There stood Karter, dressed in blue jeans and a black full-sleeved polo t-shirt with the sleeves rolled up to his elbows. The shirt was tight, pressing against his skin leaving little to the imagination. Giving me a good outline of his extravagant muscles.

Karter was holding a bouquet of red roses and there were 3 boxes in his other hand.

"Hi" I was smiling ear to ear.

Karter set the boxes down, "Happy birthday gorgeous" his lips extend into a broad grin as he extends the roses towards me.

"I can't believe you're here," I say wrapping my arms around his neck in a bone-crushing hug as he holds onto my waist tightly and kisses the corner of my neck. I inhale his cologne, I missed him.

"I'm sorry I practically missed your birthday but there was a blizzard in New York and they kept delaying all the flights" Karter apologizes as we pull away from the hug.

"No no this is the sweetest thing ever" I smile at him as he hands me the roses and I bring them to my nose, "These are so beautiful," I say looking at them.

"Not as beautiful as you," Karter says immediately my cheeks start to heat up, "seriously I dropped my jaw when I saw you walk into the gate," Karter says looking me up and down.

"Hope you haven't been waiting for too long?" I ask moving to unlock the door.

"About 30 ish minutes" Karter shrugs.

"I'm sorry," I say apologetically.

"Don't be, you're worth the wait" Karter whispers in my ear and I get goosebumps, I smile to myself stepping inside the house.

I set the bags from my friends on the table and walk towards the kitchen, Karter right behind me.

I set the roses down on the counter, "Let me find a vase for these" I look over at Karter who was still smiling. His smile always gives me butterflies and makes me feel warm and fuzzy if that makes any sense.

I carefully open the bouquet and start cutting the roses from the ends so they fit, Karter's body was right behind mine, he was leaning his chin on my shoulder and holding onto my waist hugging me from behind.

"you in this dress makes me feel like it's my birthday" Karter presses his lips to my naked shoulder softly. I was not opposed to how touchy he was being tonight. After a night of drinking out, I was feeling a little hazy and I had plans to sort myself out if you know what I mean but now that he's here maybe he could help with my sorting.

"yeah?" I ask putting the roses in the vase.

"my favorite kind of cake is right here" Karter whispers dropping his hands to my ass and squeezing it tightly. His touch giving me goosebumps.

I gasp immediately turning around, "getting a little ahead of ourselves are we?" I raise an eyebrow playfully.

Karter grins, biting his lower lips eyeing my body, "can't help myself" his dirty eyes making my heart beat faster.

"However" Karter grabs my waist and pulls me into him, "Kind of annoyed that other men got to see you in this tonight"

I pull away and fill the vase with water, "well must suck to be you" I joke turning back to face him.

"Who was that guy who dropped you home?" his mouth twists in distaste.

"Just one of my boyfriends, are you jealous?" I raise an eyebrow at him.

"I just might be" He tilts his head and I roll my eyes walking out of the kitchen, back into the living room, and taking a seat on the couch.

Karter grabs the things he was holding earlier and places them in my lap "I have a few things for you" Karter beams setting 3 boxes in my lap.

I pout, "You didn't have to do this"

Karter smiles, "Of course I did"

I set the two boxes aside and open the small black box, it was a Cartier gold necklace, I look up at Karter, "Karter this is too much"

"Stop it, do you like it?" He asks.

"Of course it's beautiful" I smile taking it out of the box and lifting it, "Put it on me please?"

Karter smiles taking the necklace from my hand, I turn the other way and Karter moves closer to me, he moves my hair to the side and locks the necklace around my neck, then kisses the back of my neck before moving away.

I turn around and smile, then look down at the necklace, "I love it"

Karter's thumb caresses my cheek, "It looks beautiful on you love." I stare in his ocean blue eyes and smile.

"Next gift," Karter says handing me a box that was pretty big.

I open it and gasp, inside was a black sweatshirt that had "Team Damon" embroidered on it, and under it was another black sweatshirt that read, "Not everybody has to be happy all the time, that's not mental health. that's crap. -Meredith Grey" embroidered on it. I was at a loss for words.

"Do you like it?" I look over at Karter who was looking at me hopefully.

I set the box down and straddle Karter's waist, I wrap my arms around his neck pulling him into a hug, immediately his hands were holding me by my waist, "Thank you, this means so much to me" I whisper still hugging. He clearly put so much thought into these sweatshirts and they aren't even sold on official websites so he had to go out of his way to make them and also him showing up here, I was just getting so emotional. Tears start to well up in my eyes and I blink them away until I think about my parents and they are back again.

