When I wake up the next morning, it is with a renewed sense of purpose, there was nothing I could do about his father, but I could definitely lift up his spirits. He wasn’t in bed when my eyes peeled open, and there was no noise from the tea corner, so I suspect he was at the gym. Good, I wanted to join him there, I bet he would love it.My ring glistened, caught in the morning sun, distracting me from going in search of him, I hold the ringed finger to my chest, biting my lip so I don’t squeal, although all I want to do is scream my head off, I got collared, well, ringed, but it was the same thing. I had dreams about this day for so long, and now it was here, and it was beautiful.The thrill of my phone wiped the smile off my face, and the caller ID turned the confused frown into an annoyed glare. I pick it up though, since I was still obliged to pick calls from my agency.“Rachel Greene speaking.” I didn’t mean to sound monotone, but they will get what I give.“You haven’t been an
“Technicalities.” Clay muttered under his breath as he threw the stack of papers he was reading against the table.We sat around the huge conference table we sometimes used for script reading, if the company was feeling extra generous. Greg, the board of directors, and Jerry were on one side, the three of us n the other. “You are lucky you a lawyer to read through your first contract.” Clay tells me the same thing the lawyer I gave back when I was new to the industry.My only friend from college then, and I wouldn’t call him a friend since we weren’t so close, but he was always there when I needed him, and then disappeared once more. He forced me to get a lawyer look through them, I refused, because I couldn’t afford one, and he scraped together some money for me, and while the lawyer was cheap, he made sure I wasn’t cheated. “I will think about re signing with them anyway.”“What? Think about it? What is there to think about? It is either a yes or a no.” Jerry says, his ugly face
“Would both of you mind joining us for dinner? I already asked Joanne, she said to ask you.” I say when I realize they were both waiting for me to talk, I made sure every trace of venom in my voice was gone before speaking, if they didn’t hear me talking to Hank, they wouldn’t tell the difference. Clay sighed, Abed’s brows fly up in question.“There was this really huge, tasty looking salmon back home.”“Fine. You got me there.” he turned to Abed with a triumphant smirk, “I guess I will be eating of the salmon.”Abed looked away from him friend and instead walked up to my side of the car, opening the door for me, I look between them, Abed’s unreadable expression, Clay’s triumphant one, I think the salmon was not for them. “Giving them the salmon was a wrong move huh?” I ask once he starts driving, he kissed the top of my head, but he stays silent.His eyes flicker to the rear view mirror, he must see Clay’s car steadily behind us, he said Joanne would meet us there, since both of th
Turns out blackening out is easier in the movies, and you only get a bump for trying in real life, oh and embarrassment, I couldn’t look any of them in the face even as they helped me up, instead I chuckled the entire time, even when they asked if I was okay. Joanne on the other hand, seemed to remember it was a secret between both of us, and she looked at me sheepishly, clamping her mouth shut. At least there won’t be anymore falling. “You sure you’re okay?” Abed asks again, his eyes inspecting me for any bruise. I found it sweet but it was difficult to lie when someone was peering at you like that.“What did you want to find out though, something about Abed’s...” Clay asks, the under of my right eye twitches, I cannot believe he was still asking that. Now Abed watched me with interest, wanting to know what I meant as well, dang it, all that fall for nothing.I chuckle nervously, “Piercings. I like Joanne’s own and wanted to know his thoughts on them, but I wasn’t sure I could han
Our mouths meet in a slow kiss, at first only my mouth worked against his, moving and molding against his plump mouth, he starts to kiss me back, he must understand what I was trying to say. His hand finds my own, our fingers intertwine and lock in place somewhere by his side, he flipped our positions again, and I was underneath him again, his mouth doesn’t leave mine once, neither does he hurry the kiss along, it was the softest, and sweetest kiss of my life. Although, it doesn’t stop it from setting my body ablaze with lust and want, I was craving him in a way that ached. He must be feeling the same since he tugged on my shirt, and in one sweeping motion, the shirt was off my body. My eyes flutter open, I find him staring down at my breasts, I refuse the urge to hide away, instead I watch him, watch me, his eyes were drinking me up greedily. “They are so beautiful, even better in real life.” he whispers,My brows draw together in confusion, wondering what he meant by in real li
“I was really looking forward to seeing you climb a horse.”From my peripheral view, I watch as Clay climb up the stairs, in a relaxed white shirt and jeans, his hair tousled, he didn’t look like a lawyer, or a guest, he had a lazy smile on his face, the same one girls used to fawn over back in college, and even now. “Yes, it is quite unfortunate the horses have to take their scheduled shots today.” I say, my fingers resuming their work on the fruits, I was making cut up fruits for her, that would have been my excuse if the vet didn’t arrive in time. Clay chuckled, he knew of my dislike for heights, especially moving heights, thankfully, he hasn’t said anything to Rachel yet.“How does she have so much energy?” he asked in an awe filled voice as he watched Rachel running around with the horses. My own eyes return to her and stay with her, like they had been doing before Clay interrupted. She had a huge smile on her face as she ran with the horses, the wind carrying the beautiful s
Our eyes met twice and each time, my body would not stop lighting up, I was clearly avoiding him, but the only thing my body wanted to do was jump into bed with him, the way he held me, the way he caressed my hair as I came, the way he stiffened against me when he came, I wanted all of it again. So why was I so shy around him? I have been out here with the horses for hours simply because I was too shy to look him in the face. Was this how it usually went? Being shy after the most amazing sex I ever had? “At some point you will have to go back inside the house.” Joanne says with an exasperated sigh, she was running with us earlier, but she quit not too long after, in her words, “I don’t last on top either, don’t make me do this cardio shit again.”Honestly, I was exhausted, and sticky, I wanted water, a cool bath, him... no, not him, and rest, preferably with him. “Besides I am hungry, Abed didn’t make any food because you didn’t eat, can you come back so we can eat actual food?”
