Forever Yours

Chapter 39: Sev's Fortieth

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Christmas had been chaotic between Septimus and Helena frantically studying and finishing their Christmas break projects; and Serenity, who was now on the move more than ever between crawling and walking.

Katherine had hosted Christmas day dinner this year; preparing a traditional British holiday meal for the group of nine. Roasted goose served with stuffing, gravy and forcemeat; redcurrant jelly adorned the table, as the currants bush had been plentiful during the summer months; wonderful warmed bread sauce and boiled potatoes; steamed Brussels sprouts and parsnips; and of course, Christmas pudding and minced pies with brandy butter for dessert.

But that night, as well as all the others, had passed by all too fast; and before they knew it, Septimus was back to school.

And with the holidays far behind them, Katherine finished up her plans for the next big event.

"Good morning," Katherine murmured into Severus' pale chest. Light was just beginning to stream in through the frosted eastern windows of the master bedroom. It was the morning of the ninth of January; the morning of Severus' fortieth birthday to be precise. "Happy birthday, love."

A non-coherent grunt left Severus' throat as he pulled Katherine's form further into his side. The action caused Katherine to chuckle a bit, before planting a delicate kiss on the underside of his jaw.

"Come now Sev," Katherine purred lightly. "Let's get up and start the day."

"I rather stay here in bed with you all day," Severus yawned, still refusing to open his eyes.

"But if we do that, you will not get your gift," she teased, trying to pull out of his grasp. But as soon as Katherine rolled to her opposite side, Severus grabbed her from behind and pinned her body to his front.

"I believe my birthday gift is right here," he hummed into her ear, as he ran a pale hand down the front of her naked torso and dipped a finger in-between her folds.

"Not much of a gift, since you can get it anytime you want," she groaned, as his long digits plunged further into her moistening quim.

"That's what makes it even better than a gift," Severus chuckled. He removed his fingers causing Katherine to whimper in protest, but not for too long. Swiftly, he raised her leg over his hip and pressed his hard member into her entrance.

Katherine gasped heavily as Severus fully buried himself into her velvet sleeve. As soon as he felt her relax around him, he began to thrust with abandonment. As tight as her core was, he knew neither of them would last long. And he was right, within a matter of a few minutes, Katherine's walls crashed down around him, sending him over the edge as well.

Letting her leg slip down from his hip, Severus clutched Katherine securely in his arms. His heart raced wildly in his chest and his breath came out in ragged shutters. A satisfied smirk graced his lips, as Katherine groaned in protest once more, as his flaccid length slid out of her and settled between her milky thighs.

Just as his body began to calm, Katherine stirred and shifted herself into a sitting position. With drooping eyelids, Severus glanced up at his wife, noting the mischievous smile upon her lips. He frowned slightly at the look; even more so when he noticed the twinkle in those damned Dumbledore blue eyes.
