Saturday -- Week fifteen
WHO: Ruby and Bear
WHAT: She's coming to check on the addition to Bear's treehouse!
WHERE: Bear's treehouse
WHEN: Saturday afternoon
RATING: TBD
STATUS: Incomplete // Closed

There was one thing that Ruby had never thought she'd find in the new direction of the world. And that was love. She'd felt more than certain that there was something about her or some strange reason...something that would keep her from finding the one true love she'd been wanting since her days as a litle girl. But that just wasn't true. Ruby had liked Bear for a long time, practically since she'd first met him. And somehow or another, those feelings had blossomed into an unspoken sort of love, expressed in blushes and shy glances when she was sure he wasn't looking. Now, though, things were different. Bear had told her that he cared for her. Loved her. It sent her completely over the moon. The smile on her face hadn't really gone away since then. And Tink saw that too. She was a smart little girl, and her questions only showed what she knew. 'Did he kiss you today?' or 'Do you miss him?'. Most times Ruby didn't really know what to say, considering it wasn't common to hear those sorts of things from a young girl!

But it was true, she missed Bear when she wasn't around him. Even more now that she knew that he cared for her like she did for him. Still, it didn't keep her from going about her work. If someone called her because of an injury, she was there administering first aid. She was going through her medical supplies, almost taking inventory and seeing what she could replace with things she could make by hand. And, of course, she was checking up on Nova, seeing that she was getting further along in her pregnancy. That was of big concern, of course, seeing that she was the mother of their tribe leader's child. And the first known woman in Sundance to be having a child. Ruby wanted to make sure that Nova and the baby would be healthy. It was her responsibility. And yet...she couldn't help but be jealous of Nova. Because, of course, Ruby had wanted to find the love of her life. But she also wanted a family of her own. A child of her own.

She'd just finished off her afternoon of inventory, setting things aside that she knew that she'd need in the coming months when Nova had her baby (namely one of the precious few syringes of morphine that she had) when her thoughts drifted back to Bear. Knowing that Tink was out playing with her friends, she changed her clothes. Her sweats were exchanged for worn in and terribly comfortable black jeans and her big, oversized t-shirt was swapped for a pretty red tank top leftover from her teenage days. Because really, she wanted to look at least a little nice. Not like she'd just rolled out of bed.

With a smile on her face, she walked over to Bear's treehouse with her hands in her pockets. She heard the sound of him working inside on the addition that would be Tink's room. Still, she didn't want to just barge in. So, as soon as she climbed up the ladder, she knocked on the door. "Bear?"

Cloud Nine... Bear had never really gotten the point of that phrase. Were there eight other clouds he was supposed to know about? What levels of joy and happiness did they represent? How many times in his life had he sat in the misty depths of each one? Whatever the story behind such a silly expression, Bear couldn't keep the thought running through his head- Ruby's love had shot him straight up into the sky and landed him smack-dab in the middle of Cloud Nine.

He couldn't keep the smile off his face. He was tired and grimy and covered in wood shavings and dust. But he couldn't wipe away his rapture at knowing that Tink's room was almost finished. He'd hammered and pegged and fit every board together seamlessly. There were no nails sticking out of the walls because Bear had always used wooden pegs and dowels to connect everything, rather than wasting precious metal. He'd done what he could to sand everything smooth, knowing that Tink often ran around with no shoes on, like himself. He'd even pieced together a new bed frame, one that was sturdy, rustic, and strong, like the rest of his furniture, so that it would last as she grew and so that he could sit on her bed and not have to worry about it collapsing...

All he had left to do was add the little details that would turn this little room into Tink's new home- things like carvings in the trim, characters from his ancestor's legends, beautiful feathers and spiderwebs. He found a soft buckskin that he'd had hidden away and was in the process of spreading it over the floor when he heard a soft knock on his door and his name being called by the voice of an angel. Walking quietly, Bear snuck to the front door and sharply pulled it open, grabbing Ruby by the waist and pulling her to his chest for a hard, quick kiss. His smile was radiant, his dark eyes warm when he pulled back to look at her. He ran his fingers through her hair as he held her,

"You never have to knock on that door again, mé'oo'o."

She was more than excited to be moving in with Bear. And Tink felt the same. Each day, Ruby would pass by Bear's treehouse and each day they'd seen progress. The room began to take shape from the outside. And the imagination could run wild with things that would go on the inside of that room. Tink was rather hoping she'd get characters from the stories Bear told her on her walls. It'd help her remember them all! It was nice to see the little girl so excited about something. It hadn't been that way in awhile, considering there were only so many new things in the world they now lived in. She was greatly looking forward to her brand new room and was even trying to think up ways to thank Bear for building it for her. Ruby would have to thank him as well, of course. But she had other ways of doing that...

