arms around her body, holding her. Skylar’s body started to shudder more from the water. “I know its cold baby, but it will help with your temperature. If it keeps going up, we’re going to have to take you to the hospital.”

 

“No, I don’t want to go to the hospital,” she said, shivering.

 

“If you get worse, I will be taking you. Please don’t fight me on this, baby. I don’t want anything to happen to you.” He leaned down and kissed the top of her head.

 

Skylar nodded at him.

 

Craig came in several times to check on them. The last time he did that Nate asked him to grab Skylar. After leaning over to get her, he got out and dried himself, while Craig did the same for her. Walking back to her bed he jumped in and Craig placed Skylar beside him. He wrapped the sheet over her and left the room.

 

Skylar’s temperature came down slightly after the bath. It was a start, he thought. Eventually she fell asleep curled into his side. God, he had no idea what was wrong, but he wasn’t going to leave her like this. Although he was really worried about her, he closed his eyes and fell asleep himself.

 

                                              * * *

 

Opening her eyes as she sat up slightly and looked at her clock beside the bed. 2:27 a.m. Nate was asleep beside her, she could feel his breath on the top of her head and his arm was over her hip, keeping her close to him. Smiling to herself, she snuggled closer to him and placed her arm over his. She couldn’t get close enough to him; she shifted her body closer to him as her ass nestled against his crotch and her back was flush against his chest.

 

Skylar felt that he wasn’t wearing a shirt, and she wasn’t wearing anything at all. She could feel his cock hardening through his jeans. Smiling, she rubbed her ass against him. He moved his hand up to cover her breast and left it there. She waited to see if he would wake up. Five minutes went by and still he was sound asleep, leaving his hand covering her breast. She moved her arm and placed it behind her as she rubbed over his erection. When he was completely hard, she unzipped his jeans and pushed her hand under the material, wrapping her hand around his cock as she started to stroke it up and down, while pushing her ass into his crotch.

 

Nate started to massage her breast. She moaned at his touch as she gripped his cock firmer, pumping her hand up and down. He moaned into her hair and then he stopped what he was doing to her. “Stop moving, baby,” he growled.

 

“Why, Nate?” Did she do something wrong?

 

“Because you’re sick and I’m not going to make love to you like that,” he said.

 

“I’m fine, just a stomach bug and I want you to, please,” she said as she rubbed her ass again against his hardness.

 

He grabbed her hips to stop her. “You’re not fine.” He removed his hand from her hips as she rolled onto her back and looked at him, running her own hand down her body to her wet pussy.

 

“Yes I am, Nate. And if you’re not going to make love to me, I’ll do it myself.” Rubbing her finger over her clit, she gasped and spread her legs wider. Moving her fingers lower to her opening she collected her juices and went back up to her clit, circling harder. She lifted her hips off the bed, moaning.

 

Nate groaned at what he was seeing; he pulled her fingers away from her clit and raised it to his mouth, sucking her juices off them. He moved and covered her body with his. Lowering his mouth to hers, he ran his tongue along her lips and groaned as he pushed his tongue into her mouth so he could deepen the kiss further. He slid off his jeans and ran his hand down her body to her pussy, thrusting two fingers deep inside her.

 

Whimpering, she lifted her hips to him and started grinding on them. “Nate,” she moaned.

 

He loved the way she said his name like that. He thrust his tongue into her mouth so he could taste her.

 

He moaned as she sucked on his tongue. He drove his fingers harder and deeper into her pussy, feeling more of her juices run down his hand. Nate moved his hips with hers adding to the sensation. “Please, Nate.”

 

Growling, he pulled out his fingers, positioned his cock at her opening and pushed into her hard and deep, making her scream out. Jesus, he loved hearing her scream like that. He pulled out almost all the way so that just the head of his cock was inside of her, then he pumped back into her making her moan louder. She wrapped her legs around his waist, driving him deeper into her pussy. God, he fit her so perfectly she could feel his balls hitting her ass every time he rammed into her. She was so close; running her hands up his body and pinched his nipples. Groaning, he thrust harder, Skylar gripping her legs tighter around him.

 

She started moving her hips with his, faster. “Harder, Nate,” she screamed. This was killing her. He lifted her ass up off the bed and slammed harder into her, hitting her G-spot as she ran her hand down to her throbbing clit, rubbing hard. Her pussy was gripping his cock every time she rubbed harder. Moaning, she arched her back off the bed. “Nate,” she screamed, her orgasm hitting her like a tornado, coming around his cock and griping it; she felt him shudder.

 

Nate kept pounding into her, lifting her legs over his shoulders, driving him deeper.

 

Skylar screamed out his name again as another orgasm hit her, making Nate explode, groaning out her name. After he was spent, he let go of her legs and lay beside her, pulling her to him as he wrapped his arms around her. They were still breathing heavily.

 

“I didn’t hurt you, did I?” he said as he stroked her arm. He felt her smile against his side.

 

“I’m a lot better now.” Skylar snuggled closer into him.

 

Nate laughed. “Good.” He wrapped his arm tighter around her.

 

“I’m just a little tired and hungry, but I’d rather sleep, right now,” she said as she yawned.

 

“We’ll go back to sleep since it’s early, and when you wake up I’ll make you something to eat, okay?”

 

Nodding at what he said, she yawned again and fell back to sleep.

Nate untangled himself from Skylar the next morning. Getting up slowly so he wouldn’t wake her, he made his way to the kitchen. He grabbed eggs and bacon and placed the bacon in the frying pan. As he waited for that to cook, he threw some bread into the toaster.

 

“How is Skylar?” Craig asked when he walked in.

 

“Her temperature is back to normal. Thought I’d make something to eat and take it to her,” Nate answered him.

 

Placing the eggs in the pan, he grabbed out some fruit, sliced it up and placed it in a bowl. Once it was all cooked, he placed the food on a tray and carried it to her room. Opening the door softly, he walked in and put the tray down on her bedside table. He sat down next to her. She was still sound asleep, curled up near his pillow. He smiled. She looked so adorable lying there.
