After a few hours of celebrating, time was dwindling down and the need to get back to Pittsburgh was upon them. Sidney made arrangements to change Karen's flight so she would go home with him, Flower and Brooks Orpik. They got to the airport and boarded the plane waiting to take off.
"You know Karen, I'm beginning to become annoyed how you just come in here and think your seat is next to Sid."
"What's the matter Marc, feeling a little neglected, unloved?"
"I'm suppose to be by my captain, not by some low-life defenseman."
Karen looked across the aisle to see Brooks' face "what are you saying Flower, I'm not good enough to be around on a 4 hour flight?"
"I think I'm going to go sit in coach" she whispered to Sidney to get him to laugh.
"Let me handle this" he said then kissed her "why does it matter so much Flower?"
Marc let his smile fade and leaned towards Sidney "we always sit together Siddo, it's like we're meant to be together on each and every plane ride. I can't enjoy being on a plane if you're not beside me."
"Would you two like to be alone? I have no problems sitting beside Brooks."
"Good, see it's settled. Now get out of my seat" Flower said to get a stern look from Sidney. "Sorry Kiki, but may I please have my seat?"
Sidney looked to Karen who just shook her head and got up "fine."
"Sorry baby" Sidney said with a sad smile.
Karen kissed him before moving to the seat across the aisle "I'll get him back, don't worry."
"You'll have more fun over here anyway Karen" Brooks told her. "Do you mind sitting by the window?"
"No, it's fine." Everyone got settled and were waiting for the plane to take off.
"Not to pry or anything, but when I saw you at the Women's Gold Medal game, you seemed locked in a tense conversation with Whitter."
Karen looked into his eyes and knew "you know huh?"
"Rooming with him before he got traded had it's perks. We're friends and he confided in me."
"About?"
"How Sid wasn't the only one to fall in love with you the day you all met."
"And seeing me with Sid made him avoid wanting to be around me?"
"Until the time you two broke up. Then he had it set in his mind to try and do anything to make you see that he could have been the perfect guy for you. Of course, after you and Sid got back together his dreams wouldn't let him forget about you. That's why he made himself distant from you."
"He had dreams about me?"
"This one time, I woke him up for practice while we were on the road and he was clutching his pillow. I asked him what was going on and he looked confused, wondering where you were. I guess to him the dream felt real and you were there with him."
"Wow, didn't think it went that far."
"Yeah it did. We met up not long after you stayed with him before going to see Sid and he told me what happened. He said for a moment, you seemed into it?"
Karen looked at Brooks and saw the sincerity "I did" she whispered "it was the fist time I felt like I had a choice of who I wanted to be with."
"Its obvious Sid won out on that one."
"It was an obvious choice after the kiss. I saw a man who did love me standing in front of me, but my heart felt guilty for cheating on Sid. I didn't feel the love Ryan wanted me to feel for him. I didn't want to hurt him but I had no choice but turn him down."
"I still think there's a piece of him that feels that way about you after seeing you the other day."
"Well, a hot California blonde will curb that feeling."
"A brunette maybe, but never a blonde" he said getting Karen to smile "he'll be ok Kiki, he'd rather have your friendship than nothing at all."
"That I can certainly do." They smiled at each other and Karen went back to reading her magazine as Brooks got out his computer.
After about an hour, Karen got up to stretch her legs and go to the bathroom. She was told that someone was in the one up front so she said she'd walk to the back. No one was in one of the bathrooms and she went in, locking the door. A few minutes later, Sidney got up and took a walk to the back of the plane. When he heard the door unlock and start to open, he saw Karen standing there and pushed her back inside.
"What are you doing?"
"I missed you."
"Um studly, out of all my fantasies, this isn't one of them."
"Really?" he said pinning her against the wall.
"Yeah. I'm sorry, but there's not enough room to even find a perfect position and...ew."
Sidney started laughing "ok, how about you just indulge me for a minute." He leaned in and met her lips with an incredible kiss. Karen felt the heat arise in her body and wondered if they could find a way. Before she could think any more on it, Sidney had undone her jeans and slipped his hand inside, covering her mound and rubbing on it. Karen's breathing became erratic and let out a soft moan when she felt Sidney slide a couple fingers in her wet core.
"Oh god" she whispered as Sidney's lips went to her neck. His thumb rubbed harder over her sensitive nub as his fingers went as deep as they could. "Don't stop...mmm, right there."
Sidney knew she was almost there and reattached his lips to hers to prevent any sounds wanting to escape. Karen grabbed onto his biceps and dug her fingernails in as her orgasm rushed through her body. Sidney slowed down his fingers until he got everything out of her before removing them. He saw Karen had her eyes closed and breathing heavily as she tried to calm down from her orgasmic high. He turned around and washed his hands before kissing her and leaving her alone.
Karen managed to relock the door and looked in the mirror "damn, I hate it when he does that" she said to herself. She got her breathing to regulate, cleaned up and situated before heading out and back to her seat. Karen was thankful that no one was out there waiting for the bathroom and the nearest occupant of a seat was three rows away, She walk back up front and got into her seat.
"You ok? You took a while?" Brooks asked her.
"Yeah, I stayed back there for a little bit to stretch my legs since its a long flight."
Brooks just smiled "are the bathrooms really big enough to do that in?"
Karen just blushed and looked out the window before turning to him "no and that's not quite what happened."
"Well from the smile Sid gave when he came back and you now seem flustered, something happened. Don't worry, I won't say anything about it." Karen just shook her head as Brooks laughed. She picked up another magazine and noted to herself to secretly kill her husband.
Another hour and a half and the plane finally landed in Pittsburgh. The four of them waited to be the last ones off, with the rest of the plane offering up their congratulations as they departed. Flower and Orps left up the ramp together and Sidney waited back to walk with Karen. He tried to hold her hand but she kept taking it away.
"What's the matter, why won't you let me hold your hand?"
"I know where that hand's been" she said walking away as he stopped.
"You know I washed after" he said running to catch her.
"Technically I didn't see that happen."
"Oh that's right, you were still in orgasm heaven." Karen just stopped and hit him in the stomach "sorry but you were baby."
"I can't believe you did that to me."
"Well, we needed a mini celebration before the big one at home" he said kissing her as they still stood on the jetway. They were interrupted as the pilots and flight crew came up behind them with someone clearing their throat. They both just smiled and apologized before continuing into the terminal. As they made their way down the corridor, Karen could see the few reporters waiting and kissed his cheek before leaving him to get the bags.
When Karen got the bags and headed back over to where Sidney was, she saw they were finished and he came over to her.
"Done?"
"Yeah, now I can take my wife home and make mad passionate love to her."
"I love the sound of that" she said kissing him before they headed to find his car and go home. About a half hour later, they got home and Sidney all but attacked her. Bags were just thrown down and he directed her towards the living room until they hit the back of the couch "maybe we should slow down."
"Why put off what we want to do now?"
"I'm not saying put it off, just slow down. We're not making this a fast fuck stud."
"What did you have in mind?"
"Why don't you get your Gold Medal out of you bag and wait for me on the couch, I'll be back in 5 minutes."
"Then you'll let me do whatever I want to you?"
"Whatever you want."
Sidney looked at his watch "5 minutes...go." Karen just laughed and kissed him before heading upstairs to get herself ready.
After Karen got upstairs, she went into her dresser and got out her Gold Medal from 1998. She placed it on the bed and got completely undressed. She hurriedly got a quick shower and dried off, putting on her short, silk robe. Karen fluffed her hair and looked in the mirror, smiling before going back downstairs. She got to the doorway and saw Sidney was getting a fire going. As he stood up, Sidney saw her standing there looking beautiful.
"Did I make it under the 5 minutes?"
"Don't know and don't care. You look stunning baby."
"Did you have any doubts stud?"
"Never" he said shaking his head. Sidney stretched out his hand and Karen walked over to him.
"How about you come and sit on the couch?" she said leading him towards it.
Sidney sat down and Karen stood in front of him "kind of reminds me of Christmas."
"I just figured you like to undress me so much that I'd make it easier on ya."
Sidney smiled and reached his hand up, grabbing the belt of the robe and untying it. As the robe fell open, the flickering of the fire showed the Gold Medal Karen was wearing...and it was the only thing she was wearing.
"So if you have that one on, what am I to do with mine?"
"Either I can wear them both..."
"And turn me on immensely."
"Or we each can wear them and we can each be turned on."
"See, I knew I married a smart woman...with a very sexy body" he said scooting to the edge of the couch and feeling her skin from her legs to her breasts. Karen stood back and brought Sidney to his feet. One look from her and he knew to get undressed, which he did. When he was finished, Sidney bent down and picked up his Gold Medal. Karen took it from his hands and put it around his neck. "I think I enjoyed that more than when the Olympic person did it."
"Well, I have been told I have a magic touch."
Sidney took her hand and placed it over his cock "let the magic begin baby." He moved his hand away and Karen kept hers there and began to massage him as their lips met for a heated kiss. As Sidney became harder, his hands went to her ass and brought her closer to him. Karen removed her hand and broke the kiss to Sidney's dismay, but smiled when she had him sit back down on the couch. His smile left when Karen sat on the edge of the coffee table. "That's not where I thought you would end up."
"And where did you want me to end up?"
"You really need me to say it?"
"Actually I do. Tell me where you want me stud" she said as her fingers grazed over her breasts. Karen had always wanted Sidney to unleash his erotic side and hoped this would be one of those times.
Sidney knew what she wanted and did more than obliged her "I want your wet, hot, slick opening to slide down over my hard, thick cock."
"Well, whatever my stud wants" she said standing up and straddling over his lap "my stud gets." Karen positioned herself to where his cock was at her entrance and she slid down on him, letting him stretch her. She sat still and looked deep into his eyes. Sidney began to move his hips upward and the closeness was turning them on beyond belief. Karen leaned in and kissed him as she started to move her hips, slow at first then began to pick up the pace. Their Gold medals started to clink together as their bodies moved faster.
Sidney decided to stop her by gripping her ass and placing her back on the coffee table, laying her down on her back. He pulled out of her so he could grab a couple pillows to kneel on and be the perfect height. As he re-entered her, Sidney placed her Gold Medal between her breasts as he thrusted into her. Karen reached behind her and grabbed the edge of the coffee table to steady herself from moving too much. She felt her orgasm build and reached for Sidney's shoulders to pull herself up. Sidney never stopped pounding into her and Karen managed to get his Gold Medal off from around his neck and put it around hers, leaning back on her hands.
"Is this what you wanted to see?" she asked as she placed one medal over each breast.
Sidney looked at the two medals "oh fuck yeah" he said as his thrusts got harder and faster. Karen leaned her head back as her orgasm was about to make its appearance. She couldn't hold in the moan that screamed from her lips and Sidney couldn't take the tightness on his cock as his last thrust brought out everything he had to offer. Their bodies shook to accommodate the shuttering orgasm they both let loose. Karen sat up and wrapped her arms around Sidney's sweaty body, kissing him softly.