Tink's room wasn't the main focus of her thoughts, however. No, her mind was occupied with thoughts of seeing Bear. Thoughts of how much she wanted to kiss him or how much she wanted for him to hold her close. And those thoughts were definitely at home in the mind of a woman in love and was very much on Cloud 9. Ruby waited patiently in front of the door, not really hearing any movement inside the house. And then, all at once, the door was open and Bear was taking her by the waist and pulling her into his chest. She kissed him back when he kissed her, smiling just as much one their lips were parted. The feeling of his fingers running through her hair was very soothing. Something that she liked.

"Good to know," she said simply, smiling up at him. Not able to resist, she pressed her lips to his again, this time slightly longer than the last. "I missed you, you know."

"And...what does that mean? The word you called me." She tried to pronounce it correctly, but she rather thought she hadn't succeeded.

Oh it felt so good to have her in his arms again! The smell of her invaded his nose, her smile was all his eyes could focus on, and the pulse at her neck made the tips of his fingers tingle. He'd hoped he'd get to show Tink her room today, hoped that maybe Ruby would bring her with her if she stopped by, but this- this was so much better. Now he had her all to himself. Tink could see her room some other time.

Bear chuckled against Ruby's lips when she kissed him again, the deep, rich sound vibrating through his lips and into hers. He loved that she couldn't seem to get enough because it meant he wasn't the only one. Wrapping a piece of her hair around one long finger, Bear kept her face close to his, leaning down to rest his forehead againt hers.

"mé'oo'o-o'ha'ohá. I missed you too, sweetheart." Releasing her hair, bear pulled her farther into the house, towards the table, and sat her down in a chair. Walking to his wood-burning stove, he began preparations for tea, motioning to Ruby, asking if she'd like any.

It felt wonderful just being in his arms. It was always like that. His touch was just so gentle and soothing to her. It made her feel safe. At home. She reveled in everything about him. The way he smelled of warm woodsmoke and just that general manly scent. The way his eyes lit up when he smiled. Everything that was just so uniquely Bear. She had wanted to bring Tink by to see her new room, but she had to admit that it was even nicer to just be alone with Bear. To have him all to herself after missing him. Tink could always see her room some other time. Until then, Ruby was going to enjoy being with the man that she loved and wanted to spend her life with.

The sound of his laugh was so nice. Deep and rich, causing a vibration against her lips. She definitely couldn't get enough of him. Not now and probably not ever. So he most certainly wasn't the only one who couldn't keep their lips to themselves. She smiled when he wrapped a strand of her hair around his finger and rested his forehead against her own.

The words he said just flowed together, even if they were entirely foreign to her. They were pretty. "So it means sweetheart..." She'd have to put that away for later so she could learn how to say it properly. What fun was it if she couldn't say such endearments back to him with words from his own culture. "We both missed each other then, hm? Not that that's a bad thing by any means of the word." Ruby followed after him as she was pulled into the house and towards the big table in his kitchen. She sat down in the chair, but there was no denying that she was antsy. It was difficult, keeping her hands to herself when she very much didn't want to. She nodded when he silently asked if she wanted tea.

But as soon as his back was turned again and he was continuing with the tea, she was up and out of her chair and walking over to him. Her arms wrapped around him from behind, her hands on his chest and her body pressed close to his. "I'm sorry but...it's incredibly difficult to be all the way over there when you're over here." And there were several other things that she would have liked to do...things that were nearly so innocent. She just couldn't help thinking the way she did. It was a habit hard engrained into her mind from her younger days.

She'd picked up on the meaning of his endearment and Bear could have sworn he felt his heart do somersaults in his chest. She cared enough to pay attention to the details of his language, something that was one of the most important things in his life. She appreciated it, thought it was beautiful just like he did. It made him want to kiss her again. But he really did need to keep his hands to himself. She was sure to think he was a hormonal teenager if he acted on his impulses.

And then she walked up behind him and wrapped him in her arms. With her entire body pressed to his back, it was not safe for him to be so close to his wood-burning stove. He tried extremely hard to restrain himself just long enough to put tea and water into the wooden-bowl-like cups that he used and actually managed to turn around with them in his hands, walk her towards the table and pin her there as he placed the cups down behind her. He managed to do all that before giving into his instincts and capturing her lips with his. As he locked her into a kiss, he pinned her hands to either side of the table behind her, careful to avoid the hot cups of tea as he pinned her hips to the edge with his. He pulled back just long enough to lock his intense gaze with hers.

