Cain was the same person in secret as he was in public: polite and considerate. And Haley smiled at him encouragingly when he braved through the unease and reached for her. His fingers brushed beneath her skirt, the tips of them skimming across the soft fabric of her undergarments. It was a soft, hesitant ghost of a touch but Cain had exerted just enough force to get a feel for the shape of her womanhood. Haley's hands shot to his shoulders and she held him tight as the electricity leapt of his digits and onto her skin.<br/><br/>The fairy tale romance she'd always wanted was coming true, and for a moment, all traces of Keida had vanished from her mind. She obliged without question when Cain asked her to lie down, and she watched (entranced) as he peeled his shirt off his body. Haley had noticed before, whenever they would swim at the lake together , but it was clearer now that Cain was perched above her. He was all muscle, taut and eager to please despite the nervousness that had crept into his usually confident demeanor.<br/><br/>Cain was both sincere and shy, and Haley found her own heart beating wildly as they worked in tandem to rid themselves of article after article of clothing. Soon enough, they were bare and Cain complimented her with so much sincerity that her heart swelled. She could forget about Keida, she had everything she could ever want with Cain. "And you're the sweetest boy I've ever met. Even back when we were kids." Her cheeks were a cherry pink as she reached out a hand to cup his cheek. "You were always nice and kind and that's why I love you." Words came easy when she was with Cain. She liked to think he brought out the best in her. She wrapped both her arms around his neck and lowered his face so she could kiss him deeply. She parted her lips to allow his tongue to wander if he so wished.<br/><br/>Everything was perfect, until Cain said something that burned everything to the ground.<br/><br/><i>'I'm glad I'm the first...'<br/>
</i><br/>A mixture of guilt and anger (for Keida) welled up inside her, but she smothered it all under what she hoped appeared to be an anxious expression. Keida had taken her before Cain could even press his lips to hers. And the bitter truth of it all, was she'd participated willingly when she'd offered herself up to the young man who'd blackmailed her. The thoughts transported her back to Keida's kitchen counter, her legs splayed open as a certain golden-eyed boy rolled his hips against hers and claimed her for the first time. Deliciously electric. Haley felt sick, drowned the memory as she focused her eyes on Cain's kind blue ones.<br/><br/>She found herself lying again. "I'm glad you're going to be my first, Cain." Her voice quivered and she pressed her lips against his ones more to drown out the sickening tide of emotions in her chest. Her kiss grew more passionate and she found herself forgetting Keida for just a moment. She needed to forget him completely. "Cain, cain," she breathed as she pulled away from the kiss. "Thank you for worrying about me, I'll be okay.  We love each other and that's all the matters." She forced a smile. It would have been the fairy tale romance she'd always wanted had Keida never stepped into the picture. As Cain placed the condom onto the table, she sat up and smiled shyly at him. "Let me help you." Haley had never done anything like this before (Keida had taken her bare), so her fingers were clumsy when she finally freed the latex from its prison. Hesitantly, she approached Cain and attempted to wrap his eager limb. "Is... is this right?" She was flushing brightly, a picture of innocence despite the corruption that had already taken root within her. "I hope it doesn't hurt?" When it seemed she'd gotten it right. Haley returned to her position on the sofa and finally began spreading her legs for her prince. It were as if she were offering herself up to Cain. She smiled, still shy and hesitant (but excited for their soon to be union). "I'm ready, Cain. I love you."
