“I’m nervous,” Katie whispered.

“Nervous about what?” Anna asked, hopping on her twin sized bed in the guest room of Katie’s parents house.  Anna had been invited to make the snowy trek to Katie’s parents house during their extended college winter break on the promise of the most amazing Christmas she’s ever had.  She was certainly excited about the prospect.

“You know, ‘cause tonight is my parents holiday party, and well...<i>Justin’s</i> going to be here.”    

Anna watched Katie nervously button several buttons on the most hideous holiday sweater that she had ever seen.   Granted, tonight <i>was</i> their infamous “ugly sweater party,” so it wasn’t that out of place.  It was just hideous, that’s all.

“And you’re wearing that?” Anna retorted.  She didn’t know who Justin was, but he sounded important.  While Anna and Katie were close, considering they were suitemates, they hadn’t quite had time to really learn all of the absolute details about one another.  Regardless, this Justin character sounded much too important to allow Katie to wear a sweater that looked like it belonged buried in the 70s.

Katie spun around quickly, abandoning her reflection in the full length mirror with fervor as she sighed dramatically.  “I know!  I hate this stupid party...”

Anna couldn’t help but laugh a little at her desperation.  “Wow, this <i>Justin</i> must be really something.  I swear, two weeks before we left the dorms, you were all gungho about how awesome this ugly sweater party was.  How everyone in town came over, how everyone talked about it the entire year...” she smirked, pretending to drone on and on by repeating all of Katie’s boasts.

Katie swiftly interrupted.  “That’s before I knew he was coming to town.”  Anna just rolled her eyes.  

“Alright, I’ll bite.  Who is he?  I mean, you dragged me all the way to your hometown for Christmas, I might as well get the download if I’m going to give you advice...”  Anna replied, flipping her long brown hair over her shoulder.  She was wearing a sweater, which to her was, in fact, ugly--but it wasn’t <i>that</i> ugly.

Katie sighed dejectedly before finally plopping down on the bed next to her.  “I didn’t drag you.  Your parents were out of town, and it wouldn’t be right if you spent Christmas alone.  Besides, you wanted to come, remember?”

Anna laughed again.  “Fine, fine.  I wanted to be here.  Who cares.  So, who’s the boy?”  Anna clapped her hands with excitement as she waited to see what Katie had to say.

Slightly twisting her fingers around in nervousness, Katie groaned a little as she avoided Anna’s eye contact.  “He’s only like...my crush.  Like...<i>the guy</i>.  You know, that one you always pined after in high school but never gave you the time of day?”

“You mean like JC for me?”  She watched Katie nod.  JC was her college crush.  He was best friends with Katie’s actual roommate, but at this stage, it was just a wishful romance.  “Well, what are you going to do about it? And you’re sure he’s coming tonight?  I mean, how do you know for sure?”

“I heard it from a friend of a friend...” Katie uttered, a little unsure now that she had to actually verbalize it to someone.

“That sounds reliable,” Anna mumbled, her eyes following suit in a completely sarcastic manner.

The petite form shrugged.  “I know, but even the thought of him coming just...it’s overwhelming.  I mean, this is the first time he’s been in town since...well, we graduated, really.  Now I’m regretting this sweater that we bought at Goodwill before we left.”  Katie tugged at the hem and stared regretfully down at the stuffed reindeer protruding from her chest area.

They both looked at each other and laughed slightly.

“Well, you were the one that wanted to find <i>the ugliest sweater</i> known to man.  This was a great accomplishment yesterday...today?  Not so much.  C’mon, we’d better get you looking as hot as possible in this if this is going to go at all the way you want it to...” Anna trailed, grasping at Rudolph’s nose with a chuckle.  “We’ve got a lot of work to do.”

“Hey!  It seemed like a good idea at the time!”

“Reindeer protruding from your boobs is never a good idea, Katie.  Have I taught you nothing?” Anna laughed.  The girls, despite the worry hanging overhead, continued to laugh as they finished preparing for their evening.

