Love Begins

Love Begins

Toni had always been an avid romance book reader. The yearning for a passionate love affair started young with Disney movies. This eventually grew to obsessing over any book with even a hint of a love story. From Beverly Jenkins to Nicholas Sparks, Toni became fixated on what love could and should look like. Her 30 years of constant reading trained her to devour a thick romance novel in mere hours. There was nothing better for the hopeless romantic than curling up in bed and letting a story take her away to a world where true love always won against whatever obstacles the main characters faced. Happily ever afters were always guaranteed in Toni's favorite method of escape. And so were orgasms.

The concept of sex had always fascinated Toni. A virgin until 25, she was obsessed with everything that a sexual relationship could be. She'd been masturbating since 12 and became a pro at getting the perfect orgasm in 3 minutes by age 20. Of course that involved dipping into her extensive sex toy collection, but Toni knew exactly which toy worked for her each particular need and potential time restraints - like right before class or getting ready for work. She'd nearly failed out of college due to prioritizing trying to squirt like a porn star over writing a paper worth 30% of her grade.

When Toni discovered that there was a genre that combined the romance she longed for and the mutual orgasms she craved, she was hooked on erotica. She found websites dedicated to it and discovered authors whose writing inspired her greatest fantasies. Her few sexual partners could never live up to her book boyfriends (and girlfriends in some frisky cases), leaving her disappointed when things didn't pan out. No one had the spark Toni was looking for, the undeniable chemistry that led to ripping off clothes and planning a future together. Until Gerald.

From the moment Toni saw Gerald's profile on a random dating app, she knew there was something special about him. Something in his eyes spoke to her on a spiritual level, told her she could trust him with her secrets. And his smile was so genuine she thought she just may be able to trust him with her heart. So, she gave it a shot and accepted his friend request. But after being burned in other apps where she'd put herself out there with no response, she waited to see if he would start the first conversation.

A simple query about the current book she was reading told Toni two fundamental things: he'd actually read the part in her profile that mentioned she could usually be found in a corner reading. This endeared him to her immediately, letting Toni know he paid attention to detail. Because of this, though, it also told her that she was absolutely and completely screwed.

Up to that point, Toni had been able to safeguard her heart. Until Gerald, she'd only had one spring fling that seemed promising but fizzled out like a like a cheap sparkler in July. Though that situationship set back her hopes of finding her one true love, she knew she had to keep putting herself out there. Even if she couldn't find the perfect man to slide her foot into a glass slipper, she could at least try for a guy that could make her toes curl with the perfect climax.

So far, Toni didn't think there was such a thing as a perfect orgasm anymore. She'd had some that were solid for her needs, but none that were noteworthy enough to lead its own fantasy for later. But when Toni met Gerald in person for the first time, she knew he could take her to peaks she hadn't even imagined yet. Due to them being so far apart in physical distance, they'd built up a digital relationship that moved from messages on the dating app to talking on the phone almost daily, with a few video chats thrown in to make sure no one was catfishing the other.

Gerald quickly became Toni's favorite person to talk to. They could converse about everything from work foes to the inevitable downfall of society. No conspiracy theory was too crazy, no joke too cheesy, and no question was too out of bounds. From the first phone call, both knew that it was only a matter of time before they checked to see if their emotional chemistry was just as good sexually. Neither wanted to rush it, but neither denied that they were fated to connect on that specific, deeper level.

After two long months, Toni and Gerald finally met in person. It was supposed to be a legitimate date, with dinner and casual conversation about the weather. He met her at her apartment, and Toni truly intended to give him a quick tour of the space she shared with a roommate. But by the time they got to her room and she closed the door, she just had to know how his lips tasted. Toni secretly hoped he would be a sloppy kisser, so she would have an easy out for not taking the relationship past friendship. She'd wished he would be awkward and not know where to put his hands so she could say that due to him not turning her on, there was no reason to risk her heart.

But as soon as her lips touched his, Toni knew that Gerald had the potential to take all of her hopes and dreams and protect them with his life. When his hands grabbed her by the waist, she knew she could stay in his arms forever and never want to move. As she opened her mouth to take the kiss deeper, tangling her tongue with his, Toni accepted that whatever sweet words Gerald told her were promises she could count on. She found herself on the fast track to being in love with him during that kiss, but she knew there was only one way to know if giving up her heart was worth it: consummating the true friendship and romance they'd been building.