"I'm glad we waited until we got home to celebrate."
"Me too baby. I know I've pictured you wearing both medals but I gotta tell ya, seeing it for real makes it so much sexier."
"So has it hit you yet?" she said picking up his medal and showing it to him.
"It's slowly sinking in that we won."
"I have to ask. You won the Stanley Cup 8 months ago and now the Gold Medal from the Olympics...what do you want to achieve next?"
"It might be the high of coming off the win, but I want what you want...a family."
"Sid..."
"I know we talked about it but let's really talk about it Karen. Let's start the family we always wanted."
Karen looked at him and tears started to form in her eyes "I want that too. Let's start our family Sid." A few tears fell from her eyes and Sidney brought his hand up to wipe away the streaks from her cheeks. Their lips met for a loving kiss before they parted and went upstairs to bed.

Chapter 17
The game seemed like it was moving fast and it was a great game both teams were playing. As the final buzzer went, the game was tied 2-2 and needed an overtime to decide a winner. Karen had watched Sidney and saw he was somewhat quiet on the ice. He made some good passes but it didn't seem like it was typical Sidney on the ice. Before the start of overtime, one of the reporters for the game knew Karen was in the arena and wanted to talk to her. They found her and she obliged going to a quieter part of the arena.
"Thank you. I am here with Karen Crosby and some of you might remember her as a Gold Medal winner in the 1998 Olympics where Team USA beat Team Canada for the Gold in Women's hockey. But today, she is portraying a new role and that is wife to Pittsburgh Penguins captain Sidney Crosby. So Karen, let me start off that you seem to be rooting for the right team."
"Yeah, it wasn't a hard decision who I was going to be rooting for tonight."
"But a part of you is torn being American and rooting for your Canadian husband?"
"I guess part of me is torn. I would love to see Team USA get the Gold tonight, but there's something about seeing your husband win it as well."
"And there wouldn't be anymore bragging rights in the Crosby household?"
"True, there wouldn't be."
"We all saw you with Sidney celebrating the Stanley Cup the Penguins won 8 months ago, when you heard he would be on this year's Olympic team, did any doubt enter your mind that he could come here and win the Gold as well?"
"No, not at all. Sidney has such determination when he plays the game, he's going to go out and play hard whether it's for the Stanely Cup, a Gold Medal, or just a regular season game. He was thrilled to be representing his country and I couldn't be more proud of him for getting this opportunity."
"Did you ever think that when you got done playing for Team USA in '98 that somewhere in the future you would be married to another hockey player, let alone Sidney Crosby?"
"No" she said with a little laugh "when I met Sidney in 2008 I never thought it would have ended up to where we are today. I've been through the game and know what he goes through on any given night. He can just be Sidney with me and I think it's a perfect match."
"Well when I asked Sidney about being married to a former Team USA player, he ushered the same sentiments. Thank you Karen and go cheer on your husband to a Gold Medal."
"Thanks, I will"
Sidney was standing in the corridor when he saw Karen on the TV giving an interview. He had heard what she said and couldn't contain his smile. He knew what he needed to do when they went out for overtime.
Karen got back to her seat and saw the players were coming back on for overtime. She felt a little knot in her stomach for not knowing how this game was going to end. Sidney skated around to warm up before going to the bench. As he skated to the bench, he looked in the crowd and saw Karen staring directly at him. He gave her a head nod and she smiled and sent a wink his way. Sidney sat down and hoped the game ended the way it needed to.
The game started and time ticked down with great chances from both the US and Canada. It was a nail-biter to say the least as most of the fans were standing and waiting to see who would be the hero of the game.
As overtime got down to the final three minutes, it seemed to everyone that there was going to be a second overtime to decide the game...or so they thought. The play was in the US end as Canada had the puck, but then it was taken away by the US and headed towards the Canadian goal. Karen was watching Sidney more then the play itself and when he was hanging back, she knew the puck was coming to him. As the puck was turned over and they all skated back into the US end, Sidney called for it and definitely got it. He skated down the side and made a shot towards Ryan Miller. It was a weird angle shot but it managed to go between Ryan's legs and into the net. As soon as Sidney knew it went in, he couldn't contain his excitement and the rest of the team piled around him as Team Canada won the Gold medal. Karen stood there and watched as Sidney got lost in a sea of red and white jerseys and the smile that crept onto her face soon disappeared when she saw the US at their bench looking very much defeated. She knew this was going to be a tough moment and it was. Her home country lost the Gold medal and it was certainly heartbreaking, but to look down the ice and see Sidney skating around celebrating was enough to bring the smile back onto her face.
"You ok Karen?" Trina asked her.
"Yeah, I just knew this was going to be hard but I'll be ok."
"Good because I believe someone is looking for you" she said pointing to the ice.
Karen looked to where she was pointing and smiled. Sidney pointed to her and she instinctly put her hand to her mouth and blew him a kiss. She wished it was like the Stanley Cup and could be down at ice level with him, but they weren't letting anyone down there since they needed to award the medals to the teams. After about 20 minutes, they came out with the carpet and made the announcement. They gave the US their medals and said each player's name as they did. Karen cheered for all of them but was a little louder for Whit and Orps and didn't care who looked at her.
When they were done, they got ready to give the medal to the Canadian team. Karen saw them line up with Sidney at the end. They were able to get through all the guys but when it was Sidney's turn, the crowd erupted and the announcer had to wait until they died down enough to say his name. When the announcement came and they put the Gold medal around his neck, Karen couldn't stop the tears from falling as she was so proud of him for accomplishing one of his dreams.
"I guess I should have waited until now to ask if you're ok" Trina said with a smile.
Karen just laughed and wiped her cheeks "I am definitely ok. I'm just so proud of him."
"You said a mouthful there dear." Just then, they were getting ready to raise the flags and play the national anthem for Canada. As the music started and the crowd started to sing, Trina looked over and heard Karen singing with them. She smiled and put her arm around her as they sang together, watching Sidney and the rest of the team sing for their home country.
After the team took a picture at center ice then skated around for a few minutes before going back to the locker room, Karen and Sidney's family went down to wait and celebrate with him. She knew every single media hound would be after Sidney and she knew it was going to be a long night. Karen was standing back near the interviews and talking with Trina. She heard a few reporters ask for Sidney and said he'd be out next.
When Sidney came out, the first thing he did was scan the sea of media and found Karen standing in the back, smiling at him. She winked and mouthed 'I love you' which got him to smile a lot bigger than what he already was. Karen stood there with his mom and waited until every last reporter finished asking him questions. When they let him go, he gave Karen a head nod which told her to meet him a few feet away. She let his mom, dad and sister hug him first before he grabbed her and wouldn't let her go.
"I am so proud of you Sid" she whispered into his ear.
"I had a little inspiration from the intermission interview I saw" he said pulling back to look at her.
"You heard that?"
Sidney nodded his head "I think having my wife tell millions of viewers how proud she is and how much she loves me gave me that extra boost to win this for you."
"I think you won it for yourself Sid."
"It was a dream achieved, I will admit that. But to win it for the inspiration behind my career, that says a lot."
"Thank you, but you know I will never take full credit for this win. It was you, your determination, and a team of great Canadians playing their hearts out."
"I'll agree to that" he said leaning in to kiss her "I better go and get showered and changed."
"Ok, I'll see you in what, three...four hours?"
"I don't think we'll stay around here for too long. If you want to head back to the hotel, I'll come and get you when I'm done here and before any true celebrating starts."
"Well if time gets short, we can plan a bigger and better celebration once we get home."
"Love the sound of that" he said kissing her again and letting it last a little longer "love you."
"I love you too. See you in a bit." Sidney snuck in one more kiss before heading back into the locker room.
"Thank you. I am here with Karen Crosby and some of you might remember her as a Gold Medal winner in the 1998 Olympics where Team USA beat Team Canada for the Gold in Women's hockey. But today, she is portraying a new role and that is wife to Pittsburgh Penguins captain Sidney Crosby. So Karen, let me start off that you seem to be rooting for the right team."

Chapter 16
The next night, the Men's US and Canada rivalry wasn't the only one playing for the Gold, so was the Women's teams. The guys from both Men's team went to the game and so did Karen. She found a couple of other former teammates from the '98 team and sat with them since the Men's teams were altogether. During intermissions Sidney sought her out and found her to spend some time with her.
"You can come and sit with me."
"Hmm, a USA jersey in the midst of the Men's Canadian team. I can see the headlines now."
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing's wrong."
"I wish I could believe you but something with your tone is making it hard."
"I have no tone and like I said nothing's wrong."
"Will you please come sit with me for the rest of the game?"
"I would but I found some of my former teammates and would like to finish watching the game with them. Do you mind?"
The fact of the matter was he did but didn't want to start anything "no baby, go ahead. I didn't realize anyone else from your team was here. I'll meet up with you after ok?"
"Ok" Karen said and started to walk away until Sidney grabbed her hand to stop her.
"Hey, I love you."
Karen smiled "I love you too." They gave each other a kiss before going their separate ways. Karen was walking back to her section not paying attention and ran right into someone "I am so sorry" she said looking up at the person "Whit?"
"Hey Karen. Haven't seen you around during the whole tournament?"
"I didn't come in until after all the preliminary rounds were done. How are you?"
"I'm good. Sidney didn't seem to happy to see me when we played them earlier this year."
"Yeah I could tell when I felt the wrath of his anger when he got home from that trip."
"I'm sorry, I thought you told him since you were always so honest with him."
"I told him you kissed me. I didn't think he needed to know about you professing your love to me."
"Hey Whit, second period's starting, let's go man" Brooks came over to get him "hi Karen, didn't know you'd be at the game today" he said hugging her.
"Have to support my girls."
"True, but who will you support tomorrow?" he asked already knowing the answer.
"I'm torn so I will cheer for every goal and then be happy for whoever wins."
"Nice political answer there" Ryan said. "Could you give us another minute Orps?"
"Sure" he said seeing the looks between them "see you either tomorrow or back in Pittsburgh Karen."
"Will do Brooks" she said seeing him walk away but stop a short distance behind them.
"Look, I never meant to cause a fight or anything between you and Sid. I wanted him to know about what happened and I told him it was all me and that you fought my advances, all of them."
"Same thing I told him."
"But I still have to wonder that something didn't spark inside of you to make you kiss me back."
"Ryan, don't."
"I know you're married to Sid and I am not going to make you jeopardize that but I have to know...did you ever have feelings for me after we kissed?"
"Yes I did" she whispered "but like you said, I'm married to Sid and very much in love with him. If maybe things didn't work out the way they did with him, there could have been an us."
Ryan just nodded his head and smiled "then I guess its good that I'm on the other side of the states huh?"
"Yeah I guess it is" she said smiling at him then giving him a hug "you will always have a special place in my heart as a friend Whitter."
"If that's what you are giving, then that's what I'll take. See you around Kiki."
