Sexy Santa by Pauline
Set towards end of
fourth season – a bit of fun for Christmas.
After playing Santa at the annual NIMR children’s
party, Lee was looking forward to shedding the hot Santa suit and padding, and
getting into a shower. He’d brought his and Sophie’s clothes for the evening,
so that he would not have to drive back to the lighthouse to change. Nelson had let them have the use of one of
the guest bungalows for the night.
He used the men’s room to change out of the Santa suit
and into sweats for the short drive to the bungalow. The sun was going down and the cool evening
air was refreshing as he walked to his car.
He’d left the top down on the Cobra and it felt good to have the wind
tussle his dark hair, after wearing the beard and hood.
Arriving at the bungalow, he opened the trunk and took
out the garment bags, containing his tux and Sophie’s evening gown; he was
looking forward to seeing her in the dress- and out of it. He took the things inside, and after laying
them on the bed, headed for the shower.
Stepping into the shower, he squeezed shower gel into
his palm and lathered it over his skin.
Tipping his head back, he splashed water over his face and lathered
shampoo into his hair, before ducking his head under the spray to rinse it off.
Taking longer than usual, he enjoyed the hot water, turning to let it massage
his shoulders and back.
Turning off the water, he stepped out of the shower
and grabbed a towel from the rail to dry off before slipping on the robe he’d
hung on the back of the door. Fastening the robe, he put his watch back on and
headed out to the bedroom. He was
thirsty and although there would be a buffet at the party tonight, he needed a
snack to keep him going and Sophie would probably be hungry.

Sophie had her partner drop her at the institute and
walked the short distance to the guest bungalow. It had been a
hectic day with the usual craziness that this time of year brought. But she
still loved Christmas and had enjoyed choosing the trees for the lighthouse
with Lee, they would decorate them together.
Right now she was looking forward to a soak in the tub and maybe a
massage from Lee. Her pulse leapt at the thought of his large, but gentle
hands. And who knew what might come
later. She was so in lust with him. They
had set the date June and next Christmas she would be Mrs Crane.
She smiled as she saw the Cobra parked under the
carport.
The bungalow
had a cool, modern feel with a vaulted ceiling in the lounge, white walls and a
polished wooden floor. A cream leather
suite was arranged around a large rug in the centre of the room. A beautiful seascape hung on one wall. Double
glass doors led out to a deck at the back. A Christmas tree in one corner
sparkled in a kaleidoscope of colours.
“Lee?”
“In the bedroom,” he called out in reply.
The sight of Lee sitting on the bed, wearing only
leopard print briefs and a robe, which was open, his hair was still damp and
curling, almost took her breath away - he looked so sexy.
“Hey, how was Santa?”
Lee laughed, pausing in pulling on his socks. “Well, I
didn’t get peed on, so I guess I was a success.” He pulled her down onto his
lap. “And what do you want for
Christmas?” he asked playfully, his honey gold eyes sparkling with
mischief.
“You’re all I want for Christmas.” Suddenly she wanted
to get naked, he have those long elegant fingers tormenting her. He smelled
delicious, of musk, vanilla and a hint of citrus.
He tilted her face into a kiss. She wanted more, much more. She wrapped her
arms around his neck and cupped the back of his head. “Owww...Lee. I want you. ”She
moved her hand down, but he grabbed her wrist.
“I think we’d better continue this later, or we will
never make it to the party, and the Admiral would not be pleased.”
“Can’t we just make it a quickie?”
“Sweetheart, I don’t want a quickie, I want to take my
time and savour every inch of you.”
Reluctantly Sophie slid off his lap. “Are you sure you
won’t join me in the tub?”
“As tempting as that idea is, I don’t think it would
be a good idea.” He reached for the other sock. “Are you hungry? I could make
us a sandwich.”
Hungry for you, she thought silently. “Have you forgotten about the buffet? A girl
has to watch her figure.”
“Looks fine from here.”
She smiled and
headed for the bathroom before temptation got the better of her.

The institute conference hall ceiling had been draped
in white silk, studded with silver stars.
A glitter ball hung from the centre of the ceiling, turning slowly in a
spotlight. Tables were arranged around
the perimeter of the dance floor, with a large buffet table at one end. The
double entrance doors stood open, flanked by two large Christmas trees
Lee and Sophie made a handsome couple, Lee in his tux
and a white dress shirt and Sophie in a fit and flair red gown, the bodice
covered in sequins.
Chip and
Lindsey entered behind them. “Hey, Lee.”
“Hi Chip, Lindsey.” Lee smiled in greeting.
“Sophie, may I say you look ravishing,” Chip
complimented.
“Why thank you, Chip.
You’re looking dashing yourself.” Sophie returned the smile. As the Captain’s date, she felt that she had
to make a special effort with her appearance.
“You’d look good in
anything,” Lee told her, slipping a possessive arm around her waist. “And you look lovely to Lindsey.”
Lindsey was tall and slim like her father, she was
wearing an emerald green V necked, crushed jacquard gown, ruched under the
bust. Chip was wearing black pants, a black jacquard shirt with silk tie and a
white dinner jacket.
“Would you ladies like a glass of champagne?” Chip
offered.
“I’d love one, thank you,” Sophie replied.
“I’ll be right back.
Lee, why don’t you grab a table?”

