It had been nearly two weeks and Abby had continued to stay at Luka's apartment every night and he was feeling so much stronger now and he couldn't face her cooking anymore....as much as she had improved...he longed for one of his own recipes and she had no idea how to prepare any of his favourite Croatian dishes......so he had been down the market and picked up some supplies.
Abby walks through the door and immediately smells his cooking and she puts her nose up in the air and grins.
"Mmmm...something smells good...are you cooking..?
Luka is in the kitchen pouring a glass of wine and he hands one to her as she comes to look at what he is cooking.
"You are cooking one of your gastronomical adventures arn't you.."
Luka looks at her playfully and sips on his wine.
"I wanted to do something nice for and I have to get myself motivated to go back to work in a few days so I thought I would go to the shops and I would cook..."
Abby is suitably impressed and as she looks at the table setting.
"You have done a lovely job....you will make someone a good wife one day.."
Luka laughs nervously...he is trying to stay focused on preparing dinner as Abby heads upstairs to get changed and she calls down from the stairs.
"I am just going to have a quick shower...and change"
Luka turns the stove down low and wipes his hands on the towel.
"I want you...." Luka is talking out loud and then realises that it's not the kitchen where he wants to be...it's the shower.
Abby washs her hair and stands under the shower as she rinses out her shampoo and her eyes are closed as Luka opens the shower screen door.
She opens her eyes startled at first ..and then curious as to what he is doing.
"Luka... you scared me ..what do you want..?"
He reaches out to touch her body and gently traces the outline of her nipple and his eyes gaze at her for a reaction and he steps forward and the shower stream hits him and his clothes become wet.."
Abby pushes his hand away.."Luka you are fully clothed ...what are you doing..?"
Luka steps into the shower ..still fully clothed and grabs her into a tight embrace and starts to kiss her..she responds and melts into his arms.. her naked body draped against his.
"Abby I want to make love to you...I have since the first night you stayed here...."
He grabs at the taps and turns them off while at the same time she tries to undress him and there hands busily try to free him from the clothing that separates their bodies.
Luka's wet clothes are in a pile a the bottom of the shower as
they both step out onto the mat.
Abby stands on her tip toes as Luka kisses her on the neck and starts to work his way down and then suddely he picks her up and carries her into the bedroom and lies her gently down on the bed.
"I want to be able to be the man that you know Abby and be strong... I feel strong now and I am going to make love to you.."
Abby smiles "I want you to ....but only if your up to it.."
Luka takes that as a challange and immediately he moves down her body and begins to pleasure her .
She arches back and writhes in ecstasy as he eagerly satisfies her and then he moves back up and begins to kiss her on the lips ..she feels his heart beat against hers as he lies on top of her..suddenly he rolls her over and she is on top....his hand slides down and finds what it is looking for and she reciprocates
by grabbing his hardness and stroking it with her hand.
"Oh my god ...I want you so much.." Luka groans as he buries himself in her hair and she gently guides him inside her and she moans softly as he finally enters her.
The make love endlessly for hours and each time Abby is sure that Luka will run out of steam ...and still he seems to be stronger each time.
Eventually their bodies collapse and the sweat from Luka's brow runs down the side of his face and he wipes it a way and sighs.
"I can't tell you how long I have wanted to do that ...when I was in Africa ..I thought about you and one night I woke up and I had been dreaming about making love to you and I looked down and my penis was as hard as a rock and I could not go back to sleep and we are in close quarters and you know...I couldn't do anything about it and I tried and I tried to make it go down and eventually I just ran out the back and sat in one of the jeeps and you know....batted one out.."
Abby looks at him partly digusted and partly amused.
"I feel so used Luka...thanks.."
Luka realises his story and his lousy timing..he grabs her before she clambers out of bed.
"Abby...I'm sorry...I meant to say something else.."
she stops moving and looks at him.
Abby I have always had strong feelings for you and when I went to Africa ..you had just split with Carter and I wasn't sure how to be around you....friends ..more than friends....I didn't know and the whole time I was away I kept thinking about you and how I longed to hold you in my arms and make love to you and be with you again and I was worried that when I got back you were going to say you just wanted to be friends."
Abby looks at him and sees the anguish in his eyes.
"I am in love with you Luka...don't you know that..?"
To be continued.....