She looked up in awe once they were nearing the clearing.  It was dark out, and the only light was the slight luminescence of the moon shining their path through the wooden path Justin was taking them on.  She had no idea where they were, but now that she had adjusted to the darkness, she was beginning to see their destination.

“Where are we?”

“You’ll see,” he responded, just above a soft mumble.

Their footsteps cracked in the few millimeters of snow that had fallen since they had been outside, and she was definitely curious.

After a few minutes, they neared the lake that she had remembered quite fondly.  She had no idea that they were even that close.  Granted, they had been walking for a good 15 minutes now, but it didn’t seem that far.  Perhaps it was because she was with him.

“The lake?” she smiled.

“Didn’t anyone ever tell you that curiousity killed the cat?  You’d be dead by now if you were a feline.”

She chuckled.  “It’s a good thing I’m human, then.”

“Lucky for me, or we’d have problems.”

“Have?  I thought we already did,” she chuckled, letting her fingers slightly grasp at his a little tighter.  Her feet were starting to get cold in the converse she was wearing.  She hadn’t been prepared for a trek through the woods.

“Funny,” he smirks mutedly.  “For that, your ass is getting punished.”  In one swift motion, he gently picked her up and threw her body delicately over his shoulder.  His hand firmly planted on her ass, and he couldn’t help but chuckle when she started beating on his back.

While she was protesting, he made his way to his log cabin.  It had always been his secret place, and unbeknownst to her, the place that he had always spied on her in the summer. He built it with his bare hands when he was 12, and since it was so special, he had hired someone to come in and make some refinements.  

When he finally shut the door behind him, he gently placed her down.  He watched her curiously as she was about to protest until she realized they were inside.  

“What is this place?”

“You and your questions.  Does it matter?”

“Yes,” she laughed, looking up at him.  “You didn’t bring me here to murder and kill me, did you?  I saw Lovely Bones, and as much as I had a crush on you in high school, I like my mundane life.”

He chuckled, and then heard her words. “Wait, you had a crush on me in high school?  When?”

She shrugged nonchalantly as she started to turn around to take in her surroundings.  The cabin had obviously recently been renovated, and it was fairly nice.  It had a huge living room area, a small makeshift kitchen in one of the corners, and a room off to the side that was glowing slightly, obviously illuminated by some kind of light.

“Umm...Katie?” he asked, trying to get her attention so that she could finish answering his question.

She smirked, snapping her head back to him, and allowing her coy smile to take shape on her face.  “Who’s the gabby questioner now, Mister?”

He couldn’t help but smile and shook his head.

“Seriously, though.  What is this place?  Why are we here?” she asked.

He shrugged.  “I was hoping I would run into you in the party, to just catch up.  But you...you were so stunning, despite...how absolutely horrendous this sweater is.  Seriously, it’s so bad.”  They laughed a little as he smiled.  “I just...I took a chance.  I had always had a crush on you in high school, and we were catching up...and the snow.  I just...I had wanted to bring you back here to talk, that’s all.”

“That’s all?” Katie asked, a slight disappointment in her voice.

Justin could feel the lump forming in his throat.  “Yeah, of course.  I mean...unless...”

She shrugged, both of them getting a little shy at the prospect of more.

“That kiss...” they both started.

They both stared up into each other’s eyes.  She wanted to ask him about the cabin, why it was there, and why he decided to take her here when he hadn’t seen her forever.  And he wanted to ask her about the crush she had on him, and why she had never said anything.  But answers weren’t really needed when you could feel the passion in their gaze.  

Before either of them knew it, their lips were pressed passionately together, smooshing Rudolph firmly between them as hands started to grasp at anything possible.  Justin swiftly bent down, his tongue gently swiping against her lip to beg for entrance at the same time his strong, masculine hands started grabbing for her ass.

In one swift motion, he had lifted her up, gently guiding her tights-covered thighs around his waist.  Their lips were entangled together, noses like rubber as they passionately expressed their long-overdue, pent up feelings.