As the evening passed, Lee danced with several of the
female employees, including Angie and Tisha, while Sophie mingled and also
danced with several people, including the Admiral. When the music stopped, he led her from the
dance floor.
“Sophie, my dear – I have a proposition for you.”
“Oh?” Sophie wondered what he had in mind.
“I’d like to offer you a position with the institute,
as a liaison officer. You would work regular hours and you and Lee would have
more time together. And don’t tell Lee,
but he needs someone to keep an eye on him away from the institute.”
Sophie felt a hand on her arm. “What are you two plotting?” Lee asked,
appearing at her side.
“The Admiral just offered me a job.”
“Great, are you going to accept?”
Sophie nodded. “Yes.
Thank you, Admiral, I accept your offer.”
“Good. We can
discuss the details later. Now I will leave you two to enjoy the rest of the
evening.”
Lee took her hand. “I don’t know about you, but I
could use some air.”
“Do you think the Admiral would mind if we slipped
away?” Lee looked so delicious; she wanted him out of that tux and in bed.
Lee smiled, “I think I have done my duty for this
year. Come on, let’s go.”

The site of her in that red dress had been driving him
crazy all evening and he was glad to finally have her all to himself. With the
door of the bungalow closed firmly and locked behind them, he slipped an arm
around her waist and pulled her against him. “You look ravishing in that
dress.”
“You don’t look so bad yourself, Captain.”
Lee nuzzled her neck while moving one hand to the zip
and drawing it down her back, “But it has to come off.”
“Why captain, are you trying to seduce me,” she teased
playfully.
“Umm, is it working?” He eased the dress off her
shoulders and let it fall to the floor.
Sophie lifted her face to meet his kiss. Wrapping her arms around his neck, she
yielded against him. She tasted delicious, her perfume was seductive and
intoxicating, a mixture of roses and jasmine with a hint of musk, fuelling heat
in his groin. He’d been waiting all
evening for this; he couldn’t get enough of her.
“Ummm, take me to bed.” She breathed breathlessly.
Lee picked her up and carried her to the bedroom,
placing her gently on the bed.

Lee woke with Sophie snuggled beside him. He stretched
languidly and sighed. It was Christmas Eve morning and he was tempted to stay
here beside her. His body stirred at the
memory of the previous night. He’d never
felt this way about any woman before, she was amazing; sexy, intelligent, fun
loving, passionate, tenacious and was not afraid to take the lead in their sex
life. He was actually thinking of
resigning from ONI once they were married.
But for now, duty called and he had to put in an
appearance at the institute, at least for a few hours. Reluctantly he slipped
out of bed, careful not to wake Sophie.
Smiling to himself, he headed for the bathroom; there was tonight to
look forward to and he had a surprise planned.

Sophie sat in the kitchen, nibbling on a cookie while
a cup of coffee cooled in front of her.
She couldn’t wait for Lee to get back, she wanted to go home, trim the
tree and then later... She spent as much
at the lighthouse as she did at her apartment. She’d been lucky to get the
holiday off. At least next year things
should be easier. She wondered what her
role at the institute would involve.
She had never looked forward to Christmas so much and
to think that she had almost thrown it all away when she had told Lee it was
over after, his indiscretion with another woman.*Thank
heavens Lee had ignored her wishes that he not call her. That year had turned
out to be the best Christmas, and she was determined that this year would be
even better.
She couldn’t
help feeling guilty at keeping Lee from spending Christmas with his mother, but
he had insisted that they spend Christmas together this year. He’d told her
that there would be other years when they could spend the holiday in Rhode
Island.
Her only reservation was that she wished she could
persuade Lee to resign from ONI. She worried that one day he would not make it
back from one of those assignments. His job as Seaview’s captain was hazardous
enough, especially as Lee insisted on taking the risks himself. She knew that he frequently drove Chip and
the Admiral crazy with some of the stunts he pulled, but she accepted that he
would never change, it was who he was, and she loved him.
Finishing the cookie she picked up the cup poured it
down the sink. Lee should be here soon
and she needed to be ready to leave.

