Accident Prone

They made love several times and he was gentle and powerful, and Liz confirmed that he knows how to please a woman. Max never fails to satisfy her.

"What are you thinking?", Max asked while cradling Liz in his arms.

"That I am a lucky woman."

"Please, say that it's because of me.", Max half-whined.

Liz laughed at his childish behavior. "It's because of you. I am lucky because you are in my life."

Max hummed in approval and he wanted to take advantage of the current good mood. "Liz, I hope that you are thinking beyond June."

Liz didn't understand. "What?"

"When I asked you about getting our place, you said that your plans were only until the conference in June. I want you to think about what will happen after that. I am ready to do anything to accommodate your plans, but I need to know what those plans are. Are you returning to New York, or stay in Seattle? Or something else? Don't answer now but think about it. OK?"

"What will you do if I return to New York?"

Max shrugged helplessly. "If that is what you want, I will think of a way for our relationship to work."

"Why are you not asking me to stay in Seattle?"

"Because I know that to you, your career is important. Of course, I would love that you stay in Seattle, that would make things so much simpler for me. But if you think that New York will work better for you, I will support you. I would change my schedule and figure out a way to work remotely so that I can spend at least a few days a week in New York, and I hope that you will be willing to make some small sacrifices so that we can maintain our relationship without jeopardizing our careers."

Of course, Liz thought about her plans for beyond the conference. It's not a firm deadline, but it's the one she gave to herself to accomplish her goals.

Liz would love to stay in Seattle even though in terms of career and money, New York makes more sense because Isaac's identity will give her opportunities she would need to fight for in any other place. But Seattle is not a bad option either; her career is blossoming, her friends are in Seattle and so is Max, and life is more than just being successful at work.

However, Max's presence made that choice complicated because Liz does not want to make a big decision that might impact her career and the rest of her life due to a relationship. She saw too many lives crash because people were blinded by love and temporary infatuation, and she is not sure if this with Max is something that will last for a long time or burn quickly. After all, six months ago, she didn't know who Maximilian Anderson is and even though she is in love with him, Liz always relied on herself and made decisions based on her needs and she wants to continue doing so.

Liz is touched by Max's thoughtfulness. He is acknowledging her priorities and trying to accommodate them. To say that she was not moved, would be a lie. Max is awesome like that.

Liz observed his expression, and she could see the sincerity in his gaze.

"You would do that for me? Change your schedule and come to New York frequently?"

Max tightened his hold on Liz and murmured: "I would do anything for you, Liz."

His words stirred something inside Liz that started from her heart and moved lower… and then Liz felt an increasing throbbing need at her core.

Liz got on top of Max and grinded herself on his erection.

She sealed his lips with hers while her hand reached lower and guided him inside her.

Their lustful sounds mixed as he got all the way in and Liz started moving her hips in small circular motions.

The fact that Liz initiated lovemaking, was the biggest aphrodisiac Max ever experienced.

His hot palms glided over the curves of her body and it didn't take long before he acknowledged that he needs it faster and harder, and that her pace was torturously slow.

Max grabbed her buttocks and lifted them slightly, just enough to pound himself inside her from below while setting a vigorous pace to their lovemaking.

He enjoyed the sight of Liz's flushed face, and her firm breasts bouncing, and her sounds… Elizabeth is usually composed, but when she gives in to her lust, she makes unrestrained sounds that are like music to his ears. Max can distinguish the smallest of changes in her gasps and moans which tell him that she is getting close to her climax. And he is getting close also... the raw feeling of her wet heat clutching him tightly is impossible to resist.

Elizabeth's moans morphed into cries and he was right behind her with last few trembling thrusts, each slower than the previous one, as he released himself inside her.

She laid on top of him and her hot breath mixed with his. They stayed like that for some time without a word and it was perfect.

After an unknown measure of time, Max broke the silence. "Did you decide what you want to do while we are here?"

Liz knows that he is asking her about the activities. He gave her a number of brochures to read while he made cocktails for both of them. There were activities such as hiking, sightseeing, rafting, kayaking, golfing, a tour of the city that involved tasting local delicacies… everything looked like fun and Liz could not decide.

"Will it be OK if we stay here? At least for some time? Or do you need to make some arrangements in advance?"

"It's a vacation. We can do whatever you want, for how long you want it."

"You are spoiling me."

Max hummed in confirmation. "You saw through me."

Liz smiled. "Honestly, I want to do many things, but right now I just want you to hold me. It feels like a long time since I felt this belonging and I need your proximity. In the morning, I might change my mind and ask you to go bungee jumping…"

Max was surprised by her choice of words. Belonging. Somehow, it described how he feels, that the two of them belong together. There is no need for games or pretending, they can be themselves and it's enjoyable. Belonging. He likes that word.

"What…?" Liz gasped when Max lifted her up.

"We need to shower.", Max explained his action. They made love several times and they are sweaty and sticky.

"But showers are outside.", Liz protested.

"Privacy is guaranteed. No one comes here. Enjoy the shower under the stars with an ocean view…"

Just in case, Max turned off the main lights on the porch and Liz found that it's acceptable. Even if someone is watching them, they can't see more than two silhouettes.

Liz was a bit disappointed that there was no ocean view. It was only darkness. But the lights under the house worked perfectly and it looked like they are floating on some magical energy.

They showered quickly and returned to the bedroom where Max pulled a spare set of bedsheets from the drawer.

They changed the bed linens in a joint effort and Liz giggled through the process.

"What's funny?", Max asked.

"The fact that we are doing this naked."

"You call it funny, and I call it a visual treat.", Max said while tightening the last corner of the fitted sheet on his side of the bed.

Liz stood on the opposite side of the bed from Max and took in his naked body that made her mouth water.

He noticed her hungry gaze and straightened his back while keeping his hands akimbo, to give her a better view.

Liz's eyes paused on his erection and she crawled over the bed toward him.

Max hissed when she took him in her mouth. This will be the best vacation ever!