"It was nothing" Karter lies holding me, "are you okay?" he asks after the hug goes on a little longer than normal.

I sniffle and pull away from him, "Yes sorry just a bit overwhelmed. This is so sweet, thank you" I cup his face and place a soft gentle kiss on his lips.

Karter smiles still holding me but moving a bit to grab the last box, "I thought you might have had a shit ton of cake already so I got cupcakes"

I smile, "I fucking love cupcakes" Karter chuckles as he opens the box letting go of my waist.

I'm such a whore for food, I just had cake an hour ago yet my mouth was watering at the sight of the chocolate and red velvet cupcakes.

"Which one?" Karter asks looking at me.

"I'm a whore for chocolate" Karter tips his head back and laughs. He picks it up and brings it to my face.

"Are you going to feed me?" I raise my eyebrows and he grins handing it to me.

I take a bite of the cupcake and a moan slips out of my lips and I close my eyes, I open them to see Karter staring at me rather amused. I flush and bite my lower lip, "I'm sorry it was just really good" I lick the frosting off my lips setting the cupcake down.

Karter puts it back in the box and hands me a red velvet one, "See if this one is better".

I take a bite and nod my head, then take another, "Hmm it's really good" I say.

"Not good enough for you to let out a moan though?" Karter smirks at me.

"Only some things are able to do that for me" I shrug and set it down.

"I'll have these later, I'm full right now," I say putting the box away and Karter nods.

I wrap my arms around his neck, fingers playing with the ends of his hair, "Thank you so much for all of this and for coming, seriously" I smile.

Karter squeezes my waist, "I missed you"

My eyes roam Karter's face, "You've been too good today, you might deserve a treat" I purr seductively.

Karter's eyes get darker, "Oh yeah?" He grunts as I move further into his lap and lightly grind my ass against his crouch causing him to groan.

I press my lips against Karter's, he grabs my waist pulling me even closer, my upper body pressing against his chest. My fingers start fondling his hair as our mouths push against one another, our tongues dancing by our lips teasing each other not willing to slide in just yet. Karter's hand drops down to my ass giving it a firm squeeze making me groan letting his tongue slide right into my mouth. I pull at his hair and slowly let my hands drop to his shoulders feeling his muscles flex as our mouths were pressed up together.

My hands slide underneath his shirt and I feel his toned skin under my fingers making me explode. Karter pulls away from the kiss and stares at me, his eyes black as a serial killer as my gaze was focused on his skin. I try to pull his shirt up, Karter lifts up his arms giving me permission as I slip the tight shirt off his arms. I lick my lips and my hands run up and down his milky-toned skin, I hear Karter moan as I bend down and lick his chest.

"Thank your personal trainer for me," I say rubbing his shoulders, slowly grinding myself against him, I felt his hardness start to poke my ass.

"I will love" Karter grabs my chin and presses our lips together once again. Everything was happening so slowly it was driving me crazy. Our mouths lazily hang on each other's as our hands respectively roamed and explored each other's bodies. Our tongues rolling over each other.

Karter's hand found the slit on my dress and started moving his hands up and down my thighs, rubbing them so delicately giving me goosebumps. I moan as his hands slide inside my dress, my core was already throbbing. Karter found my panties and started rubbing me making me break the kiss and let my head fall back. Karter's lips started placing soft kisses on my throat as I close my eyes the pleasure jolting through my body.

Karter slides his finger inside my panties making me gulp, afraid to open my eyes, Karter presses his fingers against my lips making me shiver. Karter licks down my throat as he slides a finger inside me. I take in a deep breath as he moves it inside me circularly, stretching out my walls. He then slides his other finger along making me hold onto his shoulders as I felt my knees go weak. Karter slowly started moving his fingers in and out of me making me moan. With every thrust, Karter pushes them deeper inside of me as my hips start rolling to his touch.

"You feel so good babe" Karter's raspy voice whispers in my ear and bites my earlobe making me moan.

Karter's other hand roams up my body until it's pressed against my cleavage, he slides his hand in the front of my dress and squeezes my right nipple between his thumb and index finger softly as his fingers were still moving in and out of me, increasing their pace with every thrust. I moan, "Ah Karter" I cry out.