"mé'oo'o, you shouldn't have said that... You know how hard it is to keep my hands off you? You forget you're in love with a savage." And then his lips were hard and hot on hers again.

Of course she cared enough to pay attention to the details of the language. She'd heard him speak the words before and they always sounded so beautiful as compared with simple English. She appreciated his culture and wanted to hold it near and dear, just as he did. Still, his language and his culture weren't at the forefront of her mind. No...her thoughts were going other places. Her hands were itching to touch him and she wanted to have her lips pressed against his. Him being close, but not close enough, was a huge temptation to her. And really, the last thing she needed was temptation, unless she wanted to be acting like the teenage girl who was popular with all of the boys back in high school. But could you really blame her? Her impulses were very strong and they begged to be acted upon. But she refrained.

At least enough to keep from throwing herself at him completely. With her arms wrapped around him like that, her body was pressed closely to his. Flush against his back. She didn't let go of him as he finished with the tea, only loosening her hold long enough for him to turn around. She walked backwards over to the table. Of course, it wasn't hard for Bear to pin Ruby there against the table. And then came to part she was waiting for. She kissed him back very eagerly, even as he pinned her hands on the table top behind her and his hips pressed to hers, further pinning her to the edge of the table. When he pulled back, she honestly hadn't wanted the kiss to end. Still, she looked up into those intense dark eyes, a smile still on her lips.

That smile curled into a bit of smirk when he said what he did. It was true, she was in love with a savage. But she was loving every minute of it. What girl wouldn't when it involved having a man who could barely keep his hands off her? When he kissed her again, she kissed him back. She deepened the kiss after a few moments, her tongue teasing along his bottom lip and then along his tongue. She pressed her body more closely to his, leaving not one bit of space in between them.

She was meant to be kissed on a table- so succulent and delicious that she belonged on the desert menu. Her lips were so tasty that he had to devour the smirk that pulled at their corners. He had to flatten his chest against hers, leaning her slightly over the table and tracing her tongue with his, nibbling at those decadent lips. He had to capture both of Ruby's wrists in one of his massive hands and pin them over her head as he lay her down on the table, her back flattened against the rich wood as his newly freed hand smashed the wooden cups behind her to the ground. Parting her legs, Bear slid between them and used his body to pin her down to the table, running his large, calloused hands from her slender wrists, down her arms, over her sides and to her waist then back up again. His lips ventured away from her mouth, down the smooth column of her throat, over the curve of her shoulder and past the tiny strap of the red shirt she was wearing. His teeth gently found the skin just above the neckline of that worn, red, garment, teasing at the rise of her breasts, tasting the sweet skin that disappeared beneath her top. He wanted to devour every inch of her, contemplated doing just that while he paid special attention to the dip in the middle of his chest, teasing and tasting the shadow there with his tongue, teeth, and lips. Could he do what he wanted, right here, right now? He didn't want to risk moving to fast for her... He didn't want her to think that all he wanted was this delicious body of hers... but while his mind was telling him he should slow down and wait, his body was telling him to take what her lush and ravishing body, mind, and spirit had to offer him.

Ruby certainly didn't mind the things that he did. Not in the slightest. She pressed her body closer to his as he started to tilt her back slightly over the table's edge, her tongue and her lips still dancing against his. She didn't resist when he took her wrists, holding them both in one of his hands and pinning them down over her head. By then her back had met the hard wood of the table and she was laying down as the cups clattered to the ground. But that was hardly her main concern. Ruby parted her legs, arching her back and pressing her body harder against his as he completely pinned her down to the table. The feeling of his hands running down from her wrists down to her waist was positively sinful and she found herself wishing that there wasn't fabric keeping his touch from the rest of her skin. But as if that wasn't amazing, his lips started to move down her neck and over her shoulder only to find the skin right above the neckline of her tank top. She couldn't help the moan that passed her lips as he began to tease the skin at the rise of her breasts. With her hands still being help above her head, there wasn't as much that she could do. Still, she pressed her body as close as she possibly could and began to grind her hips up against his. Another, slightly deeper moan came at the feeling of his lips, teeth and tongue teasing at the dip between her breasts. There were no words to describe how much she wanted to give into her temptations. To let him take in every inch of her. It was what she wanted and from his behavior, she knew he wanted it too. It wouldn't be moving too fast, considering that she was used to much more of a...fast pace when it came to men. She knew that Bear just wasn't interested in her body. But right then she certainly wouldn't have minded him taking her completely and totally. After all, she belonged to him in her entirety. Soul, mind and, of course, body. "You are far too good at teasing me, you know that?" she breathed. It was taking all of her restraint to not tell him to take her. Even though she wanted it so badly.