I had never done this before, it was something I really, really, wanted to try out, and Abed would know, since he followed my page ever so diligently. So when I drop to my knees, between his legs, he took in a sharp breath, his dark eyes on me. I swallowed thickly, my fingers shook with anticipation when I bring it up to his crotch, folding and flexing the fingers so they stopped their shaking. He sucked in a breath when I cupped him through his pants. Small currents still ran down my body when my thighs rubbed together, my clit was still very sensitive, and my juices ran down my legs, he made me feel that good, I wanted to return the favor, and put into practice all that I had seen on videos. He was huge in my hand, huge and heavy, my fingers trace the slope, usually, I would be impatient, but I wanted to take this slow. Looking up at him, his teeth were clenched, his fingers massaging my scalp, he doesn’t seem like he was in a hurry either. I return my eyes to the scene in fro
We ended up fucking all night, I had only read that in books, I had no idea that it could happen in real life, and that it would happen to me. Abed wasn’t tired, neither was I, every time we came it seemed like we craved the other even more. Our bodies sleeked in sweat and mixed with our fluids, we continued to explore each other’s bodies. Naked and tangled in his arms, under the sheets, I realize this was the life I wanted for myself, sleeping next to the man I love, perfectly content. His hands tighten around my waist, I chuckle quietly, he was so adorable. “What are you laughing at?” he says in the most sexy morning voice I had ever heard. It left me shivering. I look at his face and he had a brow raised in question.“Again?”I felt my face redden, and I bury it in the crook of his neck, “I always want you.” I murmur, taking in his scent, it was a mix of various scents, and it was good that I bury my nose there. He picks up my hand, guides it downwards, in between his nak
My new routine was easy, I had breakfast at Big daddy’s, visit some place I had never been, even if I grew up here, I was like a tourist, eager and excited for whatever the new day had to offer in a city as big as this. I had lunch wherever the locals said was good, and it was good, a few people recognized me, and I saw my pictures on the internet at the end of the day, I trained myself to never look at the comments, I was trying to live for me after all. And for dinner, I heated up a portion of Abed’s meals, and that was the highlight of my day, no matter what scenery I had seen earlier, nothing compared to when I sat down alone with the meal he had prepared for me. An ache wrapped around my heart, I was missing him terribly, but I didn’t want to resent him, so I needed the time to heal properly. Joanne often times came over, and tonight, I was also expecting her, I had set out wine I hand picked at the winery I visited earlier today, and two glasses, I had already eaten and sho
My entire body stiffened when her hand grabbed at the elbow of my shirt, I pause in my steps, fighting the urge to turn around and beg to be in her life, knowing fully well I didn’t deserve it. “Can you wait for me? Until I am ready.” she whispers, I could feel all her emotions from just a few words, the hurt, the desperation, the love.Of course I would wait, I waited years to see her, years to tell her I loved her, years to hold her in my arms, waiting would be too much mercy for me. Turning slowly, I find her tear streaked face staring at her feet, her sniffles wracking her entire body. Guilt pushed through my body, with my thumb hooked under her face, gently, I make her face me, her lips quivered as she stared at me. “I will wait, take whatever time you need, I will be waiting.” I tell her honestly as I wiped the tears from her face. She smiles, her eyes brightening and my lungs expelled all the air it had been holding. “No matter how long?”“It doesn’t matter to me, I will b
We end up staying awake most of the night, clinging to each other, talking and laughing about the most useless of things, the world beyond the locked doors of the short let, along with all of our issues could wait, we would face them in the morning, tonight, we were going to pretend we were okay. “I don’t think I can fight the sleep any longer.” I stifle a third yawn in the last two minutes. I would beat up myself for falling asleep now, but my eyelids were heavy, my bones weary from all our activities from earlier. “It’s okay, go to sleep my love.”Even in my sleepy haze I hear him, and it makes me feel good, the words I didn’t realize would mean so much to me, the words I wasn’t sure I would hear again. “Good night my love, I love you.”I feel his lips pressed against my forehead just as I drifted off to sleep, and in my dreams this time, I am at a crossroad, literally. Without opening my eyes, my hands reach out on the bed, expecting to hit the warmth of his body, but the space