I was on the verge of letting loose as Karter's fingers slowed down their pace and started stroking my clit ever so gently, almost like they were teasing me. I jolt my hips forward against his hand wanting him to move faster and I hear a chuckle out of Karter's lips. He was teasing me.

I open my eyes and he's staring at me with dark eyes, I bite my lip as his fingers continue to stroke my clit driving me insane, "Karter please" I beg, "I can't take this" It comes out as a moan as I throw my head back again and Karter's other fingers start tracing up and down my cleavage driving me insane.

Karter's fingers move deeper inside me again, applying more pressure to my clit making me lose all control. I dig my fingers into his bare shoulders as I roll my hips faster with each thrust.

"Oh, Oh, right there" I whimper biting my lip letting his fingers stretch me out, Karter slides a third finger inside of me making me feel stuffed in the best way possible. My wetness was working as a perfect lubricant as Karter thrusts in and out, rubbing against my clit as he was moving his fingers out of my pussy. I rest my head against Karter's neck, inhaling his scent. I felt my legs started to shake indicating I was so close.

My eyes roll to the back of my head, the pleasure consuming me, I bite Karter's neck rather hard causing him to grunt as I felt my orgasm ready to explode. I close my eyes as my vision started to get darker. I started breathing faster, "Ah I'm" I whimper burying my face in Karter's neck as my legs started thrusting slower and slower now and finally I let out a breath, "Karter" I mutter pressing my lips against his neck.

I was still holding onto Karter, trying to catch my breath as his fingers exit out of me. Karter start's running his fingers through my hair, soothing me, "Was that good for you?" Karter coos in my ear.

I nod and he places a kiss on my neck still holding me. This was one of the most intense orgasms I've had in my life, It felt like it lasted for hours and my body was still recovering. Yet, I was still ready for more.

I move my head from the crook of his neck and suddenly feel shy for some reason causing Karter to grin at me cheekily. I bite my lower lip and get off his lap, "let's go upstairs" I say softly extending my hand for Karter to take which he immediately does and we walk up the stairs.

We walk inside my bedroom and Karter closes the door behind him, there was only one lamp on in my room. "So this is what Maria Reed's bedroom looks like?" Karter grins looking around.

I smile moving towards him wrapping my arms around his neck, "Not many get the privilege to be up here, you should feel special" Karter's hands latch onto my ass gripping it tightly.

"Oh, I do" Karter smirks and presses his lips onto mine. We move back until we fall onto the bed, Karter on top of me. We pull away from the kiss and stare into each other's eyes, Karter caresses my cheeks as his other hand was running up and down my body giving me shivers. I gulp as Karter's hand reaches the hem of my dress and he slowly started pulling it up.

We both sit up on the bed and I raise my hands up as Karter slips the dress off my body and tosses it on the ground. His eyes immediately get darker roaming up and down my semi-covered body.

"Holy Shit" Karter mutters, running his fingers up and down my body, leaving me on the bed in only my underwear and heels. Karter gently pushes me on the bed getting on top of me, his mouth attached to my neck placing kisses lower and lower, his hands groping my boobs making me arch my back, his hands slide lower and lower, his touch gave me an electric shock as his mouth was moving along with his hands, placing wet kisses all over my body. Karter's hands find the band of my underwear, and he looks into my eyes as he pulls my underwear down my legs, and sets it aside. Then slips of my heels.

Suddenly, I feel self-conscious as Karter stares at me hungrily, my cheeks turn red as Karter moves my thighs apart and places soft kisses up my thighs, I moan arching my back. Karter places a soft kiss on my mound making me moan louder, "Karter ah" as Karter gently slides his tongue inside of me making me cry out in pleasure. The tip of his tongue brushes up against my throbbing clit before he pulls it out and gets on top of me.

"You taste so sweet" Karter murrs in my ear, his voice rough and hoarse, I grab him by the neck and push my lips onto his, tasting myself on his tongue. Karter cups my tits making me moan into his mouth deepening the kiss. I move my hands from his neck to his naked chest and down. I was beyond wet and impatient now. I start unbuckling his pants without breaking the kiss and try to pull them down.

Karter chuckles breaking the kiss, "Take it off please" I whine and Karter smirks at me getting off the bed and slips his jeans off. His beautiful toned, sculpted body coming into my view. I sit upon my elbows, biting my lip waiting for him to drop his boxers. Karter slides his boxers off along with his shoes, standing by the edge of the bed in his naked glory. I gulp, my imagination did not do him justice, he was bigger and thicker than I had anticipated. My wetness was dripping down my thighs, I knew it.