There were too many layers of clothing between them, to much fabric between Bear and all of Ruby's luscious skin. He had to let go of her wrists just to pull his t-shirt over his head, his hair faling in soft waves across his shoulders. He had to start from her waist and slowly, langoriously, push her shirt up her body, his fingers digging lightly into her tender skin and raking the red fabric away from all the sighs he wanted to see. He had to stop for a moment after he pulled her shirt over her head, just to appreciate the soft black lace that encased those delicious breasts of hers. He had to ignore the way her hips were grinding so incredibly against his, just so he didn't ravage her on the table right then and there. He had to lean down and kiss her, trapping her moans with his lips as he teased her nipples through the black lace. He kneaded those glorious lobes, savoring the way the fit into the palms of his hands and loving the sounds Ruby made when he squeezed a nipple just enough to cause friction in its succulent prison. He couldn't help but slowly, staedily thrust against her swaying hips- the pressure was so divine that he had to let his hips move just to find some minute relief.

With one and torturing her sweet, succulent breast, Bear dug his other hand into the silky depth of her hair- pulling back her head so he could love the smooth column of her throat- feel the moans she made as he traced the length of it with his tongue. His hips kept moving, as did his fingers and his mouth. There was no way he could stop himself now. He was an addict. And he needed his fix.

She wanted to be skin to skin with him. Feel the way her body and his really meshed and fit together with no fabric between them. Once her wrists were released, she watched him pull off his shirt, taking in the view of all of those hardened muscles she longed to touch with her own hands. But before that, she needed to be rid of her shirt. Rid of the barrier of sorts that kept her from experiencing his touches and caresses completely. The feeling of his fingertips against her skin as he pushed her shirt up sent little shivers up and down her spine. Her eyes were full of hunger and fire as she looked up at him when he stopped. Hopefully he liked what he saw and it pleased him. When he leaned down to kiss her, Ruby kissed him back thoroughly. Her fingers slipped into his hair, running along his scalp and through the strands. Still, it wasn't enough of a distraction to keep her from moaning against his lips as he teased her nipples through the soft material of her bra. Her breasts had always been a weak spot for her, as Bear could surely tell from the way she leaned into his touch and moaned in reaction to the sweet friction and pressure. Oh how she would not have minded him just ravaging her on the tabletop. Or anywhere else, for that matter. She was more than turned on by then and, to be perfectly honest, she needed him right then. Her hips met his steady thrusts, her right leg coming up to hook over his hip and pull him even closer. The pressure was absolutely delicious. Still, it wasn't nearly as good as the real thing would be, she was more than sure.

Stopping herself or stopping him was the absolute last thing on her mind right then. Not with the way his hand teased her breast and his lips and tongue traced down the hollow of her throat. Ruby moaned again, still moving her hips against his and running one hand through his hair, the other running down his side against the muscles she could touch. It was almost sinful, how good everything felt. And yet she was loving every second of it. It was more than evident with the way her body moved and reacted to his. There was no turning back. And she didn't want to.

Since the day he'd had his gumption and his foolhardy ways burned away with the skin of his back, Bear had been careful with his words and with his self-control. He was calm- he was cool- sure he was a bit of a goof... but he never put himself or those around him in positions of risk. And now, here on his kitchen table, he was about to lose his grip for the first time in years. The little moans-her fingers in his hair- her hand against his side- not to mention the delicious friction between their hips... Ruby was driving him absolutely insane.

And there was still far too much clothing between them. He slipped his hand under her, tracing the soft fabric of her bra to its clasp and struggling for a moment in his haste to get it off. But when it came off, when those breasts were bared for only him to see- If Ruby had every doubted he thought her beautiful, she wouldn't when she caught the look in his eyes: all dark fire, hunger and adoration. The sight of her was like throwing gasoline on the already blazing fire of his passion. It sent his fingers into a flying frenzy, touching every part of her that he could reach as they raced to get her long, slender legs out of all that soft black denim. He had to get his hands on all of her, needed to feel that soft wt heat that was driving him out of his mind. He moves were quick, hot, and frantic- the noises coming from his throat, the low growls and murmurs sounded pained and out of control. His moves didn't slow, didn't soften, until he'd found what he'd been looking for. His long, calloused fingers slipped beneath Ruby's panties and were welcomed by soft, scorching folds of the sweetest skin Bear had ever felt. With His fingers inside her, Bear's breathing slowed a little and he pulled her face to his so he could kiss one delicious set of lips while he slowly pumped his fingers into the other.

