Stay - (A Skyrim Fanfiction)

Forsworn Sex Armor

It was late afternoon as I returned home with a basket full of food. Nelcara had been gone for close to a month, talking to the Greybeards, killing a dragon and probably clearing caves for a Jarl whose guards were too worthless to do it. She had sent a letter a few days ago, saying when she was coming home. In that time, the house had become scarce on food, which was not going to work because the first thing Nelcara always did when she got home was eat and go to sleep. And I couldn't blame her for that.

I placed the basket on the kitchen floor, next to the fireplace, when I heard a noise. I stood, stopped in the kitchen, when I heard it again. Someone was going through a chest. I put my hand on the hilt of my blade as I called out, "Who's there?" It couldn't have been Argis. I had just seen him at the Keep. Whoever it was had no business here and they were about to find that out.

"Your wife" I heard her voice answer from the bedroom.

"Nelcara?" I thought she wasn't suppose to be home until tomorrow.

"Do you have another wife?" her laugh traveling down the hallway. It was good to hear that again. It had been far too quiet with her gone.

I went to greet her and found her sitting on the bed...in forsworn armor. I clinched my fist as blood surged from my head to go to another one.

"Love, were you planning on saying something?" she smirked as I noticed I was still standing there silent.

"You're home early."

"Is that a problem?" she joked as she got up to put her arms around my waist.

"Never" I answered. She hugged me, burying her face in my neck. Her voice was muffled but I heard her "Good. I missed you." I held her against me, returning the embrace. I had missed her as well. She hadn't let go yet, and neither had I. As we stood there, her head braced against my neck, I buried my face in her hair, catching her scent. She always smelled of lavender and burned wood. A strange combination, but it was nice on her.

"You still have the armor" I hadn't seen her in that in quite some time. Not that I minded, but was...pleasantly surprised.

"Of course" she said pulling away to look at me. "I wouldn't dare get rid of it. You like it too much"

"Well, tell me it was at least beneficial in your fights." She had better armor, better robes even. I'd hate to think she fought in a lesser piece simply because she thought I enjoyed it.

"Oh, I didn't put this on until I got home." she said, a devious smirk forming on her face. And that's where my self control faded away. I grabbed her around the waist, pulling her against me. She gasped in surprised. But that was cut off, when I pressed my lips to hers. She replied with biting my lip as we kissed. So, it was going to be that kind of night? Good. I placed my arms under her, lifting her upward as she wrapped her legs around my waist and her arms around my neck.

I placed her onto the bed, pushing her down in the process. She grabbed at the waist of my pants, pulling me closer, while running her fingers under my shirt. I was on top of her, taking her fur top off, exposing her chest. As I leaned down to kiss her she put a hand on my chest, stopping me.

Pulling my shirt off over my head she said, "I like this much better than the first time you attacked me while I was wearing this", a smug grin on her face.

Morning came and the last thing I wanted to do was get up. Nelcara was still asleep, curled up with her back to me. She looked so peaceful and rested with her hair falling all around her. I smiled to myself. That was my strong, beautiful wife, the woman who could take down dragons and make bandits run with fear.

I slowly inched myself away, doing my best to not wake her. But that was a failed attempt. As I sat up, she stirred, and reached out towards me. Finding I wasn't in the same stop she groaned, pulling the sheet tighter to her as she rolled over "Where are you going?" she asked half asleep without opening her eyes.

"Work. Need to get dressed" I answered still half asleep myself as I sat on the edge of the bed.

"It's morning already?" she asked, eyes still closed.

When I told her it was she groaned again in displeasure. She reached out, groping and fumbling the sheets until she found my arm. As she did that the sheet fell way to her hips. It had been the only thing covering her bare body. Now her breast and stomach were exposed. That was worth being up to see. But it was cold, so I lifted the blanket back. She was still holding on to my arm, as tight as she could while still mostly asleep, which wasn't very tight.

"Roll your naked ass back over and stay with me" she tried to say in a commanding voice. As if to soften the command, she finally opened her eyes and gave a tired smile, "Please."

She gave me that look that could convince me to do most anything. If only she'd known it wouldn't take that much convincing. "I'll be late for work." I argued with no real intention or want of winning.

"The Jarl can do without you. I however have need of you." she argued.

I rolled back over and slid under the blankets with her. She curled up next to me, placing her head on my chest as I threw my arms around her waist, our skin pressed together. I traced my hand down her back, feeling her as she let out a peaceful sigh, "I love you"

"I love you too." I closed my eyes as I fell back asleep, knowing I wanted nothing more than to stay here with her.