Once Justin felt his kneecaps hit the bed, he gently laid her down before kneeling on the bed in the bedroom.  He hovered over her slightly as he reached to pull his sweater off.  It was then that Katie noticed the space heater and the Christmas tree in the corner.

“Are you staying here?” she asked, concerned.

“No,” he laughed.  “I just...though it would be more welcoming this way.  Besides, I have a present to give you later.”

She made a face.  “I thought you were my present?”

“Hmm, should have thought of that.  Would have been much cheaper,” he laughed before falling shirtless down to the bed.

His muscular body hovered over hers effortlessly.  While every ounce of his being wanted to just rip her clothes off right then and there, he also wanted to cherish her.  He had been longing for her for so long, that he certainly wasn’t going to ruin an opportunity to make love to her.

Starting at her lips, he kissed her a few short, subtle times.  Then, he slightly dipped his head, allowing the tip of his nose to slowly caress her jawline, letting his lips dip down to suck on her neck over so slightly.  His hands, slightly rough from the cold weather, slid beneath her sweater, feeling her skin slightly tremble beneath his touch.

“You okay, baby?”

“I’m fine,” she whispered.  He could tell that she was struggling with the pleasure, but that was exactly what he wanted.  

He bent his head a little further down and began nipping at her collarbone while his hands began to push the sweater up her body.  He only broke contact with her long enough to pull the sweater over her head, taking a few moments to bask in the soft color of her skin under the pale moon light, mixed with Christmas tree ornaments.

“Wow,” he whispered.  His deep blue cerulean eyes pierced hers, both of them twinkling from the lack of light.  “You are so beautiful.”

He really couldn’t belief how silky and milky white her skin was.  He slowly leaned his head down, letting his soft, supple lips attach to her nipples.  He sucked on them slightly until he felt them harden in his teeth, while his left hand moved down to work on her jeans.  He didn’t start unbuttoning her pants just yet, and instead, allowed his fingertips to slightly dance just above the hem.  He loved feeling her stomach tremble beneath him.

“Justin...” she whimpered.  “Please...”

He could feel her heartbeat racing, pulsing through her veins.  And he could tell by the way that she was writhing that she could barely contain herself.  He wondered how long it had been for her, and if it had been as long as it had been for him.  It was so hard when all he could think about was her.

“Don’t worry, honey.  I’m going to take care of you...” he mumbled, his teeth slightly grazing against her nipple before switching to the other one.  He allowed his free hand to replace where his mouth had been previously, making sure to keep her slightly warm in the chilled evening air.

Katie couldn’t take it anymore and let an audible moan pass her lips before arching her back.  She was desperately trying to get his hand beneath the hem of her jeans.  She could tell her panties were already dripping wet.  It was almost too good to be true.

She felt him continue his assault, moving the tip of his nose teasingly down her torso, stopping painfully at her belly button to continue to teas her.  She almost lost it when she felt his teeth starting to undo the button to her fly, and her back arched slightly.  The pleasure he was giving her was definitely sweet torture.

He took less time discarding her pants, but gingerly took a few minutes to tease and nibble on her inner thighs and knees, just to drive her crazy.

He paused at her center, staring up the length of her body to catch her eyes before burying his nose in between her legs.  He let his long, pointy tongue smooth its way up and down the now soaked cotton before both hands splayed across her ass, both lifting her up and pulling the panties off all in one swift motion.  He didn’t even bother pulling them all the way off, allowing them to pool at her knees as he buried his nose deeper in between her folds.

“You taste sweet baby, did you know that?”

He smiled when he heard her whimper, and he continued to bury his tongue.  He started with the outer labia, making sure to lap up the juices, and to create a few of his own, before starting to dip his tongue in and out of her folds.

At this point, he could feel her fingers starting to tangle into his hair, and her legs spreading further apart.  He nestled himself comfortably between them, grabbing her hips with both hands and pulling her closer.  He was so hard that he couldn’t help slightly gyrating his hips against the bed, needing to feel the friction as he moved his tongue to her clit.

“Justin, oh god.  Please...just...fuck.”