Too much fabric between them. Too much clothing keeping them from being completely skin to skin. It was starting to bother her, but with her position there wasn't as much she could do about it. Hopefully he had the same opinion and would do something about it. Her back arched up off the table when she felt his hand slip under her, looking for the clasp to her bra. Soon enough, though, it was off of her, leaving her entire upper body bare and exposed to him. Sun-kissed skin ran uninterrupted by any piece of clothing. Ruby raised her eyes to his, finding the look there to be absolutely exhilerating. Such hunger and passion...it made her feel wanted. Desired. It was exciting, to be sure, and only made her want to give into Bear more. After that, his touches became quicker, reaching different parts of her until he'd gotten her out of her jeans. She couldn't help the moans and almost purrs that tumbled from her lips. It didn't distract her from the sounds he was making, though. He almost sounded...animalistic as he rushed to undress her further.

His next action she had not been expecting. She felt his fingers slip under the soft material of her panties. But when they were inside of her, she couldn't help the bit of a gasp that dissolved into a moan right after. It had been such a long time since she'd been touched that way. And it just felt so good. She raised her hips a bit, trying to get him deeper so she could feel him more. Her lips were eager against his, her tongue teasing along his. She reveled in the little waves of pleasure rolling over her. But she wanted him to be able to feel the same thing.

Still keeping a hand in his hair, her other hand ran down his abs. But her touch didn't stop there. No, her fingers slipped lower, nimbly undoing the button and the zipper on his jeans. She tugged a little bit at the waist of his boxers before letting her hand slip in. Instead of fully touching him, though, she simply gave a slow and teasing run of her fingers over the hardness there. Testing the waters, you might say.

His ancestors had been considered savages and with Ruby under him, moans escaping from her sweet lips, he could most definately imagine why. When she dared venture south of his waistband, Bear found himself growling so loudly, he could have sworn he'd been raised by his namesake. At the same time, he went stock still, unable to bring himself past the esctacy of Ruby's touch. He longed to give back the pleasure that such gentle contact caused in him. But the sensations coursing through him set all systems on lockdown. With one hand braced on the table to support his weight and the other buried in Ruby's hair, Bear had to bite gently into the skin of her shoulder to keep himself from yelling and scaring all the birds from the trees. He didn't want to move while she was gracing him with such exquisite touches, and at the same time he was commanding himself to move, to reciprocate, to fulfill her every need. But he just couldn't bring himself to move. He was at the mercy of those glorious hands.

To be truthful, his growling had been entirely unexpected. Still, she was glad that she was able to make him feel good. As good as he was making her feel. Ruby felt him stop moving and she didn't continue with her touches just yet. But her fingertips stayed where they were, just barely touching him. The bite to her shoulder caused her teeth to sink into her bottom lip a bit, but it most certainly wasn't bad. Actually, it encouraged her to continue. She let her fingers wrap completely around his hardened length, finding that the feel of him in her hand only made the anticipation increase for what she hoped would come soon. Steadily and rather teasingly, Ruby stroked him. Again and again. Her other hand pulled his face to hers so that she could kiss him again, her lips and tongue thoroughly exploring his. It was about time. She'd been wanting to tease him like that...

Bear hoped he hadn't scared her with his growl. But the way she was touching him... he hoped he had driven her this crazy with his hands. He managed to unlock his jaw- to kiss the soft skin of Ruby's shoulder where his teeth had left small pink marks. The rest of him was frozen solid though, even as lava flowed through every cell of his body. Her hand started moving a bit more surely and slowly his muscles started melting. By the time she pulled his face to hers, his hands were traveling slowly up and down her sides, pulling her hips closer to his inch by inch. he was going to take her. Here and now. But being the man that he was, he couldn't just take her. His voice was so low is rumbled through his body when he spoke, almost painfully, to the beautiful woman beneath him.

"Ruby- I want to- but I won't if you don't want..." He couldn't finish. The movement of her hand was driving all rational thought from his mind.

He hadn't scared her. In actuality, she found it rather sexy. And it was assurance that she was driving him just as crazy as he'd been driving her. She felt him kiss her shoulder righ over the marks his teeth had left behind just moments before. Other than that, he wasn't moving. But that was easily fixed. She continued with the stroking, always teasing and sure of what she was doing. Sure enough, he started moving again, his hands running up and down her sides. Her hips were pulled closer to his and it only increased that anticipation that had had a hold on her since the beginning. She wanted him to take her and she honestly wouldn't have minded if he just did it, without asking her. But Bear was as much gentleman as he was savage. Something she loved immensely about him. "I want to," she said, never more sure of anything in her life.

Ruby leaned up a bit then, placing a kiss by his ear before whispering, "I want you to take me, Bear. Please...please take me." Her words were matched with an extremely teasing stroke of her hand along his hardened length.
