Fireside secrets

Good morning.

Eivan Bellstones POV

☆°•☆°•☆°•☆°•

I was feeling like a caged tiger after January spilled her secrets. I was angry as sin over what that Adam guy did to her.

If I ever meet that asshole, I'll kill him.

It was like I was her protector or something. What is even happening to me?

I can't stop thinking about a five year old January being hurt by that monster. That guy I would definitely murder.

Pacing back and forth outside of the back kitchen door, I heard the fresh snow crunch under my feet as I moved. There were no other sounds in this winter white out.

My mind whirled as I suddenly stopped in my tracks.

What about Diana my girlfriend?

Oh now the guilt began to settle into my gut. Not once have I thought about her.

I know we have had our problems. When I left her, I gave her an ultimatum.

Seek help for your eating disorder or I'm leaving, I couldn't just sit and watch her die.

She denied a problem, as always. I made good on my word and took the job offer here at Greenmire as head football coach.

Diana was angry, she blocked me on her phone and social media. I finally got through to her by calling her friends, non stop. I was still so worried about her. She was my first..well everything.

My first lover, we went to prom together, I was planning to propose before everything went to s**t.

This trip to New York over Christmas break was sort of a do over for us. A chance to build back to where we were as kids.

Damn, she must really think that I've moved on, missing my flight probably made her believe that I did it on purpose.

Did I do it on purpose? I asked myself now.

I think that I was going to end things with her. I left late for my flight and took a supposed short cut that I never took before. Did I want to miss my flight?

If I was being totally honest with myself, I think that I'm done pretending that Diana and I are some star crossed couple, destined to be eachother's forever person.

When January kissed me, it was everything my life had been missing. She's the only thing that I can think about now.

Oh God, I'm in trouble. I'm falling in love with a student and I can't even act on it, because I need to end things with Diana and I can't do that because I don't have any way to contact her, and I'm running out of time because she's hell bent on having s*x with someone to prove something to herself that only she cares about.

I realized I was pulling my hair now.

Taking several deep breaths, I turned the cold door handle and stepped back into the warmth of the house.

I heard them laughing.

"No, it wasn't supposed to be a six, I dropped the dice on the floor. I am not going to pay you for landing on your big expensive hotel on boardwalk!" I heard January cry.

Thomas shook his head.

" You are playing dirty January!"He growled at her.

She squealed as he threw his hotel at her and lunged over the board for her.

I was trying to stay calm as Thomas seduced her. I knew what he was doing. I think we all did.

My jealousy at the easy comoraderie of the pair of them had as they played monopoly in front of the warmth of the fire was thinly controlled.

Thomas release her, seeing me come into the room.

January moved over to make room for me.

" Come, play with us professor Bellstone." She said to me as I swear a hint of fire flashed in her big brown eyes.

She was testing me. Remembering that I coldly told her to call me professor.

I didn't care for it. But I would play the game.

I sat down, my leg touching hers.

She didn't move away.

Thomas handed me a wad of money and told me to choose a player piece.

I took the dog.

**********

It was about 2am and everyone was sleeping. I watched January with her head tucked down on her pillow. Her beauty in the glow of the fire pulled me to her.

I inched my way over to her little bed in the floor and snuggled up behind her.

My arm inched around her small waist, under the covers.

She shifted back, pressing her butt up against me. We fit together perfectly.

I breathed in her smell, she was like soft rose petals on a crisp snowy day. I imagined her naked in my arms.

She moaned softly as I snuggled in.

I knew it was wrong. But right now in this room at this time...she was all mine.

I fell asleep.

***********

The next day.

I woke up with a hand between my legs that was not my own.

January was facing me, the fire had gone out and she was cold.

I froze as I felt her fingers digging farther between my leg, as if she was searching for warmth there.

The morning wood that I was feeling was even bigger with her little movements. I held my breath, not sure what to do.

But, I heard Thomas then. He jumped up out of his bedding and cried out.

" s**t it's cold! Scoot over man, let me in!" He pulled himself to the other side of January, waking her up as he pressed his front to her back. Her front was facing my front. Not awkward at all right?

Her pretty long lashes blinked open. She didn't even seem surprised to see me there.

" I gotta go pee boys." She said.

" I mean professor, sorry." She looked shy now as she forgot to address me more formally as I had instructed her to do.

It was very sweet seeing her waking up.

Her eyes opened wide feeling my erection under her hand.

" Oh, I'm so sorry!" she pushed back hitting Thomas as she pulled away from me.

Apparently feeling what was going on in his pants now as she bumped her butt up against his morning wood.

" Shhh...settle down girl. Boys and professors get a little hard in the morning, it's what we do. Don't panick. Just lean into it. I know you want to."

Damn he was smooth for a 22 year old.

January swallowed hard and nodded. She lifted her hips and pushed up against him.

" Like that?" She asked sweetly.

I could only watch in wonder as she had inadvertently pressed her hard n*****s up towards my face as she arched her back.

The thin fabric of her flannel shirt called to me. My hand lifted slowly as I cupped one of her breasts and my thumb stroked her n****e very slowly.

I had no control over it. f**k!

January let out a loud moan that surprised us all.

I never wanted any woman as much as I wanted this one right this very moment.

Thomas put his hand on her hip and moved closer, grinding up against her.

He dipped his head, whispering into her ear. But I heard him.

" My lord you feel nice in the morning. I want you so f*****g bad right now."

He took the words right out of my mouth. Like he was speaking for me.

" I...I really gotta pee." We both let her up as she ran into the ice cold bathroom and hid.