“Just fuck?  I could do that, but it wouldn’t be as fun.  I want to make love to you,” he whispered.”  He continued lapping and sucking until she just about had her orgasm, and then he pulled away.

“Seriously?” she whined.  

It didn’t take him long to slip out of his jeans and his boxers.  In fact his hips were skinny enough that he could just push them down.  He also took the time to pull her panties completely off before he nestled his hips in between her legs.  His strong, lean arms held him effortlessly just above her.

He was about to enter her, but was stopped when he felt a cool touch around the thickness of his penis.  The unexpected sensation nearly made him lose it, but he took a few staggered breaths before coming back around to solidarity.

“What are you doing?” he asked.

“Teasing you like you teased me,” she whimpered.  She placed the tip of his penis at her entrance and continued slide him around her wetness.  She allowed him to slide in slightly, until all of his muscled tightened due to the restricted access, and then would glide her nails, ever so gently, down his shaft.  She loved watching him shudder.

“Holy, fuck.”

And just as quickly as she teased him, she pulled away.  She grabbed his hips in a split second and pulled him to her, forcing his long, thick cock deep into her warm abyss.  Both of them howled in pleasure.

Katie arched her back and tried to grip whatever she could of the sheets.  She had never been with a guy his size before, and she certainly wasn’t used to the intensity of his touch, or his gaze.  Eye contact was usually a no-no with her, but with him, she couldn’t look anywhere else.

Neither of them moved for a few minutes, and they just stared.  Their heartbeats, both erratic, slowly calmed into a mono synchronous movement.  They were breathing as one, sharing one single circulatory system as their lips moved to touch in a tender kiss.

Justin finally couldn’t hold back any more, and he slowly began to move inside of her.  He could feel the tip of his penis getting lost into her soft folds, and it was so much sweeter than he imagined.  Her touch was electric, and it took everything inside of him not to just pound into oblivion, because that’s what his body wanted.  But his heart, his heart wanted something different.

He stared into her eyes, continuing his soft, yet intense motion as the passion continued to build.  Her hips met his rhythmically, and it was almost too much for both of them.

Katie finally couldn’t take it anymore, and she needed a release.  She delicately stopped him, her hand rubbing up his bicep softly as she silently requested that she take control.  Grabbing her ass, Justin flipped them easily and laid down.

He stared up at her perfectly taught breasts as she started to bounce up and down on him, and he had never seen anything more beautiful.  His hands moved to her hips to help guide her until she started doing some fancy hip work, working figure 8’s and the grinding motion so uniquely that his eyes rolled back into his head.  He had never felt that before.

“Katie...baby, I’m so close.  Please.  We...I have to....we need to come together...” he whimpered desperately.

She nodded, and felt his hand slide between their bodies.  It was so easy to ride him, to feel his penis touching and reaching every crevice of her inner walls, stretching her deeper than she had ever been before.  But as soon as his fingertip was there flicking her clit, she started losing it.  Her hips started rocking, and then pounding, and his hands were pulling her down faster, as his blended up to meet hers.

It was flesh against flesh, and it was fast, powerful, and intense.

Backs were arched.  Moans escaped.  Fluid exchanged.  Hearts were beating.

Bliss was achieved.

Perfect. Sexual. Bliss.

Katie had collapsed against his chest, and she listened to his heart beat as the sweat dripped along their skin, forcing them tightly to each other.

“Holy shit..” Katie mumbled.

“No...holy night,” Justin giggled.  “Merry Christmas, Katie.”  She could still feel him twitching inside of her.

“Merry Christmas, Justin.  You know, one day, you’re going to have to explain all this to me?” she motioned to the cabin, out of breath.

“One day you’re going to have to explain to me why the hell you wore a sweater that ugly...” he trailed off, just as panty as she was.

They both smirked, ending their perfect Christmas eve wrapped in each other’s loving arms.  Neither expected it, yet it goes to show that Christmas miracles are always possible.  Oh, and distance really does make the heart grow fonder.