"Good luck tomorrow." Ryan just nodded his head and left seeing Brooks waiting for him.
"You are over her right?"
"Do we really ever get over people we fall in love with."
"Whit man, come on."
"I'm not going to do anything about it Orps. I just didn't think I'd see her ever again."
The game finished and it was Canada over the USA. Karen and her friends felt bad but was impressed how their girls did during the Olympics. They knew what they were feeling and knew once it sank in, they'd realize what they've accomplished. After the arena cleared out some, Karen managed to find Sidney and they went out for dinner with a lot of the guys from both teams. Ryan and Brooks went somewhere else and Karen hated he was alienating himself from all his friends. After dinner, Sidney took Karen back to the hotel.
"You don't need to walk me up, I know you have your game tomorrow and want to get your head ready tonight before you go to sleep."
"I think I do" he said getting into the elevator with her. The ride to her floor was quiet and Sidney wasn't sure what was going on. Karen unlocked her door and they both went in "are you going to tell me what's wrong now?"
"I told you nothing's wrong. Why can't you just leave it at that."
"Are you mad that USA lost tonight?"
"Disappointed, but not mad. They played a good game, Canada was just a little stronger."
"Ok, so you're mad at me then" he said not getting a response "what?" Karen kept searching around in her suitcase until Sidney came over and stopped her "tell me what I did to make you mad at me?"
"I thought I could handle it but I guess I can't"
"Handle what?"
"You leaving me every night after we've had sex" she said throwing down what was in her hands and going into the living area sitting on the couch.
Sidney closed his eyes and sighed before going over to sit by her "baby, I'm sorry. I guess I thought you would be fine with me going back to the village. Maybe I should have fought it and tried to see if I could have stayed with you these last few games."
"No, I just need to stop being selfish thinking we can always be together under circumstances like this."
"I think there's more to it. I think you felt like a puckbunny or worse."
"Maybe I did" she said bringing her hand up to wipe away the stray tear that fell.
"You have to know it was never my intentions to make you feel like that" he said taking her hand in his "you have to believe me."
"I do." Karen saw him check his watch "you better get back" she said standing up and walking over to the door.
Sidney stopped her from opening the door and wrapped his arms around her waist, to which she melted into "I'm so sorry baby and I love you so much."
"I love you and I'm sorry too. I know you would never treat me like that."
"Never in a million years" he said pulling back to look in her eyes. Their lips met before Sidney opened the door and left. When he got to the elevator, he stood upagainst the wall and waited for it to arrive and thought back to what Karen just told him. He couldn't believe he made her feel anything like that. He shook his head and got into the elevator to go back to the village.
The next night was the Gold Medal game for the Men's Hockey teams with USA going against Canada. Before Karen left the hotel, she put on her team USA t-shirt but had her Crosby Canada Jersey over it. She felt better that she was still representing the US and supporting Sidney at the same time. When she got to the arena with Sid's parents and sister, Karen saw that they still had a little time before warm ups. Trina, Taylor and Karen went to the seats as Troy went to the locker room to see Sid.
"You ready son?"
"Ready as I'll ever be. Did Karen come with you?"
"Yeah, she's up in the seats with your mom."
"Could you ask her to come down here for a minute, please?"
"Sure, good luck Sid."
"Thanks dad." Sidney went back in and waited for them to tell him Karen was out there. A few minutes later she was and the security guard went to get him. "Hey baby."
"Hey. You should be concentrating on the game, not me."
"You know by now both goes hand in hand with the other" he said seeing her smile "I just wanted to make sure you were here and ok."
"You just wanted to see what I was wearing."
"Well yeah, that too."
"This game is yours Sid. Play your heart out."
"I'll play for you" he said bringing her in for a kiss "only you" he whispered.
"I love you."
"I love you too."
"Ma'am, I'm sorry but you need to go."
Karen just nodded at the guard "I'll see you after, good luck."
Sidney kissed her again "I have all the luck I need right here" he said putting his hand to her heart. They kissed one more time before Karen left him to go back to the stands. When she got back up to his parents, Karen just smiled and took her place between Trina and Taylor.
"Everything ok dear?" Trina asked.
"Yeah, he just wanted a good luck kiss." Trina just smiled and left it at that. When both teams came out, Karen saw Sid was already in game mode and never looked up at her.
"You can come and sit with me."
"Hmm, a USA jersey in the midst of the Men's Canadian team. I can see the headlines now."
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing's wrong."
"I wish I could believe you but something with your tone is making it hard."
"I have no tone and like I said nothing's wrong."
"Will you please come sit with me for the rest of the game?"
"I would but I found some of my former teammates and would like to finish watching the game with them. Do you mind?"
The fact of the matter was he did but didn't want to start anything "no baby, go ahead. I didn't realize anyone else from your team was here. I'll meet up with you after ok?"
"Ok" Karen said and started to walk away until Sidney grabbed her hand to stop her.
"Hey, I love you."
Karen smiled "I love you too." They gave each other a kiss before going their separate ways. Karen was walking back to her section not paying attention and ran right into someone "I am so sorry" she said looking up at the person "Whit?"
"Hey Karen. Haven't seen you around during the whole tournament?"
"I didn't come in until after all the preliminary rounds were done. How are you?"
"I'm good. Sidney didn't seem to happy to see me when we played them earlier this year."
"Yeah I could tell when I felt the wrath of his anger when he got home from that trip."
"I'm sorry, I thought you told him since you were always so honest with him."
"I told him you kissed me. I didn't think he needed to know about you professing your love to me."
"Hey Whit, second period's starting, let's go man" Brooks came over to get him "hi Karen, didn't know you'd be at the game today" he said hugging her.
"Have to support my girls."
"True, but who will you support tomorrow?" he asked already knowing the answer.
"I'm torn so I will cheer for every goal and then be happy for whoever wins."
"Nice political answer there" Ryan said. "Could you give us another minute Orps?"
"Sure" he said seeing the looks between them "see you either tomorrow or back in Pittsburgh Karen."
"Will do Brooks" she said seeing him walk away but stop a short distance behind them.
"Look, I never meant to cause a fight or anything between you and Sid. I wanted him to know about what happened and I told him it was all me and that you fought my advances, all of them."
"Same thing I told him."
"But I still have to wonder that something didn't spark inside of you to make you kiss me back."
"Ryan, don't."
"I know you're married to Sid and I am not going to make you jeopardize that but I have to know...did you ever have feelings for me after we kissed?"
"Yes I did" she whispered "but like you said, I'm married to Sid and very much in love with him. If maybe things didn't work out the way they did with him, there could have been an us."

"If that's what you are giving, then that's what I'll take. See you around Kiki."
"Good luck tomorrow." Ryan just nodded his head and left seeing Brooks waiting for him.
"You are over her right?"
"Do we really ever get over people we fall in love with."
"Whit man, come on."
"I'm not going to do anything about it Orps. I just didn't think I'd see her ever again."

Chapter 15
The next day, Sidney had practice but no game. Karen saw where the Women's USA team was playing and told him she wanted to watch them. He didn't deprive her of that but he had some things to do with the team before their game tomorrow night. She grabbed her jersey from when she played and headed to the arena, only to be met by a familiar face.
"Karen? Oh my God, it can't be you."
"Cammi?" she smiled and hugged her friend "I haven't seen you in ages."
"What are you doing here?"
"You haven't heard?"
"Heard what?"
"I'm married to Sidney Crosby, going on almost two years come April."
"No I didn't know that, congratulations" she said hugging her again.
"Thanks."
"So, did you come in for just him?"
"And to take in the Women's games...have to continue to support our girls."
"I hear that" Cammi said then got called "I need to go provide the pre-game and intermission reports. Why don't you come with me and watch the game there and we can catch up? That is if Sid's not here with you."
"Nope, by myself and I'd love to" she said walking with her talking on the way.
During the game, the two best friends caught up and when it was over made plans to get together for dinner. The settled on a place and time before leaving each other.
When Karen got back to the hotel, she saw Sidney with his parents and Taylor in the lobby walking over to them.
"Hey baby" he said kissing her "have fun today?"
"Yeah I did."
"Good, but you need to go change."
"Why? Something wrong with what I'm wearing?" she said pretending not to know what he meant.
"You're married to me and you're wearing a Team USA jersey."
"Well I can pretend to not be married to you while I'm here" she said getting a look from him "besides, read the name on the back...it's my jersey from when I played."
"Will you at least not wear it when we're together? Please baby."
"Don't beg or anything studly. I know this is a big deal for you but when I go to support my girls, I have to represent."
Sidney brought her in closer to him "I know baby and I'm sorry for overreacting."
"You're not overreacting Sid. You're just proud of your country like I am. My heart lies with you during all this" she said sneaking in a quick kiss.
"I always knew it was. Why don't you go change cause we are going to head out for dinner."
"Um, there's a small problem with that."
"Baby, we can have our private time later" he whispered.
"Not where I was going but good to know where your mind is" she said laughing. "I ran into Cammi Granato and we made plans for dinner. All you guys are more than welcome to join us but we thought it would be nice to have dinner and catch up some more from earlier. Do you mind?"
"No, I guess not" he said with a little dejection in his voice "where you two going?"
"We are meeting at La Conner at 7p."
Sidney's frown turned into a smile "that is where we're planning to go."
"Yeah right."
"Dad?" he called over to Troy to get his attention "where we going for dinner?"
"La Conner Seafood and Prime Rib House" he told them.
Karen just saw Sidney smile "smartass."
"What?" he said laughing.
"Let me go change and I will meet you back down here in 15 minutes."
"Want me to come along?" Sidney said trying to be sly.
"If you do, it won't be 15 minutes. Be patient until tonight stud" she whispered then kissed him before going to the elevator and heading to her room. As she promised, 15 minutes later, Karen was back in the lobby and they all were heading out to dinner with another tagalong, Flower.
They got to the restaurant and Cammi had gotten there just as they did. Karen made the introductions and they sat down.
After talking and telling stories from their playing days from '96-'98, everyone was laughing and having fun.
"So Karen, do I dare ask who you're pulling for?"
"Well if I don't say Canada I think I may be divorced by morning" she said getting everyone to laugh again.
"You can pull for Team USA baby, just not when they play us" Sidney told her with a smile.
"How did you two meet? I forgot to ask earlier Karen."
"Which version do you want?" Flower chimed in.
"There are two versions?" Cammi asked confused.
"Yeah. There's one where Sidney is the man or the one where Karen schooled him at his own game" he said getting a stare from Sidney. "What? Dude, you know I'm right."
"Ok, I'm confused" Cammi said.
"I ended up back in Pittsburgh when I got back with you after the Olympics in '98. Well fast forwarded to April 2008 and Stacy came to visit with some of my other friends. The girls and I went to the arena and had the security guard call to ask Mario if we could play around on the ice for a bit. Well it seemed these two and three others were still on the ice working on some plays when we came on the ice."
"To make a long story short" Sidney started "we decided to play a friendly game of 4 on 4 and needless to say the girls won."