Lee had suggested that they stop for lunch on the way,
but Sophie had wanted to go straight home and start their Christmas. She’d heated some soup and made grilled
cheese and ham sandwiches while Lee had tested the tree lights. After they had eaten, they decorated both
trees, one in the lounge and the other in the tower room. Sophie hung the last strand of silver tinsel
on the tree and stepped back, smiling at Lee.
“Hold on,” Lee turned off the main lights, leaving
just the tree lights twinkling.
“It’s beautiful,” Sophie met his gaze. He moved closer and slipped an arm around her
shoulder. Placing her arm around his waist, she snuggled closer, enjoying being
near to him. They stood in the darkened
tower room with the tree lights reflecting in the tall glass windows. “Maybe we
should install a sofa-bed in here. It
would be romantic sleeping out here, with the sea and the sky.” She suggested.
“Now why didn’t I think of that?” He gave her a
sultry, under the lashes look. “We could always...err...make out under the tree,”
he grinned wickedly.
“How can I resist an invitation like that?”
“Hold that thought,” Lee grabbed the cushions from the
two couches and threw them down near the tree.
They both quickly shed their clothes and Sophie
inclined into the nest of cushions. Lee
knelt at her feet.
“I’m going to make love to all of you,” he took her
right foot and gently kneading the sole, slowly moving to the ankle. His long fingers worked their way up her
leg. Sophie shivered with excitement and
anticipation as they moved higher. But before he reached her intimate places,
he stopped and reached for the other foot.
“Lee, please!”
“Shhh,” he smiled. Again he
leisurely worked his way up her leg, trailing his fingers over her calves and
knee, to her thigh.
Sophie reached for him, but he caught her hand.“No touching.”
Again he bypassed where she wanted him to touch her,
instead moving to straddle her, moving his hands along her ribs to her breasts.
Her body tightened as he took her breasts in his hands, squeezing gently. Her nipples peaked at his touch and she gave
a soft moan.
“I want you.”
Lee lowered his head to kiss her and she reached up,
wrapping her arms around his neck. He
moved down to suck one nipple into his mouth; ripples of pleasure pulsed through her, spreading heat through her body. Her
legs parted, she desperately wanted him inside her. She bucked under him.
“Lee...”
While his mouth still lavished attention on her
breast, he moved a hand down, parting her and slipping a finger inside. Her insides gripped his finger eagerly.
“You want this?”
“Yes, more please.” She could hardly breathe, her
heart was racing, and every nerve in her body seemed to short circuit.
Another finger stretched her open
,pressing deeper until they found her centre. She cried out, losing
control as his probing fingers brought her to the edge.
“Owww...please,” she moaned, breathlessly.
Over and over is fingers nudged against her sensitive
nub, while his teeth grazed her nipple, sending jolts of electric to her core.
When his finger circled her centre, it tipped her over the edge while her body
arched in climax.
Lee turned onto his side and held her against him
while she recovered her senses. “Are you
okay?”
“Ummm...what about you? You didn’t...?”
Lee smiled. “That was just the appetiser; I’ve
something planned for the main event.”

While Sophie was in the shower, Lee finished the last
touches to the bedroom, swapping out the lamp bulb for a soft, candle
bulb. Angie and Lindsey had done a great
job with the room. The black bed set had
been replaced with a red quilt cover and matching pillow shams, with a white
snowflake design. A vase of red roses
stood on the bedside table and there was even a Christmas tree in one corner.
He would never have had time to do all this himself, and he wanted to surprise
Sophie. So Angie and Lindsey had offered to come over while Sophie was still at
the bungalow. This was going to be the best Christmas.
After turning on the Christmas tree lights, he turned
off the main lights and debated whether to close the shutters on the windows,
but there were no neighbours to observe them. The soft echo of the ocean and
the warm sea breeze only served to enhance the romantic atmosphere. Hearing the bathroom door, he shrugged out of
his robe, leaving just the red, fur trimmed Santa boxers he wore underneath –
another surprise for Sophie.
Although in the past, he had his share of lady
friends, he’d always been a little conservative, shy even. Not that he would
ever let on to Chip. But the one thing
that his assignation with *Elizabeth had shown him was that there was more to
sex than the physical act. He loved
Sophie, and he wanted her to feel cherished. His own pleasure came second to
hers.
“Wow, Lee...how...when?” Sophie asked as she padded into the room,
wearing only a red baby-doll, trimmed with white fur.
His body throbbed at the sight of her. “Santa’s elves
have been busy” he answered huskily.
“What about my sexy Santa, are you ready for the main
event?”
He pulled her against him. “Ready, willing and...”
“Definitely able,” she teased, gently grasping his
arousal through the material of his boxers.
Lee groaned.
She grinned mischievously. “I like getting you hot and
hard.”She gave him a gently squeeze.
“You’re driving me crazy,” he captured her wrist. “You
can play later; right now I want you in bed.”
“Yes, please.”
End.