When he pulled her toward the bed and sat on it, Toni immediately straddled him with no second thought. Though they were both clad in jeans, she found herself rolling her hips trying to create the perfect pressure on the body part that wanted him most. As they tried to devour each other orally, there were a couple of pauses where both Toni and Gerald said they should stop, him wanting to be a gentleman and her pretending she was a lady. But every time they were drawn right back to each other, hands roaming over whatever could be reached. Eventually Toni lifted off Gerald with a kiss on his lips and backed over to the door, holding eye contact. He prepared himself for their makeout session to end, steeling his emotions for her to open the door so they could head out for dinner. Instead, she locked the door with a mischievous smile.

Years of living with other people taught Toni the power of background noise during sexual escapades. It prevented others from being offended by whatever pleasure was verbalized - usually hers on various solo missions. Toni knew she was a loud lover, with a partner or alone, so she always tried to be courteous and have music or a TV show going to cover up whatever sounds escaped her. They decided on a cartoon they'd both seen many times, starting with the first episode. Later on, they would use the 22 minute format for each episode to gauge how long each session lasted.

Once the show was picked and the volume was at the perfect level, Toni and Gerald made a silent agreement that clothes weren't necessary for what they were doing next. Between frantic kisses they stripped down to nothing and took their time to appreciate each other's bodies. Toni saw the evidence of their actions standing proudly between his legs, giving her a small sense of pride knowing she'd encouraged a new friend to come out and play. Gerald found himself drawn to her abundant chest, pleasantly shocked by everything her shirt and bra managed to fit and conceal.

This time when they came back to each other for a kiss, there was more of a surety in it. Now that the inevitable had been decided, there was no need to rush. Though still sexually charged, their mouths joined in more of an exploration with the desire of wanting to memorize the moment. Both Toni and Gerald knew this would be special and wanted to savor each detail, since they'd only get one first time. He held her tightly in his arms, squeezing her closer as his tongue danced with hers. She wrapped her arms around his neck, holding him by the nape to keep his face as close to hers as possible.

As the kisses grew deeper, neither could prevent their pelvis from grinding into the others. Just a few inches in height differences made the perfect line up for Gerald's penis to be dangerously close to entering Toni's vagina. With a thrust timed just right, he could find himself enveloped in the warm comfort that could only be found between her legs. Knowing this, Gerald led them from standing in the middle of the room to the foot of Toni's bed, nudging her gently down. He stood up, taking time to appreciate the body being offered up to him. Though he wanted to take his time and worship every part of her body, the rise and fall of her chest as she took heavy breaths let him know she wanted him as bad as he wanted her. With one last gaze over Toni's body, Gerald retrieved his wallet from the pants he'd discarded to grab the condoms he had there.

Toni saw the three condoms Gerald had at the ready and silently thanked him for being prepared. They'd talked about birth control methods during one of their many conversations, but she was still glad that he kept his promise to not just rely on her IUD to prevent an accidental pregnancy. Gerald sat two of the condoms on the nightstand next to Toni's bed for easy access and watched her scoot closer to the head of the bed as she watched him pull the condom out the foil packet and roll it onto himself. Contraceptive handled, he made his way between her spread legs and took a few moments to rub the lush thighs encasing him while looking into her eyes. Her pupils were dilated and between them he could see her nipples were dark brown buds straining toward him.

Toni appreciated him taking a minute to check in with his eyes to make sure she still wanted to continue. She answered by grazing her fingers up and down his arms while rubbing her wet slit along his rock, hard dick. Taking that as his cue to fulfill both of their needs, Gerald spread her legs gently and started a slow descent into Toni. Her breath hitched as her narrow channel accommodated his girth, while simultaneously sucking him in deeper. She watched as he closed his eyes in pleasure, glad to see he was enjoying their joining as much as she was. Though he was trying to be gentle, she used her planted feet as leverage to roll her hips up and take him deeper. This resulted in a sharp breath from Gerald, eyes flying open in awe and veneration. With a smirk, he took the hint and entered her fully.

Toni had never felt so full in her life, replete with both his member and his care. As they stayed joined completely, staring into each other's eyes, she felt something click into place that felt suspiciously like the love she'd only read about. Not wanting to dig too deeply into those emotions, Toni used a small grinding motion with her hips to let him know she'd adjusted to him being inside her. Gerald responded by pulling out of her slowly and entering back at the same speed, gradually finding his rhythm. Toni matched him stroke for stroke, letting out breathy moans and small sounds of pleasure. Trusting she was capable of more, Gerald adjusted her legs to his shoulders and found himself deeper inside what could only be described as heaven. Since Toni took to the stretch with ease, he decided to deepen the strain to bend down for a kiss. She returned his touch of the lips enthusiastically, moaning into his mouth as he continued their slow grind.