"With the winning move by me. I faked Sid out and got passed him, shot on Flower and netting the puck."
"You didn't fake me out baby" Sidney said in a stern tone.
"I faked him out" Karen whispered to Cammi to make her laugh.
"So after the impromptu game Sid, you asked her out?"
"Actually the other way around" he said pointing to Karen.
"What?"
"Mario invited me to dinner since I hadn't seen him in a long while and after dinner, I asked Sid if he wanted to go meet Stacy and the gang at Pops with me."
"So you pursued him?" she asked with a smile.
"I didn't pursue him" Karen said matter-of-factly.
"She pursued me" Sidney said in a whisper to Cammi to get everyone to laugh.
"Anyway, we dated and after a year Sidney proposed to me on our one year anniversary, at center ice after a game with Philly."
"But what she didn't know is when she said yes, we got married right then and there."
"Seems he had it all planned out."
"That is a cute story you guys."
"Yes, they're so cute that it's sickening at times" Marc said to get everyone laughing. They continued their conversation and after an hour, they all headed out and parted ways. Karen and Cammi made plans to talk again before the games were over.
A few more days had passed and the last game before the medal rounds took place with Canada winning and advancing into the Gold Medal game against Team USA. Karen was happy for Sidney to have a chance to win a Gold Medal but she still felt torn that she would be rooting against the US.
After going out with the team to celebrate, Sidney walked Karen back to her hotel sensing something being wrong.
"You going to tell me what's wrong?"
"There's nothing wrong. I'm happy you get to experience the game to win the Gold."
"But at the expense of playing the US. I can tell your happy for me but unhappy with who its against."
"I'm not unhappy you're playing the US, but in a way I feel like I'm not being true to my home country since I'm pulling for you to win."
"Baby, you know I would never ask you to do something you don't want to."
"I know but it feels right to root for you."
"How about this, if you want to root for the US I will not hold that against you. But how about if I score a goal, you promise to cheer for me."
"You know I would regardless..."
"But" Sidney said interrupting her.
"What if the US wins and you see me cheering?"
Sidney was quiet and just looked at her before looking away "I don't know. I don't know what I'd feel like if I saw that."
"How about we just not worry about this until we see how the game plays out" she told him walking passed him.
Sidney grabbed her arm before she could get away from him "Karen, I'm not going to be mad about this. I know you love me and I know you want me to win more than anything in this world. Cheer for whoever is in your heart to cheer for."
"Thank you" she told him with a smile "are you going to be able to stay for a while?"
"You didn't even have to ask me that." Sidney took her into his arms and held onto her while their lips assaulted each other. He snuck out his tongue and ran it across her lips begging for entrance, which Karen obliged letting the kiss go deeper. They took their time undressing each other before lying on the bed. Karen smiled when Sidney pulled down the covers and he let her get in before climbing in beside her. They turned to each other kissing and just feeling each other's body. Karen loved how he was taking it back to when they were first dating by putting her leg over his. He brought his hand up to breast and lightly squeezed it making Karen arch her back into his touch. Karen moved her hand inbetween them and massaged Sidney cock getting him hard. Sidney removed her hand and grabbed his cock, entering into her. Karen rolled onto her back and brought Sidney with her, moving her legs to wrap around him. Sidney looked deep into her eyes and moved the stray hair from her face as he leaned in to kiss her. He started out slow and kept the pace going until they couldn't stand it and Sidney went faster bringing them both over the edge. Karen held onto him when he tried to move off her and smiled realizing she loved his weight on her. Sidney brought his head up and looked at her "we haven't done that in a long time baby."
"I know, I thought we forgot how to make love that way" she smiled at him.
"I don't think we've ever forgotten, we just found a way to be us. But if I do say so, we need to always find our way back to beginning."
"I definitely agree to that" she told him before they met for a sweet kiss. Karen let him go and he rolled off her, pulling her to his body. "I do want you to win Sid."
Sidney just smiled and kissed her head "thanks baby." They laid there for another hour and a half before Sidney reluctantly got up to get dressed. Karen was about to get up too but he told her to stay in bed and he'd let himself out. After he was dressed, Sidney leaned down and kissed her passionately and whispered I love you before leaving the room. Karen rolled over onto her back and sighed hating that he couldn't stay with her.
"Karen? Oh my God, it can't be you."
"Cammi?" she smiled and hugged her friend "I haven't seen you in ages."
"What are you doing here?"
"You haven't heard?"
"Heard what?"
"I'm married to Sidney Crosby, going on almost two years come April."
"No I didn't know that, congratulations" she said hugging her again.
"Thanks."

"I know but it feels right to root for you."
"How about this, if you want to root for the US I will not hold that against you. But how about if I score a goal, you promise to cheer for me."
"You know I would regardless..."
"But" Sidney said interrupting her.
"What if the US wins and you see me cheering?"
Sidney was quiet and just looked at her before looking away "I don't know. I don't know what I'd feel like if I saw that."
"How about we just not worry about this until we see how the game plays out" she told him walking passed him.
Sidney grabbed her arm before she could get away from him "Karen, I'm not going to be mad about this. I know you love me and I know you want me to win more than anything in this world. Cheer for whoever is in your heart to cheer for."
"Thank you" she told him with a smile "are you going to be able to stay for a while?"
"You didn't even have to ask me that." Sidney took her into his arms and held onto her while their lips assaulted each other. He snuck out his tongue and ran it across her lips begging for entrance, which Karen obliged letting the kiss go deeper. They took their time undressing each other before lying on the bed. Karen smiled when Sidney pulled down the covers and he let her get in before climbing in beside her. They turned to each other kissing and just feeling each other's body. Karen loved how he was taking it back to when they were first dating by putting her leg over his. He brought his hand up to breast and lightly squeezed it making Karen arch her back into his touch. Karen moved her hand inbetween them and massaged Sidney cock getting him hard. Sidney removed her hand and grabbed his cock, entering into her. Karen rolled onto her back and brought Sidney with her, moving her legs to wrap around him. Sidney looked deep into her eyes and moved the stray hair from her face as he leaned in to kiss her. He started out slow and kept the pace going until they couldn't stand it and Sidney went faster bringing them both over the edge. Karen held onto him when he tried to move off her and smiled realizing she loved his weight on her. Sidney brought his head up and looked at her "we haven't done that in a long time baby."
"I know, I thought we forgot how to make love that way" she smiled at him.
"I don't think we've ever forgotten, we just found a way to be us. But if I do say so, we need to always find our way back to beginning."
"I definitely agree to that" she told him before they met for a sweet kiss. Karen let him go and he rolled off her, pulling her to his body. "I do want you to win Sid."
Sidney just smiled and kissed her head "thanks baby." They laid there for another hour and a half before Sidney reluctantly got up to get dressed. Karen was about to get up too but he told her to stay in bed and he'd let himself out. After he was dressed, Sidney leaned down and kissed her passionately and whispered I love you before leaving the room. Karen rolled over onto her back and sighed hating that he couldn't stay with her.
Chapter 14
As the season reached halfway, it was soon time for the Olympics. Karen would not be able to go to Vancouver with Sidney for the start of the games, but she would be there after all the preliminary games are done. Since the NHL was still playing games over the weekend, Sidney couldn't go to the Opening Ceremonies which Karen told him she wished he wouldn't have missed the opportunity. Sidney would be leaving for Vancouver right after the game Sunday evening to the dismay of Karen, who did nothing but pout on the way to the airport.
"You know, if you came with me you wouldn't be pouting" Sidney told her.
"You know, if you left tomorrow morning we could have one last night of wild hot sex and I wouldn't be pouting then either."
"Now you tell me baby."
"If you would have read between the lines of 'please don't leave until Monday morning' then we wouldn't be having this conversation."
"Why do you always make leaving you so hard?" he said pulling into the short term parking lot at the airport.
Karen got out of the car after he parked it "because I want you to miss me terribly" she said waiting for him to get his bag out of the car.
Sidney put his bag down on the asphalt and took Karen into his arms "what ever gave you the idea I never miss you?"
"I love you. I want you to go, have fun but most importantly think of me any and every chance you get."
"That's not hard to do since I do it anyway, and I love you too baby" he said kissing her with a heated, passionate kiss. They broke apart and headed inside. When they got to the ticket counter, Flower and Vero was there getting him checked in.
"Hey girl" Vero said greeting her friend "sucks they're leaving us huh?"
"Yeah but you know, with them gone we can have our pick of anyone that's single and left here" Karen said getting a look from both Sidney and Marc.
"I know what you mean. How will we ever choose between Geno, Staalsy, and Tanger" Vero said getting a laugh out of Karen.
"Mmm, can make my fantasy a reality with Tanger."
"You two are the worst" Sidney said as they walked over to the girls still standing there laughing.
"Oh come on, you know we're just joking" she told him wrapping her arms around him.
"Besides, Karen and I have the best out of the bunch" Vero added.
The girls got the guys laughing and they headed towards security check point. Sidney stepped aside with Karen to tell her goodbye as Marc did the same with Vero.
"I do wish you could come with me now instead of later."
"Me too, but you'll be playing games every other day and I don't want to rock the boat at work asking for another 3 weeks off."
"I know" he said kissing her, making sure it lasted a bit longer. "I'll call you tonight after I get settled."
"I'll be waiting." They shared another kiss before Sidney broke it and grabbed Marc, going through security. The girls waved to them before they caught the tram to the gates then left themselves.
The Olympics were officially underway and Canada had only one loss...to the USA. It tore Karen apart to be happy USA won, but sad for Sidney to lose. She had to think if this game would repeat for the Gold Medal her heart would be torn again. After all the preliminary games were finished, the next round was set and Karen had her timeframe to be with Sidney.
She had called Sidney and told him when her flight would be in and he told her he'd be there since they didn't have a game that day. Karen knew she wouldn't be able to stay in the village with him but Sidney already had a hotel room reserved for her. When he went to the airport and saw her, both Sidney and Karen restrained themselves in public for fear of what would come out in the media. They got in the car and headed to the hotel.
Sidney had her room key already and they walked in going straight to the room. After Karen opened the door and Sidney carried in her bag, the door shut and the bag got thrown to the floor as they embaced each other. Their lips met in a reckless kiss as clothes were taken off in record time.
"You can't imagine how much I missed you" Sidney said as he picked up her naked body and put her on the bed, slamming into her as they hit the mattress.
"Oh god, I think I can stud" she said loving how he pounded into her. Sidney sat up on his hands, hovering over her body to get better leverage on his thrusts. Karen made sure she had her legs spread as wide as they went so he could go as deep as he could. Sidney felt her fingernails dig into his hips as she grabbed them, helping him go harder. Karen couldn't hold on much longer and felt her orgasm rise from her body. She leaned her head back into the mattress as her body shook and helped bring Sidney's orgasm out too. After he came hard within her core, Sidney collapsed on top of her both gasping for some much needed breath.
"Damn baby, that was hotter than I thought."