We stay like that for a while, him collapsed beside me, breathing hard, my heart worked fast, thumping and slamming furiously, did he say..? did I hear him right? Was I perhaps imagining things? I reach out as subtly as I could, pinching myself, it hurt, I was neither dreaming or imagining things, this was real. The silence pressed around us, it was obvious both of us heard the words, but what if I was the one who uttered them? Shit, shit, shit, I shut my eyes, wondering how I was going to undo it. I had confessed my feelings when I was supposed to see him out, that was how one night stands worked right? “Rachel... I didn’t say it so you could say it back to me.”His voice and words startle me, so he said it then, I had managed to keep my dignity, that was good... wait, he said he loved me? I turn to face him sharply, he was staring at me, his eyes so intense that I have to swallow. “You said that?” My voice comes out as a shocked whisper, he raised a brow in question, then he chuc
Flustered was an understatement of how I was feeling, my legs shook, my nerves jumped in excitement. I was still riding waves of the orgasms that washed over me and the ones that were promised. I realize only now that he stopped because of the constant knocking on the bathroom door, the voices on the other end say something about getting the spare key. Abed’s fingers work expertly as he arranges my skirt back and top back in place, he gives me the smile I have come to realize was reserved for just me as he kissed my forehead and pushed me into a bathroom stall. “Stay here until you hear me leave.” he whispers, his mouth dangerously close to mine, I can only nod, I was afraid I would moan if I tried to speak. Within a minute the door was unlocked and I hear the others speaking to him, but his only response is the sound of his footfall as he walked away. I wait until it is silent before walking out of the stall. My body still buzzing with unspent energy, I needed him like crazy. “Th
With our mouths still locked, our feet moved, one hand around my waist, the other at the back of my head. My body roared to life, pulsing with different kinds of emotions as we kissed. Oh how much I missed this, how much I missed him. My back pressed against a door, and his hand slipped from my waist to lock the door behind us, returning to my waist, his hand slips underneath the short skirt, I shiver against him as his familiar hands squeezed and molded my ass. “Ohhh...” I murmur into his mouth, he groaned slightly in response, his hand tugging my hair backward, his tongue sweeps into my mouth, even with my eyes closed I felt it roll backwards. My hands roam the expanse of his hard back, the familiar ridges under my finger tips, even under his clothes I could feel them, the dip in and out, I longed to feel it directly under my finger tips. My eyes flew open when I felt myself being lifted, my ass hitting the cool sink of the bathroom, I meet his eyes, both of us out of breath,
The lone flower followed me all the way to the clothes store, and I got new clothes for the art museum, I had shot a quick text to Connor, asking him if he was free to meet today, his reply could not have been quicker, he said yes, asked for the time and where he should pick me up from. Smiling to myself as I picked out my clothes, I hoped he was watching, so I put on a performance of a life time, humming and giggling to myself when I look at my phone, like a girl would if she was texting someone she was interested in. By them time I returned home, I had two lone... well, not alone anymore, sunflowers, I tuck them into the vase, locking the doors behind me. I still had time to kill before the time I had agreed to meet him, so I dive into the book I had been reading the other day, and even with the thought that I was alone and there was nobody to peek over my shoulder and see what dirty things I was reading, my cheeks flamed. Those kinds of things that were explicitly described in th
Clutching the flowers tightly, I followed the path the child had shown me, my head swiveling in all directions for a glimpse of him, my feet slamming on the ground as I chased his scent, there was no sight of his car, and definitely no sight of him, the only things I was left with were the sunflowers and his scent that was fast fading. That was yesterday, but I haven’t stopped looking, I had put the flowers in water and placed the vase I had found by the window for the plant to get sunlight, not so that he miraculously turned up here and knew where I was staying by the flowers he had given to me. Going for a quick run to clear my head this morning, I asked myself the big questions, did I miss him? I did, but it doesn’t make what he did hurt any less. My parents I thought would come running when they saw me on the big screen, they never did, even with the news of me being orphan going around like wild fire, they never showed, and to be very honest, I waited with baited breath just as
