| Let me help you tonight |
Summary: It’s Joel’s first night in Jackson after arriving with Ellie, he seeks you out for a favour that you offered, to help him relax.
No smut sorry. Bit of nakedness, talk of Joel’s dick and readers boobs. :D Thinking a part two?
You two had met briefly at the power plant, you threatened his life before being told he was actually your brother in law. Tommy and your sister, Maria brought you to together. You instantly liked him, you didn’t know what it was. After spending a few hours with Tommy and his new Sister in laws, you and Maria, he and Ellie had to head to Colorado. “If you come to Jackson, I want you to come find me Joel, okay?” He was taken aback. Was that an “invitation” or am I reading too much into this. The thing was, he didn’t want romance, he never really had time to grieve over Tess. She died and then it was a year of travelling with a teenage girl. But here you were. At her door.
He arrived at Jackson a few hours ago, showered, ate, talked to Tommy to get his bearings. Then casually asked about you, “just thought I’d drop by to say I’m here. Ellie’s asleep so she’s ok.” Tommy grinned, “yeah erm, from those doors turn left, go down three streets, turn right and it’s a White House, black door.
And now here you are, it was late, nearing eleven. On the walk over here he didn’t really think about what he was gonna do or say. Hi it’s me, what’s up? Hi, you said to come find you well here I am.
To stop himself second guessing he knocked on your door, hearing a faint, just a minute from inside, his hands started to sweat.
You opened the door, gasping at his giant figure appearing before you, “Joel! You made it here!” You couldn’t help but dive into him for a hug. “I don’t care if you’re not a huggy person, so just, get over it.” Shockingly he hugged you back, his thick arms wrapping around you tightly. “Do whatever you gotta do, cause I need a favour, darlin.”
You pull away, already knowing what he’s gonna ask of you. You keep him at arms length, “is it the service I offered, cause ya know, your first night an all, cause my offer still stands.” He plays with the hair resting on your shoulder, “yup, if the offer still stands.” You move aside to let him in, he gives your hip a soft pinch as he strolls past. You hardly knew the man, but this all felt just so easy, but you knew he felt something too. You took him for a man who doesn’t play games, hasn’t got the time or patience for it. Just a man who knows what he wants.
You both stand at the bottom of the stairs, “do you want a drink bringing up with us? Got whiskey, beer, it’s not great but it’ll give you a buzz, might help you sleep.” Joel rubs the back of his neck nervously, “I’ll have a whiskey please, darlin.” You send him upstairs, and tell him your room is down the hall second door on the right, it’s what he expected from his few hours with you, what he learned. Records everywhere, random artwork he doesn’t know if you painted them but he’ll ask later, a few trinkets here and there a vanity table and your bed.
You step into the room, placing the drinks down on your night stand looking over your shoulder at him. “Joel, you look so nervous, we’re not doing anything wrong or weird. It’s just what you need.” You motion him to come to you, reaching your hands out for his. “You’d be surprised how many men want this when they get here, travelling for so long, just needing a woman’s touch, so you’re not alone, don’t think it’s weird or anything.”
He leans in for a hug, inhaling your hair, then moving his mouth to yours. His hands start to move down, grabbing hold of your shirt and moves it up. You pull away breaking the kiss, “you want me naked, for this?” Still not talking, just a nod. You were gonna ask if he wanted to undress you but before any words came out, your shirt is off and he’s now starting on your pants. Then your bra and panties follow. He stands there taking in all your form, and not just staring at the obvious.
“Fuckin hell” he mutters under his breath.
“Im gonna take that as a compliment, Miller.”
“Take it as you want, I feel like I’m gonna have a heart attack. Goddamn they’re are beautiful.”
It’s now your turn to go in for a hug, let just him feel a woman’s naked body against him. Just for a minute. You whisper against his ear, “can you be naked too? And let me undress you?”
With a low groan, from his chest, a deep “okay” leaves his lips.
“Just let me take care of you Joel and next time, especially next time, we’ll talk about other things we can do.” Off comes his shirt, already unbuttoned, then pulling up his t shirt, you go wide eyed at his form. Jesus Christ. It’s beautiful. Salt and pepper chest hair, soft belly, pecks and biceps you just wanna bite into. You slowly motion down his pants, noticing a damp patch on his boxers. Definitely taking that as a compliment, you stand back up to ask, “want these off? Or that too much?” Obviously ogling down at his crotch with a knowing smile.
“No take them off.” Finally, a sentence, small but still, you oblige.
Wide eyed at his body, shocked at his dick, pulling down his boxers, his stiff cock bouncing against his stomach.
“Fuckin hell-Jesus Christ, Joel-how the hell do you walk around with that thing?”
For the first time of the night, he laughs, genuinely laughs. “It’s a lot to take I know, but luckily for you though, that’s for next time, lie down, darlin.” Obliging, you lie down and he walks around to the other side, and slides in behind you, pulling you in, fitting against him perfectly, he inhales your scent and within minutes, he’s gone. Every now and he mumbles something, “can’t leave me-Sarah-no baby-don’t leave”. It broke your heart.
This was never meant to be sexual. Joel told you at the plant about Tess, and how he misses a warm body next to his and how he never grieved the loss. You told him a few men had asked you to share a bed with them. “The first night is always the hardest. You’re completely safe but you just don’t feel it. Sometimes just sleeping next to someone can help, and that’s where I come in.” you said. “Come and find me if you come back to Jackson.”
As you lay there engrossed in his warmth, you’re gently reminded with a nudge against your butt, of his impressive dick. And you were you saying, next time. You eye roll to yourself. Girl, you got your work cut out for you. Well, whatever Joel wants, he deserves it.
