The Girl Next Door

*Sorry, this one\'s kinda short.*

‘Okay, so maybe he wasn’t exaggerating.’ Veronica thought as she gaped at Jason. All he could do was lean against the wall next to the phone and stare down at his feet.

“Is that all you’re going to say?” Veronica finally snapped after a few minutes of silence, feeling a little hurt and angry for some reason.
“What do you want me to say?” he snapped back. “They need me for this position over there and I have to go. No ifs, ands, or buts about it. I a promise when I joined and I have no choice but to fulfill this obligation, or risk getting in some serious trouble.” Jason finished his short tirade with a heavy sigh.

Veronica blinked for a minute, feeling her eyes water. She didn’t know what she was getting upset with him. She knew he had a duty to do, but she just didn’t know he would be called back so soon. He had only been home for 7 months and Christmas was less than a month away.

“When do you have to leave?” she inquired.
“Next week.” he answered dryly.
“I’m sorry.” she said in a small voice.
“You didn’t do anything wrong, sweetheart.” he said, trying to soothe her. “I just have a big decision to make now.”
“What?” Veronica asked, slightly hoping he was considering not going.
“Whether or not to ask you to marry me before I go.”

Veronica’s heart stopped for a good thirty seconds and struggled to find her voice. Jason saw her face and knew now was as good a time as any. He dragged himself off of the wall and into their bedroom, returning shortly with a small velvet box. ‘Oh, God, oh God, oh God…’ Veronica’s mind raced when she saw the box, yet she was still unable to say a word. Jason went to the couch and pulled her into a sitting position, as he kneeled in front of her, holding onto her hands with one of his.

“I was trying to wait until Christmas, but it doesn’t look like that’s going to happen. And there’s a chance that I might have to say overseas for more than a couple of weeks or months. It might be years.” Veronica gasped at his words and he quickly continued, understanding her fears. “But if that were to happen, I would want you with me.” He let go of her hands and opened the box. “As Mrs. Jason Hampton.”

She stared down at the sparkling princess cut jewel in the box. ‘It looks so expensive.’ she thought. But with his salary, she could see how he could have easily saved up for it and she would have never known. She vaguely heard him continue to speak and she had to readjust her eyes from the diamond to look at him. “Will you marry me?” came from Jason’s mouth, more of a plea than a request.

When Veronica didn’t answer right away, he began to get worried. ‘I knew it was too soon. I never gave her enough time to get over that asshole….But we’ve been together for as long as I can remember. We’ve only been in love for a short time, though. Yeah, if four years is considered short.” Jason’s mind was waging a war within itself and he almost didn’t hear Veronica when she spoke.

“I will.” she mumbled, her fingers pressed to her lips.
“You will?” he whispered back. She nodded her head frantically as she felt tears run down her cheeks and a smile come across her face.
“You will.” he stated, a huge grin now plastered on his face. He quickly took the ring from the box and, with shaky hands, placed it on her finger. All she could do was smile as she flung her arms around his neck. He laughed heartily as he picked her up bridal style and got to his feet. He began spinning around, her in his arms, chanting, “She will, she will, she will….”

Veronica laughed at his silliness and he set her down, running to the window and opening it. “She will!” Jason screamed at the top of his lungs, hanging out of the window. A distant ‘Fuck you’ was the only reply he got. He quickly pulled his head back in the window and closed it, turning to face his new fiancé.

“We’re going someplace fancy tonight.” he said, eyes twinkling.
“Where do you want to go?” she asked, allowing his happiness and her excitement to fill her.
“I think I want something south of the border tonight, but not Tres Hombre.” he said, stalking over to her. She frowned slightly, not understanding him. He quickly kneeled in front of her and began pulling up her skirt.
“Jason.” She exclaimed when he pulled her panties and stockings at once, bringing them to her ankles. He let his tongue snake out to gently tease her slit. Almost instantly she became wet and he moved to push his tongue further into her folds.

“Dinner” was all she could get out between pants and moans.
“Later” was the only reply he gave as he guided her to the floor, where he quickly removed the undergarments from her ankles. He took his place between her slightly parted legs, pushing them further apart. He continued his assault on her lower region and she moaned and squirmed under the assault of his tongue.

He dove deeper into her, pumping his tongue in and out of her core. “Oh God.” She gasped when he inserted a finger into her and moved his mouth to her clit, sucking and nibbling at it. He pumped his finger in and out, adding another after not too long. His speed increased and his sucking became more forceful as her walls were now grasping his fingers, trying to keep him inside of her.

Veronica was on fire now, her entire body an inferno. She wanted him to go faster and bring on her eminent release, but at the same time, she wanted this pleasure to last for as long as it could. When Jason added a third finger, however, she knew it wouldn’t be long before she flew over the edge. Jason let his tongue roll over her clit and rub it in a circular motion, using every thing he knew about how Veronica’s body responded to add to this pleasure. She was bucking her hips wildly to meet with the thrust of his hands.

She shuddered violently as her pleasure reached its peak and her orgasm overtook her. Her juices flowed freely and Jason was more than happy to catch every last drop, not knowing when her would be able to taste her again. Her orgasm passed slowly and she lay panting, trembling slightly from the aftershocks. Jason crawled up her body to lay by her side.

“Thank you?” she half asked, a lazy smile on her face. Jason chuckled softly.
“No. Thank you.” Veronica moved her hand to rest on her chest and inadvertently brushed against Jason’s rock hard arousal. He gave a strangled groan and bit his bottom lip at the slight touch.
“We have to do something about that.” Veronica announced, grabbing his manhood firmly. He let out another groan and this time she picked herself off of the ground and stood over his. She began stripping off her clothes until she was standing before him naked, and lowered herself so that she was straddling him. She pulled his shirt over his head and began working at his belt.

“But, what about dinner?” he asked, half caring about his own question.
“Maybe” she replied, removing his belt, “we can orde