"Hotter than I fantasized stud" she said kissing the top of his shoulder.
Sidney lifted off her body and looked at her "I love it when you fantasize about me."
"There's no one else studly." Karen smiled and cocked an eyebrow "want me to show you how I fantasized it?"
"Please do baby."
Karen told Sidney to get off her and he did. She got off the bed and brought him along with her. They walked over to the living room area and she had Sidney sit in the chair. Karen knelt down in front of him and took his cock into her mouth. Karen went fast then slow, making sure to suck hard as she came off him. Sidney couldn't help but move his hands into her hair and gripping tightly as she moved on him. Karen got him to shoot off and took everything he had to offer. When she was done, she looked up at him and sat up massaging him hard again. When he was ready, Karen got off her knees and turned around with her back facing Sidney. She straddled his lap and slid down over his hard cock. Sidney felt her juices coat him as he stretched her to fit him again. She put her hands on his knees and began riding him. Karen started off slow and would pick up the pace a little only to slow back down again. Sidney was mesmerized as he watched her move up and down on his cock, turning him on more. He wanted to let her be in control, but he couldn't handle it and stopped her, standing them up. Karen smiled knowing he just played right into her fantasy and kneeled on the chair sticking her ass out to him. Sidney slid back into her with ease and began his assault on her. He pounded into her like this was their last time together and got harder with each thrust. Karen couldn't hold in her orgasm and moaned out for him. Sidney kept pumping until he shot off inside her, slowing down when he was finished. He brought Karen up against him and their lips met for another heated kiss.
"God, I've missed you" she said smiling.
"I've missed you too baby" he said pulling out of her and bringing her over to the bed. They laid down and held each other. "You do know I can't stay with you tonight or any night you're here."
"I figured you would have to stay in the village. Will you just leave me some shopping money on the nightstand when you leave me after a couple hours of wild sex?" she said smiling at him.
"How about I just give you a credit card and just spend what you want?"
"Even better stud. I'll even buy you something nice."
"Really? And what would that be?"
"I'll have to surprise you and give it to you when you win the Gold Medal."
Sidney sat up on his elbow "you so sure it's going to happen?"
"Why wouldn't I be? You have just as good a shot as any other team but to say you guys aren't the favorite is stupid. Between Canada and the USA, you both have strong teams and it'll be a dogfight if you meet each other for the Gold."
"We do have a strong team" he said seeing Karen smile "see, I can be positive too baby."
"Yeah you can...as long as you listen to me."
Sidney leaned down and kissed her then noticed the time "I need to go." He kissed her again and reluctantly got up and picked up his clothes, getting dressed. Karen found her underwear and t-shirt putting them on. They embaced once more before she walked him to the door "before I forget" he pulled tickets and a pass out of his coat pocket "this will get you into every game Team Canada plays in. Mom, Dad and Tay are around you so you won't be by yourself."
"What..no #87 Team Canada jersey for me to wear. Guess I'll have to sport my USA one if you end up playing them."
"Uh, that hurt" he said putting his hand over his heart "mom has it smartass. Like I would even forget the most vital part of this."
"Had to ask you know."
"Right" he said bringing her in for a long kiss "I love you and glad you're here."
"I love you too. Call me when you get to your room?"
"Absolutely" he said sneaking in another kiss "night baby."
"Night stud." Sidney finally let her go and walked down the hallway with Karen watching him until he turned the corner to go to the elevator. She walked back into the room and laid on the bed with her cell phone beside her.
"You know, if you came with me you wouldn't be pouting" Sidney told her.
"You know, if you left tomorrow morning we could have one last night of wild hot sex and I wouldn't be pouting then either."
"Now you tell me baby."
"If you would have read between the lines of 'please don't leave until Monday morning' then we wouldn't be having this conversation."

Chapter 13
Karen got up and got ready before heading downstairs. As she came out of the bedroom, she spotted Trina at the top of the steps heading down herself.
"I guess you can never take the child out of them" she told her mother-in-law.
"You said a mouthful child, Troy heard Taylor and ran out as fast as he could" she said getting them to laugh. "Little surprised you aren't already down there."
"Someone has to be the adult in this relationship" she said as they reach the doorway to the living room and saw what was unfolding in front of them. They both looked at each other and shook their heads before joining everyone. Paper was flying around and laughs were heard throughout the house as everyone opened their gifts.
"Here Karen, this is for you" Taylor said handing her a box.
"I told Sid for you guys not to get me anything. Having all of you here was enough for me."
"Well everyone listened but me. I saw this and thought of you, so it's only from me."
"You are just like your brother."
Taylor looked at Sidney and smiled "is that a bad thing?"
"Hey now, thought you wanted to be like me Tay?"
"Only in the game of hockey bro" she said getting Karen to laugh.
"Find that funny baby?"
"Yes considering she plays goalie like your dad did." Sidney just rolled his eyes as Karen smiled and gave him a kiss before opening her gift. "Taylor, this is beautiful" Karen said pulling out a cardigan sweater in a pretty lilac color.
"It's suppose to be oversized a little so don't worry if it fits big."
Karen stood and tried it on. It was a little big in size only but the sleeves fit perfectly "no I love it. It's so comfy and roomie, thanks" she said hugging her.
"Mind if I make some breakfast Karen?" Trina asked over everyone.
"No go ahead, want some help?"
"Sit and relax, mom and I can handle it. You'll have enough to do later today."
"Sid, can I go down to the basement and play around?"
"Yeah go ahead."
"Dad, will you shoot pucks on me?"
"Love to" he said getting up and following her towards the basement.
"Did they all plan that?" Karen asked Sidney as they were the only ones left in the living room.
"They must have" he said leaning in to kiss her. "Thank you for inviting my family down for today."
"Well they're technically my family too so it was a no brainer."
Sidney put his hand to her face and lightly caressed her cheek "I don't think I could see my life without you. I have this need to see and talk to you everyday."
"Is either one of us going somewhere?"
"Not now but in a couple months I'll be heading to Vancouver for a few weeks."
"But we will only be apart for the first week and a half."
"One day away from you is tough enough, 10 days and I'm about to rip everyone's head off until I see you."
"You do know I don't mind you relieving all that sexual tension when we 're not together."
"My hand is not you baby."
"I am so glad your mom and grandmothers are not around to hear that" she said giggling "but I know what you mean."
"Thank you for being part of my life Karen."
"Thank you for bringing love back into mine." Sidney leaned in and met his lips with hers until a cleared throat broke them apart.
"Breakfast is ready if you two want any" Trina said then turned back into the kitchen smiling at them.
"Food isn't what I want but since all my family is here, it will have to do" Sidney said getting up and bringing Karen with him.
"Am I gonna have to throw you into the snow?"
"No, just be ready for tonight" he whispered as they walked into the kitchen to eat with everyone.
After breakfast, Karen began getting things ready so dinner time wouldn't be so hectic and most everything would cook around the same time. It was also nice that she could just sit around with Sidney and his family enjoying the atmosphere.
A few hours later, Karen, Trina and Sidney's grandmothers were in the kitchen getting dinner finished. Since Karen could eat turkey every day of the year, she obliged Trina with a ham but she got a couple turkey thighs and breasts for her and in case anyone else wanted some.
They were getting the final touches on dinner and got everyone to the table to eat. After Troy said Grace, Karen cleared her throat to get everyone's attention.
"I just wanted to say how thankful I am that you all came down to celebrate Christmas with Sid and I. I know we all didn't have the best beginning, but I am very grateful that you all accepted me and allowed me to be apart of your family."
Trina gave Troy a look and knew he needed to say something as well. "Actually Karen, I don't think any of us would have wanted it any other way. Yes, the beginning wasn't the best but seeing how happy you've made Sid, we're all glad that we've gotten past it and can be one big happy family."
"Thank you Troy, that really means a lot coming from you" she said as he lifted his glass to her. They all clinked glasses then began eating, but not until Karen closed her eyes and smiled when she felt Sidney's lips on her temple.
After dinner, Karen insisted that everyone go sit and relax and let her clean up. She was in the kitchen doing dishes when Sidney brought in the last of them and put them beside the sink. Karen smiled when she felt his arms wrap around her waist and his lips kiss her neck "Um, why don't you save this for later and help me finish the dishes?"
"Why can't I do this while you finish the dishes?"
"Because I can't concentrate on finishing the dishes while you're doing this."
"Then I must be doing a good job."
Karen put the dish she finished rinsing in the drainer and turned around in his arms "why do you do this when your family's in the next room?"
"I guess it's some low-lying fantasy about having someone walk in to catch us."
"Um, please tell me you do realize it's your family you're talking about and know that's really creepy?"
"To me, they're faceless people" he said getting Karen to laugh "oh alright, I'll wait."
"Good" she said bringing her wet hands up and rubbing them over Sidney's face.
"I will so enjoy getting you back for that."
"I count down the hours until you do studly." Sidney's smiled faded as he leaned in and kissed her slowly, but full of passion. He ended the kiss and left her standing there. Karen just bit her bottom lip and smiled to herself before finishing up the rest of the dishes.
Later that night, everyone was sitting in the living room talking and watching tv until one by one, they went to bed leaving Sidney and Karen alone again.
"I'm so glad I get you for the weekend" Karen said cuddling up to Sidney.
"Well not the whole weekend, we have practice tomorrow morning and then a game Sunday night."
"I know but you're here and not leaving for a road game and I don't have to work. We can be us this weekend."
"Makes it great doesn't it."
"Are we implying something Crosby?"
"Where would you get an idea like that?"
"Sid..."
"Baby, tell me you are truly happy with your job?" he said getting her to look at him "I've seen the way you've been when you come home and when you get up in the morning it's like you're dreading it. What's going on?"
"I hate being treated unfairly and the favortism just makes it exhausting trying to prove yourself."
"Then don't put up with it anymore."
"I know I shouldn't but I love being around my friends, eventhough only a few are asses and ruin it for all."
"You really hate them that much huh?"
"Let's just say I want to be really nice and invite them to a game..."
"That's nice of you."
"Only if I can tie them to the goal posts and you shoot pucks at them."
"That might not be a good idea baby."
"Fine, I'll get Max or Staalsy to help. They'll do anything for me you know."
"We could always get Cookie to beat the shit out of them?"
"See, I knew you loved me" she smiled as she turned around to face him "I love you and if it gets any worse, I will seriously think about quitting ok?"
"I just want you to be happy Karen."
"I am Sid, more than you know" she said leaning in to kiss him "join me upstairs?"
"Love to. Let me lock up and I will meet you up there." Karen kissed him again and headed up as Sidney went around to make sure everything was shut and locked.
A few minutes later, Sidney headed upstairs and went to the bedroom. He opened the door and saw Karen lying on the bed in her bra and panties. "You know, to maybe sweeten the deal, you could wait for me like this everytime I come home."