I move to the edge of the bed, sitting in between his legs, his hard cock staring at me intimidating me, I carefully place my hands around it ever so gently and start moving them up and down and a grunt escapes Karter's lips. Before I could stop myself, I bring my face to his cock and press a soft kiss on his tip. I lick my lips and open my mouth slowly take as much of it as I can into my mouth. My eyes were on Karter's face, his eyes were shut as he was moaning softly, I take his cock out of my mouth and spit on it and start bobbing my head up and down his length, his cock brushing against my cheeks, touching the back of my throat and then pulling back.

Karter places his hand on my head pushing his cock further into his mouth and I lost all control, "You're so good ah fuck Maria" Karter grunts and I keep bobbing my head up and down feeling him clench inside my mouth as I swirl my tongue around his tip.

"Maria" Karter groans opening his eyes, "I need to be inside of you" It was now his turn to beg. I take his cock out of my mouth, my lips covered in saliva as I lay down on the bed. Karter wastes no time and takes out a condom from his jeans and unwraps the foil and slips it on his length, he was shaking. It was nice seeing the control I had on him. Karter gets in between my legs and splits them apart, he aligns himself at my entrance as we stare into each other's eyes. I grab Karter's face and presses our lips together as I feel him thrust his hips and enter me. I moan into his mouth as he slowly moves around inside of me before pulling out and entering again, this time more roughly. None of my past lovers were as big as him, so it hurt a bit as I felt his cock stretch out my walls. I hold onto the back of Karter's neck as he presses his body onto mine, thrusting his hips harder making both of us moan.

We pull away from the kiss and stare into each other's eyes, "Can't believe I'm inside Maria Reed" Karter jokes and I giggle as I roll my hips against his.

"You're so fucking beautiful," Karter says caressing my cheek and I blush, Karter grabs my ankle and rests it on his shoulder, moving deeper inside of me. I had never felt so stuffed he was touching spots inside of me I didn't know existed. I don't know how much longer I can last.

My eyes roll to the back of my head as Karter brushes against my clit, Karter gently strokes my nipples giving me intense pleasure. I moan, arching my back, pressing my body against his.

"Karter ah oh" I moan as I felt myself on the verge of another earth-shattering orgasm.

"Me too baby" Karter groans, the veins on his neck almost popping out as he slowed down his rhythm and thrust into me with less intensity driving me wild. The gentle strokes were driving me insane, I arch my back as I felt myself not being able to control it.

"ah oh ah fuck" I moan softly as I dig my fingernails into Karter's neck causing him to groan. I bite my lip and close my eyes as I felt like the Earth had stopped spinning, shocks jolt all over my body as I thrust my hips back and forth.

"fuck shit" Karter groans as his thrusts got slower and he stopped, "fuck" Karter groans as he finishes a minute after me. We both stay there, him still inside of me, us holding each other trying to catch our breath.

"I just fucked Maria Reed" an ear-to-ear grin plastered on Karter's face.

"Is that all this was?" I humor him.

"Of course, now I'm out" Karter jokes slowly pulling out of me and he gets up and takes off the used condom and throws it in the bin. I was still lying down catching my breath.

"I can do this forever," Karter says making me smile.

....

I woke up to the sun hitting my face, I stretch feeling my muscles feeling a little sore until memories from last night flash my mind and I bite my lip. I turn around to see Karter on his stomach snoring away. I hear my phone buzz on the side table so I quietly pick it up.

It was 11 am, I had texts from some people, I saw that I had two missed calls from my parents and one unread message. I open the message and it read:

Happy birthday baby, we miss you, sorry we were late we thought you might be busy with your friends and it slipped our mind yesterday. call us when you're free x

I fight the urge to roll my eyes, well you didn't forget about your other child who was also born on the same day, I felt angry. No, I was furious as I felt my blood start to boil. Are they really pretending they didn't call or text because they thought I'd be too preoccupied? So I would blame myself for THEIR wrongdoing. It's what they have done my whole life, never taking any responsibility for my actions, fuck them this is not how-

My thoughts were interrupted by a sexy groggy voice in the background, "Good morning beautiful"

I turn my head to see Karter smiling at me, I smile putting my phone down, "Hi pretty boy" I smile moving closer to him.