As the volume of Toni's moans increased in volume and pitch, something challenged Gerald to see how loud she was capable of getting. For his private personal challenge, he lifted out of the kiss and grabbed her calves as leverage to thrust into her at a more rapid pace. He was rewarded by a loud moan that stunned them both, but encouraged him to draw more appreciative vocalizations from Toni. She found herself moaning in earnest, causing her to use one hand to brace herself against the headboard behind her and the other over her mouth to not be heard over the cartoon in the background. With a slight chuckle, Gerald picked up speed with a determination to see how else she would try to cover up her roommate hearing Toni's pleasure.

He watched as she tried biting the side of her forearm to no avail and reached for a pillow to put over her head. Not wanting to miss her unrestrained facial expressions, he snatched the pillow away and tossed it toward the closet. Seeing his taunting smile as a competition of Gerald's, Toni squeezed her inner walls together in a kegel with her own smirk at Gerald. His eyes rolled back in ecstasy on a guttural moan and he accepted that she'd won that round in their silent sexual contest. He went back to sincerely focusing on her pleasure, enjoying the way that she matched him perfectly. Gerald focused on the symphony of sounds in the room, from the lively slapping of sweat soaked bodies, the heavy breathing coming from him, and the soft moans coming from Toni.

Soon her moans grew in size again, becoming desperate as an unavoidable orgasm grew closer. Feeling her climax coming, Gerald leaned in to plunge into her deeper and faster. Toni came harder than she could have ever anticipated, her back lifting off the bed as she threw her head back against the pillow with her eyes tightly shut. With the sheets in a death grip, she found herself moaning his name and her legs shaking from the physical exertion. Gerald slowed down his pace to let Toni come down from her orgasm gently, waiting patiently for her to open her eyes to meet his again. When they did, he raised a brow in a silent question. She laughed and nodded her head, putting her hand up to stroke his beard with adoration. He leaned into her touch, closing his eyes against all of the intense feelings he wanted to verbalize to her in that moment. Knowing it was too soon, he kissed her palm and slowly pulled out of her completely.

While Gerald climbed off the bed for a quick stretch, Toni had a brief moment to consider how she'd found herself in this moment. Though she knew that lust was definitely present in the room, she felt something much deeper settling in her soul. Before she could consider what that feeling was in earnest, Gerald guided her into a new position for them to continue. Toni was now at the edge of the bed on her hands and knees, with Gerald gently pushing her upper back down so that she was resting on her forearms with her cheek directly on the mattress. He spread her legs wider and hips higher to get the perfect position to enter her. Taking his time to allow them both to adjust to this new position, Gerald was amazed by how the experience was somehow heightened in pleasure. Gripping Toni's hips, he began the push and pull motion both of their bodies were craving.

Toni didn't think anything could top the sensual gratification she'd just experienced, but was proven wrong when Gerald found the perfect pace and she began matching it. Once again gripping the sheets, Toni found herself in absolute bliss as she focused on the wet sounds of him entering her and the slaps of her ass meeting his pelvis. This orgasm built quickly, causing immediate spasms as her pussy tried to grip his dick as tight as possible. With Gerald now moaning alongside her, Toni was more forceful in pushing back into his thrusts knowing her upcoming orgasm would hit her like a freight train. With her face pressed into the mattress, Toni screamed through her climax as it barreled its way through her.

Not allowing her any reprieve, Gerald kept up his punishing pace behind Toni as he chased his own rapture. Underneath him, he saw Toni reaching for anything to tether her to reality as she rolled from one orgasm into another. As the second was approaching, Gerald felt Toni trying to pull herself away from the barrage of pleasure. He clutched her hips tighter, using them like a lifeline while he forced her to accept what he was giving her so she could transfer her euphoria onto him. By the time the third climax was on its way, Gerald felt the tingling in his spine signaling he wouldn't be far behind her. When the orgasm hit, Toni's inner grip was tight enough to pull Gerald's own with it. Thrusting rapidly, Gerald could hardly hear Toni's screams and moans over the roar in his head. He only knew he was moaning himself because his mouth was open and he could feel the echo of noise in his throat.

As Gerald pulled out for the final time, Toni stayed limp on the bed catching her breath after the vigorous exercise. When Gerald asked if she was okay, all she could do was give a half-hearted thumbs up. He chuckled as he got rid of the condom and laid down to join her on the bed. Toni rolled her head so she was facing him with her ass still in the air. With a cheshire grin, she asked if he wanted to shower and finally head out on their first date.