"Wouldn't that only sweeten the deal for you? What would I get out of it?" Sidney cocked his eyebrow and undressed until he was only in his boxers. He crawled up on the bed and laid infront of Karen "hot, steamy sex that would blow your mind everyday of your life."
Karen brought her hand up and rubbed it over his chest "we have that anyway, what would be the difference?"
"You'd have more energy since you wouldn't have spent 8 hours standing on your feet all day."
"But then I'd be sitting or lying around all day."
"For the sake of not having an argument, it would benefit both of us."
"You give in too easily Crosby."
"I don't like putting off what I came here to do."
Karen moved her hand from his chest to his stomach then down over his crotch "then by all means, let me get you going in the right direction."
Sidney closed his eyes loving the feeling of her hand rubbing over him. He had enough and removed her hand, turning her over on to her back. He got off her bra and panties then moved to get his boxers off before lying down on top of her. "I've been going for awhile now, remember in the kitchen."
Karen spread her legs open wide and gave Sidney full access "damn stud, you've been able to hold out that long with your parents, grandmothers, and sister in the house."
"Right now" he said as he entered inside her slowly "there's no one here but us." Karen just raised her eyebrows and brought his lips down to meet hers. She wrapped her legs around his thighs and tightened her grip with every thrust Sidney made into her. Their kiss continued to stiffle any moans that wanted to escape, but when Karen orgasm ripped through her body, she had to break the kiss and quietly express her sensations. Sidney gave a couple more hard thrusts and filled her up, sending a low growl into her neck. He looked up after a minute and met her lips for another searing kiss. After a few more minutes of passionate kisses, Sidney rolled off Karen before bringing her back into his body and cuddled up as they fell into a peaceful sleep.
"I guess you can never take the child out of them" she told her mother-in-law.
"You said a mouthful child, Troy heard Taylor and ran out as fast as he could" she said getting them to laugh. "Little surprised you aren't already down there."
"Someone has to be the adult in this relationship" she said as they reach the doorway to the living room and saw what was unfolding in front of them.

"Well everyone listened but me. I saw this and thought of you, so it's only from me."

"Mind if I make some breakfast Karen?" Trina asked over everyone.
"No go ahead, want some help?"
"Sit and relax, mom and I can handle it. You'll have enough to do later today."
"Sid, can I go down to the basement and play around?"
"Yeah go ahead."
"Dad, will you shoot pucks on me?"
"Love to" he said getting up and following her towards the basement.
"Did they all plan that?" Karen asked Sidney as they were the only ones left in the living room.
"They must have" he said leaning in to kiss her. "Thank you for inviting my family down for today."
"Well they're technically my family too so it was a no brainer."
Sidney put his hand to her face and lightly caressed her cheek "I don't think I could see my life without you. I have this need to see and talk to you everyday."
"Is either one of us going somewhere?"
"Not now but in a couple months I'll be heading to Vancouver for a few weeks."
"But we will only be apart for the first week and a half."
"One day away from you is tough enough, 10 days and I'm about to rip everyone's head off until I see you."
"You do know I don't mind you relieving all that sexual tension when we 're not together."
"My hand is not you baby."
"I am so glad your mom and grandmothers are not around to hear that" she said giggling "but I know what you mean."
"Thank you for being part of my life Karen."
"Thank you for bringing love back into mine." Sidney leaned in and met his lips with hers until a cleared throat broke them apart.
"Breakfast is ready if you two want any" Trina said then turned back into the kitchen smiling at them.
"Food isn't what I want but since all my family is here, it will have to do" Sidney said getting up and bringing Karen with him.
"Am I gonna have to throw you into the snow?"
"No, just be ready for tonight" he whispered as they walked into the kitchen to eat with everyone.
After breakfast, Karen began getting things ready so dinner time wouldn't be so hectic and most everything would cook around the same time. It was also nice that she could just sit around with Sidney and his family enjoying the atmosphere.
A few hours later, Karen, Trina and Sidney's grandmothers were in the kitchen getting dinner finished. Since Karen could eat turkey every day of the year, she obliged Trina with a ham but she got a couple turkey thighs and breasts for her and in case anyone else wanted some.
They were getting the final touches on dinner and got everyone to the table to eat. After Troy said Grace, Karen cleared her throat to get everyone's attention.
"I just wanted to say how thankful I am that you all came down to celebrate Christmas with Sid and I. I know we all didn't have the best beginning, but I am very grateful that you all accepted me and allowed me to be apart of your family."
Trina gave Troy a look and knew he needed to say something as well. "Actually Karen, I don't think any of us would have wanted it any other way. Yes, the beginning wasn't the best but seeing how happy you've made Sid, we're all glad that we've gotten past it and can be one big happy family."
"Thank you Troy, that really means a lot coming from you" she said as he lifted his glass to her. They all clinked glasses then began eating, but not until Karen closed her eyes and smiled when she felt Sidney's lips on her temple.
After dinner, Karen insisted that everyone go sit and relax and let her clean up. She was in the kitchen doing dishes when Sidney brought in the last of them and put them beside the sink. Karen smiled when she felt his arms wrap around her waist and his lips kiss her neck "Um, why don't you save this for later and help me finish the dishes?"
"Why can't I do this while you finish the dishes?"
"Because I can't concentrate on finishing the dishes while you're doing this."
"Then I must be doing a good job."
Karen put the dish she finished rinsing in the drainer and turned around in his arms "why do you do this when your family's in the next room?"
"I guess it's some low-lying fantasy about having someone walk in to catch us."
"Um, please tell me you do realize it's your family you're talking about and know that's really creepy?"
"To me, they're faceless people" he said getting Karen to laugh "oh alright, I'll wait."
"Good" she said bringing her wet hands up and rubbing them over Sidney's face.
"I will so enjoy getting you back for that."
"I count down the hours until you do studly." Sidney's smiled faded as he leaned in and kissed her slowly, but full of passion. He ended the kiss and left her standing there. Karen just bit her bottom lip and smiled to herself before finishing up the rest of the dishes.
Later that night, everyone was sitting in the living room talking and watching tv until one by one, they went to bed leaving Sidney and Karen alone again.
"I'm so glad I get you for the weekend" Karen said cuddling up to Sidney.
"Well not the whole weekend, we have practice tomorrow morning and then a game Sunday night."
"I know but you're here and not leaving for a road game and I don't have to work. We can be us this weekend."
"Makes it great doesn't it."
"Are we implying something Crosby?"
"Where would you get an idea like that?"
"Sid..."
"Baby, tell me you are truly happy with your job?" he said getting her to look at him "I've seen the way you've been when you come home and when you get up in the morning it's like you're dreading it. What's going on?"
"I hate being treated unfairly and the favortism just makes it exhausting trying to prove yourself."
"Then don't put up with it anymore."
"I know I shouldn't but I love being around my friends, eventhough only a few are asses and ruin it for all."
"You really hate them that much huh?"
"Let's just say I want to be really nice and invite them to a game..."
"That's nice of you."
"Only if I can tie them to the goal posts and you shoot pucks at them."
"That might not be a good idea baby."
"Fine, I'll get Max or Staalsy to help. They'll do anything for me you know."
"We could always get Cookie to beat the shit out of them?"
"See, I knew you loved me" she smiled as she turned around to face him "I love you and if it gets any worse, I will seriously think about quitting ok?"
"I just want you to be happy Karen."
"I am Sid, more than you know" she said leaning in to kiss him "join me upstairs?"
"Love to. Let me lock up and I will meet you up there." Karen kissed him again and headed up as Sidney went around to make sure everything was shut and locked.
A few minutes later, Sidney headed upstairs and went to the bedroom. He opened the door and saw Karen lying on the bed in her bra and panties. "You know, to maybe sweeten the deal, you could wait for me like this everytime I come home."
"Wouldn't that only sweeten the deal for you? What would I get out of it?" Sidney cocked his eyebrow and undressed until he was only in his boxers. He crawled up on the bed and laid infront of Karen "hot, steamy sex that would blow your mind everyday of your life."
Karen brought her hand up and rubbed it over his chest "we have that anyway, what would be the difference?"
"You'd have more energy since you wouldn't have spent 8 hours standing on your feet all day."
"But then I'd be sitting or lying around all day."
"For the sake of not having an argument, it would benefit both of us."
"You give in too easily Crosby."
"I don't like putting off what I came here to do."
Karen moved her hand from his chest to his stomach then down over his crotch "then by all means, let me get you going in the right direction."
Sidney closed his eyes loving the feeling of her hand rubbing over him. He had enough and removed her hand, turning her over on to her back. He got off her bra and panties then moved to get his boxers off before lying down on top of her. "I've been going for awhile now, remember in the kitchen."
Karen spread her legs open wide and gave Sidney full access "damn stud, you've been able to hold out that long with your parents, grandmothers, and sister in the house."
"Right now" he said as he entered inside her slowly "there's no one here but us." Karen just raised her eyebrows and brought his lips down to meet hers. She wrapped her legs around his thighs and tightened her grip with every thrust Sidney made into her. Their kiss continued to stiffle any moans that wanted to escape, but when Karen orgasm ripped through her body, she had to break the kiss and quietly express her sensations. Sidney gave a couple more hard thrusts and filled her up, sending a low growl into her neck. He looked up after a minute and met her lips for another searing kiss. After a few more minutes of passionate kisses, Sidney rolled off Karen before bringing her back into his body and cuddled up as they fell into a peaceful sleep.

Chapter 12
As days and weeks went by, Christmas was right around the corner. Since this was the year of the new house, Sidney had invited his family down so Karen could entertain since she couldn't over Thanksgiving. Karen managed to get Christmas Eve and Day off which worked out perfectly.
A couple days before Christmas, three friends got together to exchange gifts and enjoy their own little Christmas lunch with each other.
"So, do you have any ideas what Sid is getting you?" Diane asked.
"Sidney is not allowed to get me anything. We made a pact to not get anything for each other this year since he has everything and I wouldn't be able to come up with anything for him."
"Like that will stop him" Sheril added "you know he'll find something for you."
"Yeah and when I have absolutely nothing for him it'll look bad."
"Not really, just use what you got and make that his present."
"Not following."
"Duh woman, go shopping for some kick ass lingerie and let him open you." Karen and Diane just looked at each other "what, like neither of you would have thought of that" Sheril said to her friends.
"As much as I hate to say this, she is right."
"Oh like it's such a burden to say I'm right, geesh."
"Maybe you do have a point."
"And tomorrow we will head to South Hills and hit Victoria Secrets."
"You want to go shopping on Christmas Eve?"
"Come on, it's the only place we need to go and we'll get there for when they open."
"Diane, you want to join us?"
"Would love to but we're heading to Bernie's parents house for the day and dinner. But please text me and let me know what you got."
"Will do."
Sheril raised her glass and the others did too "And Sidney won't know what knocked him on his ass." All three clinked glasses and laughed.
"I wish Nat was here with us."
"Me too but Max wanted to go home for the two days off and she went with him."
"Enjoying Sid's parents and sister in the new house Karen?"
"Don't forget his grandmothers too. It's fine, I love the family atmosphere. SInce they all love me now, it's not a problem."
"Do you think it would have lasted this long if they never got over their feelings from when they met you?"
"I don't know" Karen said but now wondered if they would be together if they still didn't like her. As they sat and finished their lunch, it still plagued her to wonder what if. When they were done, Karen headed home after making plans with Sheril.
After Karen got home, she walked in and saw Sidney with his family all in the living room talking. She stood there watching until Sidney broke her out of her thoughts.
"Hey baby, how was lunch?"
"It was good."
Sidney just nodded and took her hand leading her into the kitchen "what happened?"
"It's nothing. Diane just asked me something and it got me thinking."
"Well we ain't going anywhere until you tell me."
Karen looked down "she asked if we would still be together if your family hadn't turned around and liked me. I told her I didn't know" she said slowly bringing her head up to lock eyes with him.
"You don't know if we'd still be together if they never liked you?" he said somewhat confused.
"Sid, you broke up with me because they told you to."
"And we got back together when I decided I couldn't be without you."
"Right but now put your parents in your ear everytime you talk to them telling you, you made the wrong choice. You think we'd be here in this time and place if they still hated me? I love you and I love my life with you but you can't be mad at me for wondering what if" she said before walking out of the kitchen and going upstairs.
"Hey, just passed Karen going upstairs, everything ok?" Trina asked Sidney.
"Yeah, she's just going to change and come back down to join us."
"You know, I still can tell when you're not telling me everything."
"If you and dad decided to still not like her and we were together, would you just let it be or hound me like you did over the summer to break it off with her?"
"I think if we still didn't like her but you love her, we probably would have left it alone knowing you weren't going to do anything. Why?"
"Her friend brought it up at lunch and I guess it got Karen thinking. Can't blame her though for all she went through that summer."
"She's rethinking about being with you?"
"No, but if I didn't fight to get her back you have to wonder what our life would be like today."
"I don't think either of you need to worry about what might have been. Anyone can see how much you love each other."
"Yeah, you're right. By the way, were you able to get it?"
"Of course. Went to the same place and it matches exactly" she said handing him the small box.
"I just hope she likes it."
"She'll love it Sid, so quit worrying" she said giving him a kiss on the cheek and left him alone. He looked at his present to Karen one last time before putting it away where he can surprise her with it later.
Later that night after everyone went to bed, Sidney and Karen were sitting on the couch snuggled up in front of the fireplace.
Karen sat up and looked at him "what do you mean Sid?"
He made a move and got a box out of his pocket "I know we said we weren't going to get each other anything, but I had to get you this." Sidney handed her the box and waited for her to open it.
Karen just gave him a look then smiled as she opened the box. Her smiled soon faded into shock as she saw the piece of jewelry staring back at her. "Is this?"
"Yep."
Karen looked back between the necklace and Sidney "this is exactly like your necklace Sid, with the 87 charm and even the chain is the same."
Sidney saw her eyes welling up with tears "I found the one thing I had that you needed."
"Sid?" Karen said in a whisper as the tears escaped down her cheeks.
"So I know how much trouble I'm in" he said smiling "are those happy tears or 'I'm so mad at you for going against our pact' tears?"
"They're I love you tears" she said leaning in to kiss him. "But yes, I am a little mad you went against our pact. I seriously have nothing for you."
"Haven't you learned by know that just spending today and all day tomorrow with you is all the present I need?"
"Apparently not" Karen said wiping her cheeks and laughing "but I've also told you that you don't have to keep giving me things."
"Then after tonight I will completely stop giving you presents" Sidney said sitting back into the couch and crossing his arms over his chest. Karen smiled and grabbed for his hand "but know this baby, you will see something and give me a hint in your own subtle way and I'm not going to get it for you."
"As long as I have you, I really don't need anything else stud. Will you at least put my last present on me?"
"That I can do." Karen handed him the necklace and she turned her back to him. When he brought it around front, Karen lifted her hair up so Sidney could see to clasp it. After he hooked it, Sidney placed kisses to her neck making her lean into his soft, warm lips. "Turn around and let me see" he asked and Karen turned back to face him "just how I pictured it."
"Thank you. I love it and will cherish it forever."
"Just wear it everyday, that's all I ask baby."
"I will never have a reason to take it off Sid." Sidney made a move and grabbed her hips, helping to move her onto his lap so she was straddling him and staring into his eyes "your family is upstairs Sid, we can't go where you want to down here."
Sidney leaned in and placed a light kiss on her lips. Karen instantly gave in and let the kiss go where it needed. As the kiss deepened, Sidney hands made their way from Karen's back to her stomach. She felt Sidney move his hands under her shirt and caress her breasts "let's head upstairs baby."
Karen just smiled and gave him another kiss. She made a move to get off his lap but couldn't "you might want to let go of the girls first stud."
"I would but I just love them so much."
Karen leaned in and whispered "they're more fun to play with when there aren't clothes covering them." She felt Sidney remove his hands so she could get up "I knew that would persuade you" Karen said stepping back to help him up. Sidney wrapped his arms around her letting their lips meet again "stop torturing me by keeping me here longer."
"Anxious are we baby?"
"For you...always and forever stud" she said getting out of his grip and taking his hand, leading the way to their bedroom. Karen pointed to the bed and Sidney went to sit down on it as Karen disappeared into the bathroom. She came out 15 minutes later with a silk robe on.
"What's this?" Sidney asked smiling.
"Since I knew you would break the pact and get me a present...I decided to get you one just in case. But you have to unwrap it first" she said playing with the string.
"You need to come a little closer baby" he said as Karen walked slowly towards him. Sidney grabbed it and pulled to let the bow untie. He reached up finished untying it until it fell to her sides. "You know, as much I like where this is going I think I'd rather see you finish unwrapping my gift."
Karen took a step back and brought her hands up, lightly grazing the fabric, She gripped it in both hands and brought it off her shoulders, letting it fall freely off her body revealing a black lace bra with gold trim around the top of her breasts and a black thong with the same gold trim around the edges. She saw Sidney sit there shocked "well? Do you like your present?"
"My god...I mean wow...its just...damn you look beatuiful."
"I'd bet you say that to all the girl that look like this for you."
"Considering in the past couple of years you have been the only one to look like this for me, I'd say it was a safe bet. I serious baby, you look stunning."
"Thanks" she smiled sweetly "been toning up before the Thanksgiving and Christmas 15 hit me."
"Even if those extra pounds found their way to this body I don't know see where it would show."
"Now you're just being nice."
"It's because I want my present now."
"And how would you like your present?"
Sidney got up and stood behind her, putting his hands on her hips. He led her to the bed and turned her to face him. Karen moved her hands to behind her back and was about to unhook the bra until Sidney stopped her "I want it left on...all of it" he said in a voice dripping of want and need. Karen bit her lower lip remembering the last time they made love with her bra and panties on. All she could do was nod in agreement and Sidney picked her up and placed her in the middle of the bed. He got undressed completely before climbing on the bed and directly over Karen's body. She laid there looking at his naked body and her insides were aching badly for him to touch her. She reached out her hand and lightly grazed his half erect cock, making Sidney shiver with excitment and become harder with each passing touch. He grabbed her hands and hovered over her body as he dipped his head down to capture her lips for a very heated kiss. Karen poured all her feelings into that kiss telling Sidney she needed him now. Sidney left her lips and trailed kisses down her body until he got to her fabric covered mound. He lightly touched over the fabric and Karen began to squirm her hips. Sidney moved off her and went over to the closet. He grabbed a silk scarf that Karen had in there and brought it back over to the bed.
"You know, I remember one time you tied me to the bed and I don't ever think I got to repay the favor baby."
"Just don't tie it too tight stud." Sidney smiled and took one of her hands and bringing it to the headboard. She took ahold of one of the bars and Sidney put the scarf around the bar and Karen's wrist, lightly making a knot. On instinct, Karen moved her other hand to another bar and Sidney brought the rest of the scarf over and tied the end around her wrist. She moved her wrists around and smiled telling him she was fine.
Sidney moved back to her legs and spread them apart as wide as he could without hurting her. He smiled at Karen when he stuck out a finger and went to her panties, pulling the fabric to one side exposing her swollen lips. Sidney thought about just sliding his aching cock inside of her but since he had her at a vulnerable position, he decided to play for a few minutes to make sure she was truly ready for him. Karen sucked in a deep breath when she felt Sidney's tongue dart inside her opening. He kept sliding it in and out making her hips lift off the bed. He grabbed them and held her down as he continued his assault and made her orgasm come racing out. Karen knew with a houseful of Sidney's family, she needed to be quiet even if they were on the other side of the house. As her breathing settled, Sidney crawled up on his knees and put Karen's legs over his thighs. He got as close as he could to her, grabbing her hips and bringing her up until his cock was right at her opening, sliding slowly inside of her. Karen did quietly moan out as she felt him inside of her, inching his way to her core. Sidney kept ahold of her hips and began moving Karen on and off his cock. He had always had control of pounding into her but this time he wanted to control her. Sidney started out slow and savoring the feeling of bringing Karen to him, holding her there for a brief second before sliding her off him until he couldn't handle it and started going faster. Karen gripped the bar her hands were tied to as these new feelings were succumbing her to a whole other level of pleasure. She watched Sidney's facial expressions since the beginning of his torture of her and it turned her on more. Karen could tell this was bringing Sidney over the edge quicker and she hoped he brought her with him soon. When Sidney slowed down again after almost coming all the way out of her, he dug his fingers into Karen's skin and brought her back to him hard, making him slam deep inside her and letting a growl escape his lips. Sidney let go of her hips moving closer to her, hovering over her body and putting his hands on the bars above Karen's head. He controlled his hips to finish the job by pounding as hard as he could into her until they both unleashed their orgasmic fury. Sidney regained enough strength to meet her lips for a fiery kiss as he bucked his hips a last few times into her, releasing everything he had to offer her.
"Damn stud" she said still breathing heavy "where did all that come from?"
"Just something I wanted to try."
"Well plan to do that again...wow, that was hot."
Sidney untied her hands and collapsed on top of her, letting her arms wrap around his body "believe me, I plan to." They stayed locked together for a few minutes before Sidney rolled off her. Karen instinctly curled up to his body and fell into a content sleep.
The next morning, Karen awoke and smiled as she placed kisses to Sidney's chest. He stirred and let out a light moan.
"I love it when you wake me up this way."
"Duh, why do you think I'm doing it."
Sidney rolled them over onto her back and their lips met for an explosive kiss "Merry Christmas baby."
"Merry Christmas stud." Just as their lips were about to meet, a knock and voice interrupted them.
"Sid, come on. Its Christmas, let's go downstairs for all the presents" Taylor said through the door.
"I'll meet ya down there in a minute Tay."
"Ok, but I'm not waiting on you" she said to get Karen laughing.
"Spoken like a true women when presents are involved."
"To be continued?"
"You will always get a raincheck studly. Go down there before your sister opens all the gifts." Sidney kissed her before getting out of bed and putting on shorts and a t-shirt and leaving the room.
A couple days before Christmas, three friends got together to exchange gifts and enjoy their own little Christmas lunch with each other.
"So, do you have any ideas what Sid is getting you?" Diane asked.
"Sidney is not allowed to get me anything. We made a pact to not get anything for each other this year since he has everything and I wouldn't be able to come up with anything for him."
"Like that will stop him" Sheril added "you know he'll find something for you."

"Not really, just use what you got and make that his present."
"Not following."
"Duh woman, go shopping for some kick ass lingerie and let him open you." Karen and Diane just looked at each other "what, like neither of you would have thought of that" Sheril said to her friends.
"As much as I hate to say this, she is right."
"Oh like it's such a burden to say I'm right, geesh."
"Maybe you do have a point."
"And tomorrow we will head to South Hills and hit Victoria Secrets."
"You want to go shopping on Christmas Eve?"

"Will do."
Sheril raised her glass and the others did too "And Sidney won't know what knocked him on his ass." All three clinked glasses and laughed.
"I wish Nat was here with us."
"Me too but Max wanted to go home for the two days off and she went with him."
"Enjoying Sid's parents and sister in the new house Karen?"
"Don't forget his grandmothers too. It's fine, I love the family atmosphere. SInce they all love me now, it's not a problem."
"Do you think it would have lasted this long if they never got over their feelings from when they met you?"

"Hey, just passed Karen going upstairs, everything ok?" Trina asked Sidney.
"Yeah, she's just going to change and come back down to join us."
"You know, I still can tell when you're not telling me everything."
"If you and dad decided to still not like her and we were together, would you just let it be or hound me like you did over the summer to break it off with her?"

"She'll love it Sid, so quit worrying" she said giving him a kiss on the cheek and left him alone. He looked at his present to Karen one last time before putting it away where he can surprise her with it later.
The next morning, Sheril met Karen and they headed to South Hills to go shopping. They walked into Victoria Secrets and Karen smiled picturing Sidney's face as he could see her in everything.
"So what would Sidney like?"
"Are you kidding, he'd love me in it all."
"How about this one?" Sheril asked holding up a red bra and thong set.
"He would but I don't like it."
"Then what do you want?"
Karen looked through a couple more until she found it "something like this" she said showing her friend.
"I like it and I think Sid will to. Go try it on." Karen smiled and left her friend. A couple minutes later Karen came out and showed her friend "ok I was wrong, Sid is gonna love it."
"I believe this is the one" she said smiling then went back to change. Karen came back out and bought the bra and panty set. When she was done, they stopped at a couple more places before heading back to enjoy Christmas with their families.
Christmas Eve night and Karen was given the night off from cooking since she would be doing all of it tomorrow. Since she couldn't make Thanksgiving dinner for her family, she was excited to make the Christmas dinner. They had ordered Chinese take out and was enjoying the night together.Later that night after everyone went to bed, Sidney and Karen were sitting on the couch snuggled up in front of the fireplace.
"Are we ok?"
"We were never not ok Sid. When Diane asked me that it just rattled me. I would never give up my life that I have with you but it still lingers around. Losing you after that was something I never want to experience again."
"Neither of us will ever experience that, I will definitely keep that promise."
"You know, if we stay up past midnight Santa will never make an appearance" Karen said giggling into his chest, making Sidney smile and change the subject to something happier.
"Well he already gave me his present for you."
Karen sat up and looked at him "what do you mean Sid?"
He made a move and got a box out of his pocket "I know we said we weren't going to get each other anything, but I had to get you this." Sidney handed her the box and waited for her to open it.

"That I can do." Karen handed him the necklace and she turned her back to him. When he brought it around front, Karen lifted her hair up so Sidney could see to clasp it. After he hooked it, Sidney placed kisses to her neck making her lean into his soft, warm lips. "Turn around and let me see" he asked and Karen turned back to face him "just how I pictured it."
"Thank you. I love it and will cherish it forever."
"Just wear it everyday, that's all I ask baby."
"I will never have a reason to take it off Sid." Sidney made a move and grabbed her hips, helping to move her onto his lap so she was straddling him and staring into his eyes "your family is upstairs Sid, we can't go where you want to down here."
Sidney leaned in and placed a light kiss on her lips. Karen instantly gave in and let the kiss go where it needed. As the kiss deepened, Sidney hands made their way from Karen's back to her stomach. She felt Sidney move his hands under her shirt and caress her breasts "let's head upstairs baby."
Karen just smiled and gave him another kiss. She made a move to get off his lap but couldn't "you might want to let go of the girls first stud."
"I would but I just love them so much."
Karen leaned in and whispered "they're more fun to play with when there aren't clothes covering them." She felt Sidney remove his hands so she could get up "I knew that would persuade you" Karen said stepping back to help him up. Sidney wrapped his arms around her letting their lips meet again "stop torturing me by keeping me here longer."
"Anxious are we baby?"
"For you...always and forever stud" she said getting out of his grip and taking his hand, leading the way to their bedroom. Karen pointed to the bed and Sidney went to sit down on it as Karen disappeared into the bathroom. She came out 15 minutes later with a silk robe on.
"What's this?" Sidney asked smiling.
"Since I knew you would break the pact and get me a present...I decided to get you one just in case. But you have to unwrap it first" she said playing with the string.
"You need to come a little closer baby" he said as Karen walked slowly towards him. Sidney grabbed it and pulled to let the bow untie. He reached up finished untying it until it fell to her sides. "You know, as much I like where this is going I think I'd rather see you finish unwrapping my gift."
Karen took a step back and brought her hands up, lightly grazing the fabric, She gripped it in both hands and brought it off her shoulders, letting it fall freely off her body revealing a black lace bra with gold trim around the top of her breasts and a black thong with the same gold trim around the edges. She saw Sidney sit there shocked "well? Do you like your present?"
"My god...I mean wow...its just...damn you look beatuiful."
"I'd bet you say that to all the girl that look like this for you."
"Considering in the past couple of years you have been the only one to look like this for me, I'd say it was a safe bet. I serious baby, you look stunning."
"Thanks" she smiled sweetly "been toning up before the Thanksgiving and Christmas 15 hit me."
"Even if those extra pounds found their way to this body I don't know see where it would show."
"Now you're just being nice."
"It's because I want my present now."
"And how would you like your present?"
Sidney got up and stood behind her, putting his hands on her hips. He led her to the bed and turned her to face him. Karen moved her hands to behind her back and was about to unhook the bra until Sidney stopped her "I want it left on...all of it" he said in a voice dripping of want and need. Karen bit her lower lip remembering the last time they made love with her bra and panties on. All she could do was nod in agreement and Sidney picked her up and placed her in the middle of the bed. He got undressed completely before climbing on the bed and directly over Karen's body. She laid there looking at his naked body and her insides were aching badly for him to touch her. She reached out her hand and lightly grazed his half erect cock, making Sidney shiver with excitment and become harder with each passing touch. He grabbed her hands and hovered over her body as he dipped his head down to capture her lips for a very heated kiss. Karen poured all her feelings into that kiss telling Sidney she needed him now. Sidney left her lips and trailed kisses down her body until he got to her fabric covered mound. He lightly touched over the fabric and Karen began to squirm her hips. Sidney moved off her and went over to the closet. He grabbed a silk scarf that Karen had in there and brought it back over to the bed.
"You know, I remember one time you tied me to the bed and I don't ever think I got to repay the favor baby."
"Just don't tie it too tight stud." Sidney smiled and took one of her hands and bringing it to the headboard. She took ahold of one of the bars and Sidney put the scarf around the bar and Karen's wrist, lightly making a knot. On instinct, Karen moved her other hand to another bar and Sidney brought the rest of the scarf over and tied the end around her wrist. She moved her wrists around and smiled telling him she was fine.
Sidney moved back to her legs and spread them apart as wide as he could without hurting her. He smiled at Karen when he stuck out a finger and went to her panties, pulling the fabric to one side exposing her swollen lips. Sidney thought about just sliding his aching cock inside of her but since he had her at a vulnerable position, he decided to play for a few minutes to make sure she was truly ready for him. Karen sucked in a deep breath when she felt Sidney's tongue dart inside her opening. He kept sliding it in and out making her hips lift off the bed. He grabbed them and held her down as he continued his assault and made her orgasm come racing out. Karen knew with a houseful of Sidney's family, she needed to be quiet even if they were on the other side of the house. As her breathing settled, Sidney crawled up on his knees and put Karen's legs over his thighs. He got as close as he could to her, grabbing her hips and bringing her up until his cock was right at her opening, sliding slowly inside of her. Karen did quietly moan out as she felt him inside of her, inching his way to her core. Sidney kept ahold of her hips and began moving Karen on and off his cock. He had always had control of pounding into her but this time he wanted to control her. Sidney started out slow and savoring the feeling of bringing Karen to him, holding her there for a brief second before sliding her off him until he couldn't handle it and started going faster. Karen gripped the bar her hands were tied to as these new feelings were succumbing her to a whole other level of pleasure. She watched Sidney's facial expressions since the beginning of his torture of her and it turned her on more. Karen could tell this was bringing Sidney over the edge quicker and she hoped he brought her with him soon. When Sidney slowed down again after almost coming all the way out of her, he dug his fingers into Karen's skin and brought her back to him hard, making him slam deep inside her and letting a growl escape his lips. Sidney let go of her hips moving closer to her, hovering over her body and putting his hands on the bars above Karen's head. He controlled his hips to finish the job by pounding as hard as he could into her until they both unleashed their orgasmic fury. Sidney regained enough strength to meet her lips for a fiery kiss as he bucked his hips a last few times into her, releasing everything he had to offer her.
"Damn stud" she said still breathing heavy "where did all that come from?"
"Just something I wanted to try."
"Well plan to do that again...wow, that was hot."
Sidney untied her hands and collapsed on top of her, letting her arms wrap around his body "believe me, I plan to." They stayed locked together for a few minutes before Sidney rolled off her. Karen instinctly curled up to his body and fell into a content sleep.
The next morning, Karen awoke and smiled as she placed kisses to Sidney's chest. He stirred and let out a light moan.
"I love it when you wake me up this way."
"Duh, why do you think I'm doing it."
Sidney rolled them over onto her back and their lips met for an explosive kiss "Merry Christmas baby."
"Merry Christmas stud." Just as their lips were about to meet, a knock and voice interrupted them.
"Sid, come on. Its Christmas, let's go downstairs for all the presents" Taylor said through the door.
"I'll meet ya down there in a minute Tay."
"Ok, but I'm not waiting on you" she said to get Karen laughing.
"Spoken like a true women when presents are involved."
"To be continued?"
"You will always get a raincheck studly. Go down there before your sister opens all the gifts." Sidney kissed her before getting out of bed and putting on shorts and a t-shirt and leaving the room.
